Evergrande Guangzhou football stadium fears unfinished

In 2012, Evergrande boss Xu Jiayin said frankly at the press conference for the double crown celebration of the Guangzhou Football Super League and the Football Association Cup, "I hope there is a professional football stadium in Guangzhou." In August 2016, Guangzhou officially announced the planning and construction of a professional football stadium near Guangzhou South Railway Station. On April 16, 2020, Evergrande Group won the bid for sports facilities and industrial plots in Xie Village, Panyu District, Guangzhou City. The contract value of the project is about 4.3 billion yuan. It is 2.6 kilometers away from Guangzhou South Railway Station. It covers an area of about 150,000 square meters and has a total construction area of 493,800 square meters.

According to the project plan, the total investment is over 20 billion, built in accordance with the world's highest standards, designed to accommodate 100,000 spectators, surpassing the 98,000 people in the Nou Camp football stadium of Spain's Barcelona team. It will be China's first modern super-large professional football The field will also become the world’s largest top professional football field. It is planned to be completed and put into use before the end of 2022.

On July 3, 2020, the architectural design of Guangzhou Evergrande Football Stadium was released. Judging from the announced plan, the Evergrande New Stadium has 7 floors above the ground, and each layer of the canopy is composed of 12 petals superimposed. It is understood that Evergrande invited 8 top masters from the United States, Germany, the United Kingdom, Australia and other countries to organize several rounds of program design comparisons, and finally chose the program of the top American master Hasan.A.Syed.

It is a pity that the project has not been long since the announcement of the plan to the start of construction. Evergrande faced a debt crisis, and the Evergrande football field was also taken back and ready to be auctioned again. According to the news, in the future, it will negotiate the ownership of the land with the group that took over the Guangzhou Club. If no one takes over, the Urban Investment Group will take over and take the right to use the land.

However, it will take a long time for Chengtou to sort out the accounts if it takes over. At present, Evergrande estimates that the stadium will need to invest 6 billion yuan to complete, and the city investment estimates that it is 8-9 billion yuan to complete, and the two sides have calculated a difference of 2 billion yuan. Regarding the issue of project accounts, there is also a lot of discussion on the Internet. Whether the difference in the account price of 2 billion yuan is the transaction fee or the construction fee of the Evergrande Stadium, there is currently no official statement on the hammer, and it is unknown when the transaction will be completed.

So how is the current progress of the project?

Professional football stadiums are relatively limited in hosting comprehensive sports events. From now on, even if there is a city cast, it is possible that the stadium will be unfinished. The once grand blueprint has to face reality under heavy pressure.

If the original design plan was not so large, it would be less difficult to complete the project after taking over. Today's rapid changes make people embarrassed.
