0232 Storm, Professional, Aftermath [This chapter is named by Lord Shenming-2/8]
At half past eight in the evening, an unnamed ordinary citizen, who was called Mr. Citizen, dragged his tired body open the door and returned home.
The cramped room had already made it difficult for him to have the courage to change his current situation with his own abilities as he did when he was younger, and he had begun to become numb.
"Coming back?", the citizen's wife was busy in the kitchen, and the slight smell of vomiting made the citizen have little strength to answer, he just answered with a "hmm", and then sat down on the shabby sofa.
A small part of the sofa collapsed, and one of the springs in it broke, and then it quickly affected the other springs, and eventually it became an undesirable place, where only the wife of Mr. Citizen, or their child, who was not too heavy, would sit.
This time, after the town hall reissued the food coupons, people found that it was difficult for them to exchange for solid food from the relief point, and all the hard, stone-like food they complained about had been replaced with liquid food.
It looks like something just pulled out of the poop, and it's packed in some tube, and it's as simple as putting the whole tube in hot water and soaking it for a while every time you eat it.
Then squeeze it out of the tube, like, squeeze it on a plate, and eat it in your stomach.
A lot of people aren't used to this new food, but the town hall says that there are too many unemployed people at the moment, too many people are affected by unemployment, and the city hall's finances are very tight, and they can't come up with so much money to keep everyone well fed and well-fed.
Of course, if they use two or three food rolls, they can exchange them for solid food like before, but this is obviously not very cost-effective.
In this case, people quickly figured out how to make these foods look a little easier to eat.
The women of the family would squeeze it on a baking tray and brush the bottom of the cup with oil pressure to turn the poop into round biscuit-like discs.
Leave it in the oven for a while, and when the water evaporates, it leaves behind solid food like biscuits.
This solves the problem of taste, and then they only need some worthless potatoes, tomatoes or some greens and a small handful of wheat flour to make some thick soup, and they can deal with lunch or dinner very well.
The family sat in the dim light, absentmindedly eating this not-so-tasty dinner.
Mr. Civic's wife couldn't help but ask, "How is it today?", she probably just felt that the silence of everyone while the family was eating together would make the atmosphere heavy, and she could swear that she just didn't like the silence and wasn't deliberately trying to irritate her husband.
The frustration that Mr. Citizen had suffered during this time flares up again at this moment, and he has exploded several times before, and he jerks to his feet, looking angrily at the stupid woman who has challenged his position and majesty.
I don't know if it was the gaze of the son sitting on the side who played some role, Mr. Citizen didn't follow any further this time, he just said "lost appetite" and left the dining room, and walked into the living room instead.
He turned on the TV, and it was probably one of the few pleasures he had to watch TV now, and in a family like his.
Fortunately, the city cable TV company has waived the service fee that people have to pay during this time - TV and phone do not need to be purchased, these are gifts, but the premise is that users must subscribe to the services of these service providers for a certain period of time at one time before they will give these things to people.
Some are three years, some are five years, for ordinary families, they only need to pay a service fee for TV signal access every month, and they can get a TV for free, which makes a lot of money, and many people have participated.
However, the situation of telephone is different, because the communication fee is real-time, and they need to pay the minimum monthly usage fee in addition to the most basic cost of using the communication line, which is a large expense.
Most families don't need a phone for work and life, so there are not many people who install a phone, but TV is different, everyone likes to watch TV, and in this situation, they can't do without TV.
Just when Mr. Citizen was about to watch a sports program, to his surprise, the program was canceled and replaced with another game, and he cursed and cursed something, damn it, nothing went well.
He looked for a day's work outside, begging those younger than him, but he never got a job.
He feels like a dog, anyone can kick him, and now he has to be ridiculed by his wife when he comes home, and now he can't even watch TV to his satisfaction.
The more he thought about it, the more angry he became, and a tyrannical mood of destruction began to creep out of his heart, and grew rapidly without him knowing.
