Once a prominent figure in Chinese football, Li Tie was sentenced to 20 years for his involvement in over 100 million yuan of illegal assets. He appeared calm and retained the opportunity to appeal. This verdict sparked widespread discussion, with some questioning the disparity in sentencing compared to Chen Xuyuan, who received life imprisonment for a lesser amount. As Li Tie's case unfolded, it exposed a web of corruption, from being persuaded to participate in match-fixing to implicating intermediaries like Liu Yi and even leading to the downfall of Gou Zhongwen. The revelation that Li Tie's misdeeds began before he became the national team coach has shaken the football community. Fans are disheartened by the extent of underhanded dealings within the sport. The involvement of high-ranking officials like Gou Zhongwen, who was caught up in shady operations related to major events like the Asian Cup hosting rights and the Winter Olympics, further eroded public trust. Despite the turmoil, Gao Hongbo, a former vice-chairman of the Football Association, remained untainted. He expressed regret over the events but also optimism that the industry would improve following this scandal. This could be a fresh start for the national team, with hopes that Chinese football will clean house and return to its pure sporting roots. Online discussions reflect mixed opinions. Some believe Li Tie's sentence is too lenient and should be increased to deter others, while others argue that his cooperation in exposing deeper corruption merits consideration in sentencing. Regardless, there is a collective wish for Chinese football to seize this opportunity to reform…

Hé Xiǎolóng: Liú Guóliáng's Actions Are a First in China's Sports Circle, More Destructive Than the Football Association Leadership Famous sports journalist He Xiaolong recently continued to explode with strong material, severely criticized the chaos of table tennis fan circle, and pointed the finger directly at the head of the national table tennis team Liu Guoliang. During the live broadcast, someone asked him, "Is Li Tie more destructive to the football ecosystem or Liu Guoliang more destructive to the table tennis ecosystem?" This is how he answered. He said that it is inappropriate to compare these two people together. The one who should be compared with Liu Guoliang is the leadership of the Football Association, and he also specifically mentioned that it is a "failed leadership of the Football Association." He Xiaolong has been deeply engaged in the field of football before and has a good understanding of the football circle. He believes that it is a fact that the national football team is very bad, and there are various problems inside, which is undeniable. However, we cannot attribute all the blame to the chairman of the Football Association alone. In fact, compared with Liu Guoliang, the seemingly high-ranking and powerful chairman of the Football Association actually has limited power. They can only issue orders in the national team and have limited control over local clubs. They cannot decide on specific matters of local clubs. On the other hand, Liu Guoliang's power is so great that collective decision-making fails. It can be said that the national table tennis team is…

In the arena of sports, every move can potentially cause a huge stir. Recently, a major decision by the Sports Administration has sent shockwaves through the calm waters, akin to a giant stone being thrown into a tranquil lake. This time, the Sports Administration has taken decisive action, targeting the fan culture that has become a storm center in table tennis. Table tennis, as our national sport, has always been highly regarded and loved. Liu Guoliang, a figure of great influence in the table tennis world and the driving force behind the commercialization of WTT, harbors a grand dream of promoting table tennis globally. He aspires to leverage the WTT platform to gain more attention and support for table tennis worldwide, much like the WTA tennis events. However, while the ideal is full, the reality is bony. As WTT develops, fan culture has gradually infiltrated and spiraled out of control, far from what Liu Guoliang had anticipated. Among various sports, the chaos of fan culture in table tennis is particularly severe. Several Olympic champions from the national team are the focus of fan attention. They strive on the court to win glory for the country and should receive pure respect and support. However, in reality, their daily lives are greatly affected. No matter where they go, fans chase after them, even during training and rest, they cannot find peace. Those fanatical fans, in order to get close to their idols, engage in many irrational behaviors. At the competition site, some fans make a ruckus, completely disregarding the normal order of…

