My Name is Kobe Bryant

Chapter 134 Peerless Twins

"Welcome! Mr. Bryant! MAGIC! Rob!" John Donahoe, who just became eBay's president and CEO, met Kobe and his party at the eBay headquarters in San Jose.

"Hello, John." Kobe smiled and shook hands.

Today, they will sign the final contract agreement here. Rob Pelinka has already finalized all the details for Kobe, so they are very familiar with each other. It is the first time for Kobe to meet John Donahoe. A top management talent who left Bain to join eBay in 2005 has now become eBay's trump card in advance. Kobe didn't know that this was all due to his influence. If John Donahoe hadn't valued Kobe's potential and believed that he had the hope of creating the next top sports brand, he would not have left Bain.

"Kobe! I'm your fan! You've been playing really well recently!" John Donahoe is indeed a Kobe fan, which is why he continues to instigate Pierre Omidyar, the founder of eBay, to hurry up. Why signed Kobe.

"John! Last time you said you were my fan!" The magician pretended to be surprised and widened his eyes.

Everyone laughed together and took the elevator to the top floor of the company building under the guidance of John Donahoe.

"Kobe, I would like to introduce to you, this is the founder of eBay, Pierre Omidyar." John Donahoe brought everyone to the conference room, where eBay's top executives were already waiting, and some of them will join Manchester United. A member of Pakistan Sports. John Donahoe introduced Kobe one by one.

In the end, under the notarization of the invited lawyers, four people including Kobe, Magician, Pierre Omidyar, and John Donahoe signed the company's establishment treaty.

Kobe Bryant owns 12% of the shares, Magician 15%, Pierre Omidyar takes the lead, and he who pays and gives people 60% of the shares. John Donahoe is at 13%.

Except for Kobe, the other shareholders all invested funds and applied for loans from the bank at the same time. In the United States, very few companies survive without borrowing from banks.

The president of Mamba Sports is a magician, and the CEO is Meg Whitman. The "godmother of e-commerce" and "queen of online flea markets" who would have become the president and CEO of eBay in 1998 are highly recommended by Kobe. After that, he became the actual operation manager of Mamba Sports.

Meg Whitman has a BA in Economics from Princeton University and an MBA from Harvard Business School. She has worked in several large companies, including Procter \u0026 Gamble's customer service department, a management consultant for Bain \u0026 Company's San Francisco branch, Disney's vice president of consumer product marketing, president of the shoe company Stride Rite, and the world's largest flower production company. President and CEO of the company FTD, general manager of Hasbro's preschool division. In 2010, he became a candidate for governor of California.

This is a great business prodigy, especially since he also has the experience of working in a shoe company, and it is perfect for her to be in charge of Mamba Sports.

"Cheers to the founding of Mamba Sports!"

"cheers!"

"We will hold a press conference on January 1. Kobe has no game, so I can just attend. I have already contacted the foundry. After the sneaker design is completed, we can put it into production immediately. We will release the first batch of goods. 5W Double, if the market response is good, we will increase our efforts to increase production, if not, we will redesign a new shoe." The strong woman Meg Whitman explained the operation plan to Kobe tightly.

"Believe me, the sneakers we designed will be the best." Kobe has a well-thought-out plan. He is going to make the classic shoes of later generations. The first pair of shoes must be as popular as the AJ1. "

"Don't worry about the sales in the sneaker market. I will be responsible for the distribution. As long as Kobe can continue to maintain this performance, Mamba Sports will eventually become great." Meg Whitman has done a lot of analysis. The attractiveness of teenagers can reach the level of Anfernee Hardaway or Grant Hill. She is confident to carve up the sneaker market with Nike and Adidas Reebok. You must know that Mamba Sports is backed by eBay, and its online sales capabilities far exceed all other brands.

Of course Kobe has confidence, only reaching the level of Hardaway and Hill? Not enough, I want my fans all over the world!

At the same time, the Kimpton Hotel Monaco in Philadelphia.

Allen Iverson, his agent Moore, and the Reebok staff signed the sneaker contract in a conference room at the Kimpton Hotel Monaco in Philadelphia. There were not only lawyers but also a lot of reporters present. Reebok directly turned the signing into a media conference.

A 10-year contract with a sky-high price of 50 million yuan, the total amount of this contract is second only to Jordan. And if Iverson can be selected as an All-Star for 3 consecutive years, this contract will automatically be converted into a lifetime contract!

Reebok can be said to have spent a lot of money, betting on the player Allen Iverson. They firmly believe that a small player like Iverson will make fans feel more involved, and the future market will far exceed other players.

I have to say that Iverson has indeed become the idol of a generation. His resolute and brave character, and his crazily attacking inside style of play made him be remembered in the history of basketball and became an indelible pearl.

Signing contracts, shaking hands, smiling, taking pictures. The flash recorded this scene.

"Finally, I can finally feed my family and my brothers." Iverson couldn't help but be filled with emotion. He grew up on the street and grew up in drug deals and gun battles as a child. My mother worked alone to make ends meet, but the environment in Iverson's house was still poor. There was no electricity, no water, no food, and the sewer pipes were often broken. The two younger sisters wore overshoes all day long.

The brothers on the street help each other and accompany each other to help Iverson grow up. The conflicts on the street and the encounters in the prison let him know that only his brother can be relied on.

It is in this environment that the current Iverson has been created.

With a height of 1.83 meters, the sky cannot restrict his flying. Countless times he crossed the crowd to make up dunks brazenly, countless times he rode a single-handed raid and hung a basket with only one hand, he showed his sharpness and arrogance.

At the same time, he also believes that he has the responsibility and obligation to help his little ones. Those people are life-threatening friends. If they are prosperous, they will also spare no effort to help AI.

He values ​​love and righteousness, and at the same time is rebellious.

He is AI.

The peerless twins of the 96 generation signed a sneaker contract after Christmas, which caused an uproar in the NBA.

Especially on December 29th, tomorrow these two players will meet for the second time in their careers.

Veteran fans have already stocked up on pizza, popcorn and beer. The last game between the Lakers and the 76ers made the audience happy.

Kobe has 32 points, 4 rebounds, 6 assists, 2 steals and 1 block!

Iverson 25 points, 3 rebounds, 3 assists and 2 steals!

It's unbelievable that these two players are still rookies. It's rare to have one such player who debuted as an All-Star in a draft, but there are actually two in the 96 generation!

Kobe won the game and the statistics, so what about this game?
