On May 27th, the 2021 China Sports Development Forum was held in Beijing. The China Sports Value List series were released at the forum. Among them, Yi Jianlian and Zhu Ting were elected as the most influential male and female athletes in China in 2020.
Chinese men's basketball leader Yi Jianlian came to the forum on the same day. When accepting the award, he said that this award is a great affirmation and encouragement to himself, "As an athlete, I have been playing on the court and fighting hard, and I hope to get such recognition."
In the 2020 CBA Finals, Yi Jianlian suffered an injury and retired, so he missed the 2021 season competition.
However, according to him that day, after 9 months of recovery, the current state of recovery is quite good.
"I hope I can still appear in the game in the future, because the happiest moment for players is when they step into the court every day."
Among the top ten finalists in the "2020 Chinese Athlete Communication Influence List" are football player Wu Lei, volleyball player Zhang Changning, table tennis player Ma Long, freestyle skier Gu Ailing, swimmer Xu Jiayu, track and field athlete Su Bingtian, and basketball player Guo Ailun and Zhou Qi.
The forum was co-sponsored by China Sports Press and Tencent, with the theme of "Winning the Digital Era".

It covers the popularity rankings of athletes, events, venues and other items from 2019 to 2020.
