We Are the Champions

This book tells the story of Zhang Jun's football career against the backdrop of China's golden generation of football.

Although it is titled We Are the Champions, Zhang Jun remains the main character. He is the protagonist, and the novel follows him from the moment he enters professional football until his retirement.

Through his eyes and experiences, it sketches for readers the course of Chinese football's development.

There is joy, sorrow, hope, and disappointment.

Chinese football moves forward along with the ups and downs of Zhang Jun's professional career.

There is progress, regression, darkness, and light.

The climax of the entire book is China's national team winning the World Cup, but that is not what this book ultimately seeks to express.

The true meaning of We Are the Champions does not lie in winning a historic World Cup, but in the question posed at the novel's end: What kind of champion does Chinese football really need?

So please, all readers, patiently read the entire work. To be honest, the author himself wanted to write it all in one go and upload it all at once, so everyone could read it in a single sitting. Only then would the book Champions truly have its full flavor.

However, because of the nature of online serialization and writing, everyone can only wait along with the story. During that waiting, there will be joy, sorrow, anger, and disappointment, but please do not give up. Although Champions is a work of wish fulfillment based on reality, overall it is a sunny, inspirational story filled with hope.

Perhaps after enduring all the darkness, you will suddenly discover, almost without realizing it, a sliver of light waiting quietly in the distance. Walk toward it, and you will see Chinese football bathed in brilliant sunlight in an instant after absolute darkness...
