Chapter 508: Not Working Hard Enough
Ballack never thought that the person who took the initiative to keep him turned out to be the club's general manager Hoeness, but Glory!
So when he heard this, he looked up in surprise and looked at the glory in surprise.
"What did you say, Rong?" He asked, trying to make sure he had heard it wrong.
"I mean, why are you leaving? You've been playing for Bayern Munich for three seasons now and you're familiar with the team, right? Even if something doesn't go your way, it's better to start over with a new team, right? You're going to be thirty next year, and you're going to venture out to a new team at thirty...... Well, I don't think it's too a wise choice. ”
In order to be able to keep Barak here, Glory went to great lengths.
But it has to be said that what he said makes sense.
That's why Barak has been hesitating.
He had intended to reach the pinnacle of his career at Bayern Munich. He arrived at Bayern Munich three years ago at the age of 26, the prime age of a player, and he will be 30 years old on a four-season contract. The best four years of his career will be spent at Bayern Munich.
But who would have thought that he did not reach the peak he expected at Bayern Munich.
So he had to venture to other leagues and teams at the age of thirty to start over.
It's not just the tactics of the new team that you have to adapt to, but also the weather, food, culture, language of the new country...... Everything, everything.
But he did have a heartbreak with Bayern Munich's European performances over the past three seasons.
Now that the glory is in the team, will Bayern Munich's performance improve?
From the first Champions League group game, there was no sign of this.
Bayern Munich played badly in that game, and if it weren't for the glory, the away face Vienna Rapid would have been a draw.
But can Bayern Munich always rely on glory?
"Am I sure I'll win the championship if I stay?" Barak asked rhetorically about glory.
This time, Rongguang did not hesitate, but nodded quickly: "Yes, of course I can." ”
"You know, I'm not talking about league championships." Barak said.
Ballack is well aware that even if Bayern Munich is not very competitive in Europe, this Bayern Munich team is still no problem in Germany, so it is not worth mentioning that the unchallenging goal of winning the league title is not worth mentioning at all.
"I know, European champion. That's what I came to Bayern Munich for. Rongguang said confidently.
"Rong, I have a question." Barak asked. "Where does this self-confidence come from? Why are you sure you can win the championship? ”
"I'm aiming for the title, and then I guess it won't be too bad, right?" Rongguang said.
"But sometimes, even if you work hard, you won't be a champion." Barak said.
The topic went around in circles and back to before.
In football, you don't have to work hard to get a good result.
Too many failures have made Barak convinced of this.
Unexpectedly, this time Rongguang shook his head categorically: "If that's the case, I think, it must be that I haven't worked hard enough." ”
Barak's mouth was wide open, and he looked at Glory a little sluggishly.
"If I work hard enough, I will definitely win the championship. If I don't win the championship, it must be that I haven't worked hard enough. That's what I thought. Glory repeated.
"But...... Luck......"
"If you're unlucky, it must be that I haven't tried hard enough. If I try hard enough, I think even luck will be on my side. Glory spoke firmly.

Glory returned to the pitch and continued his staggering hard work under the scorching sun.
And Ballack did not leave immediately, but stood on the sidelines and watched the glorious training for a while.
Temperatures in late September are not much lower than in the sweltering heat, especially at noon.
Under the sun, the turf seemed to wilt a little.
At this time, everyone will choose to take a lunch break in the room, blow the air conditioner, and play games......
But there is only one person in the whole team, and he is still training.
It is said that even Magat, the "devil", once asked him to reduce the intensity of his training and reduce the training time because he was worried that Rongguang would practice too hard. The only person who could make Magath the "Devil" do this, as far as Barak knew, was Glory.
Not working hard enough......
When these words came out of his mouth, they felt a little funny.
Such people don't work hard enough, so what are we?
But...... He worked so hard to win so many titles, right?
※※※
Barak looked at it for a moment, then turned and left.
Behind him, the sound of Rongguang hitting the football with the instep of his foot was heard.
"If you don't win the championship, it must be because you haven't worked hard enough."
The voice of glory sounded in his head.
Not working hard enough...... Is it?

Debora brought back to Rongguang the latest developments in the contract renewal negotiations.
"FC Bayern Munich is willing to give you an annual salary of five million euros after tax, plus a signing fee of three million euros, which is also after tax. In addition, the prize money is much higher than what you are currently having. In addition, this annual salary increases by fifteen percent per year. The contract is for a period of four years. ”
"Sounds good, but ......" Rong Guang looked at Debora and hesitated for a moment, "Can you still get better treatment?" ”
"I want to, too, but it's hard." Debora shook her head and said.
