The club's chairman, Jaroslav Tvrdik, expressed his gratitude to the CEFC at the victory party held for the championship of the league, saying "it saved Slavia".

"CEFC is both the host and partner of Slavia. We very much cherish our relationship," he said.

Besides the championship in the Liga, Slavia also won several other awards.
Slavia, with the highest attendance among all Czech clubs, attracts more and more people to see their games, including the Czech president, prime minister, chairman of the parliament, cabinet members and other officials, as well as people from all walks of life.

By investing in the Slavia Prague club, the CEFC has greatly promoted football experience exchanges between the two countries. The cooperation projects between China and the Czech Republic include football training, summer camps and tournaments.

Among them, the Slavia International Cup is one of the most successful events, and has been held twice with the participation of excellent teams from Europe and China. The first match was held in March last year when President Xi Jinping visited the Czech Republic.
