Chapter 1019: Starsailer

Su Tao's thoughts, in fact, Song Sichen and Dou Fanggang can also understand.

Everyone has the idea of protecting the calf, sometimes let their apprentices take a little less detours, they will dig out hollow ideas, such as the college entrance examination, many parents know that special students can reduce points, so they will go to the door, obviously some students are not top-notch in sports, but they have obtained the qualification of sports students, so that in the competition of the college entrance examination, you can have more advantages than others.

In addition, in today's society, if you don't use your brain, others will dig out their minds and think crookedly.

Su Tao has participated in the King of Medicine Competition and knows that there are still some unspoken rules in it.

Although the president of the Chinese Medicine Association has changed its leader, the new Chinese Medicine Alliance and the Chinese Medicine Association are competing openly and secretly, and they can be indescribable.

The King of Medicine Competition is sponsored by the Association of Traditional Chinese Medicine, and the New Chinese Medicine Alliance is only a participant.

As for the judges of the competition, three of the five judges are members of the Chinese Medicine Association and two are members of the New Chinese Medicine Alliance. Therefore, when selecting the king of medicine, the Chinese Medicine Association must have more advantages.

Xiao Jingjing is a representative elected by the New Chinese Medicine Alliance, and the Chinese Medicine Association also has its own seed players. Judging from the proportion of judges, Xiao Jingjing wants to win the title of the King of Medicine Competition, and the difficulty is not ordinary.

Based on the above reasons, Su Tao decided to persuade the second elder Song Dou to secretly make some efforts to provide Xiao Jingjing with some help.

Although the second elder scolded Su Tao in his mouth, his heart was open.

Su Tao can still feel their mood, although they will not deliberately suppress others for Xiao Jingjing, but if someone is unfavorable to Xiao Jingjing, the second elder will definitely stand up for Xiao Jingjing, with the second elder in the Chinese medicine industry, although the Chinese medicine association is strong, but it does not dare to offend these two giants.

To use a simple analogy, if the Chinese Medicine Association goes too far, Song Dou and the others raise their arms and say that they will never participate in the King of Medicine Competition in the future, then this competition will lose a lot of attention. The Association of Traditional Chinese Medicine is nominally the organizer, but the organizer is a planning company, which can earn a lot of advertising sponsorship fees every year by relying on the King of Medicine Competition, and the money handed over to the Association of Traditional Chinese Medicine is also a lot of money, and the gold content of the King of Medicine Competition will definitely not be allowed to be reduced.

What's more, the New Chinese Medicine Alliance is now a different mountain, and has the strength and financial resources to hold an industry event similar to the Medical King Competition. At present, 80% of the people in the Chinese Medicine Association have withdrawn from the Association to join the New Chinese Medicine Alliance, and without the participation of these Chinese medicine professionals, the future medical king competition will not be worthy of its name.

The New Chinese Medicine Alliance now has Qihuang Charity as a financial support, and it is easy to do some things.

With the continuous development of medical assistance projects, Sanwei Tang has gradually become famous throughout the country, and many TCM masters hidden in the private sector have also been moved to actively apply to become volunteers in the APP software of Sanwei International, which can not only get the bounty of Qihuang Charity, but also has become an invisible resume of TCM.

After completing the bounty task, each TCM volunteer will receive a certificate and medal of the Qi Huang Charity Method, which will be stamped with the seal of the Qi Huang Charity and the New TCM Alliance, which certifies that the TCM practitioner has actively participated in medical assistance operations.

The level of the medal is upgraded according to the number of bounty tasks and the difficulty, and it is divided into five levels, from bronze to glory. At present, no one has reached the level of Honor TCM, and Honor TCM can enjoy the treatment of Sanweitang consultants, and if you are willing to work in Sanweitang for a long time, you can enjoy an annual salary of 5 million.

According to Su Tao's idea, the right to host the King of Medicine Competition in the future will still have to be in his own hands, and the current King of Medicine Competition has too strong commercial atmosphere and not enough academic atmosphere. Because the sponsors are all wealthy medicinal herb merchants, they invest in the Medical King Competition not to promote the inheritance and progress of traditional Chinese medicine culture, but to build their own fame and broaden their own sales channels of medicinal materials.

The impure purpose of the King of Medicine competition cannot attract more public attention.

However, if you want to seize the right to host, you still have to go step by step, after all, the official nature of the Chinese Medicine Association is very heavy, and the pace of the new Chinese Medicine Alliance cannot be too fast.

With the continuous growth of the team of the New TCM Alliance, the office of the association has now been established, with a total of 18 staff members. In addition to being responsible for the overall arrangement of daily member activities, he also has to be responsible for editing the journal, and the manuscript fee for the journal is also quite amazing, with a standard of 1,000 words and 1,000 yuan, but the review requirements are also very strict.

Su Tao once took the time to write an academic article, which was published in the journal and received a lot of praise.

Although young people don't read newspapers and magazines, don't even have much interest in TV, and like to play with their mobile phones all day long, for practitioners of traditional Chinese medicine, they still prefer traditional physical books. Of course, on the Sanwei International APP, you can also see the journal of each issue.

……

Most of the Chinese people's impression of cruise ships began with "Titanic". A behemoth on the sea, with a palatial interior, and romantic and classic love, this poignant tale that took place in the Atlantic Ocean a hundred years ago makes people yearn for the mystery of cruise ships.

