The host was so sophisticated that it was natural to see that Zhang Zhong did not want to accept the prize, but he also came with a mission, so he could only hold the prize and lean towards Zhang Zhong: "Congratulations again for being the luckiest person tonight.
people."
The host Zhang Zhong asked for a microphone, but the host played a trick and handed over the microphone and the prize together.
In this case, even if Zhang Zhong doesn't accept the prize and reaches out here, the host can still complete the task.
Philosopher's Textile spent sponsorship money, and of course they hope to make the most of this sponsorship money, so they hope to take photos with the same frame as their products.
Zhang Zhong naturally knew what they were thinking, so he made a stop gesture directly to the host, then faced the audience and pressed his hands.
Of course, the host couldn't turn a blind eye to such an obvious action. Although he had a mission, he couldn't offend Zhang Zhong, so he stopped.
The people in the audience immediately became quiet when they saw Zhang Zhong lowering his hands.
The hall was not big, with only about twenty tables, so Zhang Zhong simply did not ask for the microphone and said loudly, "I can be considered the master of today's occasion. I don't want the first prize. I will take it out and start again later."
Lottery. In addition, in order to express my gratitude to everyone present, I will also draw a prize personally. The prizes are not divided into levels, they are all the same. The Dragon Boat Festival happens to be just over a week away, so to suit the occasion, the winner can
Get a rice dumpling."
Although there was no bonus of a loudspeaker, Zhang Zhong's voice still spread to all corners of the hall, and everyone heard Zhang Zhong's words.
Zhang Zhong's words naturally aroused discussion among everyone.
"I felt something was wrong with the lottery just now. It seemed like everyone Zhang Zhong brought had won."
"Not all of them were selected, but several were selected."
"I guess Zhang Zhong himself doesn't know about this, so he deliberately doesn't want to be rewarded."
"If there is really something fishy, Zhang Zhong probably doesn't know about it. He wouldn't ruin his reputation just for this."
"This operation is still possible, but the prize is a rice dumpling..."
"The prize is just that, it doesn't have to be too expensive."
"Maybe Zhang Zhong made the rice dumplings himself?"
"I see you're thinking about shit."
"If he really made the rice dumplings with his own hands, I don't think I would be willing to eat them."
…
While Zhang Zhong was speaking, Xi Jin had arranged for someone to send another microphone up.
Zhang Zhong took the microphone and continued, "This lottery will not use the previous lottery system. It is too troublesome. Let's do something simple. Everyone, follow my instructions. All those with "s" in their names raise their hands."
After he finished speaking, there was a roar and a large number of hands were raised. Zhang Zhong did not have a detailed count, but there should be thirty or forty people.
This surprised him. He didn't expect that there would be so many people with "s" in the pinyin of their names.
No one at Hu Huifang's table raised their hands. Zhang Xingjun laughed and said, "Not one of us has an S in his name."
Liu Feng smiled and said, "It's true, but if it's a u, we'll have too many tables."
Xu Yuhan nodded and said, "Yes, most of our tables bring u."
Zhang Xingjun said: "That's right, I just don't bring Pengpeng with me."
Pengpeng tilted her head and said, "It's useless to bring u, dad said to bring s."
…
At this time, Zhang Zhong said again, "Among those who raised their hands, if the card number in today's draw ends with an odd number, please put down your hand."
More than half of the people put down their hands in disappointment.
Zhang Zhong roughly counted, and there were still twelve people with hands raised.
When the number of people was almost there, Zhang Zhong said, "Congratulations to everyone who is still raising their hands, you have won the prize. Director Xi, please record all these lucky ones, and the prizes will be distributed in the future."
Xi Jin in the audience nodded, and then arranged for someone to record the people who raised their hands.
The whole lottery process was very short, so short that the host standing on the stage ended without even reacting.
When Zhang Zhong walked down the stage, the host hurriedly said, "Teacher Zhang, what about this?"
Zhang Zhong glanced at the first prize in his hand and said, "Didn't I just say that this prize will be drawn again. If you draw it again, whoever draws it will belong to him."
After saying that, Zhang Zhong walked away.
But the host had no choice but to ask people to draw again.
This time, there was nothing wrong. An ordinary staff member won the prize. The winning staff member excitedly ran up to the prize and gave a speech. However, he did not mention the Philosopher's Stone Textile at all, but instead thanked Zhang Zhong.
