Injuries in basketball only make me stronger

In this era, the mainstream mobile phone is still "Nokia". Lian Feng's family situation is good, the mobile phone he uses is Nokia, and the bags he carries are Adidas and Nike.

After the finals, he gave Nike and Adidas bags to his classmates, while he changed into an Anta bag.

2005 was an extraordinary year for Chinese sports brands. Many brands began to transform. If Lian Feng remembered correctly, Li Ning completed its listing on Nasdaq last year, and Anta will probably be listed in the year after next.

Because Anta has been pursuing the strategy of "surrounding cities from rural areas" before. Although its cash flow and benefits are very good, it has also established a low-end impression in people's minds. Lian Feng remembers that it was about the past few years that Anta began to change its strategy. The final step

It has gradually become the number one sports brand in China and the third in the world.

Anta's goal in the past few years is to surpass Adidas and become the world's second largest company in 2021. Unfortunately, this goal in 2021 is still a little short of...

But it’s already great!

After all, Lian Feng is not a real young boy, and he will not be irrationally obsessed with so-called foreign brands. As long as it can fit things like sports bags.

After coming out of the hospital, Lian Feng received a phone call. He picked it up and saw that it was a high school classmate he hadn't contacted for a long time, named Zhuomei.

Some doubts.

He completely inherited the memory of the former Lian Feng.

Zhuomei had very good grades and went to study abroad after graduating from high school. Since then, she has had no contact. Why would she call at this time?

Lian Feng answered the phone.

"Hello?"

"Old classmate, do you still remember me?"

A sweet voice came from the phone receiver.

Four years have passed since college. Before his rebirth, Lian Feng had somewhat forgotten Zhuomei's appearance. He only remembered that she didn't seem to talk much, and because she was taller among girls, she always sat in the back rows. Every day he saw her, she was quiet.

land

So Zhuomei greeted Lian Feng so enthusiastically, which really surprised Lian Feng.

"How could it be! Have you returned to China?"

"Hehe. Yes, I've been back for half a year. I saw you on the sports news. Congratulations. I didn't expect that a classmate in the same classroom would become a national champion!"

"Ha...it's just a college student..."

"Anyway, it's awesome! By the way, are you free today? I have something I want to talk to you about in person."

Lian Feng couldn't help but be even more confused. We haven't met each other for such a long time, what could she do to him?

After thinking about it, he was ready to find any reason to refuse. Just kidding, he had just obtained the silver skill and was about to try it out. How could he waste his time on a woman?

At this moment, Zhuomei suddenly said: "Don't refuse! It's a very important thing, it may be a major event that changes your life!"

Suddenly, Lian Feng's appetite was whetted, but he became vigilant. It was really abnormal for a classmate who had not been in contact for a long time to suddenly become so enthusiastic.

"Um...I have something else to do this afternoon."

In line with the principle that doing more is worse than doing less, Lian Feng still chose to refuse.

"Oh, what's going on! How can I eat you when a girl invites you? It's really an important matter and I can't explain it clearly on the phone. No matter what, I'll wait for you at Xiangliang Cafe at three o'clock in the afternoon.

.If you don’t come, why don’t you wait!”

After saying that, Zhuomei hung up the phone.

Lian Feng reluctantly put down the phone. After thinking about it, he felt that he was a bit too mother-in-law. Why not just meet him? What else could happen in public?

In the afternoon, Lian Feng arrived at the coffee shop on time. As soon as he entered the room, he saw a tall and beautiful woman with her hair tied up waving to him.

I can't help it, I'm too tall and I'll always attract attention wherever I go.

I wouldn't have received this kind of treatment in my previous life. This kind of small perspective of the mountains... it's really great.

Zhuomei put on exquisite makeup and had a sweet smile on her face. She seemed to attach great importance to this meeting. It must be said that the experience of studying abroad alone has completely faded her student spirit.

Lian Feng sat down and said straight to the point: "Long time no see! What's going on?"

Zhuomei said angrily: "You are really a straight man! Let's chat for a while! Waiter, take the coffee order."

Lian Feng remained silent, ordered coffee, and chatted with Zhuomei for a while. He felt very bored. Rather than dating a woman, he would rather be sweating on the court at this time.

Zhuomei sighed and said helplessly: "Forget it, you are such a stupid person. Let's get down to business."

Lian Feng finally regained his energy: "Yeah."

When she mentioned this, Zhuomei's expression became solemn, she took a business card from her pocket and handed it over, saying, "Let me introduce myself again! CAA China's intern agent, Zhuomei!"

Lian Feng took the business card doubtfully, looked at it, and shook his head: "What is CAA?"

Zhuomei laughed: "It's normal that you don't know this. To put it simply, we are a brokerage company, but it is a little different from ordinary brokerage companies... Let's put it this way, there are only two kinds of brokerage companies in the world, one is CAA

, one is other brokerage companies.”

"oh……"

"You must not know how powerful our company is. Let's put it this way, at the Oscars ceremony, more than half of the directors and actors will thank our company, because most of them are contracted employees of CAA. Anyone can grow up in it

Find your entertainment idol on the list of contracted stars. The career fortunes of more than two-thirds of Hollywood's top movie stars and directors are affected by CAA. The box office of films directed by directors contracted by CAA accounts for more than half of the global box office, and this figure is higher than that of other agencies

The total number of awards. Among the 8 Oscar awards, the awards won by our company’s artists are the total of the second to fifth companies in the agency industry.”

Lian Feng listened patiently to Zhuomei's words before asking: "Well... so what? I don't want to be a big star... Of course, the main reason is because I can't be one."

Zhuomei shook her head seriously.

"I'm looking for you this time because of a plan we have."

"what's the plan?"

Zhuomei said: "Our company is the largest entertainment agency, but of course we are not satisfied with the entertainment industry! The strategy of the company's top management is to enter the sports industry in the past two years!"

As soon as Zhuomei mentioned this, Lian Feng suddenly remembered a piece of news. It seemed that around 2012, James announced his withdrawal from a certain agency... That company seemed to be CAA.

After all, he was a coach in his previous life and knew little about business operations. His attention was focused on basketball. It was normal not to know this. But Lian Feng also understood how much influence an agency has on players and even the entire league.

The NBA is essentially a business.

Lian Feng thought for a while and asked: "I'm just an ordinary college student...what do you want from me?"

Zhuomei said: "We have a plan, and it is also an attempt. I will tell you the plan in detail later."

Lian Feng took a sip of coffee. He ordered sugar-free coffee, but he was miserable.

Put down the cup and asked: "Why do you have to wait a while? Let's do it now."

Lian Feng has never been in love in his two lifetimes. He shrugged, with a tell-you-or-don't-tell expression.

Zhuomei sighed before speaking.

"We plan to sign a group of players in China who have the potential to enter the NBA!"

Lian Feng suddenly laughed: "Do you think I have potential?"

He really does.
