Xiao Yang picked up the design drafts and could not help but feel smug." Adidas, you still want to snatch Kobe from me? Bah! No one can snatch my cake from my pocket. Let alone Kobe, in the future, the NBA stars, even if I don't say all of them, I want at least 80% of them."
Xiao Yang thought about how most of the star players in the NBA would have to call him boss in the future. He was drooling, and his face was full of infatuation. Wouldn't he be the godfather of the NBA in the future? Haha.
"I can't think about it anymore. I have to strike while the iron is hot and draw a few more pairs of sneakers. After all, the specialty store can't only sell one pair of shoes.”Xiao Yang wiped his face and decided to design a few more classic designs for Anderma before his excitement dissipated.
Xiao Yang was actually quite fond of the Air Force One. It had a simple aesthetic, but unfortunately, the Air Force One had been on the market for many years. However, this also showed that this model was a classic. From 1982, when the first Air Force One was launched, until Xiao Yang's time travel, for decades, almost every once in a while, a replica of the Air Force One would be released by the company, especially the classic all-white version.
"F * ck, think about what else you can earn…No, classic sneakers.”Xiao Yang scratched his head." Yes, in the future, if we want to open up the market for Anderma, we can't go through the normal route. We need something that will make people's eyes light up. Something that will make people's eyes light up, yes, stunning…" Xiao Yang thought as he bit his pencil.
"Yeah, in terms of stunning, who can compare to the debut of this pair of sneakers!”Xiao Yang's eyes lit up, and he began to draw on the paper.
Soon, another pair of sneakers appeared under Xiao Yang's pen. The uncolored design looked plain and unremarkable, giving the impression that it was from the streets. If one looked closely, one would even realize that the two shoes were not completely symmetrical. The design of the left and right feet was different.
Xiao Yang continued to color the draft. Soon, a pair of sneakers with different colors appeared on the paper. That's right, it was the stunning T-Mac3 in red and blue.
In the 2004 All-Star Game, when McGrady walked onto the court in a TMC3 in mandarin duck colors, there were exclamations off the court. Some people even thought that McGrady was still asleep and had worn the wrong shoes.
That year's All-Star game was stolen by a pair of shoes. Many years later, people forgot about that year's All-Star game, but a pair of red and blue shoes that were not symmetrical was firmly imprinted in the fans 'memories.
"Whether or not Anderma can amaze the world this time will all depend on you guys.”Xiao Yang flicked the sketch in his hand. These were the most iconic pair of sneakers in the future. Now that Xiao Yang had brought them out in advance, he was hoping to help An Dema survive among the many giants. As long as An Dema was given time and space to develop, Xiao Yang was confident that he could step on all of the other giants in the future.
For the next two days, Xiao Yang shut himself up in his office. He did not draw any more basketball shoes. It was enough for a store to have two pairs of core basketball shoes. There had to be some other ordinary ones, right? If there was no comparison, how could there be a difference? Xiao Yang rubbed his chin and thought about a saying he had heard in his previous life. It was all about being matched by peers.
Xiao Yang, who did not draw basketball shoes, did draw a few classic sneakers from later generations, such as the Yeezy. Haha, Xiao Yang felt a little sorry for Adidas. He was always copying their shoes until he felt embarrassed.
However, Xiao Yang could not give up on the coconut series, which was such a huge gold mine. Yeezy had unlimited possibilities. It was like diy, and there were many classic models. Whether it was the Yeezy750, Yeezy350, Yeezy950, or V2, as long as you had a pair of coconut shoes, whether you wore jeans or casual pants, they would match the coconut perfectly.
Xiao Yang could already imagine the explosive sales after the opening of the Anderma store. The next step was to see how the preparations were going on Plank's side. If everything went well, they would be able to produce the samples very soon.
Xiao Yang took the sketch to Plank and checked on his situation.
---，---
"You said you drew this in the past two days?”Plank held the sketch that Xiao Yang had brought over with a face full of shock and confusion. No matter how much he tried to think, he could not imagine that a team owner could design such a stunning and awesome shoe. Regardless of the unique sole design of the Heavenly Foot, just looking at the blueprint, he could imagine how strong the grip of the shoes was. There was also the eye-catching mandarin duck color matching of the T-MC3. At first, Plank thought that there were two pairs, but after a closer look, Plank could not help but admire Xiao Yang's bold and genius creativity. He was almost 100% sure that once this pair of shoes went on sale, it would definitely dazzle everyone's eyes.