From Zhang Zhong's point of view, he really has to thank Zhang Zhong. If Zhang Zhong hadn't given up the prize, he wouldn't have won the draw.
The host on the side looked uncomfortable. This was really a loss for his wife and a loser. He could only keep reminding the winner that the person who gave him the prize was Philosopher's Stone Textile.
Zhang Chong returned to the table and did not see Xi Jin, so he asked the others: "Where is Director Xi."
Zhao Xinyue said, "The director said he has something to do and will be back soon."
Zhang nodded and said, "Okay, let's continue eating."
Xi Jin came back when he was almost finished eating. Zhang Zhong glanced at him and didn't ask him where he was going. He just greeted him to eat.
Zhang Zhong didn't ask, but Xi Jin had to say it. He took the initiative and said, "I just scolded the staff of their Philosopher's Stone. What I did was really unethical."
"They also want to improve the advertising effect, which is understandable." Zhang Chong said with a smile.
Xi Jin shook his head, "This is not the reason why they are unreliable. I also told Mr. Xu about this. Mr. Xu said that he would negotiate with the Philosopher's Stone. I think they should give an answer.
Bar."
"Thank you, you are the director. These things should not distract you. Since Xu Yang already knows, just let him handle it. My expectation for you is to make the movie well." After that, he added.
Looking at the others, he raised his voice and said, "It's rare that we can all get together today. Come on, I'll toast you all with tea instead of wine. I can't guarantee anything else. As long as it's a scene that's still being filmed on Jiaohu Island, I'll try my best to
It’s time to come and visit the class.”
"Teacher Zhang, we respect you!"
Zhang Zhong raised his glass like this, and everyone at the table stood up. Zhang Zhong did not move his buttocks and waved his hands to them, "Everyone, please feel free to sit down."
The opening party ended quickly.
After all, it's not a wedding banquet. The crew will start work early tomorrow morning. Everyone can't drink too much. Work is still important.
It was only around eight o'clock in the evening when Zhang Zhong and the others left.
On the way to leave the island by boat, I received a call from Xu Yang.
"Boss, I heard about what happened tonight, and I also reported it to Mr. Zhou from the Philosopher's Stone. He asked me if I could contact you."
When Zhang Zhong heard Xu Yang's words, he suddenly laughed and said, "How can such a trivial matter be so grand?"
Xu Yang immediately said in a solemn voice, "Boss, you need to know what you represent. This kind of thing may be a small thing when it comes to others, but when it comes to you, it is no exaggeration to say that it is disrespectful to our company.
.Mr. Zhou also explained to me that this matter was decided by the people in the branch. I hope you can understand."
"Okay, okay, don't sing too high-key with me. You can just handle this matter. Mr. Zhou said that I am not angry because of this matter, so he can rest assured and there is no need to contact me," Zhang Zhong said.
.
"Well, I understand."
…
The next day was Sunday. Zhang Zhong got up early in the morning and went for a run. When he came back, he heard Hu Huifang and Zhang Xingjun discussing the Philosopher's Stone.
Seeing Zhang Zhong's return, Hu Huifang asked, "Did you ask for this donation of the Midas Touch?"
Zhang Zhong was also stunned for a moment, because he had no idea what the Philosopher's Stone donation was, let alone how it was related to him.
"They donated money? What does it have to do with me?" Zhang Zhong asked.
"You don't know yet, let me show you the news." Hu Huifang handed over her mobile phone.
Zhang Zhong took the phone and quickly browsed the news on it.
The news content is not long, probably because the news did not come out for a long time, and the text is not long in order to grab the headlines.
The general content is that the official social account of Touchstone Textile posted an update early in the morning, saying that on a day like Children's Day, in order to care for the education and life of children in remote areas, they decided to donate 20 million Chinese coins.
Cash and bedding worth 30 million Chinese coins, and they hope that this part of the donations and materials will be used by the charity organization under Zhang Zhong's name.
In the updates released by Touchstone Textile, they praised Zhang Zhong’s personal charity behavior to the heavens, and highly praised the reasonable and efficient operation of the charity organization under Zhang Zhong’s name, so they hope to hand over this part of the cash and materials to what they think
The most professional people will make the most effective use of it.
After reading the report, Zhang Zhong knew that this update was an emergency public relations article.
This emergency public relations for Philosopher's Stone cost a lot of money. According to them, in addition to 20 million in cash, there was also 30 million worth of bedding.
Of course, the so-called value of 30 million cannot really be worth 30 million, but no matter what, they paid at least more than 20 million this time.
