The Chinese men's basketball World Cup will be held in August, so FIBA has just held the draw ceremony for the World Cup group stage in Manila, Philippines on April 29, and the results of the Chinese team's group stage have come out, according to the comparison of previous years, this year seems to be more lucky. China and Serbia are in Group B, along with Puerto Rico and South Sudan, and will compete in the group stage in Manila. In fact, many fans are saying that this is a draw for China, but in fact, we look at the results of the draw when the Chinese team faced Kobe Bryant and Yao Ming at home in 2019, and the so-called draw was fruitless, and we certainly can't take any opponent lightly this time.
Then on the morning of April 30, the schedule of the Chinese men's basketball group stage was also announced, and on August 26, the Chinese team played the first game against Serbia, then on August 28 against South Sudan, and then August 30 against Puerto Rico, the schedule was relatively tight, presumably fans are also very concerned. The top two teams in each group stage advance to the knockout rounds, and the teams that advance will be played next on September 10.
So in order to prepare for the next heavy game, the Chinese Basketball Association recently arranged for a short-term training at the basketball base in Qingdao from May 1 to 9, 2023. In the list we saw a few days ago, most of the players in this training camp were young players, such as Zeng Fanbo, Cui Yongxi, etc., but we also saw a familiar name: Zhou Qi. Presumably, many fans are very concerned about Zhou Qi's current situation, in fact, he has always been in a state without a ball to play. After such a big deal with Xinjiang, Zhou Qi has not been able to enter the CBA club for a long time to compete, and now he still belongs to Xinjiang, and he must also wait for the end of the season to see if there is a team that can transfer, which also involves huge transfer fees and top salaries.
So during this time, Zhou Qi has been maintaining the habit of exercise and fitness, on the one hand, there is no ball to play, so he has to maintain a good state and wait for the call of the national team, on the other hand, if you want to continue to be the main force of the national team, systematic training is also particularly important. As Du Feng also said in a recent interview, it is not easy for Zhou Qi to choose to play overseas, after all, the national team men's basketball team must come back as soon as he is summoned, if he chooses wrong this time, then the position of the national team will also be lost in the future, which is really a dilemma. However, the manager of Jordjevic still recognizes Zhou Qi, so Yao Ming's return to the national team is also the biggest encouragement to him.
And we saw the photos posted by Zhou Qi on social media, with the text set off, saying that Zhou Qi had gone to the training base of the men's basketball team to start training. Recently, Zhou Qi has also had a series of good things, and signed a valuable endorsement before entering the training. According to media reports, a well-known domestic milk brand announced the signing of a strategic cooperation with the Chinese men's basketball team, so the appearance of Zhou Qi as a spokesperson also shows that the Chinese men's basketball team attaches great importance to Zhou Qi. Not only because of Zhou Qi's influence in the world, but also because Zhou Qi's internal ability and personal performance are good, then this time Zhou Qi must also get a signing fee higher than a year's salary, and it is not in vain that there is no ball to play for half a year.
Let's analyze the market value of Zhou Qi, first of all, his worth is at least hundreds of millions, after all, his salary in the Xinjiang team is less than 60 million, plus its commercial value, Zhou Qi's brand value is said to be 500 million is small, so even if the rumored Shanghai Jiushi did not sign Zhou Qi because of the problem of negative game turmoil to make him lose a lot, but Zhou Qi is about to express himself on the international stage, if he can represent the Chinese men's basketball team to get good results, Zhou Qi's future is still very bright.
What do you think as a fan?
