In this passionate and competitive world of football, every game is a challenge, a battle of honor. However, just as we were cheering for the sport, a much-watched documentary broadcast by CCTV1 on January 9 uncovered the scandal of the inside story of Chinese football, which attracted widespread attention and deep reflection.
Intriguing opening
In this eye-catching documentary, former national football coach Li Tie stepped forward and bravely revealed the dark side behind Chinese football. In episode 4, we heard about Li Tie's personal experience and his deep understanding of football. However, this is not a simple confession, but a spiritual story of a country's football.
Li Tie's mental journey
As a player, Li Tie once hated people who played match-fixing. He pursues authentic and fair play on the field of play and is deeply dissatisfied with those who play match-fixing. However, when he became a coach, he had to ignore this principle in order to prove his ability. This shift in mindset is thought-provoking and reflects the realities and pressures and trials of the football world.
The astonishing truth of buying opponents at sky-high prices
In order to surpass the last battle, Li Tie and the Huaxia Happiness team chose to buy the opponent at a sky-high price. Meng Jing revealed that in order to ensure victory in the game, they spent a staggering 14 million to buy their opponent's release water. However, fate made people, and the 6 million spent by Li Tie and others was swallowed by the opponent Li Fei himself. Such an unbelievable inside story is jaw-dropping.
The revelation of the shady inside football
The documentary also reveals the dark side of Chinese football, including the bizarre phenomenon of black eating black. Among them, 20 million were used to play match-fixing, 6 million were devoured by insiders, and the remaining 14 million were used to buy Chongchao. This kind of insider trading gives a glimpse of the unspeakable side of football.
A huge bribe for the position of coach of the national football team
In order to become the coach of the national football team, a huge amount of bribes were involved. In order to make Li Tie the coach of the national football team, Wuhan Zall Club did not hesitate to pay 2 million to the programmer of the chairman of the Football Association. And Li Tie paid 1 million out of his own pocket to Liu Yi, secretary general of the Football Association, and the huge bribery transaction totaling 3 million was a big surprise.
The football shady behind the deal
Li Tie's transaction with Wuhan Zall Club is a completely unveiled shady veil. Despite signing a contract of 60 million, the four players sent by the Wuhan team to the national team were considered not to be up to the national team's level. Behind such a deal, there is a shocking sense of the truth about how football works.
Chen Xuyuan's bribery revealed
The documentary also revealed the details of the bribery of former Football Association Chairman Chen Xuyuan. The day before he became the chairman of the Chinese Football Association, he received a bribe of 600,000 yuan from the heads of two local football associations. Such corrupt practices make people lament that there are many shady scenes in the football world.
The exposure of corruption and money transactions within football
At the end of the documentary, after Li Tie became the coach of the national football team, the inside story of starting to make money was also exposed. The corruption and money transactions within football are shocking and make people feel the dilemma facing Chinese football.
Revelation and reflection
The exposure of this documentary has triggered a deep reflection on Chinese football. Football is not only a competitive sport, but also a culture, a spiritual symbol of a country. We cannot afford to sit idly by in the face of internal match-fixing, bribery and money dealings. Football needs to be truthful, impartial, and it needs the soul of sport.
In the midst of the serious problems facing Chinese football, we should think about how to fundamentally reform and rebuild this system. Only then will we be able to go further in football and make the sport a source of national pride rather than a product of greed and corruption. Li Tie's brave revelations have sounded the alarm for us, and we have the responsibility to work together to give new vitality to Chinese football.
