The fourth episode of "Continuing to Promote in Depth" was officially broadcast on the evening of January 9, focusing on corruption cases in the football field. The feature film pays special attention to the confessions of Du Zhaocai, former deputy director of the General Administration of Sports of China and former secretary of the Party Committee of the Chinese Football Association, Chen Xuyuan, former chairman of the Chinese Football Association, and Li Tie, the former head coach of the Chinese national men's football team.
Li Tie's behavior has attracted much attention, and in order to realize his ambitions, he has adopted a series of measures, including lobbying Zall Club to help him become the head coach of the national team, and paying a bribe of 1 million yuan to Liu Yi, secretary general of the Football Association. He also signed a contract with Zall Club for a total of 60 million yuan to cover up the nature of the power-for-money transaction. Although he spent 3 million yuan to "get on the top", Li Tie's coaching level was far from competent.
His cronyism made many fans deeply angry with him, and what was even more terrifying was that he delayed the opportunity for the Chinese men's football team to hit the Qatar World Cup and wasted a lot of money on naturalized players. Naturalized players include foreign players such as Alain, Luo Guofu, and Jiang Guangtai, who have high expectations, however, despite showing good strength, they have always been marginalized by Li Tie and cannot play the greatest effect. This phenomenon makes it impossible for naturalized players to fully exert their strength, and it is impossible to immediately improve the performance of the national football team.
Through the broadcast of "Continuous Efforts to Promote in Depth", we are deeply aware of the complexity and arduousness of the anti-corruption struggle in Chinese football. Only by persevering in our efforts and continuous in-depth advancement can we completely remove the soil that breeds corruption and provide strong support for the healthy development of Chinese football.
