In the international arena of sports, the Chinese women's volleyball team was once a shining star, especially after winning the gold medal at the 2016 Rio Olympics. The team's glory made many proud. However, as time passed, the team's performance significantly declined, causing concern among countless fans. The failure at the Tokyo Olympics marked a turning point. As defending champions, the Chinese women's volleyball team failed to advance from the group stage, leaving many fans utterly disappointed. Many believe that the team's poor form should be attributed to the coach and players' performances, with head coach Lang Ping and captain Zhu Ting becoming the focus of public discussion. However, unexpectedly, recent anti-corruption actions have uncovered a deeper layer of secrets. Former director of the Chinese Volleyball Association, Li Quanqiang, was investigated for serious violations of discipline and law. This news not only shocked the volleyball world but also prompted people to reflect on the management of volleyball. Li Quanqiang's downfall is not an isolated case. As early as 2015, former director Pan Zhichen was also investigated for similar reasons and ultimately imprisoned. The successive investigations of two directors suggest that there may be deeper issues within Chinese volleyball. This makes one wonder if the decline in the team's performance is directly related to mismanagement by the Volleyball Association. During the Tokyo Olympics, Lang Ping and Zhu Ting faced immense pressure. Amid external doubts and criticism, their efforts seemed overlooked. Often, coaching decisions are not entirely based on personal will but influenced by management. Lang Ping, with her rich experience and…

In the development history of Chinese women's volleyball, the decisions and management of the Volleyball Association play a crucial role. As fans eagerly await the confirmation of a new coach for the Chinese women's volleyball team and the construction of the squad to prepare for the 2025 World Championships, a major incident involving the Volleyball Association has made it a focus of public attention. On January 10th, former director of the Volleyball Management Center, Li Quanqiang, was reported to be involved in serious violations of law and discipline and was taken away for investigation. This incident is like a huge stone thrown into a calm lake, causing waves, and also making the Volleyball Association a hot topic on search engines. In the chain reaction of this event, the history of personnel changes in the Volleyball Management Center has also been re-examined by the public. Looking back, after Xu Li stepped down, Pan Zhichen took office at the Volleyball Management Center. One of Pan Zhichen's landmark moves during his tenure was to recall Lang Ping as head coach. Lang Ping's return had immeasurable significance for Chinese women's volleyball; she brought with her rich coaching experience and outstanding tactical concepts, infusing new vitality into the team. However, Pan Zhichen was taken away for investigation due to his own previous issues, which was undoubtedly a significant setback in the development history of the Volleyball Management Center. After Pan Zhichen, Vice Director Liu Wenbin began to take charge of work. Liu Wenbin is known as a "veteran" figure at the Volleyball Management Center, having…

This afternoon, Li Quanqiang, the former director of the Volleyball Management Center of the General Administration of Sport, was investigated, becoming a hot topic on the internet. For many fans, the ups and downs of the Chinese women's volleyball team over the years have been directly related to Li Quanqiang. As the first high-ranking official in the volleyball field to be investigated, Li Quanqiang's downfall may uncover problems that have long been hidden in the volleyball field. The reason why Li Quanqiang's investigation has caused such a stir is that he has been deeply involved in the Chinese volleyball world for too long. From 1997 to 2022, for 25 years, Li Quanqiang has been a senior manager in the volleyball world, serving as the leader of the men's and women's volleyball teams, and finally retiring from his position as the top leader of volleyball. Over the years, no matter how the women's volleyball team performed, even in the face of tragic defeats, Li Quanqiang's position remained unshakable, making him known as the "indestructible" figure in the Chinese volleyball world. Moreover, when Li Quanqiang was finally investigated, he was the top leader of the Volleyball Management Center, with significant influence. Long-term, the Chinese volleyball world has not received much attention from the outside world, except during major events like the Olympics and World Championships for the women's team, and people rarely pay attention to the development of volleyball, especially the men's team. Therefore, with Li Quanqiang's investigation, people are curious about how the corrupt interest chain in the volleyball world was…

Chinese Women's Volleyball Team is the only team among China's men's and women's three major ball sports to have reached the highest podium at the Olympics. Therefore, we are always eagerly anticipating their performance at each Olympic Games, hoping that they can recreate their past glory. However, from finishing ninth at the Tokyo Olympics to fifth at the Paris Olympics, although they did not remain stagnant, the results were far from our expectations. The team's injuries were one issue, but it also seemed that there were problems within the team itself. Especially during interviews, the team constantly emphasized unity and even organized military training, which made us feel that things might not be as they appeared on the surface. This feeling was particularly strong after the Olympic roster was announced, as it did not seem to be the optimal choice. Not long ago, Gou Zhongwen, the former top official of the General Administration of Sport, was investigated, followed by issues in basketball and football, which made us vaguely sense that the volleyball circle might also need to undergo some testing. On January 10th, a significant announcement was made: Li Quanqiang, the former head of the Volleyball Management Center, was under investigation for serious violations of discipline and law. Li Quanqiang became the director of the Volleyball Management Center after our victory at the Rio Olympics in 2017 and retired from his position in August 2022. At that time, Lai Yawen was the deputy director, and after Li Quanqiang's retirement, Lai Yawen officially succeeded him as the director and party secretary…

