NBA: Start with 2 billion, buy the Knicks

Chapter 204: West Lake, a place full of stories

By the West Lake.

It is good when the water is shining and the sky is clear, but the mountains are also strange when they are empty and covered with rain.

The two of them watched the boats rowing on the lake, toasting and drinking.

Jiang Chao stood up and sincerely shook hands with this wise middle-aged man, who will also have the most users in the future. It can be called the handshake of the century.

Jiang Chao’s core team is getting more support!

"Lao Lu, draft a contract and fax it over."

The two signed a contract by the West Lake. No one would refuse the opportunity to cooperate and progress with a young and enterprising boss.

And Zhang Xiaolong also loves basketball, or he loves everything. The reason why the software WeChat has become popular in later generations is that all kinds of people like to use it, and there is content in it that they are interested in. Top talents are like this, tell him

He knows a little bit about everything, can talk about everything, and can absorb infinite knowledge.

At this time, Jiang Chao called Boss Cai to come out together. The three of them walked together on the Su Causeway, watching the moon reflected in the Three Pools and the wind in the courtyard. Boss Cai said many times that his lifelong goal is to buy a basketball team, and he hopes Jiang Chao can help with the NBA.

help.

If Boss Cai, who has studied abroad for many years, is now doing as the locals do, this can be regarded as looking for a relationship with Jiang Chao.

Jiang Chao and Zhang Xiaolong half-jokingly said that it was absolutely fine. How about merging Ali Baba with the future Chaoliao?

Of course, this means that it is absolutely impossible for Ma Yun to hand over the social products that she wants to compete with QQ to Chaoshen Group, because now their users have a natural advantage. If Taobao users want to chat, they must register with Alibaba.

The base is very large.

But in fact, Jiang Chao knows that Alibaba is just that. The limitations of e-commerce mean that it cannot be a platform for ordinary users to chat. There are too many tools for chatting with merchant customer service. He has never seen anyone use Alibaba to pick up girls.

So Jiang Chao said this, it would be perfect if you could directly log in to Alibaba through supertalk. After all, supertalk will have people nearby, drift bottles, mercenaries, and get admitted to college for the first time... ah bah

, that is what Jiang Chao is going to ask Zhang Xiaolong to hire a navy to do in the early stage.

There is no way, the source of capital is sinful. Every software and every website has its own opportunity. This source will gradually be forgotten in the future, but the excellence of the product will lead to continuous growth of users, and that is enough.

Being able to share users with Alibaba is just the icing on the cake.

Although Boss Cai and Zhang Xiaohu both feel that Ali Baba is the only real-time chat software that can compete with QQ, Jiang Chao really wants to say that it is not as good as "YY". Look at the YY Guild, how awesome it is.

Although Ali Baba later forced employees to use this chat only, they all started playing QQ again after work. In Jiang Chao's opinion, it was just right for these hungry urban men and women to play SuperTalk on their way to and from work, so white-collar workers should use it first.

Aren’t Alibaba’s employees having a lot of fun? They have to rely on the stranger chat function that Super Chat will launch in the future.

Of course, the ones who have the most fun playing are the NBA players. The international version of Super Chat will definitely let the players use it first. There are many of them and they are forced to use this extremely private software. It just needs to be gradually promoted.

"Boss Cai, I'm taking Mr. Zhang to Jinmen to join the company. Do you want to go and have fun with me?"

"No, no, I have to go back to Alibaba headquarters to report on my work. I have been playing outside for the past two days and there are a lot of things waiting for me to deal with."

"Okay, see you later, I'll pay close attention to the Nets' stuff."

"Then I can't thank you enough!"

"It's okay. The NBA should be quite turbulent this year. I wish Boss Cai a Happy New Year in advance."

What Jiang Chao knows is that at the end of this year, the owners of the Bobcats and Nets have changed hands, and two stupid bosses are on the line... It would be great if someone from his side can be arranged to come over.

Then Jiang Chao looked at Zhang Xiaolong, who was looking up at Jiang Chao. He saw Jiang Chao talking to Vice President Ali Baba like this, with nothing but admiration in his eyes.

"Let's go to Jinmen. I hope that the number one in Jinmen in the new generation will be Super God!"

Zhang Xiaohu looked at the sparkling lake and adjusted his silver-rimmed glasses:

"No effort will be spared!"

The history of the father of WeChat will also be rewritten, and he will not be known as the vice president of Tongxun and the leader of the scientific research team.

Instead, the story of being with Jiang Chao by the West Lake has been written into various textbooks, Contemporary Mountains and Flowing Waters.

Even taller than Lai Shixian~ later.

There was no way, sports products were too niche. Later, Zhang Xiaohu created micro-business mini-programs for the entire industry, which was awesome.

Of course, the biggest reason is because he works in Asia.

He is the Asia-Pacific spokesperson of Chaoshen Group appointed by Jiang Chao himself, and the Asia-Pacific CEO of Chaoshen Group!

After hearing the news, Mahuatengren was dumbfounded:

"?????"

He had just agreed to his resignation, but he ran away.

