Dick got up early the next morning, in good spirits, and then, after washing up, he took a taxi to the headquarters in Dortmund without taking anyone with him.

Dick called Nepom before leaving, so when he arrived at the Dortmund club's location, in yesterday's conference room, Dick immediately met Dortmund's three largest management groups, Nepsom, Zolke and Mayer.

"Three, I thought about it all night last night and made a decision."

Dick smiled and said to Dortmund's three management groups: "I would like to be the manager of Dortmund, but I have other different opinions on the details. ”

After hearing that Dick agreed to coach Dortmund, the three of them looked at each other with joy, but Dick's next words surprised them a little.

"What's the problem with details? If we can negotiate, we will agree. Nebom replied.

Dick laughed slightly: "These details may be very big. ”

After saying this, Dick stood up: "In terms of my personal treatment, I can make a big concession, I only need a million euros for the basic salary, and in terms of bonuses, I don't ask for much, the German Cup, 500,000 euros, the Bundesliga champion, 1 million euros, the Champions Cup, 1.5 million euros, that is, even if I win the treble in a season, I can only get 4 million euros from Dortmund at most." ”

This sentence surprised the three of them a little, you must know that after winning the Champions Cup and the league last season, in addition to the base salary of 1.5 million, Dick got a total of 4.5 million euros in Atletico Madrid! In other words, last season he received 6 million euros from Atletico Madrid alone – and Atletico Madrid was willing to pay for it1

Now, he has taken the initiative to reduce his salary requirements, although this will be very beneficial to Dortmund, but Nepom they know that there is no such thing as a free lunch!

Dick, however, dropped the next bomb.

"As for the transfer fee, I don't want a penny from the club, I know that Dortmund can still come up with tens of millions of euros, but that money is a mortgage for the Westphala-Lun Stadium, and if this money is spent, it will be very detrimental to Dortmund's interests in the future. I'm going to do all the transfers, and I'm going to try to cut the team's wage bill, and I'm going to make up for the impact of the previous indiscriminate investment in terms of transfers, and I'm going to make sure the team can at least stay competitive...... How's that, folks, Dick is a great reward today! ”

“…… Di, we invite you not to cut the deficit, but to get more honor. ”

Nepom was silent for a moment, then said, "I'm glad you can think so, but if you can't win the championship, this is not what we want to see...... We don't need to linger, we want to win something while we can still support! ”

"That's right, Di, the financial problems are caused by the mistakes of our management, we can't let you take such responsibility, we just want the championship!" Zolke said.

"Ladies and gentlemen, I understand what you mean, but I have observed that if it is managed well, then it can still keep Dortmund from falling into an economic crisis." Dick smiled.

Nebom was stunned, he looked at Dick, and then said, "Di, do you know what needs to be done to get us through the economic crisis?" Last season we had a deficit of 30 million euros, and if we want to make up for the deficit and losses, we will have to make up for the deficit of 30 million euros and maintain a profit of at least 10 million euros every season so that we can get through it smoothly. In terms of revenue, we have now reached saturation ......"

Obviously, Nepom had calculated many times so that he could report a lot of data, but when it came to the last sentence, he froze, and then stared at Dick......

Since open source can't be done, then it is necessary to throttle, Dick can save 40 million for the team in terms of the team? Nepom doesn't believe in this, even if it can be saved, can the team's combat effectiveness be guaranteed?

Dick smiled and pulled out a cigar before lighting it: "I have some ideas that will allow Dortmund to avoid a possible economic crisis." But take risks. I need full command of the team and transfer authority. I'm not going to ask the club for a penny in terms of transfer fees, it's all about making adjustments to get the money to buy people, and at the same time cutting the club's wage bill...... It's a one-man job, but as long as I organize the team the way I want it, I'm confident that Dortmund will be competitive enough! And I'm going to try to get some honors, after all, these honors are related to my income. ”

As soon as Dick's words came out, the three managers of Dortmund were stupid, they thought that Dick's tone was too big, but they couldn't help but think - what a wonderful thing it would be if Dick's words really came true......

