The outer city area is very lively today, and the people are actually paying attention to the newly posted notice on the street, which says that a new Cuju competition will be held tomorrow. The people do not know much about Cuju, but this informs
The game schedule is clearly written above, and it also explains that this game is held by the royal family. Since it is held by the royal family, there must be something famous about it, which is why so many people gather outside the Bird's Nest Stadium.
reason.
Earlier, Lao Chen got up relatively early today. He went to find two other food street merchants and made an appointment to go to the Bird's Nest Stadium together. Last night, Chen Chen had already said that he would go there earlier today.
At the Bird's Nest Stadium, Lao Chen was a little strange. He remembered that Chen Chen had said before that on this training day, Chen Chen's grassroots team's training time was in the afternoon, while the Huangtian team's training time was in the morning. Lao Chen felt that Chen Chen seemed a little uncomfortable going to the Bird's Nest Stadium early in the morning.
necessary.
"Dad, in two days, it will be the first game of the new Cuju competition, which is the confrontation between our grassroots team and the Huangtian team."
Lao Chen was a little confused. Although he didn't know much about the rules of the Cuju competition, he still remembered the time of his son's competition. After all, it also involved the opening of their food court.
"I know." Old Chen looked at Chen Chen, not knowing what he wanted to express.
Chen Chen continued: "After this competition, as soon as the grassroots team's competition schedule is over, my teammates and I will go and help Mr. Lu Yao do things."
"Yeah, isn't this a good thing?"
"What I mean is that Mr. Lu Yao and I met because of this new Cuju competition, and later gained his appreciation. Now, including Dad, you have become a small person in charge of this food street project, and so on.
Rely on Mr. Lu Yao's appreciation. Therefore, I want to perform well in this Cuju competition. No matter who the opponent is, I will go all out. Therefore, I will go to the Bird's Nest Stadium to watch the Huangtian Team tomorrow morning.
Only in this way can they win the duel."
When Chen Chen said this, his words were precise and his tone was very serious. Old Chen was stunned for a moment, and then said: "Dad underestimated your determination. I originally thought that you could become Lu Yao's housekeeper, so this
For the Cuju competition, just kick around. I actually forgot for a moment. In fact, you and Mr. Xiao Lu got connected because of the Cuju competition. This is the most fundamental thing you should do."
"Moreover, everyone now thinks that this grassroots team is Mr. Lu Yao's team. Although Mr. Lu Yao did not give me any advice on team decision-making, in the eyes of others, I am Mr. Lu Yao's subordinate. Since
That's it, then I can't embarrass Mr. Lu Yao in tomorrow's game. Even if I lose in the end, I don't want others to gossip behind my back. After all, as long as I lose one game in this game, there will be no future."
Old Chen can see that no matter what position or job Chen Chen or his team members can get after this game, they still attach great importance to tomorrow's game. In fact, Old Chen is also more optimistic about the Huangtian team.
, after all, it was the emperor's team, and it was impossible to be eliminated in the first round. However, seeing his son's desperate state, Lao Chen now felt that it was not impossible for the grassroots team to win.
After that, Lao Chen took two other families and left home with Chen Chen and headed to the Bird's Nest Stadium.
Now, after Lu Yao and the others left, Lao Chen took two other families with him. Of course, Tang Xi was also accompanying him. The group of people observed the cleared area together. Accompanied by the people watching the excitement.
More and more, Lao Chen also saw some familiar faces among these people, and he also had mixed feelings in his heart. Now Lao Chen's identity and status are naturally different from theirs. At this time, Lao Chen somewhat understood
, the meaning of what Chen Chen said to him before, and the help Lu Yao gave them was far more than they imagined.
As for Lu Yao, after inspecting the Bird's Nest Stadium with Zhe Kexing, he made a summary. The last time he and Zhe Kexing came here, they found some problems, but it seems that the craftsmen have made improvements since then.
, there should be no problem holding games in this venue now.
"What's left now is to wait until the two brothers Su Shi and Su Zhe arrive here, and you can conduct a rehearsal of the commentary. If necessary, I can stay until the afternoon." Lu Yao looked at Zhe Kexing and said.
Zhe Kexing waved his hand and said: "Those are small things. As for the commentators and referees, they will come in the afternoon. I will watch here. There shouldn't be any problems. Then I will try the speakers with them and the sound."
What level should be reached? As for the referees, I think the three of them need to adapt to the size of this new venue."
