体坛英语资讯：We make everyone sportsmanlike: Alisports CEO

"On the other hand, we have clearly known that we will not gain commercial profit with electronic sports in a while, but that does not matter," added Zhang, "Alisports was only founded two years ago. From the beginning we have established our goal: we do not invest in the past, but for the future. Most fans of electronic sports are between 18 and 25 years old. It is a very young group, it is also the generation in which we are going to invest and to which we are going to serve."

In 2017, Zhang left his position as vice president of Shanghai Media Group, but did not know what he was going to do until he had a talk with Ma Yun, the founder of Alibaba, in which the two found they share the same idea about sports: it is the cross point of health and happiness. A short time later, Alisports was founded with the investment of Alibaba, and Zhang has been CEO since then.

In the past two years, AliSports has gradually found its development strategy. "We have got great support from the Alibaba group, but with these resources, we are not going to buy things. We want creation and innovation. Now we focus on two aspects: Electronic sports and campus sports, which is for young people in schools and universities. Electronic sports is the integration of technology and sports, while campus sports is a necessary step for training professional athletes."

Thanks to the development in technologies, AliSports can dedicate itself to integrate sports with internet and big data. In this way, people can do sports more easily and conveniently: look for a stadium or playground on line, organize a team to play by APP, receive professional training with artificial intelligence, watch games via multimedia, etc.
