It was previously reported that Zeng Wending might return to Taiwan to play in China, but in the end he decided to stay in the CBA. Zeng Wending said: "Just like I left the Taiwan League and went to the CBA, it was a brand new beginning. I believe I still have a lot of room for improvement. It is my own meaning to sign for only one year. Facing a new city, a new environment, and a new coach, I want to give myself a year to compete. In the past, I signed it once a year."
Talking about the spicy Sichuan cuisine, Zeng Wending admitted that it would be a big challenge: "I went to Sichuan before, and that spicy is really not ordinary spicy, so I hope I can adapt, otherwise I can only find something that is not spicy."
Zeng Wending entered the CBA in 2011, played for the Shanghai Men's Basketball Team, and became an important rotation player of the Sharks. During his time in Shanghai last season, he averaged only 2.7 points and 2.1 rebounds per game, both of which were the lowest in his career and left Shanghai after the end of the season.