Recently, a storm regarding the fan culture in the sports circle has been sweeping across, with its extensive scope and great intensity of rectification, causing shock throughout the entire sports world. The fan culture originally led by the national table tennis team has now become the focus of the General Administration of Sport's crackdown. From the open call of the People's Daily to the rapid response of the national table tennis team, this series of actions were completed within a short span of one day, demonstrating the firm determination and efficient execution of the General Administration of Sport in rectifying the fan culture. The core of the General Administration of Sport's rectification action lies in severely cracking down on the distorted fan culture to ensure the healthy development of the sports industry. According to well-known sports media personality Fu Zhenghao, the General Administration of Sport will issue a document titled "Several Opinions on Firmly Resisting Distorted 'Fan Culture' to Ensure the Healthy Development of the Sports Industry." This document will require the entire national sports system to participate in the rectification action, starting with the dissolution of fan groups and gradually advancing various specific measures. This move reflects the General Administration of Sport's attention to the fan culture issue and highlights its determination to rectify the healthy development of the sports industry. As an authoritative media outlet, the People's Daily also played an important role in this rectification action. It used the example of several national badminton athletes dissolving their fan groups to call for more sports projects to learn…

Recently, the Chinese General Administration of Sport held a meeting to focus on cracking down on the "fan culture" phenomenon in the sports world. Many athletes and coaches have taken the lead in responding to the call, dissolving their fan groups. Although national team athletes have achieved their results through hard work and competition, without deliberately creating so-called "star athletes," several "top streamers" have emerged over time. For example, Sun Yingsha and Wang Chuqin from the national table tennis team, as well as Pan Zhanle, Liang Weikang, and Wang Chang who broke through at the Paris Olympics. The sports world's resistance to fan culture has received much acclaim from passersby but has also drawn some dissatisfaction from fans of certain athletes. On January 14, 2015, the General Administration of Sport convened a meeting in Beijing based on the current "fan culture" and systemic ideological issues in the sports world. The main content of the meeting was to resist the "star athlete" phenomenon and focus on rectifying and striking against behaviors that "fan culture" the sports world, avoiding the distorted growth of sports enthusiasts. In recent years, the "fan circle" phenomenon has been severe, with fan groups fervently pursuing star idols. This has led to big-name actors in the entertainment industry not relying on works but instead gaining exposure by hyping personas and CPs, even giving birth to "variety show stars." The most serious impact of the "fan circle" phenomenon is on those fan groups. They do not pay attention to an actor's work or a singer's songs; they only focus…

In recent years, fan culture has spread vigorously in society, but are you aware that this force is quietly eroding the sports world, especially top-level sports projects like the national table tennis team? The fervent adoration of star fans seems to be a boost to the sports industry, yet its negative impacts compel us to reflect: Is this "love" more about support or causing trouble? When it comes to the national table tennis team, what comes to mind is their illustrious record: countless gold medals, formidable strength, and the solid foundation of the "Table Tennis Kingdom." Fan Zhendong, as the leader of the national table tennis team, has repeatedly secured the world's number one ranking with his outstanding performance on the court. However, despite his numerous glories, he cannot escape the troubles brought by "fan culture." The fervent pursuit of fans not only brings glory under the spotlight but also causes more disturbances and pressure in daily life. Extreme fans' excessive interference even affects Fan Zhendong's daily life and competitive state. This issue not only troubles Fan Zhendong himself but has also drawn the attention of the General Administration of Sport, becoming a reality that the entire sports industry must confront. The greatest harm of fan culture may be blind worship and emotional失控. Competitive sports, which should be based on strength, are influenced by this excessive emotionalization. Fans are no longer satisfied with supporting their idols on the field; they turn their attention to beyond the field, frequently interfering with athletes' private spaces and even directly impacting their lives and…

Yesterday, Wang Chuqin's fan club proactively disbanded its fan group, drawing public attention. The national table tennis team has taken the initiative to cut ties with fan culture, but what actions will follow? Renowned media personality He Xiaolong posted an analysis on social media this afternoon, revealing that Liu Guoliang has yet to disband his own fan group, and he firmly believes that Liu Guoliang is finished. Despite Wang Chuqin disbanding his fan group, demonstrating a stance of distancing from fan culture, Liu Guoliang, as the head of the national table tennis team, still has not disbanded his fan groups, with five or six still in existence. This stands in stark contrast to the current requirements of the General Administration of Sport to crack down on fan culture. In He Xiaolong's view, why hasn't Liu Guoliang disbanded his own fan groups? Is there no one who has had a heartfelt conversation with him? There is only one reason: he is definitely finished, with others avoiding him and keeping their distance. He Xiaolong used a profound statement to express his thoughts: "Why is it that in such a chaotic table tennis circle, no one has severely criticized him or even published warnings against him? In matters like these, calmness is most feared." He Xiaolong criticized a claim that Liu Guoliang made significant contributions to the commercialization of national table tennis. His main arguments are twofold. Firstly, before Liu Guoliang, the commercialization of national table tennis relied on Zhang Jike; without Liu Guoliang, fan culture could still form, just not in a…

