Era: Starting from divorce from female college student

Chapter 355, Beating Incident (Subscribe)
January 13, 1978, Central Avenue in Beijiang City.

Raven Albert and Monica Yameyer were stunned by the sea of ​​flowers in front of them.
"Oh my god, is this true? Aren't these flowers so beautiful?"

The day before yesterday, after seeing the promotional video of Central Avenue, they were attracted to it. Then, after some inquiries, they decided to visit Beijiang City and see the sea of ​​flowers.

In fact, Hong Kong Island also has a so-called sea of ​​flowers, but it is far less shocking than that in Beijiang City.

There is a 7.2-kilometer-long central avenue with flowers on both sides of the road. There are also flowers on the barriers in the middle of the road, and there are tall trees. Such a beautiful road view is simply a miracle on earth.

Although such beautiful scenery is man-made, it is still extremely beautiful to Raven Albert and others.

"Monica, I love you!"

The two of them were indeed quite romantic, and they hugged and kissed each other on the street.

Indecent!

Many local people in Beijiang City and other people saw Raven and his wife kissing in the street. They couldn't help but curse, but they couldn't help but watch secretly out of curiosity.

So exciting!
No matter what the outside world says, Raven and Albert don't care and continue to do their own thing.

This central avenue in Beijiang City is so beautiful that it makes people want to walk.

Colorful and vibrant, with the warm breeze blowing, in this spring season, quietly enjoying the beautiful scenery with your favorite person, this is life.

There are no five-star hotels in Beijiang City now, but there are a few three- and four-star hotels, and the rest are second-rate hotels.

However, even the most ordinary hotels have very good decoration and sanitary conditions.

Leaders like Hong Xuanji will always focus on this work no matter how busy they are, because reputation is very important.

That afternoon, Zhao Mancang and his children were riding bicycles on the bicycle lane next to Central Avenue.

Several of Xiao Baozi and his friends came from Hong Kong Island to see him, and also because of the beautiful scenery of Central Avenue, they all wanted to come and see it.

The sea of ​​flowers on Hong Kong Island is not as big as the one in Beijiang City, nor as beautiful.

So after having lunch with their father, they started nagging about coming to Central Avenue for a visit.

The 7.2-kilometer path is filled with tourists walking and cycling.

It was only when Zhao Mancang went out for a bike ride with his children that he discovered that the video advertisement he had arranged earlier had achieved such a good effect. It was really a surprise.

He thought there wouldn't be many tourists, but now it seems that there are at least a few thousand people, right?
Looking around, you can recognize tourists, staff and locals strolling on Central Avenue at a glance.

So as of now, Zhao Mancang can roughly guess the number of tourists.

Nearly ten thousand tourists flocked to the city of Beijiang, which is a very good phenomenon.

It is really not easy for the city of Beijiang to attract so many people to visit now.

"Dad, there are foreigners here..."

After riding the bikes for a while, Xiao Baozi and the others saw Raven Albert and the others and were immediately surprised.

It is quite surprising to see foreigners in an inland area like Beijiang City.

Zhao Mancang was also quite surprised, and nodded slightly to Raven and Albert with a smile on his face.

Seeing Zhao Mancang and his group of father and son, Raven Albert and Monica Yameyer were also quite surprised, because they had extraordinary temperaments and were completely different from others.

With foreigners coming to visit, the tourism industry in Beijiang City can start to take off.

However, we also need to pay more attention to the current situation, such as hotel services, transportation, restaurant hygiene, etc., which are all points that need to be paid close attention to.

It is not easy to run a city well.

So, Zhao Mancang had a brief chat with Raven Albert and others, and found that they had a good opinion of Beijiang City, but expressed their concerns about the hotel environment and dining environment.

"Oh, what hotel are you staying in? Is it unhygienic to eat there? I want to avoid it too."

Hearing this, Zhao Mancang's heart suddenly rose to his throat. He wished he could fire all the relevant persons in charge of the hotel and restaurant mentioned by the two foreigners on the spot, but he smiled calmly on the surface and his mood did not change much.

