NBA: The man who passed the ball to Yao Ming

"What? How could this be?

Opening a store and cutting the ribbon is a commercial act. I have never heard of any country whose laws even interfere with other people's ribbon-cutting. Your police are too lenient, right?

Moreover, we arranged for Zhang Jinshui to come and cut the ribbon in person. There are many customers queuing outside who probably came here just to see Zhang Jinshui. If the opening ceremony is cancelled, how do you ask us to explain to the customers. "

This time, before Zi Chunlin spoke, Zhao Nian couldn't help shouting like a cannonball.

Zhang Jinshui can probably understand Zhao Nian's mood.

His appearance at the opening ceremony in person was an important gimmick made by Zi Chunlin. In the publicity she spent a lot of money on, she also regarded Zhang Jinshui's appearance as the most important point of attracting fans.

A large part of the fans queuing outside must be aimed at Zhang Jinshui.

If the opening ceremony is canceled and fans cannot see Zhang Jinshui, it means that Tai Chi Zijin has broken its trust.

This affects not only the business on the first day of the opening of the flagship store, but also the reputation of the Tai Chi Zijin brand may be affected.

In that case, Tai Chi Zijin's large publicity expenses in the early stage, the high-priced online auction and yesterday's charity auction and other news brought Taiji Zijin a warm-up effect, but all of them will be in vain.

And the loss of money is only one aspect.

On the other hand, everyone clearly sees the hope that a Huaguo brand will rise in the beautiful country. This is simply too rare for Huaguo in 2005. Zhao Nian really does not want such a hope before the flagship store has opened It will be destroyed immediately.

Moreover, in the final analysis, the Houston police's request not to allow the opening ceremony is indeed too lenient.

Zhang Jinshui couldn't bear it any longer, and went straight down the stairs.

On the second floor, Zhang Jinshui saw Zi Chunlin, Zhao Niannian, Zi Qiuli and the burly Inspector Watson standing together not far from the stairs.

On Zhao Nian's face, there was an unconcealable anxiety.

Zi Chunlin and Zi Qiuli also looked a little ugly.

The bearded inspector was still wearing sunglasses, with a look of reticence.

"Jin Shui." Zi Chunlin first saw Zhang Jinshui and greeted him.

Several other people also looked over.

Seeing the figure of Zhang Jinshui, the cold face of police officer Watson behind the sunglasses suddenly became vivid. He raised his eyebrows, and went directly to greet him, stretched out his hand, and said with a smile: "Zhang Jinshui, so you are so early Here we come. Hello, I'm the second-class police officer of the Houston Police Department, and my name is Watson. Also, the Rockets champion!"

When Zhang Jinshui went downstairs, he was mentally prepared to shake face with the other party and have a good fight. Why didn't they let them hold the opening ceremony.

Unexpectedly, the other party, who sounded difficult to speak, suddenly became enthusiastic after seeing him, making Zhang Jinshui a little bit incompetent.

However, the phrase "Rockets championship" is quite pleasing, Zhang Jinshui immediately laughed and said: "Yes, the Rockets championship! Are you a Rockets fan?"

"Yes! I have been a die-hard Rockets fan for more than 30 years. I have witnessed the glory of the Rockets winning two championships in 95 and 96. This year, I have a strong feeling that we will return to the top "After Officer Watson opened his chatterbox, he didn't intend to close it at all.

But now, Zhang Jinshui has a bottom line in his heart.

In his view, as long as you are a Rockets fan, you are a family. Since you are a family, no matter whether you are the police chief or the police officer in charge, you have to help accommodate.

When Zhao Niannian, Zi Chunlin and others heard the conversation between the two, the expressions on their faces were no longer as tense as before, and they all looked at Zhang Jinshui expectantly.

However, Zhang Jinshui did not directly raise the question of the opening ceremony, but first glanced at the other party and asked, "Whose fan are you?"

Watson immediately laughed "hehehe" and said, "I'm a McGrady fan, but I'm very optimistic about you. Besides, my daughter is a die-hard fan of yours. I gave her a special gift for her birthday last time." Give her your number 86 jersey."

