Match point

Chapter 220 Overall Planning
"I know, we all need time."

"You need time to see if I'm a competent agent. I need time to see if my judgment is accurate. Obviously we need to work together to see if we can confirm each other."

Tobias' words were very pertinent, but Gawain couldn't help but want to laugh. Under Tobias' confused gaze, Gawain said with a smile.

"This really sounds like a confession line from a romantic movie, honestly, did you get the wrong script?"

A joke made Tobias laugh too, but he didn't mind.

"From a certain point of view, the cooperation between an agent and a player is indeed a love affair. We are all looking for the person who suits us best to make ourselves better."

Gao Wen shook his head lightly, a smile bloomed at the corner of his mouth, "Your ability to talk nonsense is beyond my imagination."

"Thank you for the compliment." Tobias accepted the "comment" frankly.

Laughter, even more brilliant.

Then Tobias continued.

"As for now, let's talk about the next step, which is much more practical."

"As I said on the phone, in the early stage of the cooperation, all my work is free until you get your first competition bonus, but it doesn't matter if you don't rush to turn professional for the time being, I will start Find a sponsor for you, and my commission can be paid at that time."

Gao Wen didn't comment because he knew that Tobias hadn't gotten to the point yet.

really!

"At present, you have not yet decided whether to turn professional, so you don't have to worry about hiring a coaching team. The first thing you need to consider is the wild card of the US Open."

"My personal opinion is that before the Grand Slams, you start with a challenge game and slowly play against the pros, getting used to the pros."

"At the same time, apply to see the wild card of the 250 or [-] races. If you are the next best thing, the wild card of the qualifying round is also acceptable. After waiting to adapt to the rhythm of the challenge, you can go to the professional circuit to experience the atmosphere and experience. Intensity, getting ready for a Grand Slam."

"From a timing standpoint, New Haven was certainly the most logical choice."

"After the three-week challenge, I rested for a week and then went to New Haven to compete."

"Because New Haven and the U.S. Open are held back-to-back, top players often try to avoid arranging events a week before the Grand Slam in order to ensure their physical strength and condition, so New Haven's entry list is relatively less intense. It's an opportunity."

"But there are occasional exceptions."

"A top [-] big-name player who has a poor record in the previous warm-up matches and is still not in the best condition may temporarily apply for a wild card from New Haven, trying to find his hand on the court as much as possible. At this time , Those who are sacrificed are often other unqualified wild card players."

"So, New Haven is not sure, then we can apply to Washington as well."

"Washington's game is a little bit earlier, and naturally, the schedule is different."

"Because the time in Washington is relatively tight before the two masters, we can play a challenge first, then go to Washington to gain knowledge, and then return to the challenge to improve ourselves in a targeted manner, and make preparations for the Grand Slam. Prepare."

Eloquent, rambling.

Although Martin had already discussed the schedule with Gao Wen before, it was still relatively general in general and did not go into detail. Now Tobias gave a very professional opinion.

Generally speaking, for professional top players, their schedule is often the result of negotiations between the coaching team and the agent. The professional fields of the two parties are slightly different. status to decide.

Now that Gao Wen doesn't have a coaching team, he can only rely on his agent. Tobias showed his professional ability, which is really an eye-opener.

"Of course, that's not all."

Not finished yet?

"At present, you don't have a sponsor for the time being. You don't have any jerseys, sneakers, or rackets. You need to buy all the equipment by yourself. This is obviously unreasonable."

"During your participation in the challenge, I will help you get sponsorship as soon as possible, including equipment, including hotels and travel, etc. can be simplified."

Professionals are really different. Those problems that seem to trouble Gao Wen are not a problem at all in Tobias' eyes.

Tobias could feel the warmth in Gawain's gaze, and when he stopped speaking, he asked accordingly.

"What's the matter, is there a problem?"

"No, there's nothing wrong with it. It's just that you just said that the national championship has no weight at all, so why should they sponsor my equipment and travel?"

Gao Wen admitted that his question was a bit amateurish, since it was not his field of expertise after all.

He always believes that the only law of competitive sports is performance. As long as good results can be achieved in the field, then all problems will no longer be problems; but if there are no results, problems can arise without problems.

So where did Tobias' confidence come from?After all, Gao Wen doesn't even have a world ranking right now.

Tobias gave a confident smile.

"Because you're the All-American champion represented by John Tobias, that's the difference."

The answer is really simple and clear.

Gao Wen couldn't help laughing directly.

Tobias continued while the iron was hot.

"Gao, I need you to believe in me, so that I can actually arrange the whole summer schedule."

"Besides, before you officially go to participate in the challenge, you still need to do some systematic training. I mean to bypass the formal training stipulated by the NCAA. As long as you nod, I will arrange it immediately."

Now, Gao Wen can finally truly understand why Sampras attaches so much importance to his agent——

Everything was well organized and clear, not only comprehensive but also professional, everything was sorted out clearly.

With a smile on his brows like this, Gao Wen spread his hands, "Please tell me, which deed of sale do I need to sign?"

Although it was a joke, Tobias immediately realized that he had successfully won Gao Wen's brokerage contract. Joy and happiness filled his chest instantly, revealing it unabashedly, and his whole body radiated a bright light.

"Just a little correction, I work for you. You are Party A and I am Party B. So, to be precise, we should sign a contract agreement, and then you officially hire me as your agent."

Although the status and weight of top big-name agents are different, they don't need to beg for the favor of players, there are countless players eager to join them; but in essence, Tobias' words are correct, The players are Party A, and they can terminate the cooperation agreement at any time.

Gao Wen slightly raised his chin, showing an expression of sudden realization.

"So, I am the devil in charge of hell. Are you going to sell your soul now? Very good, I accept this deal."

　First more.
