Just entering 2025, the anti-corruption campaign targeting China's sports sector has achieved further results. Li Quanqiang, the former "top leader" of the Volleyball Management Center and the former director of the Volleyball Sports Management Center of the General Administration of Sport, was taken away for investigation on suspicion of serious violations of law and discipline. Perhaps many fans are not familiar with Li Quanqiang, but during his tenure, he had many conflicts with Lang Ping, the former meritorious coach of the Chinese women's volleyball team. It can even be said that behind the defeat of the Chinese women's volleyball team at the Tokyo Olympics, there was Li Quanqiang's absurd guidance. Interestingly, after Li Quanqiang's downfall, famous reporter He Xiaolong named the Chinese women's volleyball team and the national table tennis team on social media platforms, indicating that they will be the focus of this year's anti-corruption efforts. Li Quanqiang is different from most leaders within China's sports system in that he did not come from an athletic background. After graduating from Shenyang Physical Education College in the 1980s, he directly entered the Cultural and Educational Department of the State Physical Culture and Sports Commission's Science and Education Department as a staff member. In November 1997, Li Quanqiang began serving as the director of the office of the State Physical Culture and Sports Commission's Volleyball Sports Management Center. Throughout his career, he also served as the leader of the Chinese women's volleyball team several times, and in March 2006, he began serving as the deputy director of the Volleyball Sports Management…

On January 10th, at 4 PM in 2025, the Chinese volleyball world was shaken once again as Li Quanqiang, the former director of the Volleyball Management Center under the General Administration of Sport, was investigated for serious violations of discipline and law. As a key figure in the Volleyball Management Center, Li Quanqiang not only led the professionalization reform of the volleyball league but also traveled to the United States in 2017 to promote Lang Ping's return to lead the Chinese women's volleyball team. However, these promises and plans now seem more ironic after Li Quanqiang's downfall. The reform has failed to achieve significant results, and the volleyball industry has not only failed to maintain its glory but has instead fallen into a trough. In February 2017, Li Quanqiang officially took office, replacing his predecessor. At that time, the Chinese women's volleyball team had just won the championship at the Rio Olympics and was highly regarded nationwide. In this context, Li Quanqiang was tasked with continuing the glory of the Chinese women's volleyball team. Faced with concerns about Lang Ping's health and doubts about the future of the women's volleyball team, Li Quanqiang repeatedly expressed confidence in Lang Ping's reappointment as head coach of the Chinese women's volleyball team after taking office. Subsequently, Lang Ping did return to the national team and led the Chinese women's volleyball team through a new round of Olympic preparations. Although China won the 2019 Women's Volleyball World Cup with an undefeated record of eleven consecutive victories, the failure at the Tokyo Olympics brought this…

Recently, according to official news, Li Quanqiang, the former director of the Volleyball Management Center of the General Administration of Sport, is suspected of serious violations and is currently under investigation by relevant authorities. He can be said to be a "big termite" in the field of Chinese sports! The news that Li Quanqiang, the former director of the Volleyball Management Center, was under investigation has sparked heated discussions among domestic fans. Unlike football, volleyball has always been a traditional strength project for the Chinese team, especially the Chinese women's volleyball team. As a result, some fans speculate that the anti-corruption wind has blown into the volleyball world. However, it must be said that during Li Quanqiang's five-year tenure, the performance of the Chinese women's volleyball team was indeed not very good, and could even be said to have plummeted! It is understood that Li Quanqiang began serving as the director of the Volleyball Management Center in February 2017, after the Rio Olympics. Entering the Tokyo Olympic cycle, the Chinese women's volleyball team began to decline. At the Tokyo Olympics, the Chinese women's volleyball team suffered a crushing defeat in the group stage, returning with broken feathers, only achieving ninth place, creating the worst record in the history of the Chinese women's volleyball team at the Olympics, triggering strong dissatisfaction from domestic fans. At that time, everyone attributed the failure of the Chinese women's volleyball team to head coach Lang Ping, believing that Lang Ping's tactical application was incorrect, leading to the crushing defeat of the Chinese women's volleyball team!…

After winning the gold medal at the Rio Olympics in 2016, the performance of the Chinese women's volleyball team has been on a downward trend. At the Tokyo Olympics, as defending champions, they lost three consecutive matches in the group stage and finished fifth, failing to qualify for the knockout rounds. Last year at the Paris Olympics, despite having Zhu Ting and Li Yingying in the lineup, the team unfortunately lost in the first round of the knockout stages to Turkey, finishing in fifth place. Over the past eight years, the Chinese women's volleyball team has faced numerous issues that have prevented them from improving their performance. Especially after the Tokyo Olympics, head coach Lang Ping and captain Zhu Ting faced a lot of criticism. The Volleyball Association even published an article blaming Lang Ping for the defeat, which caused strong dissatisfaction among fans and netizens, ultimately leading to Lang Ping's resignation in anger. Since then, the Chinese women's volleyball team has not returned to the peak of the Rio Olympics. Lang Ping originally wanted to continue coaching to prove herself, but the leadership of the Volleyball Association did not give her the opportunity. Finally, the leaders of the Volleyball Association were investigated! According to the latest news, Li Quanqiang, the former director of the Chinese Volleyball Association Center, is suspected of serious violations of discipline and law. He is currently under investigation by the Central Commission for Discipline Inspection and Supervision Group of the State Sports General Administration and the Supervision Committee of Yangzhou City, Jiangsu Province. Many old…

