Godfather Of Champions

"Would you like to go down for a drink?" Tang En pointed to the elevator and said to the two people standing in front of him.

Evan looked at Alan, then shook his head: "No. At this time, it is estimated that the players below are all players. It is not suitable for us to appear. Just go to your room, Tony."

Dunn shook the room card key in his hand, "Okay, but apart from a few bottles of mineral water, I have nothing to entertain you." Standing in front of his room, he turned around and said to the two guests.

Evan smiled at him, while Alan was expressionless, standing next to Evan like his bodyguard.

Opening the door, Dunn invited the two in first. He was at the end and closed the door when he entered the house.

"It's a wonderful game, Tony." Evan first congratulated Dunn. At the Bernabeu, Dunn was either surrounded by reporters or raised up for a parade by the players, and then went to accept the award. Evan Daugherty never found a chance to approach him.

"We were sent off, and it was really thrilling to win." In Dunn's view, although the game was fierce and exciting, it wasn't considered as exciting. He took out three bottles of mineral water from the small refrigerator in the room, threw them to the two, unscrewed the bottle in his hand, and poured out half of it in one breath.

"If you win, you can manage so many!" Evan was very happy. Nottingham Forest was established 149 years ago. He is destined to become the most successful club chairman ever, maybe the "greatest". "Also, what do you plan to do with Pepe's red card?" Evan didn't rush to the subject. "Do you want to appeal?"

Dunn looked at Evan, who was deliberately concealing his purpose, and smiled: "Appeal? That red card is not unjustified at all. It is normal for UEFA to issue any tickets. The club accepts it. As for the other... It's nothing to do with you, Evan. You don't like to talk to those reporters in the media." By saying this, he is taking the matter to himself.

"Well, I can guess what you are going to do..." Evan shook his head. "But I advise you not to go too far."

"I have my own measure." Dunn poured another sip of cold Evian water.

"Your measure..." Evan smiled bitterly, but only a bitter smile. Dunn rarely asks the club to wipe his butt.

In fact, think about it carefully over the years. When Dun En and the media are arguing, the club always stays out of the way and ignores it. Dunn succeeded in getting the public to focus on his temperament and character without thinking of anything to do with the club. When he was successful, he represented Nottingham Forest, and when he had a bad reputation, he had nothing to do with the Forest.

Dunn walked to the window, then opened the glass window and turned off the air conditioner. The night wind rushed in, and the curtains were blown up. The wind on the eleventh floor is quite strong.

With the wind pouring in, there is also the hustle and bustle of the bustling world outside. The sound of car horns in the streets below and the drunken singing of fans become faint and unreal in the sound of the whirring wind.

"It's cool." Dunn opened his arms as if embracing the night.

"Hey, Tony. Do you have any plans for the holidays? I'm not talking about going to Brazil to explain the World Cup arrangements." Evan still didn't talk about the business, hesitant.

Dunn was not in a hurry, and accompanied him to nonsense: "With my wife. Where does she go I go."

"You are really a good husband." Evan praised.

Dunn shook his head indifferently: "I'm not a good chance for this once a year, not even a pass." If it wasn't for maintaining the authority of a head coach in front of the players, he would even be here. Bring Shania to her room at night and enjoy the joy of fish and water.

The two of them talked about each other for a while, during which Alan Adams remained silent, sitting next to Evan like a transparent person, drinking the mineral water in his hands every mouthful.

Perhaps he realized that Dunn must be very tired after a fierce game. Evan finally got to the point: "Actually, Allen and I came to you this time for the new contract, Tony."

Hearing him say "new contract", Allen put aside the invisible armor, took out a stack of paper from the briefcase he carried with him, and handed it to Evan Daggerty.

The corner of Dunn's mouth bends-what should come is always coming, no matter how much idleness he can't stop it.

"You said that the Champions League did not consider the renewal of the contract. Now I am very happy that the Champions League is over, and it is still our victory. Now the club offers you a new contract-completely up-to-date, just It was decided after the game was over...Allen did a lot of effort." Evan Daggerty knew about the contradiction between Dunn and Allen, so he wanted to restore the relationship between these two capable men. affection.

Dunn didn't look at Alan, and said nothing.

"The treatment has improved a lot. If you sign on this, you will be the coach of the highest paid club in England!" Evan Daugherty said excitedly. In fact, based on his character, he would not be so generous. But he deeply understands what Tony Dunn means to Nottingham Forest. As long as he can be kept, he can be repaid no matter how much money he spends—have heard that the champion is worried about money?

Dunn stretched out his hand to Evan, and Evan quickly handed over the contract in his hand. Continue to describe to Dunn the bright future after the contract renewal: "...Next season we move to a new stadium, and ticket revenue will definitely increase. But Nottingham is really too small. We plan to continue to explore overseas markets. You three It's time to take the crown! The market is open and funds are ample, and then everyone you want to buy will have money!"

