On August 28, Beijing time, there was a contract dispute between Zhou Qi and Xinjiang that was fermenting recently, and Yang Qian, a domestic media person, published an article revealing that Zhou Qi left Liaoning to join Xinjiang that year, mainly because Xinjiang provided two more sets of housing, and the rest of the quotations were similar. This plunged Zhou Qi into the center of the whirlpool of public opinion.

But then a former Liaoning youth training team member, Meng Xiangyu, who was also Zhou Qi's teammate at that time, directly recorded a video, and personally revealed details about Zhou Qi's departure from Liaoning that year.
Meng Xiangyu said that in 2013, Zhou Qi played the National Games on behalf of the Liaoning team, and after winning the championship, he very much wanted to stay, and conducted two rounds of negotiations with the Liaoning team. During the first round of negotiations, Zhou Qi received an offer from Xinjiang, and Meng Xiangyu highlighted the offer in Xinjiang at that time, which was 6 times that of Liaoning, saying that Liaoning's treatment offer was only one-sixth of Xinjiang's. But Zhou Qi still wants to stay in Liaoning at this time, because he has feelings for Liaoning and accepts Liaoning's lower offer, but other aspects have to be talked about again.
In the second round of negotiations after that, a domestic agent representing the Liaoning team gave Zhou Qi only one-sixth of the offer in Xinjiang to continue to decrease, which directly made Zhou Qi accept the offer from Xinjiang and finally leave. Throughout his CBA career, Zhou Qi has only represented the Xinjiang team at present, and in 2019, Liaoning wanted to sign Zhou Qi with an annual salary of 25 million, but failed to do so. Meng Xiangyu also made it clear that the representatives of Liaoning at that time thought that Zhou Qi was not worth such a high price, and the liaoning team did not have much general income for players at that time, and it was small in the entire CBA league, which was the reason why Zhou Qi chose to leave and join Xinjiang. The operation of the Liaoning team seemed disrespectful at the time.
If Meng Xiangyu revealed the truth, then liaoning originally lost Zhou Qi is not surprising, after all, professional players eat youth meals, Xinjiang offers 6 times more than Liaoning, Zhou Qi was only 18 years old at that time, in such a situation, choosing a large contract is beyond reproach.
In fact, the Liaoning team has always had contradictions with players in terms of salary, the most typical example is the renewal of Guo Allen's contract in 2015, as the façade of Liaoning basketball for nearly a decade, in 2015, Guo Allen was still deadlocked with the club on the issue of annual salary, and talked about the end of the offseason. At that time, Guo Allen also needed to play the Asian Championship for the national team, and due to the stalemate in the negotiations, he missed the registration time of the new season, and it was then the basketball association that gave the green light that Guo Allen was able to register.
Few people can be the same as Han Dejun, at the peak of the domestic other clubs with annual salaries of up to tens of millions, plus real estate account offers, but still choose to stay in Liaoning. Not every player is Han Dejun, and it cannot be required that every player be Han Dejun.
There is a resume about Meng Xiangyu, he was born in 1995, 2 meters 18 tall, is a Native of Liaoning, born in Liaoning Youth Training, and Zhao Jiwei and Zhou Qi have been teammates. In 2011, he went to the United States to play, signed a contract with the Tianjin men's basketball team in 2014, but was exposed to the situation of "the goods are not right", 2 meters 18 height in training but even dunks are difficult, and now Meng Xiangyu has not played professional games, only 26 years old. In the video of this revelation, Meng Xiangyu stressed: Zhou Qi is my brother.
