NBA: Start with 2 billion, buy the Knicks

Chapter 122: Only know how to make money and pick up girls? The ultimate amateur! Get out of New York!

aka the little entrepreneurial prince's week in Tianchao made these people feel like they were dreaming.

What is entrepreneurship? This is what entrepreneurship is!

This is also a week that changes the history of Chinese basketball.

He himself would not have known it, but later his continuous movement from north to south was regarded by entrepreneurs as a divine journey. This is the god of investment!

No investigation at all, just talk directly, and everything will be absorbed in one go!!!!

This is because Jiang Chao only did things that were urgently beneficial to the team.

As for the film and television investment, musician investment, and a bunch of Rebus in Zhongguancun... Jiang Chao may be interested, but he doesn't have the time and energy.

Everyone discovered his trip to China, and it was all for the team.

Everything serves the team, even if it is to make money, it is operated with the team operation that he is good at as the core.

Just like she can only bring Jiang Shuying here now, if he is more lustful, oh no, if he is more caring, it would be good to go to the province and bring Zhang Junmi. This is also a master of the law group of the Institute of Economics, and he has seen her

Everyone who has participated in the "Law of the Jungle" variety show knows how capable this woman is.

It's just that he doesn't have time to go that far, and he still has to apply for a pass. If he were more serious, he would go to La Naza, Reba, Chaoyue, etc. now to develop a wave.

Anyone who actively wants to lick his milk tea is really disdainful.

"Career is the most important thing! Career is the most important thing!"

Jiang Chao finished writing the song he had been writing since San Antonio on the plane. He still has many things to do, and this is just the beginning.

…

New York.

Manhattan.

During this window period, Jiang Chao’s investment plan came to a successful conclusion.

Lao Lu took the heavy investment agreement and placed it in the office building rented by Liu Yan. Along with him were Lai Shixian and a lot of other geniuses.

Jiang Chao signed one by one, and his own "Eighteen Arhat" was completed.

The next time is to decorate the offices of Chaoshen Sports, Chaoshen (hoop) Forum, and the International Edition of Basketball Pioneer Newspaper, and officially put them into operation.

The character "Super" written in cursive script of Tai Chi Fish in flowing clouds and flowing water is hung up.

Mr. Meng personally came to check the international edition of the Basketball Pioneer. It is just a branch in the office building, and the headquarters is placed together with the "International Novel Newspaper" created by the group of international students.

Chaoshen Sports is headed by General Manager Lai Shixian, and top student Jiang Shuying serves as Financial Director.

Chaoshen Forum is led by Mr. Yang, who is responsible for transporting Hupu Forum posts from China and integrating them with the resources and content of "Basketball Pioneer News".

Of course, one of the biggest difficulties is the sales channels in the United States, and the other is how to promote it well.

Since the regular season has not started yet, Jiang Chao's side is a little weak.

But at this time, a part-time support came. After Scarlett Johansson returned to New York after filming the movie, she happily pushed Jiang Chao down in the office and knelt under his desk to play with him several times. After seeing the trouble, she used

My old shoulders, no, my cunning lobbying ability.

Forcibly, some familiar idol stars and film and television producers from the One-57 Building came to promote Jiang Chao.

For example, the newspaper in Lawrence's latest poster is "Basketball Pioneer International Edition".

Another example is that most of the sneakers she wears in her selfies on Facebook and Twitter are Anta. Next to them are the English letters "legendary!" written by herself. She is slowly building momentum for Jiang Chao!

Lai Shixian was troubled by offline channels in the United States, as well as renting stores and factories to stack future goods. Scarlett's local "big.mum" conversational skills in New York were all solved one by one.

"Is it so powerful..." Jiang Chao clicked his tongue after hearing Liu Yan's report in the office. This level of domineering is worthy of his widowed sister.

"That one is awesome too! Humph!"

With Liu Yan's intelligence, of course she knew why a beautiful actress with such big breasts and big buttocks helped Jiang Chao. She couldn't help but become cold-blooded, and her body hardness increased by 90%.

"Are you jealous!" Jiang Chao pulled her tall waist into his arms.

"No!"

"Yes! Let's go, I'll take you on a cruise today."

