Chapter 155: Auction of Naming Rights
This time it was upside down. Zhou Yu rushed ahead in a hurry, and the lizard girl and Wei Ya had to take three steps and two steps to keep up with him. They were amazed to find that they didn't know what force was attracting in front of them, making people with serious ankle injuries walk like flying. If so, the power must be very strong.
The remnants of the rebels were still languishing and half-dead in the eighth and ninth carriages, not caring at all about their departure and turning back. When passing by the person he had treated, Zhou Yu specially squatted down and called his pulse, although he was still asleep, his pulse was long and powerful, and it seemed that he couldn't die.
The corpses all over the ground and the dried purple, the blood stains that stuck to it were still the theme of the seventh carriage, but the difference was that when he passed through this time, he smelled a stronger smell of blood in the air, which froze in the entire carriage, making people's hearts beat. Zhou Yu's hand pressed against the doorknob and took a deep breath. Whew, ready, debut!
As expected, a young man dressed in rags and even more blood stains on his hands and face than just now appeared in the official palace and the rich area. There are simply not too many disdainful glances, too many to be more. But Zhou Yu doesn't care, no matter what kind of gaze it is, as long as it focuses on him. I'm not afraid that you won't buy it, I'm afraid that you won't watch it, as long as you see it, I guarantee that you will be tempted. The Metropolitan Governor hasn't done sales, hasn't he been marketed yet?
Cough, cough, he pretended to cough twice to attract the attention of the audience. A glance showed that there were about seventy or eighty people in the carriage. The rich area is really different, even the per capita floor area is richer than other carriages. The Metropolitan Governor wondered how they could protect their exercise of their human rights, and when it came to fighting and killing them, could they fight the fish clan and snake clan who got off the car, or could they fight the rebel army behind?
There can only be one reason, and there is a force that shelters them. But that's not the point right now, it's about how to trap them. When I enter my house, it's my money!
"Ah, hey, hey, hey, hey!" Zhou Yu slapped his face and made an audition.
"Ladies and gentlemen, Radis is slow to cut! There's one thing to announce next! As soon as everyone saw this person standing at the back of the carriage, although he acted perversely and looked bloody, he exuded an undoubted vigor on his body, so they put down the servants in front of them one by one, and involuntarily gathered over, wanting to hear what he had to say.
"Thank you for standing so tall and so close to me and listening to me! The auction was held here at the behalf-beneficial, Dubancia Hot Wheels Operations, LLC. After speaking, Zhou Yu paused, and slowly inspected to make sure that everyone understood what he said.
Some of the high-ranking cadres whispered, obviously confirming each other's eyes and information, has anyone heard of who this special person is not relying on Rumpu. One by one, shaking their heads and pondering confirmed the Governor's suspicions, and even if they didn't know, they would not be able to question them in public, which would make them appear ignorant. This kind of scene is simply tried and tested, I remember that Mr. Zheng Yuanjie once played a hand at the writers' association, and miserable those fake writers who wanted to save face and suffer crimes.
"Oh, there are three items in this auction...
"Wait, what's the auction?" Someone finally couldn't hold back and asked the first question.
"This guy asked well, so bold, so courageous, so far-sighted, you must have graduated from Wudaokou Vocational and Technical School!"
"The so-called auction is that I take out a thing to display, and you can bid to buy it when you are optimistic. Zhang San shouted 800, Li Si could shout 1,000, and Lao Wang next door could shout 2,000, and the one with the highest price would get it. After the auction, one hand to pay the money, the other hand to deliver! The two don't owe each other! β
"Cut, to put it lightly. Why should we believe you, not to mention that you have anything of value to put up for auction, but that you, a pariah, have the right to stand among us and talk freely? A woman dressed as a fox covered her mouth and ridiculed him, although her voice was not loud, but because of her sharp voice and harsh words, everyone listened to him very clearly, and did not drop a word. Many people followed suit, which shows that the girl has found an idea.
However, this was not too much for the Grand Governor, who had already put together a perfect plan as he opened the door. If you fail, it can only mean that your life should be like this.
"Just say your name and you'll be given some thin noodles!"
"Thin noodles? It's inevitable that you will have a good fight! β
"Hahaha, ignorant rats!"
"Untouchables, get out!"
"Take that kid who can bring endless bad luck, and get out!"