Sure enough, he soon heard the words he least wanted to hear.

"Yes, there's a restaurant called Fisherman's Village. The fish they serve has a lot of bones. My wife and I were forced to go to the hospital because of this fishbone."

"Besides the fishbone, their waiters' attitude wasn't very good either. I understand that you should have trained them, but..."

After listening to this, Zhao Mancang roughly knew where the problem lay.

There may not be any major problems with the general level of service, but the relevant persons in charge did not seize the opportunity to help solve the problems of these tourists.

Fish bones seem to be a very common problem, but two foreign tourists came here to play and something went wrong during their meal, so we must help them solve it.

The most crucial point is that we didn’t remind the foreigners in advance.

Although Zhao Mancang once emphasized that there is no need to treat these foreigners as "foreign masters", look up to them too much, or even worship them.

But we still have to show the proper service attitude.

It seems that these trainings are still insufficient.

Fortunately, no major problems occurred.

After separating from Raven Albert and the others, Zhao Mancang continued to ride bicycles with his children.

The city of Beijiang has beautiful scenery in spring, and many people come out to play.

But as we were walking around, some problems really arose.

Someone accidentally bumped into a foreign tourist. It was just a small misunderstanding and could have been dealt with with a simple apology. However, this British gentleman named Payton Vasquez became furious. Not only did he not accept the other party's apology, he also cursed at the other party and was very rude. Later, he even started beating the other party. It was simply unreasonable.

Payton Vasquez was furious because a woman named Li Xiaomei had stepped on his shoes, and to top it off, there was dog poop on them. Having shoes covered in dog poop was a sign of bad luck for Payton Vasquez, and he was furious.

"You lowly, stupid barbarian! You stepped in dog shit! Fuck! You made my shoes dirty! Do you think an apology is enough for you?"

Looking at the angry Payton Vasquez, Zhao Mancang had a blank expression on his face.

Compared to this foreigner, what made Zhao Mancang speechless was the police officers from the police station who rushed over after hearing the news. One of them was so servile and respectful to the "foreign master" Payton Vasquez.

And he even helped to scold Li Xiaomei, which was really making a big deal out of nothing.

Although Li Xiaomei was very angry at this time, she also felt very guilty and frightened, so she could only let others beat her up.

Zhao Mancang knew that there would definitely be a lot of people who worshipped foreign things at this time, but he didn't expect that they would appear right in front of him.

It is estimated that there will be many similar situations in Beijiang City in the future. Alas, there is still a long way to go to boost everyone's self-confidence.

Just as Zhao Mancang was about to help, the other two city government officials finally arrived, rushing over from a distance.

One of them was Li Dawei, director of the municipal government office. He saw Zhao Mancang at a glance and was immediately shocked.

He quickly understood the situation on the field, so without saying a word, he stepped forward to pull Payton Vasquez away and asked the latter to apologize to Li Xiaomei.

Why did he do this?

In addition to the fact that Li Dawei himself is an upright person, he had attended many meetings before and heard the point that Zhao Mancang always emphasized: Although we welcome foreign tourists to visit our Beijiang City, we cannot be blindly worshipping foreigners and must be objective and fair.

No matter what the current situation is, it is definitely wrong for Payton Vasquez to hit someone.

What's more, it was just because Li Xiaomei accidentally stepped on someone, so there was no need to hit anyone at all.

"Fuck, you want me to apologize?"

Payton Vasquez was furious. He was a gentleman from Great Britain. What right did he have to apologize?
Why?
Zhao Mancang looked at Li Dawei deeply. If the latter could not handle this matter well, he would have to quit his job as office director.

Nowadays, there are already one or two hundred tourists gathered nearby. There is definitely an impact, and fairness and justice are inevitable. Otherwise, who would dare to visit Beijiang City in the future?

Of course, Li Dawei noticed Zhao Mancang's gaze, so he felt a chill on his back and was a little afraid that his official position would be lost.

