Chapter 216: An Agent

After Zhou Yimu saw Bruno and his granddaughter leave, he also planned to go home. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info

But at this time, a person suddenly came up next to him.

"Hello ......"

At the same time, he handed over a piece of paper.

Zhou Yi saw someone handing something over, and reflexively took it, and at the same time he took out a pen. When I took it, I found out that it was a business card, and most fans asked the players to sign autographs, such as star cards, posters and jerseys, and there was rarely any mess, because that would be considered disrespectful to the players.

But Zhou Yi doesn't care about this, as a nobody who hasn't played in the first team until now, he is very happy to have someone ask him for an autograph, instead of asking him for empowerment.

So he flipped the business card to the back and wrote his name on it very skillfully.

Then he handed it back.

The person who handed over the business card didn't pick it up, but was stunned, because he didn't expect Zhou Yi to sign the business card he handed him...... But he's not here to ask for autographs!

Zhou Yi raised his head and found that the person opposite was surprised.

"What's wrong?" Zhou Yi asked strangely the young man in front of him who looked like a white-collar worker in a suit and tie.

"Uh, no......" The other party hurriedly took the business card handed over by Zhou Yi, but at the same time took out a new business card and handed it to Zhou Yi again.

"Do you want to sign it?" Zhou Yi felt strange, and what was wrong with this person? Why did he sign such a small business card? Fortunately, his name only had two words, if it was such a strange name as "Orleans Grilled Sturgeon Castle", then how could this business card be signed?

"No, no. The visitor pointed to the text on the front of the business card and said to Zhou Yi, "Actually, I am an agent......

Zhou Yi took the business card and looked at it himself, it was really true.

It reads "sports_total company agent Tino Schulze".

"That's right, I heard that you don't have an agent yet, so I would like to recommend me and our company to you. Schulze lobbied Zhou Yi on the road.

Zhou Yi really hasn't thought about the problem of the agent for a while, he is now full of hard training, and then get the opportunity to play as soon as possible, as for the agent...... It was as if he was still far away.

But when Schulze stood in front of him, he realized that as a professional player, he really didn't seem to be in need of an agent.

His first professional contract with Dortmund was signed by himself, without negotiation or any proposal for amendments, and he scanned it and signed it. At the time, I didn't think it was so exciting to become a professional footballer, but now that I think about it, I think it's really unprofessional......

But now I have to let him think about the problem of the agent immediately, Zhou Yi feels that it is not necessary, anyway, the contract has been signed, and the most important thing is to play.

So he waved his hand at Schulzer: "Sorry, I do need an agent. But I still have to go home for dinner......"

"How about I invite you to dinner?" Before Zhou Yi finished speaking, the other party said very enthusiastically.

Zhou Yi was a little unacceptable by such enthusiastic Germans, he has been in Germany for so long, he found that unless it is someone who has known him for a while, if it is a stranger, the Germans will not be so enthusiastic about you, although they are very polite, but that politeness is like a layer of glass.

A German like this who has only met once, who has only met for less than five minutes, and who immediately offers to invite you to dinner...... Zhou Yi had only met one before this, Mark Wagner.

"Uh...... No need. Zhou Yi leaned back, for fear that the other party would eat him, and waved his hand. "I already have someone at home who cooks ......"

After he finished saying this excuse, he felt that this excuse was really clumsy! Lao Tzu is single, where is the person who has prepared a steaming and fragrant meal at home and waited for him? Not in China!

However, as soon as Schulze heard Zhou Yi say this, he suddenly didn't know how to continue to persuade him, could he say, "Don't worry about the people at home, go out to eat with me"?

That's a bit rude......

Zhou Yi saw that Shultze was silent, so he waved his hand to say goodbye to him.

But after only two steps, Schulze caught up again.

"This ...... Can you leave me your number? I'll be able to contact you......"

"Sorry, I'm not used to giving random phone numbers. Zhou Yi rejected the other party and raised the business card in his hand. "Anyway, I have your phone number here, and I'll contact you if I need to. ”

With that, he turned and ran away.

Schulze looked at the back of Zhou Yi leaving, and finally didn't catch up again this time.

"Hey, Tino, how was your harvest today?" Schulze asked as he was drinking in the bar when a middle-aged man in a suit sat next to him, patted him on the shoulder, and then asked the waiter for a beer.

"Not bad, Okata. Schulze raised his glass to him, "I managed to give away a business card!"

