Chapter 208: Tokugawa Kazuya's Crisis and Opportunity, the Beginning of Everything - Kitagawa
Switzerland, at Brand Manor.
"Abei has really trained a lot of amazing young men!"
"I don't know how many people will be able to join the club after the Neon National Competition..."
Just after Brand finished watching the remote live broadcast of the Neon Kanto Tournament.
He sighed as he turned off the computer.
After all, he is still the boss of HERO Tennis Club, one of the top three in the world.
His vision is absolutely top-notch.
Whether it is Kunimitsu Tezuka, Shusuke Fuji, Ryoma Echizen from Seigakuen, Keigo Atobe from Hyotei Academy, or Akatsuki from Yamabuki Junior High School.
And all the regular players from Rikkai University Affiliated Middle School.
It has already made people of his level want to recruit him.
This shows how fast these young people are growing.
"I don't know if Abei has made up his mind yet."
"After all, if we go there earlier, we can get used to each other in advance."
Picking up the photo on the table, Brand smiled kindly.
Just the next moment.
The phone on the table rang.
Raising his eyebrows slightly, Brand picked up the call.
To know.
It's almost twelve o'clock in the evening now.
If a call comes in at this time, it is either a big deal or a more urgent decision.
"Hello? What's the matter?"
After the words fell.
A voice full of apology came from the other end of the phone.
"I'm so sorry to disturb your rest at this time."
"I'm the head of the UK branch. There's a top player whose contract is about to expire."
"Ordinarily, this kind of contract renewal situation needs to be reported step by step, but since the results after reporting it have always been non-renewal, I have no choice but to contact you."
"Although this little guy hasn't reached the level of being a key talent yet, I think he still has great potential. He might explode soon..."
Hear the words.
Brand frowned slightly.
To know.
HERO Tennis Club has a certain promotion and training mechanism.
Ordinary players in the division - seeded players in the division - key players in the division - ordinary players in the headquarters - seeded players in the headquarters - key players in the headquarters.
The higher the level, the richer the training resources you will enjoy.
Players who do not have a certain cost-effectiveness ratio will generally not continue to renew their contracts.
After all, every player has to be paid a huge amount of money.
If a seeded player does not reach the level of a key player before contract renewal, his contract will generally not be renewed.
Especially the older you get, the less likely it is.
of course.
In order to avoid missing out on late bloomers, HERO Tennis Club has given the general managers of each branch the right to report to a higher level.
However, the probability of this happening is generally very small.
"What's that little guy's name?"
Without blaming the other party, Brand turned on the computer and started asking.
"My name is Tokugawa Kazuya."
"It's someone from Neon."
next moment.
The person on the other end of the phone answered quickly.
"Neon people?"
"It's quite interesting."
"Please send me a set of his information via email."
Perhaps it was because of Kitagawa, or perhaps it was because of Genichirō Sanada, Seiichi Yukimura, Keigo Atobe, Kunimitsu Tezuka and others.
Brand actually became somewhat interested in Tokugawa Kazuya.
of course.
Interest is interest, but it still needs to be considered to a certain extent before further arrangements can be made.
......
HERO Tennis Club UK branch here.
Although it was almost dusk.
But there are still people training here.
I saw a young man with black hair and a slightly heroic look constantly waving his racket on a court.
Even if the tennis ball shot from the opposite serving machine is extremely fast.
But he still caught it accurately.
Every gesture and movement reveals a strong confidence and awe-inspiring temperament.
"Pity."
"When Tokugawa Kazuya was five years old, he joined the British branch of the HERO Tennis Club and went on to win consecutive matches."
"But I lost to others during the evaluation and missed the chance to become a key player in the division."
"We even encountered the renewal point..."
A middle-aged man in coaching uniform looked at Tokugawa Kazuya who was still practicing hard on the court and couldn't help but sigh with regret.
"It's not bad luck."
"I can only say that I've been in the tennis club for too long, and the elite training has created a certain degree of shackles in me."
"I couldn't unleash my potential and talent, and that's why things went wrong."
"If I don't renew my contract, I might grow up after some experience outside."
The bald man standing next to him replied solemnly.
As coaches of HERO Tennis Club, their vision is definitely one in a million.
He saw right to the point the problem that Tokugawa Kazuya was facing.
"Right."
"This time, the failure of the rating can be considered a blessing and a curse."
"It brought his problems to the surface."
"Unfortunately, it's still too late."
"If it had been earlier, maybe our branch would have had a seed player who could make it to the headquarters."
He nodded in agreement, sighed and said a few words.
Then he turned around and prepared to walk outside.
"It's not too late."
"The general manager has already contacted Mr. Brand."
"Maybe there will be a chance of a turnaround."
The two of them walked out while talking.
Boom...boom...boom...
Tokugawa Kazuya, who was standing on the court practicing, lowered his arms.
He stared at the tennis ball rolling on the ground with heavy eyes.
I couldn't help but pursed my lips.
He heard everything the two coaches said.
"The shackles brought about by elite training?"
"Or has my potential really reached its limit?"
Bending down to pick up the tennis ball, Tokugawa Kazuya couldn't help but mutter to himself.
"call......"
His slightly deep eyes stared at the tennis ball in his hand for a long time.
Then he turned and walked towards the locker room.
Just the next moment.
"Tokugawa!"
"There's good news."
"You can renew your contract!"
A sturdy man ran out of the office area with a look of joy on his face.
He spoke to Tokugawa Kazuya very happily.
The moment the words fell.
"Ok?"
Tokugawa Kazuya was stunned.
"It's like this."
"The boss gave you a chance."
"As long as you become a regular player in the U-17 training camp."
"You can directly become a seeded player at headquarters and enjoy a training intensity that regular players can hardly access."
"But before that, you need to continue practicing hard."
"Wait for the boss to tell me specifically which country's U-17 training camp it is."
