Chapter 663 Fakes hurt people

The latest website: The Kobe Eagle County incident immediately made the front page headlines of the national newspapers.

Top stars are involved in sexual assault cases, which is more fragrant than any gossip, and instantly became the focus of the United States.

At Nike headquarters, Dyson, an executive, looked at the latest newspaper and said: The police in Eagle County have signed an arrest warrant for Kobe. It seems that Kobe is at least going to have a lawsuit.

I didn't expect things to get so big. I thought the woman was just trying to extort Kobe for a sum of money. Kobe should have calmed down, but now he's going to court! The assistant next to him also sighed.

How can I say it, when this kind of thing happens, it can only be regarded as Kobe's bad luck! Dyson continued: But we have to dig Kobe over before, and we can only do it temporarily!

I guess this matter still cost money in the end. Kobe didn't have the money to hire a lawyer, so he shouldn't be convicted! the assistant said.

Finding a better lawyer can indeed exonerate him, but it will also greatly affect his image. At least the sponsors will keep him at a distance. Maybe this guy will fail and lose commercial value forever.

Dyson paused, then said; Anyway, we have successfully won LeBron James, so don't go to Kobe's muddy waters.

...

Boss, sorry to bother you, you shouldn't have slept yet? James Bond said in a hurry.

I didn't sleep so early. Li Weidong continued: Call me in such a hurry, is there any latest progress in Kobe's affairs?

Yeah, I just received the news that Eagle County Police has signed an arrest warrant for Kobe, and the situation is very unfavorable for Kobe. He is likely to face criminal charges. James Bond said.

With the legal system in the United States, Kobe shouldn't be imprisoned. He didn't have the money to hire a lawyer. Li Weidong said.

But this has dealt a great blow to Kobe's image, and many sponsors have terminated their cooperation with Kobe. James Bond continued:

But this may be good news for us, because Nike also gave up Kobe, we don't have to worry about Kobe being poached by Nike.

Li Weidong said, After all, Kobe has cooperated with us for many years. At this time, he is facing difficulties and needs support the most. Let's make an announcement to express our belief in Kobe's innocence.

And will always support him!

In this case, will it affect our brand image. In fact, we can continue to cooperate with Kobe, but we don't need to express our position at all. James Bond said.

We have an old saying in China, that adversity sees the truth, so we need to express our position, so Kobe will definitely be grateful to us. Li Weidong continued:

And I think Kobe is worth our gamble! Jordan has retired, and Kobe is still young. As long as he gets through this difficulty, it is very likely that he will grow into the number one player in the league, and our brand value will also increase. !

Moreover, we are also expressing an attitude. For spokespersons, even if they make mistakes, we will not abandon them. I believe that other spokespersons will not leave us easily after seeing it.

After the call was over, James Bond picked up a gossip magazine with a photo of the hotel lady at the front desk.

It doesn't look good, it's just young... James Bond frowned.

A few days ago, when Nike wanted to poach Kobe, the boss wasn't in a hurry at all, and said that Nike would give up on his own initiative. Did he expect something to happen?

My boss, I only have a unique vision for rookies, how can I have such a precise vision for the peach incident? Could it be that this female front desk was arranged by the boss!

...

Although Kobe was arrested by Eagle County police, he was released on bail immediately.

Inside the commercial car, the agent said: I just talked to the lawyer, and the current evidence can only prove that you have had a relationship, but there is no sufficient evidence to prove that you were sexually assaulted. If the two sides disagree, the lawsuit may be will play for a long time.

According to past cases, this kind of lawsuit will eventually be settled, and the key is how much the settlement will cost. And the lawsuit has been going on for a long time, which is also very unfavorable to us, so the lawyer suggested that we should treat ourselves as unlucky, pay more money, and reach a settlement with the other party as soon as possible.

Kobe didn't respond, just stared blankly ahead.

Seeing Kobe was not very interested, the agent said, Let me tell you an interesting thing! A guy called and said that as long as we were willing to pay $3 million, we could kill that female front desk! We have already The police were called, and Buddha Broadcasting found the guy, who is said to be a fitness trainer.

