Special correspondent Zuo Rui Pingguo reports On the morning of March 11, the "Double League Expedition, Brave Glory - Guangxi Pingguo Football Club and Guangxi Pingguo Beinong Football Club 2025 Season Departure Ceremony" was held at Pinglu International Hotel. This is the first time that the two local teams in the Chinese League and the Women's League have made a public appearance at the same time before the new season, and it is also the fourth time that the "Double League City" of Guangxi Zhuang Autonomous Region has attacked the First Division League and hit a higher goal. The ambition at the event site and the feat of Guojing Liquor Industry re-naming ignited the pride of the hometown in the hearts of fans, "Fight!" Guangxi team! The shouts are touching and enduring.
Behind the renaming of "Guangxi Pingguo Hayi" to "Guangxi Pingguo" is a completely reorganized management team by the club's new shareholders, and it is a brand new team with more than 30 recruits. What will the Guangxi soldiers, who have failed to surpass three times before, do under the leadership of head coach Zhou Lin? This issue is not only worrying for Bagui fans, but also concerned by the outside world because it is related to the competitive landscape of the Chinese League.
At the departure ceremony, the club's general manager Qi Jing declared that the team has completed a "comprehensive transformation from technical tactics to mental toughness". He expects the team to show a good spirit and competitive state in the new season, and looks forward to "building the red wave of the devil's home stadium with the fans, so that every match day will become a grand festival of Pingguo." ”
According to reports, this Chinese league club, which is shown with a new name, a new LOGO, a new image and a new team, has been rebuilt with the standard of "specialization, youthfulness and localization" from the coaching staff, players to the logistics support team. Among the large-scale reinforcements and a large number of blood exchanges, in addition to the three new foreign players from Belgium, Brazil and Togo, 8 Guangxi players are particularly eye-catching. "Since we have the opportunity to contribute to Guangxi football, we want to take a long-term view and develop steadily, instead of just focusing on the immediate situation and not playing." Qi Jing said that the club has a heavy burden this year, defending the gold medal ball market, treating all fans well, laying out local youth training, and promoting the local economy...... Nothing is easy.
Luckily, the city-named team that is regrouping is not alone in Pingguo. In addition to the Pingguo Anonymous Fan Club, Guangxi Haran Fan Club, and Guangxi Wolf Soldier Fan League to cheer, the Pingguo Municipal Party Committee and the Municipal Government gave strong support in the construction of training bases and event guarantees, and Guangxi Guojing Liquor Co., Ltd., Guangxi Yiya Medical Management Group, Guangxi Pingguo Rural Cooperative Bank, Guangxi Beibu Gulf Bank Baise Branch and other hometown enterprises also did their best. "Thanks to the title support of Guangxi Guojing Liquor, the name of the team is not only written on the word 'Guojing', but also the enthusiasm of Bagui for football." Qi Jing said.
Guangxi's only Chinese league team is undergoing rebirth and drastic changes, and the only thing that remains unchanged is the team title. In the 2025 season, Guojing Liquor will continue to invest tens of millions of yuan to deeply participate in the new journey of the "Guangxi Pingguo Guojing Team". This naming makes Guojing Liquor the only team title sponsor in the new season of the Chinese League, and also the first company to name the top two professional league teams in China this season.
Chen Yaolin, President of Guangxi Tianchang Investment and Chairman of Guojing Liquor, said that Guojing people have used ten years of perseverance to create a unique Guojing tea liquor brewed with original tea. "This persistent pursuit of quality coincides with the spirit of Guangxi Pingguo Football Club's 'dare to fight, never give up' - whether it is the hard work on the green field or the ingenuity of winemaking, we need to adhere to the original intention and the pursuit of the ultimate." It is understood that after several years of research and development, thousands of experiments to improve the Guojing tea liquor, from last year officially on sale, is currently attacking the Yangtze River Delta, Pearl River Delta, Beijing-Tianjin-Hebei liquor market, they and the tenacious and unyielding Pingguo football, based in Guangxi, with the world.
At present, Tianchang Investment's "3+2" ecological industry layout has taken shape, with the three major sectors of wine, fishery and health as the first, plus port freight, sports and cultural tourism. As the flagship product of the Group, Guojing Tea will take the opportunity of naming Guangxi Pingguo Guojing Football Team to further stimulate the cultural and tourism consumption potential of Pingguo City, deeply integrate the passion of green and Zhuangxiang culture, and convey the charm of Pingguo and the voice of Guangxi to the whole country.
At the departure ceremony, Chen Yaolin hoped that Guojing Liquor would support Guangxi football and participate in Chinese football with "modest strength", which could arouse more people of insight and a wider range of social forces to walk with football: "At present, at a time when Chinese football is revitalizing and developing and Guangxi football is growing unprecedentedly, I call on people from all walks of life to care more about and love football." ”
Witnessing and participating in the scene of the men's and women's football team's "double armor march" made Chen Yaolin extremely excited and happy. He is full of expectations for the performance of the Guangxi Pingguo Guojing team of the Chinese League and the Guangxi Pingguo Beinong team of the Women's League in the new season: "You are fighting for victory on the field, and we are toasting to glory off the field!" ”
When Su Gang, the leader of Pingguo Beinong, and Zhao Yan, the head coach, led the team on stage, the fans responded with the same cordial and warm applause. The women's team also broke through to the first division in the 2022 season, with the same record as the men's team in the previous two years, finishing 11th and 4th respectively, but last season they broke history and won the third place in the Women's League. Like the predecessor of the Pingguo Guojing team, "Ha Yi", "Bei Nong" is also a transliteration of the Zhuang language, which means "brothers, sisters, friends". Su Gang said that the Benong women's football team, which aims to surpass, is ready for the new season, in addition to the Thai national team striker joining, the three newly signed Guangxi youngsters have also "effectively strengthened the competitiveness of the team".
Since the epidemic in the Women's League, the system has been changed from a home-and-away system to a match system, and the Pingguo Beinon Women's Football Team has rarely had the opportunity to play at home in the past three years. The good news is that the Chinese Football Association has decided to partially resume the home-and-away format for the new season. Su Gang said happily: "There will be two home games in the women's league this year, and the time should be one in August and one in October. ”
At that time, Pingguo Beinon will share a home stadium with Pingguo Guojing - Pingguo Guojing Stadium. In the previous women's football invitational match, Bannon once received cheers from tens of thousands of fans here, and received greetings from the fans of the South Stand "South Friend, Love Beinong". On the day of the ceremony, the stadium will be upgraded, and the completed West Stand will have a roof, 8 VIP boxes, and the stadium capacity will be expanded to 30,000 seats. On March 15, the first round of the new season of the Chinese League will face Liaoning Iron Man, and Guangxi fans will usher in a new festival at home.
