Chapter 43 Advantages

The next day, after Zhouyi training, he was a little surprised when he saw Shultze outside the training base: "It's you again?"

"Yes, I'm here again.¥f, so this time, can I be lucky enough to treat you to a meal, Zhou Yi?" Shulce said with a smile.

"This, I'm so embarrassed..." Zhou Yi refused with a puzzled look on his face.

"Okay, it's okay, it's okay. I wish you a game as soon as possible." Shurze took the initiative to extend his hand to Zhou Yi and shake hands with him.

After Zhou Yi said goodbye to Shulce this time, he took two steps and looked back at him, and found that Shulce was waving to him.

On the third day, Zhou Yi was no longer surprised when he met Shulce outside the training base. He even took the initiative to say hello to the other party: "Hello, Mr. Shulce."

"Hello, Zhou Yi. How was your training today? Is it going well?" Shulce asked him with a smile.

"Yeah. OK."

"Then congratulations on getting one step further from your goal of playing!" Shulzer clapped his hands.

"So as a celebration, Mr. Schultzer treats me to a meal?"

"Huh?" Shurtze did not react at all in the face of Zhou Yi's request.

"Ah, can't it be?"

"No, no!" Shulze, who came to his senses, waved his hand quickly. "No problem at all! What do you want to eat?"

"I know there is a small restaurant with not many people, but I go to it often."

"That's great, let's go!" Shultze said excitedly, and even pulled his feet away.

He took two steps before he realized that he had no idea which direction he was going, so he stopped and said to Zhou Yi with some embarrassment: "Sorry, I'm so excited..."

Zhou Yi waved his hand: "It's okay, Mr. Shulce. But have you been so full of fighting spirit all the time?"

"Of course." Speaking of this, Shultze straightened his chest, "This is my greatest advantage!"

Seeing Shurce's appearance, Zhou Yi also smiled.

Zhou Yi eventually brought Shultze to the small restaurant where he often came to eat with Cortana and Hannah.

After sitting down and ordering the meal, Shurtze finally confirmed that Zhou Yi really agreed to have dinner with him, so he dared to ask the questions in his heart at this time:

"Zhou Yi. I'm very curious. You simply rejected me two days ago, why do you take the initiative to have dinner with me today?"

"In our China, there is a saying of 'three visits to the cottage'. Mr. Shulce means that he only saw people after three visits. To show that the people who visited are sincere. So when I saw you the third time, I thought of this word. If you are so sincere, I feel embarrassed to refuse again. And... the person who cooks at my house today is not here, ha!"

Hearing Zhou Yi's explanation, Shurtze also laughed. What an interesting boy.

"So allow me to introduce myself to you and the agency sports_total, where I work." Schultzer said.

Zhou Yi nodded: "Okay, please."

Schultze began to say, "My name is Tino Schultze. It is affiliated with sports_total brokerage company. Sports_total brokerage company is a relatively young sports brokerage company. It was established in 2007, but it has developed very rapidly in the industry. Our company pays more attention to the discovery and training of young players than other brokerage companies, so our company has many young players. I said one you must be familiar with Mario Gotze, who is also a player under our company."

Zhou Yi showed an obvious expression.

"I won't tell you that our company is the most powerful agency in German football, but we are not. Among the most famous agency companies in Europe, we can't rank. But what I want to say is that our company really attaches great importance to young players. This is even the aspect that our company attaches most. I think choosing a strong agency may not be better than choosing the right one. Because most of the players under our company are young players, we are very clear about the needs of young players and know how to help young players improve."

"So I signed under your agency?" Zhou Yi asked.

"Uh. Yes, not. If you choose to sign a contract with me, then I will serve you. It's just that you are a player under our company because I am an agent under our company." Schulze explained.

"Oh, that's right..." Zhou Yi nodded and felt a sudden appearance.

Schultzer continued to introduce the situation of their company and introduced several famous brokers in the company, including Gotzer's agent Volk Struce and Reus's agent Dick Heber.

Finally, he talked about himself.

"As for myself, uh..." Shulce hesitated for a moment, and then said to Zhou Yi: "Actually, I also want to tell you which star players I have, so that I can look very powerful. But unfortunately, there is no, not one."

Shurtze spread his hands and said, "I just got the FIFA agent license and have just entered this industry. Before that, I was just a lawyer who likes football crazy. Of course, I am also an unknown person in the lawyer industry... I know it is difficult to let you hand over all your future hopes to a newcomer like me, and I can't find a better reason to convince you, but I still have to work hard. Because hard work is another advantage of me!"

Zhou Yi was amused by Shurce: "You have many advantages. Mr. Shurce. I am very grateful for your honesty towards me. Then I will tell you the agent frankly. I can't answer you right now. Even if I eat your meal, I will not agree to you easily. This meal is just to enhance our understanding of each other. But in the end, I may have to consider many factors. Sorry."

Shulzer waved his hand: "It's okay, I'm very happy that you are willing to say these words to me so honestly. I will try to convince you before you explicitly reject me, and I hope you don't bother me."