"Don't worry, don't worry, everyone." The Grand Governor still maintained his demeanor, smiled and pressed his hands down, making a gesture of silence.
"Under the old pig's head!"
"W-What?"
"Y-You're the old pig's head?"
Zhou Yu is very sure that since the two-skin dog is such a key existence in the hearts of the wind wheels and even in the hearts of all passengers, why is the old pig's head not? The old pig's head should be, especially for the next few carriages.
It was his first bet. First of all, he bet that the old pig's head had not disappeared recently, but had disappeared for some time, and had disappeared without a trace before all the passengers boarded the train on this lap, so that no one in the room had the privilege of seeing the honor.
There was a reason why the Metropolitan had taken such a bold step, with black hair, a child and a female chameleon, no one dared to underestimate it. And the three words of the old pig's head are by no means as clichΓ© and ordinary as they sound, if you want to control this name, you must be equipped with a complex past and a shocking background, so for Zhou Yu, this role is simply suitable.
"How do you prove you're an old pig's head?" Suddenly, someone roared in the back and said everyone's doubts. Surrounded the three of them in the middle, the fat men and thin women under the fur jacket nodded one by one, indicating that they were good at asking.
"It's proof that I'm going back and forth between these carriages. Isn't it enough to be like a fish playing in the water, exploring the bag and taking things, and entering a no-man's land? If you still don't think that's enough, you can go to the first car and ask the two-skin dog. Zhou Yu rolled his eyes and glared at the man fiercely.
The man stuck out his tongue, obviously a little embarrassed that he had been scolded back. Zhou Yu knows that he must not be too tender when dealing with these guys who bully the soft and are afraid of the hard, the two dogs are all that virtue, can the old pig's head be kind? If you don't give him a plum blossom sitting, it's cheaper for him.
"What about the Broken Horseshoe Crab, the Python, Mr. Fallen, and the Silver Cunning in the front compartment? I don't know how awesome it is, I'm still not talking and laughing? You rich people are too easy, Naive! "In a hurry, the Metropolitan Governor repackaged and concocted all the stalks from more than 20 years ago.
Although it is a closed carriage, it is also a small society with a typical social structure. In any era, the most important concern of the rich is their personal safety, property security and status security, so they are obsessed with meddling and interfering in the system, the legal system and influencing the people around them.
Based on this consideration, the Grand Governor had no doubt that each of them had conducted a detailed investigation of the surrounding situation and environment as soon as they got into the car, and of course they had learned no less than his information fragments and details, and they were well aware of powerful figures such as Broken Horseshoe Crab, Hidden Python, Fallen, and Silver Cunning that might pose a threat to their safety.
A brief silence, a brief temptation. In a moment, it was a new round of head-to-ear and hot fire.
"How about it, guys, are you interested?"
"Tell me what you're selling?" A man in his early twenties asked. Zhou Yu glanced at him, this person's eyebrows were clear, his eyebrows showed a trace of feminine beauty, and he was dressed in fur, looking particularly rich and compelling.
"The first thing, the name of the sixth carriage is going to be sold!"
"Name? How do you sell names? β
"Isn't that a joke? The name of the carriage? β
"Hahaha, old pig's head, are you crazy?"
In a burst of ridicule, ridicule and abuse, Zhou Yu shook his head slightly.
"Dare to ask who is the surname of this talent?" The Metropolitan Governor stretched out his finger and pointed at the fur man who had just asked.
"Talents don't dare to be, in the lower wing clan soft dragonfly."
"A good name, people are as their name suggests, and they are indeed tender!" Zhou Yu was secretly amused in his heart, his name was so weak that it was difficult not to treat him as a sissy.
"May I ask what would happen if I used a red pen to thickly brush three words on the inside of this carriage - soft dragon hall?"
What will happen? Yes, the handsome men and women present bowed their heads in contemplation. No one has ever done this, and no one has dared to come up with such a bold idea.
"I'll tell you the results. As a result, everyone who sat in the sixth carriage would remember the name of the dragonfly and would know that the Wing Clan had such a number one. To put it mildly, even if you die, you don't have anything left. And your name continues to run wild with this subway, and you will always leave a mark on the world. β
Everyone gradually fell silent, thinking seriously about what the old pig's head said, as if they no longer looked down on him, and no one dared to scold a madman again.