For this situation, Jiang Chao's choice is to satisfy the woman and solve everything. He has eaten Scarlett's meat recently, so naturally he is provocative to the vegetarian food by eating it in one bite.

He took Liu Yan for a walk along the Gold Coast in a small boat and pointed out an open space among the buildings:

"In the future, I will definitely build a building that belongs to us here!"

"Wow? It's impossible, Super God Building?" Liu Yan stroked her hair with a look of disbelief.

"That's right, we own every building, so we don't have to rent office buildings anymore!"

The breeze blew Jiang Chao's hair, and Liu Yan saw the sea of ​​stars in his eyes. Such a man was indeed not something she could have alone. It would be too luxurious.

i love you always,everything is nothing.

Thinking of this, she felt relieved, relaxed her mind and body, chatted and joked with Jiang Chao:

"You're bragging, are you so arrogant? You just got up now."

"Okay, question me!"

Jiang Chao smiled and ruffled her hair, and the two chased each other on the yacht. Finally, they hugged each other tiredly and returned to the room on the deck to relax physically and mentally.

"Is it exciting?"

"Stimulate!"

"I have a jug of wine, which is enough to soothe the wind and dust. Can you try it?" Jiang Chao took out a jug of wine from his bag and poured a glass for Liu Yan. It was getting late, and the two of them watched the sunset and tasted the wine.

"I also had two or three friends who kept the door open every day."

The two clinked glasses, Liu Yan blushed, Jiang Chao smoothed her hair again, her clear and tipsy face leaned in Jiang Chao's arms, and fell asleep.

…

Jiang Chao and Liu Yan have been running around at both ends these days. As Liu Yan's personal secretary, she cleans up Jiang Chao's offices in Chaoshen Sports and the chairman's office of "Basketball Pioneer International Edition".

And why Liu Yan said she has two or three friends? She is also happy that she has a new friend, that is Jiang Shuying...

As for Jiang Shuying, because they are the same age, they are completely beyond Jiang Chao's self-confessed workplace rivalry. The two hit each other instantly. Even before getting on the yacht, Liu Yan asked if she wanted to call Jiang Jiang. This made Jiang Chao

Caught off guard, she refused before the time came.

The two top students, Liu Yan and Jiang Jiang, communicated with each other and together they gave Scarlett an estimated price for the factory and store they had negotiated. They also took the initiative to help Jiang Shuying move her luggage into the employee apartment. The first time they blamed Jiang Chao was because he didn't bring the sports car.

Bring it over and help Jiang Jiang carry his luggage.

At that time, Jiang Chao was the happiest when he saw this scene. He thought, would this be convenient for him in the future?

Jiang Shuying did the company's financial statements perfectly, as well as the design and layout of several companies and the purchase of office supplies, making everyone's office warm and comfortable. She is worthy of the woman who plays Jiang Lai.

Lai Shixian, Mr. Yang and others are all stupid.

The women around Jiang Chao are all gods, they are too strong!

This allows them to have no worries at all, and they can just do scientific research and market research in the United States with peace of mind!

…

As the regular season window approaches, Madison Square Garden Arena is gradually becoming more lively.

In the future, most of the time in this arena will belong to basketball!

That day, after Jiang Chao heard that Curry and Harden were both at the training facility, he came directly to inspect them.

Harden is always practicing his singles with the ball, and the iPad next to him is filled with videos of Kobe Bryant.

In the other half, Curry refused to admit defeat and practiced three-pointers crazily. As he practiced, he almost reached the logo and made it more difficult for himself.

Ah Lian shaved his head and practiced one-step jump shots on the rim hanging next to him. He wore knee pads on his knees according to Jiang Chao's request.

"It has to be a flat-headed one."

Beverley, don't look crazy. He is looking for Millsby, who is the most accurate free throw shooter, to take a free throw. He is very serious.

Jiang Chao watched with great interest. He lifted the ball from the ground with his foot, made a steady shot from outside the three-point line, and shot out of the frame.

"Hey, boss, one more shot!" Curry saw this and hit Jiang Chao from behind. Jiang Chao caught the ball and shrugged, lifted his suit up a little, raised his hand and shot again. The ball drew a wonderful arc and hit!

"Good-shoot!"

"You do a logo-shoot!"

