Yu Jiahao joined La Liga and officially became the first person in China to travel to Europe

When seeing the news that Yu Jiahao joined Europe and became the first Chinese player to travel to Europe, will Guo Ailun feel a little envy at this time?

13 years ago, he was infinitely close to a European team, just one step away from the title of China's first person in Europe.

The team was in a financial crisis at that time. They turned their attention to the Chinese market and tried to ease the difficulties by signing the next Chinese player to leverage cooperation in sponsorship, communication and other aspects.

At that time, I had contact with many players, such as Yi Jianlian, Sun Yue, Han Dejun and Guo Ailun all received invitations from this club, and among them, Guo Ailun was infinitely close to signing.

However, an opportunity was not ripe, which eventually became empty talk. Even if the other party made great concessions, Guo Ailun finally had no way to leave.

Now, let's think about it in hindsight. If Guo Ailun could go there at that time, would his upper limit be higher? Will he become the true number one point guard in Asia?

However, there are not so many ifs in this world. For Guo Ailun, this may be the biggest regret of his entire career!

The pioneer of Chinese players' NBA is Wang Zhizhi, and the pioneer of traveling to Europe is probably Guo Ailun!

The unready path of pioneers will eventually become a beacon for latecomers. When Guo Ailun looked at Yu Jiahao, what he saw might not only be envy, but also his courage that had not ignited but illuminated others.

There is no way to explain many things in the past in detail. I just hope that Yu Jiahao will continue to work hard in the future. At the same time, I also hope that more young players will have the courage to break out of their comfort zone and be brave enough to challenge themselves!
