I was the owner of the Lakers

“Why would you want to buy my company? Although I hate to admit it, the fact is that my company has no value at all, and I can’t find a reason for you to buy it. Plank gritted his teeth, although he was excited that his company was appreciated by Xiao Yang, he was curious to know why.

“In fact, to be precise, I am not buying the company Under Armour, but I hope to package and acquire it with you.” Xiao Yang looked at Plank and said seriously, “To be honest, your company is not worth much, my main purpose is to cooperate with you.” ”

“Work with me?” Plank looked at Xiao Yang suspiciously, he knew very well that he was just a young man who had just graduated and was still starting a business, and it was very likely that the business would fail and carry a bunch of debts, so no one should invest in himself.

“Yes, with you.” Xiao Yang nodded, “You don’t need to pay a penny, you just need to help me do things, and I will invest in you.” And it seems that you should not be able to come up with the money. Xiao Yang looked at the small warehouse. Plank smiled, he still had a debt, naturally he couldn’t pay for it.

“Of course, including your ‘top armor’ brand, I will also package and buy together, give you 5 million US dollars in the early stage, you can use it to recruit people, find a place to set up the company, I will not do any intervention.” You can have a 5% stake in it. “Xiao Yang only intends to be an investor, he will not manage, anyway, honestly hand over to professional people to operate, this is his principle, laymen do not command insiders, the first element of success.”

Plank has opened his mouth wide at this time, his eyes are round, God, 5 million US dollars, or only the initial investment, even if he only has 5% of the shares, then there are 250,000 US dollars, you must know that he worked hard to save 20,000 US dollars as a star player in college, for the 96-year-old Americans, 250,000 is already a lot of wealth.

At this moment, in Plank’s eyes, Xiao Yang seemed to be an angel with a pair of wings, and there was almost an aperture on the door of his head, it must be that God felt his piety and sent an angel to rescue him.

“What do you think, if you have any ideas to put forward, we can talk slowly.” Xiao Yang looked at Plank, who was in a state of desolation, and waved his hand in front of him, interrupting Plank’s YY.

Wiping the saliva that does not exist at the corner of his mouth, Plank nodded fiercely and repeatedly, this condition is not agreed, people should not be too greedy, really want to provoke the rich man in front of him to be unhappy to withdraw the offer, and he is depressed to jump off the building.

“I don’t have a problem, anyway, I don’t need to pay for it, I can sign a contract at any time.” Plank rubbed his hands excitedly, seeing this situation, he wished to follow Xiao Yang to sign the contract now.

Xiao Yang didn’t expect this trip to go so smoothly, and he planned to spend a few days slowly drinking Plank negotiations. In fact, he is stuck in time, Xiao Yang’s grasp of future information has taken a big advantage, he knows that Under Armour will succeed in the future and can become a giant company of sports brands, but Plank does not know ah.

Now is the trough of Plank’s career, he is still in a stage of self-doubt, at this time he is almost launched, he does not know whether the business he insists on can be successful, what industry giants, he dare not think about it, just hope to make a little money to be satisfied.

In history, Plank survived until 97 and was completely bankrupt, when he could not even afford to eat, and could only live in his mother’s house to rub rice, until the Atlanta Falcons brought him his first order and gained a good reputation, and his career slowly began to improve.

It is precisely in the early days of Planck’s business that Xiao Yang’s appearance is like a flat asphalt road suddenly appearing next to a road full of thorns, not everyone has to take a difficult road (swear to God, I really didn’t hack someone).

— ask for flowers, ask for — collection

In the next two days, in addition to finding a large law firm to draw up a contract, and after officially signing the contract with Plank, he was helping Plank move, originally Plank planned to find a place to set up a company in Baltimore, Maryland, but Xiao Yang felt that it was better to go to Los Angeles, after all, he is also a celebrity in Los Angeles, and his contacts should be of great help to a newly established company.

“Kevin, I said you need to bring these things to Los Angeles, what the hell is this?” Xiao Yang looked at the large and small bags of luggage that Planck sorted out with some pain. The two were originally young people, and they got along with each other in the past two days.

