Chapter 539: Strong Friendship
Frederick had a great day.
When he woke up in the morning, the whole world was praising him, and then he went through hardships, he got praise from his wife, he got 'respect' from the players at the club, and he asked for a raise a little out of line, and Mr. Vice President said he would consider it.
This is the rhythm of reaching the pinnacle of life!
Frederick went home happy, and today his wife had prepared a rare dinner, and there were a lot of nutritious things added to the food.
Frederick didn't like it a little, because that kind of thing always tasted weird, but if you want to succeed, you have to go through the ordeal, he still endured the nausea and ate a few bites, and after the meal, he cared about the child's homework, and was in the mood to ask if the child was interested in playing football.
Although children are girls, women's football can also develop!
Her dad is a well-known football coach in England, and it must be a simple and easy job to train a women's football star.
After that, Frederick and his wife talked about asking for a raise today.
Mattelo was a little surprised when he heard this, because her husband has earned a lot, and he can catch up with a little famous star, which is more than the average second-tier head coach, this kind of salary level is already the top among assistant coaches, and only the veteran assistant coach of the giant team can be compared, and the assistant coach is fully qualified to come out as the head coach himself, and he can also lead the team to play good results, and the husband has reached this level?
Mattelo looked at Frederick carefully, looking up and down, it didn't look like it, she couldn't know her husband better after living together for so many years.
The husband did a good job in Millwall, but the ability and qualifications are also boiled out, and he can have this gorgeous salary, not only ability, but also qualifications are also very important aspects, he is Millwall's old qualified coach, and his age is not too big in the coaching industry, but because he has been working, his salary has been increasing.
Two years ago, when her husband had the opportunity to be the head coach of Millwall, Matlot was not very optimistic, because he knew that his husband was very unassertive, he would panic when something happened, and it was impossible to cope with the pressure of working at the manager level.
It's the same now.
The husband is more suitable to be an assistant coach, and there will be no pressure to lead the team in training and the like.
After learning that her husband did not succeed in becoming the head coach, Matro also breathed a long breath and felt a lot more relaxed, because the assistant coach's job is relatively stable, and if he becomes the head coach, he may be fired if he does not do well, and it will be difficult to find the same job again.
As Millwall's grades improved, her husband's salary increased, earning enough money for the family to spend as they pleased, travel abroad during the holidays, send their children to private schools, save money to buy a small three-story house in a very good location, and so on.
Her husband's high income has made her life much better, and Matro is not carried away, she knows her husband too well, and she knows that her husband gets this salary, which is definitely beyond his ability.
So why did he ask for a raise again?
Mattelo immediately expressed his doubts, "Can you still get a raise?" ”
"Of course, I don't look at how famous I am now!" Frederick looked like a bull C.
Mattlo rolled his eyes, because he didn't understand the specifics, and he didn't say anything, "It's okay if the club agrees, if you don't agree, you just keep working, don't ask for anything, I don't want you to lose your job." ”
Frederick is quite confident, "Now it's the club that wants to keep me!" ”
————
Maybe it was the food that day, Frederick had another big fight, and the next morning he felt a little weak, but he still insisted on getting up early to go to the club.
On the road, Frederick was recognized by the fans, a bald man with tendons and flesh, walked up to Frederick, pointed at him and said, "I know you!" Frederick! I heard that you are better than Zhang Yang? Was the team the first contributor to the Treble? ”
Frederick was a little confused.
The strong man in front of him was praising himself, but his fierce expression was not friendly at all.
Really!
He heard the white man pointing at him, looking at the others around him, and laughing, "That's it!" This Humpty Dumpty? It's even more than the publicity, I think this is the funniest thing this year! It's a pity that today is not April Fool's Day! ”
Many people around laughed.
