Chapter 529: It's a Matter of Course
"Meng, He, this is the third generation of Odin sneakers we are going to launch!"
"Meng, He, this is our annual plan for 2004."
"Meng, He 。。。。。"
After getting off the plane at Indianapolis International Airport, Meng Xu rushed home in a hurry, because at Meng Xu's home, several main persons in charge of Odin Company were already waiting for Meng Xu there.
Since the end of last season, the Odin brand has been officially spun off from Nike and has become a wholly-owned subsidiary of Nike, and the establishment of Odin is a milestone event for Meng Xu and this alliance, because it marks that Meng Xu has not only become the first person in the league in terms of competition, but also marks that Meng Xu has become the first person in the league in terms of business.
Although Meng Xu is not like Jordan, he directly holds shares in Jordan or even Nike, but unlike Jordan, Meng Xu has 50% ownership of the Odin brand, and Meng Xu also signed a new contract with Nike, as one of the holders of the Odin brand, Meng Xu will receive 10% of the total sales of the Odin series as dividends every year, and according to the provisions of the new contract, Odin Company in the design and production of new sneakers, as well as the signing of new stars, It must also be implemented after obtaining Meng Xu's consent in advance.
Now Nike is already a large company with a market value of tens of billions of dollars, like in the 90s of the last century, it is obviously impossible to give hundreds of millions of company shares to its players in vain, so when negotiating with Nike, He Hui proposed a compromise plan, Meng Xu does not hold any shares of Odin and Nike, but Meng Xu will have part of the ownership of the Odin brand, and at the same time participate in the dividends of Odin with this part of the ownership. At the same time, in order to ensure that Meng Xu can intervene in the management and decision-making of Odin Company like Jordan, He Hui, as Meng Xu's agent, will serve as the director of operations of Odin Company, but because Odin Company is headquartered in New York, He Hui's director of operations is more symbolic.
Because the Pacers have a tight schedule in recent times, and the headquarters of Odin Company is in New York, so taking advantage of Meng Xu's Christmas holiday, several senior executives of Odin Company came directly to Meng Xu's home to briefly report to Meng Xu about the company's operation in recent months, and at the same time show Meng Xu all kinds of plans for the next year.
"One star a year?" Meng Xu is really not interested in those financial statements or something, because Meng Xu knows that as long as there is any benefit, nothing will go wrong, and the part of the dividends that belongs to him, Odin Company will also hit his designated account on time, so there is basically nothing to see, so Meng Xu picked up the annual plan for the next year after symbolically turning two pages, no matter what the content is, just by looking at the title, Meng Xu became interested, in fact, at the beginning of the establishment of Odin Company, Meng Xu thought about letting them sign a few rookies to support the scene first, but several players that Meng Xu fancied were either cut off by Nike or snatched away by Jordan.
"Yes, although the new company has only been established for half a year, we are now the seventh sporting goods company in the United States, so for the long-term development of the company, we must sign several excellent players, one star a year, just the name of this plan, in the specific operation, we may also sign multiple players at the same time." After seeing that Meng Xu was very interested in this plan, John Andrew, CEO of Odin, immediately began to introduce the detailed plan of the plan, although the specific implementation and operation are personally responsible for them, but according to the new contract signed between Meng Xu and Nike, only if Meng Xu nods and approves their plan, the plan they formulated can be implemented.
The plan that John Andrew gave to Meng Xu is actually very difficult for Meng Xu, who has only studied in college for one year, but from this plan, and the blazing eyes of John Andrew and the surrounding Odin company executives, Meng Xu can see their naked ambition, which is the ambition to dare to lead Odin to compete with Jordan, Adi, and even Nike. Although Nike attaches great importance to Meng Xu and the newly established Odin company, most of these senior executives sent by Nike to the new company are unhappy or unhappy with Nike, especially the current CEO John Andrew. Therefore, for these people, Odin is the stage for them to display their talents and ambitions, and to think a little darker, Odin is also their tool to "prove" themselves to Nike,
。。。。。。
"It's finally gone! It's not easy to have a Christmas time, Sister Hui, I'll go take a shower first. After seeing off John Andrew, Meng Xu walked directly into his room.
By the time Meng Xu came out of the shower, He Hui was already fiddling with the Christmas tree there, although Christmas did not have any special meaning for Chinese people like Meng Xu and He Hui, but it was also very good to follow the local customs, especially to be able to get a few days of leisurely vacation and rest for a few days during the long season.
Along the stairs, Meng Xu slowly walked to the living room, but when he was still four or five meters away from He Hui, Meng Xu stopped, stood in place, and quietly looked at He Hui's back.
Meng Xu's father and He Hui's father are young, Meng Xu and He Hui also grew up together, so the relationship between Meng Xu and He Hui is also very special, since Meng Xu came to the United States, He Hui has been taking care of Meng Xu, Meng Xu can now focus all his energy on playing without distraction, and thanks to He Hui such a dedicated agent, therefore, no matter what way he thinks, Meng Xu hopes that He Hui can always be by his side.
I don't know how long I watched there, and I don't know what kind of fierce struggle Meng Xu's head went through, Meng Xu finally mustered up the courage and slowly walked towards He Hui, hugging her from behind, and at the moment when Meng Xu hugged He Hui, Meng Xu could clearly hear his pounding heartbeat.
And He Hui was hugged by Meng Xu, his body trembled obviously, and then after his hands were suspended in the air for a few seconds, he gently put them on Meng Xu's hands holding him, and after a few seconds, He Hui's body completely relaxed and snuggled in Meng Xu's arms.
At this moment, Wan Lai was silent, and neither Meng Xu nor He Hui made any sound, but at this moment, Meng Xu and He Hui both felt the sound of each other's heartbeat, and both felt the long-buried thoughts in each other's hearts.
