NBA: The Talent Burst from the Start

088. The world's top designer? No need, I will do it myself! (4 more for subscription~)

As soon as Lin Lei's voice fell, the scene suddenly became tense, and Lord Kan even jumped up.

I saw him stand up directly from the sofa, as if ready to attack Lin Lei at any time.

Looking at the aggressive black man in front of him, Lin Lei didn't feel any nervousness, but instead stood up from the sofa.

After Lin Lei stood up, Kanye froze in place, and his raised fist was slowly put down.

As for the reason, it is very simple - his height is only 1.73 meters, while Lin Lei is as high as 1.95 meters, which is more than a head taller than him!

The two are vastly different in size, strength, and size.

"Boy, do you know what you were talking about just now?"

Seeing that once he starts to move his hand, he is not an opponent at all, Kanye began to hope to regain face for himself in words:

"Even if nike with the largest market value met me, I had to respect it, even so, I unilaterally terminated the contract with them.

Those superstars have to give me face, including Kobe Bryant of your team, when they meet me, they have to call me – brother.

You're a kid who just entered the league, what's so arrogant? 99

What Kanye said is indeed true.

At the beginning, Kanye's partner was not Adidas, but Nike.

Because of Nike's influence, coupled with the fashion elements he founded, the coconut brand quickly became a household name.

However, after a few years of cooperation between the two, Kanye unilaterally announced the termination of the contract with Nike, and at the same time launched a comprehensive cooperation with Adi to create a new coconut brand.

With the launch of the two shoes, Coconut 350 and Coconut 750, the whole trend world instantly exploded.

Adi also opened a new door in the fashion industry because of these two pairs of shoes.

As for why the cooperation between Nike and Kanye ended in termination of the contract, it was because Kanye made conditions to the Nike Group after he created the first pair of coconuts for Nike.

Kanye: "The first generation of shoes is so popular, you have to pay more!

nike: "How much do you want to add?"

Kanye is no nonsense; "I want to take as much as Jordan, the brand you created for Jordan sells more than 2 billion a year, and Jordan can take a share of 100 million from it, why do my shoes sell so well every year? But can only get 4 million dead wages?

For Kanye's lion's big talk, Nike did not accept it: "We are a sports brand, Jordan is a basketball player, which is in line with the company's philosophy, and it is because he is so popular.

Kanye was unhappy at the time: "What is a basketball player? I'm still a rapper. My influence is more than Jordan's. Since you don't cherish it, I'll jump to Adi next door!"

So there is the next Adi coconut joint fashion shoes.

But this time, Adi just wanted Kanye to design a pair of sneakers, not a joint model, nor a coconut brand. Kanye's asking price was unreasonable and arrogant at the same time.

Looking at the arrogant black man in front of him, Lin Lei shook his head and said to Hones, who was beside him: "Hones, my sneakers, I make my own decisions, and now I announce to you that the new sneakers reject his design! 35

"what?"

Kanye never thought that Lin Lei would refuse so simply, and the whole person was a little overwhelmed.

In fact, with the birth of Lin Lei, even in the entertainment industry, the name is also very popular.

What's more, there is more than one billion Chinese market behind Lin Lei, which occupies 1/5 of the world's population, and the potential is huge.

As soon as Kanye heard that he was going to cooperate with Lin Lei, he was overjoyed. He also knew that this pair of shoes would be a big hit, and even far surpassed his coconut series, so he wanted to ask for a share.

Who would have thought that Lin Lei not only did not buy it, but did not even leave room for negotiation, but refused on the spot.

Kanye was naturally very unwilling to miss out on hundreds of millions of dollars in the blink of an eye, so he hurriedly looked at Lin Lei, his attitude was much more relaxed than before, and he took the initiative to smile:

"Little brother Lin Lei, don't get excited, there may be some misunderstanding between us.

I didn't have a good rest because I was writing until late last night, and today I'm talking a little bit of a mess. Please forgive me.

Otherwise, I don't want to split this pair of shoes, I want the 5 million, if this pair of shoes sells well, I'll split the next pair of shoes, do you think it's okay?""

"This, I see it!"

Hones, who was unable to speak on the side, was instantly happy when he heard the words.

If so, it will undoubtedly save the company a significant amount of expenses.

At the same time, the fame of Kanye and Lin Lei will also make this pair of shoes famous, even if they have not been made, they have become popular.

As a businessman, he had already discovered the business opportunities, so how could he refuse Kanye's concession.

However, Lin Lei shook his head again: "I said, no need."

There is an irresistible majesty in his words, even Kanye, who has seen countless big scenes, is completely cowardly at this moment.

"If that's not the case, I don't want the 5 million, I'll give you all the signing fee, and I'll design this pair of shoes for you for free. That's all right. 55

The people present were stunned when they heard the words.

As we all know, Kanye is not only very talented, but also a very arrogant person who values ​​money more than anything else, otherwise he would not have unilaterally terminated the contract with Nike.

But it is such a person, who actually backed down in front of Lin Lei, who had just entered the league, and spread it out, it is estimated that no one will believe it.

If this condition were changed to someone else, no one would refuse, but Lin Lei was different.

You must know that he is a very focused, and very time conscious person.

Usually, Lin Lei wakes up every day except in the arena and goes home to sleep.

And the man who called himself a master in front of him actually made him wait for hours, and his attitude was so arrogant that he didn't take Lin Lei seriously at all.

As early as in the process of waiting, Lin Lei completely lost his patience.

The opportunity has been given, but since some people are shameless, don't blame others for disrespecting them!

0..0

"Lin Lei, why don't we give Kanye a chance?

As a businessman, Hones naturally would not give up such an opportunity, and comforted Lin Lei with a negotiating tone.

Lin Lei ignored Kanye, who was constantly apologizing, but looked at Adidas president Hones and said directly:

"I won't be working with him again on the sneaker thing."

"Then who do you want to work with? Kanye is the best designer in the world, and I can't imagine anyone more talented than him. 35

"NanNan..."

In the face of Hones' inquiry, Lin Lei laughed again: "Since it is my own sneaker, of course I designed it myself!""

"what?"

Lin Lei's words were earth-shattering, and everyone at the scene was stunned again.

It is undeniable that Lin Lei is extremely talented in basketball, and it can even be said that he is the best rookie in 10 years.

But sports talent does not mean design talent. The so-called interlaced is like a mountain, how about designing sneakers? It is still unknown.

The first customized sneakers must be a hit in order to be accepted by consumers, otherwise the signing fee of tens of millions will be wasted.

Perhaps aware of Honesse's idea, Lin Lei glanced at the design blueprints on the table. These are the drafts and design conditions prepared by Adi in advance. I hope Kanye can improve it on this basis.

He picked up the blueprint and looked at it for a moment, then threw it all on the ground.

"These blueprints are a pile of rubbish!

As a Chinese person, my exclusive sneakers must have the characteristics of Chinese elements, if I want to do it, I will make it unique!" Corpse.
