From country team to giant

Chapter 3

At the invitation of Jurgen Bauer, Zhang Xian visited the sports director's office.

Yes, his title is sports director.

This is also the highest position in the current management of the Meteor team.

The director's office is clean, or rather empty.

There are not many furnishings in the office, the Meteor team's home jersey and the rough team logo are hung on the bare walls.

There is a desk by the window, and there are a few chairs in front of the desk, which can be regarded as a meeting place.

Jurgen Bauer graciously introduced the team to Zhang Xian, and offered to pour him a cup of coffee.

Zhang Xian didn't have any dissatisfaction with the crude environment, he could only say that he was already mentally prepared for all of this.

Jurgen Bauer wanted to take Zhang Xian out to visit the home court, but Zhang Xian refused.

"Mr. Chairman, can we now talk about the future of the team?"

Jurgen Bauer's eyes lit up, this was the link he was most looking forward to.

He was particularly looking forward to what kind of answer he would get from this 'professional'.

The three sat together, yes, Mary didn't leave.

Zhang Xian didn't care about her, but talked eloquently; "First, I searched for some information on the Internet, but the information is limited, and I can't even find the schedule of the seventh-level league, so I can only rely on some sporadic information to make subjective judgments."

"Uh-huh!"

Jurgen Bauer nodded repeatedly and said, "Say it."

"In my opinion, your commercialization method is too bad. I don't know what the previous director did, but in the field of publicity, you have failed too much. By the way, do we have a press office?" Zhang Xian asked.

Jurgen Bauer looked blank.

Instead, Mary on the side said; "No, we now only have finance, scouting, HR (human resources) and administrative modules for the first team."

"It seems that we need to add a press office, right?" Zhang Xian looked at Mary with a smile and said, "Does Hoffenheim have a media company?"

Mary shook her head and said, "There is no Hoffenheim, but there is a small media company in Sinsheim."

Zhang Xiandao: "To get in touch with them, we need an external voice."

Mary nodded, went to the desk and took out a stack of paper and a pen, sat back and started to record.

Zhang Xian is very satisfied with Mary's performance.

"How much money is available at this stage?"

"After deducting the wages that need to be paid, we still have about [-] euros left."

Zhang Xian frowned, 8 yuan is less than [-] yuan, the most urgent thing is how to get money!
Zhang Xian continued to ask: "Don't we have any income from sponsorship?"

"There is a sponsorship from Haas Meat Federation, 50 euros a year, and their condition is the LOGO on the chest of the jersey!"

"It's too little, and it will be adjusted to 100 million euros in the next quarter."

Mary put down her pen, and said; "They won't agree."

Zhang Xian waved his hand and said, "As long as we enter the professional league next season, we are eligible to negotiate terms."

Mary frowned, she felt that Zhang Xian's words were a little unrealistic.

They have been working hard to enter the professional league in the past few years, but they have not succeeded. Why can they enter next year?
As if reading Mary's heart, Zhang Xian said with a smile: "Don't worry, we will enter, but before that, you need to sign a betting contract with them. As long as we enter the professional league, they must pay a sponsorship of 100 million euros. This will be a mutually beneficial, win-win situation, won't it?"

Mary stopped talking, but turned to look at Jurgen Bauer.

At this time, Jurgen Bauer excitedly raised his hand and said: "I can make the decision in this regard. As long as we enter the professional league, the Haas Meat Federation will provide us with a sponsorship of 200. No, [-] million euros!"

Zhang Xian froze for a moment, who gave you the confidence?

Mary smiled and pointed to Jurgen Bauer, "It's their family's property."

Oh!
Zhang Xian suddenly realized that he remembered that Smith had mentioned to him that the boss's house was in the sausage business.

Zhang Xian looked at Jurgen Bauer thoughtfully.

The latter tried to widen his eyes to make himself look more energetic.

The two looked at each other for a while, and Zhang Xian said, "Small problems need to be solved slowly, and the next step is the big policy."

Zhang Xian turned to look at Jurgen Bauer and said, "Sir, what is our goal? Or how big is your heart?"

Jurgen Bauer didn't hesitate at all, jumped up in an instant, clenched his fists and shouted: "Bundesliga! The Meteor team should be in the Bundesliga!"

The scene was very quiet, Zhang Xian looked at Jurgen Bauer indifferently.

Mary clutched her forehead, looking like she was having a headache.

Jurgen Bauer received no response. He opened his mouth, sat down like a deflated balloon, and said with a dejected expression, "Are you making fun of me too? I know that even if you don't smile on the surface, you will definitely make fun of me secretly."

"It doesn't matter, I'm used to it. Many people say I'm crazy. The Meteor team can't go to the Bundesliga at all. It's not a professional team at all."

"They said I was daydreaming, that my dream was as funny as a clown, and the fact that we couldn't even make it to the sixth tier, we were really an amateur team."

"I know, but... But I just want to go to the Bundesliga. My biggest dream is that the Meteor team can collide and fight with those powerful teams in the Bundesliga and in the European battlefield!"

"It's the only dream I've ever had in my life."

