Treasure Island Taiwan has been a part of Chinese civilization since ancient times, and future unification is also the general trend. As the exchanges between the two sides of the Taiwan Strait continue to deepen, more and more Chinese Taipei basketball and football players have joined our big family.
Now, let’s take a look at the Chinese Taipei players in Chinese Super League and the Chinese League One.
Zhou Dingyang : 28 years old, played for Longmen, Songshan, Henan, Rongcheng, Chengdu,
Zhou Dingyang, should be the biggest player in Chinese Taipei players playing in the Chinese Super League. He is a mixed-race Chinese-English (grandfather from Shanghai), has played for the famous Weigan Athletics, and has won the English-A league championship. In 2019, Zhou Dingyang became a naturalized player, representing the Chinese Taipei team for the first time, against Turkmenistan ( Asian Cup qualifiers).
In the 2019 season, Zhou Dingyang joined Henan Jianye (now the Longmen of Songshan, Henan), and soon won the main position and once became one of the team captains; in the 2022 season, Zhou Dingyang transferred to Chengdu Rongcheng, the new Chinese Super League, and became the core of the team.
Yin Yaji : 33 years old, played for Changchun Yatai , Qingdao team, Wuhan three towns
Yin Yaji, is an "old man" who has a low sense of existence but has played in the Chinese League for many years. Like Zhou Dingyang, Yin Yaji is also a mixed-race player, but it is not Britain, but Spain. Before coming to China, Yin Yaji played in the amateur league, playing for four teams in Western China and Siding for many years, and played for the Taipei team in China in 2015.
In the 2016 season, Yin Yaji joined Changchun Yatai, and joined Qingdao again two seasons later (disbanded); in the 2021 season, Yin Yaji transferred to Wuhan Three Towns, making great contributions to the team's promotion to the Super League, and his current position is a substitute rotation player.
Chen Bailiang : 34 years old, played for Shenzhen team, Shanghai Shenhua , Zhejiang team, Changchun Yatai, Qingdao Qingchundao
When it comes to Chinese Taipei players, then Chen Bailiang must be mentioned, because he is the most representative. Chen Bailiang is not only the first group of Chinese Taipei players to play in the Chinese League, but also was the captain of the Chinese Taipei team. Unlike Zhou Dingyang and Yin Yaji, Chen Bailiang is a native Chinese Taipei player. He was selected into the Chinese Taipei team in 2006.
Chen Bailiang began to enter the Mainland Chinese League in the 2012 season (he had played in the Hong Kong Super League before), joined the Shenzhen team, which was still in the China League One at the time. Two years later, he went to Shanghai Shenhua in the Chinese Super League, and only played for one season before transferring to Zhejiang Greentown.
What really made Chen Bailiang find his position is Zhejiang Greentown (now Zhejiang team). He played for this team for 5 years, contributed 12 goals and 15 assists, and once wore the captain's armband, which was deeply loved by fans. After
, Chen Bailiang moved to Changchun Yatai, without leaving much impression. He only played for one season and left the team freely. Chen Bailiang played for Qingdao Qingchundao, which is the core player of the team this season. He has played 13 times so far, scoring 3 goals and 1 assist, thus ushering in the second spring of his career.
Since the 2012 season, Chen Bailiang has played in the Chinese Super League and the Chinese League One for 11 years, and he is expected to play for a few more years in the future. The most fundamental reason why Chen Bailiang was able to play in the Mainland China League for so long is that Taiwan does not have its own professional league, but only a semi-professional and semi-amateur "corporate league". As the motherland continues to strengthen its strength, it is expected that more Chinese Taipei players will be listed in the Chinese Super League and the Chinese League One in the future. Let us wait and see and !
