In addition to humidity, the maritime climate brings problems and a long rainy season, which is mainly in winter, which is probably one of the reasons why French red wines are famous all over the world, just avoiding the grape growing season. But when the grapes are comfortable, people suffer, and in this damp and cold rainy season, the romantic Gallic rooster prefers to stay in his apartment, burning fine pine wood in the fireplace, drinking red wine from Bordeaux, and talking to the phone.

But Jacqueline didn't have to waste the phone bill, because her handsome guy Jeff came over early in the morning, stood in front of Zhou Yi and Zhou Jingjing at this moment, and carefully handed in her plan - it was a franchise plan.

Jeff is a very business-minded person, and bold enough or thick-skinned enough, his plan is to become the first franchisee of 'Linshui Champs' to start in Petite Paris, unlike other franchisees, he gave up 49% of the shares, and promised to give the 49% of the shares to Zhou Jingjing after three years of operation, as long as he has the franchise of the Petite Paris area for up to three years and the franchise general agent status of the Petite Paris area. In addition, he had only 30,000 francs of funds, and he hoped that the Champs would provide him with the necessary funds to start.

Zhou Yi was a little ridiculous, it's really a shame that this kid can figure it out, is this using Linshui Champs as a venture capital?

However, after carefully studying his plan, Cheng Dong and Zhou Jingjing were very interested in Jeff's plan. With the support of Zhou Yi and Henry, Linshui Champs is not short of money, what is lacking is precisely a high-level worker who knows how to advance and retreat and is willing to work hard, and it is impossible for Linshui Champs to give up the interests of Greater Paris and Little Paris in the end.

It seems that Jeff has taken advantage. But the chain business model must be authorized at all levels, the main energy of Linshui Champs is to do the brand rather than the actual business, this right always has to be put, in this case, it is better to give Jeff, after all, he is willing to give up 49% of the shares in three years, and all the benefits will go to Linshui Champs after three years. No franchisee can make such a promise, and Linshui Champs only has to pay to support a part of his start-up capital.

Judging from this plan, it is actually the waterfront Champs that gets the most benefits, but Jack can also get enough benefits. For a poor ** silk who makes a living by setting up convenience stalls, these three years are enough time for him to dig a gold mine, and any successful person can always be good at using all his connections. And to the extreme, Jacqueline is his close-to-the-water platform, of course, this does not hinder their love, but will make their love more solid.

However, Cheng Dong and Zhou Jingjing still have to listen to Zhou Yi's opinions, today's Linshui Champs cannot be sustained without Zhou Yi's support, and Zhou Jingjing has long regarded Zhou Yi as the largest shareholder and co-helmsman of Linshui Champs.

"Be nice to Jacqueline in the future. ”

Jeff is even two years younger than Zhou Yi, and as one of the bosses, Zhou Yi definitely has a reason to call him that. After listening to Cheng Dong and Zhou Jingjing's analysis, Zhou Yi couldn't help but be amazed by this kid's cheekiness and courage. Is it true that every business genius is good at 'white wolf with empty gloves'? For example, Alibaba's literary and artistic helmsman, and many legends in the IT industry, they seem to do this.

But this kid is not bad, for Jacqueline's sake, Zhou Yi is willing to support him. May all lovers in the world become dependents, and it feels very good to dominate people's fate.

The boom in opening was expected, although it was cold and rainy today, even the most beautiful French girls had to put on thick stockings, and could no longer wear a pair of thin and leaky stockings to wander around the street, but still poured in hundreds of gourmets at the first time. Packed the waterfront champs.

Jacqueline didn't even bother to be sweet with her boyfriend who had just signed a contract, so she threw herself into the big production of egg fried rice, and the two new chefs and service staff were also busy, and soon found their place.

Seeing that everything was on the right track, Zhou Yi and Cheng Dong left. Cheng Dong carried a bucket of egg fried rice made by Zhou Yi to fool Amirui and her fat director, and after finishing the franchise advertisement, he had to find a lawyer to deal with trademarks and patents, and he was busy. Zhou Yi went directly to Chinatown, and in the past two days, he had to find time to practice lion dance every day, which was his father's death task. Zhou Maotong himself is an old arm and an old leg, so he handed over the arduous task of picking green and winning the lion king to Zhou Yi, his son is the final winner of his five billion essence, he won at the starting line back then, and now of course he has to inherit his father's will.

Zhou Yi also attaches great importance to tonight's lion dance competition, when he watched Xiangjiang movies as a teenager, he was very fascinated by the lion king Master Huang and the ghost feet seven, which can be regarded as a dream of his own. In addition, the lion fighting in various restaurants in Chinatown has become a tradition, once the green becomes the lion king, all kinds of professional media will make up a lot of reports, this kind of professional media reports in the industry is even better than Zhou Yi's fireworks in the sky, the program publicity effect of the Paris Food Channel is better, will attract some professional gourmets, gourmets, these people are turned into die-hard loyalists of the Champs, the word-of-mouth publicity effect is stronger than anything else.