Kobe was still sitting there indifferently.

The agent sighed lightly, and continued, Kobe, I know this has hit you hard, but you need to cheer up! Immediately!

Well, if there is any bad news, tell me together! Kobe finally spoke.

Three more sponsors have decided to terminate their cooperation with us. There is also Nike. Didn't they want to poach you before, and now they have decided to cancel the previous plan. This time, our loss may be as high as tens of millions of dollars.

The agent's voice paused, and then said; The other is our sneaker sponsor Leaping...

Feiyue also wants to terminate the contract with me, right? Kobe asked with a gloomy face.

No, you guessed wrong this time. The agent said with a smile on his face: Feiyue issued a statement today, saying that he believes you are innocent and will support you as always.

In addition, the CEO of Feiyue also called me and said that regardless of the outcome of this incident, Feiyue will continue to cooperate with us!

Feiyue is willing to support me! Kobe showed a moved expression on his face.

Since the Eagle County incident, many sponsors have cut off their cooperation with Kobe, and they can't wait to distance themselves from Kobe. It's nice to be able to keep silent.

Aside from family members and agents, almost no one came out to support Kobe, including those of Kobe's teammates and the Lakers' front office.

Now, a sponsor finally came out to support Kobe, which made him feel a rare warmth in his heart.

Thank you to Feiyue for me. Kobe took a deep breath and continued; Also, tell Feiyue that since I signed a lifetime endorsement contract with Feiyue, I will not switch to other brands, and I will not go anywhere!

...

Judging from the various information released in later generations, Kobe's Eagle County incident obviously encountered a fairy jump.

From a moral point of view, cheating in marriage is definitely a wrong thing, which is the biggest stain in Kobe's life.

And Kobe was also punished accordingly and suffered a huge blow.

In terms of family, Kobe's wife Vanessa had a miscarriage because of this, and perhaps Kobe lost a son and no heir to his basketball career.

If Vanessa can keep this baby, maybe we can still see Bryant Jr., wearing his father's number, galloping on the court today.

In terms of business, Kobe suffered even more losses. A large number of sponsors left him. The direct losses were as high as tens of millions of dollars, and the indirect losses were in the hundreds of millions.

Historically, Adidas also gave up Kobe because of this matter and began to focus on cultivating Tracy McGrady. Bryant therefore switched to Nike, but because of the impact of the Eagle County incident, Bryant did not get a good contract at Nike.

On the court, Bryant's data also dropped sharply, from 30 points per game to 24 points per game.

For most of the season, Kobe Bryant kept shuttling between the court and the court in order to deal with the lawsuit. He missed some practice sessions and sometimes didn't even feel the pitch before the game started. Teammates complained about this, and it also made the Lakers' already unhappy locker room atmosphere even more tense.

This season, the F4 formed by the Lakers lost to the Pistons, the legendary superstar Karl Malone retired sadly, and the OK group fell apart.

Fortunately, in the two seasons from 2005 to 2007, Kobe entered his peak and opened a personal show mode, including an amazing performance of 81 points in a single game, which helped him quickly regain his popularity.

Afterwards, the two championships of the Lakers completely confirmed the title of the first person in the league, which was regarded as a complete cleansing of the stains.

...

As soon as Wang Jiuyang, the general manager of Puppy Electric Co. got out of the car, he heard someone crying in the office building.

What happened? Wang Jiuyang quickened his pace and walked over following the voice.

My daughter was disfigured by using your soymilk maker. You don't even care about it. Black-hearted merchants deserve to be hit by five thunders! A woman's scream sounded.

Wang Jiuyang walked in and saw a middle-aged woman in her forties splashing on the ground.

What's going on? Wang Jiuyang asked.

A staff member quietly stepped forward and said, Mr. Wang, this person said that his daughter used our soymilk maker to make soymilk, and the soymilk maker suddenly exploded during use, and the hot soymilk splattered her daughter's face. Caused burns, she is here to ask for an explanation!

Our soymilk machine exploded? It's unlikely! The quality control at the electrical factory has always been very strict! Wang Jiuyang frowned and then asked, How is the condition of the injured?

