Chapter 138: The First Order
Chapter 138
"Jiangnan Province 'Jiangnan Cup' Children's Basketball League schedule, this league will be divided into three divisions......" In the Black Panther Arena, Old Man Long held the document just sent by the Basketball Association, looked at it and suddenly smiled:
"Heh, this time in the province can be regarded as using some brains! It's a complicated schedule! ”
Xin Yi, the young director of the Sports Committee of Donghai City, is worthy of being a high-achieving student who graduated from the University of Hong Kong, and a schedule designed by him is not leaky. He divided Jiangnan Province into three divisions: eastern, central, and western.
Eastern Division: Qingshan City, Yunxi City, Binzhou City, North Shore City (Venue: Qingshan City)
Central Division: Donghai City, Lidu City, Shahu City, Jiangning City (Venue: Donghai City)
Western Division: Xilan City, Daling City, Kyushu City, Longgang City (Venue: Kyushu City)
Each region will have two rounds of competition to determine the regional champion. The three divisional champions then converged in the provincial capital of Donghai City.
The three teams competed against each other in the provincial capital of Donghai City. If one of the teams wins both matches, that team will advance directly to the finals, and the remaining one final spot will be determined by the other two teams; If all three teams win just one game, the team with the lowest points per game will be eliminated!
The format is brutal, and you can't be careless in every game. Old Man Long closed the information in his hand and watched the young players on the field continue to do switchback running training under the leadership of Fan Jinsong, sweating wantonly. The old man let out a long breath, and his gaze gradually became firm. muttered in his mouth the poem "Out of the Stopper" by the Tang Dynasty poet Wang Changling:
"In the Qin period, the bright moon and the Han period, the Long March has not been returned. But to make the dragon city fly, do not teach Humadu Yin Mountain......"
"Suzu...... Ring...... "The ringtone of the mobile phone is very inopportune and disturbs the old man's fierce feelings, which is really a bit of a bad scenery." He took out his mobile phone angrily, and when he saw it, it was Xiao Xuan's father.
"Hello? Xiao Ding! Why call me at this time? The old man's tone was a little unhappy.
"Elder Long, that's the case, I'm here for a little bit today, and I'm afraid I won't be able to pick up Xiaoxuan for a while. Can you please take him back to your house, I'll pick him up when I'm done. Ding Yachuan said hurriedly on the other end of the phone.
"Oh...... It doesn't matter, the foundation has just been established, there must be a lot of things, you are busy with yours, Xiao Xuan is having dinner with me today! Ding Yachuan's diligent work attitude made Old Man Long turn his anger into joy.
"Hey, okay, that's the first thing, let's not talk about it, I'm hanging!" Ding Yachuan didn't wait for the old man to reply, and hung up the phone directly after speaking.
"Hey, this little ding!" After the old man put away his mobile phone, he looked at the children with affection again, but he couldn't get back the feeling just now......
……
As soon as the Qinglan Club "opened", Ding Yachuan was really busy with his feet on the ground. Although he had been mentally prepared, he didn't expect the Foundation to make a big difference as soon as he got started.
The reason for the incident is this: in order to make team uniforms for the Qingshan Children's United Team participating in the provincial league, Xiao Li of the garment factory brought a batch of design samples to the directors for review, and after discussing and deciding, the selected style was reported to the Municipal Basketball Association.
Ding Yachuan, who has many years of experience in brand promotion, associates basketball team uniforms with basketball training equipment and competition supplies, and even the broader sporting goods market. I think this provincial league is an excellent platform to promote related brands. He keenly grasped this huge business opportunity.
At the council meeting, Ding Yachuan put forward his own ideas: "I think we should not be limited to providing uniforms for the players. Since the last city-wide league, there has been Mr. Ma and Mr. Tong and their media dissemination, and recently there has been Lao Li and their propaganda and foreshadowing, basketball has been deeply rooted in the hearts of the general public, and even become an amateur cultural life that people talk about. I think we can take advantage of this trend and make a difference in the development and promotion of sporting goods. First of all, the first step is to start with the basketball team uniform, is it possible to process some adult team uniforms with the same style as the Aoyama Children's team, and put them on the market to test? ”
Since the coaches are still training the children in the stadium at this time, only Zhou Lijun, Lin Yisheng, Li Changshou, Xiao Li and Ding Yachuan from the garment factory are present today.