Hearing what Zhe Kexing said, Lu Yao thought of the Kaifeng Mansion trio. He hadn't seen them for a while. Thinking of them at this time, Lu Yao couldn't help but smile and said, "Now that I think about it, I was in the palace before."
Although Mr. Bao could run the entire course in that venue, I saw that he was actually a little out of breath at that time. I wonder if he will not be able to keep up with the physical strength of the venue now that it is a little bigger. Zhan Zhao and Gongsun
I'm not too worried about Ce."
Speaking of Gongsun Ce, even though he is a stutterer, in terms of physical strength, Gongsun Ce is really good. After the previous two warm-up matches, Lu Yao did not see that he was very tired.
Hearing what Lu Yao said, Zhe Kexing also smiled, and then said: "Then it's settled, you should do whatever you want in a while. After all, the game is about to start tomorrow, you'd better go back and have a good rest.
You will be busy tomorrow."
Lu Yao nodded and said: "The final inspection of the commentary and refereeing will be left to you."
Zhe Kexing also nodded, and then said: "Now, there is only one small thing left that I haven't told you."
Lu Yao looked at Zhe Kexing and asked what happened.
Zhe Kexing looked around the Bird's Nest Stadium for a week, and then said: "The size of the Bird's Nest Stadium is indeed big enough, but after all, it can only accommodate five to six hundred people."
Indeed, as true
(This chapter is not finished, please turn the page)
Zhe Kexing said that although the Bird's Nest Stadium looks like a modern standard super stadium, with the craftsmanship of the Northern Song Dynasty, it is already very good to be able to build such a stadium that can accommodate 500 people. However, this time
The game was chosen to be held at this venue, which meant that only five to six hundred people could come to watch the game.
Therefore, Lu Yao still needs to think carefully about the audience.
Lu Yao said: "I think someone should have told you about this issue."
Zhe Kexing smiled and said: "Yes, before I came to the venue today, His Majesty actually gave me a decree. He asked me to ask you if you should be selective about watching the people. However, he also decided
Something.”
Lu Yao first asked Zhe Kexing and what Zhao Zhen had decided.
Zhe Kexing said: "What your Majesty means is that although the ultimate purpose of this Cuju competition is to improve the physical fitness of the people, because the number of places this stadium can accommodate is limited, your Majesty plans to set a slightly higher threshold."
"I know, it's about issues like ticket qualifications." Lu Yao reacted immediately, and then said: "Then how did the emperor plan it? After all, the people who came to watch this game were ordinary people. Your Majesty, he should
We won’t think about expanding the national treasury from them, otherwise no one will pay attention to this game.”
Zhe Katsuyuki said: "Yes, so the price finally set by His Majesty is that everyone who wants to enter the venue to watch the game must pay a penny fee, which is similar to the ticket you mentioned."
One penny, Lu Yao smiled, no one would refuse such a low price, and even after a game, it only collected five or six hundred penny. Moreover, this way, these people can also let these people know.
It is necessary for spectators to watch the game to enter in an orderly manner.
Thinking of this, Lu Yao then said: "I have an idea that can control the number of spectators who go to the stadium to watch the game."
When Zhe Kexing heard this, he knew that Lu Yao must have an idea in his mind, so he asked Lu Yao what solution he had thought of.
In fact, Lu Yao based his method on the one-penny ticket system just given by Emperor Zhao Zhen.
Lu Yao said: "I think we can register every spectator who enters the venue to watch the game, and then slightly limit the number of times they can watch the game, so as to attract more new viewers to watch, so that more people can watch it.
Realize the fun that Cuju brings to them. In fact, it can be like this. For example, in the first round of four games, each spectator who wants to enter the venue to watch the game can only watch two games at most. In the second round, two games
Everyone can only choose one game to watch during the competition. As for the final round, I still need to think about it."
After hearing Lu Yao's idea, Zhe Kexing thought for a moment and said: "So that's it. In this way, we can control the people who can enter the stadium to watch the game. However, those people who are very interested in Cuju,
They may be dissatisfied with this strategy because the number of games they can watch is limited."
Lu Yao didn't seem worried about this. He said: "Don't worry, such high enthusiasm will not be formed so quickly. Moreover, even if there are such people, I estimate that their number will not exceed one hundred. Don't forget
Well, our Cuju competition is actually semi-tentative. When this competition is over, if the competition is held again in the future, the venue will be expanded and the number of events will be increased. By then, these problems will be solved. We are now going to solve the audience arrangement for this competition.
question."
