We are all reborn, who wants to be the richest man?
Chapter 626: World Cup, Here I Come
Hong Kong Island is in chaos, and the crowded crowd in the airport seems like it's about to start a riot at any time.
On Lantau Island, the entire Airport Road was in a paralyzed state. A large number of private cars were stuck on the road, honking their horns arrogantly. Some black and white people were drinking alcohol recklessly on the road, releasing their charm.
"what's the situation?"
After returning to Hong Kong Island, Luo Nianzhong was told that he needed to board a helicopter to go home after getting off the plane.
"The fans rioted. It was so crazy, so crazy it was scary."
Hearing that Luo Laosi, who came to pick him up at the airport, could not say more than three sentences, Luo Nianzhong looked at Mu Xiaowan, who was stationed in Hong Kong Island and came to pick him up at the airport.
"Here is this morning's newspaper, you will understand everything if you read it.
We'd better leave here first, otherwise no one can guarantee what will happen later."
With doubts, Luo Nianzhong took the documents and newspapers handed over by Mu Xiaowan, hugged Luo Laosi and boarded the helicopter that was parked not far away.
After getting on the helicopter and putting on his equipment, Luo Nianzhong opened the newspaper and started reading. Soon, the corners of his mouth curled up slightly.
"Let it be chaotic. The more chaotic the better. If possible, I hope there will be such chaos every day."
In the penultimate round of the second stage of the 1994 World Cup Asian qualifiers, the Hong Kong men's football team defeated the island nation team with a score of 3:1.
With one game less, the Hong Kong Island men's football team is two points ahead of the second-placed Great Camel Chinese Football Team with three wins, one draw and seven points.
With one round left, the Hong Kong men's football team has already qualified and advanced to the finals of the World Cup in the United States next year.
You read that right, three wins and one draw equals seven points, 2 points for a win and point for a draw.
The familiar system of accumulating three points for each win was changed by FIFA after 1994 to encourage offense.
In addition to the reform of the points system, the overtime golden ball system, also known as the sudden death method, was also introduced.
The game ends immediately when the two teams that score first in overtime score a goal, which is very exciting for the fans.
"It turns out that the Hong Kong Island men's football team is returning to Hong Kong today. These fans are here to pick them up at the airport. It's crazy enough."
There are still three days left before the last round of the Asian qualifiers, but the head coach of the Hong Kong Island men's football team led the team directly back to Hong Kong and said that no auxiliary players would be sent to participate in the last round.
The chartered flight of the Hong Kong men's football team is due to arrive at the Hong Kong International Airport at 4pm. In less than half an hour, one can imagine how even more crazy things will be.
"You don't know, this morning when I went to inspect the store downstairs, I thought it was robbed by rioters."
"What's going on?" Luo Nianzhong found it quite interesting.
It turned out that Luo Laosi had nothing to do today, so he thought of making a secret visit to the clothing store under the Si Yahui Group to check out the service quality.
Everything was fine at first. Stores like Baleno, Victoria's Secret, Jeanswest, etc. had no problems, but when I got to the Fila counter, I saw a mess.
Not to mention all kinds of clothing, not even any sports equipment was left, and even the clothes and equipment on the models were stripped clean.
If it weren't for the logos at the door and on the wall, you would definitely not know what brand of clothes this store sells.
"what's the situation?"
The clerk in this store obviously didn't know Luo Laosi, but the manager who happened to be walking out of the lounge saw her and hurried over.
"Manager Luo, how come you were alarmed?"
"What's going on? And what's your look? Wearing a suit with your bare chest, are you acting as a gangster?"
The store manager explained with a wry smile, "You don't know, as soon as we opened the door today, a group of people rushed in, taking whatever they had without saying a word. When I came out, they stripped all my clothes off."
As he spoke, the store manager tugged at his tattered suit to express his helplessness, which seemed quite funny.
"Have you called the police?"
"Uh," the manager was speechless for a moment, "I'm afraid we really can't call the police."
"Why?" We can't call the police for robbery. This is the first time Luo Laosi has heard such a perverse reason.
"These people gave money, and some gave too much. They just took the things, threw the money down and ran away."
This confused Luo Laosi again. What was this? It was really unheard of.
"Where are the other store clerks? Why are there only two of them?"
"Don't mention it. Everyone else has hidden in the lounge. Our store is basically staffed by female employees. The key point is that these people are too crazy. I was afraid that I would take off their clothes, so I asked all the female employees to hide in the lounge."
"You did the right thing," praised the store manager. Luo Laosi walked in and said, "Let's go and check out those female employees."
After comforting the employees and promising to give them a bonus, Luo Laosi returned to the group.
It was not until I arrived at the group that I found out that none of the 14 Fila stores in Hong Kong were spared today and all of them were looted in a different way.
"What the hell is going on?"
Luo Laosi didn’t understand, but as the CEO of Si Yahui Group, he knew what was happening.
"Does Mr. Guan watch football?"
"Look, isn't it just a group of people chasing a ball? Sometimes I will watch them too."
Well, there's nothing wrong with what you said about watching football.
"Mr. Guan, do you know that the Hong Kong men's football team will make it to the World Cup next year? As the jersey sponsor of the Hong Kong men's football team, Fila is naturally popular among fans now.
It's like an effect: when everyone is paying attention to or doing something, many people who don't usually understand it will participate.
It’s as if all the fans buy Fila products to show their support for the Hong Kong men’s football team, which leads to a herd effect and results in the current robbery-like phenomenon.”
"World Cup? Is it that simple? I remember participating in the Olympics wasn't like this?"
After hearing the same question, CEO Si Yahui was speechless, while Luo Nianzhong laughed out loud.
In Luo Laosi's opinion, the Olympics is the top event, and there is nothing wrong with thinking this way.
"Didn't you go to the 86 World Cup?"
"Have you been there? Mexico is fun and the food is good too."
Well, Luo Nianzhong almost forgot that the woman in front of him was a ruthless person who could fall asleep during a game on the court.
Once, the two generals Heng and Ha took Luo Anran to watch a game at the home stadium of Oxford United in the Premier League, and the camera captured him taking a nap on the sofa in the VIP box.
In the words of the on-site commentator, the opposing team's purely defensive style of play made the game dull.
In fact, it was not the case. It was just that Luo Laosi stayed up too late the day before, and he had no interest in football at all.
It's not just football. The biggest difference between Luo Laosi and Luo Laowu is in sports.
Luo Laosi is not interested in any sports, of course this does not include competing against Luo Nianzhong, while Luo Laowu likes too many sports and is willing to take a look at any sports he has never played.
When I got home and entered the living room, I found the floor covered with Hong Kong men's football jerseys. Luo Laowu and Luo Anran were still discussing yesterday's game.
"Don't tell me you guys robbed our store today too."
"Huh?" The two didn't understand what Luo Laosi meant, and only after she explained did they suddenly realize.
"Aren't you surprised, shocked, and incredulous?"
Luo Laosi was confused by the two people's indifferent reactions.
"That's nothing. I heard that the entertainment industry is now planning to set up a Hong Kong Island men's football support group, and they will go to the World Cup to cheer for them.
It seems like a lot of celebrities have signed up, and I estimate that half of Hong Kong’s entertainment industry will be involved by then.”
"It's crazy."
Until now, Luo Laosi still hasn’t figured out why the Olympics were not like this, but now there is a collective climax during the World Cup.
