Chapter 129: Planning
Seeing Lu Yichen's aggrieved appearance of squatting in the corner of the wall to draw circles, Vivian felt angry and funny. There's no way, who let himself find a little milk dog boyfriend, so he can only slowly take it with his own training......
Vivian opened her laptop, pushed her glasses, stared straight at the screen, and said faintly, "What I just said will take effect immediately." ”
I saw Lu Yichen swooping up to her and looking at her flatteringly, like a little teddy wagging his tail for pleasure. What Vivian said was about the happiness of the rest of his life (please adjust the nasal voice before and after), and he had to take it seriously.
"As far as I know, you're going to have an ice hockey game to draw attention to the homeless cats and puppies and find them adoptive families, right?"
Lu Yichen nodded obediently.
"But you don't know how to sift through the crowd right now to effectively distinguish between those who are just interested in hockey and potential adoptive families who are interested in both hockey and love critters, right?"
Lu Yichen continued to be well-behaved and nodded.
After confirming that the basic information was correct, Vivian clicked the start button and gave a presentation of Prezi.
Lu Yichen really didn't know how she collected so much information in such a short period of time and designed a complete set of plans...... It doesn't feel like they're on the same planet......
Vivian is not only full of pictures and texts, but also has all the reference activity videos, Lu Yichen saw the black lines all over his head, and instantly felt that their children were still weak in front of Vivian, the royal sister.
This is a service dog charity fundraiser made by the state of Wisconsin in conjunction with CCI (Canine Companions for Independence) the year before last. They invited the University of Wisconsin's Badgers hockey team to compete in an ice hockey game with trained working dogs, which was very creative and promoted, and finally successfully raised more than $2.4 million in donations to train more dogs, so that they can serve more families, especially guide dogs that are urgently needed by blind families. Vivian clicked the mouse as she explained to Lu Yichen.
"I think this is similar to your project this time, although you are not trying to raise donations, but the words dog hockey tournament will definitely attract people who like small animals, even those who are not interested in ice hockey will participate in small animals alone. At the same time, you can warm up in advance and promote it on some mainstream social media, for example, you can hold a costume (dress-up) contest where dogs wear ice hockey suits, and many people will definitely post pictures on their own media, which is equivalent to a wave of publicity for free. As for the setup and details of this competition, you can discuss it with your team members, and also combine your activity budget, but I don't think there should be a problem with this general direction. Here's a video of the event I found on their website, you can take a look at it and use it for reference. ”
Vivian finished showing the last frame, took off her glasses and rubbed her temples, waiting for Lu Yichen's response. She has limited information, so she can only think of this step at the moment, after all, how to implement this project depends on the budget and the professionalism of the team members.
Lu Yichen didn't know what he was thinking, his eyes looked directly at Vivian, which made Vivian very uncomfortable......
"What are you thinking?" Vivian patted him on the head, feeling his smirk make people panic.
"I'm thinking that our future children will be handsome and smart." After saying that, he hugged Vivian, "Okay, the project has also progressed, and I don't have to feel sorry for my teammates, I suddenly feel that my strength has fully recovered." Now that we're done with business, let's do something that couples should do. ”
Because of the dedication of the little wolf dog, when he went out for dinner, Vivian had to wear a high-necked Polo, Lu Yichen was as proud as a no-brainer, and he was proud of both career and love, which was really a happy life.
After asking Vivian's consent, Lu Yichen asked Gege and Xiao Xiao to have dinner together, and by the way, he could share the plan that Vivian came up with.
So they made an appointment at the Chinese restaurant where they met on the first day back in Boston, and in order to be lively, Lu Yichen simply called Fei'er and Jian Yang.
Because it was Lu Yichen's invitation, he and Vivian were the first to arrive, and because it was still early, they booked a small box and waited for the arrival of other friends.
