Chapter 1489 Three Billion Tang Qian! (Add more~)

For role players, the All-Star Game is a time for rest, but for star players, it's not like that.At this time in the past, Zhou Zhiru took Tang Qian to run around, advertising, filming, negotiation, publicity, many commercial activities to do, usually not much time, basically this is the time to take care of it.Thinking of this, Tang Qian's eyes darkened a little, because last year's Toronto All-Star Game was actually the last time he met Zhou Zhiru.Then the girl returned home quietly.

What should be done is still to be done, that is, the days and things that are related at this time, it is easy to think about others.

This year, the professional "Team Tang" is in charge of this matter. The plan and schedule are very detailed, but it just makes Tang Qian feel a little empty in his heart.Having said that, at this time a few years ago, he basically spent this week flying around with Zhou Zhiru.Suddenly changed all of a sudden, always a little uncomfortable.

Even sometimes he would be dazed on the plane, feeling that the little girl was sitting next to him, wearing that professional attire and carefully reviewing the details of the upcoming activities.

"Tang, brother Tang? Are you listening? This is the ad waiting for you. And1 will negotiate your new contract with us. Based on what Sister Zhiru has already negotiated, we don't have much to do, maybe Just pay attention to these few aspects, take a look, first of all..."

The "Team Tang" next to him is very professional, basically tailor-made, but... always makes Tang Qian a little absent-minded.

After swallowing all these things, Tang Qian excused himself to be tired, took out a small white MP4, put on headphones, and pressed the play button.

I don't know if it was the sound of the song or other sounds, but it slowly entered Tang Qian's ears.

the bottom of my heart.

AND1 headquarters.

"I'm very happy that we have basically reached an agreement. Specifically, we want to take advantage of the release of the All-Star Game in the next few days, and also give Tang and ourselves a wave of hype. What do you think? The best thing is...Tang can win this time The All-Star MVP is the best. I don’t know how hot it is, what do you think?” It was AND1’s confidant and female executive Dai Na who was speaking.Because of Tang Qian's strategy, Dai Na has gained a lot of trust and extraordinary promotion. In addition, she is indeed very capable. Now she is Seth Berger's confidant and favorite general, so everyone thinks that they are two "Have a leg".

After all, AND1 has been brought back to life now, so Seth Berger, as the chairman, can no longer do everything by himself as before. It is already very solemn to let his number one love general come over this time.After all, this is not a formal contract signing ceremony. When the day comes, he will definitely show up.He also attaches great importance to Tang Qian. This time, he was unable to return from his foreign inspection team for the time being. For this reason, he made a special call to comfort Tang Qian.

"Brother Tang, Brother Tang, what do you think?" A member of the "Team Tang" asked Tang Qian for his opinion.

Only then did Tang Qian raise his head, and after thinking about it for a while, he nodded.

However, he added a request, that is, this time, on the basis of releasing a new generation of signature shoes, a limited commemorative edition of shoes will be released.There should be three letters "ZZR" on it.For this, Dai Na decided to agree, because for the current AND1, Tang Qian is someone who cannot be offended.It can even be said that even if Tang Qian's "do it your own way" basketball shoes go out independently, there is no pressure.Because many people now only recognize Tang Qian's "doing his own way" and not having much loyalty to AND1.

This is a bit similar to Nike's Jordan shoes, so she knew exactly what to do, so she agreed without hesitation, without any hesitation at all.Seeing this, Tang Qian also nodded. As for the contract, he didn't want to read too much.

Anyway, watching or not watching, the money will not be less, and the "Tang Team" I bring is not a vegetarian.

They take care of the really professional things, and they come here to show their faces, that's all.

But if he doesn't come, it's meaningless, everything is still based on him.

After coming out, a younger female member of the "Team Tang" couldn't help saying: "My God, I didn't expect such a super contract to be released, and it was done by us. It's really disappointing." I can’t believe it. My hands are still trembling slightly with excitement. Brother Tang, you are really amazing! How about a full $30 billion? Even though it’s paid in installments, it’s too scary.”

"And our global sales dividends are still retained, this is simply... sending money."

Yes, in order to keep Tang Qian for a lot of money, and in order for Tang Qian to overwhelm the 15-16 billion lifetime contract that Nike gave James to James in one fell swoop. The choice of AND1 is... double directly! ! !Scary, isn't it? ? ?If this bet loses, AND1 can directly announce that it exploded on the spot and went bankrupt on the spot.But AND1 is now betting wholeheartedly on Tang Qian. Seth Berger directly believes that he, No. 29 of the Lakers, is the next Jordan.

Chinese Jordan.

Now due to the surge in domestic consumption power, the sales of sneakers are also rising steadily. In addition, Tang Qian is the only Chinese big-name player, and he is still at the quasi-super giant level. His idol power is a bit unparalleled.This is absolutely incomparable to those Chinese players who play soy sauce in the NBA.

Even now AND1 still has a goal, which is to completely win the Eastern market and become the biggest capital to compete with Adidas and Nike in the future.And to achieve this goal, Dongfang No. 29, he is an indispensable key.

