It is not easy for Lin Dan to get back his hard-earned money. The internal situation of the club is complicated.
At the beginning, he gave Tianwang a "chance to change", but now he is dragging his salary of 4 million.
Who owe Lin Dan money?
Our reporter Chen Kai.
Who would have thought that Lin Dan, the king of badminton, would also be owed wages?
The night before yesterday, "Super Dan" issued a joint statement through Weibo, claiming that Guangzhou Yueyu was in arrears with the salaries of seven players, including herself. If she did not pay all the salaries immediately, she would take the other team to court. It is reported that the salary payable to Lin Dan is 4 million, but it may not be easy for him to recover this hard-earned money. The internal situation of Yueyu Club, which owes money, is not generally complicated.

Lin Dan was angry and sent Weibo to ask for a salary at night.
In the statement on rights protection for salary issued at 21: 00 on Tuesday, Lin Dan revealed: At the invitation of Gao Jun and Fu Xun last year, he joined Guangzhou Yueyu to play in the China Badminton Super League. From December 2016 to February this year, he played a total of eight games, kept winning, and even offered two of them for free. But what makes Lin Dan chilling is that he is so loyal, but the club has no face and no skin. So far, he doesn’t even pay a penny. "In the case of not receiving the remuneration payable by the club, I still insisted on completing the competition. And our athletes’ understanding of the club is actually delayed again and again! We have communicated with Yueyu Club many times about the payment of salary, and so far the club’s solution attitude is really helpless and disappointing. "
In addition to Lin Dan, there are six other players who signed the salary statement. Lin Dan was owed a total salary of 4 million, more than the total salary of the other six people. Lin Dan is rich, maybe 4 million is nothing to him, but for those less famous players, they are still waiting to get paid to live. A Guangdong badminton player who was owed money said that they had repeatedly asked for a salary through various means, but the club had all kinds of delays, that is, they had no choice but to think of "Weibo asking for a salary".
The team’s tone was loud and once called the king a chance.
Lin Dan represented Guangzhou Yueyu in the competition, and was once described by the local media as "going back to her mother’s home" because his wife, Xie Xingfang, was a native of Guangzhou. At that time, it coincided with the exposure of "Super Dan" derailment, and the glorious image was shattered overnight. At that time, the introduction of Lin Dan was announced, and Guangzhou Yueyu was very vocal. Gao Jun, chairman and head coach of the club, made a statement: Lin Dan’s contribution to badminton in China and the world should not be obliterated because of some off-site events, so he was willing to give Lin Dan a chance, and he did not want Lin Dan to miss the possibility of back in the game.
At that time, Lin Dan needed to re-enter the arena to save his image, and the Guangdong Badminton Club was also willing to rely on the joining of the first badminton star to attract fans to expand their influence. The marriage between the two sides, not to mention who holds who’s thigh, is more like a dry fire and hits it off. However, only half a year later, the two sides turned against each other. Yes, Yue Yu did extend his hand in times of crisis, but regardless of whether Lin Dan went to Guangdong because of his wife, since he signed a contract and made efforts on the field according to the contract, he should be paid according to the contract. Who said "go back to your parents’ home" and you can’t ask for money?
The chairman complained that my salary was also in arrears
Do you owe Lin Dan a salary? You can have this. Is it possible to pay now? This is really not. Gao Jun, the chairman of Yueyu Club, is also very helpless. "I haven’t even got my own salary."
According to Gao Jun’s explanation to the media, he was named by Lin Dan, which was purely a blame, because the management right of the club was transferred to a third party, that is, Fu Xun’s company the year before last. "I was not in Weibo, but a friend told me this happened tonight. I was shocked and worried. Tomorrow morning, I will go to Heyuan City to learn about it. " As for whether he can solve the problem, Gao Jun said that he can’t guarantee it. "I can’t say this now, but I can only say that I will do my best. After all, athletes should get their due wages after playing the ball. I have nothing to avoid about this matter. "
Gao Jun thinks he is also one of the victims, because after signing the agreement to transfer the management right for four years, he is also owed salary, but he is in his own position, and he can’t ask for salary openly like Lin Dan. In this way, the chairman really needs to be as wronged as possible.
Li Longda is glad that foreign players get paid first.
In fact, it is not only the seven foreign players signed by Lin Dan and others who are owed wages by Yue Yu. It is said that other local players who play for the club have not been paid. Moreover, after learning the news, some people came to ask for old debts. Wang Yihan, a former national badminton player and women’s singles star, broke the news that Yue Yu had been in arrears with his salary for three years and has not settled it yet.
Wang Yihan said through Weibo that in the 2013-2014 season, she was loaned to Yueyu Club. As a result, Yue Yu not only failed to pay the rental fee of Shanghai Table Tennis and Badminton Center, but also paid only half of her salary, and the remaining half was always delayed. Later, she simply refused to answer her phone. However, according to Wang Yihan, the Yueyu Club at that time should not have transferred the management right.
Even the salaries of national players like Lin Dan and Wang Yihan depend on it, and the practice of Yue Yu is irritating enough. However, what is even more irritating is yet to come. Last year, in addition to Lin Dan, Li Longda and Shen Baizhe, famous Korean badminton players, represented Guangdong in the Badminton Super League. As a result, Li and Shen urged them many times, and with the official intervention, Yue Yu finally paid their full salary … What was the situation? Is it true that foreign players can have priority and don’t have to queue up for the same salary?
It is difficult for the payer to find a triangular debt or a quadrangular debt.
Dare to owe money to Lin Dan, is this club really something? According to the information of the National Enterprise Credit Information System, Guangzhou Yueyu Badminton Club was established in 2010 with a registered capital of RMB 3 million. The legal representative is Gao Jun and the legal shareholder is Guangzhou Badminton Association. Other shareholders include Guangdong TV Station, Guangdong Radio Station and Guangzhou Daily.
Guangzhou Yueyu won the badminton super league championship in 2012, but it has been difficult in operation, so it will transfer the management right. Although Gao Jun is the chairman of the board, what he usually does is the head coach’s business, and the management is handed over to Fu Xun’s company. According to Fu Xun’s personal certification Weibo, he seems to have served as the executive vice president of Guangzhou Yueyu before.
According to Gao Jun, Lin Dan claimed the salary from Guangzhou Yueyu, but his contract was actually signed with Fu Xun’s company. Fu Xun Company is located in Huizhou, but it is sponsored in Heyuan, Guangdong, so the team moved to the local area at home last year. The team is officially called "Heyuan Rural Commercial Bank Team", and the sponsors also include a well-known mineral water brand. However, for some reasons, "there is a problem in a certain link in the middle of the payment, which leads to the current situation." Does it sound like a detour? That’s right. Lin Dan’s salary looks more like a triangular debt or even a quadrangle debt.
Lin Dan is not interested in this: "How they negotiate and what is the relationship between them has nothing to do with us athletes. We didn’t receive any salary. This is what they have to solve. There is nothing else to say. " It’s natural for Lin Dan to ask for a salary, but who can be found to pay the money in the end? This is a realistic problem.