"Think about it, how many people sit here every day, and how many people sit here every month? If you want to be famous, if you want to be developed, if you want to build momentum, there is no faster way than to buy the naming rights of my old pig's head! β
Speaking of which, Zhou Yu made a closed movement with his two hands in the air, just like a conductor confidently closing the level after completing an excellent performance. It is true that advertising appeared a little earlier in the Borderlands, but the Metropolitan Governor believes that as long as the marketing is done well, there is nothing that cannot be sold.
"But why should I let others remember my name?" Although the soft dragon looks smart and icy, the questions she asks are one race at a time.
"You have a lot of reasons to buy it. First, after the title, more people will remember you, and they will remember your clan, which will be of great benefit to you in doing business, walking the rivers and lakes, improving social influence and even carrying out public welfare undertakings. β
"Second, if you buy the naming rights, you can also ask not to write the Rou Dragonfly Hall. According to your requirements, the customer is God, as long as it is within five words, I can satisfy you. For example, Nika I love you, fight tigers tonight, I love a firewood, and when it comes to courtship and scolding the street, I tell you, there is no more affordable and small way than buying naming rights! β
"Third, and most importantly. Let me ask you, Brother Roulong, do you or your Wing Clan have any rivals? β
"Well... The dragonfly's eyes glanced to the right, and a Humpty Dumpty man who looked like the fat tiger in Doraemon had been looking at him with his nostrils facing upwards, and two servants at his knees were busily hammering his legs.
Understand and receive, he is your soft dragonfly's opponent!
"It doesn't matter if you have an opponent, who is not in a love-killing relationship with whom? The most important step you have to take is to prevent your opponent from buying the naming rights. Once the ad space is owned by him, okay! The world is in chaos, he wants to write that you can eat. Oops, it's scary to think about, every person sitting in the sixth carriage looks up and sees five big words: so-and-so is eating. The picture is so beautiful that I dare not imagine it! β
Speaking of this, Zhou Yu hurriedly covered his eyes with his hands and looked at the reactions of the gold ingots in front of him through his fingers.
Sure enough, someone loosened. Although more people still have a wait-and-see attitude, as long as one person is tempted, he will not worry about the scene. This also objectively proves the saying: a good lobbyist is stronger than a well-trained army.
"Old pig's head, how much do you, your name sell?" Rou Dragonfly saw that others were still calculating and scheming, and if she didn't take the lead, she was a little sorry for the old pig's head.
"Well, there is no reserve price for the things that will be auctioned today. Would you like to ask Lady Rou to bid? Zhou Yu made a gesture of please, not that he didn't want to set a starting price, but that he didn't know what was most valuable on the Dubancia Continent.
"Okay, then I, then I'll make five fish."
Five fish? It was five slaves, and this sentence caused quite a commotion in the carriage, with some people lamenting that three words could be exchanged for five fish, while others questioned whether the bid was too low.
"Jujo!" A lazy voice came from the fat tiger brother's side, although the voice was not loud but undoubted, full of contempt and provocation. The fat tiger sat slumped in his chair, without the slightest intention of getting up to fight, as if he didn't need to show an attitude at all to deal with a small dish like a soft dragonfly.
The dragonfly bit her lip and glared viciously.
"Fifteen!"
"Twenty! Ahaha-" Not only did the man not even lift his eyelids, but he even yawned. As soon as others saw the beginning of the bidding, the two powerful figures were on the line, not what a good show was, but now it is here. One by one, they blushed and coaxed and shouted gloatingly, which was really not a big deal to see the excitement.
"Diao silkworm, are you kid deliberately trying to trouble me?" The soft dragon couldn't resist it anymore, and turned around to question the fat tiger in public. It turned out that this person's name was Diao Silkworm, but Zhou Yu was startled, thinking that Diao Chan fell here from the black hole. Even if Sister Mink hits the ground with her face, it is a hundred times stronger than this product. Homonym, it must be homophony. Don't have any associations, or you won't be able to eat this week.
"Soft Dragonfly, are you blind or deaf? If you let these people around you break off, where am I going to trouble you? Did I kick you, hit you, or scold you? It's really self-inflicted, self-inflicted! Although Diao Silkworm was a little fatter, her mouth was very flexible, and a few words spewed out, and most of the governors immediately made a judgment: Rou Dragonfly is not this kid's opponent, no wonder he came up to inquire about the price, it turned out that he was frightened by Zhou Yu's sentence "Beware of the opponent to buy".
