My vision is different

Lin Shaojie's words may be exaggerated, but if the two parties really parted ways, it would be a big loss for Nike.

At this moment, the Nike people only had an embarrassed smile, and at the same time they wanted to withdraw the contract that was handed over to Lin Shaojie earlier.

Before they came here, they had never considered the possibility of a collapse. After all, they were still within the contract period, and they had already shown their sincerity by taking the initiative to come to the door. They only considered the possibility of how much profit they would share.

After all, it involves too much money.

But when Lin Shaojie broke their dream face to face, everything seemed to be taken for granted.

How successful you are now, how painful you will be when you lose.

As if Nike is inseparable from "Jordan", the two sides have integrated into each other, and "Commander" is more and more like a second Jordan.

Now Lin Shaojie’s commercial value far exceeds that of other basketball players. Except for the North American market, the highly anticipated "LeBron" series has been cold in other regions. On the contrary, as a rising star, "Commander" has become the second after "Jordan". Brand, the increase is amazing, Nike really can't afford to lose.

From this point of view, the alternative contract handed out earlier obviously does not meet the value of the other party, so of course he wants to withdraw it.

But Lin Shaojie blocked it and stopped the other party's move.

Between the two sticks on the contract, it weighs more than a thousand catties.

Not to mention, those slender, white fingertips don't look like they are playing basketball, they thought they were playing the piano inadvertently!

"Lynn, believe me, cooperation with Nike is definitely a win-win situation, and we will give you a satisfactory result."

"Of course, our previous cooperation was very pleasant, and I also believe that we will have a good future."

Lin Shaojie responded with a smile on his face, but his subordinates were not slack. The Nike people wanted to withdraw the contract but did not pull it. This moment was really embarrassing.

"After talking about the bad ones, we can also talk about the joyful ones. I believe you will give a satisfactory answer."

After saying this, Lin Shaojie let go.

The sudden change and disappearing strength made the members of the business team feel like "using too much force". Fortunately, everyone's attention was on Lin Shaojie's words, and they didn't notice the movement of the person in charge.

Maybe you saw it and pretended you didn't see it.

"What if it's the other way around? What if we reach a new cooperation agreement in advance?
Apart from paying a large signing fee, as well as the fees and share of the next year, what will you get? "

Lin Shaojie tempted the negotiators like a devil, telling the beauty of "hell".

He even started to assume the possibility of "signing fee" and "sharing" on his own initiative. This is a treatment that only a very small number of people enjoy, and ordinary super giants do not have this qualification.

"We'll give you the rest of the contract as a signing fee."

As a business representative, this mouth is bleeding profusely, and the "signature fee" is at most an extra, but a signing fee of more than ten million is a bit surprising.

But this is already the greatest sincerity that the person in charge can show, and if it goes further, it is not up to him to decide.

Besides, this money was originally intended to be donated to Lin Shaojie as a "giveaway", which can be regarded as a good start for the contract renewal.

Lin Shaojie didn't seem to notice the "goodwill" of the other party.

"I'm sure that if we sign the agreement, then on the first trading day, Nike's stock price will skyrocket, and this intuitive value-added part alone will exceed what you will pay in the future.

After you release the annual or quarterly sales announcement to the public, the market value will skyrocket again. The same group of people will make things worse because of their benefits, and they will also add to the cake because of their benefits.

Regardless of whether they want to ship or buy, in short, you don't lose money, but make a lot of money.but me"

After finishing speaking, Lin Shaojie tapped his temple lightly: "Do you think I can't understand such a simple truth? Then give up the benefits you got?

What on earth are you thinking, you want to use the remaining value of the 'Mr. $5000 million' to confuse me, am I short of that money? "

Lin Shaojie's words made the face of the person on the opposite side dyed, changing back and forth.

"I am Lin Shaojie, the most appealing basketball player on Twitter. Even if I post a photo, all the products on it will be sold out; I have the highest IQ in the league and excellent business vision. Many investors have entered a certain industry with me in this period; more importantly, in the eyes of the public, I am a lucky one, and it is the honor of the other party to cooperate with me
I really hope that you can convey my words to Mark (Parker), I think he should understand the meaning of it, and if he can't decide, maybe he can tell Phil (Knight). "

When Lin Shaojie mentioned the current CEO and founder of Nike, a group of people on the opposite side looked at each other in blank dismay. Only then did they realize that the decision to sign such a big deal as Lin Shaojie was made by Mark Parker himself.