Lu Yichen was suddenly curious and asked, "Are you used to eating Chinese food?" ”
In foreign countries, except for people who really know the industry, the Chinese restaurants that Americans generally go to are "American" Chinese restaurants, and the reason for the quotation marks is because many of the dishes in them are unheard of by Chinese.
If you've ever eaten some "American Chinese food" in the U.S., you might wonder "Did I eat fake Chinese food?"
For example, the famous General Tso's chicken is sweet and spicy, and the chicken is covered with a layer of fried batter and toppings, which looks like deep-fried gnocchi. This dish can be said to be an indispensable dish in Chinese restaurants, whether it is a Cantonese restaurant, a Huaiyang restaurant, a Beijing restaurant, a Sichuan restaurant, or a Hunan restaurant, there must be this dish on the menu. And this dish is probably unknown in China, but in the United States, Zuo Zong's chicken is more well-known than Peking duck.
Another example is the Egg foo young, which is truly an American invention and may be difficult for real Chinese stomachs to swallow. It tastes like a salty pancake, fried with vegetables, paste, shrimp, etc., and topped with gravy. Once the juice is poured in, the dish is shapeless and becomes a stick noodle porridge with corn paste.
There is also Mooshu pork, which is a typical northern dish, and the ingredients are generally pork, black fungus, eggs, cucumbers, and golden needles, which are refreshing and delicious. But Americans don't eat black fungus, so the American mushu meat is completely different from what we are familiar with, often adding bean sprouts and a lot of sweet juice, and eating it with pancakes, which may be a strange combination that Chinese have never tried in their lives.
Many times when I meet some people who grew up in the United States and take them to a real Chinese restaurant for the first time, they will be very uncomfortable, because they are not used to the "American Chinese food" in their cognition.
So Lu Yichen's worries are not unreasonable, Vivian may have really only eaten American Chinese food......
Vivian nodded, she wasn't taboo or picky, so there should be no problem. And Chinese food is very close to Japanese food, with rice and noodles as the staple food, and Vivian is quite looking forward to this Chinese restaurant that Lu Yichen praised as Boston's highest (No. 1) restaurant.
Not long after they sat down, Xiao Xiao came first, she happened to be shopping nearby, and came over after strolling. After a friendly hello to Vivian, he sat down and waited silently for the others.
After a while, Gege and Lin Yi came, and the two of them held hands, so intimate. This is the second time Vivian has seen Gege, and the last time they met, they misunderstood that she was dating Lu Yichen, and now when she sees her looking at Lin Yi's eyes, she knows that she is purely misunderstood. A girl in love, her eyes can't deceive people at all, Gege looked at Lin Yi's eyes and saw that she was a girl in love, and there was no other possibility.
After they greeted each other in a friendly manner, Gege looked at Vivian with some curiosity. The last time I saw her, I thought her face was very bad, she couldn't help but be weak, and she was pushed down and injured by Lu Yichen; Although it looks soft and weak this time, I always feel that my complexion is much better, and it is the power of love.
Look at Lu Yichen again, he is even more proud, but he is really careful with Vivian, while patiently explaining the dishes to her with the menu, he helped her tear open the chopsticks and wash the dishes with boiling water, the two lowered their heads and muttered something, and they didn't know what Lu Yichen said, Vivian pushed him away with a shy, his face was like a ripe tomato.
Gege hurriedly looked away, don't look at indecent things, don't listen to indecent people, that hateful Lu Yichen let her listen to the live version so much last time......
This is Jian Yang and Fei'er also walked in, today's Fei'er is extremely sexy, crop top camisole + miniskirt, outlining the perfect curve, she wears a pair of oversized sunglasses, and her aura from afar looks like a big star. Jian Yang stood behind her, without saying a word, the two stood together like the scene of the press conference, and Gege felt that they were really too compatible.
Now that everyone has arrived, they started a round of ordering, and then waited for the waiter to serve the food, Lu Yichen shared Vivian's plan with his friends.
