As a seasoned commentator who has been following the sports circle for many years, I must say that the rumors I've seen in the past two days are both amusing and perplexing. This all started with He Xiaolong's Weibo post saying, "I think he has already been fired." As an old friend of the sports circle, I know that He Xiaolong always speaks passionately. However, this time he targeted Liu Guoliang, which really stunned everyone. But CCTV Sports Channel quickly responded with action - not only was Liu Guoliang not fired, but he also detailed the blueprint for the national table tennis team's next four years on the program. This dispelled those rumors. Honestly, after seeing Liu Guoliang's plan, I'm quite excited. Starting from the new cycle in 2025, the national table tennis team will vigorously cultivate newcomers! That's a great move. Just look at our national table tennis lineup to understand how wise this decision is. Ma Long is talking about retiring, Fan Zhendong is still undecided about playing until the Paris Olympics. On the women's side, Chen Meng is also nearing the age to consider retirement. In my opinion, Liu Guoliang is preparing for the future. Looking at the world table tennis scene, how young is Japan's Matsushima Koki? Isn't Tomokazu Ishihara also a young player? If we want our national table tennis team to continue to dominate, we have to take the step of cultivating new players. You may not know, but I just chatted with some industry friends the other day. They all say that the…

I've been following the national table tennis team for so many years, and I've never seen a storm like this one. He Xiaolong exploded on social media with the claim that "Liu Guoliang has been fired," immediately causing a huge stir in the sports circle. Honestly, my first reaction upon seeing this news was disbelief. Liu Guoliang had just led the national table tennis team to win multiple gold medals at the Paris Olympics, so how could he be fired so easily? However, He Xiaolong is an experienced sports journalist, so there must be some basis for what he said, right? After carefully examining He Xiaolong's claims, he targeted the "fan culture" within the national table tennis team. Indeed, after Chen Meng won the championship at the Paris Olympics, some unpleasant incidents occurred. Sun Yingsha's fans launched cyber attacks on Chen Meng, which made people uncomfortable to watch. He Xiaolong believes that this fan culture developed during Liu Guoliang's tenure. I have to say that the national table tennis team has indeed changed a lot in recent years. The players are no longer like they used to be, "deaf to outside affairs," but instead started appearing on variety shows and managing their personal social media accounts. On the one hand, this has made table tennis more popular among young people, but on the other hand, it has also brought about some troubles. Just as everyone was discussing, the CCTV "Sports News" on the evening of December 24 provided a clear answer. Liu Guoliang appeared at the National Sports Director's Meeting…

At the end of 2024, the Chinese sports world was not calm. A name, Liu Guoliang, carrying the glory and controversy of the national table tennis team, was pushed to the forefront of public attention. The rumors of "Liu Guoliang being fired" spread rapidly on the Internet like ripples, triggering heated discussions among fans and media. Looking back at Liu Guoliang's table tennis career, it can be called legendary. From being a "Grand Slam" winner in his player days to leading the national table tennis team to win gold and silver as a coach, and then taking charge of the Chinese Table Tennis Association, he has almost witnessed and participated in every glorious moment of the national table tennis team. However, in recent years, the "fan culture" that has emerged within the national table tennis team has become a shadow that cannot be dispelled during his tenure. Renowned journalist He Xiaolong took the lead in throwing out the "bomb." He posted several updates on social media platforms, directly stating that Liu Guoliang had been fired. He Xiaolong's argument was that the Chinese Table Tennis Association responded slowly and lacked action in the General Administration of Sport's campaign to rectify "fan culture," which he saw as a sign of "headless leadership." He even pointed the finger at Liu Guoliang for the "fan culture" within the national table tennis team, believing that his market-oriented strategy led to this chaos. He Xiaolong's remarks quickly ignited the public discourse. Fans speculated whether this meritorious leader of table tennis would really leave? For a time,…
