Chapter 3586

The foam of beer was blown like a tea, and the mug of his upper lip was filled with white foam.

"Do you think the development of football will be challenged by the times?" Zhuo Yang asked him.

Grandpa didn't erase his white beard and said like Santa Claus: "in fact, football has been challenged by the times since its birth."

Zhuo Yang shook his head: "but football is still the first sport."

Grandpa: "not in America."

Zhuo Yang said, "Americans don't talk about martial virtue."

Grandpa: "not in India either."

Zhuo Yang said again, "sooner or later."

Grandpa: "from the perspective of women, football is not the first sport."

"Isn't that right? There are never fewer female fans in the stands."

"When you go to the campus of the University, you will find that girls prefer to surround the basketball court to cheer on the boys. There are really few girls near the football field, and there are fewer and fewer."

"I don't go to the college basketball court, I don't understand... Neither do the college football court."

"Zhuo Yang, football needs to change and adapt to the times again."

"How?"

"I don't know. I need to explore a little."

Grandpa Mo drank a few more beers, and white foam hung on his lips again.

Zhuo Yang looked at his mouth. "The tree lined path you yearn for is actually covered with white frost every morning and night."

Grandpa wiped off the foam. "Get out!"

"Brother, the Internet is a good thing, but the Internet age has a great impact on the traditional society, and football is inevitable." Grandpa said, "in the Internet age, all kinds of entertainment and pastimes are overwhelming, which has changed people's way of life and entertainment."

"In the final analysis, football is just a kind of sports and entertainment. The so-called beliefs and feelings are just artificially endowed with meaning over time."

"Time can build and destroy faith. Relevant institutions have made statistics - I also participated in it. The average age of the audience in the stands of the five major leagues is 4.7 years older than ten years ago. This is the power of time."

Zhuo Yang asked, "what does this mean?"

"It shows that a new generation of young people are moving away from the football stands."

Grandpa Mo replaced tea with wine. This time he forgot to wipe off the white frost on his mouth.

"Young people prefer short and fast stimulation, such as various jokes and short videos, and like fast-paced entertainment. Compared with these, the pace of football is too slow."

"At least the rhythm of the Premier League is very fast,... The Bundesliga is also very fast now." Zhuo Yang said.

"It's not the same thing." Grandpa said, "you're talking about the attack and defense rhythm of the game. I mean cool."

"Say a thousand things, the cool points of football are all around goals in the end, and there are too few goals in football. Three goals in 90 minutes is already a big score."

"So a new generation of young people come to the scene to watch the ball is gradually decreasing, and to tell you the truth, the number of people who can watch the whole game is also decreasing, which has also been counted."

"Spectators and fans need a game like a collection of goals in order to meet their increasing excitement threshold."

"Like basketball?"

"Yes, like basketball."

"It's impossible."

"That's why change is needed. Zhuo Yang, you Chinese say that people without foresight must have immediate worries..."

"We Chinese also say that there is nothing to worry about."

"You Chinese also said to take precautions."

"We Chinese also say that the dead ball should be up."

"You Chinese also say you have a big scar on your head."

"Grandpa, I have to say that you are more Chinese than song Xiaobao."

"Who is song Xiaobao?"

"It doesn't matter."

"... OK. Let's move on to the topic just now. Zhuo Yang, your recent game has set a ratings record in the world. You should know why."

"Because I'm handsome."

"More handsome than song Xiaobao?"

Zhuo Yang: "

"Because you score more goals in the game, because of your hat trick." Grandpa said: "there are many goals and gimmicks. These are two very important points for the future of football."

"But people's energy is limited. Your recent popularity has once again raised the appreciation threshold of the football population. As a result, your game ratings are rising, but other games are quietly declining."

"Blame me?"

"Of course not. Football should thank you. But you can't live forever, let alone play football all the time."

"Zhuo Yang, FIFA and UEFA have been trying to impact the sports market in North America for so many years. Although it has achieved results, it is not ideal. There is always the world of the four major leagues, and football is less than the fifth."

"Americans have become accustomed to the stimulation of fast-paced games, to continuous scoring and continuous physical confrontation. I'm afraid this is the future of football audiences all over the world."

"What about that?"

"Capital is profit driven. The reason why the four major leagues in the United States and the five major leagues in Europe are sought after by capital is because they can make money, and the fundamental reason why they can make money is because the audience likes it."

"It can guide and cultivate the audience."

"That must also be based on profit. Now many small teams are very difficult to survive and can't stand a little toss. This is actually an alarm."

"The Premier League has done a good job. The giants and big clubs give subsidies to small teams under the framework, but they are only limited to the Premier League and the championship, and they can't pay attention to it any further."

"We must continue to make the cake bigger and compete with the Internet for the audience. The opponents of football are short videos, shuangwen and E-sports. In fact, if E-sports is regarded as a sport, football is not the first in the world."

"Wipe your mouth again. I look licentious."

"Football should not refuse to change. Compared with when it was founded, it has changed beyond recognition. Football a hundred years ago is completely different from what it is now."

Zhuo Yang thought of the legendary Tang Chang'an League. It was noisy. He often fought and even fought. It was normal for two people to die every day. It was very lively.

"I'm still doing statistics and research, trying to find a new direction for football." Grandpa said: "but two things are clear. One is to improve the exciting output rhythm of football. The other is to improve the football packaging with new ideas and constantly launch new gimmicks, such as you."

"Zhuo Yang, what do you think of dividing the football match into four sections?"

"Whatever."

"What about an elite League? It's more elite than the current Champions League. It's all played by big stars."

"Continue to be casual."

"As the first star in football history, don't you care about the future of football?"

"Grandpa, the Mongols are concerned about the former Mongolian Yuan Empire, the British are concerned about the ever declining Empire, the Italians and Greeks are fighting for the orthodoxy of ancient Rome, and the Koreans say they invented kimchi."

"Is it useful? Is it useful to care about these? Grandpa, you are still young and have seen too little and experienced too little. If your life is long enough, you will understand that everything is the choice of the times."

"Ancient Egypt has disappeared, and our glorious Tang Dynasty in China only exists in history books. Maya civilization and dinosaurs are not more regrettable than football?"

"Therefore, like everything else, football, like a river, will meander along the terrain of the times. If you can't get rid of the resistance, it will dry up or even disappear. If you can break out of the cocoon in the shackles of the times, it will converge into a turbulent river."

"Don't worry about the future of football. In the future, you will be the president of UEFA and try to keep football up with the times. If you can't do it, it means that the times have abandoned football. You can be the president of European E-sports League again."

Grandpa: "

"In front of the torrent of the times, everyone and everything are small. Don't force it."

"Live in the present. I don't want to be so far away. If football is not hot in the future, it's not hot. If the piano is corrupt in the future, let it degenerate."

"I just want to beat Tottenham tomorrow. Grandpa, you should also think about how to beat Manchester City tomorrow and how not to let me score three goals."

Without speculating, Grandpa Mo drank the beer in his glass without saying a word, and his Boulevard was covered with white frost again.