Thinking of what Zhao Mancang said in the previous meeting, Li Dawei was at a loss and could only quickly go over the whole story and resolve the matter quickly.

"She just stepped on you and apologized. If you can't accept it, you can step back and make an equal exchange. But you absolutely cannot hit anyone. We in Beijiang City are fair, just, and civilized."

With Li Dawei's "fair" explanation, the matter was quickly resolved.

Payton Vasquez must apologize and compensate Li Xiaomei for medical expenses and mental damages. As for the incident where Li Xiaomei stepped on his foot with her shoes filled with dog poop, that ends here.

You've already beaten someone up, what else do you want?
Upon hearing the result, Peyton Vasquez was furious and said arrogantly:

"God, this is unfair! Why should I pay for her medical expenses and emotional distress? Fuck, she deserves it. You barbarians are so unreasonable. You deserve to be poor and backward."

Insulting people like this has reached another level, so to deal with people like Payton Vasquez, they must be taken into custody and enforced.

The farce finally ended here.

Zhao Mancang glanced at Li Dawei, said nothing, and left with Xiao Baozi and the others to continue their trip.

The next morning, in the conference room of the Beijiang City Government Office Building, Zhao Mancang attended today's meeting.

Hong Xuanji and the others were all very serious.

Since the video of flowers blooming on Central Avenue appeared at home and abroad, many tourists have come to visit the city of Beijiang.

Meiziba Airport, Beijiang Wharf and Railway Station all transport a lot of passengers, especially the wharf and railway station, which have the most tourists.

But the arrival of tourists does not mean that they will be warmly welcomed.

Anyway, judging from the current situation, there are still many problems.

There are not enough propaganda slogans, and there are too few relevant words such as civilization, prosperity, fairness, justice, and transparency. Many things are still not deeply rooted in people's hearts.

Zhao Mancang could understand that there was no experience the first time, so he had to rely on people like Hong Xuanji to do a good job of leadership.

After the meeting was almost over, Zhao Mancang finally spoke:
"You all said very well, let me say two things."

When Li Dawei, who was sitting in a corner of the conference room, heard Zhao Mancang speak, he suddenly felt nervous and a little uneasy.

"First, the restaurant's hygiene must be maintained. I heard the service at a restaurant in Fishermen's Village isn't very good. I know everyone is inexperienced, but isn't it difficult to just do your job well?"

"Many foreign tourists come here, not only to see the flowers, but also to taste the local delicacies of Beijiang City, see the local customs and culture, and visit museums and so on."

"As hosts, besides being hospitable, we also have to do our job well. It's not a big deal for us to eat delicacies like grass carp, but many people eat such fish and are concerned about the fish bones."

"Many things need to be considered more carefully, and we can't just look at one side of the matter."

Hong Xuanji, Lu Shengwen, Li Dawei and others nodded repeatedly to express their agreement.

Immediately afterwards, Zhao Mancang mentioned the second point, which was the issue of hotel service quality.

Beijiang City has a long way to go to build itself into a civilized tourist city, and many of the tasks require continuous accumulation of experience and progress.

Hotels, tourist attractions, restaurants, etc. are the places that tourists come into contact with the most during their travels.

Things at hand are very simple. Five-star hotels have not yet come out, but other star-rated hotels cannot be bad in terms of service attitude and other quality.

"If it really doesn't work, wait until this tourism boom is over and organize a tour abroad to see how others are doing it."

After a pause, Zhao Mancang finally said:
"Also, didn't a beating occur yesterday on Central Avenue? Similar incidents will undoubtedly occur in the future. You must be well prepared. Comrade Li Dawei, you did a great job this time, but I hope that next time, even if I'm not there, you will be fair and just. Otherwise, it will be difficult for our Beijiang City's tourism industry to develop."

"We welcome all friendly guests, but we must also firmly reject those who want to cause trouble. We have long stood up straight and behaved like human beings. There is no need for flattery."
