Two or three months ago, regarding the game between Xinjiang Guanghui Basketball Club and the Chinese Basketball Association, from the very beginning of the basketball association punishing Xinjiang, to the official announcement of Xinjiang Guanghui Club's withdrawal, to Xinjiang Guanghui's deletion of the withdrawal announcement and being invited back to the CBA by all parties, it can be said that it has triggered one farce after another. And now, this farce has finally come to an end with "the restoration of the registration of new athletes by Xinjiang Guanghui Basketball Club Co., Ltd. from now on"!
For the current basketball association to overturn the resolution it made a few months ago, it can be said that there are traces to follow!
On the stage of professional sports in China, more clubs have withdrawn; However, Xinjiang Guanghui was the first club to send officials to lobby in person, and it was also the first to personally come forward to retain the head of the General Body; Therefore, Gao Zhidan's appearance itself shows that the impact of Xinjiang Guanghui's withdrawal is not something that Chinese basketball and even Chinese sports can easily digest. Therefore, after the withdrawal announcement, all parties, including the Sports Federation, the Basketball Association, the Sports Bureau of the autonomous region, the CBA company and other CBA clubs, have been lobbying hard and promoting the return of Xinjiang.
Of course, in the process of Xinjiang Guanghui's withdrawal and return, the club once clearly released the signal that "only if the punishment is revoked will it continue to participate". Yang Yi, a well-known media person, once revealed that when relevant responsible persons, including Xu Jicheng, vice chairman of the basketball association, personally went to Xinjiang to communicate, they had already proposed "neither implementing punishment nor revoking punishment; Put the dispute aside first, put this matter aside first" solution. At the CBA extraordinary shareholders' meeting to discuss whether to let Xinjiang return, no one mentioned whether to punish Xinjiang Guanghui. At that time, Yang Yi, a well-known media person, had already made the prediction that "there will be a time buffer in the offseason, everyone has a step, and they can not be penalized".
Sure enough, the Chinese Basketball Association previously fined Xinjiang, but in the offseason, when the penalty is revoked, it means that the basketball association is equivalent to not fining Xinjiang, which can be regarded as a "transfer of power". After all, the original decision to punish Xinjiang was led by Yao Minggo; And this time "restoring the qualifications of Xinjiang registered new athletes" is more like Xu Jicheng, who has just become the chairman of CBA company!
Because Zhou Qi reported that the main body of the Xinjiang team was mixed, it was rejected by the State Administration of Taxation; and the former head of the CEO company, who gave an affirmative answer to Xinjiang Guanghui's company registered in Khorgos to sign a contract with the CBA company and pay the players' salaries; What's more, the whole CBA is not only Xinjiang Guanghui family to do this, so the original basketball association's punishment of Xinjiang Guanghui itself lacks enough convincing, and it is actually reasonable to overturn. But from another point of view, when all clubs clearly support Xinjiang on the issue of Zhou Qi, investors hope that Zhou Qi's problem can only be solved within the framework of the existing league, and the basketball association may not dare to challenge the bottom limit of investors in the context of anti-corruption in the entire sports world, and the basketball association gives in on Zhou Qi's issue, which means that Zhou Qi's problem has returned to the original point again.
What is the future of Zhou Qi? The famous self-media "Sports Business" believes that the basketball association revoked the punishment of the Xinjiang men's basketball team, which paved the way for the next solution to Zhou Qi's problem.
They predict that the eventual direction of this matter is likely to be that the Xinjiang transaction sends Zhou Qi away in exchange for corresponding assets and chips. This subordinate may be designated by Zhou Qi, or it may be a club that has the ability to take over him.
And Xinjiang Guanghui also knows that the twisted melon is not sweet, they know very well that Zhou Qi and the club tear their faces, will not play for the Xinjiang men's basketball team again, in fact, the Xinjiang men's basketball team has long released a signal that it is willing to negotiate with all buyers. But from beginning to end, no club has taken practical action on the issue of introducing Zhou Qi.
Previously, regarding Zhou Qi's potential next home, public opinion had long released the signal that "Sui Ran wanted to operate him in a free body to Shanghai". But now with Zhou Qi's free body in vain, and Xinjiang made it clear two years ago that it would not talk to Sui Ran, this invisibly aggravated the difficulty of Zhou Qi's transfer.
When Wang Zhelin went to Shanghai two years ago, Shanghai Jiushi paid a transfer fee of 80 million. And Zhou Qi's strength and coffee position are obviously above Wang Zhelin, and it stands to reason that the price of redeeming Zhou Qi's body should be higher than 80 million!
But at the CBA level, many clubs don't invest 80 million a year; At present, it is recognized that there are only 1.5 rich clubs at the CBA level. 1 is Shanghai Jiushi, and 0.5 is Beijing Shougang. But Beijing Shougang has accumulated too many internal lines, and it is impossible to buy Zhou Qi at a high price at this stage. And Shanghai Jiushi did have a strong interest in Zhou Qi before, but this strong interest itself was based on the "free body joining" promised by Sui Ran! It can even be said that if Shanghai Jiushi is willing to smash a high price to win Zhou Qi, they have already solved Zhou Qi's problem.
In the past two years, Sui Ran has indeed had close ties with Shanghai Jiushi, and his agents Wang Zhelin and Ding Yanyuhang have successively joined Shanghai. But now that Wang Zhelin has ended his cooperation with Sui Ran, Ding Yanyuhang has also been "leased" by Shanghai; Coupled with the punishment of Shanghai Jiushi's negative match, the management and coaching staff were forced to adjust, and indirectly led to the fact that the connection between Sui Ran and Shanghai Jiushi was not as close as before, Zhou Qi's problem has dragged on for two years, can it be solved this summer?
