Chapter 10: Dead?
A small funeral parlor called "Leaving the World" in the east of Nanshan City Funeral Street, the boss's surname is Luo, and Boss Luo's son is called Luo Feng, one year older than Chen Jian, but because he stayed one level in elementary school, he became a classmate with Chen Jian, Luo Feng is not stupid, nor naughty, so he repeats the grade, completely because this kid has been addicted to cultivating immortals since he was a child and can't extricate himself.
Maybe it's because my family runs a funeral home, and I've been exposed to all kinds of deaths since I was a child. According to what Luo Feng said, what dead people have never seen, the drowned corpses are swollen, the brains of jumping off the building burst, the car accident is not human, and all kinds of deaths are miserable.
After seeing too much death, Luo Feng did not feel accustomed to it, but became more and more afraid, every time he saw the pale figure lying in the coffin, he would feel a sense of suffocation, as if he could hear the human figure whispering in his ear: Sooner or later, you will lie here...... Feeling the pressure of death enveloping his young body,
Luo Feng watched "Journey to the West" on TV when he was a child, and it was said in the play that eating a fairy peach can prolong his life for a thousand years, and eating a Tang monk can lead to immortality, but he is envious.
Once he pulled Chen Jian and said, "I think Li Shimin is a little stupid." ”
Chen Jian asked puzzledly, "Where is the stupidity?" ”
"If he didn't let Tang Seng go to the West to learn scriptures, but ate him, then we should still be in the prosperous era of the Tang Dynasty now." Luo Feng said with a serious face.
Chen Jian was speechless......
This shows the depth of his obsession with life and death. And he became obsessed with cultivating immortals, and he wanted to be immortal after becoming an immortal, so he studied all kinds of books on cultivating immortals and cultivating truth since he was a child, and took mathematics classes, with a mathematics book on the top and a "Notes on the Jade Sutra in the Yellow Court" below. Hell if you can pass the exam, and it's good luck to keep only one level.
But things took an unexpected turn when they got to junior high school. A scumbag who barely graduated from elementary school by cheating suddenly turned around and turned into a school bully, which surprised all the teachers at the time, and the secret was only known to Luo Feng and Chen Jian.
Chen Jian rode an electric car to the "world", it was already half past three in the afternoon, there was only one hall holding a funeral, and the whole funeral home seemed a little empty and deserted.
Although "leaving the world" is a time-honored brand, there are no repeat customers and customers in this industry. On the contrary, because of the age, the equipment is outdated, and the environment is cramped. Business is getting bleak.
Especially last year, a memorial funeral parlor was opened opposite, "nostalgic" is the premier funeral group in S province, there are branches in every city and county in the province, with rich wealth, gorgeous decoration, complete facilities, and the service staff who connect the guests are young and beautiful. This has made the business operation of "out of the world" worse and worse.
Chen Jian walked around the auditorium and walked to the office building at the back, "Is Luo Feng here?" ”
"Xiao Dao, Xiao Luo was called by the boss to go to the conference room for a meeting." Most of the employees knew Chen Jian, who often came to Luo Feng.
Came to the conference room on the second floor, and walked in quietly, a group of people were thinking about it, and they didn't notice Chen Jian coming in for a while.
"Now the competition is getting more and more fierce, we have to do some innovation, you young people use your brains more and think of some tricks, otherwise you will have to drink the northwest wind." Boss Luo frowned sadly and convened a meeting of employees in the office to think of countermeasures.
"Renovate, make a two-dimensional theme auditorium, a robot cat paper man, and a Transformers wreath." A young employee wearing a One Piece T-shirt suggested.
"How can you afford to decorate."
"Our hearse was about to be replaced, the engine was turned off in the middle of the last trip, and the body seemed to be heated in an oven on a 40-degree hot day, and the family members were about to beat me," complained Wang Jianguo, the hearse driver.
"There's no money to change the car." Several proposals were sent back by Boss Luo because he had no money.
"Don't think about how to spend money, what can be done with money, do you still need to think, you have to brainstorm, open your mind, you have to have that, what Internet thinking." Boss Luo took a sharp puff of cigarette and said with hatred.
