The opening three-pointer in basketball

The infringement incident of Blue Ocean Sports Co., Ltd. has caused a stir in China.

From the perspective of Bai Yi's fans, this was Chi Guoguo's deception. They were very angry and clamored for an explanation one by one.

Statements of condemnation were issued on major forums and on social media.

For a time, Lan Hai became a street rat, and everyone shouted for him to be beaten.

Of course, there are also some sailors who say that Blue Ocean is also for the purpose of developing national basketball.

But such voices were not mainstream and were quickly drowned out.

From this incident, we can also see Bai Yi’s domestic fan base.

Although his fans are not the fighting fans of those young people in the entertainment industry who fight all day long, but when things really happen, with the huge youth group, they all have mobile phones and know how to surf the Internet. They can even curse someone.

Make a huge noise.

This also makes many brand companies prefer Baiyi.

In the beautiful country of Minnesota, Nike marketing manager Wells straightened his tie and then confidently walked to a small villa in front of him.

This small villa is Bai Yi's current residence.

There are bodyguards at the door.

He now has a total of four bodyguards, not hired by himself, but hired by the Timberwolves Club for him. It is said that they are all elites in the beautiful country, each with an annual salary of 300,000 dollars.

Wells was stopped by bodyguards, and after identifying himself, he entered the villa.

The villa is not big, but the environment is okay.

There is also an open-air football field. This villa is also rented by the Timberwolves club for Bai Yi, with a rent of one million dollars a year.

Wells then met Bai Yi.

At this time, Bai Yi was shooting at the basket outside the villa.

He was sweating profusely and his shots were very accurate. He made three-pointers and two-pointers with his hands, and every ball must be scored.

When Wells saw Bai Yi training for the first time, he couldn't help but feel a little emotional.

By this time, most of the Timberwolves players had traveled around the world.

Only Bai Yi is still training.

It has to be said that this kind of effort is not comparable to that of ordinary rookies.

No wonder as a rookie, he has such outstanding results, I admire him, I admire him.

After a while, while Bai Yi took a shower, Wells introduced his purpose.

"Bai, I came here this time to discuss with you your endorsement of our Nike."

Bai Yi looked at Wells in surprise. He already endorsed Anta and could not endorse other sports brands.

"Bai, don't worry, we will pay you liquidated damages. Don't worry, we can handle these things by ourselves, you don't need to worry about it at all."

Wells seemed to take it for granted.

But Bai Yi doesn't like it very much. He makes his own decisions and doesn't need others to tell him what to do.

He shook his head, "No, Mr. Wells, thank you Nike for your kindness, but I have no intention of changing my endorsement."

"Bai, please listen to me."

Wells came here this time, and it can be said that he was well prepared.

Bai Yi is now undoubtedly the number one sports star in the world. The products he endorses, especially Anta, have seen their market value increase by tens of billions of dollars in the past year.

Anta began to spread its presence around the world, opening branches and attracting local stars.

The reason why they are so successful is because of the east wind of Baiyi.

Although Anta's design is still difficult to describe, no one can say that Anta will not rise.

At that time, Nike was also beaten by Adidas. It relied on Jordan's endorsement to turn the situation around and successfully break out of the siege.

It has become the most influential and best-selling footwear brand in the world.

So now Nike attaches great importance to Baiyi.

The board of directors has given a fatal order that Bai Yi must be signed and Bai Yi must be brought over.

Under such circumstances, Wells and the others prepared a plan that Bai Yi could not refuse. Wells believed that as long as the plan was presented, Bai Yi would be moved.

Because no one has trouble with money.

"Bai, if you sign with us, you will get 35 million U.S. dollars in endorsement fees. Plus sneaker dividends, you can definitely earn more than 50 million U.S. dollars a year."

Just one endorsement costs 50 million US dollars, which is indeed very high.

Including other messy endorsements and the club's annual salary, Baiyi's net income is estimated to be US$100 million, even after deducting taxes.

This level is really high.

Bai Yi glanced at Wells and said nothing.

Wells thought Bai was moved, and then said: "Bai, you should know that Nike is the largest sponsor of the NBA."

"We have a very successful experience and partnership in the NBA."

"Jordan, Kobe, and LeBron are the most obvious examples. Do you understand what I mean? As long as you sign with Nike, you are the top player in the league, and you even have the opportunity to pursue higher honors."

The relationship between Nike and the league is really good, and many people know this.

There is even a saying in the league that referees favor players from Nike and suppress players from other brands.

It's hard to say whether this is true, but Nike players definitely have an advantage during the game and in various post-game evaluations.

Wells's meaning is obvious. As long as you join Nike, you can enjoy those benefits.

Bai Yi glanced at Wells and did not answer immediately.

Wells continued: "One more thing, we are thinking about you, Bai, don't you think the sneakers designed by Anta are too ugly? They don't match your temperament at all."

This is not nonsense from Wells.

Domestic sports brands are basically still in the exploratory stage, and their design is almost zero.

If there are any outstanding and beautiful designs from abroad, just copy them over.

Wells was full of confidence, "Bai, we have carefully prepared several excellent designs for you. Each one is very fashionable and beautiful. You will definitely like it."

Bai Yi looked at Wells, nodded, and said seriously: "Okay, I understand your company's sincerity, but I don't intend to breach the contract."

"why?"

Bai Yi smiled, "Everyone has their own principles. Anta may have some shortcomings, but so far, our cooperation is very pleasant, so I am willing to continue."

Wells didn't understand, "Bai, friendship is friendship and business is business. You can obviously make more money, expand your influence, and even help you in the alliance."

"I understand your point of view, Mr. Wells. I have received your sincerity, but that's just me. If others don't let me down, I won't let them down. This is my principle as a person."

Wells then left with a melancholy look on his face.

He glanced at the bodyguard at the door and suddenly understood why the Timber Wolf was so active.

With Bai Yi's standards of conduct, as long as the Timberwolves live up to Bai Yi, I'm afraid Bai Yi will always stay with the Timberwolves.

Thinking of this, Wells couldn't help but feel a little envious. He also wanted to have such treatment. It was a pity that they didn't encounter Bai Yi in the first time.
