Chapter 44 Urban Cup, see you or leave
[Xiao Zhao]: Well, Sister An An, are you there?
May 3rd at 11pm.
Dongjiang Communication University, Dormitory 404, Songyuan Building 2.
Ai Jianan, who had been busy all day, was lying on the bed, looking at the WeChat message she had just received, and couldn't help but fall into deep thought.
The day before yesterday, she successfully obtained the WeChat account of the female anchor "Xiao Zhao Miao", and in the next two and a half days, while planning to "pack people away" for next Sunday, she would also talk to "Xiao Zhao Miao" from time to time. "Cheering and asking for help can also be considered as a stepping stone.
What she didn’t expect was that most of her words went unanswered.
Even if there is an occasional reply, it is always a simple response and then the sentence "Sorry, I have to go play chess now", and then the person disappears again...
Faced with this situation Ai Jianan is really confused.
You, a female anchor who plays chess with a dog...can't really be practicing chess, right?
Just when she thought that her eagerness to meet was somewhat obvious and aroused the other party's alert, "Xiao Zhao Miao" took the initiative to send her a message for the first time.
…
Well…
Anyway, let’s see what happens when Xiao Zhaomiao comes to me.
After thinking for a while, Ai Jianan made a decision.
[Jian Luan An Min]: Ah! Xiao Zhaomiao, you are finally willing to take the initiative to find me!
【Jian Luan An Min】: You haven't paid much attention to me. I thought I was annoying you.
[Xiao Zhao]: No, no! I'm just too busy practicing chess recently, I'm really sorry!
[Xiao Zhao]: Also...why are you still calling me Xiao Zhao, meow? This is a shameful name! Just call me Xiao Zhao...
I finally got you to agree. Can you change your mind?
Ai Jianan couldn't help but let out a bad laugh.
[Jian Luan An Min]: Okay, Xiao Zhao Miao.
[Xiao Zhao]:! ! !
[Xiao Zhao]: Sister An An, you are so bad!
[Jian Luan An Min]: Hehe! Okay, it’s so late today, I’m going to have a rest, let’s get down to business first, right?
[Xiao Zhao]: Oh! OK! Sorry for going off topic!
[Xiao Zhao]: That's it... I may not be able to come out for the meeting next week. sorry!
Huh? !
What's going on?
You know, you can't lose Xiao Zhaomiao, just like the West can't lose Jerusalem!
Ai Jianan asked quickly.
[Jian Luan An Min]: Why? Something happened temporarily? Is that okay next weekend?
[Xiao Zhao]: I guess it won’t work next weekend either...
[Xiao Zhao]: Because I don’t have amateur 5th degree here, I’m not qualified to participate in the regular stage competition in July. So I have to find a way to win the championship in the 'City Cup' Dongjiang Division competition, so that I can be directly promoted to Industry 5!
[Xiao Zhao]: I don’t have any amateur rank here, so the competition must start from the audition. The audition will be three days on the 7th, 13th and 14th, the preliminaries on the 20th and 21st, and the semi-finals on the 27th and 28th. No., the final race is June 3rd and 4th. The registration deadline for the fixed stage race is June 10th, which is just right!
[Xiao Zhao]: But correspondingly, I have no time on weekends in the past month. I'm sorry...
After reading the four paragraphs posted by "Xiao Zhao Meow", Ai Jian'an was filled with questions. .
She felt that she could understand every sentence here individually, but she couldn't understand them all together!
It is not surprising to Ai Jian'an that "Xiao Zhao Miao" does not have Ye 5 - although Ye 5 is now on the streets, it is far from being something that a delicate female anchor can easily get.
Even I had to work hard at the beginning!
But...
What does "so I have to win the 'City Cup' championship to advance to Industry 5"?
The prize money in this competition is so high, not to mention the other two "Four Heavenly Kings", at least they can be appointed by Gu Mingqing and Wang Zhen!
He is a real low-level professional player!
Who in the right mind would win this competition and be promoted to 5?
Isn’t that equivalent to applying for a bachelor’s degree with nuclear fusion technology? !
Ai Jian'an complained crazily in her heart, but she couldn't explain it clearly.
The person "Xiao Zhaomiao" was invited out by himself in the name of "offline exchange of Go". If you want to complain that "Xiao Zhaomiao" doesn't understand Go at all, then what is the name of dating someone? All gone!
Ai Jianan pondered for a while and then answered.
【Jian Luan An Min】: Is that so? Then I'll come and watch your game! You are so good, you will definitely be able to enter the main competition smoothly!
After typing this line and sending it out, she quietly thought about how the other party would reply.
In Ai Jian'an's view, it is impossible for "Xiao Zhao Meow" to participate in any competition-dog walking is not allowed in the competition, so how can she win!
Then she found such a funny reason, it was just that she didn’t plan to meet due to some circumstances.
So Ai Jian'an planned to test it deliberately to see if he could find out the other party's real reason, and then further consider how to deal with it.
What she never expected was that in just two seconds, "Xiao Zhaomiao" replied.
[Xiao Zhao]: Ah! Thanks!
[Xiao Zhao]: If you don’t mind...then let’s do it! See you there for the ‘City Cup’ audition next Sunday!
Ai Jianan: "...Huh???"
"What is going on???"
…
…
Late night on the same day, Dajing City, Chinese Go Association. "Is the matter about the Luhuai team settled?"
