Recently, the news of the former director of the General Administration of Sport, Gou Zhongwen's formal arrest has once again pushed this controversial sports official to the forefront of public opinion. Looking back at Gou Zhongwen's various actions during his tenure at the General Administration of Sport, it is clear to see the profound impact his decisions have had on China's sports industry. Gou Zhongwen was born in June 1957 in Zhenyuan, Gansu. In 2016, he was transferred to serve as the director of the General Administration of Sport, marking the beginning of his most controversial career in China's sports world. Upon taking office, Gou Zhongwen demonstrated a strong desire for reform, but these reform measures ultimately caused many negative effects due to a lack of in-depth understanding and respect for the development laws of sports. The most representative event was the reform of the national table tennis head coach system. At the 2016 Rio Olympics, under the leadership of then-head coach Liu Guoliang, the Chinese table tennis team continued its past glorious record, sweeping all gold medals. However, against the backdrop of such a team achieving great success, Gou Zhongwen insisted on reforms, abolishing the effective head coach responsibility system. More confusingly, Liu Guoliang was removed from his position as head coach without warning, a decision that sparked significant controversy at the time. This sudden personnel change provoked a strong reaction from the national table tennis players. During the China Open held in Chengdu, including Ma Long, Fan Zhendong, Xu Xin, and other main players of the national table…

In 2024, the second stage of the Chinese Super League is about to begin. Many top players are preparing for the competition, eager to showcase their skills on the court. Among these highly anticipated athletes, Wang Chuqin stands out as one of the most prominent stars. The team he leads, Shandong Weiqiao, is highly regarded by fans, who hope to see them create new waves in the league and challenge for the championship. However, just before the start of the competition, Wang Chuqin encountered some unexpected minor incidents, adding twists to his journey. The day before he was scheduled to travel to Shanghai, Wang Chuqin faced an enthusiastic "surrounding" by fans at the airport. Despite being fully equipped with a hat, mask, and sunglasses, he could not escape the fans' keen eyes. The airport instantly turned into a scene of fan pursuit, with Wang Chuqin surrounded by fans asking for photos and autographs, causing a momentary loss of control. He appeared somewhat helpless and even jokingly shouted, "Everyone, please make way, this is too exaggerated!" Although the fans' enthusiasm caused him some headaches, it also reflected his high popularity, almost making the airport "boil." If the fan blockade at the airport was just a minor incident, then the next announcement of the top ten international athletes by Xinhua News Agency left Wang Chuqin slightly disappointed. In this highly anticipated list, only one Chinese athlete, Zheng Qinwen, was included, while Wang Chuqin was unexpectedly excluded. It should be noted that he is currently a hot figure in the table tennis world,…

In the hustle and bustle of the sports world, the hot topic on the 27th was undoubtedly the decision of Fan Zhendong and Chen Meng to withdraw from the international rankings. The online public opinion is almost unanimous, with everyone standing by Fan Zhendong and Chen Meng, believing that they are just bravely standing up against the unfair rules of WTT. In the hearts of fans, they have done nothing wrong; instead, they are fighting for their own rights. This decision by Fan Zhendong and Chen Meng is undoubtedly a challenge to the WTT rules, which will result in their points being reset. Moreover, since Liu Guoliang, the head of the national table tennis team, is the main driver of WTT, it means that the future possibility of Fan Zhendong and Chen Meng representing the national team in competitions is almost zero. In other words, they bid farewell to the national team stage in this way. From their statements, Fan Zhendong still wants to continue to represent Shanghai in the National Games, while whether Chen Meng will participate in the National Games remains uncertain. However, if they want to step onto the international arena again, they have basically no chance. While netizens are voicing their support for the two, they are also actively offering suggestions. Among them, a netizen named "Pea Cannon" proposed an ingenious suggestion. He strongly recommended that Fan Zhendong and Chen Meng join the Hong Kong or Macau teams and provided five reasons that sound quite reasonable. Firstly, Hong Kong or Macau can only be considered as…

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…

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.

