On the evening of January 9, the fourth episode of the TV feature film "Continue to Make Efforts to Promote in Depth" was broadcast. For the first time, this feature discloses the details of the "Li Tie case."

We all understand that the reason why Li Tie can take charge of the national football team is because he has led the team to successfully surpass. Behind all this, however, lies an untold secret, a series of carefully orchestrated match-fixing attempts to confuse a wide audience. In November 2022, Li Tie, the former head coach of the national football team, was investigated by the supervisory authorities and unveiled this false coat. Since then, the anti-corruption struggle in football has been in full swing, and a number of people suspected of violating discipline and law have been arrested, and at the same time, a series of shady scenes and system loopholes have also been exposed.

In order to become the head coach of the men's national football team, Li Tie used a dual strategy. On the one hand, he skillfully lobbied the Zall club to contribute to help him on his way to promotion. He promised that once in the position, he would give back to the club in many ways. For this, the club generously paid 2 million yuan as a bribe to Chen Xuyuan. On the other hand, Li Tie was well aware of the influence of Liu Yi, the secretary general of the Football Association at the time, so he privately donated 1 million yuan to Liu Yi to seek his support. After confirming the good news of winning the position of head coach of the national team, Li Tie quickly flew to Wuhan to negotiate with Zall Club. The two parties signed a seemingly formal "contract" with a total amount of up to 60 million yuan. However, this contract is nothing more than a cover to cover up the truth about the power-for-money transaction between them. Soon after, Li Tie selected four players from the Zall team to the national team squad. This series of operations not only demonstrates his determination to do whatever it takes to achieve his goals, but also exposes the deep-seated corruption in the football world.

Du Zhaocai (former deputy director of the General Administration of Sports of the People's Republic of China and former secretary of the Party Committee of the Chinese Football Association): I often send money and goods to dredge things, which seems to have formed a bit like a convention in this regard.

Chen Xuyuan (former chairman of the Chinese Football Association): Corruption in Chinese football is not in one aspect, it is all-encompassing.

Li Tie (former head coach of the Chinese men's national football team): Some things are taken for granted in the football circle, but now it seems that many things are illegal and criminal.
