Chapter 41 Press Conference
Lang Siping set out on the road to the capital early that morning, because today was the CPPA press conference he had been waiting for.
In the conference hall on the 18th floor of the Zhenghe Building, the staff were busy working nervously. Although there was still more than half an hour before the press conference started, the bosses of each team had already arrived and were chatting. Several bosses saw Lang Siping coming.
I came over to say hello enthusiastically, and then started chatting casually. These team owners are all traditional businessmen, not from the table tennis circle. Some of the owners who like table tennis are just amateurs, unlike Lang.
Siping is so special, purely professional players, so they came to get close to Lang Siping because they wanted to share the resources Lang Siping had. For example, they were short of coaches and didn't know who to look for. They couldn't contact or find famous ones.
Come, so I want to ask Lang Siping for help. Of course Lang Siping is willing to share. This is a good thing. It can promote the development of the entire table tennis world and give retired masters a better place to go. Why not?
Unknowingly, when the meeting was about to begin, the bosses sat in the middle and back rows according to the guidance of the staff, and the front row was given to reporters. Since Lang Siping was the founder of the CPPA, he sat on the rostrum next to Chairman Liang. Originally, the CPPA
Chairman Liang wanted Lang Siping to take the chairmanship, but Lang Siping firmly disagreed, so Chairman Liang concurrently served as CPPA chairman, and Lang Siping concurrently served as CPPA vice chairman.
Everyone is in place and the press conference officially begins.
First, Chairman Liang delivered a speech:
"Dear news media spokespersons and founders of the team, good morning! Now I announce that the my country Table Tennis Professional League CPPA will be officially established from now on!"
"Wow! Wow! Wow!" The audience burst into applause.
"Let me read out the basic content..."
Next, Lang Siping also spoke and then entered the media question session.
"Hello, Chairman Liang! May I ask if international friends can participate in CPPA competitions? In what form?"
"This is a very good question! Of course international friends can participate, and their opportunities will be very good!
First, we will specially establish 6 international teams. All the standards, treatment and indicators of the international teams will be the same as those of our other teams. The word "international" will be added to the name.
Second, international friends can directly join our other teams and become members of each of our teams. In short, our attitude towards international friends is: warmly welcome!"
"Hello, Chairman Liang! I am a reporter from Xingxing Entertainment. I would like to ask if there are any restrictions on CPPA contestants. Can retired national players participate? Can private masters participate?"
"Of course you can! As long as you are a law-abiding citizen and under the age of 40, you can sign up to participate. As long as you pass the team selection, you can go with the team!"
"Mr. Nalang, will you participate?"
"It's being kept secret for the time being!" Lang Siping replied with a smile. He didn't expect that the reporter would ask such a question out of the blue. He didn't know how to answer it so suddenly, so let's leave it in suspense!
"Hello, Chairman Liang! As a team member, boss, or coach, are you also eligible to participate?"
"As long as it complies with the regulations and is fair, it's okay!"
"Then do you think it would be unfair for newcomers to compete with coaches and newcomers who have won major championships?"
"There is no absolute fairness in the rules of the game! What is fairness? People with ability will not feel unfair, and feeling unfair will not be an excuse for people with insufficient ability. Furthermore, don't underestimate anyone, especially newcomers.
, how do we know that people who have won major championships and senior coaches will definitely win? Not necessarily! In short, it does not violate the rules of the game, everything depends on personal ability, this kind of competition is healthy!"
"Hello, Chairman Liang!..."
The reporters were very active and asked various questions. Occasionally, a reporter with a funny brain would raise a more difficult topic, but Chairman Liang responded domineeringly!
The other reporters were very knowledgeable and asked some questions that everyone was concerned about that could promote the development of this sport. Chairman Liang patiently answered them one by one.
The reporter's question session ended, and there was a 20-minute break. During the break, a team's red list announcement was posted, which showed information about the team and the city where it is located. Lang Siping also looked at the team's announcement with interest.
