For CBA teams, the end of the season often marks the beginning of a new round of reshuffling and change. After the intense playoff battle, the general managers of each team can't wait to get to work on preparations for next season. In this process, the renewal of the core players of each team is undoubtedly the most critical part.
As a CBA giant, the Guangdong men's basketball team, the biggest problem they face is undoubtedly how to retain the core player Ren Junfei. As we all know, Ren Junfei is a veteran of the Guangdong men's basketball team, with top experience and strength. But as he got older, he didn't have the same status in the team as he once was. For Ren Junfei, it will not be easy to accept the change of identity in the new season. At the same time, the Guangdong men's basketball team also needs to make more room for young players to develop. Under such contradictions, Ren Junfei may not be able to spend the rest of his basketball career in Guangdong with peace of mind.
At the same time, Zhou Qi's contract renewal issue also gave the Guangdong men's basketball team a headache. As the current mainstay of the Guangdong men's basketball team, Zhou Qi's performance has been stable and outstanding, and he is loved by fans. However, in the process of renewing the contract with the team, it was not all smooth sailing for both parties. Zhu Fangyu, general manager of the Guangdong men's basketball team, said frankly that the initiative to renew Zhou Qi's contract is not in the hands of the team, and some complex factors need to be paid attention to, such as signing fees. It can be seen that on the issue of Zhou Qi's contract renewal, the Guangdong men's basketball team is facing a lot of challenges.
What attracts attention is also the movement of former CBA star Allen Guo. Recently, Allen Guo has frequently interacted with actress Dai Yanni on social platforms, which has aroused heated discussions among fans. Famous player Han Dejun also joked about Guo Allen on social media, saying that he was "stupid in Spain". Such a move undoubtedly rekindled the fans' attention to Allen Guo, and everyone is looking forward to the "Iron Man" returning to the arena as soon as possible and bringing more exciting performances to the CBA.
Overall, this summer in the CBA is destined to be a time of great change. As the top team in the league, the Guangdong men's basketball team is facing many major choices. How to retain key players, how to make room for young people to develop, how to strengthen the strength of the whole team, these are all difficult problems in front of them. Equally interesting is Allen Guo's future movements, and fans are undoubtedly looking forward to the "Internet celebrity player" returning to the game as soon as possible to bring more exciting performances to the league.
In short, in this summer's CBA ball market, Ren Junfei, Zhou Qi and Guo Allen are undoubtedly the three most concerned figures. The question of whether they go or stay will undoubtedly affect the face of the alliance to a certain extent. Let's wait for the storm to come, let's witness the turmoil and change of the CBA this summer!
"Ren Junfei may become a bargaining chip, and Zhou Qi's contract renewal problem needs to be solved"
For the Guangdong men's basketball team, Ren Junfei is undoubtedly the most experienced veteran in the core of the team. As the team's highest-paid player, Ren Junfei has made great contributions to the Guangdong men's basketball team in the past many seasons and is an indispensable and important pillar of the team. But as he gets older, Ren Junfei's status in the team has also undergone subtle changes.
As we all know, the Guangdong men's basketball team has always attached great importance to the cultivation of young players. They hope to make more room for these young rookies to develop and become the backbone of the team as soon as possible. And this also means that Ren Junfei's status in the team will inevitably undergo some changes. After all, he's at the end of his career, and it's hard to show off the pitch like he used to.
Such a contradiction undoubtedly brought a lot of trouble to Ren Junfei's contract renewal. It's hard for him to accept that he's suddenly relegated to the team's bench or rotation, which is clearly a huge gap from his status and expectations as a top-paid player. Therefore, in this case, Ren Junfei's choice to leave the team is not an unexpected choice.
In this context, some media broke the news that the Guangdong men's basketball team may use Ren Junfei as a bargaining chip to trade with other teams. Specifically, they may trade Ren Junfei to the Sichuan men's basketball team, and get Zhu Songwei's signing rights and part of the financial compensation from the Sichuan men's basketball team. Once this deal is completed, it can not only make up for the shortcomings of the No. 3 position for the Guangdong men's basketball team, but also make more room for the development of young players, which can be said to kill two birds with one stone.
