For Chinese football, Camacho is gone, and it seems he has taken all the blame for failure with him. However, for any rational fan or football professional, Camacho is merely a scapegoat. Camacho bears a certain degree of main responsibility for the national team's recent defeats, but the root causes were indeed planted by Chinese football itself. Over the past two years, the atmosphere of China's football leagues has gradually warmed up, but this is only superficial. After excluding giants like Guangzhou Evergrande, many of our professional competitive football statistics show a declining trend. For example, the overall running distance of players in the league is insufficient, and players and officials focus only on the league while neglecting the national team, and so on. As for the management of the national team and clubs, there are even more problems. In earlier years there was the practice of suspending league promotion and relegation for the sake of qualifying; later there was constant changing of styles and lineups, learning from Brazil one moment, from France the next, and then from Spain. Changes kept happening, and in the end it was a clumsy imitation, with the Chinese team itself as the victim.

    In fact, this phenomenon is also common in the construction machinery industry where the author works. Indeed, China's construction machinery still lags behind foreign enterprises in overall machine technology. As a result, many cases of forced imitation have appeared, and because many of China's hardware facilities fail to meet standards, a product ultimately fails. In fact, in many cases we should actively absorb advanced foreign technology and management experience, but this does not mean wholesale acceptance. Just as when Marxism was introduced to China, we basically needed to learn and apply that doctrine, but still had to combine it with China's unique social reality at the time. Only in this way could we grasp the essence of Marxism while also producing a group of outstanding role models of the era.

    In fact, China's construction machinery has many problems, not only at the technical level; many aspects need improvement. If the state is to reform and supervise the industry, it needs wiser methods that better conform to market rules. The competition mechanism within the industry must also become more rational; practices such as zero down payment will ultimately harm many parties.

    For Chinese football, a "sinner," Camacho, has left, but for China's construction machinery, do not let a "Camacho-style" tragedy play out again!
