Chapter 25

Today’s information

[Park Jae-heon wants Song Jae-jin to be Park Il-joo’s agent.]

Park Il-joo stared at Jae-jin, who was too easy to answer, as if what was the problem.

“It’s living your own life. He doesn’t have to worry about what he can do better.”

“No, I don’t think you understand the situation well.”

Park Il-joo tried to speak strongly, as if frustrated, but Jae-jin nodded her head.

“I fully understood.”

At the confident answer, Park Il-joo looked at Jae-jin with a slightly anticipatory look.

“Then what are you going to do?”

“The first person I need to convince is not director Lee Woo-seung, but CEO Park Jae-heon.”

“right.”

According to what I found out, the striker recommendation was made by manager Lee Woo-seung and president Park Jae-heon.

Then, if only President Park Jae-heon was persuaded, Lee Woo-seung or Choi Ki-yeol would not be a problem.

“How do you convince your father? You wouldn’t allow it so easily.”

Park Il-joo said in a gloomy voice thinking that it was a little difficult.

It was because the father he had seen was always cold-hearted and not someone who easily breaks his stubbornness.

“The best way is to play as a defensive midfielder and show good form.”

Jaejin’s answer turned red, then his face darkened again and he asked.

‘Your emotions are reflected on your face.’

“But will the coach allow that? Even these days, I’m only practicing as a striker all day.”

At the first appearance, I thought it was quite unprofessional, but looking at it now, Jaejin replied with a smile on the inside at her childish appearance.

“Football teams in Korea don’t always have bills.”

“If I can somehow not play as a striker, I think I can do anything. But do I have to sign an agent contract?”

At the question of Park Il-joo, Song Jae-jin smiled and shook his head.

“Since Park Il-joo is a minor, his parents’ consent is essential for him to sign an agent contract.”

“Ah! I’ll be sure to tell my dad. If only this problem could be solved. Be sure to come.”

Seeing Park Il-joo resolving his own determination, Song Jae-jin started looking for a way to break through the current situation, not just for a contract, but for the players like other players.

‘You can’t claim. That doesn’t mean the impact is too small. Another high school team? Or a college team? I don’t think it’s bad for a college team. He’s also been active as a striker to some extent, so he’ll definitely be able to show an impact.’

In order for Park Jae-heon to change his mind, he had to show enough impact, so Jae-jin quickly scanned his acquaintances in his head to find the best alternative for the current situation.

‘Ah. Come to think of it, isn’t Young-seok supervising the university team right now?’

As soon as the thought opened up, the big picture of the plan began to be drawn quickly.

‘Anyway, the most important thing is that Park Il-joo is doing well.’

After finishing organizing his thoughts, Jae-jin opened her mouth to Park Il-joo, who was staring blankly at him.

“It looks like you got the big picture.”

“Yeah? So fast?”

“It’s just making a big frame.”

And Jaejin explained how he was thinking.

The most important thing in this plan was that Park Il-joo had to agree and Park Il-joo had to do her part.

“Isn’t that a big risk?”

After Jae-jin’s explanation, Park Il-joo said in a slightly worried voice.

“There is nothing in the world without risk. But now, if you were to choose between the two, think about which one is more beneficial to you. That way, your job will be an investment for success, not a risky one.”

Park Il-joo, who was determined to persuade Jae-jin, nodded and answered.

“What should I do first?”

“I need to wake up the sleeping instinct first, right?”

In high school, I played most of the game as a striker, so the urgent thing was to adapt my body to the role of a defensive midfielder again.

“And most importantly, security. You know?”

Security was paramount to the sure success of this work.

It was because there were many beings who would not stand still if they knew this.

And seeing the text that appeared on the hologram window, Song Jae-jin laughed and continued.

“And, um. I think it would be a good idea to finish one thing before training and then move on.”

“Yeah?”

Choi Gi-yeon put on an absurd expression on Lee Woo-seung’s words.

“I heard that one week couldn’t attend training because of work for a while?”

“Suddenly?”

“Huh. I just got a call Didn’t you contact Manager Choi? What’s going on?”

Choi Ki-yeon felt a cold sweat running down her back when she saw Lee Woo-seung answering with a blunt face as if she had no idea.

When this happened about a month after trying to sign an agent contract with Park Il-joo, Choi Ki-yeon spit out abusive language inaudible.

‘damn. That’s not a good sign.’

Moreover, in this case, Director Ahn Ki-yeol turned on his eyes and shouted unconditional success.

After drinking water from Team 2 at camp and drinking water from Jae-Jin Song, Director Ahn Ki-yeol became quite nervous, and it was because he was the one who received the nervousness from the closest distance.

“Did you say anything else?”

“Not at all, someone who was supposed to be the secretary delivered it. Really. Ugh.”

‘What else did Song Jae-jin use?’

Leaving behind the grumbling Lee Woo-seung, Choi Ki-yeon called Ahn Ki-yeol to find out about Song Jae-jin’s war situation.

“Director, I’m going.”

[What’s up? Did you get a contract with Il-Joo Park?]

“Not that. I heard that Park Il-joo suddenly contacted me that he would not attend training. I was wondering if you have heard anything about Song Jae-jin.”

When Choi Ki-yeon finished speaking, Ahn Ki-yeol’s growl was heard.

[Song Jae-jin? is that guy again? He didn’t hear anything.]

“Okay. Let me find out.”

[You know? The importance of this Park Il-ju contract. It has to do with the company’s investment. Park Il-joo must be caught by our team!]

“Yes!”

Ki-yeon Choi sighed with a blank expression on her face, but there was nothing she could do, so he started to inquire about the whereabouts of Song Jae-jin through sources around him.

