Chapter 1 Free Babysitting (Part II)
When the two returned home excited, Shania yelled to watch TV. As a nanny, Shania's request must be met as soon as possible, Donn obediently turned on the TV, and before the picture appeared, he heard Lineker's familiar voice: "I think the audience who watched our show in front of the TV today must have been looking forward to it for a long time!" ”
The famous gentleman in English football raised his voice, as if he was not spending a football show, but commentating the game live.
Then Donn heard a whistle, and Alain. Hansen excitedly replied, "That's right! We've been waiting long enough! ”
The picture is finally out, Lineker is still the same, next to Alain. Hansen was a bit exaggerated, he had a small red flag in his hand, and he was waving it around. And Mark. Laurenson sat between the two of them, head bowed, and in front of him a brand-new electric shaver that hadn't even been opened.
Seeing this scene, Don ignored Shania's request to watch the cartoon, his eyes locked on the screen, and he laughed. Alan. Hansen is right, I've been waiting long enough!
Shania heard Don laugh so badly in the back, and her curiosity was piqued, and she squeezed in, intending to see what made Uncle Tony so happy.
Lineker on the TV screen pointed to the razor on the table and smiled evilly: "When it came to using the choice of electric or manual, we conducted a lottery, and Mark was lucky to win the more convenient and faster electric one, although we deeply regret this, but we can only reluctantly accept this result." It's like once the game is over, you can't change the score if you have any doubts. So, Mark, I'm going to say...... Today's show is done, please remember to buy lottery tickets, your luck is too good! Come, please give the shaver a close-up first, today it is the protagonist. ”
The camera obediently zooms in, giving the electric shaver a close-up of 30 seconds, showing the shaver's appearance from all angles, like a direct TV shopping ad...... It's so clear that you can even see the sign clearly. At the same time, a banner was displayed at the bottom of the screen: Gillette - Men's Choice!
Seeing this, Tang En, who was in front of the TV, couldn't hold back any longer, and looked up and laughed.
He laughed along with Lineker and Alain on the TV. Hansen, as well as ...... At this moment, all the Nottingham Forest fans in front of the TV, and countless spectators.
"Thanks to Gillette, who provided special sponsors for this event, this special shaver will be auctioned off at the end of the show, and audiences can call 09011_11_44_00 or text the auction from now on. Over the years, later in his career, Mark. Hansen appeared in front of us with such a beard...... "The picture is very timely when Khansen played for Liverpool, and the beard above his lips is quite eye-catching. "I think you must be tired of it, right? Let's talk to Laurenson's team-mate Alan at Liverpool. What did Hansen say? ”
The camera pans to Hansen, who answers the question in a serious manner: "Well, that's right...... Because there are a lot of bearded people in the team, like Souness...... We often get confused. When you see a bearded man coming towards you from afar, and you wave and say, 'Hey, Mark! How was the evening? When you find out that person is Grimie (graeme_souness), do you know how embarrassing it is? ”
Lineker was already laughing on the table, and one of the main characters, Mark. Laurentian sat between them with a dry smile, Donn believed that he must be on pins and needles, but as a victor, he felt that it was refreshing to see it.
Shania doesn't understand why Don is so interested in a man's beard, so Don tells her about the bet he made with Laurentian in the media, and Shania is also excited to hear the story, shouting "Uncle Tony, you're so bad" while expecting Laurentian to shave his beard himself.
After the two hosts finished joking with Laurenson, Lineker took out a pair of white gloves and put them on himself, and then solemnly unpacked the razor. And Laurentian on the side has long been "looking at death as home", quietly waiting for his ending.
When the shaver is taken apart, Lineker puts the battery on it, pushes the switch, and close-ups the TV footage.
"Please note that this is a genuine Geely electric shaver with a smooth and sharp blade, and it is safe, with a veneer design and ergonomic ...... It's definitely not a movie prop and you can buy it in any store. But scratch off Mark. Mr. Laurenson's beard, this one-of-a-kind, is highly collectible! So, what are you waiting for? What are you waiting for? Call now to order...... Uh, let's bid! ”
With that, Lineker handed the razor to Laurenson.
