The God of Basketball

At noon on November 2, Double Star announced the first-day sales data of Bruce's first signature shoe.

19868 pairs!

Yes, if not for sending some sneakers to Midtown cities like Chicago. It will definitely be sold out in no time. In California, it even sparked looting, with long lines forming early in front of fashion stores selling sneakers.

Whether it's Oakland, a city in Northern California, or Los Angeles, a city in Southern California. Young boys and girls are in perfect agreement on this matter.

Everybody loves Bruce!

Everyone will want to wear these cool basketball shoes.

"It's definitely not because of some parking lot drama. In fact, no one can buy more than 3 pairs of sneakers from any store. Lindsay Lohan's energy is not as great as imagined. Honestly, no One would be too close to a female star who keeps showing up in community service, courtrooms, or the police!"

Ashley Olsen, as the sole agent, is very confident in the face of the camera: "People always underestimate the influence of Bruce. You should get to know your young friends. They are almost always accompanied by Bruce's singing this summer vacation. Go to sleep. Those snooty sneaker dealers are always bossing around, but I have to tell them, my lord, times have changed."

"We will have a second wave of sales before Christmas. Our factories in China have been working overtime. We will let every young friend who loves fashion, sports and blues have a pair of 'Red Chain Snake'. It will help You overcome fear and swallow all bad luck and troubles."

Ashley Olsen's speech announced the victory of the first battle.

This greatly exceeded everyone's expectations, especially those media who were not optimistic about Li Zhen.

Their previous vows became loud slaps at this moment, constantly falling on their cheeks.

The North American basketball media's disagreement with Bruce is the strongest since the new century, and the treatment he received was even worse than that of Iverson back then. Back then, Iverson was only distorted by the basketball media into selfish, paranoid, arrogant, arrogant, or some attacks similar to "criminals".

And Bruce, they call it: a playboy or a player with a good face, a perfect family background, a gorgeous style of play but no real meaning.

No one really saw Bruce as a player who could make a name for himself in the NBA. They all think that Bruce will quickly end up in the NBA after a short period of freshness, perhaps becoming a singer who gives concerts everywhere, or going to Wall Street as a manager of a venture capital fund. In short, no matter how you look at it, it doesn't look like a basketball player.

And now he actually wants to launch his own sneakers, and organize a professional team in a serious manner... But is it useful? This is basically chasing the bottom, a player who didn't even make the NBA starter actually wants to become the owner of the best-selling signature shoes. are you crazy?

So, they crazily belittle Bruce's business practices.

However, according to the results announced by Double Star, it was almost sold out on the first day. Among them, Los Angeles, Oakland, New York and other places are in short supply, and the price of sneakers has been doubled or even higher than the release price.

When such a result is really in front of you.

The media were dumbfounded.

But they quickly find reasons for themselves, they give all kinds of reasons.

Does anyone know if any are actually sold out?

Maybe only 2,000 pairs of sneakers are used for hunger marketing!

It's just luck, it's just the influence of singer Bruce, and the scandal effect of the entertainment industry.

If Bruce believes in this result and works overtime in China, all that awaits him is nothing but nothing.

The new NBA season has already begun, and he no longer has the possibility of taking tricks. Those murderous NBA players will not let him make a lot of money in the sneaker field, just wait and see. There will definitely be countless stars dunking on his head, and he will be severely punished one after another in the basketball field soon. No real fans will buy his sneakers! !

...

These voices come,

But Li Zhen didn't mind at all.

What makes him a little depressed today is that the "New York Times" commented on his NBA debut: He reminds us of Kobe Bryant's father, the forward nicknamed Jelly Bean. They have the same problem, the skill is gorgeous and delicate, but they don't do the dirty work and don't pay attention to the details of defense. They were born to perform, not to win. And, his talent is still so bad. It seems naive and innocent for the Lakers to pin their hopes on him.

I actually look like Kobe's father? ?

This made Li Zhen frown, and he swore he had never watched the Joe Bryant tape. In fact, as a mediocre player, his tape has no circulation value.

Li Zhen's only concern is: Will the words of the New York Times make Kobe cancel his invitation to visit his house on Saturday?

After all, being pointed at a teammate by the world-class media "New York Times" and saying, "He plays like your father", at least in Eastern culture, is a bit shocking.

Before Bruce could figure out what the attitude of the Black Mamba was, Bill Duffy excitedly brought the latest offer from Nike.

"Forty million US dollars to acquire 80% of your brand's equity, and fully take over brand operations..."

Before he finished speaking, Li Zhen shook his head: "Impossible."

Bill Duffy was stunned: "Is this all right? This is actually comparable to LeBron's contract. Although you invested a lot before and gave 10% of the equity to the designer team."

"But, believe me, man. This is your best chance. You know, you've become the target of the NBA. A lot of NBA players are crazy. They're so jealous of your sneaker income. What's next for you? The right situation is probably the worst of all rookies, if you don't play well, or if you are taught, the people who hurt you will line up from the west coast to the east coast."

Bill Duffy earnestly hoped that Bruce would accept it as soon as he was good.

But Li Zhen didn't think so. He felt that his journey had just begun.

Everyone against me? Hell mode start?

Great!

"There is a saying in China that the edge of a sword is sharpened. I believe that these challenges will make me stronger. These things will definitely not kill me, and I will become stronger!"

Li Zhen answered Bill Duffy with calm eyes and a calm tone.

well!

Bill Duffy sighed heavily. He really doesn't know where Li Zhen's courage comes from, is it because many old men appreciate him?

This is the NBA. Those jealous players will never be as gentle as college basketball. They are not only tough, but also dirty.

You, a talented student who came out of an ivory tower... Sigh!

"Your next opponent is the Denver Nuggets. Did you know that the second-year rookie JR Smith has even issued a 'kill order' to you. Do you think you can beat this flying player?"

Bill Duffy reminded: "This player who jumped straight from high school to the NBA always thinks he is the next Kobe. He has been jealous of you for a long time. Be careful!!"

Li Zhen raised his eyebrows, he still looked very confident: "No problem."

Bill Duffy had nothing to say: it's no use worrying.

Did this kid make his head stupid by reading? Don't sign a lot of endorsements, and don't want the super acquisition plan that Nike handed over. He clearly knows...the media is targeting him, but he still refuses to lower his stance. What's the matter? Do you still want to turn public opinion around by yourself without the help of capital power?

Bill Duffy didn't understand Li Zhen's thoughts at all.

The commercial value shown by Li Zhen has exceeded his original expectations, but due to contract restrictions, he has no right to handle the sponsorship contract on behalf of Li Zhen at all, and can only look at the beautiful contract and salivate.

well!

Another sigh! !
