As one of the founders of China's "Golden Generation" of women's volleyball, Chen Zhonghe has earned his place in the story of Chinese women's volleyball. Not only is he a coach, but he has also witnessed this chapter in history. However, his journey has been filled with challenges both in his career and family life. Fortunately, those days are behind him now. He has achieved great success and retired with his wife by his side. Occasionally, fans still reminisce about him and the era he represented. Young Chen Zhonghe started as an assistant trainer for the women's volleyball team. Eager to make a mark in the field of volleyball, he seized the opportunity without hesitation and applied to join the national team. This was a relatively low-key role, but Chen Zhonghe did not let that discourage him. Instead, he absorbed experience like a sponge from every training session. Despite his small stature and lack of strength, he knew he could not rely solely on talent and had to compensate through more rigorous training. He took his training seriously, meticulously studying volleyball techniques and tactics. Among the tall and powerful figures of the female volleyball players, Chen Zhonghe's presence seemed insignificant, like an inconspicuous little character. However, his indomitable spirit won him respect and trust among the team members, gradually elevating his status within the team. His career was not without its ups and downs. Starting late, many doubted his transition from assistant trainer to formal coach, questioning whether he had the capability to take on such a heavy responsibility. In…

Since last year, the anti-corruption tide in the domestic sports world has been surging, wave after wave, with its momentum and scope drawing attention. Among various sports projects, many leaders responsible for preparing for the Olympics have been involved, undergoing investigations one after another. Among them, football has been the most affected project. Within the football field, more than a dozen leaders of the Football Association have been involved, and now they have basically been sentenced, receiving severe legal sanctions. Among these events, the most notable figure is Li Tie. This person, who once received much attention as the head coach of the national football team, was sentenced to 20 years in prison. However, Li Tie is not willing to accept this judgment and has chosen to appeal, trying to win the opportunity to reduce his sentence. Just one month after Li Tie's sentencing, the storm of anti-corruption in the domestic sports world began to affect the volleyball project, a situation that is truly sigh-inducing. According to detailed reports from authoritative official media such as CCTV News and People's Daily, Li Quanqiang, the former leader of the Chinese women's volleyball team and former director of the Volleyball Management Center of the General Administration of Sports, has been taken away for investigation. Li Quanqiang is considered the highest-ranking figure investigated in this round of anti-corruption within the domestic volleyball circle. It is worth mentioning that Li Quanqiang's predecessor, Pan Zhichen, was sentenced to four years in prison for bribery. Now that Li Quanqiang has also been taken away for investigation, this…

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…

In recent times, the biggest news in the domestic sports world is undoubtedly the sentencing of Li Tie and the arrest of former Director of China's General Administration of Sport, Gu Zhongwen. This article will not discuss Li Tie, but focus on information related to Gu Zhongwen. To many people, the director of the General Administration of Sport seems distant. However, the greater the power, the more significant the impact if the decisions made are wrong. Take fans as an example! Whether it's football or table tennis fans, they should be extremely resentful towards Gu Zhongwen. As the director of the General Administration of Sport, Gu Zhongwen supported the appointment of Liu Yi, a wanted criminal from South Africa, as the secretary-general of the Chinese Football Association, plunging Chinese football into turmoil. He also supported Chen Xuyuan as the chairman of the Chinese Football Association, further exacerbating the chaos in Chinese football. As for table tennis fans, their hatred towards Gu Zhongwen is even stronger! After Gu Zhongwen took office as the director of the General Administration of Sport, he forced Liu Guoliang, then the head coach of the Chinese table tennis team, to step down. Later, due to the withdrawal from competition by Olympic champions Ma Long, Fan Zhendong, and others in support, Liu Guoliang was reassigned to serve as the president of the Table Tennis Association until now. It is strange that just five days after Gu Zhongwen's arrest, rumors emerged that Liu Guoliang had also been removed from his position. The news of Liu Guoliang's removal was…

Recently, the anti-corruption campaign in China's sports world has been like a hurricane sweeping away once-prominent sports officials from their pedestals. From the life imprisonment of Chen Xuyuan, the former chairman of the Football Association, to the 14-year imprisonment of Du Zhaocai, the former deputy director of the General Administration of Sport, and the 20-year sentence for Li Tie, the former head coach of the men's football team, the scale and depth of this anti-corruption struggle are unprecedented. Among the series of fallen officials, the most notable is Gou Zhongwen, the former director of the General Administration of Sport. Gou Zhongwen, who once held an important position in China's sports world, was arrested after being investigated for serious violations of discipline and law. His downfall not only marks a significant achievement in the anti-corruption struggle within China's sports sector but also triggers deep reflection on the future development of Chinese sports. During Gou Zhongwen's tenure as director of the General Administration of Sport, the Chinese sports delegation achieved remarkable results at both the Tokyo Olympics and the Beijing Winter Olympics. However, behind these glories lay hidden undercurrents. Gou Zhongwen's various crimes ultimately did not escape legal sanctions, and his downfall became an important milestone in the anti-corruption struggle within China's sports world. Before Gou Zhongwen, Cai Zhenhua, a table tennis player by origin, was considered a hot candidate for the directorship of the General Administration of Sport. With his profound background in table tennis and his passion for the sports cause, Cai Zhenhua made tremendous contributions to the development of…
