Thirteen-year-old Tony Trabert changed his clothes, walked out onto the tennis court, and then eagerly pulled out his new tennis racket to show off to his companions.

Tony Trapote, who has just entered seventh grade and entered Walnut Hill Middle School, is the tennis star of the school, he won the U.S. Tennis Junior Championship two years ago, and he is also a talented tennis teenager.

It is precisely because Tony Trapotter has the aura of a talented tennis teenager that he is also the absolute focus of the school's tennis court, and when he appeared on the school's tennis court that day, he immediately attracted the attention of many people.

"Tony, you're here, let's practice together!" A voice rang out, speaking as one of Tony Trapote's peers on the school tennis team.

"No problem, Tom, wait until I get my racket out." Tony Trapotte said, deliberately placing the tennis racket prominently in front of him.

Tony Trabot has a new tennis racket in his hand, which he just bought over the weekend, and now Tony Trabot can't wait to show off his new racket in front of his teammates, after all, it is "the same racket as the US Open champion".

However, in the next second, Tony Trapote found that Tom was also holding a new type of tennis racket in his hand, exactly the same as the one in his hand.

Tony Trapot was slightly stunned, but at the same time that Tony Trapote was stunned, Tom on the other side took the lead in introducing the racket in his hand.

"Tony, you see, I just bought a new racket, it's a new type of tennis racket, and it's said that the tennis string is made of artificial sheep intestines. Did you know that the US Open champion not long ago used this new tennis racket? Tom said smugly.

"Why does he have this kind of tennis racket too!" Tony Trabot suddenly felt a little aggrieved in his heart, like a child showing off a new toy but not succeeding.

Tom on the other side also saw Tony Trabot pull out a brand new tennis racket from his bag.

"Tony, you bought this new tennis racket too?" Tom asked.

Tony Trabot had no choice but to nod, and then pretended to be calm and said: "Actually, I bought it a long time ago, but I just didn't take it out and use it." ”

At this time, another senior member of the tennis team also walked over.

"Tony, Tom, do you have that new tennis racket in your hand?" The senior asked.

"Yes, I just bought it this weekend, brand new, and I used it for the first time today!" Tom said triumphantly.

"It seems that this new type of tennis racket is very popular!" As he spoke, the senior team member also showed off his tennis racket, which was also a new type of tennis racket.

"You have it too?" Tony Trabot asked in some surprise, with a hint of sourness in his tone.

"Of course, the price of this new tennis racket is not expensive, and this year's US Open champion uses this new tennis racket, of course I want to buy one and try it." The senior team member paused and said, "I thought I was the first in our school to use this new type of tennis racket, but I didn't expect that many people would use it. ”

"A lot of people? You mean it's not just the three of us? Tony Trabot asked.

"Of course it's not just the three of us, you see over there, Anthony, Donald, Jimmy, and Kevin, they're all using this new type of tennis racket." The senior team member replied.

Tony Trapote's expression suddenly froze, and the feeling of grievance in his heart made him want to find a place to vent.

It's like a kindergarten kid who is excited to show off to his peers, and last night his parents took him to eat KFC, only to find that his peers were each holding a family bucket and nibbling on it.

Not far away, the coach of the school's tennis team is holding a folder full of application forms for students to join the tennis team. Looking at the thick application form, the coach's face bloomed with joy.

"There are still a lot of people in the school who like tennis, and there are a lot of people who are willing to come and play tennis, provided they can afford a tennis racket." The coach muttered to himself.

Walnut Hill High School is a public school, and the size of the school is not small in the United States, but the family conditions of the students who go to public schools are also uneven.

Nowadays, cheaper new tennis rackets appear on the market, which immediately meets the needs of ordinary families, and even families with less high economic incomes can afford a new type of tennis racket through gritted teeth.

Tennis rackets have become cheaper, which has also directly affected the level of participation in campus tennis.

If it were in China, even if sporting goods became cheaper, it would not necessarily be able to promote the development of campus sports. However, in the United States, the sports atmosphere on campus is already very strong, students are willing to participate in various sports, and families and schools also encourage students to engage in sports, so the price of tennis rackets has become affordable, which has directly made more students participate in tennis, and campus tennis has also developed rapidly.

Of course, this also has something to do with the identity of the tennis aristocracy.

Ordinary people, of course, want to try this kind of sport that only the aristocracy could afford to play before, and there was really no such condition before, but now with this condition, it is not swarming!

Just like in the early 90s, private cars were a rarity in China, and few people could afford to buy a private car. Later, with the increase of people's income, more and more people can afford to buy cars, and there are more and more private cars on the street, and even many people have to buy a car to drive without a driver's license.

Of course, now that the people's awareness of the legal system has been strengthened, there is almost no such situation of driving without a license, but at the beginning of the new century, when private cars were just beginning to become popular, it was indeed quite common to buy a car and drive without getting a driver's license.

……

Southern California Tennis Association, Jack Kramar is holding a new tennis racket, talking about the advantages of the new tennis racket to the man in front of him.

The men's Perry Jones is the president of the Southern California Tennis Association, the same person who gave Pancho Gonzalez a ban above.

In the entire California tennis scene, Perry Jones is undoubtedly the most powerful man.

Perry Jones has a very good personal relationship with Jack Crama, and Jack Crama also regards Perry Jones as his life coach. The son of a railroad worker, Jack Crama struggled to play tennis with his family's circumstances, but thanks to the sponsorship of the Southern California Tennis Association, he was able to continue his tennis career, and it was Perry Jones who decided to sponsor Jack Crama at that time.

