Duan Xuan, a famous figure in Chinese sports, is shrouded in a mysterious silence. The former CCTV football commentator and sports media personality has disappeared for months, sparking a lot of public attention and speculation.
According to a Caixin report, Duan Xuan's disappearance is closely related to the case of Liu Aijie, former chairman of the China Rowing Association and China Canoe Association and former director of the Olympic Preparation Office of the General Administration of Sport of China. The news of Liu Aijie's investigation in April this year was officially announced by the Central Commission for Discipline Inspection and the State Supervision Commission, and Duan Xuan's last update on Weibo was on the afternoon of April 18, 2023. This sparked a desire to explore, which ignited their adventurous spirit.
Judging from the data of the circle of friends, Duan Xuan's personal dynamics disappeared half a year ago, and what is disturbing is that his personal information does not contain any relevant information. His Weibo is also not updated. The long silence was very surprising to those who knew Duan Xuan. In him, there doesn't seem to be any evaluation and expectation from the outside world about him. Duan Xuan has always been regarded as a central figure in the field of sports, and he has had a profound impact in the field of football commentary. He is full of affection for every moment on the football field, and with his unique and energetic words, he conveys the enthusiasm of the game to the crowd present. Therefore, his disappearance has undoubtedly aroused widespread concern in the media as well as in the fan base.
Regarding Liu Aijie's case, people are even more worried that Duan Xuan has not just lost contact. How did she go step by step to the road of crime? What kind of secret was hidden behind this case? How did he step by step go to the abyss? Was Duan Xuan involved in this incident? How did he step by step move from behind the scenes to the front of the stage? Everyone's eyes were full of longing and pursuit of the truth. All this will become a history that can never be forgotten. The unstable and volatile situation in China's sports sector has attracted widespread attention and concern. In this era of impetuousness, hustle, competition, and temptation, who can win honor in the true sense for our nation? A celebrity in the sports world who was once in the limelight is now unknown, and this is really a shocking and incomprehensible reality! What kind of story is behind her? Everyone is hoping that Duan Xuan will show her true face as soon as possible, reveal the truth of the matter, and provide an explanation for everyone.
In 1995, after completing his university studies, Duan Xuan stepped into CCTV and embarked on his career as a sports journalist. In the process, he went through the transition from amateur to professional to professional. In the process of pursuing progress and breakthroughs, Duan Xuan is not just satisfied with being an ordinary sports news reporter. After a few years of training, he gradually grew into an excellent TV sports journalist. In 1996, he was not only a reporter for the "Football Night" program, but also starred as the host of the "Football Gathering" program. With his unique appeal and deep expertise, he has won the affection and respect of his audience. During the year, he interviewed many famous domestic and foreign football stars. In 1998, as the World Cup in France approached, Duan Xuan got many opportunities to participate. During this year, he transitioned from a regular fan to a professional footballer and began his professional career. This is his first World Cup appearance, and he has taken on the responsibility of choreographing and directing from behind. He saw the World Cup on TV and witnessed a lot of great footage. This experience gave him a deeper understanding of the stories behind football matches and how they are organised, and allowed him to gradually emerge in the world of sports.
On November 27, 2000, Duan Xuan stepped into another critical moment in his career. He has already served as the host of the "World Football" program. In this role, he has the opportunity to meet with footballers from around the world, listen to their individual life stories, share their passions, and share these memorable moments with a wide audience. In the 2002 South Korea-Japan World Cup, Duan Xuan once again got a rare opportunity. He follows the most important event in world football with his own unique perspective and keen eye. This time, he served as a front-line reporter for CCTV's sports channel, providing viewers with first-hand exclusive news reports. He captured every moment on the field through the camera at the game site, and his voice presented an incomparable audio-visual feast for the audience.
Duan Xuan has endless enthusiasm for the World Cup, and in 2010, he arrived in South Africa with the CCTV World Cup reporting team and served as the football commentator for the South African World Cup. His commentary not only gives people a stunning visual impact, but also gives people a new understanding of the world of football. His voice echoes on the television screens at night, and his comments give the audience a taste of the passion and enthusiasm of the game from afar. His language is vivid and humorous, and his views are rational but not lacking in emotion. The 2014 FIFA World Cup in Brazil marked Duan Xuan's third appearance as a football commentator, presenting a series of heart-pounding matches with his easy-to-understand commentary. After two failures, he finally found his niche – to become a professional sports commentator and saw it as a way to achieve self-worth. In November 2015, Duan Xuan submitted his resignation to CCTV's sports department. He said that he no longer has the ability to work as a football commentator, and he wants to be a thoughtful and technical person. He sought to enter new fields of study and faced new challenges. In his opinion, his career has come to an end, and if he can't continue to maintain it, he will be eliminated by the times. December 22 marked an important shift as Duan Xuan chose the esports industry to become a part of Project Banana Sports and was appointed CEO.
April 2022 is undoubtedly a special moment that makes people sigh deeply. The once glorious Beijing banana movement has now disappeared in the long flow of time. As a professional football fan, I always miss the time I spent with the World Cup and the time I spent with football. It used to be a bustling city with dreams and soaring through the sky, but as time went on, it gradually lost itself. He was also a young man who loved sports, loved football, and had a strong passion. In the Chinese football world, the football commentator and host Duan Huo are well-known figures. He is a veteran football journalist, a professional football commentator, and a well-known sports agent who has been involved in the coverage of many major sporting events. He became the focus of the farce because he was suspected of bribing Liu Aijie, and the theme music of this farce is a symphony of investment and failure. From 2018 to 2020, the media often reported on the failure of investments, and Wang Sicong, a leading figure in the investment field, became the center of public attention. Nonetheless, the investment choices of these luminaries have had a profound impact on Beijing Banana Sports, like a violent storm that has swept through this unrivaled enterprise.
Beijing Banana Sports was originally a star who rose to prominence in the business competition, and its illustrious reputation was deeply awe-inspiring. In China, it is one of the first sports listed companies to enter the capital market. However, in this competitive investment market, it has suffered a cold shock. Wang Sicong's private shares were temporarily frozen by the Baoshan District Court in Shanghai, and it was a cold and heartless moment, like pressing an iceberg in everyone's hearts. Although Beijing Banana Sports was unsealed after its stake was frozen, it seems to have lost its former glory, like a dive plane that can no longer look up. In April 2022, this once-glorious business unfortunately disappeared without a trace and was written off.
Everyone had a lively discussion, and everyone's heart was full of sadness and regret. In this era of opportunities and challenges, football is no longer a pure game. What was once a dream and a love for football has become a callous victim of the passage of time. Now, when people are starting to be proud of the brand that once fascinated countless fans, they find that this once glorious company is on the verge of bankruptcy and liquidation. It may be an insignificant role in the gambling game, but it is a memory that will be hard to erase for those who have supported and loved it.