"I believe that you also have expectations for LeBron, but in terms of business, it is very easy for him to stand up. When LeBron gets '78' points, then talk to me about the sequence of the two. Staying securely under 'Jordan' until now is already respecting the contract for both of us. If the next one is still like this, I don't think there is any need for us to continue to cooperate. This is completely inconsistent with my identity and my current status. value."

As he spoke, Lin Shaojie clicked on the contract that he had never opened before.

The person in charge of business who took back the contract seemed to have picked up a hot potato. He didn't know whether to open it and say "it's not as simple as you said," or put it away to confirm what the other party said. The contract was really hard to come by.

Lin Shaojie's "cannon fire" temporarily stopped, but the business team was like a frost-beaten eggplant. After a while, the yellow faces in the team took the initiative to speak.

"Mr. Lin, I think you are treated in the league, and when you are stigmatized, Nike is also."

"Wait! Are you from Huaguo?"

"Yes, it used to be!"

"So can you speak?"

"meeting!"

"Then please communicate with me in Chinese."

"it is good!"

Gritting his teeth, he looked at the slightly nodded expression of the person in charge. The yellow face was about to speak, but Lin Shaojie stopped him very rudely: "By the way, who are you?"

"I'm."

"Well, it doesn't matter who you are!"

Lin Shaojie waved his hand and interrupted the other party's words again, appearing to be very unqualified:
"It doesn't matter to me who you are. This is a contract worth hundreds of millions of dollars or more. I just want to express my opinion clearly. You need to find someone who can make a decision to confirm whether Renewal, the decision is yours.

I don't want to waste each other's time. I still have games to play. For me, the benefits of that bit of haggling are far less important than my excellent performance on the court. "

After finishing speaking, Lin Shaojie stood up with his hands on the table: "It doesn't matter to me who you or your companion is! It is my greatest sincerity to come to see you."

Lin Shaojie, who removed the fig leaf, made everyone on the opposite side look ugly. The truth of the world is so cruel. In the face of such a huge benefit, no one is pure.

Lin Shaojie, who has an honest face and looks amiable, is the real devil. He dares to stand on the front line and participate in business negotiations. To describe it with a word on the court.

"Killing crazy!"

The crazy Lin Shaojie let the Nike people know clearly that this time hemorrhage is inevitable, and his merciless treatment of his compatriots has caused serious differences in the business team.

The same time and place are favorable for people, and the three-year short-term contract signed at the beginning was a lot of money, but no one thought that the value of this Huaguo person was so high.

It was okay to play for him at the beginning, he became a blockbuster in the Olympics, and he was in the limelight. He wanted to make a seemingly large price before he entered the NBA, but it was actually not a big price for Nike. what?
Behind Lin Shaojie is the huge Huaguo market, which no one dares to ignore. Even if he is a role player, as long as he can stay in the NBA, Nike has the ability to "bring" him up.

But no one knew that Lin Shaojie would become so popular in the end!

Isn't the sports life of Chinese people very short?
After all, it's hard for anyone to say how long a Chinese native will be able to stay in the NBA.

Even if it is as strong as table tennis and diving, the main force is changed frequently.Why didn't this Chinese man have a low tide after his blockbuster success?

If I had known this earlier, I would have signed a fat contract of more than eight years at that time.

But now everyone knows that even if the guy in front of him has no body, he can stand firm and survive in the NBA just by relying on his mind.

Such a player with brains, foresight, and appearance is simply a hunk born from heaven, killing those old blacks in their private plots with blood flowing in the oars.

"Mr. Lin, we will consider your opinion personally. For our previously unsafe contract, we will launch a new cooperation plan as soon as possible."

"You still have one last chance to make an offer. I think my opinion has been made very clear."

Lin Shaojie, who stretched out an index finger, replied affirmatively.

"We will absolutely satisfy you."

"expect!"

"grateful!"

