The next morning, Xiao Yang woke up early and looked at himself in the mirror for a long time. He sized him up and grinned foolishly.
"I didn't expect this guy to be so handsome. People would believe him if he said he was a Hollywood star on the street.”She was enjoying herself for a long time, and before she left, she even cheered herself on."You're the most handsome. Try your best not to be single today ~ Good luck ~"
He opened the garage, picked up a random car, and set off. In any case, Xiao Yang did not think that 1996 cars could arouse much of his passion. Even luxury cars that cost tens of millions of dollars were nothing to him. He had been in this world for a long time, so he only treated the luxury cars in the garage as a means of transportation. The only difference was that most of these luxury cars were automatic transmissions. In this era, automatic transmissions were usually only available in high-end cars, so Xiao Yang did not feel so tired driving them.
"Hey, are you up yet? I'm already on my way to pick you up.”Xiao Yang was on the phone as he drove." Yes, yes. I just woke up. You're up early, ha." Charaz yawned and looked up at the clock on the wall of the apartment. It was only 7:30.
"I'm just afraid of traffic. You have to know that this is Los Angeles. You live in the city. If I don't pick you up earlier, I'm afraid that the two of us will have to go out for supper today.”Xiao Yang pursed his lips helplessly.
" Haha, it's not that exaggerated. But it's not easy to get stuck in traffic if you're early," Charaz replied with a smile.
"That's all for now. Wash up first. I'll be back at your apartment in about an hour. We can have breakfast together." Xiao Yang was a little annoyed. He had woken up at six in the morning, but he could only see Charaz at nine. Other than the half an hour he spent packing, he had spent more than two hours on the road, and that was without much traffic.
"As expected of the second largest city in the United States. The traffic in 1996 was so annoying. Should I consider buying a plane as a means of transportation?”It was another traffic light. Xiao Yang was speechless as he looked at the queue at the intersection that was starting to get a little congested.
"Yeah, I'll buy a helicopter when I have the chance. I remember Kobe's mode of transportation was a helicopter.”Xiao Yang did not consider a helicopter worth a few million dollars as a big expense. Instead, he was considering whether he should take some time to get a helicopter pilot's license. It seemed that many rich people liked to have some astounding skills.
Playing golf and driving yachts were not new anymore. Piloting airplanes was not uncommon. Elon Musk, the founder of Tesla, had even started playing with rockets. Xiao Yang's thoughts began to wander again. Should he start a side business to play?
In the future, the rich people started to cross the border one by one. Steve jobs left Apple and started Pixar to make cartoons. Elon Musk didn't start PayPal but started cars and rockets. Ding Sanshi, who didn't want to be the richest man, went to raise pigs.
Xiao Yang rubbed his chin." Yes, I need to find another way. Otherwise, it would be a waste of my golden finger as a transmigrator if I just attack the Los Angeles Clippers.”
" Well, I can use my brain to think about the NBA," Xiao Yang thought quietly. Since he was stuck in a traffic jam, he might as well think about his future path and plan for it. "Hey, my biggest advantage is that I know all the star players in the future. If I only had one team, although I could put all these star players together, it would be a waste of resources.”
The game could not be done by piling up star players. If the star players of the same team gathered together, the ball rights would definitely be divided. It might cause a series of butterfly effects, causing the star players who could have played to disappear because they did not have the ball rights. Xiao Yang had considered this before, so he did not let West trade for the star players from 1996. O'Neal, Nash, Peja, and Z. These players did not have a high order. If they wanted, West could have been traded to the Los Angeles team, but it was useless. They were a bunch of semi-finished products with great potential and could not be used.
"Set up an economic company? Sign them all?" Xiao Yang thought, No, no, the league would never agree to the owner of a certain team setting up a management company. In the future, Pelinka would even terminate his contract with his own players in order to become the general manager of the Laker.
" Oh, right, isn't there a counterexample like Boss Qiao?" Xiao Yang slapped his head." I can set up or acquire a sporting goods company, and sign them all before those big names in the future become famous." Haha, I'm really a genius!"
