This Chinese is now cleaning up at GC

Those who come to Zurich from China to inspect GC internally, of course also watch a competition. The game plan wants Bill Pan to play the atmospheric derby against the FCZ captured and not one of the gloomy GC evenings in the Letzigrund.

Bill Pan? Like many compatriots with contact points abroad, the Chinese have given themselves an English first name. Pan is in the corporate form of GC owner fozone a bull’s eye and was sent to Switzerland after the resignation of President Sky Sun club to research.

Pan watches the derby in a box with GC Vice President Andras Gurovits who is interim president after Sun’s departure. “The first half has him naturally like better,” he says Gurovits about the match visit with the Fosun emissary.

Bill Pan analyzes the inner workings of GC

Pan stays with GC for three weeks. He must discuss the state in which Sun den club links and what profile Sun’s successor should have. In other words, the Chinese are cleaning up at GC. Gurovits: “Bill talks to everyone to get his own picture.”

It is therefore crucial for the future of GC which report Pan sends to China. And what recommendations he makes. Pan would be a billionaire and Fosun boss Good guangchang close to. Guangchangs Miss Jenny Wang does Yes officially with the Fosun Center Company Champion Union HK Holdings Limited the owner.

For Gurovits it is clear where GC should steer. “We need to be more realistic when it comes to setting goals and we need more Swissnessmore Zurich and more GC,” says the lawyer, who does not wear a suit in the stadium and on TV appearances and wears a GC cap to appear close to the people.

Swissness is in fact decision-making power

But even if Gurovits by Swissness speaks. In reality, it is not about Swiss passports, but about decision-making power. Will the GC still be decided in China and Wolverhampton under Sun’s successor, or should the club become more autonomous?

Gurovits hopes that after the failed Sun remote and the loss of millions, there will be a rethink towards more GC independence: “I think Pan’s ears are open. More autonomy is realistic – but of course keep that in mind club remains in Chinese possession.”

However, it remains an option that Bill Pan secretly prepares the sale of GC to a new investor. And the Zurich faction nearby Gurovits and co. are presented with a fait accompli.
