Outsider: The Fifth Young Master of the Kang Family

Chapter 151 I Have a Date with Football (I)

"Brothers, may I ask what this is?"

On the first day of May, the second brother called the five brothers of the Kang family to gather in the tea restaurant. As soon as he arrived, he took a football and put it on the table and asked everyone if they knew what it was. A Yao and A Zu ignored him and waited for his next words. The eldest brother Guang took out a watermelon and said, "A Zong, are you confused about your work? It's Tianxiu's football. You want to eat fruit, right? This is it."

The second brother shook his head and sighed, "Have you noticed that the eldest brother has become much smarter recently? He even knows that this is football, hahahaha." The second brother was obviously saying that among the five brothers, only the eldest brother didn't understand his deep meaning and naively thought that he wanted to make money. "Big brother, you know what kind of person Er Er is. He definitely didn't call us here for a simple reason. He had a purpose." A Yao explained to the eldest brother, "The second brother must be thinking that the World Cup is coming soon, and the brothers are thinking of a way to make money together during the World Cup, right?"

"This is the difference between being a big eater and a big brainer." Er Lao nodded and sat down to praise. Da Lao Guang was speechless, while A Zu smiled and said, "In my opinion, Er Lao doesn't think so. He doesn't want us to help him find a way, but he has already thought about it, and now he just wants to show off in front of us."

"This is the difference between eating a big onion and eating a big brain." Er Lao laughed. In Cantonese, onion means smart. At this time, the store employee brought a bottle of wine and put it on the table. Er Lao pointed at the wine and asked, "Excuse me, what is this?"

"Oh," Big Brother Guang answered again, but after thinking about it, he tentatively said, "Water with alcohol added." He didn't say alcohol directly, he felt that the answer would not be that simple, although he didn't know what the answer was.

The second man laughed and said, "Good answer, good answer." Then he pointed at the employee who just brought in the wine and asked, "Excuse me, what is this?"

The boss is both a novice and a playful person, and he repeatedly answered: "The employee you invited back."

"Wrong! I was talking about this apron. I'll give you one more chance. What does an apron plus wine plus balls equal?" The second brother tested the eldest brother Guang again. The eldest brother Guang thought about it again and again, and finally got an idea. He patted the table and said excitedly: "I understand. Hahaha. So your plan is to open Ruhao Tea Restaurant, sell wine and balls."

Hahahaha. Kang Qirui and the other three all laughed. What was going on in Big Boss Guang's mind? How could he have thought that Big Boss wanted to sell footballs in the tea restaurant? A-Zu covered his chest and smiled and said, "So I've always said that Big Boss is always so smart."

Da Lao Guang thought that A Zu was really praising him, and he was very happy. He asked with concern: "A Zu, are you feeling uncomfortable? Why are you holding your chest all the time?" Kang Qirui patted A Zu on the shoulder to tell him to stop, and then said to Da Lao Guang: "Big Brother, he is praising you with a guilty conscience."

This is also the reason why Kang Qirui was not confident in handing over the tea restaurant to Da Lao Guang. Da Lao Guang's qualifications were really not enough to support a store. He didn't want everyone to laugh at what he said, so he said directly: "Second Brother, what are your thoughts? Tell us so that everyone can listen."

"Okay, my idea is very simple, and I've written it all here." When Er Lao heard Kang Qirui's question, he took out a handwritten newspaper and showed it to everyone. Everyone read it in unison: "Come to a famous restaurant, drink famous wine, and watch a famous team score a world-class goal?"

"What's tin? Kick." Er Lao corrected everyone, and everyone was speechless. Er Lao looked smart, but he could make a mistake in writing such a simple word as kick. "What do you think? Tell us your opinions, brothers." Er Lao continued to solicit everyone's opinions.

Big Brother Guang: "Not bad, this slogan is quite catchy."

A Yao: "I just think that there are too many words, and it's a bit flowery. It's better to be more practical."

