Chapter 13 Lu Lin's Thoughts

"Old Hong, the phone, Lu Lin's..."

A community in Pengli City, at 9:[-] p.m.

Coach Hong was leaning on the bed and watching TV with relish, when his wife's voice came from the living room.

"This kid, I don't even look at the time, and I still call at night..."

Reluctantly, he got up from the bed, put on some clothes, and Lao Hong had some thoughts in his mouth.

"Hey, let me say, Old Lu, what's the matter, what time is it? What's the matter at school!?"

Picking up the phone, Coach Hong was a little annoyed. Today is a day for a special event. If it wasn't for his wife who still has some things to pack, he would probably be on the bed by now. If... it might be so exciting.

"Haha, have you disturbed the fun of you and your sister-in-law? Are you blaming me, a bachelor?"

Lu Lin's voice came over the phone, teasing lightly.

"You boy, just be poor. Let your sister-in-law tell you a daughter-in-law some other day. She is in her thirties and still single. I think Xiao Feng's is good. She is not married yet..."

"No, I'm so much older than her. She's studying now, and she might have a bright future in the future. Don't bother her. I'm convinced. Let's talk business, talk business!"

On the phone, Lu Lin hurriedly begged for mercy, not wanting to discuss these issues with Coach Hong.

Coach Hong smiled, Lu Lin has two major weaknesses, the former veteran volleyball national team and the former young fan Feng Jing, as long as this is mentioned, he will definitely be able to poke it. Coach Feng is very experienced.

"Tell me what's going on, depending on the time, you brought those three boys to training and it's been a while since you finished training, right? What's the matter?"

Lu Lin's tone became serious: "There are some small things to report to your head coach. It's not long after the end. Today is like this..."

On the phone, Lu Lin gave him an overview of the previous training with Lin Mu and the three, and then talked about the three-person confrontation training.

"Oh? Lu Ming, Li Feng and Han Chen?"

When it comes to the confrontation match, three-on-three, or the three outstanding top players, Coach Hong became a little interested: "How about it, did the three boys in Lin Mu lose badly?"

According to Coach Hong's thinking, the combination of the combination, even if Lin Mu's three volleyball skills are not bad, it is basically impossible to win.Volleyball is, after all, a team sport.

"Haha, the students I lead can still lose?!"

Coach Lu was a little proud and said with a smile.

Coach Hong was a little surprised, "Heh, I didn't lose. Tell me about the fight?"

"After two rounds, it was tied 1-1. If we continue to fight, Lu Ming and the others won't be able to win! The first round..."

"Um, ho, oh..."

Listening to what Lu Lin said, Coach Hong responded from time to time.

After all, Coach Hong is a professional coach. When Lu Lin talked about volleyball, he described it very well. He could roughly simulate the situation at that time in his mind.

To be honest, he was really surprised. The setter Gong Cheng was precise and adaptable.

Wei Xiao is very good at jumping, has good reaction and movement, and has a high rate of first pass and catch.

There is also Lin Mu who can arrange cooperative tactics, has a good personal defense, and is even top-notch offensively.

He felt that it didn't sound right to him.

As far as personal basic skills are concerned, the current three boys are indeed good, not bad compared to other students.But being able to perform to the extent that Lu Lin said in a confrontation is not just about having basic skills.

Need technology, need brains, need talent.

It's not that he suspects Lu Lin's intentional bragging, it's just...

"Well, I'm not mistaken, I still have good eyesight, let me tell you, Lao Hong, the students of this class may be..."

Lu Lin's words interrupted Coach Hong's thoughts, and the tone of his speech was even more enthusiastic.

Over the phone, Coach Hong shook his head with a smile, wondering if the students can make a fuss, in fact, he is not so entangled now.

Having worked in a sports school for more than ten years, his status is not high, but he can be regarded as a person who can talk.As for leading the students, his heart has long been polished, and he has not experienced the big stage like Lu Lin.

However, he is still happy to see that Lu Lin can have passion and motivation.

"Let's talk, your call at night is not just to brag to me that you have a good eye and a strong student, right? What genius haven't you seen?"

"Haha, that's it. To make a long story short, don't bother you and sister-in-law..."

"For the three recommendations every year, I gambled on Lin Mu. You have to make up your mind. As for the others, see if you can do this..."

Lu Linyi said that Coach Hong was silent.

The provincial echelon team recommends three places for trial training each year. According to the volleyball program, there are twenty or thirty students in one session, which is actually not a small proportion.But after all there are only three.

In previous years, when I went to tryouts, few were left behind, but even if I didn’t stay, I could learn something from the provincial team to gain qualifications, and it would be no problem to go directly to the high school when I came back.Therefore, this quota is quite precious.

As a veteran head coach, he basically has the recommendation authority for one spot. He made a bet before and gave Lin Mu one, and he has already planned to use his authority.

But according to Lu Lin's current thinking, it's a bit difficult.

"Old Lu, you made a bet with me before, and I can tell you about Lin Mu. If you follow your idea and select them all based on skills and potential, it will be difficult to achieve.

A playing lineup, six players, no matter how many times they play, it is impossible for all of them to perform.In terms of height and comprehensive voxel, Wei Xiao, Gong Cheng and Li Feng can be seen at a glance.

In fact, you also understand the specific situation. Potential, talent, and basic technical skills do vary.But again, it's really false. We are not the ones who have the right to say who is talented and what will happen in the future.

