God of basketball

Chapter 164 0162: [You play like Kobe's father]

At noon on November 11, 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 will be too close to a female star who keeps showing up in community service, courts or police stations!"

Ashley Olsen, as a 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 almost fall asleep to Bruce's singing this summer. Those arrogant sneaker dealers are always bossy, but I have to tell them, adults, times have changed."

"We will have a second wave of sales before Christmas. Our factories in China are already 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.

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 being selfish, paranoid, defiant, arrogant, or some attacks similar to 'criminals'.

And Bruce, as they call it: a playboy or jerk with a good face and flamboyant style but no real meaning.

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 launched his own sneakers, and organized 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 shoe.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.

"Who knows if it's actually sold out?"

"Maybe just take out 2000 pairs of sneakers 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 to make it, all he has to do is lose his money."

"The new NBA season has already started, and he has no chance to play tricks anymore. Those brutal and bloody NBA players will not let him make a lot of money in the field of sneakers. Just wait and see. There will be countless dunks 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 came one after another, 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 show-time 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 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.

"Acquisition of 4000% equity of your brand for 80.00 million US dollars, and fully take over the brand operation..."

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 [-]% of the equity to the designer team."

"But, believe me, man. This is your best chance. You know, you're the target of the NBA right now. A lot of NBA players are crazy. They're so jealous of your sneaker money, and you're going to have the worst situation of any rookie. If you don't play well, or get punished, it's going to go from coast to 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.

Ugh!

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 JR Smith, a rebellious third-year student, even issued a 'kill order' to you. Do you think you can beat this talented player who flies into the sky?"

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 was still very calm: "No problem."

This appearance made Bill Duffy feel a little speechless, and it was useless to worry.

He even wondered if Bruce had read his head stupidly.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?

Frankly speaking, the commercial value that Li Zhen has demonstrated now has exceeded Bill Duffy's expectations, but due to contract restrictions, he does not have the power to handle sponsorship contracts in place of Li Zhen, so he can only salivate at the beautiful contract.

Ugh!

Another sigh! !

　I have a bad cold recently, please forgive me.Another update tonight.