Translation of the content: Recently, the decisions made by two major figures in the table tennis world, Fan Zhendong and Chen Meng, have undoubtedly dropped two重磅bombs on the calm waters, sparking extensive discussions and speculations. Fan Zhendong, the leader of the national table tennis team, has always been the pillar of strength in the hearts of fans. In the first stage of the recent Super League, Fan Zhendong displayed an excellent state, both in attack and defense, showing great ease. This performance filled fans with anticipation for his return to the international arena. However, when the list for the WTT Singapore Grand Slam was announced, Fan Zhendong's name was conspicuously absent, pouring cold water on the fans' expectations. Subsequently, Fan Zhendong posted a shocking message on social media. He announced that due to the new regulations issued by the WTT stipulating fines for missing matches, and being unable to bear such financial pressure personally, he decided to withdraw from the world rankings and WTT competitions. This decision caught fans off guard and sent shockwaves throughout the table tennis world. After all, Fan Zhendong's withdrawal means that the national team has lost an important scoring point in men's singles. Looking back at Fan Zhendong's career, he has consistently maintained a high competitive level, achieving remarkable results in both domestic and international competitions. However, with the introduction of new WTT regulations, Fan Zhendong faces unprecedented challenges. It is understood that if Fan Zhendong chooses to continue participating, he may need to pay high fines. For an athlete, this is undoubtedly a heavy…

At the turn of the year, a storm swept through the domestic table tennis world. Fan Zhendong and Chen Meng stood up to challenge the unfair terms in the WTT competitions, much like heroes who rallied the masses in the historical torrent, stirring up widespread resonance and support from renowned players at home and abroad. They fought side by side, vowing to fight for fairness and justice in the table tennis world, ready to forge ahead even if the path ahead was thorny. In response to the severe inquiries from CCTV and major media outlets, the WTT World Table Tennis Association released a detailed statement attempting to clear up misunderstandings. It claimed that the measure of imposing fines for non-participation was not newly introduced but based on a system meticulously designed by a professional team. It also emphasized that the prize money for 2025 would increase by 20%, suggesting that Fan Zhendong and Chen Meng's protests might stem from misinterpretation. However, Fan Zhendong did not choose to let the matter rest. He held firm to his stance, continuing to wield his pen as a sword to expose the truth behind WTT, candidly stating that he only recently learned of this rule and felt indignant and puzzled about the clause that imposed fines for non-participation. In this war without gunpowder, the confrontation between the WTT World Table Tennis Association and Fan Zhendong subtly involved Liu Guoliang as the mastermind behind the scenes. Although Liu Guoliang remained behind the scenes, he was known to all as the actual leader of the WTT…

A tweet by sports journalist He Xiaolong has caused a stir among fans of the Chinese national table tennis team (Guoping). "I firmly believe that Liu Guoliang has been removed from his position, this is just my personal judgment," he wrote. This short statement has set off a storm within the Guoping fan community. He Xiaolong, known for his sharp writing style, has recently been exposing internal information about Guoping, with undercurrents in his words. He previously mentioned several times how fan culture has eroded Guoping, believing that the silence of the Table Tennis Association is a "leaderless, semi-paralyzed working state," even predicting that "there's an 80% chance of a change in leadership." Now, he directly names Liu Guoliang, undoubtedly pushing this turmoil to its peak. Looking back at the women's singles final at the 2024 Paris Olympics between Chen Meng and Sun Yingsha, it remains a sore point for many fans. On the court, what should have been pure competitive opposition was overshadowed by the excessive behavior of some extreme fans. The boos and middle fingers from Sun Yingsha's fans, the fierce counterattacks from Chen Meng's fans, changed the flavor of this pinnacle match. After the Olympics, public security organs punished multiple online rumor mongers, but the influence of fan culture spread like wildfire, difficult to extinguish. Subsequent Ping Pong Super League events exposed this chaos even more blatantly. Fan Zhendong was slapped in the face by crazy fans, Wang Chuqin's fans insulted Fan Zhendong, Fan Zhendong's fans abused Ma Long, Sun Yingsha was reported... A series of incidents…
