Again and Thomas Dassler, is in the café next to Freiburg Cathedral.

Tables and chairs occupy a corner of the square, next to the flower market in the church square market, rows and clusters of blooming flowers, I really don't know how many flowers have been collected from there in the somewhat cold November, sitting here, my nose and eyes are already drunk. Not far from the foot is a cheerful flowing artificial canal, with the morning sun, which makes people a little lazy.

Sunset, however, doesn't feel sleepy, and Thomas Dassler's statement strikes him as fresh and unique.

“… The era no longer needs the traditional football agent, the capitalization of football and the increase in player income have made the all-encompassing, everything to do by the football agent outdated, we can let the accountant deal with the financial issues, let the lawyer deal with the legal issues, in short, let the professional people do the professional things.

Agents need to act as an asset management company to represent the rights and interests of players, hand over all the things that professionals can do well, focus on managing the future of players, and bring more income to players. ”

Thomas sat across from Sunset and talked, his excitement reflected in the sunlight.

But this is not the focus of Sunset's attention, not that he is indifferent to fame and fortune, but that he feels that the annual salary of 400,000 euros given by Freiburg is enough, even if it costs more than half of the taxes and social insurance, the income of close to 200,000 euros is enough to meet Sunset's imagination, and far higher than his living needs. After leaving Jiangong, he received nearly 100,000 euros in season bonuses and wages, so at this time, he was far more concerned about football than about income.

Darsler was clearly aware of Sunset's thoughts, and was ready to continue:

"I understand what you're thinking, and in fact I think so, because the foundation of our partnership is football. The most important thing now is for you to tap and show your potential, and the core of my current work is also to help you play football well, and business development and promotion are all things in the future. ”

With that, Dashler took a sip of his coffee and secretly looked at Sunset to see that he was waiting intently for the next step, knowing that his persuasion was more than half successful, and his heart relaxed.

As a Dassler, this famous surname not only gave him a prosperous life, but also gave him a lot of pressure. Thomas Dassler was used to seeing his siblings, no matter how hard they tried, people would always say, 'Oh, it's no wonder that the last name is Dassler...'. He didn't want to be evaluated like this, so he studied football hard since he was a child, and wanted to use the success on the field to prove that he could be good without the help of his surname.

But a car accident took away nearly 10 years of his hard work, and then he gave up on himself, and then he thought that he couldn't become a star, but he could participate in shaping a star, so he chose the football agent industry.

But after all, his surname is Darsler.

If you represent a player from Germany or even South America, even if you succeed in the end, you still can't get rid of people's doubts about your excellence.

It wasn't until Sven Mislintart talked about Sunset that he was a Chinese player with the potential to succeed that Thomas realized his chance had come.

Thomas, who has been to China, knows how Chinese people complain and despise their football, but Dassler, who comes from a good business family, knows what a great power it can be if this kind of love-hate relationship can find a cathartic point.

As for Sunset's level of football, Sven's vision is still very credible. And Thomas believes that the Chinese do not require a Golden Ball player, as long as an ordinary star who is passable and reliable is enough to detonate their emotions. As long as Sven's vision doesn't go wrong and Sunset doesn't do it himself, Thomas feels that he can succeed.

Now that he only has to convince Sunset to contract him with his agent, Thomas feels that he has succeeded for the most part, so he comes up with his carefully prepared statement:

"In fact, I think I am the most suitable agent for you, the details, I have said, you can find a professional to solve, the network problem, it is nothing more than a few phone calls, I can find the decision-making candidate for any club in the world. In fact, what you're missing most right now is a consultant to help you plan how to get into the team. Give you reasonable advice, help you understand the ideas of various aspects and interpret them correctly, and then find a solution. ”

These words touched the afterglow who had been silently listening to Thomas's eloquent talk, and Thomas began his final speech.

'I've played and I know what young people in Germany think and how to deal with coaches, that's what you need most right now, right? If you get the affection of your teammates and coaches from the start, you'll definitely get used to it with half the effort, right? Well, that's all I'm going to say, it's up to you to decide whether to choose me, or choose a more old-school broker. ”

Sunset has already made up her mind, and says with a smile:

"No, I think you'll have to say more... Like your commission or something. ”

Thomas frozes for a moment, then laughs as well, reaching out to shake Sunset's hand.

Thomas's focus was also not on income, so the two quickly reached an agreement with an agent. Sunset's salary is 8% of Thomas's commission, and 10% of his future business development income will go to Thomas. There is also a special clause that both parties have the right to terminate the contract without giving any reason with half a year's notice, making the contract more like a gentleman's contract.

After spending a short time solving this problem, Thomas immediately stepped into the role and started the image planning for Sunset.

"First of all, don't think too much of your team-mates, including the club staff, who are just ordinary staff other than they are relatively good at football. You can't expect them to understand the cultural differences, you can't expect them to understand and respect you, give you too much time to adapt and grind, and before you prove yourself in football, you'd better impress them with an image that their simple mind can understand, it will help your football. ”

"How? You have to put away the modesty and politeness that the Chinese are accustomed to, and be sharper. You are a player recommended by Sven, spent money by the club and approved by Streich, which proves that you have what it takes to establish yourself in Freiburg. You can't be satisfied that you know it, you have to say it openly, and you have to dare to demand where you deserve and when you play. You're just a talented 16-year-old young man, even if you express yourself a little bit, but if you don't even dare to say it, it's impossible to expect others to be polite to you like a Chinese, this is professional football, they won't even be humble to their teammates, let alone a Chinese..."

"Another point, if you don't dare to express it, they will feel like ordinary Germans, thinking that you are as dull as ordinary Chinese, rather than modest and polite as Chinese understand, which is not a good first impression..."

After a somewhat verbose reminder, Sunset senses that she may have been lucky enough to make the right choice. And Thomas didn't just talk about it, he also had a solution after asking the problem, and took care of it with Sunset, including changing his bland hairstyle to a Beckham-style Mohican hairstyle, so that Sunset's soft Asian face line looked sharper against the hairstyle.

"Be personal, be a little more indifferent, and make your teammates feel that you are the same kind of person in the first place, so that they will be more receptive to you. I think you are the same in China, but the way of expression is different, and I am good at these, and you have made a good choice..."

In addition to the explanation, Thomas did not forget to praise himself.

But Sunset admits that he has a point.