It’s not bad, how much is worse, what’s shown, it’s hard to say clearly…”

On the other end of the phone, the office of the volleyball team of the sports school.

Lu Lin held the phone close to his ear, and listened to what Coach Hong said, frowning tightly.

The momentary surge of enthusiasm just now was suppressed back to its original position by Coach Hong's realistic words.

He knew that it was indeed his own thinking that was a bit simpler. It was hard to tell who had the talent and how much potential they had.Even from the perspective of ordinary professionals, the players are not really a big gap, and it is impossible to say who is superior and who is inferior.

What's more, in many cases, the people who see it are not even professionals.He is not the former Director Dai, Director Yuan, and his professional words are not so important.

"Old Lu, don't be discouraged. We can discuss things again. For training, you can continue to take care of them, not only these three boys, but also the other boys. It’s not that there is no turning point. In terms of professionalism, I still believe in you..."

Lu Lin nodded, "Old Hong, I understand, you can talk about it during training tomorrow..."

"Well, that's it, go to bed early, I understand how you feel, but it's not a matter of a short while. It's also our Huizhou, our sports school, volleyball is too bad..."

"Alright, Lao Hong, let's go to work!"

Lu Lin tried his best to keep his tone relaxed, and made a joke, then hung up the phone without giving Coach Hong a chance to speak.

Gently put the phone back to its original position, Lu Lin's brows were still furrowed.

volleyball...

Leaning back in the chair, Lu Lin murmured.

……

"Hey, Lao Li, Lao Lu, can you fight today? Not yesterday!"

In the afternoon of the next day, the day's training class was at the end, and when the class was about to finish, Wei Xiao came up to Li Feng and Lu Ming, shaking her head and said with a smile.

"It's lucky to win a game and then you'll be on the tsundere? You're still far behind, if you weren't careless yesterday..."

Li Feng's complexion was not very good. He went there with the idea of ​​teaching Lin Mu and the three of them a lesson, but in the end he lost a game. More importantly, even he understood that in the end he couldn't run anymore and continued to run. will continue to lose.

Today, when he was training, he kept thinking about how he could lose.This time, I was occasionally distracted during training, and I was told by the coach several times that I was very depressed.

It will depend on Wei Xiao's embarrassment to mention this again, how can he look good.

Wei Xiao, who is 175 centimeters tall, stands next to Li Feng, who is 1 meters tall, and the difference in height is particularly obvious.But judging from the expression and momentum, the two are in contrast, which makes people look extraordinarily weird.

Lin Mu walked over, looked at Lu Ming with a flat expression, and smiled at each other.

"Line up and go, the coach will give a lecture later..."

Lin Mu pulled Wei Xiao, smiled and nodded at Li Feng: "Li Feng, Wei Xiao is not malicious, we have been classmates for several years and we all know each other's temperament...

However, if you have time, you can play training games together, and we can also train and improve together..."

"Humph!"

Li Feng snorted lightly, didn't pick up the trouble, so don't overdo it.

Lin Mu didn't care too much, and pulled Wei Xiao who wanted to talk later, smiled and went back to line up.

"What's going on here? It looks like something is wrong?!"

"Who are you asking? How do I know what they have to do!"

"In other words, depending on the situation, it seems that they have played ball..."

"Hehe, it's quite interesting, let's see it again, and see it again!"

"..."

Thirty small people lined up in two sparse rows. Many people had seen the interaction between Lin Mu, Wei Xiao, and Li Feng just now.

It doesn't feel great to be glanced at Lu Ming from time to time. It's just a small training confrontation, and it's still a three-person team, which is just enough to get familiar with the rhythm.

In his mind, it was just like what Lin Mu said, it was just training, and it was really not worth it.He's only in junior high school, so he's only getting there, and his goal has never been a sports school.

But this was not the case for Li Feng, who had always been top-notch and high-spirited. He felt a little uncomfortable, and he groaned heavily in his heart.

It was a small confrontation that was relatively private temporarily. Few people knew about it. The only ones who knew the specific result were the other three roommates in Lin Mu's dormitory.

They listened to the students' gossip, but they didn't know what to say, after all, they just watched the fun.

"Beep!"

A whistle sounded, and the three coaches walked to the front of the line, and the training hall fell silent.

"Say something!"

Coach Hong took a step forward, glanced around, paused between the few students he was paying attention to, and then spoke.

"This year is coming to an end, and your time in junior high school is getting less and less. You may not understand things that are too far away, so let's talk about something practical. When you graduate next year, how you can continue to go depends on your own plans. Your next efforts..."

Dozens of pairs of eyes stared at Coach Hong, and the simple and realistic words made these students feel a little special.The slightly more mature students couldn't help but think about the possible future.

"Starting at 7 o'clock every night, the No. [-] old volleyball hall, Coach Lu will lead people to train there. Anyone who wants to go can go..."

"..."

A small voice sounded in the queue, without a sentence, more like an emotion.Many students actually know about Coach Lu's training, but the first time the coach mentioned it publicly, they don't quite understand what it means.

"It's not compulsory, and it's not homework. I'm serious. I just want to play around with it. Don't waste your time. Weigh it up and think it through..."

Coach Hong shouted with a stern face, the students understood, go, train hard, and don't bother if you want to join in the fun.Judging by Coach Hong's tone, he was planning to play along, and the situation might be even worse.

This time, they knew what was going on.

He scanned the students below again, turned his head to look at Lu Lin and Coach Liu, and saw that they shook their heads, and Coach Hong clapped his hands.

"Okay, get out of class!"