His eyeballs were starting to get congested with high blood pressure, and he had a desire to pick up the knife in the kitchen and make all those who kept themselves from being happy regret that they had come into this world.
But at this moment, there was a brief pause in his intense and stirring emotions, and then his attention was turned to the television screen.
The young girls, dressed more scantily than his wife, were running across the TV screens, galloping across the grass, and watching the choppy images suddenly began to calm down quickly.
The emotion of destruction can only retract unwillingly to the bottom of my heart, waiting for the next opportunity.
The young bodies on the TV make Mr. Citizen vaguely feel the delicate and smooth touch and the refreshing fragrance even through the TV.
His attention was more focused, and he would laugh when the girls collided and tease him professionally.
Most of the time, his eyes are focused on the ball, and although he has not worked in a sport-related job, he is definitely a professional when it comes to watching the ball.
When the wives and children of the citizens walked into the living room, they thought that it would be an oppressive cemetery-like atmosphere, or a volcano about to erupt.
But what they didn't expect was that Mr. Citizen actually had some smiles on his face.
"This kind of competition is really ......", suddenly Mr. Citizen, who came back from the competition, found his wife and children standing next to him, he immediately felt a little red-faced, and he wanted to find some excuse to explain why he was so engrossed in looking at the girls, "It's really vulgar, God, they can put this kind of show on the free channel!"
Free-to-air stations are the basic services of television companies, and you can watch these programs as long as you pay the most basic fees, while some of the better or limited programs are on the paid channels, where the best programs are available.
Mr. Citizen stretched out his hand to change the channel, but was stopped by his wife, "You were very focused just now, maybe I will like this kind of show too?"
There can be a show that can calm down the angry husband, and the wife is already thankful, she doesn't want to be reprimanded or even beaten by her husband for a reason after changing the channel.
If letting him take a few more glances at these shameless women can get the unhappiness of the night past, then why should she refuse?
In this way, a family of three watched this fragrant game carefully under some kind of divine mission, and after the lights went out at night, life became more harmonious.
Such people, such families, are not in the minority, and the next day there was a huge reaction in the society of Sabine City, and many people called the television company and asked when they could see the second game, and whether this kind of game was a scattered exhibition game or a league with rules.
Behind all these inquiries, in fact, is the demand for more plays and more new content for this kind of competition!
The leadership of the TV station immediately held a meeting, knowing that it was the time that Lynch "bought" to broadcast the show through Mark's connections.
Yes, he paid for it to get the game on TV, but he obviously won't do it in the future.
The huge response made his relationship with the TV station one after another, and if the TV station wanted to continue to get the broadcast rights from Lynch, they would have to pay.
It's just that the amount they discussed couldn't satisfy Lynch, so the United Games received the news that day - a sport that was not on the list of the United Games was born, and it also had good ratings and social support.
The Sabine TV station wanted to buy the rights to the broadcast from the Intermodal Games, and offered a decent price.
Sabin TV and the Games have always had a cooperative relationship, and the annual broadcast costs of various competitions alone cost about one or two million, or even a little more.
The United Games were also surprised when they learned about this, and they immediately launched an investigation, and then sent a negotiation team to talk to Lynch.
They want to co-opt Lynch's teams and games, and they want to bring this women's professional football game into the jurisdiction of the United Games.
This was foreseen by Lynch at the beginning, and this is also the purpose of his doing, he wanted to talk to the people of the United Games, talk about the proportion of broadcast costs and promotion resources.
In fact, the operation of the club is not much simpler than running a company, don't look at this as a closed industry, in fact, the competitiveness of the industry is greater than those open industries, and it is more cruel.
A capable team can feed itself every year just by relying on broadcast fees, and can maintain the size of the club healthily and even make a profit.
But the team that doesn't have the ability and the way to do it, also holds a share of the broadcast fee, but it can't even maintain the most basic scale!
