Super Zoo

Director Cheng was introduced to Su Ming by Wang Jianshe at an entrepreneur symposium. The Yangchuan Toy Factory was established in the early days of the founding of the People's Republic of China. It is a long-established state-owned enterprise. Before the 1980s, it was once one of the best units in Yangchuan City. Later, after the reform and opening up, like most state-owned enterprises, the Yangchuan Toy Factory failed due to various reasons. , gradually began to go downhill.

The current Yangchuan City Toy Factory is incomparable to its heyday. Most of the factory buildings and equipment have been sold, and the number of employees is less than one-tenth of the previous number. It can barely survive with subsidies from the city.

Wang Jianshe focuses on the economy, and unprofitable state-owned enterprises that hold him back are the biggest headache for him. The purpose of introducing him to Su Ming is to give Su Ming a chance to help him. In fact, not only was he introduced to Su Ming, Wang Jianshe was like a matchmaker, often introducing unprofitable state-owned enterprises in the city everywhere.

Although Yangchuan City Toy Factory is not as good as before, it is a state-owned unit after all, and its product safety is more guaranteed than private companies. Nowadays, those who produce toy products are trying every means to reduce costs and use toxic and substandard materials. The toy factory's poor performance is largely due to its insistence on using qualified materials. The cost is several times more expensive than other companies, and of course it cannot make money.

After busying for half the night, I finally arranged the follow-up work.

Early the next morning, Taoyuan Youqu's Weibo finally released the upcoming schedule, and it was simultaneously transferred to the Yangchuan Forum.

Yangchuan Zoo will hold an animal competition every year from June to August during the summer vacation.

This year's first martial arts tournament has a total of sixteen "batches" of contestants. It adopts a single round-robin and elimination system. There are a total of fifteen matches, held every Saturday and Sunday.

Next is the matchup table:

Giant snapping turtle VS scale-armored python, turtle-snake battle...

Big-mouthed giant salamander VS alligator, these two old enemies finally have a chance to settle their scores;

Big Bad Wolf VS Wolf Dog Brothers, this is a 1 vs 2 battle, of course it is not fair, but this is not a regular Olympic game, no one cares about this.

Macaw (sister) VS Macaw (sister), the competition is mainly about swearing, and points will be deducted for swearing;

White-browed gibbons VS macaques. Due to the large number of contestants on both sides, this battle is mainly based on long-range attacks. The zoo provides each side with a hundred kilograms of rotten peaches, rotten bananas, rotten apples...

Black-backed gorilla VS wild boar second brother! In the battle of the century between the eldest brother and the second brother, the second brother, who had been hacked for countless years, finally had a chance to make a comeback.

A herd of alpacas VS two racehorses, spitting during the competition;

Group of crocodile gar VS three-legged giant turtle...

In addition to the regular competition, there is also a closing battle, a cat-dog battle! A group of cats hang out in the zoo all day long, and a group of dogs hang out in the back mountains all day long.

After seeing this battle table, a ‘forecasting trend’ quickly started in forums and Weibo.

"Alligator and giant salamander fighting? There is no suspense at all. I guess the alligator will win!"

"That's not necessarily true. Don't forget that both parties are wearing 'protective gear' and cannot use minions. The alligator's advantage cannot be used at all!"

"I bet 50 cents that the giant salamander can come back!"

"Then who do you think will win, the crocodile gar or the old turtle? I can't imagine how they will fight. I'm really looking forward to it..."

"There are also wolfdogs and big bad wolves. I heard that the two wolfdogs in the zoo are both purebred German blackbacks. If two against one, I bet on the wolfdog to win!"

"You can't tell the inside story at a glance. Don't you know that those two wolf dogs are usually the little brothers of the big bad wolf? They lost a lot of momentum first."

"So what, there are no brothers in the arena!"

"Stop talking about that useless thing, open the market, open the market!"

Gambling is of course illegal, and it is unknown whether there is gambling at the zoo offline.

But the Yangchuan City Forum blatantly opened a large casino to place bets on the results of the martial arts tournament.

Forum gold coins are used for betting. There is one gold coin for each reply in the forum, five gold coins for each post, and more gold coins for refined and popular posts. There are usually various activities to obtain gold coins, so there are many netizens in the forum. There are some 'savings' to some extent.

The minimum bet is five gold coins and the maximum bet is one thousand gold coins.

"He really knows how to play." Su Ming smiled when he saw the betting module on the forum, and also invested several hundred gold coins. But he didn't know who would win, so he was just betting on luck.

The Yangchuan City Forum even calculated the odds.

The most equal is the scolding battle between the parrot sisters. The odds between the two sides are 1:1.04. The parrot sister has a slightly better chance of winning. Maybe netizens think that the younger sister is younger and has not as much experience in scolding as her elder sister. The people who scolded people in the market are all Older sisters and ladies are the most powerful...

Unexpectedly, the one with the biggest difference in odds is not the alligator and the giant salamander, but the gorilla and the second senior brother! A handicap of 1:5.2 was opened, which means that the gorilla is generally believed to be more powerful.

There is a reason for this. Orangutans and monkeys are nothing, but if there is a 'pig' as a foil, then the orangutan is immediately given a sacred cultural connotation.

"Come on, Great Sage! The Great Sage will win!"

This is so bad that Su Ming doesn't even want to prepare a golden cudgel for the gorilla. The second senior brother has suffered so much for you. Who said you are a pig? Anyway, you have rough skin and thick flesh, so you should be beaten a few times with a stick. It doesn't matter...

…

"Hello, dear audience friends, I am Li Jingjing, the host of Yangchuan TV Station. I am now at Yangchuan Zoo, hosting the Yangchuan Zoo Martial Arts Competition for you. Since the previous two-bear battle and the final cat-dog battle were both performances and not included in the regular competition schedule, the upcoming one is the first official competition of this conference..."

It is no exaggeration to say that the first game kicked off in the spotlight. Yangchuan TV Station certainly would not miss this great opportunity for local news and sent reporters to do a live broadcast.

Su Ming is now equivalent to the half-son-in-law of Yangchuan TV Station. A large number of TV station staff and reporters arrived several hours before the live broadcast and chatted around Su Ming. Nangong is now the pillar of the TV station, hosting political and military news. The entertainment news of the zoo was handed over to the female host named Li Jingjing who was in the same group as Nangong. Since she and Nangong were in the same group before, she had met Su Ming several times and was considered an acquaintance.

"There is still more than an hour before the competition begins. Director Su, can you tell us about the original intention of holding this "Martial Arts Competition"? " Li Jingjing smiled and said, "Although it has attracted a lot of attention, a small number of viewers have raised doubts. Will the martial arts competition cause harm to animals?"
