Gianlucaa package dealer originally from Friuli Venezia Giulia, was the competitor at the center of the episode Your business aired yesterday, Wednesday 8 May 2024, in the access prime time of Rai 1. Accompanied by his father Luciano, a characteristic gentleman with a pair of competition handlebar mustache (“I participated in the Mustache Olympics in Austria, I came second”, he revealed to Amadeus), Gianluca was the protagonist of an evening full of pathos, which ended with an excellent winnings of 38 thousand euros. Here’s how it went for her.
Affari Tuoi (8 May), Gianluca’s match
Born and raised in Malborghetto Valbruna, a small village of around a thousand inhabitants in the province of Udine, Gianluca is a bank employee and started his game by fishing pack 14, a number not particularly significant for him. Ready to go and immediately took a positive road, with a few “reds” skipped and all of them minor. After an initial package exchange offer (rejected), the doctor put a series of attractive proposals on the table: 44 thousand euros, 30 thousand and 20 thousand euros, all rejected by Andrea who explained: “I’m here to play, so I won’t stop”. Left with 4 shots to go with two blue and two red packages, including the dream prize of 300 thousand euros, the Friulian banker was offered another offer: 1 shot or 31 thousand euros. “Dad, what are you saying?” he asked the parent, who replied frankly: “I would take them and go home. You see them in the bank, I don’t”, words that sparked laughter from the audience and an amused reaction from Amadeus: “Dad said 2 words in 46 minutes!”.
So, the competitor launched into a long one reflection and he turned to his father again, as if wanting to convince him to risk another shot: “I’m tempted, I’d like to continue, it’s just a game. Have you changed your mind? The responsibility is still mine. I brought you here for support” , he told the parent, without however affecting his granite certainty regarding what to do with the match: “I remain of the idea of take them home (the money offered, ed.)”. In the end, Gianluca rejected the offer, deciding to continue the game.
Gianluca wins 38 thousand euros (thanks to dad)
With the next roll, the competitor drew 5 thousand euros, thus remaining with three parcels: 300 thousand euros, 0 and 100 euros in the game. Then he received a final proposal from the Doctor, slightly higher than the previous one: 38 thousand euros. “We are in the middle ground. I don’t ask you what you will say because you already do” he said turning to his father, who jokingly told him he snatched the check from my hands pretending to put it in his pocket. After a long reflection, and to the joy of his father, Gianluca finally decided to accept the final offer, collecting the money. His choice was rewarded because they were barely there in his package 100 euros.
Your business, social media gone crazy for Luciano
It ended in celebration, therefore, with Amadeus underlining Luciano’s importance “in the economy” of the match by joking with his son: “I’ll give dad the money!“. And the celebrations also took place on social media, where the episode was highly commented also thanks to the iconic figure of father Luciano who, with his magnificent handlebar mustache and his direct and slightly gruff manner, won everyone over. written: “The father didn’t say a word but he had a huge impact”, or: “The gentleman is clearly reviewing the calendar, if the son refuses he has the saint ready to pull”, and again: “In my opinion he wants him to accept because he got tired of being there yourbusiness ”. Furthermore, there were many memes dedicated to him on the web, as well as comparisons with historical or fictional characters: “What is Jinpachi Mishima doing in yourbusiness ”, wrote one user referring to his resemblance to a character from the Tekken series. And another, however, noticed a double similarity: “Luciano has the appearance of Umberto I of Savoy and the voice of Iginio Massari“.
