The Era of Hard Work

Heavyweight religious figures like Master Shi came to Qingzhao, not only received warm hospitality from Qingzhao officials, but also organized a series of activities by the United Front Work Department. Some heavyweight religious figures from Quannan and even Taidong also came to Qingzhao one after another. Ask Master Shi face-to-face for advice on business management.

Today's society is developing rapidly, and it can be said that it is a peaceful and prosperous age. All major temples open their gates to attract wealth and gifts, and most of them are following the Shaolin Temple.

Shaolin Temple's management method can be regarded as a model for them to learn from.

Master Shi is definitely a model representative of the presiding abbot in the new era.

Like the Longquan Temple in Moquan Park, although it is also commercialized, compared with the operation of Shaolin Temple, it is far worse.

Master Shi has been committed to expanding the brand influence of Shaolin Temple, and he is very busy attending various activities in Qingzhao.

But in his busy schedule, he was still thinking about the possibility of cooperating with Lu's Catering, so he took half a day to visit the Lu's Catering Building and inspected many stores of Lu's Catering located in University City and Qingzhao County.

Seeing is believing.

Master Shi has visited multinational chain restaurants such as KFC and McDonald's, but they are only at the level of Lu's Catering, and even in terms of strict management, they are not as good as Lu's Catering.

The Sudan red and ice cube colony incidents that broke out last year are the best proof.

Master Shi asked several great monks under him who were in charge of business to contact Lu's catering to discuss a more reasonable possibility of cooperation.

The current Shaolin Temple is indeed a gold-lettered signboard. After Lu Dong and Du Xiaobing held a meeting to discuss it, they thought they could talk about it, so they asked Xu Man to lead people to have a preliminary negotiation with the Shaolin Temple.

At the same time, Lao Du sent a market research team to conduct on-the-spot investigations in many cities across the country to see if Shaolin Temple Vegetarian Food really has market potential.

After all, it is still unknown how much effective conversion the golden signboard of Shaolin Temple can bring about in Su Zhai.

That Master Shi is full of confidence, but a mature catering company like Lu's Catering needs more first-line data to speak for itself.

As far as Quannan's preliminary statistics are concerned, it seems that the proportion of interested people is quite high.

At the same time, the arrival of the Kungfu monks from Shaolin Temple caused a huge commotion in Qingzhao and Quannan. The martial arts fever has not completely passed these days, and there is still a certain market for the saying that martial arts in the world come from Shaolin.

Chen Jieke, who was vigorously invited by Qingzhao, came to Qingzhao, and through Lu Dong's matchmaking, he negotiated with Shaolin Temple. During the opening ceremony, he will temporarily cooperate with a program, and the main selling point is kung fu.

The fact that Shaolin Temple can agree is because they want to use Chen Jieke's fame to create a sense of presence.

Strictly speaking, this is a strong alliance.

On the evening of April 29, 2003, the first Qingzhao Culture and Tourism Festival kicked off at Li Qingzhao Square in Moquan Park. Tens of thousands of people gathered in the square that had already been arranged to participate in the opening ceremony.

The opening ceremony did not disappoint those who rushed over, and gathered many stars such as Li Binbin, Liu Yiwei, Zhao Laogen, Jay Chou, Yin Xiangjie, Zhang Yuanfang, Yu Wenhua and Chen Jieke.

Shaolin Kungfu Monks also presented wonderful live performances.

The opening ceremony was broadcast live nationwide on Taidong Satellite TV, which attracted the attention of many people.

This is also a good start for the official opening of Qingzhao Cultural Tourism.

Throughout the May Day holiday, there were hundreds of large groups that had been officially confirmed, and there was an endless stream of people from small groups and surrounding areas.

From April 30th, both land and Qingzhao River waterways are extremely busy.

For example, Luozhuang Han Tomb Museum, which is famous all over the country, had to temporarily restrict the entry of people because of the large number of tourists on May 1st. After some tourists left, another group of tourists could be allowed to enter.

Among them, Longshan Black Pottery Museum sells extremely hot black pottery products.

Black pottery products that are pitch black and as thin as an eggshell can be regarded as a kind of high-end art and high-end gifts in this era.

Even Lu Dong and Song Na specially placed a pair of large black pottery vases for decoration at the entrance of the villa in the Quarry Villa.

Of course, both of them paid for it.

In contrast, the Qingzhao Blacksmith Hall, which is also in the Luozhuang Han Tomb Museum, is a bit deserted, and its flagship product, Qingzhao Iron Pot, is even less popular.

Not to mention outsiders, even Qingzhao people don't know that Qingzhao also has a special product called iron pot.

Also starting from April 30th, the Lujia Village Folk Tourist Area and the surrounding Fuhua Amusement Park were all overcrowded. The parking lots on both sides of Lujia Village, which can park hundreds of cars, were so crowded that the village had to separate them. Manpower, command vehicles to park on both sides of the east and west roads.

Going out to play at this time is actually not a good experience. Whether you are enjoying special snacks in the food street or visiting the folk custom area, you spend most of your time watching people.

However, there are few public holidays in China, and there are fewer opportunities to take the whole family out for fun.

Since the implementation of the May 1st and 11th long holidays in 1999, after many holidays, office workers don’t know when to come out, just to watch people, but except for the longer holidays at this time, there is usually so much free time.

As the evening approached, the number of people in the Lujia Village folk tourist area did not decrease, but more and more gathered. The advertisement that Shaolin monks will perform on the Lujia Village stage tonight had already been advertised.