Does this count as job hopping??

It doesn't seem to count, because Chaoshen Group doesn't do much Internet business. Is this the rhythm of Zhang Xiaohu's change of career?? He went to develop games and social networking???

"It doesn't matter. Before the year-end bonus is paid, the balance of his salary will be paid as soon as possible."

"Okay Mr. Ma."

Mahuateng would never have thought that the QQ mailbox manager he let go this time would instantly become the biggest rival of QQ chat a year later. The root of his life was directly dug into the main artery by Jiang Chao's poaching!

!

What level of genius does this have?

And the story at the West Lake today is not limited to Zhang Xiaohu.

In the eyes of the media, the lakeside conversation with Cai Chongshen was the strongest, and it also became a good story.

And Miss Tang, with affectionate eyes, watched Jiang Chao and the others walking from a distance on the Baidi Broken Bridge.

She never stepped forward to thank Jiang Chao because she was afraid that the media and fans would think she had done something wrong to Jiang Chao and Boss Cai, but her heart was completely with Jiang Chao.

Is there really such a good man in this world?

Because after serving Jiang Chao today and going to have breakfast on the roadside, she actually received a call from the director of the national division.

This phone call made Tang Wei, who was now at the lowest point in his career, burst into tears!

"Boss Jiang is also in Hangzhou, right?"

"Yes."

"No wonder, he recommended you. Director Ang Lee chose you for a reason. Boss Jiang Chao also recommended you for a reason. Come and audition!"

"good!"

Tang Wei, who watched Jiang Chao leave West Lake, turned around and drove to Jinling with tears in his eyes...

This scenic spot with a long history seems to have magical power. There are so many things in ancient and modern times that are all laughed at~

…

Jinmen & Quanzhou.

Jiang Chao personally took Zhang Xiaohu to the headquarters of Chaoshen Sports Factory and parent company Anta to join the company.

In fact, the headquarters of Chaoshen Group is now in Tianjin. After all, the prices here are not as expensive as in the imperial capital, but it is close, which is quite good. However, Anta's business is more about sneakers, and Zhang Xiaohu has to take care of it.

The future is basically in Tianjin.

On this card, the Asian region has a super god Mr. Zhang.

Then we conducted some business handovers with the branch in the United States, and also let Boss Zhang know some of Jiang Chao's other business matters.

After all, Zhang Xiaohu was also exposed to the sporting goods market and entertainment market for the first time in his life. Although as a CEO, he did not need to have professional knowledge and only had to understand the overall situation, but he still wanted to become professional.

This kind of attitude makes Jiang Chao feel reassured. You must know that being the president of Asia is not easy, and he will be very busy in the future.

While he is not busy now, Zhang Xiaohu's main business is Jiang Chao's newly established "supertalk studio", focusing on researching WeChat first, so that Jiang Chao can use WeChat to chat in the future.

Otherwise, it would be too troublesome. You have to make phone calls to chat with Lao Lu, Messina and others. But in fact, for some things, just leave a message and wait until Super Chat is born.

When they were handing over work, Jiang Chao learned from Ding Shizhong about the sneaker situation that concerned him most.

Because in this aspect, he brought his big brother Anta to make money together, and the big brother would be more excited about making money than him.

Ever since the episode of "Kuroko's Basketball" in which Kagami bought Kuroko shoes was aired, Chaoshen Sports has been out of control. In the past two months, it has been the number one sports brand in Asia in terms of local sales and sales.

Stronger than Neon's local Onitsuka Tiger, ASICS, and Mizuno, they didn't expect such an awesome marketing method. The main reason was that they didn't expect the "Kuroko no Basketball" anime to be so popular, which is much more popular than the manga.

Of course, Tadatoshi Fujimaki, the author of "Kuroko's Basketball", also doesn't like local shoe manufacturers like Neon whose technology has not changed in decades.

Sales in December were second only to Nike and Adidas in Asia, and "Kuroko's Basketball" contributed a lot. It was a win-win situation.

Who told AJ not to pay, and even asked Toei Animation Co., Ltd. for copyright fees at the beginning? This is too pretentious.

Do you think this is a comic?

Animations are not necessarily drawn according to comics, so when they saw that it was the Super God Generation and Curry's Generation sneakers, people were dumbfounded. Boss Jiang Chao is too rich, right? Do you want to invest in this kind of small animation?

But I’m sorry, this little anime has become the most clicked anime among the new series in December and even the most watched anime among all new series.

The hottest selling pair is naturally Heizi’s Curry generation pair.

The second thing is that it is completely beyond Jiang Chao’s expectation. He is not the super generation or the Harden generation...

It turns out to be the Li Ning Arc series of commuter running shoes with a special appearance?

Among commuting running shoes, Li Ning Arc is more popular than coconuts?

You must know that this product is the easiest for Jiang Chao to draw. It is designed to be played with. It is purely Jiang Chao who thinks it looks good.

Unexpectedly, maybe it's because it seems to have a height-increasing function, or maybe it's because of the cool sole curve of this pair of shoes, it's going crazy in the market.

