In the principal's office, Xu Jie was slightly surprised.
Unexpectedly, Director Xie and the others were actually promoting the establishment of a local professional basketball club in Zhongnan City.
Even the team's sponsor has been found.
Xu Jie knows Nantian Holdings, one of the star companies in Zhongnan City.
CEO Li Guoqiang first started his career in the catering industry. After decades of hard work, he has successively ventured into energy, automobiles, real estate and other industries.
Needless to say, the connections behind being able to get involved in these industries.
Last year, the entire Nantian Holding Group's turnover exceeded 200 billion, ranking 114th among the top 500 companies in the country.
Li Guoqiang's personal worth exceeds 30 billion, making him one of the top richest people in Zhongnan City.
If he were to be the financial backer behind the club, it would indeed be more than enough.
The establishment of a local professional basketball coach in Zhongnan City is indeed a good thing in Xu Jie's opinion.
But Director Xie asked him to help with this matter?
Xu Jie thought to himself that when the club was first established and participating in the professional league, it would be most appropriate to buy ready-made professional players.
It's impossible to identify good talents from various middle schools to form a team.
After all, there is still a strength gap between the youth army and professional teams.
Not to mention that domestic professional leagues are now filled with all kinds of foreign players.
After thinking about it for a while, Xu Jie roughly knew what Director Xie was thinking.
Director Xie has met Senior Brother Sui, Senior Brother Sun and Director Bian.
He knew that he had some connections in the provincial bureau and the general bureau.
Therefore, he wanted to establish a relationship with himself through the establishment of a professional basketball club.
After thinking about this, Director Xie's arrogance in the past and Gong in the rear all made sense.
Xu Jie had a good impression of Director Xie, who was a little overweight.
Just the fact that he helped intercept someone from the Football Association some time ago made Xu Jie quite fond of him.
So Xu Jie replied with a smile:
"Director Xie, if there are any good ideas, I will recommend them to you first."
Lin Weirui, needless to say.
From the beginning, Xu Jie planned to send him to the NBA.
But Zhou Lu, Yue Zhanye and even the other members of the Zhenzhong school team were inferior in talent and strength to Lin Weirui.
It's definitely unrealistic to send him to the NBA.
Thinking of Zhou Lu, Yue Zhanye and others.
Xu Jie thought of Tang Mingxuan from Hongyuan, Zhou Tianchen from Beimen, and even Yi Li from Zhenzhong last year.
The four major school teams in Zhongnan City can indeed produce many good talents every year.
It would be a pity to send all of them to other parts of the country.
If Zhongnan City could have a local professional team.
Xu Jie thought that it might not be a bad idea to bring them together to create a strong local team in Central and South China.
After hearing Xu Jie's reply, Director Xie's expression remained unchanged, but he felt happy in his heart.
The teacher Xu in front of me is just a physical education teacher in Zhenzhong.
But the connections behind him are something Xie Pengpeng doesn't dare to underestimate.
In Xie Pengpeng's mind, this teacher Xu felt somewhat like a "big hermit hidden in the city".
Just as Xu Jie thought.
Xie Pengpeng actually just wanted to have a relationship with Xu Jie.
He is a civil servant.
According to his original political achievements and connections, reaching the top position of the sports bureau of a prefecture-level city is almost the end of his political career.
But after meeting Xu Jie.
Xie Pengpeng's originally silent heart for promotion was rekindled.
Liu Peng, Zhou Tao, Liu Yunfei, Lin Weirui, Chu Xiaoran...
All the super newcomers who are making their mark in competitive sports are all students of the teacher Xu in front of me!
Their future is limitless.
He has a strong personal background.
There are some incredibly talented students.
How could Xie Pengpeng not have the intention to have a relationship with Xu Jie?
"Teacher Xu, I would like to thank you in advance." Director Xie smiled without any pretense.
His thank you made Ding Lixiang's eyes twitch.
Can a simple promise from the teacher Xu in front of me make Director Xie so happy?
Is this still the Director Xie he knows?
Why does it feel like it's too childish?
Who is this Teacher Xu?
Ding Lixiang felt greatly shocked.
Several people talked about the establishment of a professional basketball club, and Xu Jie suddenly asked:
"By the way, Director Xie, are you planning to jointly form a club with Nantian Holdings?"
Director Xie nodded and replied with a smile:
"Yes."
"There is a precedent in China for the local sports bureau and enterprises to jointly establish a professional basketball club."
"For example, Beijiang Guanghui, which has won the domestic professional league championship, was jointly established by the Beijiang Sports Bureau and Guanghui Group."
"We originally had the idea of forming a local team in Central and South China because we saw their success."
Xu Jie nodded and asked: "As far as I know, the number of domestic professional teams is limited, right?"
"How do you get your team's league quota?"
Upon hearing Xu Jie's question, Director Xie turned to look at Ding Lixiang.
"Old Ding, it's up to you to answer this question."
Ding Lixiang was suddenly stunned. Was it finally his turn to speak?
No matter how stupid he is, he still knows that the teacher Xu in front of him is no ordinary person.
So Ding Lixiang cleared his throat and said with a smile:
"Teacher Xu, you are right."
"In our domestic basketball league, there are only 20 professional teams in total."
"But ever since Chairman Yao came to power, he has been trying to reform."
"The key to this reform includes the expansion of professional leagues."
Expand the army?
When Xu Jie heard Ding Lixiang's words, his thoughts moved slightly.
After all, Dayao is an athlete who has been a top player.
He knows better than the average basketball association president what is needed for the development of professional basketball.
Since he came to power, the domestic league has also attempted reforms.
However, the resistance encountered was considerable.
Just a "salary limit order" has been opposed by many clubs.
The news that the CBA is going to expand its military has been around for a long time.
But after many years, it has never been able to land.
There are too many interest groups involved, and it is not possible to balance all parties and reach a successful conclusion overnight.
Just when Xu Jie was thinking to himself, he heard Ding Lixiang say:
"Starting next year, the CBA will expand from the original 20 teams to 24 teams."
"These four extra places will set off a silent storm of competition."
"Have you decided to expand the army?" Xu Jie raised his eyebrows and asked in surprise.
"Okay." Director Xie nodded with a smile.
"But as Lao Ding said, there are only four more places. I don't know how many places in China are focusing on these four places."
"Who will win in the end depends on their own methods."
"This is also the second purpose of my coming today."
"If our early bidding results are not satisfactory, I hope Teacher Xu can lend a helping hand."
Xu Jie was stunned when he heard Director Xie's words.
Good guy.
Is this the real purpose of Director Xie’s visit today?
He is truly worthy of being an official.
After beating around the bush for a long time, I finally revealed my true intention.
And there is so much foreshadowing added in the front.
But from a personal perspective.
Xu Jie hopes that Zhongnan City will have its own professional basketball club.
He also didn't want those good seedlings from Zhongnan to be lost to the outside world.
