The three-point line is really too close

Chapter 147 Flying Dragon Soars to the Clouds!The upcoming Loong generation!
In the past few years, this is already a result that is enough to become the top voter.

Behind Zhang Bolong is his former teammate in the Los Angeles Lakers - Kobe Bryant.

Kobe's popularity this year is also even hotter, especially in China, where his fan base is steadily increasing. In the first round of voting, he received a total of 124 million All-Star votes, ranking second.

As for the third and fourth places, they are the "little emperor" LeBron James from Cleveland and the previous two All-Star vote king Yao Ming.

The duo trailed slightly behind with 119 million and 114 million votes.

Compared with Yao Ming's votes, it is not difficult for people to find out.

Zhang Bolong's popularity transcends national boundaries.

The 180 million votes were not only because of his popularity in China.

Because most Huaxia fans will choose him and Yao Ming as the starters at the center and point guard positions.

But in fact, he had more than 60 more votes than Yao Ming.

This shows that Zhang Bolong's popularity in the Lighthouse Country is also top-notch!
On China's basketball forum, some fans even joked, "Sino-US friendship depends on Long Shuai" and "It is rare for two big countries to reach an agreement."

The upsurge caused by the announcement of the All-Star voting results once again made Zhang Bolong a hot topic in the Beacon Country.

All of a sudden, various advertisements and signings came in like snowflakes.

Freeman was overwhelmed by the "heavy snow" and was deeply involved, helping Zhang Bolong to select the best from the best.

This old man who is not young can't wait to grow a three-headed and six-armed man, and he realizes the value of life with pain and joy every day.

Sports giants such as Adidas and Nike, who missed Zhang Bolong, also held an internal discussion meeting after his popularity exploded again.

I heard that several department executives who were in charge of signing decisions were criticized and punished.

At this time, Zhang Bolong was in a building in Silicon Valley, quietly waiting for his own unboxing experience.

"Hello, Mr. Zhang, your first exclusive sneaker Loong generation sample shoes are in this box."

Under Armour's staff maintained a well-trained smile, and put a brand-new shoe box with exquisite packaging on the table.

Outside the shoe box, a mighty and extraordinary bronze-colored Chinese dragon is entrenched on it, with a thick texture like metal, revealing a strong Chinese style and ancient charm.

As soon as he saw this box, Zhang Bolong felt happy.

High-end, atmospheric, high-grade.

There are also traditional Chinese characteristics.

Good packaging itself is also a plus item for the product.

After looking at each other with a few people, he couldn't hold back his eagerness, and took out his combat boots directly.

What caught my eye was a pair of uncolored samples.

After the style is thoroughly finalized, Under Armor will design different color schemes and carry out large-scale or limited production and sales.

But even though it was only a semi-finished product, Zhang Bolong was still attracted by the style of this pair of shoes.

He didn't understand the various new technologies the designers were talking about.

What stable support module, shock-absorbing rebound module, carbon fiber torsion-resistant module...

These are Under Armor things.

All he knew was that this pair of small shoes was made based on his opinions on many times of trying them on. From head to toe, they condensed the top and latest technology of Under Armour.

Therefore, he only needs to pay attention to the appearance of the shoes.

For a pair of shoes that you like, many times, even being comfortable to wear is not the most important condition.

Good enough to be eye-catching.

After all, these shoes are also for sale. The more they are sold, the more prosperous they are, and Zhang Bolong will have more capital to do what he wants to do.

So, it has to be flamboyant enough.

With his vision more than ten years ahead of the times, Zhang Bolong also put forward many constructive suggestions during the design process.

There are quite a few proposals that even make professional designers feel ashamed.

He picked up the pair of pure white and flawless sample shoes, feeling the weight in his hand.

One thing to say, these shoes are not light.

But for a frequent changer like myself, the protection of the ankle is very important.

Its design at the ankle provides just the right amount of wrapping, which made Zhang Bolong very satisfied.

He looked around the shoe, front, back, left, and right, and put it down like a piece of art.

He is sure that, at least, these shoes can detonate the Chinese market.

There are many original designs of sneakers, among which, Zhang Bolong's favorite is the lifelike strap in the shape of a flying dragon.

This flying dragon not only brings excellent upper wrapping performance, but also the finishing touch of the whole pair of shoes.

Zhang Bolong can even imagine how domineering the colored flying dragon will be!

It’s not a loss just to buy it and put it home!
Having said that, it is also his selfishness to apply Huaxia's characteristics to his shoes.

The design sketch of this sneaker has caused some controversy in Under Armour.

Many American designers do not agree with this, because the dragon in most of their impressions is still the "evil dragon" that flaps its big wings in the West.

In this regard, Zhang Bolong tried his best to reject all opinions, and he specially asked people to reproduce the model of this flying dragon from domestic buildings.

Another reason why he was able to make up his mind to adopt this design was that the proposal given by these designers at the beginning was really... very hip.

He doesn't even want to wear it himself, so how can he expect others to buy it...

Don’t you see those sneakers and jerseys designed by Nike and Adidas in the future, it’s simply powerless to complain.

According to Zhang Bolong's personal preference, it is completely the same suit, like something produced on an assembly line.

The key is that shoes and clothes can be produced on an assembly line, so your designs can't be the same...

As the world's top manufacturer, it has been going farther and farther on the road of relying on its laurels, and its development is not as good as before.

He feels that the flagship styles of domestic Anta, Li-Ning and Peak are more attractive.

Not to mention hanging around, let him choose anyway, Zhang Bolong will definitely not pursue the so-called "big brands" in Europe and the United States.

"After the dragon took shape, our designers were full of praise. In addition, its color scheme is already in preparation. If it goes well, you can wear it for NBA games at the end of the year."

Zhang Bolong nodded with a smile, and shook hands with the staff of Under Armour.

What makes him happier is that such a design has been recognized.

If after the release, the old Americans are willing to eat this set, then he may not be able to promote it vigorously and put more elements with Chinese colors on his sneakers.

Let's also engage in cultural output on sneakers.

If these shoes sell well enough, then these crooked nuts will know,

Dragons, not just those Dragons in your west who have wings and breathe fire,

There is also Loong, who calls the wind and rain in China, and rides the clouds and fog!