Zhe Kexing thought about it carefully and felt that what Lu Yao said was reasonable. Moreover, in fact, there was a personnel issue regarding the audience arrangement. He just raised it today. Lu Yao should not have considered it before. If Lu Yao had
After thinking about this problem, I would not have waited until the day before the game started until the emperor came up with a basic strategy and then Lu Yao would add to it.
Zhe Kexing can also understand Lu Yao very well. No one is perfect. Lu Yao has so many things to deal with every day. It is normal not to think about this. The game is about to start, but not every detail can be considered by Lu Yao. In fact, according to
Looking at it now, Lu Yao has thought about almost all the relevant details of the Cuju competition, but has not considered the audience. This requires Zhe Kexing and the others to make a suggestion for Lu Yao to improve, which can be regarded as allowing Lu Yao to do it.
dessert.
The basic plan designed by Lu Yao for Zhao Zhen was given a detailed plan in the shortest possible time. Although it sounds like it may arouse resentment among some viewers, according to Lu Yao, indeed, just relying on
It is indeed unlikely that watching one or two games can arouse a huge interest in the sport of Cuju. In Lu Yao's view, the reason that can really make people like Cuju lies more in the people themselves.
Yao wanted them to watch this Cuju competition, and then do some professional training in Cuju when they go back, and then fall in love with the sport of Cuju. Therefore, control the number of games that each common person can watch to allow more viewers
Everyone can become familiar with and understand the new type of Cuju by watching the competition, which is the real purpose of this competition.
As for making this new Cuju competition really reach a scale, or to achieve a universal love, building a larger stadium to accommodate more spectators, in Lu Yao's opinion, that should be the real end of this Cuju competition.
Something to consider later.
Later, Lu Yao had a detailed discussion with Katsuyuki Zhejiang on the details. Lu Yao thought that it seemed very necessary for him to come to the Bird's Nest for a final inspection today. He admitted that he had not considered accommodating the audience before.
Quantity, selection of personnel to control the number of spectators, and ticket matters. The advice given by Zhao Zhen was good. Lu Yao felt that Zhao Zhen should have finally decided on the ticket price after fully listening to Zhe Kexing’s ideas, and
Lu Yao himself took advantage of the situation and designed this method of controlling audience selection based on the basic plan made by Zhao Zhen.
After discussing with Katsuyuki Zhe about the spectators, the inspection at the Bird's Nest Stadium has come to an end. Of course, there will be final inspections of referees and commentators, but in this regard Katsuyuki Zhe said that Lu Yao would be left to him to handle it.
Lu Yao also chose to believe in his brother, and
(This chapter is not finished, please turn the page)
The two brothers Guan Guo and Su Shi and Su Zhe are relatively good at judging and commentating.
For Lu Yao, before the official game begins, he has another very important thing to confirm.
Thinking of this, Lu Yao walked to the sidelines next to Chen Chen and said: "Play well tomorrow. I'm looking forward to the performance of the grassroots team. Don't put any pressure on me."
Chen Chen turned to look at Lu Yao. He also knew that the game would start tomorrow. Lu Yao must be very busy today and had a lot of things to deal with. He couldn't stay here in the Bird's Nest for too long, so Chen Chen said: "Master
Please rest assured that my team members and I will do our best tomorrow. If you have something to do today, just do it first."
Lu Yao nodded, said goodbye to Chen Chen, then said hello to Zhe Kexing, and left the Bird's Nest Stadium alone.
When Lu Yao left the stadium, because there was no way to enter the Bird's Nest today, and because basically all the people in the outer city had seen the notice, there were not as many people watching outside as at the beginning.
Lu Yao found Tangxi, and then chatted with Lao Chen and the others. The food court will open tomorrow. Lu Yao hopes that they will give full play to their skills and strive to make a lot of money.
Lao Chen asked Lu Yao in a low voice. He wanted to know what the chances of his son Chen Chen's team winning tomorrow. Lu Yao could see that Lao Chen was still very concerned about Chen Chen's situation. Therefore, Lu Yao
Yao didn't want to make Lao Chen sad, so he said that as long as Chen Chen tried his best, he still had a chance to win tomorrow's game.