"Desiring to know what is straight, one must have a plumb line; desiring to know what is square, one must have a carpenter's square." In the field of sports, which should be full of vitality and fair competition, a recent wave of anti-corruption has surged forth. Since the investigation of Li Tie, the former head coach of the national football team, the football world has embarked on a frenzy of rectification. Du Zhaocai and Chen Xuyuan of the Football Association, among others, have fallen, and even the top sports official Gou Zhongwen was not spared. Now this storm has swept into the volleyball field. The official announcement reported that Li Quanqiang, the former director of the Volleyball Management Center of the General Administration of Sport, is suspected of serious problems and is currently under investigation by relevant departments. Li Quanqiang is a veteran in the volleyball field, having played an important role in the development of the Chinese women's volleyball team. Starting as the team leader of the women's volleyball team, he rose to the positions of deputy director and director. He served as the director of the Volleyball Center from February 2017 until his retirement at the age of eligibility in 2022. During this period, the development trajectory of the Chinese women's volleyball team underwent a huge change. Once a banner of Chinese sports, the Chinese women's volleyball team repeatedly won championships on the international stage and became a heroic team in the hearts of countless people. However, during the later part of his tenure, especially during the Tokyo…

As the former head of Chinese volleyball, Li Quanqiang's investigation was announced yesterday afternoon, causing a shock in the volleyball world. A topic of concern is whether Cai Bin, the head coach of the Chinese women's volleyball team, will renew his contract after not being seen since the Paris Olympics. Now that his mentor Li Quanqiang has been implicated, it seems difficult for Cai Bin to stay on. The current director of the Volleyball Management Center is Lai Yawen, and her good friend Lang Ping may return to take up the coaching position again. Cai Bin began his second stint as head coach of the women's volleyball team in early 2022, which coincided with Lai Yawen becoming the director of the Volleyball Management Center. Prior to this, Li Quanqiang retired at the end of 2021 due to age. It can be said that when Cai Bin returned to coach the women's volleyball team, Lai Yawen did not take the lead; it was still Li Quanqiang who was in charge. When Cai Bin took office, his main task was the Paris Olympics. In the end, he led the women's volleyball team to three consecutive victories in the group stage of the Paris Olympics but was eliminated in the first round of the knockout stage, ultimately failing to reach the semi-finals. However, compared to the results of the Tokyo Olympics in 2021 under Lang Ping's leadership, there was some improvement. After the Paris Olympics, opinions were divided on Cai Bin's performance. Some believe that his coaching record has improved and should continue…

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…

Currently, our country places great emphasis on the three major ball sports. Overall, volleyball is the best-developed among them! After all, the Chinese women's volleyball team has won Olympic gold medals. The worst is undoubtedly football, especially men's football, with very few appearances in the Olympics. Therefore, when multiple bigwigs in Chinese football were implicated in scandals, people didn't find it surprising! However, what was unexpected is that there were also bigwigs implicated in Chinese volleyball! Recently, according to official announcements, Li Quanqiang, the former director of the Volleyball Management Center of the General Administration of Sport, is under investigation for serious violations. Obviously, Li Quanqiang is a big termite in the Chinese women's volleyball team and also a big termite in the Chinese sports world! Eliminating these big termites has made netizens cheer and rejoice! The previous Chinese football world saw a series of corruption cases! Including the Chinese Football Association (CFA) Chairman Chen Xuyuan, Vice-Chairman Du Zhaocai, Secretary-General Liu Yong, and Disciplinary Committee Director Wang Xiaoping, more than ten executives were involved. Now, it's the turn of Chinese volleyball! Will there be a series of corruption cases? Public information shows that Li Quanqiang is already 63 years old and has been retired for two and a half years! He can be considered a bigwig in Chinese volleyball. He once served as the leader of both the Chinese men's and women's volleyball teams.

The Chinese women's volleyball team has always been the face of China's three major ball sports. However, their performance in the last two Olympics has been disappointing, with a ninth-place finish and a fifth-place finish, which did not meet expectations. After Lang Ping was ousted from her position as head coach and criticized by the Volleyball Association, it became clear that there were internal issues within the team. The ninth-place result cannot be attributed solely to the head coach, but aside from removing Lang Ping, no other effective measures seem to have been taken. After Cai Bin took over from Lang Ping, despite his rigid selection of players, lack of passion in coaching, and questionable choices, he still managed to complete the entire cycle. Much like Wang Yunlu defended Cai Bin after being eliminated, Cai Bin often felt helpless, so he is likely just an executor rather than a decision-maker, and his coaching may have been constrained. On January 10th, when the news of Li Quanqiang's investigation was announced, it was truly heartening, as the women's volleyball team began to receive attention. The team's losses were not due to chance factors, and we look forward to the revelation of Li Quanqiang's crimes. Li Quanqiang's predecessor was Pan Zhichen, who was investigated in 2015 and ultimately sentenced to four years in prison for bribery in 2017, with a fine of 300,000 yuan. However, Pan Zhichen was investigated for problems in fencing, unrelated to volleyball. This time, Li Quanqiang's issues are definitely related to volleyball. Li Quanqiang has been the deputy director…