30 billion US dollars may seem like a lot, but it is actually Nike’s net income for seven or eight months. Besides, installment payment is also a big key.So, AND1 is betting.They were ambitious, so they made such a gamble.

In terms of current profits, how much are they?The net profit is less than 4 million US dollars, although it is already terrible, surpassing many old brands in one fell swoop.Including Puma and Under Armor, it currently ranks third in the world.But compared with the previous Nike and Adidas, it is a fraction.Because Adidas' financial statements for this year came out, the revenue was as high as 212 billion euros, and the net profit was close to 12 billion euros, which is about 13 billion dollars in conversion.It's terrible.And what is the number one sports giant Nike?It's really scary to say it, the revenue is as high as 344 billion US dollars, what about the net income?Up to 42 billion US dollars.It is several times that of Adidas.

So, looking at the previous two big brothers, AND1 still has to work hard.

As the saying goes, the timid starves to death, and the daring dies. Now Seth Berger is not going to keep it like this. He is going to fight Adidas in his lifetime. After all, he is only in his early 40s. There is a long time.Besides, as the founder of this brand, he also has many additional advantages that he can use.This is what Adidas and Nike do not have.

However, this contract is the same as James's, and it is not going to be made public, but the so-called non-disclosure is not rumored at all, isn't James's one also not made public?The results of it?Isn't it still hotly discussed everywhere, and the city is full of wind and rain?It depends on how you use this to make a good hype.This is what business has to do, and Tang Qian doesn't want to get involved.

He just needs to do his duty as a spokesperson.

As for the money...

What's the point for Tang Qian now?

He doesn't have the habit of spending extravagantly, so... what's the point?
After signing with so much money, in fact, to be honest, he didn't feel at all, not even as happy and joyful as signing the first small contract with Zhou Zhiru at the beginning.So when asked this question, Tang Qian just looked up at the building of AND1's headquarters, and then said lightly: "Too much money is just a number. Everyone has worked hard. I didn't give you a few days during the Spring Festival. Leave, after the All-Star Weekend is over, I will give everyone a short holiday, and then everyone will get a big red envelope. Even if it is my incompetent boss' belated year-end bonus."

There was a sudden burst of cheers, Tang Qian is not short of money, but they are all ordinary people, and they have not yet reached the realm of "money is numbers".Besides, Tang Qian ignored this team because he was in China before. Although there was a reason for the incident, what should be made up should be made up, so as not to cause problems after a long time.

The era of just shouting slogans has long passed. Even elementary school students know that fighting chicken blood will not work.

The combination of profit and righteousness is a solid foundation, and besides... this team was built by Zhou Zhiru, and Tang Qian didn't want them to be easily destroyed in his own hands.

……

A string of commercial activities continued, and then it was time to fly to New Orleans for All-Star Weekend.

Originally, this year's game was supposed to be held in Charlotte, but due to certain policy issues, the NBA temporarily canceled the right to host Charlotte in order to avoid suspicion, and replaced it with New Orleans.This incident made God Qiao very depressed, after all, he could make a lot of money if he held it in Charlotte.The current Qiao God is worthy of the name, Joe's boss, and he is no longer that basketball player Michael Jordan.

So the direction of thinking is also different, the ass determines the head.understandable.

It's a pity that the protest was invalid, and this year's organizer moved to New Orleans.

Compared with the NFL Super Bowl game that ended not long ago, the NBA's All-Star Weekend is getting worse day by day, and Vatan Silval doesn't know that this is actually a wake-up call. His reforms in the future will only make this festival more and more popular. Can't help it.Even in the original time and space, he gave up on himself a bit. Facing the lowest ratings and subscriptions in history, he once said that he wanted to "cut" the All-Star Weekend game.Of course, this is unlikely, and it is just a few words of complaint.The game started in 1951, and it was officially broadcast on TV eight years later, and it only played the second half.It was a rough start.Before David Stern took charge of the league, the ratings of the so-called All-Star Weekend were poor. It was David Stern, an old Jewish man, who brought this festival up step by step.Once second only to the Super Bowl.In the Jordan era, it once reached a ratings of 8, and the number of simultaneous viewers reached 14.3 million.Now... the situation is getting worse.

In 2019, there are even only 3.8 ratings left.

It's no wonder that the CEO is so anxious that his hair will grow out.

But why this happened, Wade actually told the truth in an interview after the All-Star Game, the reason is actually very simple...

It’s just that the performance of the All-Star Game is too heavy, and now it’s mainly shooting and non-confrontation, and the whole game is not serious. In the past, at any rate, the last quarter was serious fighting, but now it’s better, the whole process is "Ode to Joy".This is really speechless for anyone to see.The score between the two sides is getting higher and higher year by year, but the ratings prove that if they do this, they will kill themselves.

But in this time and space, our President has met a savior. How did Jordan bring the All-Star Game to the peak back then, and now he is doing it on the 29th.From this point on, the President began to slowly change his views, and became a little...
