Chapter 116 Building a Football Empire

Without the severe reprimand as expected, after listening to his son's words, Li Junsheng fell into a rare silence. He seemed to have thought for a while before asking Li Zhao: "What do you think? I want to hear your opinion?"

"It's me!" Li Zhao was a little dull and stunned for a while before continuing: "Originally, I was disgusted with the so-called scout who forced me to leave the basketball team, but for some reason, I am not that resistant now. It's just that I'm not familiar with that person, so I have no confidence in the future and I feel like I can't find the direction."

"Haha, what you said means that you are very confused and have lost confidence. This is not like what my son should have!" Li Junsheng felt a little meaningful when he said this.

"It seems that you have an idea, dad." Li Zhao understood something from Li Junsheng's words, but he just couldn't grasp the key points.

"I finally understand one thing! But this still has to go back to my question just now and talk about your attitude towards it to know whether my opinion is useful to you." Li Junsheng sighed and said.

"So that's it, then I can accept your proposal." Li Zhaodao.

"Very good. My opinion is that the person who has bothered you and Coach Chen before will appear again. However, in my judgment, if you reject him, he should not come to you again in the future. What will be done in the future depends on you." Li Junsheng's words were scrutinized.

"Okay, I understand." Li Zhao replied.

"What are you two muttering about? The meal is ready, so I can't come and eat." The voice of my mother Zhao Xueqin came from the dining table.

"Oh, okay, I'm here!" The father and son responded in unison, and at the same time they moved quickly to wash their hands, and then went to the dining table to report to eat.

After dinner, Li Zhao went out for a walk.

"Hello, Li, is it convenient to go there to sit there?" When he was about to walk to the community garden, Li Zhao met the so-called scout last time, a middle-aged man with slightly bald hair. He thought that his father's words were quite accurate, but the time seemed to have improved too much, and it was not until the next day. Looking in the direction of his finger, it was the cafe at the entrance of the community.

"You, sure?" Li Zhao asked with confusion. Did he know that the consumption standards of that cafe are not considered high consumption, but they are definitely not low. They are not something that middle school students like him can afford. There are only a few pitiful pocket money in his pocket.

As if seeing Li Zhao's embarrassment, the middle-aged man smiled and said, "Don't worry, if someone wants to see you, he will naturally be the one who pays the bill. I am just entrusted by someone to be loyal to others. Oh, I have never introduced it before, my name is Zhang Yong."

Li Zhao originally wanted to refuse such invitations from strangers, but then he thought about what was there to be afraid of on his own territory. Although he was still in his prime, he was not weak. An ordinary adult would definitely not be able to take over him. In any case, the other party could not get it. Thinking of this, he followed the middle-aged man into the cafe.

Entering the cafe, a middle-aged man with sunglasses and a slightly hunched back attracted Li Zhao's attention. The man in sunglasses looked at him and nodded to greet him, making Li Zhao understand that he was looking for him. Sure enough, Zhang Yong took Li Zhao to the table of the man in sunglasses.

"Sit down, don't be polite!" Zhang Yong pulled Li Zhao to sit opposite the man in sunglasses, and sat down next to him, and said to the man in sunglasses: "Brother Liu, I've brought the person here. It depends on you if you can convince him."

The man in sunglasses smiled at him and said to Li Zhao: "Hello, Zhang Yong was entrusted by me to come to you. I'm sorry to bother you like this. I'm not here to accompany you."

"This is not a big deal. That, you... aren't it..." Li Zhao was a little incoherent, just because he suddenly felt that the person in front of him looked extremely familiar.

"Haha, I'm still seen!" The man in the sunglasses smiled helplessly, took off his sunglasses, then quickly put them on, and said, "I forgot to introduce myself, I have a nicknamed "Captain Liu". I'm not afraid of you to make fun of you. Nowadays, I have to be careful that people will be recognized when I go out."

"I have been looking back for a long time, but when I saw you today I realized that you are much more handsome than on the TV network." Li Zhaodao.

"Haha, okay, don't say flattery, you kid, I know my own affairs. It's not as good as you said, but it shouldn't be bad. Go back to the point, you should also understand my purpose. Here I will send you a sincere invitation again." Liu Jun said seriously.

"I thank you for your respect for me so much, but can this matter allow me to think about it for a while? I will tell you my decision after I have thought about it." Li Zhao said.

Hearing Li Zhao's words, Liu Jun was a little displeased and said, "I don't know what you have to worry about. If I can help you as much as possible; or how long I need to wait for you, you can give a clear answer. Even if you really reject me, I can understand and no longer bother you. But I can't tolerate you being so perfunctory. Although I cherish my talents, I will not lose my bottom line. If you deliberately did this because of the previous incident, then I will admit it. Goodbye!" After Liu Jun said that, he stood up and prepared to walk out.

"Wait, Coach Liu, I think you probably misunderstood what I mean. In addition, there is another factor that I can't be sure of is that I don't know why you chose me. I can have no foundation in this regard, and I just know some basic rules of the game." Li Zhao hurriedly called Liu Jun, but he couldn't see Liu Jun's slightly upturned mouth.

"Haha, this kid is still a little tender. If I do something, I can't conquer you. I'll be in vain for so many years." Liu Jun thought so, then turned around and deliberately put on an unhappy expression and said, "You kid can't explain it clearly! You must be glad that you meet me now. If someone dares to talk to me like this according to my previous temper, I would have punched me long ago. Don't think that you are so great. Whether I originally planned to succeed or not depends on tonight. If I don't work, I will lose it. I don't have the time and patience to compensate you."

After saying this, Liu Jun glared at him again, then relaxed and said: "Originally, according to the general situation, I did have any interaction with you, a kid. After all, they are different events. I didn't pay much attention to other games before, but I've also visited them in the past few years. I didn't care much about this when my friend invited me to be a guest in that basketball game. I didn't care too much at first, but your performance attracted my attention."

Li Zhao listened quietly to Liu Jun's words and did not interrupt because he knew that the next thing was the key.

Sure enough, Liu Jun continued: "You have performed very actively throughout the game. It can be said that your entire team mainly depends on you. If your teammates can perform slightly better, the final champion is probably yours. However, it is good that you can get the second place with these unreliable teammates. With my relationship, if you help me, you may also have a place in the professional team with your strength, but that's all. What I'm interested in is not only your excellent physical fitness, but also your flexible brain, these are your greatest capital.

By relying on these alone, your achievements in basketball are still limited. Your height is not short among ordinary people, but you still suffer a lot in a tall world. After all, this is a more dominant field. Don’t tell me about Iverson. People should know how to play to their strengths and avoid their weaknesses. Only in this way can they go further. If your talents are used in football, you may have more advantages. Although your foundation in this area may be poor, it is secondary and can be made up for it the day after tomorrow. Moreover, you are only 13 years old this year. Those peers like you have only practiced a few years earlier than you."
