Learning in the NBA can make you a god

Chapter 427 Signature Sneakers: Generation of Heaven!
After rushing to Phoenix non-stop, Li Tian rested for the night and had to go to greet his family first.

My younger sister, Li Tong, didn't want to go back no matter what she said, she insisted on watching the All-Stars before going home, so Li Tian had to compromise and asked her to ask for leave, and then flew back to China directly after watching the All-Stars.Taylor will also come over, so Li Tian has to prepare in advance to welcome them.

There are also some miscellaneous things, which are all handed over to some personnel arranged by Sun Yue and Duffy. After all, Li Tian is now in the beautiful country, and he can be regarded as a big money sucker.It brings a lot of profits to Duffy every year. Although Duffy is serving Yao Ming more, he dare not ignore Li Tian.

Fortunately, the Lakers didn't have any games on the day before the All-Star break, leaving Li Tian with a lot of time.

After dealing with these trivial matters, Duffy also came over in person to pick up Li Tian.

"Bill, long time no see!" Li Tian saw Bill Duffy and greeted him with a smile.

"Yes, Li, it's nice to meet again!" Duffy usually flew to Los Angeles when Li Tian signed some endorsement contracts.

Li Tian had a good life with the Lakers, and there was no gossip, and he didn't need to deal with trivial matters.Bill Duffy was really happy to death. After signing Li Tian, ​​he was basically not busy. Almost every time we met, he signed a contract and let him make money. It was really lying down to make money.

"Haha, there's no way, you don't have any gossip." Duffy didn't know whether to complain, or he was thankful that none of the Chinese stars he signed had any gossip.It's just that he has been busy with Yao Ming's affairs recently, and there have been some frictions with the team management, which he needs to deal with.The last time Yao Ming yelled at Adelman in the locker room, which really scared Mosaic’s management. Only then did Mogou realize that it was impossible for Mosaic to renew his contract with Yao Ming. Make good use of Yao Ming, and nothing will fall in the future.

"It's still my fault. It would be better not to have any gossip. In this way, we can make more money by signing endorsement contracts, and sign fewer contracts. We don't sign contracts with ordinary companies!" Li Tian said.Duffy (Bill Duffy, used this way later.) He was very careful about his endorsement contract. It can be said that he was meticulous and comprehensive, which saved him a lot of time.

"Haha, that's true. Today we are shooting a few sets of advertisements, and then cooperate with Hook Company to promote your signature sneakers, sneaker promotion, and other activities." Duffy introduced in detail the activities in a few days , mainly because of the shooting of advertisements.

There are very few people who need to shoot video advertisements, which is only the case for companies as big as Hook, and most of them are direct print advertisements.After all, the endorsement fee is different, and the benefits brought to oneself are also different, so the payment must also be different.

"No problem, today, can we finish it?" Li Tian didn't want the entire All-Stars to be busy all the time, and he still had some plans for the future.

"It shouldn't be a big problem, don't worry, I won't delay your Valentine's Day event!" Duffy said, he knew why Li Tian said that.When he knew that Li Tian finally got together with Taylor, he didn't feel shocked, he just thought that this was going with the flow, and he had already guessed that Li Tian would definitely surrender obediently in the end.

"Haha, that's good!" Such a manager is really good, he won't delay his business, and he won't help him make any decisions.

"Come on, let's shoot some print commercials first, and finally the hook commercial!" Duffy said.

It took a whole morning, because the NBA All-Stars will be superstars here, and many companies purposely set up a lot of professional studios here, just to facilitate the players to shoot commercials.There is no way, the All-Star game is full of big-name players, they play a vital role in the team, and the time is also tight.

However, Li Tian shoots print advertisements very quickly. Others only take one or two hours to shoot a set of advertisements. Even with makeup time, Li Tian only took half an hour.Why, for a handsome person, makeup can save a lot of time, no special attention is required at all, just the true colors are fine.

