Celebrations in New Tuvalu, billed as the first post-apocalyptic carnival.
The end of the world refers to the year 2012 that just passed, and the first carnival is
It was because the scale of this celebration far surpassed any similar event in the world.
According to data from relevant agencies, the number of foreign tourists arriving in New Tuvalu on the first day of the celebration is expected to be 150,000. In the following seven days, although some people will leave, there will also be new foreign tourists at the same time. .
Calculated based on the number of newly booked direct flights to New Tuvalu from various countries and the pre-sold ferry tickets from New Zealand to New Tuvalu, the number of people participating in this celebration will exceed one million .
This compares with New Tuvalu's national population of just under 35,000.
Many foreign tourists who have booked relevant air tickets and want to participate in the event are very worried about the reception capacity of New Tuvalu, whether the so-called free food and drink can meet their expected standards.
Li Daniu also had corresponding worries. After preparing his new product launch conference, he called Burns and Castro.
"I don't need to remind you, you should also be very clear that this celebration is a moment to show the charm of our new Tuvalu to the world. Whether the tourism industry of New Tuvalu can reach the level I planned in the future will depend on This celebration has a direct relationship, so if there are problems that have not been resolved, there is a chance to make up for it by speaking up now."
Burns took the lead in answering: "All the preparations for the reception are based on the fact that there are 250,000 people at the same time. According to the current registration of tourists' entry and exit applications and the reservation of accommodation, the seven-day celebration Here, the number of people participating in the celebration activities in no day exceeded 250,000 people, and the highest peak is currently on the first day, which may reach 170,000 people."
Castro said: "Relevant performances and entertainment activities have also been prepared. We have invited 14 world-class singers, 21 famous bands, circuses, song and dance troupes, etc. In addition, According to different ways of celebrating festivals around the world, carnival areas and bullfighting areas have been set up..."
After listening to it, Li Daniu's first reaction was that the money spent this time was really too much.
Although there is a charge for accommodation, there are no professional hotels in New Tuvalu, only residential areas, so the charges are generally not high. One night stay in a room in a villa area only charges about 50 US dollars, while in a residential building The cost of staying in a room is only 30 dollars a night.
Such a small fee, after deducting the high-quality disposable items equipped in each room and the related linen washing costs, is not even enough for the staff's salary.
"How much has it cost so far?"
After hesitating for a while, Burns said, "One billion dollars, but the follow-up expenses are almost nothing."
"I don't blame you for spending too much money, because this is actually a hidden advertisement. Moreover, the tourists who came this time are almost all high-income people. These people, and their circle of friends, are in the In the future, we will definitely be able to provide more income for our new Tuvalu." Li Daniu put on a straight face and said: "However, if there are any problems that should not have occurred during this celebration, it will affect the future of New Tuvalu development, then I hope you two are ready to take on the relevant responsibilities."
Burns and Castro are two, one is responsible for the main reception work, and the other is responsible for integrating the resources of enterprises under the name of Li Daniu and providing entertainment for this celebration. It can be said that this celebration is The two of them did it.
After hearing Li Daniu's blatant threat, Burns and Castro cheered up, and at the same time saluted with one arm on their chests, shouting: "Swear to the death to complete the task assigned by His Majesty the King."
…
On the day before the official start of the celebration, there was a problem with Burns' reception.
"Your Majesty, this afternoon and evening, at least 30,000 people will arrive in our country, and according to the regulations of the celebration, the free food and drink can only be provided after twelve o'clock this evening. Now, there are already tourists here Request, let's start serving free food and booze now."
"Tourist request?" Li Daniu frowned and asked, "Is there any sign of riots?"
"Not yet." Burns had no idea that he had almost issued a military order in front of His Majesty the King before, but the day before the celebration started, there was a problem he hadn't expected, and he said with a sad face: "I Considering the dietary needs of foreign tourists who arrive early, all the service personnel who provide food and beverages have been arranged in advance, and the prices of food are also set at the lowest international level. But unexpectedly, some tourists even I don’t want to spend that much money.”
"Is someone deliberately picking things up among the tourists?" Li Daniu guessed maliciously, although the celebrations in New Tuvalu will not have an obvious impact on any country, but in fact, everyone The time and frequency of traveling abroad are planned. After participating in this celebration in New Tuvalu, many people will definitely give up some future travel plans. This has a certain impact on the tourism industry of some countries. degree of influence.
"That's not enough." Burns said: "Tourists are currently asking for free food spontaneously, and they have not made this request in groups."
After thinking for a while, Li Daniu said: "The rules set before must not be abolished. If only some tourists make requests, we will change the rules set before. Then, what will we do in the next seven days? If tourists find out, just ask If we are required to change the rules, then we will become very passive, and almost all reception plans may change. Even, in the future, when our new Tuvalu vigorously develops tourism, we will also be subject to such changes Impact."
Burns also understood this truth. He originally thought that according to Li Daniu's personality, he would definitely wave his hand, so he arranged for it to be free from now on, so he didn't dare to solve this problem on his own.
"You mean to stick to the plan you made before?"
"Of course." Li Daniu nodded and said: "Arrange people to appease the emotional problems of those tourists. If you have money, it's nothing to buy cheap food. If you really don't want to spend the money, you can play first, or It is to go back to their reserved residence and rest first, and then come out to eat for free after twelve o’clock. Our celebration activities are 7*24 hours, as long as someone can eat, then even if he eats and drinks for 168 hours, there is no problem .”
"Understood." When Burns was about to go out to deal with this matter, he was stopped by Li Daniu again.
"After twelve o'clock, the celebration will officially begin." Li Daniu said with a serious face: "I still want to tell you that there must be no safety accidents, food safety, public safety, and their property safety. Even, in When necessary, the peacekeeping force or our security personnel can restrict the personal freedom of some people who may cause problems."
"Your Majesty, please rest assured, if there is any problem, I am willing to apologize with death."
After Burns left, Ao Chuang reminded Li Daniu: "Your Majesty, on your eyebook, many people are discussing whether food should be provided for free now."
Ao Chuang is now responsible for supervising all the online news about Li Daniu. As long as there is a concentrated discussion or a high frequency, Ao Chuang will remind Li Daniu.
"So fast? It really is the Internet age."
Li Daniu asked Ao Chuang to pull out the relevant information, and found that some tourists who had arrived in New Tuvalu Even many of them were fans of Li Daniu, who were crazy @ him on the eye book, and these @ His information was discovered by many netizens who have been following the dynamics of Li Da Niuyan's book and this celebration, and then started a discussion.
"Ao Chuang, send me a message." Li Daniu thought for a while and said: "I always hope that everyone in the land of New Tuvalu, whether they are citizens of New Tuvalu or tourists, will not only abide by the The law must also adhere to morality and quality. There is no circle without rules, and no society without moral quality. Therefore, I have set up a citizen scoring system for New Tuvalu. In the next seven days, I hope that all people who come to New Tuvalu The most tourists can show their due qualities while carnival. Please remember that when you go abroad, you represent not only yourself, but also your nation and your country.”
This status does not indicate whether the free food supply will start in advance, but almost everyone who saw this post understood what Li Daniu meant.
"What His Majesty means is that you can come to play and follow the rules. Otherwise, get out."
"What His Majesty the King gave you for free is yours. Before it's free, you can't morally kidnap, let alone rob."
