Jin Xiche and Han Geng put on their hats and masks after eating and drinking, and left first, this time their new song "U" was a big hit, and the thirteen members hardly had a good rest for many days, and they had to catch up with countless announcements in addition to singing, so it was not easy for them to squeeze out such a little time to come out and eat with Li Kong and them now.

Li Kong looked at the group of girls who were all looking at the backs of Han Geng and Jin Xiche leaving with envy, and wondered: "Why, looking at your expressions, you are still very envious of Brother Xiche's busy life?"

Zheng Xiuyan hugged Xiao Jing, looked at Li Kong with an idiot look, and said angrily: "Isn't it just to be able to make our debut by training so hard now?" Xiche oppa and Han Geng oppa are so popular in South Korea now, of course we envy them!"

Li Kong looked at Kim Taeyeon and Hwang Mi-young nodding as if they were agreeing, covered his head and shook his head, and said to himself puzzledly: "I really don't understand sometimes, like you as a trainee, you usually train so hard, most of them can't get out of the way, even if they debut, they have to work tirelessly to catch up with the announcement in the past few years, not to mention that they can't make money, and they can't even guarantee their health, is this kind of life really worth it?"

Kim Taeyeon picked up the cup, looked at the orange juice with the pulp in the cup in a daze, and said helplessly: "Because I want to stand on that stage, I have to give up a lot of things, if I want to make my debut in Korea, if I want to be a singer or an idol, I can only take this path, how can I realize my dream if I don't do this?

Lee Kong opened his mouth, but in the end he didn't say anything, looking at Jung so-yeon and Hwang Mi-young, as well as the firmness and stubbornness that flashed in Kim Tae-yeon's eyes, he couldn't help but think of himself.

Yes, for the dream of football, I can train diligently every day for nearly three years and be strict with self-discipline. And these girls are the same, in order to realize their dreams of being singers, they can sacrifice their rest time, get along with friends and relatives, live time, train hard in the company day and night, and accept assessments again and again.

Li Kong was speechless, so he could only persuade the stinky short-lived and the girls to eat more in distress, hoping that they could accumulate more strength to support their struggle.

Half an hour later, after sending Kim Taeyeon and Hwang Mi-young back to the S M company, and also sending the two sisters Zheng Xiuyan and Zheng Xiujing into a taxi, Li Kong took a taxi back to the club.

After greeting a few young players who usually meet often, Li Kong went back to the dormitory to change into sportswear, walked slowly on the training ground for a few laps to further eat, and then walked into the club's gym, no matter when, Li Kong will never forget this: a large part of his success may be due to his talent, but only sweat and diligence will not deceive himself, and only perseverance and hard work can bring greater success and breakthroughs to himself.

It's just that Li Kong may not know that his spirit of hard training day after day has long been used as a positive teaching material by the coaches of various youth echelons to train the club's young players.

Even his mantra: "Only sweat and diligence will not deceive you" were spontaneously posted at the entrance of the academy by the club's academy players, inspiring one after another Seoul FC boys, of course, this is a later story, not to mention for the time being.

The days were spent in this monotonous training and taking Kim Taeyeon to eat meat to "make up for her body", and occasionally invited Lin Yun'er to play tooth sacrifices, July 28th, Li Kong and Li Qinglong, Ji Chengyong and the three of them officially practiced with the seniors of the first team, which also predicted that they were one step closer to the start of the second half of the league.

On August 5th, Choi Yong-so's retirement farewell match was held at the Seoul World Cup Stadium, the home of Seoul FC, Lee Kong played in the second half and finally scored a goal, appearing for the first time as a first-team player in the Seoul FC fan base, after the farewell game, Seoul FC announced to the outside world that it would sign a new coaching contract with Choi Yong-so, and Choi Yong-so will continue to work for the club as an assistant coach in the coming days.

After his debut at Choi Yong-so's farewell match, Lee Kong's information was gradually revealed by some small and medium-sized sports newspapers and magazines in Seoul, and was discovered by Seoul FC's chief scout from the national junior high school championship. After receiving systematic youth training in the Netherlands for more than a year, he was offered by the Dutch giant PSV Eindhoven, but finally chose to return to South Korea.

The relevant staff of Jeonbuk Hyundai Club also accepted an interview with a sports newspaper on August 10, revealing the reason why Jeonbuk Hyundai missed Li Kong that year, the staff revealed that in September 03, the club was already bound to Li Kong, who was still living in Jeonju at the time, but did not expect that the Anyang Cheetah Club at that time used the opportunity to go to the Netherlands youth training to win Li Kong's favor, and the club sent staff to communicate with Li Kong many times and was refused, so he had to give up.

This report also caused many Jeonbuk Hyundai fans to criticize the club, but because Li Kong is a Chinese national, not a native of Jeonju, and has not been trained by Jeonbuk Hyundai Club, Jeonbuk Hyundai fans did not accuse Li Kong of abandoning the "hometown" team, and most of them just expressed regret.

