Gu Guangming's View on Football

In the mid-1980s, Gu Guangming at his peak was kicked off by Beijing team defender Bi Sheng. It is entirely possible to return to the national team after recovering, but he has a thorough understanding of China football. He believes that even if he returns to the national team, his career will not be greatly improved. More importantly, he is still young, and he wants to go to the outside world to see why people's football is so good. At that time, he decisively applied to immigrate to Germany and enrolled in the coach department of the famous Cologne Institute of Physical Education.

From these aspects, Gu Zi has always shown a higher vision than other China players. He saw the general trend of football in China and the short-lived youth of football players. Therefore, the decision to emigrate completely changed his life trajectory and successfully found a sustainable direction for himself.

"At that time, immigration was not an easy task. After the newspaper went up, it was not approved. They are afraid that I will never come back to defect. I rode my bike to the Civil Affairs Bureau again and again, and kept grinding it every day. My jeans are also worn by my bike. Finally, I found Wang Pingshan, the provincial leader at that time, and solved this problem. " Gu Zi said that he showed me how big the hole in jeans was.

In Germany, Gu Guangming joined a local second-division team as a main striker, learning while playing football, and won the love of German fans with his excellent skills. According to him, as long as you talk about China football in Germany, almost all fans will blurt out: "Gu, Gu" (his German name), which shows the popularity.

After German graduation, Gu Guangming is still obsessed with China football. Like most international students, he returned to China with confidence and was determined to bring back the advanced football knowledge and ideas he had learned abroad. So China had its first foreign coach, schlappner, and since then, the foreign coach has been in charge of China football. In the middle of the 20 12/ 13 season, Gu Zi personally became the head coach of FC Frankfurt JQ, the first Bundesliga team controlled by 100% China people, and led the team out of the unfavorable predicament at the beginning of the league.

In addition to advocating "Westernization Movement", Gu Zi also attaches great importance to football training for young people, considering it as important as "Westernization Movement". Therefore, in Sanshui, there is his Gu Guangming youth football training base. Many times, as long as he has time, he will personally lead the students to train. He is also fully prepared to open another football school in Guangzhou, bringing together the national elite of children's football and forming a three-level echelon of teenagers, youths and adults. From the long-term planning point of view, owning a professional football club is what Gu Zi pursues.

"I always firmly believe that China people can't play football worse than others, and backwardness is only temporary. As long as it develops properly, China football can definitely occupy a place in the world. "