Before the white strong man finished speaking, he stared at Frederick and touched his collar, as if to pull his clothes, Frederick immediately retreated, his center of gravity was unstable and he almost fell to the ground, causing another round of laughter, and the white strong man said viciously, "Tell you!" Millwall, it's a flamboyant team! Publicity is the greatest credit! Only flamboyance can lead Millwall to success! If you have any ideas to replace Zhang Yang, I advise you to be careful, even if you really have the ability, we don't need it! ”
Frederick left in a hurry, feeling like he had met a football hooligan, and he didn't remember what the other party said at all.
But many people along the way, all of whom helped Frederick to recall, that they did not threaten viciously like a strong white man, but the eyes that looked at him were not friendly, and many of them whispered loudly, as if they were afraid that he would not hear--
"See? That stupid pig is Frederick! ”
"I remember that a long time ago, he competed with Zhang Yang for the head coach, but looking at his appearance, he was short and fat! Who will support him? ”
"Millwall won the treble and he stepped up to take the credit!"
"This guy is really thick-skinned, and he thinks that his credit is greater than that of publicity! It's ridiculous! ”
"I think he should get out of the club!"
“……”
Frederick listened to these words, and hated it, his car had been used by his wife recently, and he had not been willing to buy a second one, he felt that he should buy better, but before he could make up his mind, he took the bus to the club.
He vowed to buy a new car right away.
If you drive to the club yourself, you won't have this problem.
Frederick still thought, "What are you talking about! I'm about to get a raise! ”
Frederick hadn't yet realized what the fan disdain meant, but when he arrived at the club, he immediately realized because Ebenezer came to him, "I heard you're leaving? ”
"Leave? It's not ......"
Frederick's mind was a little confused.
"I've heard, it seems like a club has asked you to be the head coach?" Ebenezer looked unoptimistic, "I don't think you're suitable to be the head coach, it's better to stay and continue as an assistant coach, we have known each other for a long time and worked together for a long time. I won't say a word if the others leave, but I feel compelled to talk to you. ”
Frederick was still a little confused, he didn't understand why Ebenezer said this, didn't he want a raise? How did it become left?
"I'm not leaving!" Frederick affirmed.
Ebenezer was a little surprised, "But I heard that it was Wilkinson who said that you asked for a salary increase with a tough attitude, so you just want to leave?" When you told me yesterday, I didn't pay much attention to it, but I think you should know that you can't get a raise, but you still asked for it. This should be considered a latent rule, if you want to leave, you will ask for a raise, you know, the club will not give you another raise, unless the team wins another treble. ”
Frederick has no chance of a raise.
Frederick's strength lies in his good foundation, he holds a UEFA A-level coaching certificate and is a 'registered' head coach of the club.
This is one of the reasons why Frederick is well paid.
Aldous was an assistant coach in management, in charge of the youth team, but also as an assistant coach of the first team, and his work was much busier than Frederick's, with only half a month's vacation in July, and usually half less than Frederick's.
With such a busy work situation, Aldous earns less than 200,000 pounds a year.
Excluding bonuses, Frederick's annual salary is £300,000, an assistant coach of this calibre, which is already a first-class standard, and also meets Millwall's current 'salary cap'.
Millwall doesn't have a 'salary cap', but that's the case at clubs, and the salary of a signed assistant coach can't be higher.
Frederick signed with Millwall.
This kind of signing has an advantage, that is, to enjoy the treatment of 'long-term employees', the club cannot innocently dismiss Frederick, otherwise the workers' association will intervene, he is equivalent to a 'system' employee, the work is very stable, as long as there are no big mistakes, you can continue to work, you can imagine how high Frederick's annual salary of 300,000 yuan, how high the gold content is.
Frederick wants to raise his salary in two ways, one is to hug Zhang Yang's thighs and become Zhang Yang's personal assistant coach, the club will link his contract to Zhang Yang's contract, and the salary can probably be doubled, and even Zhang Yang can ask the club to give him a higher salary, with an annual salary of one million pounds, there is also a chance, but the shortcomings are also obvious, he will no longer enjoy the 'system-system' treatment.