The predecessor of the cruise ship was the ocean liner, and in the era before the advent of airplanes, once the destination of the tourist needed to cross the sea, the only choice was to choose the ocean passenger liner. Once you get on board, you will stay for at least a few weeks or even months. At that time, passenger liners were just a means of transporting passengers.

When the airplane officially became a civilian means of transportation, the business of cross-sea passenger liners gradually became bleak, and gradually began to transform into a comfortable travel service for tourists with money and leisure

On the leaflets of many cruise companies, the words "luxury cruise" are simply flying all over the sky, such as five-star hotels floating on the sea, enjoying global cuisine, "luxury" and "cruise" have always been tied together, but this is also the biggest misunderstanding of cruise ships.

In fact, the treatment of most cruise tours is very average, even if it is a 100,000-ton ultra-luxury cruise ship, the cabin is judged by hotel standards, and it is only about three stars.

As for cruise cabins, they are usually divided into three categories: interior cabin, sea view room, and luxury sea view suite, and the inner cabin is the cheapest cabin.

The Starsailer is a medium-tonnage cruise ship, but it has all the facilities inside. You must know that the larger the hull, the better, and the general ultra-luxury cruise ships are medium-sized cruise ships of 5-70,000 tons, because if the tonnage of the cruise ship is too large, the number of people accommodated will be relatively large, which will reduce the sense of experience.

Captain Du Ziqian is a middle-aged man about fifty years old, who has been dealing with the sea all his life, has rich experience, has seen the true power of nature, the strongest storms, and has also encountered the most sinister man-made disasters, and has fought with pirates who are rampant on the sea, and he has an obvious scar on his chin, which was cut with a knife when the pirates plundered.

Du Ziqian and Gu Yin have a good relationship, and the two have known each other when Du Ziqian was a sailor. Du Ziqian brought some special products from China, all of which were sold with Gu Yin's help, for which Du Ziqian could earn a lot of extra income. When he had accumulated enough money, he invested in a cruise ship with others.

However, the cruise ship was later buried in the sea, Du Ziqian lost all his money, Gu Yin took a fancy to Du Ziqian's character and funded him a sum of money to help him make a comeback.

Today's Du Ziqian has several cruise ships, in fact, he doesn't have to come and go in the wind and rain, and he can live comfortably for the rest of his life. But he is used to life at sea, so he still insists on going to sea every year.

Because Gu Yin repeatedly emphasized the importance of Su Tao on the phone, Du Ziqian personally brought Su Tao, Ni Jingqiu and Gu Li to the luxurious sea-view room.

All three rooms are about 30 square meters of boutique cabins, and you can see the rising sun from the cabin every morning.

The dinner was very rich, Du Ziqian opened a table in the restaurant alone, in addition to lobster, venison, wild boar, etc., which corresponded to the term "delicacies of the mountains and seas".

The room was as warm as spring, Du Ziqian raised his wine glass and said with a smile: "You are Gu Yin's friends, that is, my friends of Du Ziqian." These days on the ship, you have a good time to take a look around: swimming pool, jacuzzi, jogging track, gym, miniature golf, disco, dance classes, library, shopping center, health club, spa, musical theater, etc., it is quite interesting. ”

Gu Li pursed her lips and smiled, and said in a low voice, "You should have a casino on board, right?"

Du Ziqian was slightly stunned, and said with a dumb smile: "Of course there are casinos." A lot of people are coming for the casino. Cruise ships were invented by the British, and many people in the world who like to gamble, many people think that they are Chinese, but they are not correct, but the British. For example, when their prince got married, there were spinach companies that designed all kinds of interesting bets, such as what color the queen's hat was, whether Prince Philip would fall asleep again at the wedding, whether Princess Kate would run away from marriage, whether Prince William would wear glasses and a beard, or shave his head ......"

Gu Li smiled excitedly: "Then I'll have to try my luck later." ”

Ni Jingqiu shook her head helplessly and said with a wry smile: "You just take it easy, don't lose your pants." ”

Su Tao smiled and said to Ni Jingqiu, "Can you stop her?"

Ni Jingqiu shrugged her shoulders and sighed, "I can't stop it, so I'll decide to keep an eye on her next to her later, so I won't go astray." Come with us. ”

Su Tao has no interest in gambling, Du Ziqian said with a smile next to him: "In fact, the casino is a place for leisure and entertainment, and the ordinary area is similar to the game machine hall. ”

It's not that Du Ziqian deliberately instigated the three of them to gamble, but the most luxurious facilities and the most intimate service on the whole ship must be in the casino, if the three of them don't go to have a look, they will definitely regret it.

There is a big difference between the ordinary area and the VIP area, and the VIP area needs to give a deposit to prove the financial strength, after all, the guests there are either rich or expensive.

Su Tao nodded and said with a smile: "Wait and go around, and go to the casino by the way." ”

After a full meal, the three of them went back to the room to rest, after Su Tao took a shower, the door was knocked, after Su Tao opened the door, she saw Ni Jingqiu standing outside the door, she changed her clothes, a set of evening dresses, luxurious as a character from a fashion movie, Gu Li was wearing a set of medium-sized clothes, white shirt, butterfly tie, suit vest and trousers, and a pair of men's leather shoes that would not fit and were polished.

Su Tao smiled helplessly, the two of them shouted that they would go to the casino together.
