Chapter 234: Occupational Diseases
One by one, all the racehorses participating in the race entered the fences lined up with horses. The riders sitting on top of their respective racehorses also gathered their concentration.
They were only waiting for a signal to sound, and once the fence gate opened, they would charge straight out. At that moment, the spectators’ emotions would be ignited and detonated.
They can’t help but shout “Charge!” and “Go!” at the racehorses in the racecourse for which they have placed bets. Even if they know it’s useless, they can’t dampen their enthusiasm.
The race began, and the horses ran wildly around the track. The dust kicked up by the horses’ hooves was not big, but it was clearly visible.
At this time, Masayoshi Kishimoto, Takayuki Nanno, Kazuya Takahashi, and Mirei Sakai all coincidentally picked up their binoculars with both hands and placed them in front of their eyes.
They stood in front of the floor-to-ceiling glass window, and the two black eyes within their orbits were all moving together as the track of the racehorses in the arena.
Rie Sakai was not at all interested in that one of theirs, still sitting elegantly on top of the couch, holding champagne instead of red wine in her right hand.
She was sipping alone, completely confused as to why the men were so passionate about horse racing. As for her own sister, she could see that Mei Ling was actually not interested in horse racing at heart.
The reason why the other party would show some positivity and enthusiasm was to cater to the men’s interest on the one hand, and to show that she was different from herself on the other.
It didn’t take long for the first race to be over. Masayoshi Kishimoto, Takayuki Nanno, and Kazuya Takahashi had all lost money. They slowly lowered their binoculars from in front of their respective eyes.
“For the first time, we are all inexperienced. Losing belongs to something that is more than normal. We have to learn from our failures before we can win.” Justice Kishimoto smiled and said.
“For the next game, what are you guys going to buy? And what do you think?” Takahashi Kazuya sidled up and started discussing with his two hairdressers saying.
“I’ll continue to buy the same number. All bets are based on feelings.” Takayuki Nanno said as he felt that there was no pattern to it.
Masayoshi Kishimoto held the binoculars in his left hand, stroked his chin with his right hand, and said, “In fact, there is still a certain amount of skill involved in betting on horses.
At the very least, it’s more about the accumulation of experience over time than Pachinko. You have to understand horses, study them, and be able to analyze them.”
“Aiya mama, said as if you really know. You’re still losing just like the rest of us.” Nanno Takayuki blurted out.
“Although we lost, we gained a little bit of experience in defeat from it, and it’s a small step forward for winning is the future.” Masayoshi Kishimoto perked up.
“I finally understand why you’re the boss and I, Tongheya, can only work for you. Even when you’re painting a big pie, you speak in an extremely encouraging and provocative manner.
If we follow you, then we will definitely reach the other side of the shore of success. Even if there are setbacks and failures in the middle of the journey, we have to move forward with firm conviction. Every setback and failure, that is a test for us.” Nanno Takayuki said seriously.
“Takayuki, you just overthink things. That’s why you’re prone to insomnia. I wouldn’t be like you at all. All I know is, just follow the right person and follow.” Takahashi Kazuya laughed a little and said.
“From a management perspective, this is what you call a following business strategy. One of the most typical cases is coach (Coach), a brand of goods.
In fact, it is not considered a luxury brand, at most it is a second or third line international famous brand. Why is it mistaken for a luxury brand by many people?
That’s because coach has adopted a following business strategy. It opens all its stores in the neighborhood of luxury stores such as LV, Gucci and Hermes.
The price of goods sold in Coach stores is naturally much cheaper than that of LV and other international brands, which creates an illusion for some people.
Since the stores that are open together are all luxury stores, why do you have to go and buy the expensive ones? Masayoshi Kishimoto spoke eloquently.
“Aren’t you going too far? We’re currently betting on horses, it’s not like we’re running a management operation. It’s not easy to come out and relax, so you shouldn’t commit an occupational disease.” Nanno Takayuki calmly said.
“From a certain perspective, both horse betting and management operations have similarities on top of each other. The good thing about following a management strategy is that even if you don’t know enough and aren’t specialized enough, you’re still able to give yourself an advantage.
If we have a horse betting expert here, we will follow him to place bets and buy, and that’s it. At the very least, the winnings would be much greater than what we have now.
However, one of the weaknesses of human nature that needs to be overcome is the tendency to fall into self-subjectivity. My judgment is right, his judgment is wrong.
I want to stick to my point of view, even if it is wrong, but also their own grasp of their own destiny. On the surface, the followership strategy looks as if it has no subjectivity, but in reality, it doesn’t.
It’s not that simple to really apply it. There is a Chinese idiom called Xiao Gui Cao Sui, which is also about the followership management strategy.” Masayoshi Kishimoto explained and illustrated.
“Brother Justice, you are so knowledgeable! From today onwards, I am your little fan girl.” Sakai Meiling had never thought that she would be able to talk about so many things from horse betting.
Masayoshi Kishimoto’s right hand slashed at the top of her head and said, “If you don’t get into Keio University, from now on, there won’t be any more of this kind of good things to bring you out to play.”
Sakai Mirei covered one of the places he had slashed with his hand knife with both hands and beamed up for a defense, “I call this combining work and rest.”
“You three talk a lot. In the next match, it’s still the same loss.” Sakai Rie coldly interjected.
“Can’t you say something nice? You’re happy in your heart that we lost?” Justice Kishimoto argued.
“Men become bad when they have money, and the richer they get, the worse they become. If you guys lose money, then you’ll have less girls to scourge. On the contrary, if you guys win money, you will definitely go and scourge more girls.” Sakai Rie said with reason.
“You just happen to say the opposite. If it’s an ordinary man, this kind of situation you’re talking about would indeed occur. The lower they are in the social hierarchy, the more carnal fulfillment they generally need.
But elite men don’t. If you eat meat every day, do you still crave meat? Only when people like them lose money, they will go to the trouble of more girls.
When they win money, the opposite will happen less. The reasoning is simple, when one is spiritually satisfied, there is no need to go to her people to seek a spiritual above.” Masayoshi Kishimoto said meaningfully.
