Chapter 588
"Well...well...congratulations then!...Yes, I'm very happy too, and I will cooperate with the publicity..."
Shen Huan talked for a while, then hung up the phone with a smile.
When she got off the plane at noon, Shen Huan received a call from Wattanad.
On the phone, Wattnad excitedly told Shen Huan that in less than 10 hours, the first batch of 2 million Shen Huan version T-shirts had been sold out.
Especially on the Chinese side.
Three hours after the game ended, all 200,000 T-shirts belonging to China were sold out.
If calculated according to the official launch time, it would have been sold out in less than an hour.
Japan Ben and Taiji Country were also very popular, and their 400,000 T-shirts were sold out within three hours.
Next came the 500,000 pieces from Europe, which were snatched up by the queue before noon.
The last 700,000 pieces from North America and 200,000 pieces from South America were all bought by enthusiastic fans who queued up within an hour of the store opening in the morning.
Especially in California, the home base of the Lakers, and also a Chinese home base, the 100,000 T-shirts allocated were the fastest sold out in history.
Even though California has a purchase limit of 2 pieces per person, it can't stop the fans' enthusiasm.
Many parents bring their children, one for themselves and one for their children.
Those who are 12 or 13 years old are better, they can wear the small size 160 cm.
But children aged seven or eight have no choice but to buy them back first and tie them into their pants to wear them reluctantly.
In fact, the store clerk also advised these children that there is no need to come to buy it so early and wait until two years later.
But children are the most stubborn people in the world. They just refuse to do it. Especially when they saw the Chinese boy wearing a T-shirt last night, they thought it was very, very cool.
It’s impossible not to buy it.
Just like that, all 2 million T-shirts were sold out before they arrived in one day.
Although the next batch of 3 million pieces is already being transported one after another, it will take at least two or three days to arrive in each country.
China, Japan, and Taichi did not receive preferential treatment. The first batch was shipped directly to Adidas as far away as Europe and America, and they took the last batch.
This caused countless fans and fans of Shen Huan to complain on the Adidas website, scolding them for their shamelessness in order to make money.
Why is there no home field advantage at all!?
Vatnad was in pain and happy.
President Dogen was even more happy and danced a little.
We agreed to Wattanad's plan to sign Shen Huan, and it seems there is absolutely no problem now. However, since Shen Huan will not play in the NBA after this year, it will be easy for others to find fault with this lifetime contract.
Even though Shen Huan is one of the best mathematicians in the world, Adidas is a sports company after all. If it has nothing to do with sports, it would still seem a bit awkward.
Looking at it now, Shen Huan’s ability to carry goods is super strong!
Two million T-shirts were sold out in less than a day, and the number of pre-orders alone exceeded 5 million, not to mention those who called to inquire.
This is only available in some big cities. Adidas stores in small cities didn't even have time to distribute T-shirts, and they were intercepted by stores in big cities and snatched them away.
If it sinks to the third-tier market, sales can increase much further.
In the Chinese market alone, there is at least a demand for more than 2 million pieces.
So Daogen simply ordered the production department in China to place an additional order of 10 million pieces.
Including the original 10 million pieces, the total is 20 million pieces.
If they can all be sold successfully, it will be a total sales of 1 billion US dollars!
This does not include the "Special Edition to Congratulate Shen Huan for Proving Fermat's Last Theorem" that will be launched soon. This number has also been set by Daogen at 3 million pieces worldwide.
It was originally planned that 1 million pieces would be enough, but now it seems that it is not enough at all.
But it is a pity that the quantity of 3 million pieces cannot be increased, otherwise the special edition will be worthless and have no meaning.
Of course, the price is definitely much more expensive. The special version just adds the symbols and formulas of Fermat's Last Theorem on the back, as well as the date of Shen Huan's proof, etc., so the price is increased to US$100 a piece.
Three million pieces would equal sales of US$300 million.
As a limited edition special model, if it is purely aimed at fans, it may seem a bit much at first glance.
However, given the significance of Fermat's Last Theorem, it is definitely not just fans who want to buy and collect it. I don't know how many young people will like this special T-shirt.
In fact, according to a survey by Adidas, at least one-fifth of the people who bought Shen Huan's T-shirts on this day are not fans. In China, this number has to be expanded to one-half.
This also shows how big Shen Huan’s base is.
If all 20 million regular models and 3 million special models are sold out within half a year, with a sales volume of 1.3 billion US dollars, then Daogen will really be stable, and no one will talk about being with Shen Huan again. There is something wrong with the contract.
This was what Wattnad thought, so he called Shen Huan so happily.
Shen Huan was on her way to San Francisco when she received the call.
San Francisco is right next door to Los Angeles. In fact, it is also a port city where the Chinese first landed in the United States more than 100 years ago, so there are also many Chinese here.
The home court of the Golden State Warriors is in San Francisco, not the Golden State. The Golden State here refers to San Francisco.
The distance between San Francisco and Los Angeles is almost 600 kilometers.
For such a journey, even if it is connected by plane in China, it is basically a luxury bus or high-speed rail.
But Americans are not like that. They like to fly wherever they go.
We gathered from Los Angeles at ten o'clock in the morning and arrived in San Francisco at 12 o'clock. After getting on the bus waiting at the airport, the Lakers drove to the hotel.
For others, the Golden State Warriors and Los Angeles Lakers are symbols of two cities. Even if they are both in the same state, it is absolutely impossible for a fan to support both teams at the same time.
But for Shen Huan, San Francisco is also his home court.
This morning he received news that more than 10,000 tickets for the Golden State Warriors' first home game at the Oracle Arena had been bought by Chinese people.
The Chase Center is still under construction. The Oracle Arena, the old arena of the Golden State Warriors, has a normal capacity of 20,000 people and a maximum capacity of 25,000.
Now more than 40% of the tickets are reserved by Chinese people. Who do you think they come to support?
No wonder before departure, in addition to the Lakers players, even Buss was smiling brightly.
When the Golden State Warriors face the Lakers, half of their home court advantage is gone. Can they be unhappy?