What surprised Plank the most was the design drawings of Yeezy's pair. Although there was no finished product, just seeing the drawings could not hide the unique charm of this series. Although Plank did not know much about fashion, it did not hinder the dazzling fashion sense of this series.
Plank believed that this series would definitely become the Air Force One of Anderma. Basically, there would be a few models produced every year. This series 'ability to attract money was definitely stronger than the previous two pairs. It could even become Anderma's cash cow.
" Haha, I told you I knew how to design. You didn't believe me!" Xiao Yang rubbed his nose arrogantly. Seeing Plank's constipated expression, Xiao Yang was inexplicably excited.
"With these shoes as the flagship product of An Dema, I believe that our early market development will be smoother than expected.”Plank was still very excited. Not long ago, he was still a small businessman who was about to go bankrupt. Now, he was very likely to become the CEO of a new sports brand manufacturer. The rollercoaster of his career really made his heart unable to bear it.
"There's one more thing. A few days ago, I signed an endorsement contract for the company. Although the other party hasn't replied yet, I think it shouldn't be a problem.”Xiao Yang thought that Kobe would probably give him a message soon.
Just as he was thinking about it, Kobe called.
" Hey, is that so? Have you thought about it?"
"Yes, yes. You guys have to come over later. Okay, no problem.”
"Come to the Hilton Hotel. I'm here now. Okay, see you later.”
……
……
After hanging up the phone, Xiao Yang raised his eyebrows at Plank."Our spokesperson will be here soon ~"
"Who is it?" Plank looked at Xiao Yang in confusion.
"Kobe Bryant, a player on our team.”Xiao Yang was a little excited. Kobe, signing him would undoubtedly help Anderma expand its market, especially with Kobe's fan base in China and Europe. It would also help Anderma's global expansion even faster.
"Kobe?" Plank scratched his head. He only played football, and he only knew top players like Jordan and Magic." Are they all stars?”Plank felt that the player that Xiao Yang personally went to take down must be an NBA star.
"Not yet. He's the rookie we picked this year. However, he would definitely become an All-Star next year at the latest.”Xiao Yang believed that if he gave Kobe enough time to grow up, he would become the terrifying Black Mamba faster than in his previous life.
"Don't worry, I'll definitely not lose anything.”Xiao Yang knew what Plank was thinking when he looked at him with his big eyes. He said it in advance. Throughout history, Kobe had been promoted to the All-Star in his second year, and he was even in the starting lineup. It was easy to imagine how much fans Kobe's style of playing attracted. His autographed shoes would definitely sell well, and signing him would definitely be a profitable deal.
" Alright, you're the one who's paying, so you have the final say." Plank spread his hands. No matter when, the rich were the bosses.
"By the way, Kobe's contract is for seven years and 80 million dollars. The company can't afford this money, so I'll pay it first. Just treat it as a loan from me to the company. I'll pay it back later when I earn money.”Xiao Yang said as he looked at Plank, whose eyes were widening.
Plank opened his mouth, wanting to say something, but his lips trembled. He gave up the idea of persuading Xiao Yang to withdraw the contract. He could tell that Xiao Yang's decision was set in stone, so he nodded helplessly and agreed to Xiao Yang's decision.
Xiao Yang rolled his eyes." I invested 5 million USD in Anderma before, but it seems like it's not enough. How about this, I'll add another 95 million USD to make it 100 million. After all, we need to build Anderma flagship stores in various places. The rent and employee expenses are also quite high, and the factory's contract manufacturing also requires a deposit.”He looked at Plank." I'll also keep 3% of your shares for you.”After all, they were business partners. Xiao Yang did not want to ruin his relationship with Plank, so he decided to give him some benefits.
Plank had suffered a huge blow today. He had experienced many twists and turns. Now, Xiao Yang had suddenly told him that his small company, which was originally worth five million, had become a big company worth a hundred million. Although his shares were low, their value had indeed increased many times. He had become a millionaire in an instant.
This is Plank. I'm panicking.
Something happened in the company, and it was quite serious. It was estimated that several departments would be laid off. Now, his mood was a little complicated. During this period, he could only update one chapter a day. He needed some time to calm down.
