Former international: refused to play match-fixing, bidding hundreds of thousands of dollars in one game

Recently, Wang Song, the top league record holder in China, was interviewed by the media and recalled some of his past experiences. Wang Song, who was born in 1983, is also 38 years old this year.

In 1999, at the age of 16, Wang Song joined the Sichuan Quanxing first team. In 2000, at the age of 17, Wang Song made his debut in the A-League. Wang Song has played for Sichuan Quanxing, Chengdu Xie FeiLian, Hangzhou Greentown, Guangzhou R&F, Jiangsu Suning, Sichuan Jiuniu and other clubs in his career.

Wang Song, who was interviewed, said:

"When I was 1999-2000, I was 17 years old and paid only 900 yuan a month, mainly by bonuses. At that time, the salary was very small, and the high salary was not much higher, and in 2009, the monthly salary of the 27-year-old kicked in the Chinese Super League was 30,000 yuan. For us, it's about trying to play because everyone has the same amount of money. Whether it is Li Bing, Ma Mingyu, Wei Qun, we can get the same bonus as long as we play the same time, so I will be very eager to play the game on my own ability, which is also a motivation. ”

According to Wang Song's introduction, at the beginning, the team did not have a contract, although the salary will not be paid on time, but basically there will be no salary arrears: "Where there is a contract in the zero years, basically tell you verbally, or give you a casual look." You didn't have a free transfer at that time. There is no concept of contract for me anyway. From Wang Song's words, we can see what the so-called "professional" degree of Chinese professional football at that time went.

Subsequently, Wang Song also talked about the situation in football when sweeping away black and anti-gambling: "There are many interferences, and your entire football environment will be disturbed inside and out, so it is important to maintain a original intention." Some people may soon affect their careers because of some of the distractions just mentioned.

In the next few years, in a relatively important game, someone came to me on the phone and said how much money the other side promised to give you, I was very ignorant at that time, only in my early twenties. At that time, hundreds of thousands of years. I also spoke to my father and he said this must not be done, and I said yes, I can't. ”

Wang Song revealed that when he transferred to Guangzhou R&F, he received an annual salary of 3.5 million yuan and a signing fee. Although it did not become the peak, he slowly began to make some money. The madness of Jinyuan football reached its peak in 2017, and Wang Song also tasted the dividends.

"At the beginning they told me it would go up to 4 million, I was 3.5 million at the time, I said it would go up to 5.5 million, and the two sides were talking all the time. By the back, they were willing to double me to 7 million. I only needed 5 million in the middle of the year, but by the end of the year I didn't ask for much. In fact, I am ready to renew my contract, but Suning has given me a higher, almost 9 million. ”

At present, Wang Song continues his career in the Chinese Second Division team Hebei Kung Fu Team, and the Hebei Kung Fu Team has also successfully entered the Chinese League One next season.