For Ren Junfei, going to the Sichuan men's basketball team is not a bad choice. Although the top-paid player of the Guangdong men's basketball team has been reduced to a substitute, this is undoubtedly a huge identity change. But in the young team of Sichuan, Ren Junfei can still give full play to his experience advantages and bring more stability to the team. At the same time, it also provides a new stage for Ren Junfei to spend the rest of his career.
Of course, the final outcome of this deal remains to be seen. After all, Ren Junfei is the old courtier of the Guangdong men's basketball team, and the team and fans have deep feelings for him. As a veteran giant in the CBA, the Guangdong men's basketball team also needs to seek a proper balance between rejuvenation and experience inheritance. Therefore, the question of Ren Junfei's stay will become one of the most concerned topics for the Guangdong men's basketball team this summer.
On the issue of Zhou Qi's contract renewal, the Guangdong men's basketball team is also facing a lot of difficulties. As the core of the team's internal line, Zhou Qi has always been an important pillar of the Guangdong men's basketball team. However, in the process of renewing the contract with the team, Zhu Fangyu admitted frankly that the initiative to renew the contract is not entirely in the hands of the team, and some complex factors need to be considered, such as signing fees.
This obviously means that Zhou Qi's contract renewal will not be achieved overnight.
As a top center, Zhou Qi naturally seeks to be treated better. As a giant team in the CBA, the Guangdong men's basketball team naturally hopes to retain such an outstanding core player. Such a game of interests has undoubtedly brought some obstacles to the renewal negotiations.
When Zhu Fangyu mentioned the issue of Zhou Qi's contract renewal, she deliberately emphasized the sensitive topic of "signature fee". This undoubtedly means that during the negotiation process, Zhou Qi may make some special demands, such as asking for a high signature fee. And while this practice may be controversial in terms of rules, it is not uncommon in practice.
However, as the top team in the CBA, the Guangdong men's basketball team will naturally not compromise easily. They must carefully weigh the pros and cons of Zhou Qi's contract renewal to ensure that they can control costs while also maximizing the team's combat strength. This is undoubtedly a complex process that requires intense games on both sides.
In addition, Zhou Qi's contract renewal also involves a series of complex issues such as retirement and resettlement. As one of the best interior players in the CBA, Zhou Qi must also have his own demands and considerations. As his owner, the Guangdong men's basketball team naturally needs to pay enough attention to and compromise on these details.
It can be said that Zhou Qi's contract renewal is undoubtedly one of the most troublesome problems for the Guangdong men's basketball team this summer. On the one hand, they need to keep this excellent interior core as much as possible; On the other hand, they must make concessions in terms of salary, status, etc. This will undoubtedly require careful weighing and negotiation between both parties to reach a solution that satisfies both parties.
Compared with the contract renewal issues of Ren Junfei and Zhou Qi, Guo Allen's movements may be more concerning. Not long ago, the former CBA "Internet celebrity" player frequently interacted with actress Dai Yanni on social platforms, which sparked heated discussions among fans. Famous player Han Dejun also joined the conversation, ridiculing Guo Allen on social media for "being stupid in Spain".
There is no doubt that Allen Guo is no longer the "Iron Man" who was popular on the whole network back then. But for the majority of CBA fans, they are still full of expectations and desires for this former "Internet celebrity" star. Everyone hopes to see Allen Guo return to the CBA arena as soon as possible and bring more wonderful performances to the league.
It is based on this wide range of fan expectations that Han Dejun's ridicule will cause such a strong response. As a friend and teammate of Allen Guo, Han Dejun is undoubtedly looking forward to the "Iron Man" returning to the court as soon as possible to inject new vitality into the team and the league.
Overall, in this upcoming CBA summer transfer window, Ren Junfei, Zhou Qi and Guo Allen are undoubtedly the three most watched figures. The question of whether they stay or stay will affect the pattern of the CBA league to a greater or lesser extent. We'll see what kind of exciting headwinds this upcoming "CBA Summer Storm" will have.