During the shooting, what kind of pose you said to use, we put it in minutes, and the efficiency was greatly improved. After the shooting was over, the director was shocked. Several directors who shot commercials felt that as long as they were shooting commercials for Li Tian, ​​they could directly The next thing is to relax, I don't know how much faster than I expected.

After all, they sometimes shoot commercials for some stars, and it takes hours just for makeup. When shooting, they choose countless angles, which is difficult to satisfy them. In the end, some staff have to work overtime to do special effects. This of Li Tian can be exactly what it is. You don’t even need a P-picture. You only need to fine-tune some light, focal length, etc. to achieve or exceed the effect you want.

"Li, this is our last ad for today, but where are we, we need to wait a bit before we can start shooting!" Duffy was also very helpless, and he didn't expect that the original appointment was at 2 o'clock in the afternoon, and the filming would start. A set of ads.Originally, it was mainly indoors, and this part of him needs to be shot outdoors, so I just need to take a few photos during the commercial break.

He also didn't expect that Li Tian would shoot the advertisement so quickly, a full two hours ahead of schedule.The other star invited by Hook Company to shoot the commercial together is not ready yet, so he can only wait, otherwise he can't shoot alone.

"Ah, why wait, I still have a lot of things to do next." Indeed, Nash offered Li Tian, ​​and players like Anthony and James also made an appointment with Li Tian, ​​and Dayao and Ah Lian couldn't refuse.

"Well, you shot too fast before, which I didn't expect. Last year, I only shot a few sets of commercials, and I didn't think so much. This year is different. This time shooting commercials has a great impact on you. You are now in the Lakers team. , is second only to Kobe, so you also need to pay attention to your publicity." Duffy Barabara said a lot.

In fact, it means one thing. In order to bring you better benefits, whether it is economic benefits or reminding you of influence, every advertisement must be refined and strive to achieve the best.Who would have thought that your advertisements were shot so quickly and each one was of such high quality. I was worried that you would not be able to shoot well, so I made an extra appointment. So now, I can only wait for others. The time has not yet come. How could they be possible? Wait for you?

That is to say, I thought you were stupid to shoot commercials, but who knew you could do it so fast.

"Okay, wait a minute, but I haven't seen my signature sneakers yet, Bill, have you seen them?" Although Li Tian's signature sneakers had been finalized before, but because of the sudden break, Kobe kept With a record of 62 points in three quarters, the sneaker designer has to make some changes again.

But in this way, Li Tian has no loss. Some of the shoes produced by Hook Company are basically given to him for free, but they cannot be announced before the All-Stars.I can't wear it, so I don't bother to look at it. I'm even more curious about the redesigned shoes.

"It's really pretty, and it suits you very well." Duffy did receive the shoe samples in advance, but Li Tian is basically away from home recently, and he didn't have time to look at them when they were sent to Los Angeles.

"You'll find out later!" Duffy quickly drove to the commercial shooting location.

"Hello, Li, I'm very glad to be able to shoot commercials for you. I heard from my friend that you are very efficient. I hope we can have a good cooperation today!" said the black man.

"I think so too, can you let me get used to the new basketball shoes first?" Li Tian said with a smile, he couldn't wait for the new basketball shoes.

The most important thing is that you can take it in front of Kobe and show off that you also have a signature shoe.This is the most important point to step into the ranks of stars. It doesn't mean that if you are an All-Star, you will have signature shoes. You are an All-Star, but there are many players who do not have signature shoes.

Just like Li Tian's current teammate, Gasol has entered the All-Star, but has never had a signature shoe.Just like Billups, he didn't start launching his signature sneakers until two years after winning the Finals MVP.Ray Allen has never had a signature sneaker. You are a star, but it doesn’t mean you will have a signature sneaker, but if you have a signature sneaker, everyone will think that you are a real star.