If Zhang Yang leaves, he will leave with him, and his job will definitely no longer be stable.
Another way is to be reused, such as Zhang Yang to make him the first assistant coach, replacing the new Pierce, but also to lead the team in training.
This method, to some extent, is equivalent to the club and Zhang Yang fighting for control of the team, because Zhang Yang is the head coach, he should be given the right to choose the first assistant, even if Frederick is selected as the 'first assistant coach', it is impossible to get the club's salary increase, which is almost equivalent to saying 'Frederick is ready to take over the position of coach'.
In terms of the importance of publicity, the club can't do that.
Frederick heard Ebenezer's statement, thought for a while before coming back to his senses, not that he had no 'workplace experience', but that he was carried away by all kinds of praise, he hadn't thought about it so much before, and when he thought about it carefully, he suddenly broke out in a cold sweat, and he realized that he had made a huge mistake.
Leave?
Are you kidding!
Not to mention that there is no club to invite him, even if there is an invitation from the team, he does not plan to leave Millwall, with the same salary, how good it is to be an assistant coach.
Even if Zhang Yang leaves, he can continue to stay.
Frederick realised the seriousness of the problem and was in no mood to go to the first-team training ground and immediately went to the chairman's office.
"Mr. Wilkinson, I have no intention of leaving!"
"No club invited me! I'm going to stay in the team! ”
“……”
In the chairman's office, Frederick kept explaining that he didn't want to leave, Wilkinson didn't understand a little, he said with a little headache, "You go to Zhang Yang, I told him yesterday, maybe he is ready to let you carry out the work handover, if you want to stay, you must Zhang Yang agree." ”
Frederick immediately went to Zhang Yang.
When he was halfway through the road, Frederick came back to his senses, he felt that he and Zhang Yang were 'not compatible', if it was him, he would definitely be bent on driving him away if he had such a good opportunity, so what about Zhang Yang?
People's hearts are weird, so I have to guard against it!
Frederick first went to the first-team training ground, briefly arranged the next morning's training, and told Boehly to help keep an eye on the point, and then immediately went to the city center and bought a watch from a luxury store.
Frederick took the gift and quickly went to the head coach's office, and when he stood at the door, he heard the inside say, "From the afternoon, you go to the training ground, I will let Boehly be with you, he knows a lot about training, to be honest, the coach has changed, it still has a great impact on the work, you are not very familiar with the team, but our tactical training is about to start, and it will be ...... then"
When Frederick heard this, he couldn't listen anymore and immediately pushed the door and rushed in, shouting, "Zhang! Sheet! I'm not leaving! I didn't want to leave! ”
In the room were Zhang Yang and Pierce, both of whom had expressions of surprise on their faces.
Zhang Yang had already heard Wilkinson say that Frederick was going to stay, and he was relieved about it, and was telling Pierce about training.
Pierce is a new coach, he is not familiar with the Millwall players, he will definitely need to get used to it for a while, get to know each player, and because the tactical training of Millwall only exists on paper, he has not been able to get straight into the job.
Zhang Yangzheng said this, but he didn't expect a short and fat man to rush out.
"What's going on?"
Frederick was sweating profusely and said nervously, "I'm not leaving!" Didn't leave! Zhang, you can't do this! I'm the coach of the club! I'm in charge of training for the first team! I'll be in charge of training in the future! ”
"I see."
Zhang Yang pulled the corners of his mouth a little helplessly.
Frederick felt that Zhang Yang didn't listen, and hurriedly continued to explain, "I really didn't want to leave!" I didn't ask for a raise just because I wanted to leave! I was deceived by those damn media! ”
"I am the most loyal employee of the club! I haven't done anything wrong in the last few years and the club can't ask me to leave! Indeed, the parents of young players sent me gifts to get their children on the junior team, and I hesitated, but eventually retreated......"