Zhang Jinshui made a condition calmly: "I can give your daughter a jersey signed by me, and I can give you a jersey signed by McGrady.

Of course, if everything goes well with today's opening ribbon cutting, I can even invite you and your daughter to visit the rocket base and take a photo with me and Maddie. What do you think? "

Watson's bearded old face immediately turned bitter, and said: "You are a Rockets player, I am a die-hard Rockets fan, and we are also our own family.

If you have other requirements, even if there are no above conditions, I will definitely try my best to meet them.However, the opening ribbon cutting is really not good.

Think about it carefully, there are thousands of customers queuing up outside right now, and I believe most of them are here for your name.

If you don't show up, my comrades can barely keep order in the queue.

However, if you have to come out to cut the ribbon once there is an opening ceremony at the door, there must be many people who are unwilling to line up and crowd to the door to see you.

At that time, not to mention the fact that the queue may be completely messed up, the scene may be messed up, and there may be some dangerous incidents such as group stampedes, which will be ruined for you, me and the customers outside sexual influence. "

Zhang Jinshui was taken aback for a moment, he never expected that Inspector Watson would give such a reason, which was not within their consideration at all.

But if you think about it carefully, the potential risks are really quite big.

Zhang Jinshui turned his head to look at Zi Chunlin and Zhao Niannian, hesitation appeared on their expressions, it seemed that they also admitted deep down in their hearts that the risks mentioned by Inspector Watson were indeed possible.

"That's the truth." Zhao Nian said worriedly: "But in the early publicity, we have always regarded your appearance at the opening ceremony as an important eye-catching point. If we cancel the opening ceremony, it is tantamount to breaking our promise to come to join us." customers, it will have a negative impact on our entire brand, we still have to try our best to find a way to minimize the impact."

Zhang Jinshui's heart moved, and a bold idea suddenly flashed in his mind.

However, Zhang Jinshui did not express his thoughts directly, but turned his head and looked at Inspector Watson again, and said: "Then we are such a big store, you only let us receive a maximum of 200 people, isn't it too small? Our company has been evaluated by experts in this field, and our flagship store can accommodate up to 700 customers, or even more."

Inspector Watson hesitated for a moment, then gritted his teeth and said, "I can help with this, but, can you get another signed fan of Yao Ming, I will give you 400 people, no, the upper limit of 500 people."

After listening to Zhang Jinshui, the black line on his forehead, didn't he claim to be willing to help without conditions?Why are you still bargaining?

However, Yao Ming and Tracy McGrady's signed jerseys, as well as the visit to the Rockets base, are all a piece of cake for Zhang Jinshui, and Zhang Jinshui didn't bother to argue with the other party, saying: "Okay, it's a deal!

In addition, I also want to ask you to do me a favor and help me maintain the order of the line. I want to walk along the line and say hello to all the customers who lined up, which can be regarded as giving them an explanation for the cancellation of the opening ceremony.

After all, they got up so early to line up, most of them came for me. "

After hearing what Zhang Jinshui said, not to mention Police Officer Watson, even Zi Chunlin refused to agree, she directly denied: "No! Didn't Officer Watson say it just now? If you appeared, those fans would say Maybe they will all crowd around you, causing further chaos at the scene, and even threatening your personal safety."

Officer Watson also nodded, and said, "Yes, I can't bear this responsibility."

Zhang Jinshui said with a smile: "I won't show up at the entrance of the flagship store, let's go back from the end of the queue, isn't that all right?

Think about it, the density at the end of the queue is relatively sparse, the number of customers is small, and it is easier to control.

At that time, we will appear from the tail of the line. When the spectators in line see me and want to rush over, the police officers can tell them not to move, line up properly, and I will walk over to greet them right away, no OK? "

Zi Chunlin, Sheriff Watson and the others were taken aback for a moment. After careful consideration, they suddenly realized that although Zhang Jinshui's plan did not seem to have anything special, it was small and delicate starting from the tail and going back. Thinking, but it seems that it can really maintain the order of the queue.

Zi Chunlin hesitated for a moment, and said: "Well, if you insist, then do it, but I want to stay by your side the whole time."