"We used these shoes of yours. The classic purple and gold color match with the theme color of the Lakers. At the same time, there is also your personal imprint, the first championship of the rookie season, your 63 points in three quarters and other information; the outsole is fingerprint type The pattern, the outsole also has the same friction embossing, and your signature is on the toe." Danny (hook staff) began to introduce this pair of shoes.

"Your jersey number is made using the most advanced laser engraving; the Nu-foam lining material is used, which is light and breathable, so that sneakers users can avoid foot odor and have better breathability; all Palm Zoom air cushion + IPS system, combined with one-time compression molding Phylon foam, the thickness of the midsole is very thin (19mm in the back palm, 9mm in the forefoot), and the feeling of sticking to the ground is very strong, and the experience of the field is excellent; the carbon plate embedded in the midfoot improves the structural support And anti-torsion protection, the overall transition of the midsole has a diamond-cut three-dimensional layering, which can help you get more protection during sports." Danny breathed out his fragrance and began to describe the pair of shoes.

"What's more, this shoe, in order to cater to the fans of Tianchao, specially added a red color scheme." Danny also praised this pair of shoes to the fullest.

When Li Tian got this pair of shoes, he felt that these shoes are really very light, and it can be said that they really feel weightless when worn on his feet.Put on a pair of your own insoles, don’t say much, try it out after walking or running for two steps, it’s really comfortable, the lines of the sneakers, the new technology of the sneakers are indeed better than the ones I’ve worn before, those hook sneakers much.

"It's really good. I like this pair of shoes very much!" Li Tian was really happy to put on his first pair of signature shoes. Now it can't be said that he has gained a firm foothold in the NBA. He already has a place in the NBA.Many All-Star players do not have their own signature sneakers.

In Li Tian's heart, a bad taste strikes, and before the All-Star Game, he must give Gasol a pair, so that he can experience it, his signature sneakers.

"Danny, I want to ask, how many pairs of these shoes are prepared for me? With the signature shoes, I must give Yao Ming, Ah Lian, Kobe Bryant and Gasol a pair, so that they can experience it." Li Tian watched To Danny.

"There is no problem with this. We have prepared 100 pairs of shoes for you, because this is the All-Star period, half of them will be sent to Phoenix, and the other half will be sent to your home in Los Angeles." On the day of the three-point shootout, there was a row of stars wearing his signature sneakers. The publicity effect might be even better than Hook's publicity.

"That's good, thank you! Who is shooting the commercial with me today?" Li Tian asked.

"Haha, you know it too. Let me talk about some of the scenes you need to shoot first. Dunking is the most explosive way. I don't know if you have any good dunks. We can" Danny hesitated to speak.

They did design some dunks, but they were still a little worried about whether Li Tian could complete them.

"It's okay, I'll warm up first, and then you can take a look at the design of the dunk!" Li Tian put on his new sneakers and began to warm up.

Another half hour passed.

Li Tian started trying to dunk.

Start from midfield, hold the ball in one hand, run with all your strength, take off from the free throw line, and change hands under the crotch.

"Kang Dang!" The dunk with both hands was completed.

A moment after the dunk was completed, there was a sound in the arena.

"Papa papa!" The staff was a little crazy.

"Wow, wow, that's great. Just this dunk is better than all of our dunk ideas. It's really a pity that you didn't participate in this year's dunk contest. I think other dunkers will be in your glory." It’s eclipsed.” Danny is very happy. Back then, Jordan’s famous dunk was only a free throw dunk, but it was a one-handed dunk.

"This, is it really possible?" Li Tian had some doubts, is it that simple?
"This is just one, we also designed a throwing dunk, but it needs another star to cooperate!" Danny said, this dunk is really good, but if this is used, it will break their original design.

However, he still decided to keep this, which can be used for other publicity, or use this dunk alone for separate publicity.

"Okay, then let's take a picture of this first. If we can take the picture in advance, we will finish it in advance. I have something to do later!" Li Tian was really a little anxious, and then asked Nash. He originally wanted to refuse, but he didn't I really can't refuse, I have invited many times, if I keep refusing, it is really not good.Phoenix is ​​still Nash's home court. It would be inappropriate for him to refuse when he came here this time.