From this incident, Jiang Chao was certain of one thing.

It’s not that domestically produced shoes are not good, but that some people look down on domestically produced logos. Coconuts are popular in the future, just because they are the most expensive commuter running shoes of Adidas, and Adidas is a bonus.

"Nah, sneakers are indeed the same as the car market."

Jiang Chao was dumbfounded after listening to Ding Shizhong's introduction. Just like the BBA brand premium in the automobile industry, this happened to his company.

In this life, fans actually think that Li Ning Hu is more arrogant than Coconut?

Of course, the price of coconut is indeed a bit high. There is no way, the sole is different, Li Ning Arc cannot use a sole like coconut.

However, he is very happy that Li Ning Arc’s design language has become popular in this life. In his previous life, it was a fashionable series of running shoes launched by Li Ning at the end of 2010. At that time, Jiang Chao was already attracted by its cool appearance because he had never seen such a fully hollowed out shoe.

style sole.

The outsole of Li Ning Arc is composed of arc-shaped hollow units, and the arc-shaped shape is integrated with the arc-shaped connection structure added at the heel. From the appearance, it is integrated and dynamic.

"It seems that I made the right choice. Everyone likes to be so naughty."

"That's right, Jiang Chao, your design language is awesome, and that paragraph of yours is also very crucial, okay?"

"Um?"

Jiang Chao actually drew a chassis from the sketch, which was the simplest one to draw. If you want to praise it, you should also praise the designer. In the end, it was Ma Xun who made the final decision.

"No, no, no, you are the most important."

Ding Shizhong and Jiang Chao came to the direct-operated store at the door. On the back of the now called Chaoshen Arc was an introduction to this product written by Jiang Chao himself.

"Walking" is the arc, implementing the concept of pragmatism

The "Super Arc" shape is inspired by fractal art and the self-growing structures in nature. While adhering to the perfect shock absorption performance of the running shoe family, it also draws on the carving techniques in traditional Chinese jade carving art to design the entire sole and upper.

The visual redesign makes the bottom visual aesthetic more natural, smooth and functional.

Based on the spine structure and combined with the gait guidance line, a brand-new Li-Ning arc ace midsole is constructed to brake the engine underfoot.

The upper adopts a hollow frame structure, with the upper and lower layers separated, combined with the currently popular transparent material, emphasizing the hollow and transparent vision.

Colors and materials adopt a multi-layered approach, with the contrast of different materials and different transparencies, emphasizing the visual experience of hollowing out and transparency, and the visual language is consistent with the soles. In order to better realize the various possibilities of daily styling, sports fashion is combined

The properties are well explained.

Chaoshen Arc uses the Journey Explorer, one of the "Three Walkers", as the image blueprint, and has launched four commercially available colors. The stories behind each color are interpreted and contain profound Chinese wisdom.

"Is this color scheme written by Ma Xun?"

Jiang Chao's paragraph is actually nonsense, mainly because of the color matching at the end. Ma Xun's writing is too good, right?

"It was written by Secretary Liu Yan. How can a brat like Ma Xun write such literary and artistic works?"

"Haha, is my Secretary Liu so awesome?"

"Yes, don't you admire the national trend? Secretary Liu who studies Chinese studies just shows his talent."

"Pay her wages!"

"It's necessary. I asked Lai Shixian to pay the part-time bonus for you."

"Haha, okay."

Jiang Chao thought to himself that she was indeed his senior sister. These color introductions were enough to win over coconuts.

The dynamic earth is endless

The overall visual appearance of the shoe body uses unsaturated earth tones, combined with the contoured structure of the bottom, to visually give people a sense of continuous mountain peaks.

Deep edge obsidian

The exquisite black is as deep as obsidian and contains edge. The all-black visual incorporates different grayscales, accommodates the wild structure, and at the same time brings out the highlights of the whole body shape. Its versatile attribute is a must-have for fashionable people to have a concave look on the street.

Artifact.

The sky and the earth are carved with a gray moon

Use colors to depict a gray moon in the night sky, carrying the shining afterglow of the sky. The symbols grown by time make the sky and the earth merge into one.

Ripples look at the blue water

Artistic sunlight shines on the water, and the longitude and latitude intertwined by the light embellish the arc formed by the blue water, just like the veins of the leaves of the plant, interpreting the structural concept of the arc's self-growth.

This introduction is full of sincerity that overflows the screen. Anyone who wants to know more about running shoes will be excited.

"What about the worst-selling one?"

At this time, Jiang Chao really wanted to hear the name of Coconut or the Super God Generation, which would make him believe more in the national trend. But unfortunately, the worst-selling pair was a pair of domestically produced shoes from later generations.

After all, the Li-Ning Arc is so phenomenal. It is considered to be the best-looking pair of commuter running shoes in later generations of domestic design language, while other domestic sneakers are a bit different in terms of design.

Such as kt4.

Chaoshen Sports named this pair of shoes the first-generation shooting guard boots...

"Ahem, no wonder it didn't sell well. The name is a bit painful."
