Liu Lang didn't have to think about the gambling plan proposed by Lin Zequan. According to normal historical development, it only took Nike two short years after signing Jordan three years later to reach a profit of over 100 million US dollars, let alone now.
He was involved.
Needless to say about shoe design, this kind of design that is completely beyond this era is enough to double the profit of the other party, and he will soon ask the company to sign a contract with Jordan. In this era, the salaries of basketball stars are not high, with the highest every year
It only costs 6 to 7 million US dollars. The endorsement fee for signing a rookie who has just entered the NBA is 5 to 6 million US dollars. This kind of "migrant worker" price to sign the basketball god is simply a bargain.
"Okay, then I'll go find them two!"
Lin Zequan nodded and said.
"Brother Lin, change it when you sign the contract with them. Of the minimum 5% share, I only want 5% of Nike, and the remaining 1% belongs to you!"
Liu Lang said directly.
"What?"
Lin Zequan jumped three feet high after hearing this.
"Just give me one percent?"
Lin Zequan never thought that the other party would give him 1% of the shares.
"Liu Lang, do you know how much this one percent share is worth?"
Lin Zequan asked.
"How much is it worth? Brother Lin, do you want to hear my truth?"
Liu Lang smiled.
"The truth? What truth?"
The other party didn't understand something.
"In my plan, as long as Nike follows my design, it will grow into a company no less than AD in the next five years, and it will be enough to become the world's number one sports brand in the next ten years. You think the value of such a company is
How much? I’m afraid it’s no less than tens of billions of dollars!”
Liu Lang did not "tell the truth". In fact, thirty years later, Nike's market value has exceeded 100 billion US dollars, making it a veritable top 100 company in the world.
"Worth tens of billions of dollars?"
Even Lin Zequan can't imagine that this company, which can only be considered a second- or third-rate company in the United States, will develop to such a scale within ten years. In his opinion, a market value of several hundred million US dollars would be good, but even so, a hundred million
One-third of the shares were worth several million, so Liu Lang casually handed him millions of dollars. Not many people could do it with such courage.
"Brother Lin, talents are priceless. If you help me make money, you are my own people. I will never be stingy with my own people!"
Liu Lang said with a smile.
"One of our own...!"
Being able to be called one of Liu Lang's own, Lin Zequan actually felt a sense of pride at this moment.
Although he had only been in contact with Liu Lang for a few days, he was already attracted by his personality charm. In fact, let alone him, wasn't it the same for Huo Tianting, Sun Mingren and others?
In the eyes of outsiders, the other person is just a five-year-old child with an IQ that cannot be compared with others. He is enviable at best. But anyone who has been in contact with Liu Lang for a long time will find out that his ability
Far from it, especially beyond that
The imagination of this era is beyond the reach of anyone. The value that Transformers alone can bring in the future is immeasurable, not to mention the design of sports shoes. These are all money, and they are all
Huge wealth measured in billions.
But Lin Zequan also discovered that Liu Lang didn't seem to be very enthusiastic about money. The simplest example was that he casually gave 10,000 Hong Kong dollars to the three ordinary staff members just to let them bring more information.
What does this action mean? Firstly, it means that Liu Lang does not value money, and secondly, Liu Lang will never care about the law in order to achieve his goal.
He was not greedy for money and would do anything to achieve his goals. This reminded Lin Zequan of those emperors who made great contributions in ancient times.
Such people are scary and have an irresistible attraction. They are scary because they are strong-willed and will definitely kill anyone who stands in their way to achieve their goals. Once someone blocks their way, what will happen?
Undoubtedly tragic, to
Not to mention attractiveness, as long as you are willing to "assist" him, he will eventually become an emperor and establish a hegemony. At worst, you can become a "high official", and if you are better, you can even become a king or a marquis.
It can be said that one person attains enlightenment and ascends to heaven.
Obviously Huo Tianting and Sun Mingren chose to "follow" Liu Lang's path. Now Lin Zequan is also facing this choice. However, this is not a choice at all for him, but a big pie falling from the sky.
If it's on your own head, who would refuse it as long as you're not a fool?
"Liu Lang, thank you for your trust in me, I will definitely do it well!"
Lin Zequan didn't waste any words and immediately "expressed his determination".
"Brother Lin, you are my personal lawyer. We are a family. As you can see, I really don't have time to take care of these things. As for Nike, I will leave it to you!"
Liu Lang said.
Well, in the future, a business worth hundreds of millions of dollars seems to be an insignificant matter when it comes to Liu Lang. I am afraid that only Liu Lang in the world can say such a thing, but this just illustrates Liu Lang's goal.
It is clear that for this goal, other profitable transactions are not important. So, what is Liu Lang's goal?
Lin Zequan was very curious, but as the other party's personal lawyer, he understood what things should be asked and what things should not be asked.
That night, Knight and Bowerman found Liu Lang. Both of them had tired faces. It was obvious that the day's negotiations had left them mentally and physically exhausted.
"Liu Lang, I didn't expect that a kid like you could find such a powerful lawyer. We are willing to give in!"
Knight said when they met.
"Mr. Knight, you have not lost, on the contrary, we are a win-win situation. With your company and my design, we are a powerful combination. In the future, the sports equipment market in the United States will definitely be our world!"
Liu Lang smiled slightly.
"Haha, Liu Lang, I'm Bowerman, this is our first meeting. I hope we can have a pleasant cooperation in the future!"
Another partner from Nike stepped forward.
"Hello Mr. Bowerman, from now on we are all a family, and we will naturally cooperate happily!"
"Next, Mr. Lin will have full authority to handle the relevant procedures with you on my behalf. Once all is completed, I will also give you a big gift!"
Liu Lang smiled and said that handling the share delivery was very complicated. He had to go to the United States to go through a series of fair procedures and sign a lot of contract documents. Naturally, Liu Lang couldn't go, so these were all handed over to Lin Zequan.
"Big gift? What big gift?"
The two of them were very curious.
"Haha, keep it secret now. Mr. Lin will tell you after the contract is completed!"
Liu Lang said mysteriously.
The so-called big gift is actually to ask Nike to sign the basketball god, and Liu Lang also asked Lin Zequan to find Stern. After all, the two have met once, and the superstar policy is also in line with Stern's idea of managing the NBA. I believe
The other party will take care of Nike. Even if they don't, as long as they sign Jordan and cooperate with the Jordan generation boots designed by Liu Lang, Nike will be able to establish its own brand very quickly.
That night, Liu Lang invited the two of them to Wangfujing for dinner, and while they were chatting and laughing, they realized Liu Lang's extraordinary qualities.
As his relationship with Liu Lang continued to deepen, Knight gradually realized how powerful Liu Lang was. His knowledge was not at the level that a child should have, and even the entrepreneurs he had come into contact with might not be as good as him.
"This Liu Lang not only knows how to design, but also has his own unique insights into the development of the company. His depth is even deeper than the two of us. Perhaps letting him join the company can be a turning point in Nike's history!"
The next day, Lin Zequan and Knight left the capital for the United States to go through the relevant procedures. It is believed that Liu Lang will soon become a shareholder of Nike.
Talent is the most important thing! If there were no talents, Liu Lang would have to spend countless efforts just to do this. Unfortunately, the country has not yet truly realized the importance of talents.
