来清华干什么？当然是为了和年轻人"打成一片"，在品牌竞赛中率先起跑。艾媒咨询的统计数据显示， 预计2030年，中国运动鞋服行业市场规模将达到8963亿元。户外运动异军突起，马拉松运动如火如荼， 这些都侧面促使鞋服市场不断增长，品牌竞争也更加激烈。想要分羹国内市场，他们不仅在产品端暗暗 较劲，也在如何拉拢年轻消费群体上不断想出新招。毕竟年轻人才是消费市场的主力。 中国市场在消费变迁下涌动着巨大机遇，但竞争白热化，消费者偏好瞬息万变。想要赢得这块蛋糕，更 需在情感和文化层面早早"占位"，为下一个十年铺路。 每经记者｜王紫薇 每经编辑｜王紫薇 10月17日，耐克集团总裁及CEO贺雁峰（Elliott Hill）走进清华大学，进场便给同学们比心，引起一阵 欢呼。上任之后，贺雁峰已多次来华。这次在会上，学生现场直接"boss直聘"，贺雁峰也跟学生打得有 来有回。 此次，耐克CEO和清华大学校长共同出席清华大学百年西操焕新活动。在活动现场，鞋子们很抢眼。说 到跑步鞋，那可是耐克这次财报中最显著的增长引擎。本财季，耐克跑步业务在全球实现了约20%的增 长，在中国市场也实现了高个位数增长，成为一大亮点。 ...

周二清晨，秋意清冽，位于俄勒冈州比弗顿的菲利普·H·奈特园区，耐克员工们在天光微露前陆续抵达，有人在绕园区慢 跑，有人在健身房里举重训练。在耐克体育中心健身房的4号训练室中，大约二十人正在为早上7点的高强度间歇训练（HIIT） 课程做热身。 其中一位，是耐克集团首席执行官兼总裁贺雁峰（Elliott Hill），他是这里的常客，经常兴致勃勃地给大家推荐园区的各 类设施。此刻，他站在训练室第一排正中，脚边一对哑铃。训练室音乐动感十足，贺雁峰踩着鼓点，一边锻炼，一边和身边的 同事聊天，询问他们波特兰马拉松的完赛成绩，还试图用话题分散他们在平板支撑最后10秒的注意力。尽管晨曦初露，他已热 情洋溢、精神饱满，既像啦啦队长般充满激情，又像教练般鼓舞人心。 下课后，一位员工抓住机会再次向他自我介绍。她说，12年前，两人有过一面之缘，当时她在肯塔基州路易斯维尔的零售 部门工作。他曾给过她一些职业建议：若想在耐克更进一步，就要提前思考两个职位，搞清楚那些岗位需要哪些技能，并下定 决心去掌握它们。如今，12年过去，她已成为Nike Pro训练服装的产品经理。 贺雁峰与她握手，并表示自己依然认同当初的建议——在他看来，成功的关键 ...

21世纪经济报道记者贺泓源、实习生韦怡琦 这体现在来华频率。10月，阿迪达斯全球首席执行官（CEO）比约恩·古尔登（Bjoern Gulden）访华， 除了参加上海市咨会，古尔登还在北京拜访了国家体育总局局长、中国奥委会主席高志丹；他亦参与了 上海交通大学的相关活动。 除了宏观因素，在中国市场的不同身位，或许也在鼓励着古尔登多向外界释放积极信息。 截至2025年8月31日的最新财季，耐克大中华收入同比下滑10%至15.12亿美元（约合107.75亿元人民 币）。具体来看，跑步品类表现较好（高个位数增长），但客流下滑、促销环境激烈及清仓库存压力持 续影响复苏。大中华是耐克第三大销售区域，营收占比13.3%，北美占比44.2%，EMEA（欧洲，中东和 非洲市场）占比29.3%。 作为对比，今年二季度，阿迪达斯大中华区收入同比增长11%至7.98亿欧元（约合66.53亿元）。从营收 来看，大中华区占比13.4%，仅次于欧洲（33.6%）、北美（22.5%）市场。 中国市场对运动巨头越来越重要了。 可要看到，基于耐克销售基数超过了阿迪达斯接近40亿元，单纯比增速也不一定公平。在2024年，阿迪 达斯在华市场占有率8. ...