She does want to be able to fight for better treatment, such as a higher salary, or if the salary can't be raised, a more signing fee.
That would be almost instantaneous, and she would be able to settle a million dollars in debt.
But she has been fighting for a long time to get this treatment. Hoeness couldn't have given her more.
"Well, that's not bad." Glory did not force Debora.
The contract is for a period of four years, with an annual salary increase of 15 percent. The first year was five million, the second was five million euros, the third was six ,610,000 euros, and the fourth, the last year of the contract, was seven million 6,600,000. Such a salary is already considered high.
If Rongguang agrees to accept the contract, then it will be a big contract worth about 25 million euros for four years!
And this is after taxes, not before taxes.
The difference between the two words saves a lot of money for Glory. You must know that the tax rate in Germany is very heavy, and with such an income, you have to pay 45% of the personal income tax. If it is before taxes, then the salary he actually received in the first year is only 2.75 million euros, which is far worse than the 5 million on paper...... That huge psychological gap is not something that ordinary people can bear.
Therefore, Hoeness agreed to change the annual salary from pre-tax to after-tax, which can also be said to fully express the sincerity of the club to leave glory.
Glory really has no reason to be dissatisfied.
In addition to this salary, there is a signing fee of three million.
This is not the same as the salary, it is immediately credited - as soon as Rongguang signs the contract, he will immediately receive a signing fee of three million in his bank account.
"Tomorrow Hoeness will give me the text of the contract, and I will show it to you." Debora said.
Rongguang nodded, and then he was eating, and suddenly asked, "Is your one million enough?" ”
Debora didn't expect Rongguang to take the initiative to mention this issue, she had only mentioned it once in Rongguang's face before, and Rongguang never took the initiative to mention it.
So when she heard Rong Guang say that now, she was surprised.
She didn't understand why Rongguang suddenly cared about this matter.
"I remember almost, right?" Glory asked again.
"Nope. I also have to pay taxes. Debora shook her head.
If she didn't pay taxes, Debora would have enough savings. But her income is first subject to 45 percent personal income tax, followed by 20 percent interest tax on her bank deposits.
Taxes in Germany are simply too heavy.
She now has a personal fortune of 750,000 euros.
But this is before taxes.
As a non-resident with no permanent property in Germany, people like Debora have a term in the German tax system – restricted taxpayers.
Restricted taxpayers are non-domiciled persons in Germany who are subject to personal income tax only on their own income sourced in Germany.
However, all of Debola's income comes from within Germany......
So all her income is subject to personal income tax. And with her income, her personal income tax rate is as high as 45 percent......
In this way, the 750,000 euros of personal property is only 410,000 when the tax is paid......
At the current exchange rate, it is equal to half a million US dollars......
That's double that of a million dollars!
(Note: I forgot that Debora's income is still taxed, so I mistakenly calculated Debola's actual assets as high, and now the number of tax deductions is correct.) I'm really sorry, let's just take this number as the standard...... )
"Only half a million dollars?" Glory was also a bit unexpected. "So little?"
"Because Germany has a high tax rate." Debora explained to Rong Guang in detail the tax rate in Germany.
"Germany's taxes are really high......" he smacked his lips after listening to Debora's analysis of Germany's tax rates. Fortunately, thanks to Debola's efforts, all of his income is calculated according to the tax after-tax, otherwise he would really die of heartache......
He had always thought that Debora was about to finish something, after all, she had been with him for two seasons. I have made a lot of money in the past two seasons, so as my agent, Debora should also make a lot of money, right?
How do you think that it is only half away from the goal!
At this rate, isn't that two years away from making a million dollars?
In other words, she has to get along with herself like this for two years......
I don't know what Lu Dao is for, but when I think of this, Rong Guang actually has a feeling of relief.
The previous feeling of tension and urgency, as if she was counting down, disappeared - Debora thought that Rongguang should not care when she left, but in fact, in Rongguang's heart, there has always been a clock, and this clock has started counting down since Debora served as her agent.
When the countdown reaches zero, that's when Debora leaves herself.
At first, Glory didn't feel anything about it, leaving and leaving, and returning to zero was zero.
But as time dwindles, Glory finds himself vaguely anxious about the countdown to this.
It's as if ...... When time goes to zero, something bad will happen.
He didn't want that day to come.
Debora was also quite surprised that Rong Guang actually cared about her savings: "Why do you suddenly want to ask this?" ”
"Uh, nothing...... Just casually asking. After Rong Guang finished speaking, in order to cover up, he lowered his head and ate again.
Debora looked at the glory of hard work, and frowned slightly in confusion.
