At the request of a friend, let's talk about how Bayern became the king of the South.
To understand this question, we must first understand the situation before Bayern Munich became the king of the South. Founded in 1900, this club is definitely a long-established club. However, in Munich, there is a football club that was founded earlier than Bayern, and that is Munich 1860. Since they are brothers in the same city, there will naturally be competition. In the first six decades of the last century, Munich 1860 was the more dominant team. This can be seen from the 1963-64 season, when the Bundesliga was first created, when Munich 1860 qualified for the Bundesliga, while Bayern hovered outside the first division.
Since Munich 1860 at this stage is the more competitive team. Then, the local young talents in Munich will naturally regard Munich 1860 as their first choice. If this situation continues, it will undoubtedly create an embarrassing situation of "the strong are stronger, and the weak are weaker". At that time, when player transfers were not too frequent, Bayern had to break this situation if they wanted to fight against Munich 1860 and attract the best football talent in the region. Otherwise, there is no way to talk about the rise.
Just when Bayern was pondering how to break the game, a seemingly inconspicuous slap in the face became an opportunity for Bayern to rise.
The unlucky guy who was slapped was none other than Beckenbauer in his youth. At that time, he was playing for the youth team in Munich 1906, but due to the financial difficulties encountered by the club, it was difficult to continue to run the youth team, and Beckenbauer had to consider changing the club. Beckenbauer, a native of Munich, once regarded the youth team of Munich 1860 as his first choice.
However, before Beckenbauer officially joined the Munich 1860 youth team. Still a player for the Munich 1906 youth team, he actually met the Munich 1860 youth team in the U14 regional league. In this game, which was not a matter of victory or defeat, Beckenbauer showed excellent ball skills that made his opponent unguardable.
Probably feeling that they couldn't hold their face, the players of the Munich 1860 youth team used rough moves to block Beckenbauer many times in the game, and even slapped Beckenbauer.
No matter what country or region you are in, the slap is extremely humiliating. With Beckenbauer's self-esteem, he naturally couldn't swallow this breath. He did not hesitate to give up on his intention to join the Munich 1860 youth team. As for Beckenbauer's choice of the next home, it is Bayern.

Everyone should know what happened next. After Beckenbauer defected to Bayern, he grew into a historical superstar. It is with the help of Beckenbauer that Bayern have been very competitive in both the Bundesliga and European competitions, winning many trophies. It was only then that Bayern showed the potential to become the king of the South.
Looking back at this history, this slap in the face is definitely an opportunity for Bayern's rise. Without this slap, Beckenbauer would most likely miss Bayern and even play for Munich 1860. Then, Bayern's glory in the seventies of the last century will definitely be greatly reduced.
Of course, a certain generation of excellent players alone will not keep Bayern competitive for a long time. The management of the club is obviously more important to the club. And Bayern's opportunity to get a top manager is just like the incident of Beckenbauer's slap back then, full of chance and luck.
In 1979, Bayern fierce Hoeness's knee injury became more and more serious, and he had to make the decision to retire. Because of Hoeness's outstanding achievements as a player, Bayern simply recruited Hoeness, who was only 27 years old at the time, into the management.
I have to admit that Hoeness's operational talent is really exaggerated. When he was a player, he knew how to make money for the club. Thanks to his personal relationship with automaker Deutz, Hoeness was able to secure a sponsorship contract for Bayern while he was still playing.
As for Hoeness, who entered the management, it became even more dazzling. He took the initiative to absorb the operating experience of baseball and American football, and opened up a wide range of financial channels by selling peripheral products, so that Bayern Club got rid of the miserable life of relying on tickets to make money in the past.
It is under the operation of Hoeness that Bayern's economy has gradually improved, laying the most solid foundation for the healthy development in the future. According to Beckenbauer, Hoeness couldn't have done any better.
It is worth mentioning that Hoeness's goodness is also reflected in luck. The Bayern bigwig was killed in an accident such as a plane crash in 1982, and all three people in his group were killed, but only Hoeness saved his life.
However, no matter how talented a manager is, it will take a certain amount of time to turn a profit, even if Hoeness, whose luck is on his side. In the first few years of Hoeness's entry into management, Bayern were stretched thin on funds and had to sell their signature players in exchange for funds. And the Bayern signature player who was put on the shelf was the famous Rummenigge.
With Rummenigge's strength and status, he should be sold at a high price. It's just that the football circle is so big, and Bayern's financial problems will naturally be known to other clubs. Against this backdrop, the vast majority of buyers are frantically lowering prices.
At this juncture, the Serie A giants Inter Milan stepped forward and bought Rummenigge at a reasonable price, solving Bayern's urgent need. A few years later, it was Inter Milan who took the initiative and spent a lot of money to bring in Mateus and Bremen, once again providing Bayern with the real money that Bayern desperately needed.
Inter's help, for Bayern, is tantamount to a send-off. Therefore, even after so many years, Bayern is still grateful to Inter Milan, and the two sides often benefit each other in the transfer market. Everyone knows that Bayern's friendship with Inter is as solid as a rock.
In this way, Bayern survived the worst crisis and looked forward to the turnaround brought by Hoeness. After that, Bayern's financial situation is excellent, there is no need to worry about survival, coupled with the discerning eyes of Hoeness and other high-level executives in the transfer market, the club is almost invincible, just wait for opponents to make mistakes. There is no suspense about becoming the king of Nanda, it's just a matter of time......
