Chapter 711 Final
Seeing that Jing Jian did not elaborate on the meaning of what method was adopted, Kent and the others stopped asking. And William on the side suddenly said: "Sir, the progress of these branches of Standard in Europe is not very satisfactory. As a result of several market surveys, our teleshopping model is not very well received by consumers. ”
"It's nothing, just keep it at the current scale. Jing Jian doesn't care much about this, the real battlefield in the future is e-commerce on the Internet, and the e-commerce model still has a long period of market cultivation.
"Sir, I have an idea. ”
"Well, you say. ”
"The retail market in Western Europe is mature and saturated. On the contrary, the emerging markets of Eastern Europe are still virgin territory. I would like to open a pilot project in a large city in Eastern Europe, for example, in Warsaw. In Eastern Europe, our goods have made a name for themselves, and the market is very immature, and the cost of distribution is too high. Consumers are also more price-sensitive and may be prone to success. ”
"That's good. "Jing Jian is indispensable," the standard affairs of the European region, you can decide for yourself. Kent, coordinate with William Jr., and give up a North American place to Warsaw first. ”
In fact, the current Jingjian is also in the exploration stage. Since the results are not very good in those developed countries, let's try those emerging markets! Anyway, we are already preparing to conduct experiments in Yangcheng, and more Warsaw can do it.
……
This meeting was not long. After the conversation, Kent, Smith and William Jr. said goodbye and left, while Jing Jian left to watch the World Cup final.
This time, there was nothing to say all the way. I arrived at the stadium smoothly, and I didn't meet anyone invited into the box. Jing Jian and Mai Ting came to the guest seats arranged for them, and waited for the start of the final with the surrounding audience.
This year's World Cup final is quite interesting, the two finalist teams, Germany and Argentina, are the finalists of the last World Cup, almost a replica of the previous one. However, in this World Cup, the German team is full of momentum all the way to the final, and the Argentine team bumps all the way, if it is not for excellent luck, plus Maradona and goalkeeper Goyechea play extraordinarily, maybe they may not even be able to qualify from the group.
Anyway, looking at the previous performance of these two teams, the pre-match prediction was almost one-sided in favor of the German team. Especially Argentina is even worse, many main players or injuries, or red and yellow card bans, it is quite reluctant to put together a main lineup, and even Maradona is swollen feet and can hardly wear shoes, gritting his teeth with injuries, which makes no one optimistic that the Argentine team can win.
Sure enough, at the beginning of the game, Argentina put on a 9-0-1 lineup, which was simply shameless, all the people were on defense, and they were ready to delay until the penalty shootout from the first minute of the game.
Of course, such a game was dull, the ratio of German and Argentine shots was 24:1, and the only shot on goal for Argentina was a set-piece from the front, shooting an anti-aircraft gun, and the only result was to scare a few birdies in Rome. During the game, the Argentine team was sent off with red cards, and finally the Argentine penalty area was awarded a controversial penalty for a foul on Worrall. Mateus said his boot was torn and gave up a free throw, and the replacement Bremer scored a free throw......
There was a little farce after the game, in which Maradona wept and refused to shake hands with FIFA President Havelange, and then made a statement that "the game is controlled by the mafia".
In all fairness, the collision in the penalty area did exist, and Worrall was not a fake, but the penalty was a penalty that could be awarded or not. Of course, considering that the penalties for fouls in the penalty area were lenient back then, and this is the World Cup final, the probability of not awarding should be as high as seven or eighty percent.
Anyway, in the end, the referee made a penalty, although it is up for debate, but the referee is the biggest on the football field. Besides, Argentina's foul on German player Bouhwald in the penalty area was completely enough to award a penalty, but didn't the referee also give a penalty? Therefore, the Argentine team's loss in this game was still due to its strength, and it was not black, and the referee was not a black whistle.
……
After watching the game happily, Jing Jian took Mai Ting out of the court. Unexpectedly, he was immediately surrounded by several reporters, and he didn't know that during the broadcast of the game, he and Mai Ting got a few more close-ups.
"Mr. Bramble, what do you think of this final?"
"Congratulations to Germany for winning the championship and of course sorry for Argentina, who also performed very well. But I would like to leave my biggest thanks to Italy, for a memorable World Cup. ”
"Do you think the penalty was a miscalculation?"
"Hehe, I didn't see it clearly at the time. But judging by the reaction of the Argentine players, it should be considered controversial, right?"
"Understood, you're saying that Argentina was misjudged, right?" reporters like to ask questions that have no lower limit.
"No, no, I mean controversial. Jing Jian hurriedly smiled and clarified.
"So do you think this game is exciting, and does Argentina's blind defense lead to a decrease in spectacle?"
"Hehe, in fact, there are many ways to appreciate football games. The heart-wrenching offense is really exciting, but the gnashing of teeth in the face of adversity is also admirable. Also, for those of us who are neutral fans, the favourite was the final today, with controversial decisions, red cards, penalties, and if there was still a naked run plus a fight, it would have been a 'perfect' game. ”
Jing Jian's words caused a burst of laughter, which made those reporters feel that the trip was worthwhile.
The next night, Jing Jian and Mai Ting came to the Quirinalale Palace in dresses to attend the last event of the trip - the Italian president's reception dinner for FIFA guests.
In Italy, like many Western parliamentary democracies, the prime minister is in fact in power, and the president is a symbolic and honorary position. However, in any case, the president is the leader of the country, so he will be the guest of honor today.
When Jing Jian arrived, there were already a lot of people here. However, he knew almost no one in European politics or football, so he could only wait for the dinner to begin.
On the contrary, Mai Ting was more popular, and was quickly pulled into the crowd by several admirers. Jing Jian was bored in the corner when he heard someone greet him in English: "Oriental, Japanese?"
Jing Jian looked back and saw that it was a young man from southern Europe with curly hair, he was about thirty, not tall, and had a warm smile on his face. At this time, many of FIFA's big sponsors were Japanese companies, and even the club's continental tournament was called the "Toyota Cup", so it is no wonder that some people would admit their mistake.
Jing Jian smiled back: "No, Chinese!"
