Nike is one of the world’s leading sportswear and equipment manufacturers. It leads the world in sales ofathletic shoes. The company was founded in 1964 by Bill Bowerman and Philip Knight. Its first name was Blue Ribbon Sports but that changed to Nike in 1978. Nike is the Greek goddess of victory. It is famous for its slogan, “Just Do It” and the Swoosh logo, which Nike first used in 1971. Blue Ribbon’s first productwas a soccer shoe called Nike. A major factor in Nike’s success is its sponsorship of top sports stars. Tennis ace Ilie Nastase was the first. Subsequent tie-ups with superstars like basketball’s Michael Jordanand golfer Tiger Woods accelerated Nike’s corporate success. Nike has had to defend itself against criticism that its products are made by children and workers paid below the legal minimum wage in sweatshops.
耐克是全球知名的運動和設(shè)備制造商之一。因銷售運動鞋而引領(lǐng)世界。1964年，比爾·鮑爾曼和菲利普·耐特創(chuàng)辦了該公司。起初的名字叫作藍(lán)帶體育用品公司，但是在1978年更名為耐克。耐克的英文原意指希臘勝利女神。“Just Do It”是其最著名的商標(biāo)標(biāo)語，1971年，耐克開始使用“Swoosh”標(biāo)志。藍(lán)帶體育用品公司所生產(chǎn)的首個產(chǎn)品是一雙名叫“耐克”的球鞋。耐克成功的最大因素之一要歸功于超級體育明星的代言。網(wǎng)球選手納斯塔斯是第一個。隨后還有籃球巨星邁克爾·喬丹，高爾夫選手老虎·伍茲，他們都使得耐克更加成功。耐克還必須捍衛(wèi)自己，面對質(zhì)疑，有人稱耐克的產(chǎn)品都是由兒童制作產(chǎn)生，工人工資低于法定最低值。
