After arranging some things for the company, the only two employees, Harvey and Moses, went to work on the matter of attracting and winning customers.

After Chu Xuan was idle, he began to work on another matter.

The leased three-storey façade and the most important ground floor were not used, and when the CX affair came to an end, the renovation of the first floor was completed.

Soon, Chu Xuan put it into use and opened a store.

The name of the store is "Chu Xuan Sports Store", which mainly deals in sporting goods, sneakers, sportswear and other goods.

The brands operated are mainly Nike and Jordan.

As for the source of goods, Chu Xuan also successfully got in touch with the manufacturers of the two brands through his relationship in the NBA, and finally reached a more satisfactory cooperation plan, and the quality of the goods is of course genuine.

In Chu Xuan's opinion, the advantage of his sports store is that everything is genuine, and the pricing is generally lower than that of other authentic stores. Of course, the low price is also due to Chu Xuan's direct purchase from the manufacturer and the lower purchase price than in the contract.

And with such an advantage, relying on the school, Chu Xuan felt that the business of the sports store would definitely be good.

Subsequently, Chu Xuan recruited three female UCLA students as clerks to help with the operation, and then made some activity plans that would be used to make a name for himself after opening the store, so he no longer focused on business.

*******

In the midst of busyness, time always flies.

In the blink of an eye, a third of December has passed.

The Lakers are still not completely better because of Nash's absence.

And sometimes good and bad, the team's performance has also begun to decline.

After the Lakers defeated the Suns on December 10, the team had a 13-8 record and tied with the Oklahoma City Thunder for fifth place in the West.

Considering that the Lakers are not as strong as they were in the first month of the season, it is clear that the record is likely to fall, and it is obviously not so easy to maintain the top five rankings.

A month and a half after the start of the season, the players began to slowly find their competitive form, and many strong teams with average performance at the beginning of the season generally began to exert their strength, making the competition begin to become more and more intense.

In the NBA, the West has always been very competitive, and after entering December, the team rankings in the West can be said to change every day.

Other teams are up and down, up and down. The Lakers, on the other hand, have been in the decline, which has made the team up and down a little nervous.

On the afternoon of the 11th, the Staples Center had a shooting training session.

As an assistant coach in charge of player development, Chu Xuan will of course appear on the sidelines.

"Chu, you've finally stopped, come and think about how to change the situation of the team."

Whiteside is one of the players who trust Chu Xuan's coaching ability more, and after the training session began, he chattered around Chu Xuan.

"What do you mean by stopping? Hassan, I'm going on my business. Chu Xuan smiled.

Whiteside rolled his eyes: "Chu, when did you also think about making money?" I always thought you were a guy who treated money like dung. ”

Chu Xuan smiled: "No one will say that money is not a good thing, and I am the same." Even though I'm committed to my basketball career, I also want to be rich, and I have to do that. ”

Whiteside's eyes moved, as if he was thinking: "Chu, to be honest, why did you suddenly want to engage in business?" This seems to have happened since you met that girl, huh? Wow, is it for that girl, you started working hard to earn money? God, the great Mr. Chu Xuan is in love? ”

As if thinking of something, Whiteside's expression changed to that of discovering a new continent.

"Poof, Hassan, it's not what you think at all, in fact, I've always had the intention of investing in business, but I didn't have time to implement it, after all, I came out of business school. I have to make a lot of money, or I won't be able to live up to my identity! Looking at Whiteside's exaggerated appearance, Chu Xuan couldn't help but laugh out loud.

However, Whiteside was still skeptical, obviously, Chu Xuan's explanation could not convince him: "Chu, as a good brother, you really shouldn't hide it from me." I'll keep it a secret for you, and I also promise that if you're short of money on a date, I'll lend it to you. ”

I have to say that the relationship between Whiteside and Chu Xuan is indeed good. You know, he's a stingy guy. However, he was always willing to lend money to Chu Xuan.

"Hassan, I don't want to borrow your money anymore, I don't know how to repay you for the 20w dollar." Chu Xuan immediately shook his head and smiled bitterly, the taste of lack of money was indeed not very pleasant.

And the feeling of being in debt always stresses him.

Chu Xuan's CX brokerage company and Chu Xuan Sports Store not only spent nearly 80,000 yuan of savings, but also borrowed 200,000 US dollars from Whiteside, and the cost of nearly 300,000 yuan really made Chu Xuan a little pressured.

You know, as an assistant coach of the Lakers, his annual salary is only 500,000. In addition to paying taxes, if he repays Whiteside's 200,000, then he will definitely not be able to lose money all year round.

Obviously, if he borrows any more money, his debt repayment plan will be scheduled until next season.

Looking at Chu Xuan's helpless appearance, Whiteside smiled: "Chu, I'm not worried, you will definitely be able to pay me back." ”

In Whiteside's heart, Chu Xuan is a very capable person.

And in this world, earning money is really not difficult for those who can afford it.

"Hassan, you trust me so much, aren't you afraid that I won't be able to pay your money and disappear one day?" Chu Xuan laughed.

Whiteside shook his head and said, "Chu, you won't do that." Here are your dreams, and you won't give up until you achieve it. ”

Chu Xuan smiled, stared at Whiteside's eyes, and said with a smile: "Dream? Hassan, do you know what my dream is? ”

Although he had been living with Whiteside, Chu Xuan had not told him his thoughts and life plans.

"Of course, Chu, I already knew." Whiteside swore by it.

Chu Xuan couldn't help but be stunned, this guy's appearance didn't seem to be pretending, could he really guess it?

"Hassan, if I'm right, I'll tell you the real reason why I invested in business." Chu Xuan said with a smile.

Whiteside's face was happy, "Chu, you want to be the head coach, you want to make the Lakers a dynasty, you want to be the second John Wooden." ”

Chu Xuan couldn't help but be stunned, what Whiteside said was exactly what he had always dreamed of.

"How do you know that clearly?" Chu Xuan's face was full of doubts.

Whiteside smiled mysteriously, but did not answer immediately: "Chu, you should tell me your reason first, and then I will tell you the reason why I know your dream." ”

Chu Xuan was stunned, and after a moment of silence, he still said: "I fell in love with a girl, she was of noble birth, but I didn't want to miss her, so I had to fight." ”

"Wow, wow, that's true."

Whiteside's eyes widened and he cried out excitedly.

Chu Xuan didn't care, he didn't think it was a secret that couldn't be known.

"Hassan, now can you tell me how you know the reason for my dream?"

Whiteside smiled and whispered, "Actually, I only found out when I heard you talk in your sleep." ”

When Chu Xuan heard this, his eyes couldn't help but widen, and he suddenly felt a **** tightness: "Hassan, through the door, can you hear a person's dream words so clearly?" ”