A-Zu A-Zu didn't say anything, he was busy cutting watermelons. . The second brother ignored him and looked at Kang Qirui. After all, Kang Qirui was the big boss, and Kang Qirui's consent was needed. "The idea is fine, but how can we watch it? We don't have a TV here." "So, I plan to buy a TV in Ruhao Tea Restaurant." The second brother followed Kang Qirui's words and said, "Why do I want to buy a TV? Because the World Cup is about to start, put a TV here, let the fans come here to watch the game, and consume while watching the game. And before the World Cup starts, I plan to replay the games of the last World Cup to warm up the fans and create an atmosphere."

Kang Qirui thought about it and felt that this was a good idea. He nodded and said, "I think it's a good idea. I support you, second brother." Kang Qirui even thought that the clothing store could also organize some World Cup activities, not those ordered by the headquarters, but their own activities of the Guangzhou branch. The specific ideas need to be discussed with Sachiko when he returns.

"I think it's good too, Er Lao. It's a breakthrough to hear you say that." A Yao agreed while eating watermelon. He really thought this idea was a good one. "It's not a breakthrough yet." Er Lao continued to talk about his idea: "I'm also going to organize a 'World Cup' knowledge quiz with prizes, and then a lottery. Haha, A Zu, the only one who didn't give any advice, what do you think?"

"A-Zu ate two pieces of watermelon and left." The eldest brother said. The second brother was getting more and more excited, and didn't notice that A-Zu had left. Kang Qirui also stood up, "I think there is something to be done. I support you, second brother. I'm going back to take care of my daughter first." Seeing that Kang Qirui was leaving, A Yao also followed him home.

After Kang Qirui returned to the Kang family, he saw Zhu Wanling taking her daughter for a nap, but he did not bother them. Instead, he started writing down his plans for the World Cup on his desk. He carefully recalled the situation of this World Cup, and then made a plan based on the specific situation.

First of all, betting on the World Cup. Sports lottery has been able to buy wins, draws, losses and scores since 01. Although many people say that the outsiders manipulate the results of football, sports lottery is not the outsiders, and compared with the power of the outsiders, South Korea has a stronger belief in creating history. No matter how bad the outsiders are, they can't be worse than South Korea in this session.

Secondly, the promotional plan for the clothing store. He came up with a gimmick: if the Chinese national football team wins a game, Meibang will refund the full amount. The more he thought about it, the more perfect it seemed. This was the first time that the Chinese national football team entered the World Cup, and the whole country had very high expectations for the national football team. Everyone set three goals for the national football team: score a goal, get a point, and win a game. So he referred to the 18-year story and came up with such a gimmick. Then he refined it a little bit: if they win a game, they will refund the full amount, if they get a point, they will refund half of the amount, and if they score a goal, they will get % off.

By the time he finished thinking about his World Cup plan, it was almost time for dinner. Sachiko had already returned from get off work, so he told her his plan in detail. As he was talking, Ayao was listening beside him. Today was May Day, Ayao had a holiday, but the clothing store did not, as there were many things that needed to be taken care of during the holiday.

After listening to this, A Yao asked in confusion, "A Rui, do you really think that the Chinese national football team can't even score a goal?"

"Why do you say that? Can't it be that I really like the Chinese national football team and that's why I'm doing this promotion?" Kang Qirui asked back. A Yao didn't believe a word of it: "You businessmen, are you so kind? Do you really think the Chinese national football team can win a game? How could you do this? Aren't you afraid of going bankrupt?"

Uh, that's absolutely true. Didn't the original creator of this idea choose the final champion? Did he really refund the money?

But in a sense, A Yao was not wrong. Kang Qirui, who was familiar with history, really knew that the Chinese national football team would not score a single goal, so he organized this event. But he was confident, but Sachiko was not. She worried, "A Yao is right. What if we really win? The headquarters gave us the plan for the World Cup event these days. I took a look and everyone is very confident in the Chinese national football team."

Kang Qirui waved his hands, "Can they understand as well as I do?"

No one knows football better than Kang Qirui! The Chinese national football team's entry into the finals is the result of favorable conditions. It is really difficult to get a point in the finals. Even the weakest Costa Rica cannot be beaten by the Chinese national football team.

"How about we have a meeting tomorrow to discuss it?" Sachiko still didn't dare to agree. She thought about convincing Kang Qirui with everyone else during the meeting. Kang Qirui nodded. It was fine. After all, it was a meeting. Most of the shareholders were from the Kang family. He was confident that he could convince everyone.