On August 22, 2006, after the afternoon of restorative training, Lee Jang-so gathered the first-team players together and pulled out a note to read out the 18-man squad for the first game of the second half of the league tomorrow.

Before reading it, Lee Jang-so glanced at the players who had been training for a while, and his eyes stayed on Li Kong, Park Joo-yong and Li Qinglong for a while, especially when he saw Li Kong, his already slightly tired heart felt some relief.

In the one-and-a-half-season coaching of Seoul FC, he failed to lead the team to achieve satisfactory results for the top management, who were eager to win the championship, and the players were forced to panic, so why wasn't he under pressure?

When he switched from Jeonnam Cheonryong to Seoul FC in 05, he persuaded the management of Seoul FC to win the young central defender Kim Jin-gyu, who did not get much chance to play in Jeonnam Cheonlong, and in the first season, although he led the team to only finish sixth, it completely activated Kim Jin-gyu's ability and brought the club a main central defender who could be used for at least ten years, and the club also had a more tolerant attitude towards him.

But in the first half of this year's league, he finally led the team to only three wins, seven draws and three losses, and the team was only tied for fourth, and the first-ranked Seongnam and Tianma were even worse than 16 points, and it is said that the club's senior management was already very dissatisfied with him and was ready to fire him directly after this season.

The team's main center has been injured so far, the midfielders have also been injured, and the strikers almost rely on a Park Joo-young to score, and the only thing that can reassure him is the team's goalkeeper and defender line.

However, what he didn't expect was that although the club rejected his request to buy people to strengthen the team during the summer break, several young players recommended to him by the club's youth director Kim Hong-so gave him hope and infinite surprises.

Thinking of this, while looking down on his future in Seoul FC, Lee Jang-so had a trace of expectation in his heart, he cleared his throat, looked at the slightly nervous players, and read: "Tomorrow our starting lineup is, No. 1 Kim Byung-ji, No. 4 Kim Jin-gyu, No. 2 Kim Dong-jin...... No. 7 Park Joo-young, and ......"

Li Zhangzhu read this, raised his head and glanced at Li Kong gently, and then continued to read: "And No. 39 Li Kong, and the other seven players with the team are, No. 17 Li Qinglong, No. 31 Zhao Xiuhe...... That's it, the players who read their names have a good rest tonight, come to recovery training on time tomorrow, and the players who don't read their names don't be late for training tomorrow, you know?"

The players standing in a row hurriedly replied in unison, Li Kong forcibly suppressed his already very excited emotions, and he still looked calm on the surface, he really didn't expect the coach to arrange for him to start tomorrow, or play the position of center!

The team's original thirty-year-old main center Wu Daewoo has been injured for a long time, and Lee Jang-so had no choice but to put Park Joo-yong in the position of a single striker, but the effect was not very good, Seoul FC did not have a strong center, and almost all the players and coaches of the entire K League knew about it, Li Kong originally thought that even if he would play tomorrow, he would come on as a substitute as a midfielder, but he didn't expect the coach to want to play the 442 formation again, and let himself partner with Park Joo-yong's predecessors to play double strikers.

Although Li Kong has long been accustomed to being a midfielder, you must know that when he was in the football team of Yangzhi Middle School, he often played the position of center forward, and when he was in the Dutch youth training, he also played almost all positions on the field except for the goalkeeper, so he will not be uncomfortable when he returns to the position of center forward.

Li Qinglong kicked Li Kong's calf with envy, and muttered in a low voice: "You kid is so lucky! I made it to a list of eighteen people, and Chengyong didn't even make it to the list, so you actually started directly? Did you know some inside information in advance, so you chose the number with the tail number nine? But although the number nine is Wu Dayu's senior, no one wants the nineteenth, why did you choose the thirty-nine?"

Li Kong touched his nose a little embarrassed, and replied in a low voice: "No, because my daughter's birthday is March 9th, I didn't think about it so much, and I don't know any inside information, so it's convenient, so I just use my daughter's birthday as a number~"

Li Qinglong was directly stunned when he heard Li Kong's explanation, and he subconsciously wanted to reply: "Nima! This is okay?" But when he thought that the coach and all the seniors were still here, he resisted the urge to complain about Li Kong, but when he thought of Li Kong's beautiful and childlike female relatives, Li Qinglong still couldn't help muttering sourly: "In the future, please don't stop these things full of love sour smell in front of us single men, okay?!" I can't figure out how a girl like you can like such a cute piece of wood!"

Li Kong scratched his head, and suddenly recalled a photo of Kim Taeyeon and Kim Jiyong laughing and climbing a tree in his mind, and he subconsciously returned: "Maybe, Wuli Taeyeon just likes trees, wood and things like that, hehe~"

Li Qinglong: "......"

West, this damn sour smell of love!
