Zhu Guanghu
Rao Weihui started his football career in 2008 with Chinese Super League club Shaanxi Chanba after he graduated from the club's youth team. He made his debut for the club on 9 April 2008 in a 0-0 away draw with Shenzhen Shangqingyin and was described by then manager Cheng Yaodong as an exciting prospect for the future. Despite the strong support from the manager, the club would struggle during the 2009 season with ultimately led to Cheng leaving the club, which left Rao with very little playing time throughout the season. However, in the following season, new manager Zhu Guanghu decided to move Rao from a midfield position into the defense where he quickly established himself as the team's starting fullback. Before the 2012 season, Rao stayed with Shaanxi as the club decided to move to Guizhou and rename themselves Guizhou Renhe.