"If you can do that, I'll call the shots, so that you can control Dortmund!" Nebom said fiercely: "I now have 20 percent of Dortmund's shares, and if you can do this, I am willing to give you 10 percent!" ”

Zorke and Mayer were stunned for a moment, but they didn't say anything, because they knew that if Dick could do this, giving him ten percent of the shares, it would be nothing, and Dortmund's stock price was very low now.

"No, I don't want to control, and I'm not a saint, I won't do day work."

Dick exhaled a puff of smoke and then said leisurely, "To tell you the truth, what I want is very simple, and that is money!" I gave in on the salary, and I was able to solve the transfer fee myself, and in the same way, as a reward for my work, I would take a 50% share of the annual profit in the transfer market! This may seem like a lot, but you don't lose money at all, you know, if it weren't for my operation, you wouldn't have been able to make a profit in the transfer market. In the same way, if the salary expenses I save by running the team can make the team profitable, then I will also have a 10% share of the profits! ”

Dick's mouth was a little wide.

Fifty percent of the profit in the transfer market, which is a huge number, you must know that Dortmund is worth a lot of players now, if Dick sells a large number of players regardless of the results, he may be able to sell at least fifty or sixty million euros in cash, which fills Dick's purse, but makes Dortmund even weaker.

So after hearing Dick's words, the Dortmund triumvirate shook their heads at the same time: "I'm sorry, we can't agree to such a request!" ”

At that moment, Nepham, Zolke, and Mayer almost began to believe the dirty water that little Hill had poured on Dick, because Dick seemed to be very insatiable in his face now......

Dick's next words, however, dispelled their thoughts.

"Of course, I have to get this share, and there is a condition, that is, within two years, I will win at least one league title – at least. In other words, I will only get this share if I cut my salary bill, sell players to recover funds, try to help Dortmund FC cover the deficit and win at least one league title. You know, it's very difficult to keep Dortmund competitive in such a situation, and I dare say that there is no coach in the whole world who can do that except me! And it's not without precedent for me to do this, from a business point of view, it's a bet! It's my bet with Borussia Dortmund! ”

"If I win, then I made a lot of money from Dortmund, but Dortmund also got a lot from me! If you lose, you don't have anything to lose, after all, my basic salary is only one million euros, and at least in this way, you can alleviate the economic crisis very well...... What do you think? I'm a person who likes to win both sides rather than take the benefits on my own. ”

Nepom fell into deep thought, as a doctor of economics, he naturally understands the meaning of betting, and also knows very well that if such an agreement is signed, it will be quite beneficial to Dortmund - if Dick wins the bet, then then Borussia will be able to win at least one league championship at the same time, and at the same time, the economic crisis will not appear again, even if the bet is lost, Dortmund will actually lose nothing, because if other managers are changed, it is impossible to save Dortmund, and it is a big deal that it cannot be saved in the end!

What is that?

Another point is that, as an adventurous chairman, Nepom also appreciates Dick's approach - Dick's strong self-confidence makes him feel that he should believe Dick, especially when there is actually nothing to lose for Dortmund.

"You don't pay a transfer fee, you control it, you cut salaries and you still keep the team competitive, in which case you can get 50 percent of the transfer market surplus and 10 percent of the club's profit? Is that so? Nebom quickly understood the meaning of Dick's words, and then asked cautiously.

"Yes, that's it. You may not believe me, but I will prove to you that I, Dick, am not a manager who only spends money to smash championships, but a manager who can win championships in any situation! Dick said confidently.

"Then it's decided!"

Nebom was also a very decisive figure, he slapped the table hard, and then said loudly: "I signed such an agreement with you!" I sincerely hope that you will win, because then we will be able to get out of the economic crisis and continue to win honors! What if you lose? We can't find any other way anyway! ”

After Nebom said this, Zolke and Mayer, who originally wanted to say something, closed their mouths - the current situation is indeed like this, if Dick can win, the whole Dortmund will come back to life, if Dick doesn't win, Dortmund will die anyway, rather than die like this, it is better to fight!

"I will tell you with my actions that this is a wise choice!" Dick stood up, and then patted his clothes: "Since an agreement has been reached, then sign the contract as soon as possible, I will have a lot of things to do next, let's not waste time, time is very critical now!" ”
