Jenkins' avoidance was obviously intentional, leaving a private space for two people to communicate, but the bathroom door was so thin, could it really block the sound?
Gawain and Tobias looked at each other, and there was a brief silence. Then Gawain raised his eyebrows slightly, breaking the deadlock and indicating the direction of the bathroom with his chin.
"Is this serious?"
Everything is so beautiful and shocking. Even if he is as calm as Gawain and doesn't know much about the contract, he can still understand what Nike's proposal means. To some extent, even more than the US Open champion. Shock——
After all, the championship is built step by step by oneself, but the Nike contract seems to be a fantasy, falling directly from the sky.
Tobias nodded slightly, with a hint of pride in his eyes, "It's true."
In the final analysis, we still need to thank Gawain for his trust in Tobias:
After the semifinals, faced with a sky-high contract from Nike that almost cost him money, Tobias gritted his teeth and held on to the bottom line, and had the last laugh in this high-stakes game, and then made a complete comeback, and in just twelve years Within hours, it provoked a head-on competition between Nike and Adidas for the entire Asian market and future market layout, and finally ushered in a bumper harvest——
A Gao Wen represents the Asian market, while young people born in 1995 represent the future. The entire battle pattern has risen to a whole new level. It happened in 2014. The blockade of the four giants encountered an unprecedented impact. At the beginning of the year, the Australian Open and The US Open at the end of the year was both disappointing.
By the way, the US Open men's singles final is over. The mainstream media, including the New York Times, The Times, and ESPN, have all calmed down, objectively analyzed the current situation in tennis, and put forward a very practical and very practical plan for next year's new season. Important decisive questions:
Has the dominance of the Big Four completely collapsed? Is men's tennis officially returning to the era of competition for hegemony?
What’s interesting is that the mainstream media have reached a consensus one after another, looking at all aspects, and finally came to the same answer. The “golden decade of the Big Four” has come to an end, and the next men’s tennis world will open up to competition, especially after 1990. The new generation born after 1995 will bring a more powerful impact.
Perhaps, in the 2015 season, the four Grand Slams will be a completely new scene.
This is not the opinion of one person, but the mainstream view of professional commentators in the entire tennis world. It is also the core point that major sports brands need to consider.
Behind the seemingly outrageous quotation is the competition between the two top giants in terms of global strategic layout and future layout of men's tennis. Then the outrageous number is not so outrageous——
Fanning the flames and adding fuel to the fire? This is Tobias's specialty.
However, this is obviously not the best time to discuss the ins and outs in depth.
Tobias motioned to the bathroom with his eyes, and Gawain followed his gaze. Although he couldn't see the situation through the wooden door, when he imagined the scene of Jenkins putting his ear to the door and eavesdropping in the corner, the smile on his lips couldn't help but Lift up slightly.
Tobias came to Gawain, with his back to the bathroom, and said in a low voice.
"Two choices."
"Nike, two million US dollars a year, five-year contract, specialized product line, annual sales exceeding 500 million US dollars, dividends of 1.5%."
"Adidas, three million dollars a year, ten-year contract, specialized product line design."
boom! A big hit!
Simply and neatly, Tobias summarized the main contents of the quotations of the two giants. The sharp contrast is clear at a glance. Just a set of numbers can show the courage of Nike and Adidas, but——
I still have to admire Nike’s decisiveness.
Looking purely at numbers, Nike earns 10 million in five years and Adidas earns 30 million in 10 years. Of course, Adidas is higher, but behind the numbers is the difference in positioning.
Adidas is a one-shot deal. They hope to buy Gao Wen's next ten years in one transaction. Although the contract number is high, even if Gao Wen "injures Zhong Yong", their losses can be seen at a glance, but they guarantee They can firmly grasp the current hot topics and open up the Asian market.
Moreover, spending 30 million US dollars to play a game with Nike is not as expensive as imagined, especially after losing the two giants Murray and Djokovic, and missing Bouchard at Wimbledon this year.
It has to be said that Adidas is still a chicken thief. Even in the face of such a situation, their various considerations and calculations can still be seen behind the quotation.
Nike, on the other hand, shows a determination to win.
Signing for five years, from a negative perspective, Nike does have reservations; but from a positive perspective, the contract can be renewed after five years. If Gao Wen can continue to perform strongly, then he will be the beneficiary, and Nike may be Time to write a bigger check.
In addition, the product line dividend of 1.5% is really amazing, even if it comes with restrictions, it is still amazing, because there is no upper limit here.
Of course, Nike is also smart. They have set a bottom line to reduce their risks. If Gao Wen loses his genius early or has insufficient market appeal, then their losses will be controllable; but at the same time, they are also bold and crazy. , open the limits of the sky and let Gawain fly freely.
To put it simply, what Nike is actually betting on is Gao Wen’s confidence in himself and his future in tennis——
If you are confident, choosing Nike will have obvious benefits; if you are not confident, choosing Adidas will ensure you make a lot of money.
Although Nike and Adidas should have negotiated with Tobias alone, there may not be any leakers within the two companies. I am afraid that the overt and covert game between the two giants should also be going on at the same time, and finally appear in front of Tobias. The offers should be trying to contain the opponent.
Tit for tat!
The storm is rising!
Wow!
The amount of information was a bit large and the impact was a bit strong. Gawain couldn't help but widen his eyes, sighed, and then joked with a chuckle.
"Obviously, there's a big, big world out there that I don't know about."
Tobias also chuckled because of Gao Wen's words. He noticed that Gao Wen was not in a hurry to express his opinion. If it were other players, they might have no opinion and were waiting for the agent to make a decision; but after ten months He knew that Gawain already had ideas and still needed to listen to his opinions.
"Gawain, I believe you."
"I believe in your talent, I believe in your hard work, I believe in your desire to win and your belief in fighting. I believe that a Grand Slam championship trophy is not your focus. I also believe that you have more in professional tennis. How possible.”
"So, I believe we should choose Nike. The 1.5% dividend is a huge gamble by Nike, but it is also our confidence."
Be sincere and forthright.
The Tobias in front of him is slightly different from before. In the past few months, he has also been changing bit by bit, which means that after the initial stumbling, their cooperation is slowly getting on the right track.
