Chapter 185 Who can teach me?

"You guys talk, if you have anything to ask Fan Ju to come to me, Michael." Rembrandt said goodbye politely and left the living room. This was a private meeting. His agent was not suitable to stay by the side and join in the fun.

Zhang Depei nodded. After Rembrandt left, he turned around and looked at the young man in front of him, with a smile on his face and didn't speak first, as if he was waiting for Fan Ju to ask a question.

"Is green tea okay?" Fan Ju raised the teapot. It was not a traditional Chinese tea set, but Western porcelain with florals. However, drinking tea did not require too much attention. In fact, he originally thought that preparing two glass cups was enough, but Rembrandt found this set of utensils and stuffed it to Fan Ju.

Zhang Depei nodded and still looked at Fan Ju, but the smile on the corner of his mouth became even more open.

"You are different from them. Don't you plan to ask me why I came to you?" Zhang Depei touched the teacup and said to Fan Ju.

"I think Mr. Zhang must have come back to me if he has something to do, but even if it's okay, I think it's pretty good to have a tea and chat with seniors." Fan Ju seemed even more relaxed, perhaps because of his psychological age, he didn't like to pay much attention to age. It's not that he didn't respect it, but that he just built respect on equality.

"Do you know Santoro?" Zhang Depei did not intend to express his intention, or he himself did not make a decision. He could only make a choice after getting to know the young man in front of him.

Fan Ju shook his head. He knew too little about the tennis world. Zhang Depei had heard of the famous name for a long time before he came into contact with tennis. In terms of the characteristics of the game, his playing style with Zhang Depei was not the same. Apart from being used as a research case, he did not have much contact with other aspects.

And his opponent, Santoro, is the one who eliminated Zhang Depei. Fan Ju also knows little, although the other party has a very famous name and claims to be a magician in the tennis world. However, if Fan Ju really wants to tell the truth, it is really difficult to comment on the innovation of holding both hands and slap in front and back.

"Then do you understand me?" Zhang Depei was surprised when he saw Fan Ju shook his head. If he cared about tennis, he would have some understanding of the special player. However, Fan Ju shook his head, but he couldn't help but ask more curiously.

"The youngest French Open Grand Slam winner, um... ran very fast and flexibly. Oh, by the way, there is also the highest ranking second in the world." Fan Ju felt a little embarrassed as he said, as if he really knew too little.

Zhang Depei suddenly felt that he had met a special existence today. He had come into contact with many Chinese players. Every time he saw him, he would show respect first. However, when he saw Fan Ju today, he found that the other party was very "calm". He thought it was a personality problem, but he didn't expect that this was the reason.

"Sorry, I've only been in contact with tennis for a little over a year. I've been learning how to play, and I can't recognize many people." Fan Ju said and touched his head, feeling a little embarrassed.

More than a year? Zhang Depei's face was completely incredible. He subconsciously thought that Fan Ju was lying to him, but when he looked at Fan Ju, he felt that he didn't look like him. Even if he wanted to lie, he wouldn't say that he was so outrageous to deceive him?

"Okay, I believe you, but I think you don't know I'm right now. If you knew me a few years ago, I'm afraid my youngest Grand Slam title would not be able to be saved, haha!" Zhang Depei said, but joked. Every game he now is a farewell match. Participants will only say goodbye to the audience who love him for the last time.

The photos with Sampras were not available, but Zhang Depei's retirement was more commemorated with the past.

The US Open, which also chose to officially retire in 2003, Sampras was just waiting, but Zhang Depei chose to enjoy the game.

"The youngest title is yours. When my son is born, maybe I will ask him to try to break the record." Fan Ju also smiled easily. Zhang Depei gave him a good feeling, very sincere and not hypocritical. Even if he met for the first time, he would not feel tired.

After chatting for a few words, Zhang Depei felt that the contact between the two sides was very harmonious, but he found that his earliest thoughts became a little unsuitable for the young man in front of him.

"Actually, I came here today and wanted to see if I could become your future coach, but now it seems that what you need is not me. Mr. Polyteli is right. You are a player with your own ideas. All you need is a team that assists you, not a coach that controls you." Zhang Depei felt the correctness of old Nick's words. After just a brief conversation, he felt Fan Ju's confidence and decisiveness from himself.

Old Nick Fan Ju has always been unable to understand why Zhang Depei came to find him and why Rembrandt would get involved. But now it seems that it is clear that Img Company can't wait to form a real service team for Fan Ju.