In addition, the news that Qiao Weiguo, a famous Sanda master in Qingzhao, who defeated many folk Kung Fu masters consecutively in the past two years, will have an exhibition match with Shaolin monk Shi Xingyu after the performance by the monk troupe also spread.

Because there are too many people in the folk tourist area, in order to limit the number of people, we had to sell tickets.

In a room of the Folklore Exhibition Hall, Qiao Weiguo ate some supper and replenished his energy, and under the leadership of Yuan Baoshan, he did a simple warm-up exercise.

Fu Zhaoxia stood aside, looking at her boyfriend's bald head, somewhat worried.

Can it work? She didn't have any confidence at all, and asked Song Na next to her in a low voice: That's a monk from Shaolin Temple, Wei Guo can do it?

Song Na comforted: Weiguo is fine. His current level, Mr. Yuan said, is enough for a professional level. A few days ago, Mr. Yuan sparred with him, and he didn't even last a single round.

Her boyfriend is now the Sanda coach of No. 1 Sports, and Fu Zhaoxia has some understanding of this line of work: Teacher Yuan is getting old.

Song Na said: Don't forget, this match is based on the rules of Sanda.

In the past two years, Sanda has been very popular. Chinese professional Sanda players have frequently won matches against foreign players. Under the rules of Sanda, they are quite invincible.

Lu Dong, Li Wenyue and Du Xiaobing came in from the outside and stood at the temporary resting place, not disturbing Qiao Weiguo who was concentrating on warming up.

Old Du said to Lu Dong: Wei Guo has never been able to beat you, why don't you go up and fight?

Lu Dongniu coaxed and said, Once I go up, I will definitely be invincible.

Du Xiaobing looked up and down: Just you? Stop joking.

Li Wenyue interjected, Old Du, don't you know that Dongzi has a very powerful ability?

Lao Du lowered his voice: Iron waist?

In his opinion, a woman who can withstand Song Na's physical strength and energy is so explosive that she can't do it without a strong waist.

Li Wenyue was used to talking and laughing with Lu Dong in daily life, and after hearing too many new words that Lu Dong popped up from time to time, he said, No, it's money ability!

Old Du immediately understood, after all, he had used it before: That's right, once the banknote ability is released, the world is invincible!

Lu Dong was also joking: So, I can't go, it's too unfair.

Song Na and Xiao Fu came over at this time, and they were all laughing when they heard what they said.

At the reception meeting in the county the day before yesterday, Zhao Laogen joked with Chen Jieke, saying that he asked Chen Jieke to compete with Shaolin monks. Song Na whispered: Chen Jieke didn't want to, so he found an excuse and turned it down.

Xiao Fu continued: When Chen Jieke came to Fang Xuanling's hometown to recognize his ancestors, Wei Guo still wanted to discuss with him...

Du Xiaobing was on a business trip at the time and didn't know about it, so he asked, Did you fight?

No. Lu Dong roughly said, I took a photo with Wei Guo and signed it for Wei Guo.

It's not hard for Du Xiaobing to understand: That's right, it's no good to win, and you'll lose your reputation if you lose.

Li Wenyue asked, How likely is Weiguo to win today's game?

Lu Dong told the truth: I haven't seen Shaolin monks compete with others, so I really don't know.

It seems that Shi Xingyu in his memory has filmed many action movies and acted as an endorsement against telecom fraud for Qingzhao, but he seems to have never been competitive with others.

Anyway, Lu Dong didn't remember it.

Although we know that Shaolin monks have broken their lineage a long time ago, and the current Shaolin monks group evolved from the Shaolin martial arts team established by Master Shi, but with the huge name of Shaolin Temple, who dares to say that they are sure to win.

After chatting for a while, Jiao Shougui and Jiao Sanhei rushed over.

There was a promotion today, and there was a traffic jam on the road, so I was late. Jiao Shougui said as soon as he entered the door: I'm really sorry.

Then, Lao Liu and Liu Yang also came.

The people who set up stalls together at the night market were basically there, cheering for Qiao Weiguo together.

Outside, the monks began to perform on stage, and the audience cheered one after another.

After Qiao Weiguo's warm-up came to an end, Jiao Sanhei was the first to pass by, and shouted at him: Weiguo, we must win!

Lu Dong and the others also went over to bump fists with Qiao Weiguo one by one, cheering him on.

Yuan Baoshan finally gave Qiao Weiguo a tactical advice: We don't know the opponent, and we can't find any information about the opponent's game. The first round is safe, and we should do our defense first!

At the same time, in another room, Shi Xingyu was wearing a yellow monk uniform and was also making final preparations.

The coach of the monks said: I watched Qiao Weiguo's matches with some well-known martial arts masters in the past two years. This person is very accomplished in Sanda, and all of them are actual combat routines. Xingyu, we are different. We pay more attention to performance than to others. In actual combat, just take me as an example, I don’t even have the experience of on-the-spot guidance.”

This is the truth, he led the team out, basically performing.

He lightly patted Shi Xingyu on the shoulder: Don't think too much about those performative things and routine moves in the competition, those are fine against ordinary people, you are facing a professional Sanda master, so, During this period of time, I have been letting you know about Sanda, and even practicing Sanda, it should be of some use.

If you stand up well, compete with hard kung fu, or break bricks by kicking a wooden board, Shaolin Temple will definitely crush your opponent.