"Okay, then let's shoot your part first. There are several outdoor scenes, let's shoot the outdoors first!" Danny finished, and started to shoot the outdoor scenes.Of course, Li Tian is alone. If the scene needs another star, then we can only wait to shoot.

"Tom, how is the filming going?" Danny asked.

"Wow, really, this cooperation is so perfect. I dare say that this shooting must be much better than the previous expectation. It can be described as perfect." Tom felt a little unbelievable. I didn't expect that this shooting would be completed so smoothly.

"That's good, let's take a dunk video next!" Danny said, if you can do it earlier, you will have more time to process these materials, and you can do better, and then it will be launched in the All-Star Game. , the effect will be better.

"No problem, all right!" said Tom.

Then he began to arrange different angles of camera positions. He hoped that the shooting could be done in one pass, so that he would be very relaxed.

"Bang!"

"Bang!"

"Bang!"

After completing three dunks in a row, with the same posture, Li Tian dunked more and more smoothly. Tom was a little embarrassed when he completed the last dunk.

"I'm sorry, Li, you may still need it, do it again!" Tom scratched his head and said apologetically.

"What's wrong? Could it be that my posture is not in place, or?" Li Tian asked.

"It's not that it's not in place, but it's so perfect that we only care about admiring the dunk and forget to make the camera position cooperate with each other, so..." Tom is also very helpless, this dunk is really perfect.

He has photographed many star dunks, but this time, he was really shocked.

"Okay, but this time, I can't forget it anymore, or I will add money!" Li Tian said jokingly.

"Haha, I think they're happy that I forgot to adjust the camera position, so they can enjoy your dunk a few more times!" Tom said, and finally did not forget to add "Trust us, we are professionals!"

Hearing this sentence, Duffy's face twitched. He was still professional. He forgot about the camera coordination just now. Believe me or not.

"Okay!" Helpless.

"Bang!"

"Bang!"

"Bang!"

Another three consecutive dunks were completed.

"Perfect, perfect!" Tom couldn't help but sigh.

"Papa papa!" There was applause from the door.

"Li, your dunk is getting better and better!" Vujacic's voice came from the door.

"Hey, why is it you? Aren't you in Los Angeles?" No, this guy is not in Los Angeles to accompany his girlfriend, why are you here?
"Haha, I'm here to accompany Sharapova to shoot some commercials. What I didn't expect is that you are the one who wants to cooperate with me!" Vujacic said with a smile. He also didn't expect that Sharapova would cooperate with Li Tian.

"I don't know, they never said it!" Li Tian shrugged.

"Hello, Li, I'm very happy to shoot commercials with you!" Sharapova said.

"I am also very excited to be able to shoot commercials with beautiful women, but I am a little worried that Vujacic will have opinions!" The three chatted happily.

"Lee, are these your signature sneakers?" Vujacic picked up a pair of shoes and asked, obviously, the number 0 on it had already indicated everything.

"Yes, do you like it? I'll give each of you a pair!" Asked about the shoe size, each person gave a pair.

The ad that the two cooperate with is very simple, that is, Sharapova, like serving a tennis ball, throws the basketball into the air, and then Li Tian is in the air, holding a shoe in one hand, and then completes the dunk.

After several attempts, the cooperation between the two became more and more tacit.

"Okay, all departments are ready, everyone will start shooting!" Tom shouted loudly.

"Bang!"

"Bang!"

"Bang!"

Another three dunks in a row, each time completed very well, the next work will be handed over to them, and Li Tian's work has also been completed.

"Thank you. Today's advertisement was shot perfectly. I hope to have another chance to cooperate with you in the future!" Tom happily handed over his business card.

"Okay!" Li Tian took the business card, greeted everyone, and left the shooting location.