Old Chen was so smart. He could tell right away that Lu Yao was actually trying to comfort himself by saying this. It seemed that objectively speaking, even Lu Yao felt that the Huangtian team had a higher chance of winning tomorrow's game. This was also true.
It's understandable, after all, they are a royal team. At this time, Lao Chen was thinking about how he would comfort Chen Chen if he returned home defeated tomorrow.
Lu Yao and Tang Xi left the Bird's Nest Stadium with him. Tang Xi thought that today's affairs should come to an end and return to the mansion to rest. Unexpectedly, after Lu Yao got on the carriage, he mentioned the destination.
Tangxi didn't expect it.
The place Lu Yao wanted to go was Lu Geng's lottery station, which he had not been to for a long time.
Speaking of lottery stations, since Lu Yao collectively transformed most of his industries, including lottery stations, he has basically not had much control over these industries except for signing a share-sharing contract.
There are still some differences between the lottery station and other transformed industries, that is, other industries have changed their bosses in modern terms, but their nature is still a private enterprise. But the nature of this lottery station is that it has changed from a private enterprise to a state-owned enterprise.
, that is, it is a royal enterprise, so Lu Yao cannot point fingers at the lottery station. As for Lu Geng, he was still an operator working for Lu Yao before, but now, in fact, Lu Geng is, in a sense,
In fact, he has become a civil servant of the royal family. He is basically working for Zhao Zhen.
Therefore, Tangxi didn't understand why Lu Yao wanted to go to the lottery station today. When faced with Tangxi's question, Lu Yao only gave a two-word answer: Football Lottery.
Tangxi understood instantly. Football lottery is a variant of lottery. Although Lu Yao has said before, football lottery will establish a separate football lottery base by then, which must be separated from the current lottery station. Moreover, by then this
The operation of the football lottery station will be won by the winner of this Cuju competition, and the leader of that team will be responsible.
However, the winner must be determined through a competition after all, and the football lottery cannot wait until the end of the Cuju competition. Therefore, when Lu Yao discussed with Zhao Zhen before, he decided to first get a piece at the lottery station.
An exclusive area is used for football betting, and the person in charge is temporarily Lu Geng. When the competition is over, the management rights and the place will be handed over to the winner. And this Cuju competition is actually being conducted by Lu Yao
Experiments in football lottery. For example, odds, bet size and other aspects of things. Through this first Cuju competition, not only must things about Cuju be improved, but at the same time, the football lottery that came into being with Cuju must also be carried out.
Continuous improvement.
Lu Yao's idea is good, but Lu Geng is very busy here. He doesn't have the ability to react as quickly as Lu Yao. Although, after Lu Geng's interview with the saint, he had already handed over the football lottery stuff.
In his hand, he also took the people below to read it several times, and he roughly understood it, but Lu Geng was still not sure about the odds and details. However, Lu Geng’s investment in football lottery
It's not that high. After all, he knows very well that he is at most a passing god of wealth. Although Zhao Zhen has made it clear that in the football lottery activities related to this game he runs, Lu Geng can get 30% of the profits.
Now Lu Geng, who has no idea about the income from football lottery, still feels that the money earned from football lottery is definitely not as much as that from lottery stations, so there is no need to invest too much energy in football lottery.
In addition, after this game, Lu Geng will hand over the management rights of football lottery. Not only that, Zhao Zhen will definitely establish a supervision agency for football lottery in the later period, but judging from that, Zhao Zhen has no intention of using it.
Lu Geng's thoughts. If this is the case, why should he do his best for an industry that he will definitely hand over?
Because of this idea, Lu Geng actually doesn't care much about football lottery. Although the infrastructure and betting aspects have been completed, the lottery station now also has a dedicated area for football lottery and several service personnel.
Yes, but because of Lu Geng's attitude, he made it clear that if you come to buy, you will sell. But if it comes to some specific details, just put on a posture of whether you want to buy or not. Don't go too far.
They were concerned about the income from this football lottery. The people under my command originally wanted to study this new thing more, but seeing their boss saying this, they all lowered their attention to football lottery.
It is precisely because of this lack of attention from top to bottom that when Lu Yao arrived at the lottery station, he saw two people who wanted to inquire about football lottery. Because the service staff had a bad attitude and refused to explain, they finally left in anger.
Appear.
Lu Yao asked Tang Xi to stop the two people, and he personally took action and explained the relevant knowledge of football lottery to the two people.
