34. Chapter XXXIV

Yan Jing went to the post-match press conference alone, and Dortmund, who won the game by a large score, became the focus of everyone's attention, and the reporters continued to ask Yan Jing all kinds of questions, while Dole, who had a bad face on the side, was basically ignored.

Dealing with the media in Germany, Yan Jing can be said to have no pressure at all, plus he won the first victory of the new season, he was in a good mood, and joked with a few reporters who are usually familiar.

"You asked me the secret to winning? I asked a Chinese feng shui master to change the wardrobe in the locker room before the game. ”

Pieters, a reporter from Bild who asked the question, nodded and sat down, as if he didn't understand.

Feng Shui master, I don't understand it, but I seem to be very powerful.

As soon as Yule Lambert, who was ordered by press officer Leo Sher, stood up, Yan Jing quickly shook his head and took the lead in speaking.

"Yule, why Thuram joined us, I don't know. ”

The reporters present all laughed, and they knew very well that Yan Jing was joking about Thuram.

Lambert coughed twice in the laughter of his peers and continued his work: "Yan, you have won a hearty victory in the first game of the new season, congratulations." Borussia Dortmund finished runners-up in the Bundesliga and quarter-finals of the Champions League last season, so what are your goals for this season?"

Hearing Lambert's question, Yan Jing couldn't help but take a deep breath.

Last season, due to the intensity and depth of the squad, he was always conservative about the ultimate goal, and did not have the courage to say the slogan of winning the championship.

He paused for a moment, and finally had the confidence to show the world his deep ambition.

"Champion. ”

The reporters present calmed down suddenly, Yan Jing's answer was too brief, and for a while they were a little suspicious that what they heard was not right, but at this time Yan Jing emphasized it again in a timely manner.

"Dortmund's ultimate goal this season...... Undoubtedly, the Bundesliga champions. ”

Early the next morning, the news of Dortmund's four-goal win over Hamburg made the headlines of many German newspapers, and Yan Jing's championship declaration and the outstanding performance of new signing Ribery became the focus of reporters.

Yan Jing came to the training ground from his home and walked into the dressing room, where he saw the players in a circle, with Ribery holding a newspaper in the middle, and Suarez reading the words on the newspaper next to him.

"The French Magic Wing made his debut in Westphalia, and he ran incredibly fast, like a bolt of lightning falling from the sky across the pitch, bringing thousands of cheers with him......"

Didn't you just say yesterday that you don't understand what you look good at? If you don't understand it, ask your teammates to help you see it?

The players read the newspaper and watched it with fascination, and from time to time let out sighs at the exaggerated descriptions inside, without noticing that Yan Jing was already standing in front of them.

"What are you looking at so energetically?"

Yan Jing's voice suddenly appeared, startling all the players, and they scattered like birds and beasts in seconds, leaving Ribery and naturally greeting Yan Jing.

"Good morning, Chief!"

"Good morning, how did you sleep last night?" Yan Jing replied casually with a smile, and the Frenchman, who wanted to stuff the newspaper back into the closet, took it away.

Yan Jing shook the newspaper, searched for the words he had just heard, and then read: "Not only does he have amazing speed, but his breakthrough and passing ability are also eye-catching. In yesterday's game, there were many scenes where he single-handedly passed most of Hamburg's defense......"

Ribery was a little embarrassed to hear this, and he coughed twice to interrupt Yan Jing: "Boss, I don't speak German very well, I don't understand." ”

CoentrΓ£o on the side immediately interjected and dismantled the stage: "You can understand what Louis said?"

Ribery slapped CoentrΓ£o on the shoulder: "Fabio, what you say, I don't understand." ”

Ever since the "maid outfit incident", Ribery's relationship with Coentrand has skyrocketed, and you can hear their laughter and scolding both in the dressing room and on the training ground.

Yan Jing shook his head with a smile and returned the newspaper to the Frenchman: "Okay, okay, quickly change your clothes and get ready for training." ”

The start of the Bundesliga season is plentiful, with the first three rounds being played once a week, with a full 20 days between the third and fourth rounds. Of course, for Dortmund, they still have the Champions League group stage and the German Cup to play, but compared to the intensive schedule in the later stages, such a schedule is quite considerate.

Taking advantage of the time for the players to change clothes, Yan Jing took out a red marker, went to the wall of the fixture table, and wrote a big 4-0 in the first line of the result column against Hamburg.

Yan Jing had told the players before, the won games were filled in with a red pen, the losses were with a green pen, and the draws were with a black pen. When more than a third of the time they have black-green results in a month, they have to submit a 1,000-word summary and self-reflect on what happened during that month.

Of course, Yan Jing hopes that it will be best until the end of the season, and he has not read the summary of the players.

