According to reporter Qin Yun, the Chinese Football Association will study the issue of returning the adjustment fee to the clubs in the near future.
According to the report, clubs such as Guangzhou and Beijing Guoan had hoped to refund the adjustment fee to alleviate the operational crisis. Public opinion also has this call.
Coupled with the recent "State Administration of Market Regulation has also issued a clean-up task in response to the unreasonable charges of the Chinese Football Association, so as to promote the progress of the Chinese Football Association's return of the adjustment fee" - this "unreasonable fee" may indicate why the Football Association has finally made up its mind and finally returned the real reason for this high fee.
In order to limit the chaos of high-priced and disorderly reinforcements in the era of "Golden Dollar Football", the Football Association did not adopt the "salary limit, investment limit" method currently being used, but introduced the so-called "payment of reinforcement saving fees" trick.
At that time, in fact, it did not effectively put an end to the phenomenon of high-priced reinforcements - the Football Association actually charged more than 1 billion yuan in reinforcement fees, which is the best proof! And this fee, but let the Football Association, a non-governmental association organization, collect more than 1 billion fees from it!
Now, China's professional football operation is difficult to sustain, except for a few clubs supported by state-owned enterprises that do not owe wages, most of the other teams have encountered unprecedented operational difficulties, then, now as the manager and promoter of the development of Chinese football, the Football Association has finally released the wind to study and refund this huge amount of "reinforcement adjustment fee", which is obviously a correct decision to correct the chaos, and it will certainly be unanimously welcomed by the club and the public.
However, even if these adjustment fees are indeed repaid, the Football Association still has to answer these three major questions of public concern:
First, is there a legal basis for the collection, use and refund of the "reinforcement adjustment fee"? Is it a statutory fee procedure?
The SFTU is an association of civil organizations, and its fees must obviously be approved and supervised by the relevant state management departments, such as the price department in the market supervision department, or the civil affairs department, etc. Is it legal and compliant to introduce this fee item in that year?
Secondly, why did some clubs pay this fee of more than 1 billion yuan, but like the Shanghai Harbour Club, they have not paid so far? Is it the legendary "FOOTBALL ASSOCIATION can not give a legal receipt bill"?
So, does this mean that the FOOTBALL Association has collected more than 1 billion yuan and has not given legal receipts? If so, wouldn't it be proved that the FA has violated the law and regulations of "not giving a legal receipt" to this fee?
Second, is this huge fee of more than 1 billion yuan used for the prescribed projects? Should the specifics of the application be reviewed and made public? In terms of revenue and expenditure, are there any problems of violations of laws and regulations?
Some netizens also roughly calculated an account: 1 billion yuan, according to the annualized rate of return of 4%, one year is 40 million yuan, 3 years is 120 million yuan of interest income - then, even if the refund of more than 1 billion yuan of reinforcement adjustment fees, but these over or will exceed 100 million interest, how to deal with it? Also returned to the club, or kept for the FA's own use? And on what basis?
In addition, like some teams that have previously withdrawn from the Chinese professional league, such as Jiangsu Suning, Tianjin Quanjian, etc., can they pay the reinforcement adjustment fee refunded? If so, to whom? Or did the FA keep itself? Is there a legal basis for this?
Third, for the call for the refund of the adjustment fee, the Football Association has not responded before, why did the Football Association only come out of the wind that the adjustment fee will be refunded after the inspection of the national market supervision department?
The state obviously attaches great importance to the supervision of fees and charges, and it is also extremely strict, so the Football Association should explain to the public the source and destination of this adjustment fee, and should make a comprehensive public announcement and make a detailed explanation to the society.
If the FA has spent some of this money – it should also explain where the expenditure went and the details, and whether it is reasonable to audit and review it, so as to give the club and the public an account!
At the same time, through this incident, the Football Association and the regulatory departments are also reminded that they must also conduct comprehensive supervision over the future fees and financial situation of the Football Association, and there will be no more such a situation of "unreasonable charges" that "have to be refunded".
In addition, like the national football team to participate in the World Cup preliminary round, each time there are a huge charter team and other expenses, as well as the victory of the Guam team award of 1 million; the victory of the Maldives team award of 2 million, the victory of the Philippine team award of 3 million, the victory of Syria and Vietnam each reward of 6 million, a total of 12 million rewards, although in the final World Cup 12 rounds, the national football team only 1 win 3 draws and 6 points were eliminated early - so, is this reward reasonable? Why hasn't there been a clear distinction between rewards and punishments, rewards and penalties?
In fact, the football association is a non-governmental association, which is a major promoter of macro guidance and management of the development of Chinese football, rather than micro managers and "huge money managers and users" - these functions should have been handed over to the "professional football league" that has been brewing for many years! Only in this way can we return to their places and let the Football Association really play its due role, instead of becoming a "housekeeper mother-in-law" who manages everything as it is now! 【Original Review: Yu said that hugh】