Recently, the crackdown on fan culture chaos in the sports world by the General Administration of Sport has become a focal point of attention. Athletes such as Wang Chuqin have actively cooperated in disbanding their fan groups, and against this backdrop, the merits and demerits of Liu Guoliang's role in the development of the national table tennis team have sparked intense discussions and in-depth scrutiny. The national table tennis team's feat of sweeping five gold medals at the Paris Olympics is undoubtedly a significant achievement in the history of Chinese sports. During his tenure as head coach, Liu Guoliang led the team with remarkable coaching skills and tactical arrangements, forging numerous glorious moments and making indelible contributions to the enduring success of China's table tennis. However, after assuming the position of chairman of the Chinese Table Tennis Association, the situation subtly changed. Some argue that the team began experiencing internal attrition during this period, with hidden crises undermining its strength behind the achievements. Taking the "three golden flowers" of the women's team—Sun Yingsha, Wang Manyu, and Chen Meng—as examples, we can clearly discern the issues at hand. Sun Yingsha, endowed with exceptional talent and superior skills, should have shone even brighter on the court, but was swept into an excessive hype vortex due to the implementation of a grand marketing plan. The over-marketing packaged her as a champion, burdening her with heavy psychological pressure before she had truly reached that level. In the Olympic women's singles final, after a crushing performance in the first game, she experienced mental breakdowns in…

Official Arrest! The Largest Official Position in China's Sports World to Date, Liu Guoliang and Cai Zhenhua Deeply Affected For the sake of wealth, people die; for the sake of food, birds perish.‌ From the Chinese men's football team to the men's basketball team, many people have been scolded by fans for years due to personal relationships and interests. Behind this, anti-corruption work in the sports world has become a top priority. On May 30th, after the news broke that Gou Zhongwen, the director of the General Administration of Sport of China, was under investigation, people began to pay close attention to the changes in China's sports world. Now, the case of Gou Zhongwen's investigation has finally come to a conclusion! On December 12th, Gou Zhongwen was "double-opened," and just a few days later, he was formally arrested. His downfall can be described as a mixed bag of joy and sorrow for different parties. The official report exposed his crimes, revealing even more thoroughly the series of vile actions he had committed in the past, especially these four major operations that caused chaos in the entire Chinese sports world, deeply affecting Liu Guoliang and Cai Zhenhua! It was astonishing that Gou Zhongwen could become the director of the General Administration of Sport of China because, before that, almost all the paths he had taken were related to various information research and engineering, with no connection to sports at all. However, he also relied on his abilities to rise step by step, becoming one of the "candidates" for the director of…

Recently, several athletes and coaches from the Chinese badminton team have disbanded their fan groups, drawing significant public attention. This move has been widely supported by public opinion, with some netizens asking, "When will the national table tennis team disband their fan groups?" The national table tennis team responded quickly and quietly, with Wang Chuqin dissolving his own fan group. Why did multiple national badminton athletes and Wang Chuqin dissolve their fan groups within a short period of time? This time, there seems to be a consensus among all parties to crack down on the fan circle culture. The last "message" left by the national badminton athletes before dissolving their fan groups On January 14th, at the special meeting on ideological work in the sports bureau system and the governance of the "fan circle" chaos, Gao Zhidan, director and party secretary of the General Administration of Sport, pointed out that the governance of the "fan circle" chaos should be treated as an urgent task to be seized and implemented. Of course, this is not the first time the General Administration of Sport has publicly stated its intention to severely rectify the fan circle culture. As early as May last year, the General Administration of Sport expressed at the national sports publicity and culture conference that the national sports system will resolutely resist the erosion of the distorted "fan circle culture" in the field of sports throughout the process. It was also emphasized at the meeting that the chaos in the "fan circle" is extremely detrimental to the healthy growth of…
