"The team is gone, I want to stay and draw the lot myself."
A beautiful woman with short hair and capable hair said.
Her name is Wu Bolan, but in the eyes of many fans, her identity and appearance are talked about in the entire CBA circle...
Four beauties take the lead
CBA, full name "China Men's Basketball Professional League". Since it is a men's basketball team, it is usually for the convenience of work and life, and the staff in other positions are mostly men.
But in this green leafy bush, there are also several flowers in bloom.
Geng Jie, the chairman of Sichuan Jinqiang Club, is also the first female chairman of the CBA, with long flowing hair, glasses, and is very intellectual.
The other is Qin Xiaowen, president and chairman of Beijing Shougang Club, who is a broker and the only officially certified female agent.
Unfortunately, she stepped down in December 2022.
Another very eye-catching is Wu Di, the proprietress of Guangdong Hongyuan Club, who has been actively involved in various affairs and operations of the club, and her figure is also very tall.
Although the group has its own posture, in the minds of CBA fans, Wu Bolan is recognized as "the most beautiful boss in the CBA".
When she first appeared in the public eye in 2014, her short and capable hair contrasted with her beautiful facial features.
The three words "Wu Bolan" have become the white moonlight in the hearts of fans, she is the general manager of Fujian Xunxing Club, initially working as a translator in the club, and as her ability has increased, Wu Bolan has also taken over the position of general manager.
As Wu Bolan's exposure in the team became higher and higher, fans recognized Wu Bolan's appearance more and more, and during the game, many people began to look forward to the Fujian team's game because of Wu Bolan.
However, it is a pity that the Fujian team has not been very satisfactory for various reasons.
Wu Bolan once tried to improve some strength in recruiting and integrating team resources, but he never had an ideal situation.
In the absence of anything to do, Wu Bolan has always hoped that the team can reap some miracles, and she finally waited for that "miracle" in the bottoming out.
Draft draw
In the 2021 CBA competition, the Fujian team returned home again.
Soon came the very important draft of the year, which is the most important step in the CBA's selection of rookie talent.
In this draft, the winning rate of the Fujian team is only 14%, compared with other teams, the success rate is not too high, and it really takes luck to obtain talent, and even the champion level.
And because the Fujian team did not make the playoffs at that time, the players were discouraged and had already left early. Only Wu Bolan remained at the draft site.
Wu Bolan was actually very frustrated at that time, but she also knew very well that at present, the Fujian team was only a dozen in the ranking, and her team needed reinforcements to win.
However, the draw rate of the Fujian team is not objectively optimistic.
Thinking that his team would have to wait until the tenth to draw people, Wu Bolan felt very anxious.
Although the team is gone, Woolland still wants to stay and draw the lot himself. Even if the odds are very slim, she has to give it a try for the team.
It was during the epidemic, Wu Bolan was still wearing a mask, and when she drew the ticket and looked at it, she was so excited that she couldn't speak.
She actually won the top spot in the draft! Wu Bolan's haze covered by the loss of the game was suddenly swept away, her eyes lit up, her smile spread, even if she was wearing a mask, she could feel her overflowing joy.
Although the talent of the draft has not yet come out, the selection of the top sign means that the Fujian team has the right to choose the first pick, and they can choose the right choice, missing positions and powerful talents for the team.
Afterwards, Wu Bolan was interviewed, because she was too excited, she took off her mask and revealed her long-lost sweet smile, and Wu Bolan obviously did not expect the favor of Lady Luck this time.
In July of the same year, the Fujian team selected Wang Yixiong, a student from California State University at Fulton, NCAA, but unfortunately, Wang Yixiong was injured in the first warm-up game.
The Fujian team still had to rely on the old players to play a piece of the sky.
However, the Fujian team had to face the "threat" of the transfer of capable Wang Zhelin.
Suspicion and the main force spread the scandal
Speaking of Wang Zhelin, the achievements of his sports career are also remarkable.
However, although he set many records, it was still difficult to help the team turn the tide and rebound on his own.
Therefore, many people know that "Wang Zhelin is strong" and "the Fujian team can't do it" are two concepts, which also makes the Fujian team often "worried" that Wang Zhelin was poached.
The Fujian team once tried to keep Wang Zhelin with a top salary contract, and also divided some shares to Wang Zhelin, just to give Wang Zhelin a sense of belonging.
Wang Zhelin has indeed been playing diligently in the Fujian team, and even had an affair with Wu Bolan during this period.
Around 2017, a photo was uploaded on the Internet, the scene of the photo was a swimming pool, Wu Bolan and Wang Zhelin were in it, but their actions were a little ambiguous.
In the photo, Wang Zhelin stands behind Wu Bolan, and the burly and tall man hugs the petite Wu Bolan from behind, and the two seem to be playing.
As soon as this photo came out, many people began to doubt the relationship between Wu Bolan and Wang Zhelin, after all, the two are similar in age, and Wu Bolan has never disclosed his love life.
However, as if to avoid suspicion, or not to occupy public resources, the photo quickly disappeared and no longer appeared in major public places.
