Let the hand of time move forward gently -
On May 13, 2009, Liu Xiaowu, Mao Weimin and Wang Jun jointly established the Pearl Super League Company;
On June 8, 2009, Qiansehua won the title of Pearl Super League News The press conference was held at Guangzhou Garden Hotel. At that time, the hands of Huang Dachang, chairman of Qiansehua, and Liu Xiaowu, then general manager of the Zhuchao Super League and now president of the Guangdong Futsal Association, were already holding hands.
On March 31, 2010, the first Qianse Huazhu Super League concluded.
However, just as the second Pearl Super League was about to start the following year, the three shareholders of the Pearl Super League, Liu Xiaowu, Mao Weimin and Wang Jun, broke up due to differences in business philosophy, and the new season of the Pearl Super League was postponed. Liu Xiaowu started anew, established the Cantonese Super League Company, and launched a new Cantonese Super League.
After that, Zhuchao sued Liu Xiaowu for engaging in horizontal competition and harming the interests of Zhuchao. Liu Xiaowu petitioned the Provincial Football Association for a monopoly, arguing that they could not authorize the Pearl Super League to exclusively operate futsal matches in Guangdong Province. These two cases took a long time, starting from the Baiyun District Court, then to the Guangzhou Intermediate People's Court, then to the Provincial High Court, and finally to the Supreme People's Court. Finally, in October 2014, the State Council Document No. 46, "Several Opinions on Accelerating the Development of the Sports Industry and Promoting Sports Consumption," was officially released. This document finally solved the issue of approval for the Guangdong Super League to hold games.
In Liu Xiaowu's view, the two cases that year "in the end were no longer a dispute between the Pearl Super League and the Guangdong Super League, but a big issue of right and wrong as to whether the competition can be held in society in China."
Over the past ten years, the Guangdong Super League carefully managed by Liu Xiaowu has formed a matrix of competition brands such as the Guangdong Super League, the Guangdong First Division, the Guangdong Second Division League, the Guangdong Women's Fifth Division, the Community League and other competition brands. Sehua operates the event, and in recent years it has switched to an invitational tournament mode, which is actually run by Huang Dachang.
"Guangdong Super League and Zhu Super League are originally one family." Although this sounds a bit awkward, it is not unreasonable. To this day, Liu Xiaowu is still one of the shareholders of the Pearl Super League, and teams from the Guangdong Super League are often invited to participate in the Pearl Super League.
Huang Dachang has always recognized that football can bring good publicity effects to enterprises, which is why he has stayed in Guangdong futsal for more than ten years. As for Qiansehua's title of Guangdong Super League this time, he believes that it is a gathering of Guangdong forces that can form a synergy to promote the development of Guangdong futsal.
"The competition between the Zhuhai Super League and the Guangdong Super League has become a fond memory for us. Without the competition between us, the futsal market in Guangdong would not be so big. Chairman Huang Dachang and I have been working on our common hobby for ten years. Do one thing - that is five-a-side football competition, so there is no reason for us not to cooperate, there is no reason not to unite," Liu Xiaowu said. What can be easily sensed is that Liu Xiaowu is also very excited about being crowned the Guangdong Super League.
The title of Qiansehua will also bring new vitality to the Guangdong Super League in the new season. It is understood that the event will kick off on May 9 at the Zhaoqing New District Sports Center Gymnasium, and the first Zhuhai Super League will open in Zhaoqing. This seems to be a destiny. It is worth mentioning that the event venue, Zhaoqing New District Sports Center Gymnasium, was newly built for the 15th Provincial Games and has excellent hardware conditions.
The eight teams participating in the Qiansehua Cantonese Super League in the new season are: Shenzhen Bibo Madman Sogre City, Zhaoqing Luxun, Macau Chiba, Enqi·Chaoshanren, Qingxiang·Yamei, Foshan Viking Taisho Metal, Guangzhou Hui Alliance·Evergreen Technology and Zhuhai Zhixuan Ruidong. The championship will be finally decided on August 1, and the winning team will win the Guangdong Super Mobile Championship Cup - the five-legged purple sand championship tripod.