Now that Jack Crama is back in California to promote the new tennis racket, of course, he has to come to the most powerful man in California tennis, and if he gets Perry Jones' support, then the promotion of the new tennis racket in California will also become unimpeded.

Perry Jones still values Jack Crama very much, otherwise he would not have funded him to play tennis back then, and now Jack Crama is here under the banner of promoting tennis, and Perry Jones of course has shown support for Jack Crama.

I have to say that Jack Kramar does have a lot of connections in the American tennis world, and these connections will also establish his status in tennis in the future. Now, these connections have also allowed Jack Crama to thrive in the process of promoting a new type of tennis racket.

After the formation of California, Jack Crama went home to take a look. At this time, Jack Krama had not been home for more than two months.

Since taking over the job of marketing new tennis rackets, Jack Crama has taken the train to one city after another, visiting one sporting goods store, or looking for some connections, or going directly to the coach of the tennis club to try to sell the tennis racket.

It is a fact that for Jack Crama, it is not uncommon not to go home for more than two months, when he worked in the Coast Guard before, he tried not to go home for a longer time, especially when the Pacific War had just broken out and Japanese submarines appeared in the waters off the coast of the United States, Jack Crama either went to sea or was on standby, and it was common for him not to go home for several months.

At that time, Jack Kramar was defending his homeland, and now, he is fulfilling his dream of promoting tennis.

Traveling from city to city, Jack Krama is tired, but happy. For him, this is not only a job, but also his personal hobby, an ideal he pursues.

Hobbies can be combined with work, which is really a very happy thing, and the goal of work is the ideal that you pursue, which is the dream of countless people.

Jack Kramar considers himself lucky to have found a job that he loves and can achieve his dreams.

Plus, the job pays well.

Judging by the promotion of the new tennis racket in the past month, at least, Jack Crama has made a lot of money, more than he did when he was in the Coast Guard.

And in the process of selling tennis rackets, Jack Crama also met a young and beautiful lady, and in Jack Crama's opinion, this young and beautiful lady was his angel.

Jack Crama, who has a bumper harvest of love and career, feels that he has become a winner in life!

……

At this time, Chen Qiang, the real winner in life, was in Little Beckland's laboratory, listening to Little Beckland introduce the new products developed in the laboratory: several nylon ropes of different thicknesses.

Chen Qiang is not interested in nylon rope at all, but Little Beckland is the opposite, as long as it is plastic-related products, small shells are full of interest. Therefore, the military's feedback on nylon rope has not yet come, and the second batch of nylon rope orders is also far away, but little Beckland has developed several new types of nylon rope.

Listening to little Beckland's continuous introduction of nylon rope that he didn't understand at all, Chen Qiang felt bored, and he wasted a lot of effort to finally bring the topic back to the new tennis racket.

"Ever since you won the US Open, the sales of new tennis rackets have been increasing, remember when our warehouse was full of returns? Now that the warehouse has been emptied, all the goods have been sent out, and there is a new order form, the Jack Crama you are looking for is really a good material to sell, and our tennis racket workshop, even if it is fully produced, will not be able to meet the needs of the market. Do you think we should expand the scale of production? Little Bakeland began.

Chen Qiang thought for a while and replied: "I don't think there is any need to expand the production scale of tennis rackets for the time being, according to my judgment, there are two main reasons why tennis rackets are selling so well now, the first is that I have just won the US Open, and the heat has not dissipated, which makes the new tennis racket have good sales; The second is because the new tennis racket has just been launched, because the price is cheaper, so it temporarily fills the market demand for the floor price tennis racket, and as more and more people buy new tennis rackets, the market is becoming more and more saturated, and the sales of new tennis rackets will also decline. Therefore, I think that if we blindly expand production capacity, we will lose money when the market becomes saturated. ”

"That makes sense!" Little Beckland gave a look of approval, and then continued, "I think you're really better at business than I am." ”

"You've said that more than once." Chen Qiang said with a smile.

Little Beckland said: "From the first hula hoop, then to bowling, to the new tennis racket, I found that the products you make money from are sporting goods, and I think you should start a sporting goods company, and then specialize in selling sporting goods to make money." ”

"Sporting goods companies?" Chen Qiang was slightly stunned, and suddenly felt that this was really a good idea.

On the understanding of sporting goods, no one is stronger than Chen Qiang in this era, if Chen Qiang opens a sporting goods company, he only needs to improve a few sporting goods in accordance with the direction of future sports development, and he can make money.

"What, you're interested in starting a sporting goods company?" Little Beckland suddenly showed a flattering expression, and then said: "If you really want to open a sporting goods company, count me as one!" I believe that I will definitely make a lot of money selling sporting goods with you. ”

"Okay, if I open a sporting goods company, I'll call you." Chen Qiang agreed casually.

At that moment, there was a knock on the door, and little Bekeland's secretary hurried in.

"What's going on?" Little Beckland couldn't help but ask.

"Oh, I just got good news, so I came to inform Mr. Chen." The secretary turned to Chen Qiang and continued: "Mr. Chen, just now, the House of Representatives passed the repeal of the "Restriction on Chinese Immigration Law"! ”

After hearing the news, Chen Qiang's face also showed joy.

The Chinese Exclusion Act in the United States was finally repealed.