The core staff of the team is naturally the head coach. Under the leadership of IMG, Old Nick found Zhang Depei. It has to be said that in the tennis world, Old Nick has a great face. Zhang Depei just listened to the general introduction and agreed to meet Fan Ju.

"Since the loss after 1996, my career has actually gone awry. I hope you don't repeat my path and don't care about the noise Santoro makes on the field. Compared to that guy's cutting, the noise under his feet makes his opponent a headache."

Zhang Depei left, but he still didn't forget to leave him advice before leaving, hoping that the young man in front of him could walk out of his own path and not get lost on the way like himself.

"Is that so? It seems that I am really a unique existence. It is so difficult to find a coach." Fan Ju knew his problem. A coach with similar experience can help him avoid detours, but the question is, where can I find the second player in this world who has the ability to double the speed?

So Fan Ju's career is destined to be lonely. In fact, Zhang Depei would be a good choice if he was his own coach. But both Fan Ju and Zhang Depei know that the other party is not the best, nor is it the most suitable one.

"How is it? How did you talk to Mr. Zhang?" Rembrandt was a parent who cared about his children's blind dates. As soon as Zhang Depei left, he couldn't wait to come in and find out the news.

He actually contributed more than half of the time to this meeting. He believed that if he could not prepare a perfect team for Fan Ju, it would be a waste of excellent talent.

"It was a good talk. He even asked me to go fishing together when I went to the United States. I think we can become good friends." Fan Ju teased Rembrandt. After the two understood each other's purpose, more talk became interests and hobbies, rather than tennis.

Fishing? Friends? Why do you think something is wrong? Rembrandt is not stupid. He is just not as smart as Fan Ju, and most of the time he guessed that there was no chance, but he started to have a headache again. How to arrange the coaching candidates for Fan Ju after that.

"A serving coach, a daily training coach, a physical coach, and a sideline coach. Nutritionists and media assistants must not be missing. As for the agent, you can arrange it yourself. I hope there is an assistant around you who can handle problems at any time." Fan reported a team size of a seven-person team in one breath, which is the maximum limit he can bear at present.

For the team of these seven people alone, Fan Ju has to prepare at least more than $1 million in one year of operating expenses, which also means that this is a huge expense that cannot be afforded by his current event bonus.

"What about the head coach? Did Mr. Zhang agree?" Rembrandt was waiting for the most important name, but what he was waiting for was Fan Ju's movement of shaking his head.

"No one can serve as the head coach in my style. Maybe you can try to invite Sampras and Agassi together, but I think Agassi will have to wait for a few years. Sampras... I'm afraid I can't afford it." Fan Ju joked. Of course, if these two people can really serve as head coaches, of course, it is the most suitable one.

Fan Ju has strong Internet access skills, but his real Internet skills are still very immature. He needs to learn Sampras's front-end response, rather than relying on his reaction to see the opponent's movements before hitting the ball.

Agassi's prediction, bottom-line ability and rhythm control are Fan Ju's most urgent ability to strengthen.

However, this beautiful wish is impossible to achieve. Not to mention two, Rembrandt can't invite one of them. Fortunately, some things are not so urgent. No matter how powerful the technology is, all of them have their roots. The kinematics team of Old Nick and Fest can help them solve these problems. Rather than finding a head coach, it is better to find a group of "head coaches" to help them.

The solo competition in the United States and the experience before the French Open started made Fan Ju urgently need a complete team. He originally wanted to delay it, but after tasting the sweetness, Fan Ju could feel more how hard it is to bear it alone.

"After the French Open, please help me choose two endorsements. The years are controlled within 2 years, and the total amount is about 3 million US dollars." Fan Ju made a request based on his current value. This is the first time he has actively asked for endorsements with Rembrandt, and before that, Rembrandt talked to him about related matters.

When he was in the double championship, Fan Ju relied on the title of the Demon to increase his single-year endorsement value to US$500,000. However, in the next three and four championships, the three and four championships added several endorsements with the same level of quotations, did not actually increase Fan Ju's value.

Obviously, at the challenge level, Fan Ju's potential has been hollowed out, and only by making breakthroughs in higher-level events can you gain higher attention.

The annual net worth of US$500,000 is not low, which is higher than that of many top 50 players. The reason why Fan Ju has gained such high attention is more due to the repeated hype since the banned drug incident.
