On August 30, 2022, a heavy news on the website of the Central Commission for Discipline Inspection and Supervision of the State Supervisory Commission (CCDI) sparked an uproar. According to the website, citing information from the Discipline Inspection and Supervision Group of the Central Commission for Discipline Inspection and the Shandong Provincial Commission for Discipline Inspection and Supervision, Wang Dengfeng, the head of the Ministry of Education's Department of Physical Education, Health and Arts Education, is currently facing disciplinary review by the Discipline Inspection and Supervision Group of the Central Commission for Discipline Inspection and the Shandong Provincial Supervisory Commission and a supervisory investigation by the Shandong Provincial Supervisory Commission for allegedly committing major disciplinary violations.
Looking back at Wang Dengfeng's career, he was deeply involved in school soccer affairs and even once ranked among the vice presidents of the CFA. However, as the investigation deepened, former Dalian side general manager Shi Xueqing could not help but speak out, strongly accusing Wang Dengfeng's behavior.

In January 2014, Wang Dengfeng was elected vice president of the 10th CFA and has been primarily responsible for the promotion of national youth soccer in the years since. On August 23, the office of the National Leading Group for Youth Campus Football reportedly held the opening ceremony of the 2022 National Youth Campus Football Summer Camp in Shenyang, Liaoning Province.

This was also Wang Dengfeng's last public appearance in the media.
