Legendary basketball manager

"Is it such a big show?"

Shen Fei asked jokingly.

"It's too late, my father is worried about me going out alone, I can't hold him back..."

Ajiali pulled a strand of bangs behind her ears.

Today she is wearing a simple dress, and she looks fairy-like.

Even under the night, Ajiali is still dazzlingly beautiful.

"I... I sent you a text message before, don't get me wrong..."

"I just want to exchange Christmas apples with you."

Ajiali said suddenly.

Shen Fei was taken aback when he heard the words, then shook his head with a smile.

The previous text message, combined with the time it was sent, was indeed too ambiguous.

"But I've misunderstood."

"Look at me, I came here from Houston in the middle of the night, isn't it just a complete misunderstanding?"

Shen Fei still said jokingly.

"I didn't realize something was wrong after I finished posting... Then what do you say?"

Ajiali asked, her cheeks flushed slightly.

Fortunately, her group of followers stood far away.

Otherwise, Ajiali's current appearance as a little woman might shock their jaws.

"Okay, I was joking."

"This is the only apple I prepared this year, and it's for you."

Shen Fei stretched out the right hand that was originally carried on his back, and in his hand was a very delicate gift box.

The two then exchanged apples.

"Tomorrow morning, I still have important things to do, so I have to fly back to Houston immediately."

Shen Fei said lightly.

"Um..."

"That... I'm very happy that you came to see me!"

Ajiali's bright eyes rolled, and she mustered up her courage to say.

"I am also very happy."

Shen Fei smiled slightly, then turned around.ready to leave.

"Wait a moment."

Ajiali spoke suddenly.

Shen Fei turned around and smelled a faint fragrance.

The next moment, Ajiali stood on tiptoe, like a dragonfly touching the water, and left a sweet kiss on his cheek.

Before Shen Fei could react, the king's daughter turned around and trotted away.

Shen Fei froze on the spot for a few seconds.

"Scared me, the first kiss almost disappeared."

After a long time, he muttered to himself.

But the corners of his mouth raised, as if he was protesting against Shen Fei's insincere words.

............

In the early morning of the next day, Fei Shen held his first shareholder meeting after taking over Under Armor.

In the conference, Asian youths vividly reflected the "three fires for new officials to take office".

From the choice of brand spokesperson, to the design concept, to the way of publicity...Shen Fei has made very detailed and bold deployments in all aspects.

In addition, he also invited several top designers from China.

"All the next products must embody Chinese elements if they want to get my approval."

"So...all designers, you are all the top talents in the world, and you should work hard to study new artistic elements during this time."

"If you feel that you are not qualified for this job, you can resign with me at any time."

"However, you will also miss a miracle in the history of business - Under Armor will become an existence comparable to Nike and Adidas within a year!"

Shen Fei said seriously and firmly.

After he finished speaking, the shareholders, executives, and employees at the scene were all stunned.

Obviously, it seems too unbelievable for Under Armor to become the top3 sports brand.

After all, according to last month's data, Nike's volume is about a hundred times that of Under Armor!

After about 20 seconds of silence, an executive suddenly applauded.

Immediately afterwards, more and more applause broke out in the venue one after another.

[Painting success! ]

Shen Fei thought to himself.

However, after everyone accepted his grand blueprint, various problems followed.

"Boss, the publicity method you just mentioned will require a huge investment, and the publicity team needs financial support!"

asked the Publicity Director.

"Naturally, we fully support it! This kind of advertising method will inevitably cause huge losses in the early stage, but in the later stage, we will be able to monopolize most of the market. Don't be afraid of burning money, and burn it boldly!"

Shen Fei replied.

"Boss, the names you mentioned are too different!"

"People like Harden in NBA, Neymar in football, and Dwayne Johnson cost a lot of money to sign. But people like Pogba and Mbappe, I have never heard of them."

asked the commercial director.

"Famous people mean high signing fees, but even if it's liquidated damages, we have to snatch these people over."

"The less famous ones, or the ones you've never heard of, are young football players. You can find out who they are by asking a football scout. These guys sign long-term contracts uniformly, and the liquidated damages can be set as high as they want. high."

Shen Fei replied.

The reason why he only recommends newcomers in the football world is because of ncaa regulations-players cannot endorse commercial contracts, nor can they obtain income from various commercial opportunities.

But Shen Fei has only done in-depth research on basketball and football, so he can only start with football.

For next year's rookies like Leonard, Klay Thompson, and Jimmy Butler, he plans to wait until the "March Madness" is over before making a move!

"Boss, I have done in-depth research on Chinese culture, and I like the image of 'unicorn' very much. Can I apply it to the new product line?"

"Boss, this air vest is too ridiculous! Is it really going to be produced? I'm worried that the market will give us a negative evaluation!"

......

All kinds of problems came one after another.

Shen Fei patiently answered various questions one by one.

No way, in order to help Under Armor get out of the circle in a short time, he threw out too many advanced ideas in one go.

Although these people present are all top-notch industry elites, it is very difficult to understand so many new concepts at once.

Like that air vest.

