Rebirth: My dad is too obedient

Chapter 249 Two Brothers
Xu Chen was thinking in his mind, but he didn't show it on the surface. He politely sent Nie Fei and Chen Xinyi to the elevator hall and followed them down.

He thought about it and said half-jokingly:

"Sister Fei was the director of Nike Greater China before, why didn't you consider starting your own business and creating a brand?"

Nie Fei smiled:
“Sports brands may seem to have a low production threshold, but in fact they require a huge amount of capital and resources, and it is almost impossible for new brands to do so.

Nike, Adidas and other brands spend a huge amount of money on promotion every year, and they also have endorsements from sports stars such as the NBA and the Champions League, as well as sponsorship of various events.

in the country, how much money is spent on CCTV alone every year...

In addition, there are offline self-operated stores and distribution networks all over the country. These are very heavy asset investments that ordinary companies simply cannot afford..."

“The domestic brands, such as Li Ning and Anta, all started early.

That batch of sports and clothing brands in the 1980s and 1990s happened to be in a good time. Foreign investment had not yet come in, which gave them the opportunity to succeed.

If they were to start from scratch now...

Li Ning may still have a chance, after all, he has a world champion, but the other brands are almost impossible..."

Xu Chen listened quietly, but was thinking in his mind.

In fact, Xu Chen had already considered the issues that Nie Fei mentioned.

However, Ranbing Sports’ approach does need further consideration.

In any case, it was a great surprise to learn today that Nie Fei was a "super connection".

Xu Chen still needs to think about how to cooperate in the future or get her over.

……

Xu Chen sent the two of them straight downstairs, where a black business car was already waiting in the parking lot.

The two sides said goodbye politely, and Xu Chen watched the car leave before turning around and going upstairs.

……

……

After a while, Fang Jun came back with a few people.

In addition to Zhao Feng and Fang Tao, there were several other workers who used a trailer to drag in the tables and cabinets to be installed.

Fang Jun explained: "This is from your office."

Xu Chen took a look and found that the color scheme was the same as that of the office area outside, both of which were simple and dark in style.

"Thank you, Mr. Fang Jun."

Fang Jun: "You have to wait two days for the chair. I guess you will sit on it often, so I ordered an ergonomic chair for you."

Xu Chen: "Sister Fang Jun, you are so nice!"

Fang Jun: "Take me for a drink tonight."

Xu Chen: "I'll take you to drink Shanghai old wine."

Fang Jun: "What kind of wine is that?"

Xu Chen: "Yellow wine..."

He thought for a moment and said, "If you don't drink rice wine normally, you might think it doesn't taste that good."

Fang Jun: "Then I'll try."

……

"Brother Chen!" Zhao Feng walked in and called out with a smile.

Xu Chen turned around and found that there was a man following Zhao Feng. He looked somewhat similar to him, and had the build of a big, strong and rough man.

Zhao Feng introduced: "This is my cousin Zhao Kai..."

Xu Chen smiled, stretched out his hand and shook it:

"Hello, my name is Xu Chen."

"Hello, Brother Chen!"

Zhao Kai followed Zhao Feng and called him "Brother Chen" in a muffled voice.

Zhao Feng smiled and said:
"My cousin drives a taxi in Shanghai, and he has a group of brothers here too.

If Brother Chen encounters any problems in Shanghai from now on and can’t find anyone, he can always look for him.”

Zhao Kai smiled, took out a business card from his pocket and handed it over.

Xu Chen took it and found it was a taxi driver's contact card.

Zhao Kai said: "Brother Chen, if you have any problems, just come to me. Although I am just a taxi driver, I have many brothers around me.

If anything happens, I can come and help you at any time."

Xu Chen couldn't help being moved and said:
"Thank you two brothers!"

Xu Chen basically didn't encounter any occasions where he needed "brothers" in Shanghai. But he still felt a little grateful to Zhao Feng and Zhao Kai.

Zhao Kai showed a simple smile:
"My brother said that Brother Chen and Mr. Xu took good care of him...

Anyway, whatever happens in Shanghai, Brother Chen can just treat me as a brother. "

Xu Chen said:

"Are you free tonight? Let's go drink together."

Zhao Kai felt a little embarrassed and scratched his head.

Zhao Feng: "My brother has to drive tonight...

Because I have to leave tomorrow, so I brought him here to meet Brother Chen first."

Xu Chen smiled and said, "We are all in Shanghai anyway. I am studying at Tonghai University. Let's meet again some other time."

Zhao Kai: "It's no problem, Brother Chen!"

Xu Chen glanced at Zhao Feng, feeling somewhat grateful, and reached out to pat him on the shoulder.

This brother of "Brother Bing" really treats himself as a brother.

……

Xu Chen and Zhao Feng sent Zhao Kai downstairs.

Zhao Kai looked embarrassed and kept saying "no need to see me off".

Xu Chen asked the two to wait for a while. He went to the store next door, bought two packs of cigarettes, and handed them to Zhao Kai:
"I should have brought some cigarettes from my hometown, but they're not sold here."

Zhao Kai smiled with an honest look on his face, but was too embarrassed to reach out to take it.

Zhao Feng helped him take it over:

"Brother, just take what Brother Chen bought."

Zhao Kai then said: "Thank you, Brother Chen!"

……

……

In the evening, two workers carried two mattresses to the office on the 8th floor.

Under Fang Jun's command, everyone moved to the conference room first.

Seeing Xu Chen's puzzled expression, Fang Jun explained:
"This was arranged by your father. He said that the mats and mattresses issued by the school must be uncomfortable, so he asked me to buy you a mattress.

1.5 meters, I asked, your dormitory is about this size..."

Xu Chen still had some doubts:

“Why two?”

Fang Jun: "There is another one of Brother Bing, which your father also asked me to buy.

I guess he's about 1.5 meters tall, and if you buy two together you can get a discount of 400 yuan..."

"..."

"Thank you, Sister Fang Jun, it's great to have you here!" Xu Chen said with a smile, looking well-behaved.

He squeezed the two mattresses. They were not completely "soft", but had a certain degree of support.
"Brother Bing will not come to Shanghai until the end of September after the competition. I will find someone to move her there then..."

"Take me for a drink now."

"..."

……

Xu Chen found a seafood barbecue stall on Quyang Road near the school. After all, this kind of occasion is more suitable for drinking.

He first ordered a half dozen bottles of Reebok beer, which he said was produced locally in Shanghai, and placed them in front of Zhao Feng and Fang Tao.

These two little brothers obviously prefer drinking beer.

I also bought a bottle of old Shikumen wine just because Sister Fang Jun wanted to "try it".

Sure enough, she took a sip and said with a frown:

"Why does it look like horse urine?"

Xu Chen was speechless and could only stuff the bottle of "horse urine" to Zhao Feng and Fang Tao.

The two brothers seemed to like it very much and started drinking it by sharing it.

Fang Jun seemed unhappy and turned to stare at the beer on the table.

Xu Chen rummaged through his backpack and pulled out a bottle of Guojiao liquor that he had bought in advance and placed it in front of Fang Jun's sister.

Fang Jun licked his lips and showed an obsessed look.