‘After all, staying in the billing room is a loss.’

After training, Jinyoung Lee led his exhausted body into the house and thought.

The words of the agent who came to sign a contract with him did not leave his mind.

It was because he felt that he hated football, which was so good not only for playing but also for training.

And Jinyoung Lee sent a text message to the number written on the business card he kept in the drawer of his desk.

[Agent. I want to see my parents, so when do you have time?]

In response to Lee Jin-young’s text message, Song Jae-jin set an appointment time and place, and began to collect his materials.

Over the past period, while observing Lee Jin-young, he had made a rough plan.

“Hello.”

Lee Jin-young’s father, whom he met at the promised Korean restaurant, was an unusual person.

“Hello. My name is Lee Han-yong. I heard the story often. You want to sign an agent contract with my kid.”

“Yeah. I want to sign an agent contract.”

“How did you see my child?”

It was like looking into Song Jae-jin’s innermost eyes.



But Jaejin did not hesitate at all and smiled and took out her tablet.

“First of all, the basics are pretty good. When I first went to see Jinyoung Lee, he stayed after the game to practice the basics. And the basics are very important as you move up to a higher league.”

To Jaejin’s answer, Lee Hanyong only nodded his head, but did not respond.

“And when I saw the play video before going to the billing room, it reminded me of Philip Lam.”

Philipp Lahm, the best defender and midfield commander who played for Bayern Munich in Germany.

As Jinyoung became interested in Lee Jinyoung, he even looked for a video before he transferred to Chungju High School, and through that video, Jaejin could feel the image of Philip Lam.

“Philip Lam?”

“Yes, the German legend Philip Lahm.”

At Jaejin’s words, Hanyong Lee nodded his head.

Jinyoung Lee’s height is around 170. He’s that tall as a defender. Nor did he have exceptionally fast feet.

Therefore, Lee Han-yong emphasized the basics to Lee Jin-young, who started soccer, and at the same time showed Philip Lam’s play video to learn soccer.

And luckily, he was able to establish himself as a high school prospect until he transferred to middle school and then to the high school because he had a talent for defense.

“Of course, I still have a long way to go. But the older he gets, the more likely he is to develop.”

What Song Jae-jin felt after meeting Lee Jin-young a few times was that his father had a great influence.

However, he was not surrounded by his father’s arms.

What he felt the most was that the training he did alone after the regular training at his school was different from the general training method.

The kind of training that Jaejin can see in Europe, which is very advanced for his evaluation.

Jinyoung Lee’s father is a police officer. He was an occupation that had absolutely nothing to do with football.

Then, if you think about Lee Jin-young’s age, I guessed that Jin-young Lee’s parents had a great interest in overseas soccer since childhood, and it is highly likely that they grew up watching it.

“Then what do you think is the best way to do it? Mr. Song.”

At the same time as Lee Han-yong said, Jae-jin opened the file he had made in advance on the tablet.

“Getting out of the bill right away is the top priority. If he stays in the billboard, Jinyoung Lee doesn’t seem to be able to bloom any more.”

“Uh… .”

Lee Han-yong was also thinking about it.

Due to his order, he was forced to transfer to Seoul, and fortunately, he was able to send a high-profile soccer team to a prestigious school.

However, his son’s form, which he had seen in a long time, was because he felt that he had completely died in less than a year after transferring to school.(Read more @ wuxiax.com)

“In the case of Jinyoung Lee, he is very good at overlapping in addition to defense. However, the current billing high is hindering the growth of Jinyoung Lee. If we keep going like this, we can go pro, but I think that will be the end of it.”

“Pro is over.”

“In my personal opinion, at least the possibility of going overseas is a big deal.”

overseas expansion.

It was a dream word.

Of the soccer players playing in Korea, there must have been no one who would not want to advance abroad.

“Do you think this guy has a chance to succeed in overseas leagues?”

“I see a lot of potential. just.”

Song Jae-jin made eye contact with Lee Han-yong and Lee Jin-young and continued speaking.

“But going overseas is not an easy road. There are a lot of issues that need to be dealt with, from language problems to adaptation.”

Lee Han-yong nodded in a positive sense to Song Jae-jin’s words.

It is because there are not one or two places that you need to pay attention to if you are far away even within the same Republic of Korea.

“That’s right, of course.”

“Dad. I want to go abroad.”

Lee Jin-young, who was listening to the two of them, looked straight into Lee Han-yong’s eyes and said, as if he had made a firm resolve.

And Lee Han-yong, reading his son’s eyes, said calmly.

“It will be difficult.”

Because there is nothing more difficult than living in a foreign country.

“still. My maternal grandmother is also in Holland!”

At Lee Jin-young’s answer, Song Jae-jin felt like his ears were shining.

“Is her maternal grandmother in the Netherlands?”

“Ah. Yes. She is from a place called Nuenn in the Netherlands.”

‘Where is Nuenen, Netherlands?’

When the hologram indicated Nunan’s location in response to the question, Song Jae-jin smiled.

Nunan is right near Eindhoven.

It was because the city was only about 6km away from Philips Stadium, the home stadium of Eindhoven.

“If I can live with my grandparents, I think Jinyoung Lee will have a much more stable life than living alone. It helps a lot with the transfer.”

“Oh, is it? Still, Jinyoung.”

Song Jae-jin, who knew what Lee Han-yong was worried about, continued with a smile.

“And, it’s a coincidence. Personally, I like the Dutch league. Among them, I was going to recommend Eindhoven.”

“Are you talking about Eindhoven?”
