David Robinson has always been the vice chairman of the Players Union and Gan Guoyang's intended successor. If he can't continue, he intends to pass the chairman position to Robinson.
With a military background, a pure good nature, and an impressive resume, Robinson has made contributions in labor disputes, shed blood for the union, and is the perfect choice for a successor.
During the labor negotiations in the summer of 1998, other superstars stood against Gan Guoyang, while David Robinson firmly stood by the chairman's side, not joining forces with other superstars, giving Gan Guoyang strong support.
"David, you played a great series. I must admit, I've declined to Michael's level," Gan Guoyang said to Robinson.
Gan Guoyang's tone contained a trace of helplessness. The most worrisome thing had come; under the ravages of time, he had become Michael Jordan.
"Which Michael?"
"1992."
Robinson was evidently the more helpless one.
