Zhang / Wang teamed up in 2006. They began competing together in the 2007-2008 season. They won two bronze medals on the 2007–2008 ISU Junior Grand Prix circuit and qualified for the 2007 Junior Grand Prix Final. They made their senior Grand Prix debut at the 2007 Cup of China.
Although they placed eighth on the day, they were later moved up a spot to a seventh place finish at the 2007–2008 ISU Junior Grand Prix Final following the retroactive disqualification of first-place-finishers Vera Bazarova / Yuri Larionov due to a positive doping sample from Larionov.
They finished their season at the 2008 World Junior Championships where they helped China earn three pairs spots to the 2009 event.

Famous quotes containing the word career:
“I’ve been in the twilight of my career longer than most people have had their career.”
—Martina Navratilova (b. 1956)
“What exacerbates the strain in the working class is the absence of money to pay for services they need, economic insecurity, poor daycare, and lack of dignity and boredom in each partner’s job. What exacerbates it in upper-middle class is the instability of paid help and the enormous demands of the career system in which both partners become willing believers. But the tug between traditional and egalitarian models of marriage runs from top to bottom of the class ladder.”
—Arlie Hochschild (20th century)
“They want to play at being mothers. So let them. Expressing tenderness in their own way will not prevent girls from enjoying a successful career in the future; indeed, the ability to nurture is as valuable a skill in the workplace as the ability to lead.”
—Anne Roiphe (20th century)