“Hey~ this is a product that I spent all my savings to come up with~” Plank said with a smile, “It’s also my property, I can’t leave them all behind.” ”

“That’s not right, but I’ve already helped you pay off your credit card bill and gave you a $20,000 settlement fee.” It’s equivalent to having already bought these things. After Xiao Yang signed the contract between the two, he helped Plank clean up the debt, after all, 5 million was spent, and he didn’t care about the small money of tens of thousands.

“Haha, then this is also the company’s property, as the general manager of Under Armour, I can’t see the company’s property lost in vain~” Plank laughed and said that it was the general manager, in fact, there are two people in Under Armour, a general manager and a chairman, and other employees still need Plank to Los Angeles to slowly make up.

Xiao Yang grinned painfully, helped to carry the luggage onto the pickup truck of the freight company parked at the door of the warehouse, and after all the things were done, Plank signed the cargo list, and was ready to fly to Los Angeles with Xiao Yang to Washington, and the goods were estimated to be delivered to Los Angeles in a week.

“Los Angeles looks more prosperous than Washington, ha~” Plank, who had just got off the plane and was sitting in a car on the road to the city, said to Xiao Yang.

“You don’t look at this is the second largest city in the United States, the entertainment capital, and if it weren’t for the capital, Washington wouldn’t be ranked in the United States.” Xiao Yang glanced at these two fools, comparing Washington and Los Angeles to prosperity, are you here to be funny. The world is more prosperous than Los Angeles in the face of the face.

“You stay at the hotel first, I have already sent someone to arrange it for you, take a break in the past two days, walk around Los Angeles, see where it is suitable by the way, and get the company address first when it is determined.” Xiao Yang said to Plank while driving.

“When you find the address, prepare all the things that should be prepared, and then go to recruit people, how to get me to care, when the time comes, just vacate the company’s financial department, I will send someone to take care of it.” Xiao Yang knows that the main thing in an enterprise is personnel and finance, and he does not care about personnel, lest he fool himself and affect the development of Planck, but he must hold the finance in his hands.

After these few days of getting along, although Xiao Yang is sure that Planck is not the kind of person who will invest in people’s money, why should this risk be exposed, the risk that can be stifled must be eliminated, and finance is the lifeblood of a company. As long as Xiao Yang controls his finances in his own moment, he can know how the company is developing, although he does not intervene, but his company still has to be clear in his heart.

“No problem, in fact, you don’t need to recruit too many people in the early stage, mainly designers, and some marketing people, and find a few assistants.” Planck understands Xiao Yang’s approach of controlling finances, and he will do the same, “We mainly need to rely on good designers to design bright products, and when they are put on the market, we can quickly accumulate some word of mouth.” ”

“What about the factory? How do we ensure the supply after designing the product? Xiao Yang asked.

Plank thought for a while, “We first consider small-scale foundry, and then see the market response, if the market is more friendly, we will consider expanding production, specifically whether to introduce production lines ourselves or go overseas to find cheap large-scale foundry, then look at the situation.” ”

“I have no doubt about this, I only have one request, that is, Under Armour’s quality control must be done well, I don’t want any quality scandals in the future.” Xiao Yang didn’t have any other requirements, and for this one request, he didn’t want his endorsement star to even knock off the sole when he played on the field in Under Armour’s shoes in the future.

If he cooperates with the NBA in the future, he hopes that those players will not be able to fight in Under Armour’s jersey, and he still remembers the slag quality jerseys of Nike in later generations, and has seen the news many times that the jersey was torn.

“There are also designers in this aspect is the key thing to do, you find a headhunting company to contact the designers of those big sports brands, and increase the salary by 50%, I don’t believe no one will be moved.” Xiao Yang touched his nose, after all, it is a newly established company, and it is impossible to dig people without paying a high price, “I will give you a few design drawings in a few days, you can see if you can complete it, if you can, you can try to make samples.” “Xiao Yang has seen a lot of beautiful shoes in his later life, anyway, it is not yet born, if you don’t take it out at this time, will it be kept for those big companies to design.”

“You can still draw!” Plank looked at Xiao Yang with a shocked expression.

“I can probably draw~” Xiao Yang glared fiercely, what expression, labor and management are people who have drawn little red flowers in kindergarten.

Ask for flowers and collect ~~~~ Tomorrow and the weekend, there is something to do, so it is possible to take a day off, and strive to be able to keep changing, in case of breakage, please forgive me, hahaha~
