Since Yao Ming became the chairman of the CBA company, the CBA league has maintained 20 teams, and after a few years, the CBA league has no intention of expanding at all! Although many NBL teams hope to join the CBA league, such as Guangxi Weizhuang, Anhui Wenyi and other teams are very eager to become a member of the CBA, but Yao Ming just does not let go, so that these NBL teams are a little desperate, completely unable to see the hope of advancing to the CBA league. No one knows what year it will take to become a member of the CBA league. So, when will the CBA League be able to expand? For now, maybe only God knows.
So, why hasn't the CBA league expanded for so long? What caused Yao Ming to not let go for a long time? Recently, Xu Jicheng, the new chairman of CBA, inadvertently revealed an important news at a press conference, hinting at the reason why CBA did not expand the army. Xu Jicheng said: "When the CBA league was in 03, when a CBA team only had a market value of a few million, if you want to sell a CBA team, it will definitely not exceed 10 million, and now in 2023, a team is worth more than 1 billion!" In this, Yao Ming played a big role, it was he who injected a lot of resources and made the CBA league grow. ”
Xu Jicheng's words can be said to be very informative, on the one hand, it shows that the CBA league has grown rapidly in the past 20 years, and from the perspective of the team's market value alone, it has increased by more than 10 times, which fully shows that the CBA league is constantly growing and the market value is increasing. On the other hand, it also shows that the CBA team is worth a lot now, very valuable! It shows that the CBA league this cake is very fragrant! Very fragrant! In the face of such a fragrant "cake", the 20 shareholders of the CBA definitely do not want to share it casually, so the expansion of the CBA league has become difficult to produce.
From the CBA league in recent years, the income of each team is also considerable, CBA companies give the team dividends of about 30 million a year, this huge dividend, so that many CBA small teams can basically maintain daily operations. At the same time, with the resumption of home and away games in the CBA League, the ticket revenue of each team is also very considerable, and many teams have a hard time finding home tickets.
For example, CBA powerhouses such as Guangdong team, Liaoning team, Beijing team, and Guangsha team, each of their home ticket revenue is between 2 million and 3 million, and the Guangdong team has reached about 5 million, and after a season, the income of home tickets will exceed 100 million! Ticket revenue alone can maintain the normal operation of the Guangdong team. Of course, the CBA league's three-year consecutive conference system has also left the Guangdong team in a deep quagmire, but the league resumed the home-and-away system last season, otherwise, it is also difficult for the Guangdong team to move forward. However, now the biggest difficulty has passed! The Guangdong team has regained its new life.
At the same time, in order for teams to operate healthier, the CBA has also formulated a series of measures to reduce expenses, such as setting a salary cap on player wages and limiting the unlimited increase of player wages. Next season, the salary cap for domestic players in the CBA league is 42 million yuan, and the salary cap for foreign aid is 4.25 million US dollars! These measures by the CBA are undoubtedly aimed at achieving financial health for all teams and profitability for all teams. It has to be said that under the leadership of Yao Ming, CBA is getting better and better, and the future is promising.
From the perspective of the market value of the CBA league teams, it also fully shows that China's basketball market is huge, and there are many articles to be done in the future, so when the CBA league develops to a certain extent, 20 teams will definitely not be able to meet the market requirements, and the CBA league will open the franchise quota, and it will definitely restart, and it must also restart. So, when will the CBA League be expanded? Maybe it may start in another 2-3 years, so we'll see.
