Chapter 626 Interaction 2: Creating Surprises
I took a sip of tea and continued:
"Third, we should leverage our strengths and mitigate our weaknesses. Should we build a beach? We can, but it's not our focus. If people want to play on the beach, they should go to a real seaside.
So, the beach can be done, but don’t make it last for six or seven months.”
The audience didn't understand what I was saying for a moment. Qing Ruo said, "It refers to pregnancy. Six or seven months is too prominent."
The audience laughed with their hands covering their mouths. They were not quite used to my humorous "leader" speaking style.
Therefore, we will give up diving, parachuting and the like, and focus on developing camping, wild drinking, beach music festivals and the like.
This is called covering up the ugly and highlighting the beautiful, highlighting the strengths and avoiding the weaknesses."
The audience nodded.
"Fourth, innovative content. We don't have any unique mountains or rivers here, so we need to innovate the entertainment content. Let me give you an example. After the meeting, everyone should think about it and write down any strange ideas you have and submit them to Mr. Zhang.
This example comes from the fact that last night a young man who could do magic came to visit me, and I wondered if I could recruit him as an employee.
Qing Ruo turned her head and looked at me.
I said, "Why, I didn't wash my face?"
The audience laughed.
Qing Ruo said, "No. I'm wondering whether to recruit one person or a team."
"No need for a team, just two or three people will do. What's this kind of magic called? It's called close-up magic.
For example, you are a tourist. Suddenly someone comes up to you and wants to perform a magic trick for free. Would you be willing to do it?
The audience shouted: "Yes - we are willing to play more than one."
"Yes, we recruit two or three people like this. They just wander around the scenic area every day and join any large group they see.
The magician said: "Sir, let's play a game. Here is a deck of cards. After shuffling the cards, you look at a card and the visitor draws one. For example, it is the 9 of hearts."
As a result, he rolled up his sleeves and wiped his arms. Immediately, hearts and the number 9 appeared on his arms. You felt very surprised. But when you were still surprised, the magician left.
It doesn't cost money, you feel confused, don't you? "
Someone in the audience actually shouted, "Boss Wan, can you do it?"
I said, "See, your interest has been piqued. If we have more surprises like this, tourists will feel that visiting the island is worthwhile."
There are also some free projects. Do they think they are making money? "
The audience began to become obsessed with me. One by one, they forgot to answer.
I said, "We only need to pay a few people's salaries, but the tourists' experience is completely different, and there are surprises from time to time."
Ning Jing interjected: "Magicians can also ask tourists to sign autographs. Each group signs one person's name, and we pay them according to the number of signatures."
I nodded. "As you refine the details of these contents, you can develop a variety of assessment methods."
Qing Ruo said, "Yes. Mr. Wan was just talking about the direction."
I said, "This is so beautiful, so surprising."
…
I spoke for more than an hour in one breath and received rounds of applause.
After the meeting, everyone surrounded me and asked me to perform a magic trick.
That enthusiasm is really irresistible.
They didn't treat me as a leader at all - one was flirting with me, another was acting coquettishly, and another was pulling my sleeves - with only one goal: to get me to perform a magic trick.
There's no way, no wonder my mother didn't want me to come to an island full of women - if you don't flirt with her, she will flirt with you.
Qing Ruo said, "This is General Wan, not a magician."
These banshees should be more restrained.
Qing Ruo then said to me, "Turn the mineral water into wine for them."
Everyone cheered.
I said, "Just do the same thing as before. You guys wait here while I get ready."
I walked out and winked at Qing Ruo, and she followed me out.
When we got to the lounge, I said, "Go find a small bar of soap, a deck of cards, and a piece of paper."
After a while, she came in, closed the door, and said, "Can I take a look?"
"Okay, while the magician is on vacation, the island owner can come in."
After saying that, I sharpened the soap and wrote the King of Hearts on my arm.
Then he asked, “Can you see it?”
Qing Ruo said, "I can't tell."
I said, "We're ready. We can go in now."
When I entered, there was applause.
I kept a red king in my hand. I handed the card to Pan Yinlian and said:
"You shuffle the cards, any way you like."
She washed for a while, and then a tall girl next to her said, "Let me wash for a while."
After washing, she handed it to me.
I cut it and had already brought the King of Hearts in. It looked like it was cut randomly and showed it to them. I asked, "What is it?"
Everyone answered: "King of Hearts."
I lit the small piece of paper with a lighter. When it was halfway burned, I blew on it, and some black ash stained my hands. I said, "It's time to witness a miracle."
I rubbed my left hand against my right arm a few times and then released it. The words "King of Hearts" appeared on my arm.
Except for Qing Ruo, everyone else had their mouths open and couldn't close them for a long time.
I asked, “If you were a tourist and were met by a magician on the street, and after the performance he didn’t ask for much, not a penny, but only wanted to leave your name.
Will you sign?
After signing, he said thank you, and like an ancient knight, he carried a sword on his back, turned around and disappeared in the crowd. Are you surprised?
This is how we interact on our island. It's like we're walking into a maze. As for the interaction between tour guides and groups during your study tour in Thailand, Mr. Zhang and Mr. Ning will teach you about it later.
In short, we want to make Daughter Island a value-added island, giving tourists a unique tourism experience. I won't do any advertising; we want every tourist to become the spokesperson for Daughter Island."
There was warm and prolonged applause.
Several of them were probably newly recruited college students. After a brief discussion, they suddenly shouted in unison, "Boss Wan, we love you."
The crowd erupted in wild laughter.
I didn't laugh, but said, "I'm the first one to experience private customization. You guys will have to scream louder than this when you do."
Everyone laughed wildly again.
Qing Ruo said, "It's time to eat. President Wan will come to class regularly from now on."
…
Qingruo, Ningjing and Pan Yinlian accompanied me for lunch.
Everyone was very excited. Ning Jing asked, "How are we going to make beach music?"
I said, "I'm going to talk about this later. Since you asked about it, I wanted to give your management a heads up."
Qing Ruo said, "You say."
"You need to give two people a special ticket, which is a VIP card. How do you make this card? You need to make it like an ID card, which can only be used by these two people.
One is the president of the Upstate Photographers Association. The other is the president of the Upstate Musicians Association.
Needless to say, the Photography Association, if you give it a privilege, will organize photography enthusiasts from all over the country to come here.
As for the Musicians Association, I discussed with the association's president about organizing a beach music festival. That's how the Kenting Music Festival in Taiwan started. A group of music lovers love playing on the beach. Let them come, let them have fun, and then we can guide them to organize a music festival."
Pan Yinlian said, "General Wan just has a lot of ideas."
I said, "You need to strengthen your VIP department. Besides weddings and birthdays, there are some wealthy people who really come to experience private customization."
Qing Ruo asked, "Why didn't you talk about birthdays and weddings when you first discussed your plan with us?"
I smiled and said, "The construction project I'm talking about includes a hotel, a covered bridge, a heliport, and an outdoor lawn. I've taken all these basic facilities into consideration.
As for not talking about it, I'm afraid it will get out and others will follow suit. If I talk about it now, it's too late for others to follow suit. It's like lifting a veil; it should be lifted last."
Qing Ruo asked, "How many headscarves do you still have left to uncover?"
"There are still some. Since I've taken over, I have to make something different."
Qing Ruo said, "Come, let's use milk instead of wine to toast Master Wan."