"Last season, a reporter wanted to come into the club and gave me 500 euros, but I only let him go around the periphery of the club and didn't come to the first team, and I finally gave the money back!"
“……!!”
"I didn't do anything wrong and there was no reason for the club to fire me! No reason! I'm going to keep staying, the first team still needs me! I'm going to lead the team in training! No one wants to take my place! ”
Frederick said a lot of things, Zhang Yang and Pierce were dumbfounded, and they both looked at each other and felt funny, and finally saw Humpty Dumpty's excited appearance, but he still couldn't help laughing.
Zhang Yang coughed lightly twice, patted Frederick on the back, and interrupted his narration, "Don't get excited! Take it easy! The club didn't want to expel you! You'll stay. ”
"No! I can't go! I have to stay! Frederick was very excited, and after shouting, he realized what Zhang Yang said, and he immediately said excitedly, "Is it true?" The club told me to stay, and you let me stay? ”
"Of course, you're doing a good job, and I don't think there's a reason for you to leave. The team needs you a lot. Zhang Yang comforted Frederick.
Frederick exhaled a few long breaths, calmed down some of his excitement, and looked at Zhang Yang almost burst into tears, "Thank you so much!" I thought I was leaving! Sorry, I was so excited! Thank you! I'm going crazy with fear! Humpty Dumpty said with a handful of snot and tears, looking at Zhang Yang as if he was looking at a life-saving benefactor.
Zhang Yang was very uncomfortable with such Frederick, especially when the other party was excited, he always leaned towards him.
Soon Pierce joined the persuasion.
Under continuous persuasion, Frederick finally believed that he would continue to stay at the club, and after seeing his emotions calm down, Zhang Yang also hurriedly asked him to go to the first team, "Today's training still has to be done normally, this is your job." ”
"Yes, my job!"
Frederick said in high spirits that he didn't have any time and was more enthusiastic about his work than he was now.
Before leaving the door, Frederick stopped, he hesitantly turned his head, took out the beautifully packaged gift box from his backpack, as if he had made a major decision in his life, he gritted his teeth and walked back, and put the gift box on the flamboyant desk.
"This is for you!"
Frederick said 'send', but he looked vicious, like sending a timed bomb, and when he left, his face was full of pain, and he couldn't disguise it if he wanted to.
Zhang Yang was a little confused, looking at the gift box on the table a little hesitant, he felt that Humpty Dumpty had no burden to use bombs to assassinate himself, so he carefully opened the gift box and found that it contained a delicate watch.
The watch is quite exquisite.
The diamond-encrusted bezel and hands, the gold and silver straps, the rather small and graceful carvings, etc., together become a fine work of art, not just a watch.
"Show me."
Pierce took it and immediately recognized the name of the international luxury brand in the center of the watch, and he was surprised, "That guy is so generous!" ”
"How much is it worth?" Zhang Yang has no research on watches at all.
"Why do you want 10,000 pounds!" Pierce's words were very affirmative.
Zhang Yang suddenly came to his senses, took the watch and admired it carefully, and finally looked at Pierce a little hesitantly, and secretly scolded Frederick in his heart that he couldn't do things, how could he give gifts in front of others, otherwise he wouldn't hesitate to put it away at all, what should he do now?
Pierce is still very good at being a person.
The next conversation between the two was that Pierce persuaded Zhang Yang to stay, Zhang Yang shirked in every possible way, and raised the matter to the level of 'the head coach can't accept gifts from assistant coaches', Pierce said that it was a 'gift from a friend', it didn't matter at all, Zhang Yang continued to shirk, several times in a row, and finally Zhang Yang 'helpless' stayed, and said, "Give it back to him when you have time." ”
Zhang Yang thought, 'Can time be delayed', and when he brought enough, he said, with the watch given by Frederick, doesn't it show the strong friendship between the two?
Yes, that's it!