Li Changshou immediately agreed: "Hey! Lao Ding's idea is good! If nothing else, my brother and I will definitely buy a set and wear it and walk through the city to shake it! ”
Zhou Lijun pursed the corners of his mouth, looked at these design drawings seriously, and did not express his opinion immediately. Lin Yisheng saw that he was silent, so he echoed Lao Li and said: "I also think it is feasible, you see that the NBA can make a lot of money just by selling team uniforms every year!" Xiao Li, why don't you produce a small amount first and try to sell it? ”
"Smack!" Zhou Lijun closed the picture book heavily. didn't pay attention to them, but asked Ding Yachuan directly: "Brother Ding, I think your ambition must be more than testing this item, right?" What else? Speak up! ”
"I do have a little idea." Ding Yachuan cleared his throat and continued: "I think that basketball can give rise to a large sports industry, and its market size will far exceed our expectations. But 'a journey of a thousand miles begins with a single step', first let go of this sportswear and make it! ”
"Right!" Zhou Lijun patted the sample: "Mr. Ding is right. I often hear a saying in the capital, 'Look up at the starry sky, but also keep your feet on the ground'. Mr. Ding's proposal is both forward-looking and feasible to be implemented in stages. Yes, I raise my hands in favor! You go on to say. ”
"I took a look at the design drafts that Xiao Li brought, and each plan has its own characteristics. Perhaps the team can only choose between home and away kits. But we might as well try to produce all of these styles, show them to the fans, and then finalize the production style based on the reaction! Ding Yachuan saw that the others had no objections, and continued to say:
"We have a permanent population of 8 million people in Qingshan City, and according to the data I just got from the Municipal Basketball Association, according to their statistics, 30% of the citizens are keen on basketball, ranging in age from 8 to 45 years old! Even if a third of these basketball enthusiasts are Aoyama fans, how many potential customers are there? This account is hard to settle as soon as it is calculated. ”
At this time, in the huge conference room, only Ding Yachuan was talking eloquently, and the other four people were already fascinated.
"You know, people's impulse to follow the wind is the source of their desire to buy. Although the number and style of our first batch of listings need to be actuarial, it must not be less, and it is difficult to cover the entire market without it. At the very least, the two sizes of XL and L for adults cannot be out of stock! ”
"Hey! Mr. Ding, have you also done clothing business before? I feel like you're clear! Xiao Li admired the five-body throw.
"All market economies are interconnected, and if you master the business principles, you can do the same business." Ding Yachuan smiled at him, and then continued to preach to everyone:
"Moreover, relying on Xiao Li's manufacturer's store to sell it is not enough. We can contact Castle Peak Sporting Goods Mall and ask them to provide us with a venue for a large-scale special sales event! ”
"I know Mr. Shao of the sports mall well, just say hello to him!" Zhou Lijun had already followed Ding Yachuan's train of thought, and naturally picked up the conversation.
"If the market, production, and circulation are all in place, then things will be easy to do. Launching a special exhibition, Xiao Li, you should not only increase productivity, but also be prepared for improvisation in production scheduling and material supply! If necessary, you can put other orders aside and concentrate on the production of our Aoyama series of team uniforms! Ding Yachuan saw that Xiao Li's face was difficult, and helped him make up a reassuring pill, "You can rest assured, the cost of this production will be prepaid by our Qingshan Association in advance, and the profit from the final sale will be paid to you in addition to the cost of materials in advance, and another five percent of the expedited fee will be added to you." The remainder is included in our operating income, which is first used for the expenditure of public welfare undertakings, and then dividends are proportionally distributed at the end of the year! What do you think of my suggestion? If we could, we'd talk to the coaches at the Panthers Arena right away. Xiao Li can immediately arrange for pattern making to be put into production! With only three months left until the provincial league starts, we have to race against the clock! ”
"What's the point, let them practice the children with peace of mind! I think I can start right away! Zhou Lijun finally made a decision. Li Changshou was silent for a long time, and then finally interjected:
"I have a trick for you to see if it's okay, let Xiao Li make a set of oversized team uniforms, and when the time comes, at the sales meeting in the sports mall, let's hang it high, so that it looks so magnificent, more conspicuous, and more recruiting!"
Zhou Lijun was a little impressed with him at this time: "Hey! I can't see that you guy, you still have some brains! Get! Xiao Li, I'll leave this matter to you too! ”