Jurgen Bauer was wronged like a 300-jin fat man, otherwise he is fat.

Zhang Xian said indifferently: "All dreams deserve to be respected."

Jurgen Bauer said wronged: "But they are right, a dream is a dream, and he cannot be realized."

"And what about the target?"

Jurgen Bauer looked up suspiciously,
Zhang Xian said with a smile: "I like to talk about goals, not dreams, because goals can be achieved. If I just wanted to make fun of you, then I wouldn't be here, would I?"

Jurgen Bauer trembled with excitement in an instant, the fat on his cheeks trembled, and asked: "So...so, you agree with it?"

"No, but we can try."

Jurgen Bauer was confused.

Seeing that, Zhang Xian stood up and said: "This is a long-term plan and goal. Even if we climb one level a year, it will take a full six years, and we need to solve many problems."

"For this reason, we need a long-term development strategy, conduct an assessment every two years, review and continue to formulate the development strategy for the next stage."

"After dividing the goals in detail, all this is not so difficult."

It was the first time for Jurgen Bauer to hear someone analyze this issue so seriously. He couldn't help but widen his eyes and said expectantly: "You continue."

"First of all, starting from the club itself, we need a club that is well run and financially healthy."

"At this point, today's clubs are not eligible. You know, even if we enter the Bundesliga, we have to conduct a financial assessment before we can play in the Bundesliga."

Jurgen Bauer nodded and said, "Hmm!"

"Secondly, the fan base. Our current influence is too low. How many fans do we have? One hundred? Two hundred? What is the attendance rate of the game? Is the fan support high? How many diehard fans are there?"

"A successful club needs a lot of support from the fans, it's a process that goes hand in hand."

"So, in the first two-year plan, we need to solve the fan base problem. We need to get more people to pay attention to us and be willing to join us."

Jurgen Bauer touched his chin and said, "But where do we find so many fans? The fans in big cities have already been carved up."

"Why do you want to go to the city?"

"Where are we going then?"

Zhang Xian turned on his phone, found a map of Baden Island, and said with a smile, "Here."

"what?"

Zhang Xian shook his head and said, "Bauer, don't you understand? It's impossible for us to enter the city to search for fans, and it doesn't fit the positioning of our team!"

"What is our position?" Julian Ball asked blankly.

Zhang Xian smiled and said: "Country! We are a country team, why should we seek development in the city? This is our base camp!"

"The countryside has enough resources. In fact, except for a few big cities in Baden, most of the population lives in the countryside." Zhang Xian bewitched, "This is a huge market. Are you really not tempted?"

Gudong!

Jurgen Bauer swallowed subconsciously, apparently he had already been bewitched by the big cake drawn by Zhang Xian.

"Can we really take it?" Jurgen Bauer's eyes revealed a look of greed.

Zhang Xian said with a smile: "Why not? Those big teams don't want these rural resources. As a representative of rural power, we need to integrate them to create a Baden Country League. Believe me, her future will be a behemoth, and she will push the Meteor team to the real European peak!"

The pinnacle of Europe!

Jurgen Bauer's gaze reveals fanaticism.

"What's next?" Jurgen Bauer trembled excitedly.

Mary looked at Zhang Xian lightly, with a look of scrutiny in her eyes.

In her opinion, Zhang Xian is just drawing a big cake for them.

However, she did not stop it, after all, it sounds good, if it can be realized.

Looking at the impatience of the opponent, Zhang Xian continued to laugh and said, "The next step is naturally to build a stadium, to create a stadium that belongs to us!"

"Our stadium?!" Jurgen Bauer's voice became sharp.

But anyone can see the light that burst out from those two small eyes.

Now the Meteor team's stadium is a small stadium with only 1000 seats, and they are even playing side-by-side with the German Football Association. This stadium does not meet the stadium area stipulated by the Football Association.

But there is no way, the Meteor team is poor, they are poor and have no money and can only use the broken stadium in the small town as their home court.

They can't even come up with the funds to rent other big stadiums.

Jurgen Bauer has often experienced the look in the eyes of other teams when they play away games.

That would be like saying that he was ashamed by the 'poor' look in their eyes.

Therefore, Zhang Xian's proposal touched Jurgen Bauer's heart, making him completely unable to resist.

"Ours! Ours! Ours! The stadium that belongs to us!" Julian Ball's whole body was trembling, repeating over and over again like a magic barrier, but his voice did become more and more firm.

"Build! It must be built!" Julian Ball slapped the table and said vigorously: "A stadium that belongs to us!"

Mary sighed.

This is really a blatant painting of a pie.

However, she knew that she was painting a big cake, but she couldn't help but look forward to it.

When thinking about the new stadium, this is the picture in her mind.

A huge and gorgeous stadium that can accommodate tens of thousands of people, where there are many flags and arms.

There were the craziest slogans and shouts.

That's where the Meteor team is swarming.

Not one or two hundred people, but tens of thousands of people shouted slogans and cheered for the team together.

That is their own people, where they will meet challenges again and again, they share weal and woe, and they fight side by side.

Mary was deeply fascinated by this scene, and she murmured subconsciously: "This is...awesome!"
