In his view, only when a large number of Chinese players go out and gain a foothold in foreign high-level leagues, can Chinese football really be able to improve.

Regardless of his status, he hopes to help Chinese football integrate into the world in the future.

The full text of the weekly journal is as follows:
At such a point in time, in such a confined space, a person flew from Shaka to Barcelona.
Just when the plane climbed up, I suddenly wondered how good it would be to kick a ball just like an airplane flight, with clear goals, precise directions, and not getting lost.
This weekly diary about my 30-year-old has been brewing for a long time. It is difficult to fully express the experience of the past ten years, especially when I was far away from everyone. Different stages of life have different life goals. After rushing for the Super League, I am eager to win the Chinese Super League. After winning the championship, I think of honing myself on the world stage. Fortunately, my goal has been achieved in the plan, but it seems that I have not achieved it early enough. I often think about it if I came to Europe a few years earlier. Ball, can I climb another step?
I know there will be no answers. I don’t need to worry about these. The steps I have climbed step by step for so many years are also the cornerstone of my next goal.
Both are the best results!
On February 3, 2019 local time, in the 22nd round of La Liga, in the Spaniard’s away game against Villarreal, Wu Lei entered the Spaniard team for the first time and replaced him in the 77th minute of the game. Debut and complete his personal La Liga debut.
In the end, the Spaniard drew with Villarreal 2:2 away.

Growing up in Genbao Base, my memory of my childhood is almost that Guidance Xu took us to train, teach us to be humans, and constantly instill in us the responsibilities and missions of Chinese footballers. When I was young, I wrote on the blackboard of Genbao Base. Pass: Sometimes in the interaction with people, what we need is to comfort others instead of flaunting ourselves. In order to make others happy, what does it matter if we endure some misunderstandings?
I have forgotten why I wrote this sentence at the time, but I still remember my mood at the time. I was very small at the time, my age and body shape are all. Guidance Xu still trusts me. Today at the age of 30, I have a new insight: As Chinese football is constantly exploring and advancing, what we need is to calm down and plan the overall goal. What does it matter for individuals and collectives to endure a little misunderstanding and slander in order to be able to make continuous progress?
How can life be more satisfactory, everything is only half-satisfying.
In the past few years, I have deliberately stayed away from some things that make my mind feel noisy. I self-examined that since I have achieved many goals, then I can’t choose the wrong path, the direction is right, the hard work of the road is worth it, maybe when I was young Of course, I can still reason with others, and now I just want to close my mouth to persuade others and explain the problem with actions and results.
I like to watch the youth team games on the spot after training. Perhaps I was too optimistic about the development of the Chinese football industry until I saw the football system, club operations, football atmosphere, and ordinary people abroad from top to bottom. The love of football and so on, the harvest is all-round, but the mood is more complicated, and we still have a long way to go.
Regardless of the league level, only a large number of Chinese players are willing to come out and gain a foothold abroad, can Chinese football really be able to improve.
Although it is a birthday, I still want to say something about regrets. Perhaps the most unwilling thing as a professional player is not being able to make a World Cup for the country.
Just 30 years old, it is the peak of my career. According to the progress of modern sports science, I should have three or four years of opportunities as a football player. But as a footballer, my football career is just the beginning. There is so much to do.
When I was a child, I said that I hope that one day I can be worth 60 or 70 million. Today I hope that in the future, whether you are a player, a coach or a youth coach, whether you are in your forties or fifty, you must make Chinese football. Get into the world!