In the office of the chairman of the Chess Association, Shang Chaotian asked the middle-aged man sitting on the sofa while making tea. road.
This middle-aged man is about in his early forties. He wears a pair of gold-rimmed glasses and is neatly dressed. He looks handsome and elegant.
"We finally reached an agreement reluctantly!"
The middle-aged man said with a wry smile.
“The original sponsor immediately paid 60% of the arrears of wages and bonuses, and then wrote off the account. At the same time, it gave up the sponsorship naming rights for subsequent years, and then renewed the sponsorship. The players also promised to give up the remaining amount of debts. The two parties signed the mediation agreement. "Hey! What kind of world are you talking about, Wenjie?"
Shang Chaotian sighed and put the hot tea on Lu Wenjie. On hand:
"You have nothing to lose by being a deadbeat, but those of us who collect debts end up losing 40% of our money!"
"Brother Tian, there is nothing we can do about it!"
Lu Wenjie held up his hands. Overheating tea can also give you a feeling of being hit hard.
“Luxi Light Industry is a private manufacturing enterprise, and its capital flow has always been tight. In recent years, when the economic situation has been bad, it has become insolvent immediately, and there are a lot of creditors outside waiting to be liquidated!
“If you don’t give up part of the creditor’s rights, you won’t be able to give the other party priority in settlement, and you may not get anything back in the end...”
"Of course I know this!" Shang Chaotian said hurriedly: "Thank you for your hard work on this matter! The most difficult matter of the Luhuai team has been solved, and the subsequent two families will be able to negotiate easily!"
"Also Okay, okay! I'm better than those chess players from the Luhuai team!" Lu Wenjie's words were filled with a sense of powerlessness: "I worked hard and traveled around to participate in competitions, but my salary was never mentioned, and finally I found us. We can only help them get 60%... We will really have to keep a close eye on club sponsors from now on!"
At the end, Lu Wenjie couldn't help but pat the armrest of the sofa.
Shang Chaotian glanced at Lu Wenjie's right hand that was patted on the sofa, then looked at him again, smiling self-deprecatingly:
"Check...but do we have a choice?"
Lu Wenjie was silent for a moment. Xu Jiucai said:
"Although the matter has been resolved this time, the mood of the players is not good.
"Especially Bai Yinhua, who owed wages to his sponsor last year Things have been greatly affected, and the results have been unsatisfactory.
“This time it was easy to get back part of the arrears of salary by giving up the debt, thinking about starting over next season, but the new sponsor saw last year’s results and refused to renew his contract at all.
“His girlfriend also broke up with him when she saw that his grades had not improved throughout last year. Before I left, he looked haggard... To be honest, I didn’t feel good about it! ”
Bai Yinhua...
Shang Chaotian knew that this was a 27-year-old young man from Guanzhong and a professional seven-dan chess player.
In the past two years, there was a great opportunity to be promoted to the eighth dan, but unfortunately it did not succeed.
"Then...has he returned to the Western Capital now or is he still in Luyang?" Shang Chaotian thought for a while and said: "I don't have any good friendships in Luyang. If he returns to the Western Capital, I will find a few The old guy can talk to him face to face, he can comfort and enlighten him!"
"He is still in Luyang, but he doesn't seem to be going back to Xidu for the time being, and instead bought a ticket to Dongjiang later this month."< br>
"Dongjiang? What did he do in Dongjiang?"
"I don't know." Lu Wenjie shrugged: "I guess he planned to go there to have fun and relax. After all, he has been hit hard recently... "
"That's okay...Lao Lei, Lao Yu, and Lao Li are all in Dongjiang. It would be good to go to the metropolis to see the feasting and entertainment!
"It's Lao Lei and Lao Yu here!" I'll probably have to be busy helping Rui Zhao train for a while, so I may not be free. If not, I'll ask Mr. Jiang to come forward..."
This fashionable Chaotian seemed to have thought of something, and the topic changed:
< br>
"Hey, by the way, Wenjie, what I told you this afternoon...have you thought about it?"
Lu Wenjie turned to look at Shang Chaotian for two seconds, nodded and replied: "Yes."
"Tell me what you think?"
"Well... I think it is already a 'special situation' now."
Lu Wenjie answered simply.
"Although this matter is small, if it is not handled well, it may indeed affect the subsequent sponsorship of Weijia. This risk cannot be taken under any circumstances. I support the use of special provisions in the rank management rules. However..."
< br>"But what?"
Lu Wenjie continued to answer: "...But since we two took office, we have been promoting the institutionalization and standardization of all actions. This matter is not easy to do, and it even touches many vested interests. The cake of the author has only begun to bear fruit today
“Now, as the daughter of a sponsor executive, you have to use special terms, whether it is for the credibility of the future rules or for your personal prestige. All have an impact. So I think..."
After Lu Wenjie pondered for a moment, he continued powerfully:
"...This thing can be done, but it must be done so that people are speechless!"
"Well, it seems that you and I want to go together!" Shang Chaotian said with a smile: " Anyway, I will definitely make time to play with Rui Zhao, but what about you, Wenjie? Are you interested, the triple crown champion and [Tian Yuan] eight-time champion?”
“Okay!” Ting Shang Chaotian Saying this, Lu Wenjie showed a rare smile: "It just so happens that we have been so busy talking about salary arrears recently, so it would be nice to play chess with a pretty girl for fun!"
"Haha, then That’s it!”
