মেস্সি-রোনালদো চীনে

আমি ঘুমোতেই পারিনা

আমি 8বছর NBA-এর খেলোয়াড়দের ‘পথচলা’ (trajectory) MLOps-এর मॉडलিংয়ে। “যদি मेस्सी ओर रोनालदो चीन में पैदा हुए?” -এই प्रश्न के साथ मुझे हंसते नहीं, data बुलाते।

প্রতিভা = 100%? - না। প্‍রতিভা + system = Greatness.

প্‍রতিভা: (জগৎভাষায়),

ব্যবস্থা: (স্থানভাষায়)

ধরুন, Argentina/Portugal-এর ‘জনকলঙ্ক’দলকে Shandong (state-led academies) & Shanghai (private academies) -এ transfer kore dite hobe। Physical gifts: identical. But…

FIFA 2023 Report: China-এ under-15 players-এর only 17% trained ≥3x/week with qualified coach. Spain: 68%. Not about passion—about structure.

পথ: Playgrounds → Professionalism?

Shandong: cracked asphalt on school time — teacher praise kore. But no scouts. Even if join academy? Most training is performance-driven—not creativity. Dribbling drills replace imagination. The system kills innovation before it starts.

Shanghai: $5k/year private academy — but results over growth. No national pathway beyond regional games. So even genius talent… can’t scale.

সংস্কৃতি > DNA

Not anti-China — pro-system thinking. in Brazil/Argentina: kids dream of Pelé/Maradona because they see them on TV & hear stories at dinner table every night. in Beijing/Hangzhou? STEM dreams rule — engineering scholarships > football stardom. PARENTS don’t discourage — they redirect toward safer futures. And honestly? They’re not wrong. Football offers fewer stable careers than finance or tech in China’s education economy. The irony? The system that makes world-class engineers may kill world-class athletes before they start.

What Would Change?

The only thing: institutional investment—not isolated academies but national reform across cities/provinces. Think: frees access to fields; coaches per 100 kids; integration with school curriculum (like Japan). The dream must be normalized again: The child who dribbles through traffic should be praised—not told to study harder for Gaokao math exams. Otherwise… genius stays hidden under layers of practicality.

Final Statistic (Because I’m an Analyst)

If you randomly select 1 million Chinese children aged 8–12 today… you’ll find roughly 3–4 true elite talents per year—with potential matching Messi/Ronaldo levels.* But fewer than one will ever make professional first teams due to structural bottlenecks—not ability.* The problem isn’t talent—it’s access. We need more than wonder—we need wiring.
