Chapter 174: New York through the eyes of James Harden
At this moment, Lian Dao got up and pressed the button of the box above the display stand with his hands.
There is a box that looks like Pandora’s Box on the display stand, with a red button on it. Before that, many people were very curious about what was inside.
Then, Lian Dao pressed the red button, and the Pandora's Box slowly opened, and the ld-1 and ld-1 commemorative sneakers were also displayed in front of everyone.
Two pairs of different styles of shoes are presented in front of everyone. The real ones are more eye-catching than the photos, especially the commemorative style. On the heel of the shoes is the picture of the ncaa championship trophy held high by Lian Dao. It is really full of legends. It is not so much a limited edition sneaker as it is an ncaa championship commemorative sneaker.
The picture of Lian Dao wearing the Southern California No. 1 jersey on the heel of the shoe and lifting the ncaa championship, and the picture of Lian Dao wearing the Knicks No. Lian Dao's career took off.
This made everyone at the scene wish to have a pair right away.
At this time, Anta also announced that the shoes will be on the shelves after the press conference.
At this time, many people also locked on Anta's official website with their mobile phones, waiting to rush to buy it as soon as it is released.
Some people felt that the mobile phone network speed was slow, so they called their relatives and friends and asked them to help them buy in front of the computer.
Anta's press conference here is also coming to an end. After Lian Dao signed autographs for some fans, the press conference also came to an end.
As soon as the press conference ended, the scene became chaotic.
Just 3 minutes after the press conference ended, news came from the backstage that the limited-edition sneakers had been sold out. Anta's staff were surprised at first, and then excitedly hugged each other to celebrate.
Judging from the sales of limited edition sneakers, this pair of signature sneakers has made a good start.
Not only is the ld-1 limited edition, but the sales of ld-1 are also very hot.
On the one hand, it is the influence of Lian Dao itself, and on the other hand, the price is very close to the people.
Compared with the United States, the domestic market is even more popular. Most of the first-time fans are domestic fans. There is no way to compare the speed of logging on to Anta's official website in the United States. The domestic market is much faster.
After the press conference here, Lian Dao also returned to his residence. The difference from when he came here is that there is a commercial vehicle behind the Wrangler's car. They are specially delivering shoes to Lian Dao. In addition to the two pairs of limited-edition sneakers, there are about 30 pairs of ld-1 sneakers. This is the first batch of sneakers brought over and will be sent over later.
The three pairs of limited-edition sneakers in Lian Dao's hands are numbered No. 1, No. 1215 and No. 311 respectively.
The significance of the first two is self-evident.
The third number represents the birthday of the little sister. Lian Dao also proposed it with Anta before, and the size of the shoes is all in line with the foot shape of the little sister.
After getting this pair of sneakers, Lian Dao also gave them to the little senior sister immediately. When the little senior sister saw the size of the ld-1 limited edition shoes and the special code inside, she covered her mouth happily. She could see that Lian Dao hard work.
Immediately, the little senior sister jumped on Lian Dao's body with a swoop, her arms wrapped around Lian Dao's neck, her slender legs coiled around Lian Dao's waist like a koala, and then she offered a long kiss...
Afterwards, Lian Dao got up, changed into ld-1, and then came to the indoor training hall of the villa. Today, the amount of exercise was a bit too high, so it was not suitable to go to the training hall of Madison Square Garden.
And today the team does not have a group training plan. Even if Lian Dao goes to the training, Lian Dao will train by himself. It is the same as training at home. After training for a period of time, the feeling of getting on the feet is quite good, which is better than the first model of Anta before. Shoes have improved a lot.
From this point, it can also be seen that Anta is really making products with heart, which should be one of the reasons why Anta was able to go abroad later.
When Lian Dao was training, the fans in the United States complained on the Internet that they didn’t get the limited edition sneakers. When they just opened the webpage and just wanted to pay, it showed that the stock was out of stock, and then refreshed the page to show that they were gone.
This directly deceived the fans in the United States. Is this the legendary disappearance technique?
Then, soon domestic netizens overcame the wall and shared screenshots of the orders they had grabbed on social media in the United States.
Killing and killing people!
…
On January 11th they were going to face the Oklahoma City Thunder. Lian Dao took the ld-1 signature sneakers of various shoe sizes as gifts to each teammate early in the morning.