Last season was Yan Jing's first season as Borussia Dortmund manager and his first official professional manager, and he was unfamiliar with many things and still overlooked many details.

With a whole season's experience, Yan Jing has his own unique experience in controlling the team.

Don't underestimate every detail, whether the team can achieve the desired results in the end often depends on those few things that are easily overlooked.

From the beginning of the summer training camp, the players could feel Yan Jing's good intentions - their head coach was looking for ways to make them better, not only in terms of skills and tactics, but also in the team and the city.

Now, everyone in the team is quite familiar with all his teammates, and there is no problem that it is too difficult to communicate.

After last night's hearty victory, the whole city of Dortmund immediately accepted them, and the players who arrived by public transport this morning were met by a number of friendly congratulatory fans.

Overnight, they were already celebrities in the city.

Six days later, the second round of the Bundesliga is on the day and Borussia Dortmund are still playing at home, with Mainz taking on them in Westphalia.

It is a small team led by Jurgen Klopp who have maintained their record since promotion to the Bundesliga in 2004/05, and have managed to avoid relegation for the second year in a row despite a weak squad.

In the first round, Mainz lost 0-1 at home to Stuttgart. According to research by Yan Jing and his coaching staff, while their head coach Jurgen Klopp has a unique perspective on tactics, the Mainz players are not able to put their coach's tactical meaning on the pitch.

There is one thing that Yan Jing is a little concerned about, that is, until the day before the game, Nick, who had been doing intelligence gathering and tactical analysis for him last season, did not send a message.

Yan Jing sat in front of the computer and twisted the swivel chair to recall the last time he had a call with Nick, it was already last season, did that kid say that he was going to run a company......

It was lunchtime, Yan Jing simply took out his mobile phone and called Nick.

At first, the voice coming from the receiver indicated that the call was connected, but after a few seconds, a female voice prompted, "The call you dialed is temporarily unavailable." Apparently this was Nick hanging up on his own.

Could it be that he is still in class? Yan Jing guessed casually, and did not continue to call Nick, but continued with the work at hand, writing down the targeted arrangements for the First World War in Mainz.

About twenty minutes later, Nick called back.

"Yan, why did you call?"

Yan Jing tilted his head to clamp the phone, tapped the keyboard quickly with both hands, and said nonchalantly: "Let's see if you are still alive." ”

"I'm still alive and well, don't worry about you...... Oh! So you care about me! I'm so touched. ”

Yan Jing refused to admit it: "Your imagination is quite strong." Before class?"

"After class, you really don't care about me, I've been on leave for a long time since the end of last semester. ”

Didn't you say a moment ago that I cared about him? Yan Jing was speechless: "Then why did you go?"

"I'm running around for the establishment of my company, hey, let me tell you that I've been busy lately, and I hung up on your phone just now because I was talking to the bank about a loan. ”

Yan Jing paused and stopped typing: "How much start-up capital do you need?"

"One million euros. ”

"How much have you raised now?"

"Well, counting the loan that has just been negotiated, it's already 800,000 euros. ”

The voice on the other end of the phone was unusually calm when he told this amount of money, which was by no means a small number, and Yan Jing couldn't help but ask, "What kind of company do you want to open?" When you talked to me before, I really thought you were joking. ”

"The current plan is software development and application, for mobile and computer innovation, but in the future we will expand the market ......"

Yan Jing interrupted Nick's words: "Wait, where are you now?"

"Ah, I'm in Dortmund. ”

"Let's have dinner together in the evening, starting a company is not a trivial matter, it is not as easy as you say. ”

This time, instead of an elegant French restaurant, they dined in a small German restaurant near Nick's house.

Nick celebrated his eighteenth birthday in February and was officially promoted to adulthood, but most teenagers at this age are focused on their studies or personal hobbies, and it's rare for Nick to start a company.

Yan Jing arrived at the appointment spot ahead of time, and he looked out of the transparent floor-to-ceiling window to see a taxi parked in front of the restaurant.

The person who came out of the taxi was none other than Nick, who was dressed in a rather formal suit and carrying a briefcase this time, and looked like he had just finished solving the problem and had come to the appointment.

Nick walked into the restaurant, looked around and quickly found Yan Jing's location, and hurried over: "Good evening, Yan, I'm not late, am I?"

"No, sit down. Yan Jing raised his eyes and looked at Nick, his image was really different from his previous image.

Nick's soft blonde hair, which was originally fluffy and naturally drooping, was cut into a three-seven-point biased hairstyle by hairspray, and the light blonde hair clinged to the scalp. The whole suit is also very professionally dressed, and it looks no different from a business person, but the face is slightly tenderer.

Yan Jing felt a little uncomfortable when he remembered that the guy in front of him was wearing a dusty skull T-shirt at the end of last year, proudly showing off his press card in front of him.

This guy has changed so much that he almost can't recognize it.
