Chapter 102 Trick 92 Big Scoreboard in the Sky

The little guy has to grovel.They have to show respect for the great.If you are a small character today, you have to take the initiative to express your willingness to meet in the office of the big man, pay the bill in a timely manner when eating in the restaurant, and respect the precious time of the big man.If the little character doesn't pay enough respect to the big man, he won't even be able to eat mud with his head on the ground, but will disappear from the big man's eyes, and he won't even be able to bark again. The real thing happened to my friend Laura, who developed a new healthy drink. (Remember her story in Instant Replay?) The last time we mentioned Lola, she blew up her chance to work with supermarket giant Fred.Laura kept occupying Fred's time with such trivial things as the house number and the lack of water in the ballpoint pen, making Fred wait on the phone.

I haven't said the worst part before.Fred asked Lola to send a drink sample without saying a word, and Lola dropped another bomb.She actually asked Fred which courier company he should use.Fred must have meant FedEx, because I heard Laura say, "This healthy shake of mine has to be refrigerated. Does FedEx have a refrigerated truck?" At that moment, Luo La used the telephone line in his hand to kill the great business opportunity.She shouldn't bother the supermarket king with trivial things like express delivery.In fact, Laura should be grateful, and if necessary, even hold the drink sample herself, and walk humbly to the door of Fred's supermarket.Lola was apparently completely oblivious to the big scoreboard in the sky.The score that day was, "Fred is far out and Laura is still at zero."

Natural winners do a quick mental calculation before they put their hands on paper, put their hands on a computer keyboard and start typing, or reach out to shake someone's hand. "Who can benefit most from each other's relationship? What has each side done recently that deserves each other's respect? What can I do to even it out?" Big scoreboards in the sky aren't just for malls.Scoreboards can also be found if loved ones and friends look carefully over each other's heads.And, like the stock market, these scoreboards go up and down every day.If you get into trouble, you have to pay a little more to make up for those who didn't get into trouble.To keep the bond alive, constant attention must be paid to the big scoreboard in the sky.

I met a nice guy at a conference a few months ago. His name is Charlie.We're talking about each other's favorite foods.His favorite homemade? Fettuccine with pesto sauce, I told Charlie I was good at making pesto sauce.Such a coincidence made me want to invite him to my house for dinner. "Great," he replied.So we made an appointment on the Tuesday of the next week at 7:30. In the afternoon of the big day, I started to get ready.The cuckoo clock on the wall reminds me of my progress all the time. At 5 o'clock, I rushed to the store to buy pine nuts. At 6 o'clock, when I got home, I hurriedly grinded perilla and garlic. At 7 o'clock, I start folding napkins, setting the table, and pulling out brand new candles.Oops, it's too late.I hurriedly changed clothes and tidied up my grooming.When the cuckoo clock struck 7:30, everything was ready.

An hour passed, and at 8 o'clock, my friend still didn't show up.Well, open the wine first and get some air.Another hour passed. At nine o'clock, Charlie was nowhere to be seen.The cuckoo on the wall called 9 times, as if scolding me for being stupid.I'm starting to believe that the cuckoo on the wall is right.Charlie obviously won't be here tonight.I was released as a pigeon. The next morning, Charlie called and offered a half-hearted apology and a somewhat far-fetched excuse.His car broke down. "Ah, I'm so sorry." (I was about to ask him, "Have you been taken to another planet by the Martians? Don't you have a phone to call?" But I held back.) He sounded contrite , I had already planned to forgive him.Then he actually asked the next question.

He's clearly completely oblivious to the big scoreboard in the sky, and instead of proposing to eat pesto at a fancy Italian restaurant, he actually asks me, "So when are we going to eat at your place again?" Never even think about it, Charlie.

When two people get along, there must be a scoreboard above their heads to show the ebb and flow of power on both sides.The numbers on the scoreboard are constantly changing, except for one rule: the side with the lower score must pay respect to the side with the higher score.If you break this rule, you have to be sentenced to be out of the game, and you will be out of the game forever.