All the players were also amazed by the appearance of ld-1. After wearing it on their feet, they also gave a thumbs up to Anta's technology. Many of them did not have sneaker endorsement contracts. Rookie players like Holiday and Douglas There is currently no sneaker endorsement contract. They wear sneakers sponsored by Nike, and the sneakers sponsored by Nike are 12 pairs per player per season.
But for the main players, a pair of sneakers can generally be worn for 3-7 games. If they are worn beyond this number of games, the sneakers will be easily deformed and easily injured.
Therefore, the 12 sneakers can only be worn for half a season. At this time, the replacement of sneakers can only be purchased by the players themselves.
At this time, Holiday and Douglas envied Lian Dao very much.
Signed sneakers, some players never have a pair of their own signature sneakers in their whole life, but Lian Dao already had his first pair of signature sneakers shortly after entering the league.
Moreover, the other team members also watched the media news, and the New York Times also reported on the hot sale of Lian Dao's sneakers.
"Once the limited edition ld-1 was put on the shelves, it was sold out within 3 minutes."
"The limited edition ld-1 has flowed into the second-hand market, and the price keeps rising."
"Talking about the commercial value of sickle."
…
The Nike management also received the predicted sales of ld-1 sorted out by the staff.
Nike's management looked at the data above, and not only took a deep breath, they thought they had paid enough attention to Lian Dao, but they didn't expect his explosive commercial potential to scare Nike's management.
Nike regretted not raising the offer to sign Lian Dao at that time, but now it is a foregone conclusion and they cannot change this aspect.
Nike's management is not very worried about Anta's entry into the US market. After all, Nike is currently in a dominant position in the global market. Kobe, James, Durant and other big-name stars are all under Nike's banner. The most important thing is that Nike still has the most money-absorbing brands. The aj Jordan series.
It can be said that Nike did not care about Anta, which had just entered the US market.
…
Lian Dao didn't pay too much attention to what happened outside, because the Knicks team also came to Oklahoma.
If it is said that the Knicks have not yet played against a team, then there is only the Oklahoma City Thunder.
The media in the United States paid a lot of attention to this game.
One is the peak of the talented debut, leading the Knicks out of the belly, and playing the best record of 25 wins and 11 losses in recent years.
One is also very talented. After two years of growth, he led the Thunder out of the quagmire and broke out from the Western Conference where there are many strong players, winning 20 wins and 16 losses.
If you just look at the average strength of the team's players, the strength of the Oklahoma City Thunder is even more prominent.
With the arrival of James Harden this season, the Thunder's bench lineup also ushered in their best sixth man. Under the leadership of Durant, they have also continued to play excellent performances recently. The formation is complete.
Before this, there was no Harden in the three Thunders. Before this, there were three of them, Kevin Durant, Jeff Green, and Westbrook.
This season, after the Thunder selected James Harden, Harden continued to perform brilliantly. The fans then replaced James Harden with Jeff Green and became the new Thunder's third young man.
On the day of the game, Durant shot one after another precise mid-range shots like a shooting machine with a blank face, but in fact there was a burning flame in his heart.
Finally it was his turn to play against the Knicks. He had waited for almost half a season, and finally he was waiting to play against that guy. He wanted to see how strong this guy was. Can't help but praise.
But Harden, who was obviously absent-minded at the side, was thinking at this time, this guy Lian Dao has his own signature sneakers so soon. The key is that they are still so good-looking. In his mind, is it too cheap for him to just give him a pair of sneakers.
Well, how about letting him invite himself to a nightclub to have fun.
But the nightclubs here in Oklahoma basically don’t have much interest, it’s better in New York, why is it not at the Knicks’ home field this time~www.mtlnovel.com~ In this way, I can ask Sickle to invite me to the nightclub Yes, New York, there are many nightclubs, surrounded by beauties, carnival all night, what kind of enjoyment is this.
"James, James." Durant shook Harden's shoulders while calling Harden's name.
"Ah...uh, what's the matter?" James Harden came back to his senses and looked at Durant blankly.
"What are you thinking, your mouth is drooling." Durant looked at Harden suspiciously.
Harden blushed immediately when he heard it, and then quickly touched his mouth.
"Huh? No, I was tricked!"
At this time, Durant was also amused by James Harden's appearance.
