It has been almost a month since Kobe Bryant played his final NBA game for
the Los Angeles Lakers and although he could've used some much-needed time
off after 20 years of service, the future Hall of Famer has been busy running
his company Kobe Inc.
距離Kobe最後一場在nba的比賽已經快一個月了
雖然他可以在長達20年籃球生涯後小憩一下
但這位準名人堂成員已經在為他的公司做準備而忙碌
According to ESPN's Darren Rovell, Kobe Inc. has filed to trademark
Bryant's synonymous nickname, Black Mamba:
根據ESPN的Darren Rovell提到: Kobe公司已經為其註冊了Kobe的招牌綽號"黑曼巴"
Kobe Inc., the business arm of recently retired Los Angeles Lakers guard Kobe
Bryant, has filed to trademark his familiar nickname “Black Mamba.”
The company filed for the trademark May 2, a record with the U.S. Patent and
Trademark Office shows, with intent to use the nickname on everything from
athletic apparel to sneakers.
退休的湖人後衛Kobe的公司 在5/2註冊了"黑曼巴"
從美國專利商標局的紀錄中可以看出 他想要使用他在球員時期出現在他球鞋上的指標
After watching Quentin Tarantino's classic, “Kill Bill,” Bryant took a
shine to the nickname made famous by the lead character played by Uma
Thurman. The Black Mamba nickname and the logo used in the movie became part
of Bryant's persona with the NBA superstar calling himself the Black Mamba
as he entered the post-Shaquille O'Neal chapter of his basketball career
with the Lakers.
在看了昆汀的電影"追殺比爾"後 Kobe瞬間愛上了由鄔瑪舒曼飾演其主角的綽號
這個在電影中出現的標誌後來成為了NBA巨星kobe的象徵
Kobe在他籃球生涯進入後O'Neal時代後開始用"黑曼巴"自稱自己
Bryant's attempt to trademark “Black Mamba” is one of many others Kobe
Inc. is looking to use moving forward, via Rovell:
Black Mamba is the 11th trademark filing for Kobe Inc. Other phrases that the
company has filed for include “HeroVillain,” “Create Forever,” “Dream
Epic” and “Friends Hang Sometimes, Banners Hang Forever.”
Rovell還說到: Kobe打算繼續使用這個稱號 而這也只是kobe公司註冊的其中之一
其他還有商標還有 “HeroVillain,” “Create Forever,” “Dream
Epic”“Friends Hang Sometimes, Banners Hang Forever.”
With Bryant settling into his post-basketball career, there's bound to be
many more headlines made by the five-time NBA champion in the coming years.
Bryant is determined to be as successful in his next endeavor with Kobe Inc.
as he was during his two decades wearing the purple and gold and he hasn’t
wasted any time making the transition.
在Kobe進入他非球員的生涯後 相信未來幾年這位5冠明星一定會為新聞帶來許多的頭條
而Kobe也會竭盡所能為其公司帶來成功 他不會浪費任何轉職的時間
就像他20年來在紫金球員生涯的努力一樣