It is the hottest model of the luxury brand lv in the original time and space.

It not only created a lot of revenue for the brand, but also became a hot topic of discussion in the fashion industry, and finally broke the circle.

Many people who don't know anything about luxury goods have also learned about this air vest and the existence of lv through various channels.

In fact, this product has no technological content at all, and its appearance is not beautiful, yet Shen Fei puts a price of 4000 US dollars on it!

This directly frightened the designers of Under Armour.

It is inevitable for them to have doubts.

Fortunately, after Shen Fei answered patiently, everyone basically got the answers they wanted!

This shareholders meeting lasted for a whole day.

At the end, Shen Fei, who was always full of energy, also felt a little tired.

But young Asians believe that after today's arrangement and deployment, Under Armour's future will be bright!

............

Another day later, Shen Fei drove to the training hall.

Today, the Rockets' two new aids - Ben Wallace and Yi Jianlian will both participate in team training.

The purpose of Shen Fei's trip is to see the two of them.

When he arrived, the generals of the Rockets had already finished simple warm-up activities and were about to start routine "traversing" training.

However, as soon as Shen Fei appeared in the training hall, they all stopped what they were doing at the same time.

"Good morning! Manager!"

"Boss, are you here?"

"It's been a long time since you came to see our training!"

......

Without exception, the players all welcomed Shen Fei very much.

After all, most of the people present have either received his appreciation or received his help.

"You practice your own, don't worry about me."

Shen Fei smiled and gestured.

Later, he and Mark Jackson watched the training from the sidelines.

"Ben and Yi came here yesterday, how are they doing?"

Shen Fei asked.

"em..."

"that is..."

Mark Jackson hesitated to speak.

"Speak straight."

Shen Fei simply said.

"Looking at yesterday's training alone, neither the old nor the young will be able to enter the rotation."

"I have a top-level defensive awareness, but my legs and feet can no longer keep up. It's okay to play for a minute or two occasionally."

"Yi...boss, let me just say it straight. I guess you may want to continue to expand the Chinese market, so you signed him? But he is not a player at the same level as Yao Ming."

"Yi is not only a matter of strength now, he also needs some time to adjust his mentality."

Mark Jackson said seriously.

Shen Fei nodded upon hearing this.

The performance of the two was basically in line with his expectations.

Daben's problem is easy to solve, but Yi Jianlian is more troublesome.

This season, he has been criticized too much.

Some disputes even spread to China across the ocean.

For example... Yi Jianlian's age issue.

If he can't untie his knot, even if the system is hacked, it won't help him.

"In the recent period, give Ben Wallace some playing time and let him adapt to the Rockets game."

"After a while, I will give you a big Ben at the dpoy level."

"As for Yi, I'll talk to him later, and I'll tell you how to arrange it later."

Shen Fei arranged.

Not only did Mark Jackson have no objection, but he was pleasantly surprised.

[Big Ben at the dpoy level?There is such a good thing? ]

He thought so in his heart.

"Well, waiting for your good news!"

Mark Jackson smiled.

Afterwards, the two watched the entire training session together.

It is worth mentioning that in the final group match, Yi Jianlian also got a little playing time.

He faced Tucker in the game, and the scene was a bit embarrassing...

Under the defense of the shoe king, Yi Jianlian seemed cautious and did not dare to make any moves at all.

After 5 minutes of the game, he didn't even take a shot, and only contributed two rebounds and one assist.

Whether it was Shen Fei or Mark Jackson, they could see the extreme lack of self-confidence in Yi Jianlian's body language.

............

After the training, Shen Fei immediately stayed with Ah Lian and asked to have a talk with him.

Yi Jianlian did not refuse.

The two then walked to an empty court, chatting while shooting.

"Do you know why I traded you here?"

Shen Fei asked while dribbling the ball.

Allen shook his head.

"There are no outsiders here, so I have nothing to say."

"You probably don't know, but it took a lot of work to get you to Houston to get that four-way deal done.

"This is not for the championship this year, but for the Olympic Games two years later."

"I hope that when the time comes, you can stand beside Dayao and Shuhao and become the pillar of the Huaxia men's basketball team."

Shen Fei said solemnly.

While he was speaking, he kept observing Yi Jianlian's reaction.

Shen Fei found that Ah Lian's eyes lit up when he heard about the Huaxia Men's Basketball Team!

He knew that the current Yi Jianlian was not good at words, so he continued on his own:

"I know that the recent age turmoil has had a great impact on you, and there are also many voices of doubt in Huaxia."

"But what I'm trying to say is ... nobody cares if you were born in '84 or '87 as long as you can play at your level on the court."

"Moreover, your talent is second only to Dayao in the whole of China. You are fully capable of doing better!"

Ah Lian suddenly raised his head, obviously touched by Shen Fei.

"But... I can't find the feeling of last season. I practiced hard for a summer, but it seems that there is no effect..."

"Also, it's getting harder for me to communicate with my teammates, I don't know what to say to them."

Yi Jianlian finally confided in his heart.

Shen Fei smiled slightly after hearing this.

As long as the problem is raised, everything is simple, just solve the problem!