Other companies had to consider the development of these players, whether they could play well, and the appropriate size of the contract. For Xiao Yang, this was a completely open-book exam. No, this was basically a test where the answers were handed down for him to copy. If he did not get full marks, he would be letting himself down.
"It's settled then. We'll start a sports company first.”Xiao Yang waved his fist. He still had three billion dollars of assets that he had not touched. He could forget about the assets of the two companies, which were estimated to have a market value of tens of billions of dollars. With his little money, if he really wanted to acquire them, he would probably only be able to make a splash in the market.
"Puma? No, no, it was also an old company. It probably wouldn't be cheap.”Xiao Yang shook his head." Converse? Reebok? " That's not good either." Xiao Yang felt a little annoyed. Did he have to get a new brand? No, just thinking about it would be troublesome. He was not that hardworking. Xiao Yang only wanted to be a boss who was only responsible for paying money and not doing things.
" Oh, no." Xiao Yang slapped his forehead. He suddenly thought of another brand. It was the brand that Ku Li had endorsed in the future, An De Ma. If he remembered correctly, An De Ma was not like its predecessor, who was a brand founded in the 1940s and 1950s." I think An De Ma was founded in 1996, right?"”Xiao Yang scratched his head and thought hard.
The company was founded in 1996 by an American football star, Kevin Plank. At first, Under Armour only made tights and some sports equipment to be worn in sportswear. It was not until the 21st century that it entered the shoe market to compete with giants like Naike and Adi. In 2015, Under Armour surpassed Adi in one fell swoop and became the world's sports brand second only to Naike. Its market value had exceeded 100 billion USD at its peak.
"Go back and ask someone if Kevin Plank has founded Anderma. If he has, go buy it. I reckon a newly established company isn't worth much. Let's see if he'll faint after spending a few million dollars.”Xiao Yang laughed evilly.
" If it's not established, I'll get him up first, then throw in some money to get Plank to work for me. Haha, I'll happily wait for the listing to make money." The person who works the mind governs the person, and the person who works the body governs the person. Xiao Yang was not stupid. He had to be comfortable after spending money. In his opinion, those who spent money and worked hard were the biggest fools.

As soon as he was in a good mood, the road was clear as well. Xiao Yang happily drove to Charaz's white-collar apartment in downtown Los Angeles.
Although Charaz had entered the industry at the age of 18, he had always been a nobody. It was only in the past two years that he had started to take on jobs such as movie advertisements. Therefore, he could not afford to buy a mansion. He only rented a hotel-style apartment nearby that was relatively safe.
" Ding dong!" Xiao Yang, who was standing outside the door, suddenly felt a little nervous. Although he often chatted with Charaz on the phone and the two of them got along quite well, strictly speaking, today was only the second time they had met. In the future, this situation would be called an online romance, but the two of them were not chatting on the computer.
" I'm coming, I'm coming. Haha, I thought you'd only arrive at around nine." Before she opened the door, she heard Charlizards running in his slippers.
" Ka!" The door swung open, and Xiao Yang saw a girl standing before him. She was wearing a silk one-piece nightgown with a knee-length skirt, a lady's blouse, and a pair of cute bunny slippers. Her skin was as fair as snow, and her blonde hair accentuated her beauty. The girl smiled playfully and winked at Xiao Yang." Haha, I'm not done packing yet. Come on in." It was Charles.
Gulp ~ Xiao Yang swallowed his saliva. Damn it, was it because he had been single for so long that he felt that Charise was even more beautiful than last time!
He scratched his head and followed Charaz into the South African diamond's apartment.
Xiao Yang sniffled as soon as he entered the room. The air in the room seemed to carry a sweet fragrance. It was so lame that he despised himself.
"You haven't had breakfast yet, right? You can watch TV in the living room first. I'll go make breakfast.”Charaz pushed Xiao Yang into the living room and pressed him against the sofa. He turned around and walked into the kitchen with a smile.
"You press me during the day, and I'll press you at night.”Xiao Yang rubbed his nose and fantasized.