The two sides separated in this conference room, watching Lin Shaojie leave with John Thornton and others, the remaining team members were silent for a long time.

"Are we going to report up like this?"

"What else should I do? This is such an impolite fellow!"

"Who said no? He is really not friendly to his compatriots. I even thought he was an out-and-out beautiful Chinese!"

"Do you think there is something wrong with what Lynn said?"

In the end, the person in charge stood up and finished:

"I wonder if we made a mistake. Excluding the honors he won in the NBA, Lynn is indeed just a spokesperson for us, and he is in the status of Party B. But have we forgotten his status as a billionaire? ?”

The person in charge's words made the office quiet again. Looking at the empty seat, there used to be a standard billionaire sitting there. Everyone knows that this kind of real identity has the power in the beautiful country. , even if Lin Shaojie is just a foreigner!

Maybe the person who can talk to him directly is Mark Parker, the leader, and even their immediate boss, the person in charge of the entire Nike brand, and Charlie Danson, the co-president, are all short of half a frame.

At this moment, recalling what Lin Shaojie said, "It is my greatest sincerity to come to see you," and there was still some warmth on his cheeks.

John Thornton and his group left behind Lin Shaojie, and they were careful not to be snooped by reporters before going out.

Perhaps everyone's eyes were on the stadium and the players' residence, but this temporary place did not attract the attention of reporters.

When they got inside the car, they closed the door and everything became quiet. John Thornton breathed a sigh of relief.

Looking at Lin Shaojie next to him, he was different from the previous "thorny" state, and now he has returned to his previous appearance, as amiable as a boy next door, full of sunshine, constantly attracting the eyes of the opposite sex.

Looking at the team members around him, and then recalling those members of Nike when he left, John Thornton discovered that Nike even found a lot of Chinese for this renewal.

"Nike and the others are in a hurry to renew the contract, are they trying to catch the leak?"

The car is very quiet, except for the faint sound of the air conditioner, no other noise can be heard.

The relationship and interests between John Thornton and Lin Shaojie destined him to stand by Lin Shaojie's side.

"They even invited a few of your compatriots to come to negotiate. This kind of thought is really rare!"

With a mocking tone, John Thornton did not hide his opinion.

Perhaps it was the oriental faces that appeared in the previous business negotiation team that made him quite worried. After all, understanding from compatriots is the most deadly.

"In a business war, where is the family affection of compatriots to speak of?"

Lin Shaojie said indifferently: "Even close relatives and friends may betray, and it is even more uncommon for compatriots to 'stab each other' when they meet. When you go out, you still have to be more vigilant against 'fellow folks'."

Lin Shaojie's words made John Thornton quite useful. He didn't have the Chinese feelings like Lin Shaojie, and he purely paid attention to the community of interests. However, the behavior of Chinese people sometimes sticking together and sometimes backstabbing makes them a little unclear, so many situations Now, he was also worried that Lin Shaojie would be deceived, just like Lin Shaojie was too kind in dealing with Luo Xiaoou.

However, Lin Shaojie is one of the few players who is sober, and will not lower his defensive mentality because of the identity of the opponent. This undoubtedly gave John Thornton more confidence in business negotiations.

What's even more rare is that Lin Shaojie knows what he's doing and won't do things that will get him into trouble. This is far better than those old black players. According to the standards of the opponent, Lin Shaojie's actions are almost saint.

For Lin Shaojie himself, although the people he saw earlier had obvious Chinese faces, their words and deeds showed that they had already left the life of China. "Foreigners who can't even speak Chinese!"

Yellow skin and white heart?

Maybe they have long been used to hamburger and chicken drumsticks, and Lin Shaojie and them are at most nodding acquaintances, plus a little bit of business contacts, other than that, there is no intersection.

Lacking common eating habits, life and learning energy, it is difficult to find the kind of warmth that is close to each other in the soul. This kind of people is not even as good as those Chinese who meet for the first time, do business in overseas, and simply come to watch the football and speak dialects.

In business talk business, there is no need to play the emotional card, such behavior will actually be a disadvantage. Lin Shaojie is not the kind of person who needs to be respected.

The respect of the NBA has always been played out, no one will respect you without strength.

Nike's move, after all, is a bad move!