"Do you treat me to a meal every day?"

"It's not impossible!"

"Forget it." Zhou Yi waved his hand with a smile, "There is a saying in China that is 'Eat people's mouths, but use people'. If you eat too much, I'll feel soft-hearted."

"Your Chinese sayings are really interesting, ha!" Shurtze also smiled.

After the two of them finished the meal, they did not talk about work anymore, but chatted. For example, Shurtze was very interested in China, but never went there. So Zhou Yi taught him how to teach him what a modern China looks like.

After dinner, Schultz settled the bill, the two said goodbye.

"Tino, haven't you given up yet?" friend Selcan asked Schulze on the phone.

"I finally successfully invited him to have a meal today!" Schultz said excitedly.

"Hey. This is indeed good news. How are you talking about?"

"I introduced him in detail the company's situation..."

"So he agreed to you as his agent?"

“Uh…not yet…”

"It seems that Chinese boys are not stupid. You are wasting time, Tino. You have been in the company for half a year, but you haven't signed a player yet. If you continue like this, I'm very worried about your future in the company..."

"Ahem, I know, Okata. But isn't this a good start?"

"But it's meaningless, what do you plan to impress him? The agent pursues a player like pursuing a girlfriend. Either you have a lot of money and can make her fall under your money offensive. Either you are strong and make her feel safe. Or you are handsome and make her fall in love with you at a glance. If you are not rich, you are not strong, and you are not handsome, and if you are romantic, you can also attract some young girls. What are your advantages?"

"I have...I have sincerity and enthusiasm, and hard work!"

"Those are the most useless. Just like you chase a girl. You can't get anything but you only know how to say 'I love you very much, my dear. I love you the most in this world'. Do you think you can catch a girl like this?"

Schultze was speechless when Serkan asked, and could not answer at all.

"And the girls you pursue are still so excellent, there are no shortage of suitors... I can already foresee you being eliminated, Tino. Don't waste time on him. Start from the players of the small teams in the low-level league, slowly accumulate experience, and make progress with your feet on the ground, and you will succeed. If you can't forget the girl in your heart on that day, then pursue her again. At least at that time, you can straighten your chest and say your advantages, instead of expecting God to favor you now."

While Serkan was talking nonstop, the other end of the phone was silent. After saying that, Serkan thought the phone had been disconnected: "Hey, Tino? Are you still there?"

"I'm here, Otaka. Thank you for your reminder, but I still have to work hard. Zhou Yi is like my first love in my agent's career, you know. Everyone's first love is the most beautiful and hard to abandon..."

"Why are you so stubborn? All I tell you about is the experience of being a experienced person!" Serkan still couldn't convince Schultze, and was a little angry.

"I know, I know these are your heartfelt words and experiences, and I thank you too. But... stubbornness is also my advantage, Otaka."

"But your stubbornness will only cause trouble and trouble to the suitor!"

"If Zhou Yi thinks I'm annoyed and can directly reject me, I won't go to him again."

"You..." Selkan didn't know what to say, and finally just sighed, "Whatever you want."

The next day, Tino Schultzer was wearing a suit and a briefcase, standing among a group of fans wearing Dortmund jerseys and Dortmund baseball caps, waiting outside the training base together, looking very out of the way, and like an insurance salesman...

When the gate of the training base opened and the players drove out from inside, the fans were excited. They rushed up to find their target person to sign. If they were lucky, they could get a group photo.

But Shultze was not moved, but still stood there and looked into the training base.

As the stars left one by one, there were fewer and fewer fans around them.

Shultze finally saw the familiar figure walking out of the training base.

Some fans also met the figure after seeing it, asking him for autographs and asked him: "Witcher, will Barrios score a goal in the next round?"

While signing him, Zhou Yi said, "You have to ask him about this."

Next, someone went up to find Zhou Yi’s signature and asked him: “Witcher, can I pass the exam next week?”

Zhou Yi lowered his head and signed the famous saying, "As long as you prepare for the exam hard, you can pass!"

There are not many people who come to find Zhou Yi’s signature. Compared with other Dortmund players, Zhou Yi can be described as being deserted.

However, Zhou Yi didn't seem to care about these things. There were not many people, and there were other people who came with other purposes. He didn't care. He still signed the autograph for everyone very seriously and patiently answered their strange requests.

When he finished all the work, Shurze went up to meet him.

"Hi, Zhou Yi."

"Ah, Mr. Schultzer. Have you seen you today?"

"Of course, I'm going to bother you again. But if you think I'm annoyed, you can just reject me directly, there's no problem." Shulzer said.

"Okay, I won't be polite, Mr. Schultzer. But until now, I haven't found you annoyed."

"Haha! That's good. Are you going to have dinner together today?"

"Oh, no need today..."

"Is the person who cooks for you at home today?"

"Um……"

"Okay, then let me accompany you for a while. I will see you at the intersection in front, okay?"