If more than 20 million is just to calm Zhang Zhong, this is obviously too high a cost, but this time the news is not just to please Zhang Zhong, but also to gain Zhang Zhong's popularity and create a wave of advertising.
.
Such high-cost public relations is definitely not something that ordinary managers can finalize. If Zhang Zhongliu is right, this public relations behavior should be done by Zhou Xuhua, the head of the Philosopher's Stone, who is also known as Mr. Zhou in Xu Yang's mouth.
Philosopher's Stone is a family business, and the current head, Zhou Xuhua, is the son of the founder, Zhou Mingyou.
Zhou Mingyou gave birth to his son Zhou Xuhua when he was in his forties. Now Zhou Mingyou is in his eighties, while Zhou Xuhua is only in his early forties.
Different from Zhou Mingyou's steady approach, Zhou Xuhua's approach is obviously more wild than his father's.
As early as ten years ago, Philosopher's Stone began to engage in a public opinion war, turning Philosopher's Stone into a national brand in one fell swoop. Then, relying on the huge consumer market in China, it went global, and its brand positioning took a leap forward.
To give an inappropriate example, ten years ago the Philosopher's Stone was still at the level of Anta, but in just ten years it became Nike.
Zhou Xuhua is very courageous in what he does and has an indomitable momentum.
It is said that he hoped to improve the brand level at that time, but encountered a lot of resistance. Many people believed that even if he wanted to improve the brand level, he should not abandon the existing customer groups, otherwise he would die in an ugly way.
But Zhou Xuhua didn't care about this at all. He abandoned all low-priced products in just over a year, which was equivalent to abandoning the low-consumption customers he had accumulated in one year.
The result is what it is now, Zhou Xuhua succeeded, and their brand gradually became established.
Moreover, after the success of the Philosopher's Stone, a large number of domestic low-end textile brands died, mostly because the brands did not keep up with the consumption concepts of the Chinese people.
In China, people who bought a piece of clothing worth 100 yuan ten years ago can now afford to buy a piece of clothing worth 1,000 yuan.
In this process, the Philosopher's Stone came out, while other brands fell behind.
…
Facts have proved that Zhou Xuhua’s public relations was very successful.
Their news became the headlines of the day within two hours of being posted.
The headlines are completely expected. First of all, the Philosopher's Stone itself is a very well-known brand, and the attention itself is not low.
In addition, they donated 50 million to charity this time.
A donation of 50 million is enough to spark discussion at any time. There are not many people or companies in China who can donate so much money at one time to charity.
The most important thing is that this news also brought Zhang Zhong, a traffic king.
Netizens are now praising Touchstone Textile for its generous donation this time, as well as Zhang Zhong’s ongoing charity activities.
As mentioned in the update of Philosopher's Stone Textile, their charitable act this time was completely inspired by Zhang Zhong.
And Zhang Zhong couldn't refuse this great gift.
He doesn't care about these tens of millions, but the children in remote areas cannot.
In a sense, the Philosopher's Stone's behavior was a personal "moral kidnapping" for Zhang Zhong, but this time he paid real money for the "moral kidnapping".
Zhang Zhong himself was not angry because of what happened last night, so he had no reason to refuse.
The company quickly responded to this matter, expressing its willingness to receive the Philosopher's Stone's love this time and will definitely convey their thoughts to every child.
Through this incident, Zhang Zhong finally got to know Zhou Xuhua.
Zhou Xuhua reacted quickly to this matter and handled it very well. In the end, a four-win situation was achieved that was beneficial to Zhang Zhong, the Midas Textiles, the children in remote areas, and the domestic charity.
If Zhang Zhong had no intention of expanding in business right now, he would actually be interested in making friends with Mr. Zhou.
Many people say that the rapid development of the Philosopher's Stone in the past ten years is due to Zhou Xuhua winning a huge gamble, just catching up with the tide of the times, and having a high level of luck.
However, after this incident, Zhang Zhong felt that it would be biased to attribute the success of Philosopher's Textile in the past ten years to the advancement of the times and large-scale gambling.
Times and luck are of course also one of the reasons for their success, but Zhou Xuhua's ability is definitely the top priority.
Zhou Xuhua's courage to spend 20 million in cash and a large amount of materials for public relations in such a short period of time is unmatched by most people.
At this time, not many people knew that it was an unpleasant incident at the opening ceremony that contributed to this great story.