Zhang Jinshui naturally understands the meaning of Zi Chunlin's words, that is, if there is any confusion at that time, the two of them should bear it together and face it together.

Zhang Jinshui was moved, and couldn't help showing a gentle smile to the other party.

It's a pity that now, in front of everyone, he can't make any overly intimate gestures.

Zhang Jinshui turned his head and saw the hesitation in Officer Watson's expression, he immediately increased his bargaining chip and said, "I think your brothers should have quite a few Rockets fans, right?

How about this, in order to thank the Houston police for helping me maintain the order of the queue today and ensure the safety of the people.

Before the end of the regular season, I will find an opportunity to invite all the police officers who are on duty today to visit our Rockets training base. What do you think? "

This condition can definitely be regarded as a big deal. Zhang Jinshui estimated that he would have to have a good ink with Dawson to have a chance.Officer Watson struggled for a while, finally gritted his teeth, and said, "Alright then, Zhang Jinshui, it's settled.

Give me some time, I'm going out to deploy.

In addition, let's put the ugly words in advance. If the time comes, once our police force finds that the situation shows signs of being uncontrollable, we will immediately terminate the activities. You must cooperate with us unconditionally and without complaint. "

"No problem!" Zhang Jinshui readily agreed.

At the same time, Zhao Nian and Zi Qiuli, who were standing aside with a sigh of relief, and Zi Chunlin, who still had a worried face, blinked triumphantly.

Facts have proved that Zhang Jinshui's face in Houston is not ordinary.

......

The time soon came to 10:30 in the morning, and it was only half an hour before the opening ceremony officially started.

The iron gate of the flagship store is still tightly closed.

Zhang Jinshui, Zi Chunlin, Zhao Niannian, Zi Qiuli and others had already come out of the back door of the flagship store.

Surrounded by more than a dozen security guards hired by Taiji Zijin from the security company, they walked more than half a block from the back street to the end of the queue.

At this time, the tail stretched back more than 100 meters compared to when Zi Qiuli drove past more than an hour ago.

Although the crowd density at the tail is not very high, from a distance, all kinds of people gather together, with their heads up and down, which still gives people a sense of oppression.

Under the advance arrangement of Sergeant Peanut, more than [-] police officers stood on both sides of the tail of the queue in advance, preparing to maintain the order of the queue after Zhang Jinshui appeared.

Zi Chunlin stood tightly next to Zhang Jinshui. They were surrounded by security guards and gradually approached the end of the queue.

There were already quite a few people in the queue who had nothing to do. They noticed the situation here. They stretched their necks and looked curiously at the group of security guards in black suits outside.

"Lean over."

Following Zhang Jinshui's order, the security guards surrounded them and leaned over there. The distance between the two sides gradually narrowed from 30 meters to 20 meters to less than ten meters.

Zi Chunlin's heart gradually tightened up. After a while, when everyone saw Zhang Jinshui, if they insisted on crowding around regardless of the police's obstruction, it would really cause congestion, or even more extreme Condition.

Zi Chunlin didn't care about seeing his parents until tomorrow, took a deep breath, and put his right hand into the palm of Zhang Jinshui's left hand, expressing his determination to advance and retreat with his lover.

When Zhang Jinshui felt the boneless softness of that slender hand, Zhang Jinshui was stunned first, and then almost jumped up happily. Since the two established their relationship, this was the first time that Zi Chunlin was so active, and Still in public.

Zhang Jinshui naturally understood Zi Chunlin's intention to do this suddenly, and he was moved and full of pride.

He held Zi Chunlin's hand tightly, let the two security guards in front of him clear the space, waved at the people at the end of the queue, and shouted loudly: "Brothers, thank you for your hard work! Let me see you. "

The customers in line who had been paying close attention to the situation here immediately became agitated when they saw Zhang Jinshui, and shouted excitedly.

"Look, look! Zhang Jinshui, it's Zhang Jinshui!"

"Damn it, why did Zhang Jinshui appear here!"

"Come on, I have a pen, let Zhang Jinshui sign it for me."
