Gao Feng was once known as the "first striker in Chinese football" and is also considered the best striker to date. He is as fast as the wind on the court, has a strong ability to break through, and is the most distinctive striker in the history of the Chinese national team, nicknamed "Fast Knife Prodigal Son". He has played for Beijing Guoan, Shenyang Haishi and Tianjin Teda in his career, winning the FA Cup, the runner-up of the National Games, the runner-up of the A League and the title of two best players. However, his career is very short, and the black history outside the field is also particularly large, and he announced his retirement in 2003 due to fouls during the physical test.

In 1995, Gao Feng met the singer Tianhou Na Ying, and the relationship between the two began immediately, and it is said that Na Ying's song "Conquest", which was popular throughout Asia, was sung for Gao Feng. The two lived together for 9 years but never married, in 2004, Na Ying gave birth to a son for Gao Feng, named Happy, but only 6 months later, Gao Feng was sued by a woman to pay the alimony of the illegitimate child. It turned out that Gao Gao had an improper relationship with a bar singer as early as 2000 and subsequently made him pregnant, but refused to admit it after the birth of the child. After the illegitimate incident was exposed, Na Ying, who had an unmarried child, felt very aggrieved and immediately broke up with Gao Feng.
Before he was married, he had two illegitimate children, which made Gao Feng's image as a football genius plummet. In 2013, the 40-year-old Gao Feng married his classmate Fan Chunling in Liaoning Sports School, he invited well-known sports people Huang Jianxiang and Bai Yansong as wedding celebrants, football celebrities such as Qi Wusheng, Tang Pengju and Jin Zhiyang, as well as Gao Feng's former teammates also attended, but Gao Feng's high-profile claim that he was "one marriage" made many people indignant.
However, Gao Feng's black history is far more than this, in 2015, Gao Feng and host Qiu Qiming, actor Nie Yuan and others participated in the Oriental Satellite TV program "Dancing with the Stars", after the program was recorded, several people drank and reveled, but they did not expect to make trouble after drinking and beating the taxi driver. Subsequently, several people were approved for arrest for intentional injury, and this incident caused a sensation in the entertainment industry. A few months later, Gao Feng and Nie Yuan were sentenced to 7 months in prison with a one-year suspended sentence for picking quarrels and provoking trouble, while Qiu Qiming was sentenced to 8 months in prison, also suspended for one year.
In the same year, Gao Feng was detained by the police for smoking the drug methamphetamine in the hotel. In fact, as early as the player period, the peak is that tobacco and alcohol do not leave the hand, for which there is no less punishment. Although smoking is not necessarily related to drug use, it all stems from his unruly personality and extremely undisciplined life. In 2019, Gao Feng was exposed to be involved in drug trafficking with his girlfriend, but it was later clarified that he used drugs again in the process of drug rehabilitation and did not sell drugs. He was subsequently sentenced to 14 days of public security detention and forced to quarantine for two years for drug rehabilitation. China's first striker, who once failed to cash in on his talent and failed to lead the national team to make a breakthrough, but self-destructed his future because of his own self-discipline, which was really regrettable.