Jiang Chao is not as muscular as these guys, but he is still good at shooting and passing. He acted as Curry's trainer. He passed a long pass to Curry who was moving to the top arc logo. Curry raised his hand before

A three-pointer, directly through the net!

"Okay, are you finished practicing?"

"Score 10 more shots and finish!"

"Okay, practice hard."

Strange~~

Curry couldn't help scratching his head when he saw Jiang Chao hesitating to speak.

Off the field, the coaches and bosses warmly greeted Jiang Chao, who rarely came to the training hall, but they didn't know what Jiang Chao was coming to inspect this time, and they felt that Jiang Chao was more reserved than them.

Jiang Chao is actually a drunkard who doesn't care about drinking.

He came here just to talk to Kuha about the sneaker contract.

He knows that the key to whether his superb sports can take off lies in these two people.

With these two people joining, it would be trivial for anyone else.

Originally, Lai Shixian suggested signing Chinese stars first.

But Jiang Chao knew that Yao Yi was an insider and had never been good at selling shoes. These two guards were really good at selling shoes.

Moreover, he didn't want to pay liquidated damages to Reebok and Nike. Lai Shixian felt that Jiang Chao was rich and powerful. Jiang Chao knew that he didn't have much food left, so he could just sign the contract when it expired.

Now he is no longer the man who spent 1.88 billion on the Knicks at the beginning.

One of the two, Kuha, has explosive scoring and the other has a coquettish style of play. They will both get big sneaker contracts in the future and their sales will be in the top 10 of the NBA.

Curry single-handedly supports Under Armor's basketball shoe market. If Harden's shoes weren't made a bit ugly by Adidas, they wouldn't have sold less than Nike's flashy shoes.

Therefore, he must get the two of them in advance before signing long-term contracts. If he doesn't get these two, it's even more difficult to get the other teams, and the brand plan will be 90% ruined at the beginning.

Not to mention sneakers, the jerseys of the two and their accessories have been ranking second or third in the sales list for seven or eight years.

The first one is of course James. With Kobe’s retirement and Nike’s promotion, his products are almost at the level of sweeping everything.

So things from backcourt players are still easier to sell.

Thinking of this, Jiang Chao no longer hesitated and shouted to Harden on the other side:

"Hey, James Harden, come here."

Harden waved to Jiang Chao, and D'Antoni, who was on the baseline, smiled and said: "He still needs to practice for another 10 minutes to score points."

At this time, coach assistant D'Antoni is teaching Harden how to break through and distribute the ball in a three-point one-line style. Harden does not look at anyone when passing the ball, just for the bottom corner where the mustache is standing.

Jiang Chao thought to himself that this would be Tucker's exclusive sweet spot for future generations, and he didn't know which Knicks player is suitable for this position now. For a player who can play with Harden in this position, his statistics will increase dramatically.

"Okay, make sure to rest. Where is your manager?"

"In Brooklyn, they don't come to the arena."

"Okay, then when you finish training, call them over."

"OK!"

Harden didn't think much and entered a selfless training state.

It is impossible for Jiang Chao to really disturb their training. This kind of selfless training state is difficult to find. Harden has been sweating profusely all day. If he is disturbed now, Harden will not be able to control him at night.

Looking at everyone sweating, he asked Downey Jr. to take all the protective gear from Chaoshen Sports to the sidelines. Although Nike sponsored it for free, it now gave players one more choice. They could choose Jiang Chao's own protective gear.

protective gear.

The young marshal and the others looked at this unseen sign strangely, and the irritable old man Clifford almost shouted, "Don't fool me with some brand-name junk protective gear." Finally, he stopped in time when he saw Downey Jr. making crazy gestures.

Jiang Chao smiled and shook his head. Sure enough, he still had star power.

If Duncan, who has bad knees, wears this knee pad, who would dare to call it a no-name brand?

If this finger guard was worn by Kobe Bryant, regardless of the black Mamba logo or any other logo, 10 million units of the same model would have been sold worldwide.

This is the most annoying and unchangeable thing about selling sporting goods in the basketball circle.

This circle is more serious than the fan circle. Some fans only use sports products of their idol players.

No matter how good your publicity is, no matter how high-quality your work is, I have never used my Danzi, Kemei and Zhan, it’s rubbish!

You must know that in fact, all protective gear brands except Balfen are the same, and their technical content is not high at all. Medical protective gear is much more technologically advanced than these.

