During the offseason of the 20 12 season, East Asia, which is at the critical moment of overtaking, suddenly received a "commercial loan" call from the leaders of Shanghai Sports Bureau, asking Bai Jiajun to lend it to Shenhua for free. In the second half of the season, the defense line in East Asia declined, and the results were bumpy and almost fell short. However, East Asia did not get the rental fee, and its half-year salary was also paid by East Asia. Before the start of last season, Bai Jiajun, who returned to East Asia, was the only player with super league experience. His role can be imagined, but he finally left before the transfer window closed. At that time, Xu Genbao had to bite the bullet and explain: "Bai Jiajun's soul is gone!"
Behind this series of strange things is the "coordination" role of Shanghai Sports Bureau. A few years ago, Xu Genbao took the initiative to integrate Shanghai football resources and set up a new aircraft carrier team. According to reports, at that time, the competent authorities suggested that Zhu Jun buy the East Asia First Team as a whole at a price of only 20 million yuan, but Shenhua investors thought the price was too high. At the critical moment when East Asia overtook China in the 20 12 season, Zhu Jun went to Chongming to "taste wonton" in person. When Genbao asked Lei Wu and Bai Jiajun, he was refused, but Genbao received a phone call from the leader of the Sports Bureau that night. Considering the overall situation of Shanghai football, Shenhua was difficult to avoid relegation at that time, and the leaders stood up. East Asia reluctantly agreed to release a Bai Jiajun.