Dunn ignored Evan’s passionate speech, and looked down at the terms of the contract. Evan didn't lie to him, this contract is more generous than any he has ever seen. If he signs on this, his annual salary will be as high as 7.5 million pounds. Although looking at world football, this is not the highest salary for coaches, but in the Premier League, he has already taken the lead in the deal. Wenger's annual salary of five million yuan can't threaten him at all.

This is only the annual salary, not including those rewards for winning the championship. For the godfather of the championship, taking the championship is like getting something, and getting the bonus is naturally easy.

But Dunn did not value these. It's not that he doesn't love money, but that he has many ways to make money, and the salary the club gives is only part of it...

In addition to salary, he has many endorsement contracts. For example, Armani, such as FM series games, such as Gillette razor, such as Ray-Ban sunglasses. In addition, he has a contract with the BBC television station. On the national team game day, he will be a guest commentator for the England team broadcast on the BBC, and he also has a sum of money in the account. In addition, his autobiography "Ten Years" is very popular. It has been in the top three in the UK bestseller list for five consecutive weeks, and has been on the top spot for two weeks. Everyone is full of curiosity about the most personal and mysterious coach in England. Compared with these, the manuscript fees earned by occasionally writing column articles for a few media are simply drizzle and not worth mentioning.

It can be said that in the eight-year long contract he signed with the club before, he did not propose to process capital once and played the best example in the team. His supporters believe that he is the only coach who does not value money in the commercialization of football. Some people think that his love for Nottingham Forest is beyond measure by money, but in fact it is only because of the £2.7 million. The annual salary only accounts for one-tenth of his total annual income in recent years...

Dunn quickly skimmed over these terms about his income. He hoped to see that he had more power to guarantee that it would be written on it, in black and white, and he would have evidence to defend his power when the time came.

This is also his last chance for the club.

But he was disappointed. The authority of his head coach was not written into any clause of the contract. Maybe Evan feels that there is no need to write, because the Premier League coach is already the most powerful coach in the world, even though their power is completely incomparable to that of more than 20 years ago. Maybe Evan didn't want to write, because he was afraid that something really happened in the future and was threatened by Dunn's neck. It is also possible that this is the idea of ​​Alan Adams. Didn't Evan say that the contract was drawn up by Alan? How could he write the things that restricted him on the contract?

Dunn shook his head gently, closed the contract and handed it back to Evan.

Evan did not expect that Dunn would return the contract to himself intact. He previously thought Dunn would take out a pen and sign without hesitation after seeing the income figures.

"Uh, Tony?" Evan didn't pick up the contract right away, but asked with some confusion.

Dunn lowered his head, as if he had made a lot of determination. He raised his head and smiled at Evan as if he had exhausted all his strength and said, "I don't plan to sign on this, Evan."

Evan Daugherty thought he had heard him wrong, he stared at Dun En with his eyes widened, and he could see from the smile on his face how much he was joking.

Dunn guessed his thoughts: "Don't look, I'm not kidding." He lifted his legs and watched the club chairman who was still in shock and unable to extricate himself. Look at the peaceful Alan Adams behind him. He is really a poor man...

Allen didn't mean to say anything, Dunn didn't speak anymore after saying this, Evan was still in a daze. There was a moment of silence in the room. But this silence is not embarrassing, because their minds are different and they are all thinking about their own affairs. The noise on the road outside the window and downstairs is weaker. It must be that the policemen in charge of maintaining law and order are finally planning to do something.

Time passed by, and Evan had long since recovered from the initial shock, and since then he has been thinking about why Dunn refused to renew his contract. Of course, he might have guessed the answer long ago. For example, it must have been Allen forcibly selling Lennon a year ago, which caused them to be hostile to each other... But why didn't they forget what happened a year ago? Isn't it too careful? People always have to look forward, and the past will let it pass. As long as we are together, what championships can't be won, and what stars can't buy? What is a Lennon?

But how did he know that Dunn didn't care about Lennon or Messi at all, but his authority was threatened and challenged most directly. He is a person with some mental cleanliness in this respect. As long as this happens for the first time, then there will only be more and more similar situations in the future, and it will annoy him.

In the unlikely event that the Arab lunatics in Manchester City throw out 100 million to buy George, Dunn is not sure whether he can keep it. Because Allen will intervene 100%, in the eyes of this pure businessman, 100 million can buy three slightly worse but still world-class midfielders for the team. One to three, which is more cost-effective?

Businessmen will never understand that football is not a game of numbers. Some things can't be bought for much money. Did Manchester City spend so much money to win a league championship? The loser who didn't even get the League Cup!

Evan considered it for a long time and observed it for a long time. He discovered that Alan and Tony really didn't mean to settle. So he said, "I think there might be some misunderstanding, Tony..."