"One-click burial, cloud filial piety?" Luo Feng, who was sitting next to Boss Luo, muttered quietly.
Boss Luo slapped his thigh, "This is good, as soon as you hear it, you will be tall!" ”
"Didi, go out of the funeral immediately." The driver Wang Jianguo also immediately came to inspiration, seeing that he usually drives Didi to take private work, but if his passengers knew that his car transported corpses during the day, would they dare to take his car at night.
"This is good, it is to break the traditional thinking in this way, we want a new model of Internet + O2O, buried in the cloud, and graved in the cloud. Start from the customer's pain points! Boss Luo felt a little pain in his leg, so he slapped the table and praised loudly.
"Congratulations on winning 20 red envelopes, share them with those who are dying"
"If you die now, you can enjoy a 20% discount on door-to-door corpse collection."
"100 off for the first death."
"Scan the QR code and draw a free cremation."
"Share our mourning hall photos to the circle of friends to collect likes, like more than 100 to send the urn, and repost the lottery on Weibo, retweet more than 999 times, and give a pair of mahogany coffins."
"Two people die together, one person is free of charge, invite friends and have cashback (dark coins), and add a couple package."
"Sign in every day to cry and mourn, and send wreaths and paper gift bags."
"Buy no death insurance, full refund when due, and give the whole family reunion dinner"
"Share the cemetery, save the land, and save your funeral expenses."
"Shake the grave nearby and look for more friends."
"Search for three of your deceased friends within 500 meters ahead, if you are going to visit the grave."
"Recharge Green Diamond Music, enjoy 15 mourning songs, and download the master-level Great Compassion Mantra for a limited time."
"Shopping for tombstone skins in the mall, there are limited themed models every season, so you can't miss the opportunity."
"Recharge the annual fee member, you can enjoy the grave jumping and hearse drift for free."
"Okay, good, just a good name, we can go to financing, this is still a blue ocean." Seeing that everyone's thoughts were gushing, Boss Luo became more and more excited the more he talked. I felt that my hand would still hurt when I slapped the table, so I patted Luo Feng's shoulder next to me and snapped.
"Or it's called 'Dead?' Accountant Ma Zhu Li pushed his glasses and said incomprehensibly.
"Wonderful, it is worthy of graduating from a prestigious school, that is, it is cultured, and this name is foreign." Boss Luo made a decision on the spot, "Xiaofeng, you can make a PPT today, and I will find a few friends who do finance tomorrow to help assess the value." Our goal is to go public on the NASDAQ! ”
Luo Feng could only agree with a bitter face. At this time, Wang Jianguo's mobile phone rang, and he ran out to answer a call and came back, "Boss, Officer Zhang's phone is alive." ”
As soon as he heard that there was a job, Boss Luo finally reluctantly announced the dismissal of the meeting, and pulled the secretary Xiao Dong to further plan the new journey of the Internetization of his funeral home.
After the meeting ended, Luo Feng saw Chen Jian sitting in the back, "Ma Dan, don't squeak when you come, let you see the joke." ”
"No, no, no, it's learning, your dad can, this ideological consciousness is too trendy. I think OK! Chen said narrowly.
"I don't think so." Luo Feng shook his head and took out a pair of sunglasses from nowhere.
"I don't think it's fair to say that." Chen Jian also took out a pair of sunglasses.
"It's actually a little embarrassing for you to do this." Luo Feng took out a large gold chain and put it around his neck.
"I think when I get such an evaluation after a very consistent performance, I feel like I'm a little out of control." Chen Jian said as he stepped back.
"Tangtang will remember it first, I'll take a look at the rest before making a decision" Luo Feng pushed open the door of the conference room and walked out.
"Crazy, you're really stricter than I thought!" Chen Jian followed Luo Feng and walked upstairs while continuing to play hip-hop stalks.
"Aren't you going to the kitchen?" Chen Jian went up to the third floor and asked in surprise.
"What's the hurry, I'll show you my latest results!" Luo Feng smiled mysteriously.
