Du Zhaocai's six years: redrawing the order of the Chinese Super League and competing with Chen Jiayuan, the hidden pain of Chinese football.
In the summer of 2017, Du Zhaocai rode the wind and waves, played a football association chapter, and climbed to the peak of power in Chinese football. At that time, Cai Zhenhua was basically erected, and Du Zhaocai became the actual helmsman of the Football Association. Living up to expectations, the first thing Du Zhaocai did when he took office was to strengthen the much-criticized "transfer adjustment fee" system with an iron fist, give the club stricter control, plug the loopholes in the system, and cause the club to have to hand over heavy "tribute". As of 2020, clubs such as Guangzhou Evergrande, Beijing Guoan, and Tianjin Tianhai had paid a total of more than 15 billion yuan in adjustment fees to the Football Association, which was regarded as Du Zhaocai's "merit" at the time. However, this huge amount of unknown origin has now become an "unmanageable bad debt", and the whereabouts of the money are unknown, which has become a huge mystery, which is undoubtedly the greatest irony of Du Zhaocai's "bad government" in those years.
However, this is only the tip of the iceberg of Du Zhaocai's "crime". After he took the helm of the Football Association, he began the chaotic policy of the Chinese Super League for three years, and every year it continued to innovate. Sometimes, he advocated "national teams participating in professional leagues", sometimes he proposed the idea of "national training teams", and even forced the transfer of club players for military training during the league, and introduced ironic policies such as "U25 national teams". The end result of these policies ended in failure, but it was a devastating blow to the order of the Chinese Super League and the confidence of sponsors. Although the Chinese Super League was still in the heyday of the Golden Yuan era at that time, it had begun to gradually slide to the bottom.
At the peak of Du Zhaocai's power, in the summer of 2019, Chen Jiayuan officially entered the Football Association, forming a situation in which Chen Jiayuan was in charge and Du Zhaocai was outside. However, although these two high-ranking officials are harmonious on the surface, in fact, the undercurrent is turbulent, and there is an open and dark fight. In order to consolidate his authority in the Football Association, Du Zhaocai even expanded the already huge Football Association power organization and installed his own "cronies" to suppress Chen Jiayuan. As a result, the Football Association has become a stage for Du and Chen to compete, and the development of football has been almost marginalized.
However, Du Zhaocai's biggest injury to Chinese football does not stop there. In 2019, the Chinese Olympic team lost to Vietnam at home, causing an uproar, and then it was revealed that the selection of the national team was controlled by the agency and became a profit delivery tool. At that time, it was Du Zhaocai who was in charge of youth selection, and he undeniably became one of the "pillars" of Chinese football. This incident seriously damaged the foundation of Chinese football and was also one of Du Zhaocai's most unforgivable crimes.
Du Zhaocai's six years at the helm of the Chinese Football Association have left deep scars one after another. The former head of the Chinese Football Association has been formally arrested, and the severe punishment of the law awaits him. His administration has not only reshaped the order of the Chinese Super League, but also intertwined with Chen Jiayuan's power struggle, leaving indelible scars on Chinese football. Now, Chinese football needs to work together to repair these injuries and return to the peak of glory.
