In recent years, Nenking has been dynamic in sports investment. In April, 2020, it officially acquired the time-honored FC Sochaux-Montbéliard. Thus, before the visit kicks off, Nenking plays a video clip featured this football club for the delegation as an appetizer. Afterwards, the delegation starts the tour around the venue and visits Nenking Esports Center.