Dunn shook his head: "I'm tired, Evan. I just want to rest, accompany my wife at home and take care of her daily life, just like a man eating soft food." He wanted to show off directly, "I And Allen is at odds with each other, and there is no need to force each other because of disagreement with each other. The way they are different is not conspiring to each other", it became this excuse.

"You can rest when you have holidays."

"A vacation that is less than a month can't make up for the debt I owed to Shania for eleven years." Dunn said this very seriously, and did not mean to perfuse Evan. Because what he said was the truth.

But Evan didn’t believe Dunn’s excuse. He frowned and shook his head: "Oh, please, don’t do that, Tony... No coach has ever left the job for this reason at the age of forty-five. You are still young. Okay? You can achieve greater success! As long as we are together, you admit it? In the Premier League... No, in the world, only Nottingham Forest is the best place for you to play your talents. We need you, and you need us. "

"I admit it." Dunn smiled and nodded. This is also true.

There are his direct line of troops, the fans who support him most, the media who sing praises and play psychological warfare for him, and the chairman of the club who most of the time has no influence and doesn’t care what he is playing... Maybe go elsewhere. Only one or two of these conditions can be met, but all of them are met. There is only Nottingham Forest in the world, and there is no semicolon.

Alan Adams may be the only shortcoming here, but it is also the most deadly. He wouldn't be like the jealous woman in the eight o'clock soap opera, pointing to Alan and asking Evan loudly: "I still want him, you choose one!"

He knew that Alan Adams, as Evan’s entrepreneurial partner, had been a friend for decades, and how much the weight of that friendship was in Evan’s heart. No matter how jealous he is, his cousin will definitely not be able to win.

"I just want to rest, so it doesn't make sense that the only Forest team in the world is suitable for me, Evan."

Evan still thought Dunn was going to quit: "Is it better to go to those big clubs than in Nottingham Forest?" After so many years, he has long abandoned his ideal of making the team into the G14 ranks. This is of course directly related to the disbandment of G14 by UEFA.

"I won't go to Manchester United, Evan. I won't go anywhere... Well, maybe I will go to the United States. Shania's career is basically there. But I don't know how to coach. Does the United States have football? I don't know anything about it." Dunn spread his hands, pretending to be relaxed.

Evan stared at Dun En with a smile, as if trying to see him through.

Dunn did not continue to say.

The two looked at each other for a while, and Evan stood up from the sofa: "I hope you can think about it, Tony. There is more than a month before the contract expires, this contract..." He patted the contract in his hand. , "Keep it for you."

This is going to go.

Dunn got up to see off the guests. "Don't bother, Evan. Go and find my successor now. I'm not doing it, I'm serious." He said to Evan seriously at the door.

Evan didn't answer, just went out with Alan.

He remained silent until two people walked into the empty elevator and saw that the elevator door was completely closed in front of him, and he suddenly shouted: "Fuck! How can he do this!!!"

Allen continued to be silent next to him, quietly listening to his old friend and boss venting his dissatisfaction like a volcanic eruption.

"Who does he think he is?! Is it amazing to win three championships! He doesn't want an annual salary of 7.5 million, what else does he want! You say, Alan!"

Evan Daggerty turned abruptly and stared at Alan Adams.

"Do you say that I am sorry for him? He was ranting outside, and I will help him wipe his ass! I will try my best to satisfy his request. In the eyes of the media, he has become the king of Nottingham Forest. Who remembers me as a club? Chairman? But I don’t care...I really don’t care about this! I just want him to continue coaching this team and continue to win championships for us! He is still not satisfied, he still... fuck!"

Evan slammed a fist against the metal wall of the elevator, and there was a muffled noise, and the elevator seemed to be shaking.

"Well, I know what he thinks in his heart, what **** to accompany his wife? He is just complaining that his power is not enough. How much does he want? Will he directly replace me as the chairman of this club? That way, no one can care. He is now." Evan sneered suddenly, "The media touted him as the'King of Nottingham Forest', he really considers himself a king... ridiculous!"

The elevator stopped with a ding sound, and the door slowly opened in front of them. Already on the first floor.

Evan didn't look back at his partner, the anger on his face had dissipated, and he couldn't see that he had just scolded so violently in the elevator. He said as usual: "Allen, prepare a list of successors for me. I will see the list tomorrow afternoon at the latest. Then we will start looking for coaches."

Allen nodded first, and then realized that he already knew everything that he should not show in front of Evan, so he asked, "Don't wait until June 30?"

"New coaches, new plans, new lineups, everything takes time, by then we will be late, compared with other competitors."

Evan walked out of the elevator as he spoke, and Allen followed him. Two people walked through the lobby, walked out the door, got into a black car that had been waiting for a long time, and disappeared into the night.