Some fans believe that this is due to the public relations of the Fujian team, in order to cover up; Another part of fans believes that the Fujian team, as the team with the lowest influence in the CBA league, is better to strengthen with this money.
In the same year, Wu Bolan said in an interview that he could not rule out the possibility of falling in love with the player.
Some people think that Wang Zhelin and Wu Bolan are a couple.
Having said that, the relationship between the two has never been confirmed, and it only exists in scandals.
And 2021 is an eventful year for the Fujian team.
The top signing player was accidentally injured, and the Fujian team still needs a large amount of money to make up for it. The Shanghai team threw an olive branch of huge transfer fees to Wang Zhelin.
Wu Bolan thought about it again and again, and finally discussed with the leadership and Wang Zhelin and decided to let Wang Zhelin transfer.
It is reported that Wang Zhelin's transfer fee is as high as 90 million yuan.
For the Fujian team, Wang Zhelin has been in the Fujian team for many years and is still difficult to support alone. What Wu Bolan thought was that if the structure of the team was adjusted, there would be a better plan.
With Wang Zhelin's transfer fee, Fujian brought in young players from other clubs – albeit on loan. But the effect is not as good as expected.
Questioned leadership
The Fujian team without Wang Zhelin has fallen to a new low in history in the new CBA season, winning only seven games throughout the season.
This made many Fujian fans, and even other spectators watching the fun, question Wu Bolan's decision: sell a big player in the team, but make up for a decline in performance.
Some people even believe that the reason for the Fujian team's poor performance from beginning to end is the result of the leadership represented by Wu Bolan making decisions indiscriminately.
In 2022, in the new draft competition, the Fujian team selected Wang Chengbin, a player who should have been undrafted, which made people question him even more.
Wu Bolan stood up at this time to explain, saying that the negligence of the Fujian team in previous years did not pay attention to the training of the youth echelon, resulting in the current Fujian team's youth army not coming up.
Although Wang Chengbin is an abandoned pawn of the Shanghai team, he is currently suitable for the empty window of the Fujian team.
After all, the Fujian team is aware of the problem of youth training, and it still takes time to train again.
However, many people further used this incident to illustrate the strength of the leadership represented by Wu Bolan.
After being questioned by many people, Wu Bolan also had concerns about Wang Chengbin's strength.
Therefore, although Wang Chengbin was included in the Fujian team, he still trained in the Fujian youth team, and he has not been on the stage of the CBA once.
Woolland also wanted to make some real results quickly, so in September 2022, she successfully brought in two foreign players - Thorne Meck and Tyrese McGee.
Thorne Meck once served as a national player in Australia, and his strength should not be underestimated.
To be able to recruit such strong foreign aid, Wu Bolan must have put a lot of thought.
In December of the same year, the Fujian team won another fierce player: Darius Adams, who led the Xinjiang team to the first CBA championship in team history and won the existence of FMVP.
With the reinforcement of the Fujian team, it can be seen that they really want to fight this time. In fact, this reinforcement brought new hope to the Fujian team.
Perhaps because people are in good spirits at happy events, Wu Bolan's state is getting better and better. After 9 years of loyalty to the Fujian team, Wu Bolan's appearance has hardly changed.
It's still as beautiful as a flower
In May 2023, the CBA held a shareholders' meeting in Beijing, and the CEOs of many clubs came from all over the country to gather together.
Although they are usually rivals in the arena, and they also need to play against each other for work reasons off the field, but these aside, their relationship in private is quite good.
On the sidelines of the shareholders' meeting, these leaders also gathered to eat hot pot, and Wu Bolan was among them. Zhu Fangyu, the general manager of the Guangdong team, recorded the appearance of the boss in the hot pot party.
When introducing the general manager of the Ningbo team, Zhu Fangyu deliberately pretended to forget his name, which caused everyone present to laugh. Except for one person.
In the smiling expressions of others, Wu Bolan has been looking down at his mobile phone, his expression is very serious, and he seems to have been immersed in work.
In addition, Wu Bolan is still the trademark short hair, and his appearance is still the same as when he first appeared in the public eye, very beautiful as a flower.
With such a relaxed view of still remembering her work, Woe may really want to wash away her reputation as "incapable of working."
A month later, Xiamen held its first four-nation tournament, with teams from Italy, Argentina and the United States participating in teams from Italy, Argentina and the United States.
The strengthened Fujian team was full of spirit in this competition, washed away the past grievances, and won the first place in one fell swoop and became the champion of this competition.
Wu Bolan, who had been watching from the field, couldn't help but cry with joy when he saw that the players had finally won their honor.
Wu Bolan did not forget the reinforcement of youth training, and in the same month, the youth training selection competition of the Fujian team also officially began, which was in full swing.
The lessons learned in the youth academy can no longer fail. Perhaps this is the meaning of the Fujian team that needs to grow.
Perhaps for Wu Bolan, her various operations will still be questioned by many people, and many people have many bad speculations because of her beautiful appearance.
Beauty made Wu Bolan known to the public, but it also became her constraint.
Wu Bolan needs to work harder than many people to prove his value in his work with his work performance.
Everyone has a meaning in the social system, and maybe one day, Woe Bolan will be able to make fans say: she is really a good manager!