It is said that she has been sent to the hospital, and the specific injury is still unknown. The staff paused, and then said: This woman came to ask us for medical expenses and compensation.

How much does she want? Wang Jiuyang then asked, he was worried that the other party was deliberately defrauding.

I didn't say that. The staff replied.

Wang Jiuyang thought for a while, then stepped forward.

Hello, I'm Wang Jiuyang, the general manager of Puppy Electric. You can't solve the problem even if you're crying. I think so, why don't you get up first, let's go inside the house and talk slowly? Wang Jiuyang said.

General manager? Are you in charge? the middle-aged woman asked with a vigilant look.

Wang Jiuyang nodded: Yes, I'm in charge, and I'm also helping you solve problems. Everyone here has to listen to me, so what happened, you can tell me the most useful. There is the reception room. , let's go together, what happened, please tell me slowly.

Seeing that someone who could manage is coming, the woman stopped crying and followed Wang Jiuyang to the next conference room.

Someone poured twice the tea, and Wang Jiuyang said, This eldest sister, drink tea to moisten your throat first.

The woman took a sip of tea and calmed down, and then she said, I bought a soymilk machine from you and made soymilk at home. It was fine at first, but it only took ten minutes. It exploded suddenly, and my daughter was just standing next to her, with hot soy milk splashing all over her face! Half of her face was ruined! How can she get married in the future!

There is such a thing! Although Wang Jiuyang had heard of this incident, he deliberately showed a surprised expression, and then asked, Has anyone been sent to the hospital?

The woman nodded: It has been sent, the doctor said...

The woman was only halfway through when Wang Jiuyang interrupted her: Go and prepare some condolences, and then provide some financial support. I want to see the injured in person!

Then Wang Jiuyang turned his head to look at the woman, and continued: Eldest sister, I think it's more important to treat the injury first, and let's discuss the rest slowly. Let's go to the hospital first and find out about your daughter's condition. I also know a few experts in the burn department, let's try to find a way to restore your daughter's appearance as much as possible.

Hearing that Wang Jiuyang was going to the hospital in person, the middle-aged woman stopped temporarily.

After sending the middle-aged woman away, Wang Jiuyang found his subordinate and whispered: After a while, when you come out of the hospital, you can find an excuse to go to the injured person's house and investigate whether her daughter was really caught by our soymilk machine. It was blown up. And be sure to bring back the fried soymilk maker.

...

Under the banner of going home to condolences, his subordinates came to the injured person's home, delivered condolences such as milk and eggs, and then brought back the fried soymilk maker.

Looking at the soymilk maker that had been burned and blackened, Wang Jiuyang subconsciously picked up a piece of the shell.

Why is it so thin, isn't this cutting corners! Wang Jiuyang frowned and said to himself, What did Wang Jing do, throwing the quality of the product behind? This kind of quality can also Appearing? Is this guy full of his own pockets!

Just then, a technician came in.

It's this soymilk maker. Let's find out the reason for the explosion. Is it a design problem or a material problem? Wang Jiuyang instructed.

The technician stepped forward immediately, looked at it for a few seconds, and then turned around.

Have you found the reason so quickly? Wang Jiuyang asked immediately.

Mr. Wang, the cause of the explosion has not yet been found, but it is certain that this is not our product! the technician said.

What do you mean? You mean this is a soymilk maker from another brand? Wang Jiuyang stared at him and said with an unhappy expression: Since it's not our soymilk maker, why would women come to us to make trouble! This is not wrong. people!

The technician explained: Mr. Wang, although this is not our product, but from the residual part, the appearance is the same as our product.

Moreover, the materials used in this soymilk machine are very inferior, the materials are the worst from the inside to the outside, the circuit layout is also very simple, and the parts are also the worst products.

If I read it right, this soymilk maker should be a fake and shoddy product, a fake made by a small workshop that imitates our soymilk maker!

Fake and shoddy! Wang Jiuyang suddenly let out a sigh of relief: Fortunately, it's not our product. It's just a pity that the girl is ruined at a young age. Fakes hurt people!