All the viewers in front of the television were attentive, and they seemed to hesitate when they saw Laurenson get the razor, and then he stretched the razor above his lips. Lineker on the side thoughtfully held up the mirror for him. Hansen is waving the flag and cheering.
The scene was so funny that Shania rolled on the couch laughing, and Don laughed loudly, but his eyes never took off the TV screen.
When the razor came into contact with Laurentian's beard, the TV slowly played the famous Italian blind singer Andrela. Bocelli (andrea_bocelli) and the famous soprano Sarah. The classic song "Farewell Moment" (time_to_say_goodbye) sung by Brightman (sarah_brightman) pushed the atmosphere to **! It's a classical-style song, with the beautiful sounds of two world-class singers, paired with the help of Mark. Laurenson's solemn and solemn expression gave rise to a sense of how solemn and solemn, but incompatible with the theme.
At this point, everyone who watched the episode of "Today's Event" in front of the TV was laughing - including Don and Shania, of course.
Don even laughed out of tears, and he wiped his eyes: "I love this song, from now on...... Ha ha! ”
At the same time, the price of the audience bidding on the bottom of the screen has been in the triple digits from the initial five pounds - the latest bid is one hundred and forty-one pounds, which is an exaggerated price for an electric shaver, so the number has not changed for a long time.
Shania found out about this, and then made a playful suggestion to Donne: "Why don't you buy it yourself as a souvenir?" Uncle Tony? ”
Tang En was stunned for a moment, then smiled: "This is really a good idea!" He pulled out his phone, dialed the hotline number, and after following the voice prompts, the system told him to enter the bid amount.
Here, Don hesitated for a moment, and then decisively entered: three thousand pounds!
For a razor, three thousand pounds is offered, which is almost unthinkable! But Don thinks it's worth it, it's like the loot he got after defeating his opponent, he can't buy it with any amount of money, what if the price is low and is surpassed by others? He also didn't know if he could repeat the bidding, what if he restricted one person to only one bidding in order to prevent malicious bidding?
It's better to just make a high price and let others know the difficulties and retreat. Besides, as long as it's what I like, I don't care how much money I spend.
Two minutes later, the latest price was displayed on the TV screen - £3,000!
The auction price appeared at the bottom of the screen every ten minutes, and it was the same every flash since the figure of 3,000 pounds came out, and it didn't change again until the end of the show.
When Laurentian kept his promise and shaved his beard, Lineker and Alain. Hansen praised his new look from the beginning to the end of the show. To be honest, Donn also felt that the shaved Laurentian looked more energetic and stylish.
It was not more than ten minutes after the end of "Today's Competition" when Tang En received a call from the program team to confirm his bidding information, obtain his contact information and address, and then send him the razor after he paid.
On the other side, the three of Lineker, who finished the show, sat in the studio, packing up their things and chatting at the same time.
"Mark, I'm not kidding, I'm serious - you're really much more handsome than you used to be when you've shaved your beard!" Lineker said with a smile.
Laurentian looked outside at himself in the mirror and raised an eyebrow: "Maybe." ”
Alan. Hansen held down his headphones to listen to something, then he took them off and said to his two partners: "The latest news, we have set a record for the highest ratings in the same period of the five channels. Mark, well done! ”
Everyone laughed.
"There is one more piece of news...... Do you know who ended up shooting that razor? ”
Lineker shrugged: "It's not going to be Tony. Donn, right? ”
Hansen nodded: "Gary, you guessed it right, it's him!" Our editor has just contacted the auction winner and has been given his contact details and name: Tony, 13 Branford Garden Street, Wilford Borough, Nottingham, Central Midland. Dawn. Three thousand pounds, confirmation of payment. ”
Lineker and Laurentian looked at each other in surprise.
Hansen was pleased with their performance and smiled, "It seems that ...... We'll have a lot more fun in the Premier League next season. ”
