Retired Chinese soccer player Hao Haidong has angered the country's leadership by allying himself with an eccentric billionaire who has called for the downfall of the Communist government. Hao appeared Thursday in two online videos, one with his wife and former badminton world number one Ye Zhaoyin, swearing allegiance to the "Federal State of New China," a purported alternative to the ruling Communist Party of China established by exiled dissident Chinese Guo Wengui.
