Chapter 155 Aftereffects of the World Cup
“Good goal!”
On the afternoon of June 4th, Zhao Dayu came to Ruhao Tea Restaurant as scheduled to watch the first game of the national football team with the fans. Against Costa Rica, the weakest team in the group, before the game everyone expected a win, a draw, and a win for Costa Rica. At this time, the national football coach Milu also had experience coaching Costa Rica before, so everyone's expectations are not completely impossible.
Just as everyone expected, Sun Taiyang made a breakthrough on the right in just one minute. The opponent could only rely on fouls to stop it, and gave the national football team a free kick from the front of the penalty area. Zhao Dayu and Ru The fans of Haocha Restaurant all shouted excitedly. Then Yang Chen turned around from the left and got another yellow card. In the first 20 minutes of the game, the national football team basically suppressed Costa Rica and was really full of hope of winning.
Although Sachiko, who was sitting between Kang Qirui and Ayao, didn’t understand football, listening to the excited voices of the fans around her, she knew that the national football team had a good chance of winning. She became more and more panicked, "The national football team wins. The "Meibang, full refund" campaign has been launched for two weeks, and the business volume of both directly-operated stores and franchise stores has been explosive. Just when she was panicking, Sun Yang Yang was seriously injured by the opponent and was carried off the field on a stretcher. Zhao Dayu and the fans were very sorry, but Kang Qirui knew that these 20 minutes were Sun Yang Yang's only World Cup experience in his career. .
At the end of the first half, it was 0-0, and the two sides shook hands and made a draw. During the midfield, Zhao Dayu was chatting and drinking with the fans. Sachiko finally found a chance to intercept him and asked anxiously: "Director Zhao, do you think we can win this game?" Zhao Dayu just smiled. Of course he was. I know what answer Sachiko wants to hear, but he really thinks that the national football team has hope. "From the first half, the two sides can be said to be evenly matched, and our side has more opportunities. If we can seize the opportunity in the second half, There should still be hope if we have the chance."
As he spoke, he saw Sachiko's face darken. He paused and said, "But after the Suns went off, our offensive also slowed down a lot, no. It's easy to say, but it's hard to say."
Xingzi sat back in a panic, and Kang Qirui comforted him: "Don't worry, we can't do anything sitting here, we can only watch the performance on the field. "At this time, Kang Qirui was also conflicted. He didn't know whether he wanted to win or lose. He could only live or die, but wealth and honor depended on it.
After the second half of the game started, the national football team got consecutive opportunities, but they failed to grasp them. On the contrary, in the 60th minute, Costa Rica broke the deadlock and took the lead with one goal from Gomez in the penalty area. . Xingzi jumped up suddenly, and all the fans in the audience stared at her. She quickly sat back and hid behind Ayao. Just when everyone was angry, Costa Rica used corner kicks to score another victory, scoring two goals in four minutes and leading 2-0. This score was maintained until the end.
After the game, Zhao Dayu chatted with the fans for a few more minutes and then stood up to leave. Kang Qirui saw him off and then returned to Ruhao Tea Restaurant, found Sachiko, and said, "This is a great match." After the event is over, we basically can't make a loss from this event. We can't play against the remaining two opponents, so we have to take advantage of the fact that there are still games in these few days, and the intensity of the event must continue to increase, so that everyone can work overtime. It opens an hour earlier in the morning and closes an hour later in the evening.”
Xingzi nodded, spoke to Ayao, and went back to the company to arrange work. Kang Qirui also went home. When she came back, she saw Kang Siqi lying on the sofa playing. "Ah!" She couldn't speak yet, but she already recognized the person a little. When she saw her father coming back, she laughed happily. Kang Qirui's heart melted. He hugged his daughter and licked her fat face.
Zhu Wanling saw her daughter screamed by Kang Qirui, so she slapped him on the back, "Oh, you got her."
Kang Qirui smiled and said: " We Siqi are obviously happy, right Siqi? Give mom a smile." Kang Siqi also cooperated and laughed immediately. Zhu Wanling nodded her daughter's head, "Hey, is it really your father's cotton-padded jacket?"
Kang Qirui took her daughter to drink milk powder and put her to sleep before coming to the dining room. While eating, everyone had already eaten when he was coaxing the baby, but he didn't. Zhu Wanling heated up hot food for him, and after Kang Qirui ate it, she asked with concern: "How was the game today?"
Kang Qirui took a bite of the food and said, "Guess ?”
"My child? I guess." Zhu Wanling glared at Kang Qirui, "I know even if you don't tell me, I must have lost. If I had won, Sachiko would have come back long ago." Her logic is that Sachiko's failure to come back means that Business is good, and business is good means the national football team loses. If he had won, the store would have closed long ago and there would be no customers left.
In the next two games, the national football team was the same as in history. After losing to Costa Rica 0-2, they lost to Turkey 0-3 and to Brazil 0-4. No wonder the Chinese people are good at mathematics. Even if they lose a game, they can list the arithmetic difference. With the elimination of the national football team, the clothing company's activities have also ended. After discussing with Kang Qirui, Sachiko launched a series of return activities, but they are basically similar to the World Cup activities of other companies on the market. There are no hot spots. But business is better than usual. The night after the national football team was eliminated, Kang Qirui returned to Kang's house from get off work and saw Guang Zong Yaozu and three people sitting listlessly on the sofa and sighing. He asked, "What's wrong with you? You're sighing. Why aren't you watching the game?"
"Alas, the national football team is out. It doesn't matter whether other teams play or not." Azu said in despair.
Ayao suddenly started to curse, "It's so irritating to say that, that referee is really outrageous, it's obviously a foul."
"That's right, why did you get eliminated in the group stage?" Although the second guy is also a shareholder of a clothing store, and the national football team's complete defeat also brought him a lot of benefits, as a fan, he still couldn't accept it and said without tears.
Kang Qirui shook his head. Now everyone is criticizing this national football team, but this national football team has become the youth of countless people. "Do you want to be like this? It's just a game. If you lose, you lose. Besides, there are so many teams and so many games in the World Cup, which is also very exciting." He comforted everyone.
This year is the peak of the national football team. When everyone thought that the National Football Team would rise from now on, the National Football Team made a joke with everyone. Do you think this is the beginning? In fact, it is already at its peak. The national football teams of later generations are getting worse and worse, losing more and more. Everyone was disappointed when they lost to Syria, which has been at war for years. However, the subsequent loss to Vietnam on Spring Festival and the loss to Hong Kong on New Year's Day allowed fans to witness that the national football team will never have a lower limit.
“Uuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuu”
"Hey, hey, your husband is still alive, why are you crying." The second brother kicked the second sister-in-law when she cried.
"Ugh, lovelorn." The second sister-in-law wiped her eyes with a tissue and pointed at the TV. These days, Kang Qirui and the brothers have been watching the World Cup on TV, and the second sister-in-law didn't even watch TV. It was rare to watch TV today, but the couple she had been chasing broke up. She couldn't follow the plot at all, and she suddenly became sad.
"Crazy, what's there to watch? It pollutes the vision." Ayao was also very unhappy, so he grabbed the second sister-in-law's remote control and changed to a TV show.
"If you don't want to watch this, don't watch it. Then watch this." The second sister-in-law also grabbed it and changed it to another TV show. Anyway, she couldn't keep up with the plot, so she could just change it to another TV show. "Huh, retarded." Azu looked at it for a while and said.
"Are you guys eating gunpowder?" Kang Qirui felt that they had a lot of resentment.
"You guys are really crazy. You have become like this after watching the World Cup." Sachiko is also very helpless. She is happy now and doesn't understand why the brothers are unhappy