Walking into the Essence Martial Arts Hall, the disciples bowed down one after another, calling Uncle Zhou in awe. Uncle Zhou smiled indifferently, and walked directly into the martial arts arena with the appearance of a senior master. It's not mysterious and arrogant, he defeated the two masters that day, and many disciples watched it, and now he has become a senior uncle again, if he behaves a little closer to the people, then he must not be entangled to death?

There are two small and one large three lion heads on the martial arts field, all of which are hideous and angry, with long colored tails, and the two small lion heads are connected with the lion tails are red bases, but the big one is golden, shining in the sun, eye-catching.

"Why is it so big!"

When he came to practice lions two days ago, Zhou Yi hadn't seen this golden lion head, this thing was the size of a large water tank, several times larger than a real lion's head, and I didn't know what material it was, if it was wood, if it was made of metal, I was afraid that it would weigh thousands of catties?

"Hee-hee, Uncle Zhou is here! Uncle Zhou is here. ”

Zhou Yizheng was dumbfounded, a small head poked out of the lion's mouth, his skin was white and tender, and there were two small wine vortices with a smile, it was Huang Xiaowan.

Huang Xiaowan saw that Zhou Yi liked something, and quickly got out of the lion's tail, and ran to Zhou Yi to sprinkle coquettishly: "Xiaowan wants to be hugged by uncle." ”

"Okay. Uncle hugged Xiaowan. Zhou Yihaha picked her up with a smile, feeling that this girl's complexion was much better, and even the ones on the sideburns had new black hair. In just two or three days, the situation has changed so much, it seems that her three yin and yang points have been completely penetrated, and the yin and yang qi in her body have also begun to operate in balance.

"Xiaowan. Don't pester Uncle Zhou, Uncle Zhou still has to practice lions. ”

Huang Can came over laughing, took Xiaowan from Zhou Yi's hand, handed it to the nanny who came with him, and coaxed her to take medicine and rest.

"Brother, it's a pity that you and I have brothers, and you are much older than Xiaowan, otherwise hehehehe"

Huang Can laughed a few times and looked at Zhou Yi very ambiguously: "Brother, you just happened to be here today." How about a look at the golden lion head I just made?"

"The golden lion head, it can't be made of pure copper, it's too heavy. ”

Zhou Yi was slightly surprised, with the size of this lion's head, if it was pure copper, it would cost two or three thousand catties. It's that if he wants to dance, he is afraid and laborious, and he has to use his internal qi to do it, and this lion dance is not a war, what do you want such a heavy lion head to do?

"Of course, it won't be pure copper, it's made of rosewood and covered with a three-centimeter-thick copper skin. However, it also weighs more than 300 pounds, and I am afraid that it will take a powerful master like my brother to dance, so I can only make a lion's tail for you. ”

"I'll be the lion's head, big brother"

Zhou Yi was stunned, in fact, the most tiring thing about the lion dance is that the lion tail is not the lion head. The eyes of the lion's tail are blocked, the observation is congenitally insufficient, and the lion head has to be borrowed when necessary, and the kung fu on the waist and legs is almost not to mention picking green, I'm afraid I can't go up to the green shed.

Huang Can wants to be a lion's tail, that is, he wants to fulfill himself, isn't this the style of X party members?

"Brother, don't be moved, I'm also here to win the green. When it comes to picking green tonight, hundreds of lions have to compete for the green shed, which is as dangerous as a contest, whose lion head is heavy enough to squeeze out of the competition, so I got this bronze lion head. But when it comes to strength, I can't compare to you, so it's up to you to open the way, and then my brother just rushes, and my brother's waist and legs are still good, and I will never hold you back. ”

"Okay, Brother Huang, let's practice again today?"

Zhou Yi is really under pressure, the lion dance is about cooperation, but he is not alone on the cliff to play light skills, so his learning attitude is very correct.

"Okay, then let's familiarize ourselves with the footwork again, my Huang family's thirty-six lion dance steps, you have to write them down, in addition, there are also lion heads and lion tails to communicate with the action gestures, I will show you again"

***

The Spring Festival sends the New Year beast, the lion head dance on the third day of the new year, and the lanterns during the Lantern Festival. According to the legend of the elderly, the year beast goes to the beast, this year is not stable, the lion dance plays a role in deterring these fierce beasts, the lion dance is the third day of the lion, the wind and rain will be smooth, everyone can rest assured that the lanterns will be made.

Many old traditions in China have been gradually discarded, but in Chinatowns around the world, Chinese people carefully collect these traditional customs, because in their eyes, this is the epitome of their hometown, a little bit of their own thoughts.

On the third day of the Lunar New Year, hundreds of lions came out together, and the managers of the Chinatown Restaurant Association set up a colorful shed early. After announcing the start of the game, I listened to the noise of gongs and drums, firecrackers, and under the green shed that was more than five meters high, the lion shadow was longing, and there was really some momentum of a hundred beasts.

"There are so many lions, I can't find the one that Master Huang and Xiao Yiwu are about"

In the spectator seat, the old man Zhou Maotong stood up suddenly, holding a military telescope and looking closely, I wipe, is that lion me?