On the podium in Paris, Quan Hongchan once again stood at the highest position. With an entry as perfect as a textbook, she successfully defended her gold medal in the women's individual 10-meter diving event at the Olympics. This should have been a moment of immense pride for the nation, but amidst the waves of praise, a conflict quietly emerged. During a live broadcast, Zhu Xiaolong, a reporter from Southern Daily, unreservedly mocked Quan Hongchan as a "fool" and "crazy," instantly igniting the anger of the entire internet. The truth of the matter has yet to be revealed, but public anger has already pointed directly at this journalist—a person who should base their work on facts and respect. The question is, what does such speech mean in the face of professional ethics and social morality? Quan Hongchan, the diving prodigy who became famous with a single jump at the Tokyo Olympics, was only 14 years old when she permanently inscribed the achievement of a "perfect dive" into Olympic history. From that moment on, her life was completely rewritten, transforming from a small rural girl into a sports star watched by her village, the whole country, and even the world. However, the fame brought not only applause but also overwhelming attention, and sometimes inexplicable harsh criticism. In the years since her fame, public opinion has never stopped focusing on her. Not only are they concerned about her performance in competitions, but they also comment on her personality and lifestyle. There were reports that she likes to eat snacks during training breaks,…

Recently, Wang Nan's husband, Guo Bin, discussed the current main player of the national table tennis team, Sun Yingsha, in a live broadcast, sparking controversy among domestic fans! At that time, it was suspected that a fan in the live broadcast room suggested that Guo Bin had benefited from Sun Yingsha's fame, to which Guo Bin responded with disdain: "I'm not riding on her coattails, what does her popularity have to do with me?" Guo Bin's remarks caused intense discussion among domestic fans. Some even believed that Guo Bin used foul language, which was inappropriate for his status. However, there were also fans who pointed out that Wang Nan and her husband not only did not benefit from Sun Yingsha's fame but also contributed their own efforts to the development of the national table tennis team! After the Tokyo Olympics, Wang Nan and her husband publicly declared on social media that they would gift a set of properties to each gold and silver medalist of the national table tennis team, as well as the head coaches of the men's and women's teams. In total, Wang Nan and her husband gifted nine sets of properties. It is worth noting that to avoid unnecessary trouble, Guo Bin also stated on social media: "To avoid some people's unrealistic fantasies, the rewarded houses will not use products under his brand or those in collaboration with his brand." Fast forward to the 2024 Paris Olympics, where the men's and women's teams of the national table tennis team successfully won all gold medals in five events.…

Recently, former Chinese women's volleyball team captain Hui Ruoqi posted a video on her personal social media platform showing her sister Hui Ruoxuan being proposed to, which sparked intense discussion among domestic netizens and fans! In the video, Hui Ruoxuan, Hui Ruoqi's sister, stands at the center of the venue while her boyfriend shouts loudly, "Hui Ruoxuan, marry me," with his voice echoing throughout the hall. Following this, Hui Ruoxuan and her boyfriend embrace passionately amidst thunderous applause from the audience. Hui Ruoqi, taking advantage of her height, also played the role of a photographer at the scene. Upon learning that Hui Ruoqi's sister Hui Ruoxuan has been proposed to, many netizens and fans may share the same feeling as the editor, believing that it was not long ago when Hui Ruoxuan's high school graduation vlog was released, and now she has already been proposed to by her boyfriend. However, upon careful consideration of the timeline, it seems quite fitting, considering that it has been eight years since the Chinese women's volleyball team won the Rio Olympics. In 2013, Hui Ruoqi began serving as the captain of the Chinese women's volleyball team and achieved second place at the 2014 Women's Volleyball World Championship, creating the best performance in 16 years. At the 2016 Rio Olympics, under Hui Ruoqi's leadership, the Chinese women's volleyball team overcame numerous challenges to reach the final, where they defeated the Serbian women's volleyball team with a score of 3-1, successfully winning the championship. As the captain of the Chinese women's volleyball team, Hui Ruoqi stood…

In recent years, China's national team has been in the limelight at the Olympics, firmly securing a top-three position on both the medal and gold medal standings. However, the performance of the "big three" sports has been a cause for concern, especially the once-proud Chinese women's volleyball team. From being eliminated in the group stage at the Tokyo Olympics to stopping at the quarter-finals in Paris, the achievements of the volleyball players have plummeted like a slide. Among these, the name of Gou Zhongwen, the former director of the General Administration of Sport, has been frequently mentioned, becoming a target of public criticism. Recently, good news arrived: Gou Zhongwen has been officially arrested! This "big shot" who had a profound impact on the Chinese sports world during his tenure has finally faced legal judgment. His arrest raises the question: does it mean that the Chinese women's volleyball team, and even the entire Chinese sports world, will undergo a thorough cleansing and rebirth? Speaking of Gou Zhongwen, one cannot help but mention his reforms during his tenure, particularly those concerning the national table tennis team. In 2017, Liu Guoliang was "promoted" from head coach of the national table tennis team to vice-chairman of the Chinese Table Tennis Association, which appeared to be a promotion in title but was actually a stripping of power. This change directly triggered a strike within the national table tennis team, with many top players expressing their longing for Liu Guoliang and their dissatisfaction with the reforms on social media. During those difficult times, the national table…