But why do everyone only buy protective gear produced by sports brands? One is that they look good, and the other is that these headgear, wristbands and the like look good on the stars.

What is sold is a brand premium.

Jiang Chao played the ball for a while and did not interrupt the players' training. He went back to the office and lay down on the sofa to recover his energy after the recent battle with his widowed sister, Liu Yan.

In the training hall, Coach Clifford quietly pulled over Downey Jr.:

"What's going on? Didn't the boss go to his hometown for a vacation when he went to China?"

"Don't you know? He went to start a business, and I went too."

"How did I know? We are in the training hall every day..."

"Then let me tell you..."

"There are also these protective gears, which are really no worse than Nike. Players can try them out."

"Made, Downey Jr., didn't you tell me earlier, I have to carry the boss's things with me every day! Bring me another set, change it and wear it!" Ibaka came over and put on an orange wristband directly, "Super"

To them, Chinese characters are full of mystery and an inexplicable sense of trend.

…

Liu Yan, who was in the next office, saw Jiang Chao's depressed look, so she came over to rub Jiang Chao's shoulders and legs, and at the same time wanted to throw the New York Times on the table directly into the trash can.

"Wait, why are you throwing it away?" Jiang Chao squinted his eyes and smiled.

Liu Yan put her hands on her hips angrily: "Unscrupulous media, just don't read it!"

"Let me see."

"Don't be angry. Don't vent your anger on a weak woman like me."

Jiang Chao smiled and pinched her soft cheek:

"How could that happen? Boss, I am immune to all poisons."

At the end of the month, Anta acquired the trademark use rights and franchise rights of Italian high-end sports brand Fila for a total price of approximately HK$600 million.

really.

The New York media started spraying again.

The international financial news page at the beginning was quite normal, with the following words in the corner:

Anta acquired Fila's trademark use rights and franchise rights for a total price of approximately HK$600 million.

This high-end sports brand opened the door for Anta to invest in and acquire multiple brands.

In fact, in the China Financial News, the low-key registration of Chaoshen Sports affiliated with Anta also appeared in the financial news and became a joint venture brand of Anta.

Because the general manager was written by Lai Shixian, Ding Shizhong's brother-in-law, it didn't attract much attention. Everyone in the sneaker circle knew that Jiang Chao had opened a sports products company. After all, he spent a lot of money to poach those middle-level cadres, which made them itchy. The capital was really

Do whatever you want.

But the fandom hasn't spread widely yet.

But Li Ning and the others were more confused about where Anta could get so much spare money to acquire Fila?

Perhaps we will only know this after the first joint press conference between Anta and Chaoshen Sports.

But after the Americans registered the company with Jiang Chao, they immediately started complaining when they saw that the legal representative was Jiang Chao.

"You only know how to make money and pick up girls? The ultimate amateur! Get out of New York!"

"How can you make this kind of money? Do you know how to do it?"

Seeing that his trip in China was exposed, Jiang Chao was already prepared:

"Do these people care about me so much? They are afraid that I will make money."

The sports pages were very unfriendly to him.

After all... Jiang Chao is going to destroy the foundation of the New York Times.

"The new owner of the Knicks starts a business to build a sports brand and registers to operate a new newspaper"

What's disgusting is that the name of the new newspaper, "International Pioneer," is not even mentioned, and it seems that it doesn't want to promote Jiang Chao.

Jiang Chao took advantage of the popularity and posted a message on his Twitter @New York Times:

"Remember the name of the newspaper clearly, "International Pioneer". First-class basketball news, comments, and current affairs hot topics are all in "International Pioneer."

Anyway, in an era where traffic is the main thing, it doesn’t matter if you don’t get sprayed. The important thing is to promote it. Thank you for lending me the east wind. First, spread the reputation of the newspaper. Coupled with the real and high-quality content in it, tall buildings will rise from the ground.

It is necessary to rely on this step by step to defeat this "traditional tyrant".

Liu Yan punched Jiang Chao on the shoulder a few times with her pink fist, and sighed: "Jiang Chao, your mentality is invincible."

"Come, let's make a cup of tea, some melon seeds, and take a look."

You want me to get out of New York, right?

Then I really want to see how you break your defense after knowing I make money.
