My Name is Kobe Bryant

Chapter 140 The Arrival of 1997

"System, use the ability to view the function."

"Kobe Bryant, basketball player, position matching degree PG100%, SG100%, SF100%, PF85%, C75%."

"A in physical fitness, S in layup skills, S in dunk skills, S+ in mid-range shooting skills, A+ in three-point skills, S- in ball handling skills, A in organizational skills, and S in defensive skills."

"Current physical condition, average, low risk of injury."

"The current time is January 1, 1997, the main task life achievement is S+ (the current achievement is B-)"

"Achievements are upgraded, and the reward package is waiting to be collected."

"Sideline 1: Win Rookie of the Year Award"

"Spur 2: Buckle Shaquille O'Neal"

"Subject 3: Purchase a courtyard house in Beijing"

Both physical fitness and three-pointers have improved, which Kobe can clearly feel in the game. A-level physical fitness means that facing most of the league's backcourt players and even forward players will not suffer too much.

The improvement of physical fitness is very fast, and the speed, endurance, and jumping are only slightly inferior to the peak of the previous life. It’s just that the strength is still two levels behind. The improvement of strength still needs time to accumulate. Not surprisingly, Kobe’s physical fitness will not improve in a short period of time. Next, he will need to work hard. The strength of athletes is generally around 25 years old. will reach the peak. But Kobe’s training methods in this life are more scientific and systematic. Kobe estimates that his strength will reach the height of his previous life within 2 years, and there may be a chance to reach a higher level in a few years!

Life achievement has also entered B- from C+, which is really not easy. Kobe thinks this is probably the most difficult thing to improve. You must know that Kobe has gone through the NBA draft in the past six months, beating Houston and the Bulls. If it weren't for this 55 points, I don't know when and what month I would be able to upgrade. When will the next upgrade be? Get the championship? How difficult it must be to get the S+ achievement, Kobe is having a headache.

Hard honors perhaps?

The branch mission has also been put on hold for a long time, and Kobe has not found a chance to dunk O'Neal in recent games. Instead, after eBay's 3 million US dollars arrives in the account, you can consider investing in real estate. It's just that you have to invest in Los Angeles first, otherwise you won't have much money after deducting nearly half of the tax.

Compared with his worth of hundreds of millions of dollars in his previous life, Kobe is simply a pauper now.

"Receive gifts."

"The host opens the gift bag."

"Get a bottle of recovery potion."

"Recovery Potion: Allows athletes to recover from all injuries in the shortest possible time."

nice one! Kobe was pleasantly surprised that the system still has such a good thing. You must know that injuries are the biggest opponents of athletes, and how many talented superstars are ruined by injuries. If it weren't for that Achilles tendon rupture, Kobe might still be at his peak for several years!

Worth ten thousand gold! Even if Kobe was given 10 million Kobes for this potion, he wouldn't want to change it!

It seems that we have to hurry up and do side missions! Hurry up to improve your life achievements.

"Boss, why did you take a bottle of drink?" Fisher put on his earphones and hopped into the locker room, seeing Kobe staring at the bottled drink in his hand.

"It's okay, little fish, let's go to training."

"Ah??? The team training just ended!!!"

"Extra 3 hours of practice."

"That's not the way to go." Fisher wanted to cry in front of Kobe, but if he knew it, he would secretly pack up his things and slip away.

Many stories happened in 1996. Jordan led the Bulls to 72 wins, the best record in history. Almost all the awards such as scoring champion, MVP, FMVP, best defensive player, and best coach were won by the Bulls. Won his fourth championship.

Jordan signed an annual salary of 30.14 million U.S. dollars, and the team exceeded the salary cap. It was the only case in NBA history that a player's personal annual salary was higher than the salary cap.

O'Neal traveled west to Los Angeles and played the best performance of his career with the No. 13 rookie Kobe. Won the league player of the month for December.

Barkley teamed up with Houston, and Dameng and Glider formed a new generation of Big Three.

Mourning signed a seven-year, $105 million contract with the Heat, and Juwan Howard later signed a seven-year, $105 million contract with the Washington Bullets.

Uncle Mu, Payton, Dameng, Houston, Miller, Rodman, Stockton and many other stars have tested the free market, some renewed their contracts, and some found new clubs.

The 96 golden generation entered the league's attention, and Kobe and Iverson scored 55 points and 49 points first. In this star-studded era, he carved his mark.

All kinds of major events are frequently staged, and all kinds of legends will be passed down forever.

Kobe is gradually becoming the protagonist of this turbulent era. Maybe he was only an important supporting role in the league in 1996, but what about 97 years?

The spotlight flashed, and on January 1, Kobe officially announced the establishment of Mamba Sports at a press conference.

If it had been a few days earlier, it might not have caused a sensation.

but now? The youngest Mr. 55 points, the only one in 30 years, a talented outside linebacker destined to become a superstar.

His every move will attract a lot of attention from Vanity Fair in Los Angeles, not to mention such an important thing as the establishment of a sneaker brand.

The reporter's long guns and short guns, this battle is not lost to any superstar in the industry.

"Mr. Bryant, this is your first public appearance after scoring 55 points. May I ask how you feel about scoring 55 points?"

"Iverson is a very respectable opponent. My performance has improved in the confrontation with him. Thanks to Coach Harris for his support and my teammates for feeding the ball. Without them, I would not have scored 55 points."

"Today is the press conference of Mamba Sports under your name. What do you want to say about this brand?"

"We will subvert the entire sports product industry! I will make basketball shoes affordable for every child, and I will make basketball shoes the trend of the times!"

Kobe's remark made the reporters in the audience excited, and it has a selling point!

In this era, sneakers are exclusive to the rich. Few kids in the slums can afford a hundred-dollar sneaker.

Kobe's remarks may offend a group of people! A large number of sneaker manufacturers and players will not be happy!

As long as you are a good person, we are all capitalist vampires!

Offend? When Kobe acted in his life, when was he afraid of offending others?

Kobe’s remarks were made after deliberation and discussion with Meg Whitman. The profit of sneakers is very large. In the future, Mamba Sports will have three product lines. Imitate a series of operations of Nike in later generations.

The first is professional sneakers for sports people, function and safety must be guaranteed. The price is consistent with most products on the market.

The second meeting will be trendy sneakers for trendy people, injecting basketball culture and absorbing the design concepts of some good-looking shoes from later generations, and increasing the price in limited quantities.

The third is cheap sneakers, and will find another player to endorse. Be sure to be a down-to-earth player! Prices and profits are down! Sales are on the rise! The greater role is to open up the market and shape word of mouth.

The three product lines do not interfere with each other, and the marketing is completely different. They must occupy the market of each sales group!

Especially China, where there is a huge market.
