On August 26, Xue Sijia, a reporter from Oriental Sports Daily, reported more details regarding the negotiations between Zhou Qi and Guangdong Men’s Basketball.
The relevant part of the report involving Zhou Qi is as follows:
Zhou Qi had engaged in renewal negotiations with Guangdong Men’s Basketball, but there was a certain disagreement over the duration of the renewal. The former hoped to secure a long-term contract, while the latter preferred to reach an agreement with the player for a short-term contract. Ultimately, Guangdong Men’s Basketball reached an agreement with Beijing Shougang, who will obtain the priority right to renew Zhou Qi’s contract through a cash transaction. According to domestic media, it is only a matter of time before Zhou Qi completes his signing with Beijing Shougang, as the team has almost met all the conditions laid out by Zhou Qi’s agent team, also making up for last year’s regret. During the off-season last year, Beijing Shougang had held in-depth negotiations with Xinjiang Men’s Basketball over Zhou Qi’s transfer, but ultimately the deal fell through because the involved players were unwilling to go to Xinjiang. Now, it can be considered a continuation of their previous connection.