Otaka Serkan, who was sitting next to him, covered his face: "I'm really convinced, Dino. It takes you a day to send out a business card...... Is that 'not bad'?"

"But compared to not being able to give away even a business card a day, being able to give away a business card is really 'not bad'. Schulze said seriously.

Serkan was speechless: "So you asked me to come out to celebrate with you to celebrate your success in sending out a business card?"

Schulzer scratched his head and smiled.

"Okay, so which unlucky guy took your card?" asked as Serkan took a sip of the beer he had asked for had already been brought to him by the waiter.

"Borussia Dortmund's Zhouyi. A Chinese player ......"

Before Schulze could finish his introduction, Serkan had already blurted out, "Wizard." ”

"You know his nickname too?" Schulze was delighted.

"Who doesn't know, this young player is best known for this nickname, or maybe his name is not as famous as this nickname. He doesn't seem to have played in the first team at Borussia Dortmund, right?"

"Well, not yet. Schulze nodded.

"Also, if he had all played in the first team, he probably wouldn't have asked for your nobody's business card, ha!" Serkan teased his colleague and friend.

"That's why I'm hurrying!" Schulzer said, clenching his fists and fighting spiritedly. "Try to sign him before he comes out and becomes famous!"

"It's not easy, although I haven't played yet, but when I was in the youth team, I was a key player in the youth team with Gotze. There is potential, otherwise Klopp would not have transferred him and Gotze to the first team...... "Serkan is worthy of being an agent several ranks higher than Schulze, a rookie, even if he is not in charge of the Ruhr area, but he still knows the player information of the team here, and said that Zhou Yi is such a strange player, and the intelligence can come as soon as he opens his mouth."

"And, most importantly, he's a Chinese player. Do you know what that means?

"The Chinese market is vast and has great potential. "Schulze is not stupid either.

"Yes, unless this kid can't prove himself in the first team, but if he can prove himself, then the other agents will flock to him like sharks that smell blood, and there must be no shortage of famous agents, what will you compete with people when the time comes?"

"That's why I said I want to sign him as soon as possible. ”

"How are you going to convince him?"

"With my sincerity and enthusiasm!"

"So there's nothing you can do?"

"Alas......" Schulzer also frowned and sighed. Indeed, as an agent who has just debuted, he has no successful cases to prove his ability to Zhou Yi.

Seeing his friend crying like this, Serkan advised, "Actually, I've always advised you not to set your goals so high as soon as you come up. You should go to the second division to develop, relying on the advantages of our company, you may still have a play. I know you want to learn from Mr. Strus's door-to-door visits to promising young players, but you have to think about the gap between you and Mr. Strus, who was already a successful agent before that. You've just gotten your FIFA agent license. It's good for you to be down-to-earth. ”

Schulze was silent after listening to Serkan's words.

He is an agent in the hope that he can become a man like Mendes, going in and out of the office of the chairman of a giant, the private residence of the world's top players, and even being able to influence the predators of European football.

But now it seems that the ideal is very plump, but the reality is very skinny.

"Zhou Yi is also a player in the first team of Dortmund no matter how you say it, these years, young people with a little potential have been almost divided, although Zhou Yi has not yet, but it is also soon. The reason why no one has made a move against him yet is probably because he has not played in the first team yet, so everyone has to watch and observe. You want to play this time difference, but the player himself may not be willing to put his future in the hands of an inexperienced newcomer like you. Seeing that Schulze was silent, Serkan decided to strike while the iron was hot.

After Serkan finished speaking, Schulze picked up his glass and poured the remaining beer into his throat in one gulp, some of which spilled out of his mouth and ran down the corners of his mouth.

After drinking, Schulze slammed his glass on the bar, attracting the attention of everyone around him.

"Good!" Schulze said.

"You've decided to go to the lower leagues?" asked Selkane.

"No!"

Schulze's answer surprised Serkan: "Then what are you doing!"

"I mean, I'm going to do my best to sign Zhou Yi!"

"Did I say it all before? Why don't you understand, Tino?"

"I know, Okata, I know your kindness. But...... Zhou Yi was the only one who took my business card and accepted it without throwing it away, and I was really unwilling to give up like that. I want to work harder, and if I try my best and fail, then I have nothing to say, at least I can leave without regrets. ”

Schulzer blushed and said to Serkan, I don't know if he drank too much wine just now, and it was a little upset.

Looking at such a friend, Sercan shook his head, "And what else can I say? All I can say is good luck, Tino." ”

"Thank you, Okata, I really need good luck!"
