Kong Linghui’s current situation is as follows:

In 2008, Kong Linghui failed to guide the competition to recruit the head coach of women’s table tennis, but he still became Liu Shiwen’s head coach. Liu Shiwen defended her World Cup twice, thanks to Kong Linghui's guidance. In 2013, Kong Linghui became the head coach of the Chinese women's team! At the 2016 Rio Olympics, Kong Linghui guided and led the team to win the women's team championship.

Everything looks like Coach Kong Linghui is about to lead Chinese women’s table tennis into the fast lane. But here comes the surprise! During the 2017 World Table Tennis Championships, it was revealed that the coach Kong Linghui was involved in a gambling incident in Singapore. Kong Linghui then gave instructions to urgently refute the rumors, but it seemed to have no effect! For this reason, Kong Linghui coached and left the Chinese table tennis team!

Since then, Kong Linghui rarely appeared in front of the camera! Occasionally, it's more about activities that have nothing to do with table tennis. Regarding the situation of Director Kong Linghui, Director Liu Guoliang was also very worried! It is rumored that he has invited Kong Linghui to coach many times, but he was rejected by Kong Linghui all the time (I don’t know if it’s true or not, it’s just a rumor)!

The reason for the rejection is probably that the current women's team is getting better and better, and coaching it yourself is just the icing on the cake! It is worth mentioning that since Kong Linghui left the national table tennis team, he has devoted himself to studying purple clay pots. Now he has a very deep knowledge of purple clay pots.

Kong Xiangzhi will only 12-year-old Kong Linghui was reluctantly sent to the national team.
