Chapter 27 The First Pot of Gold
…
The first thing Guo Shouyun did when he drove back to the hotel was to open his Swiss bank account online. Sure enough, the original account of only a hundred thousand dollars has now become more than ten million. Moreover, more funds are coming into the account one after another.
"awesome!"
Guo Shouyun looked excited and waved his fist again to celebrate.
In order to reduce the risk, he invested 80 million US dollars in more than 20 gambling websites this time, plus online and offline betting, even if the British part of the gambling tax is deducted, he will make a lot of money. As for whether it will be manipulated by the dealer, he is not too worried. Compared to my own $80 million. Formal offline betting around Europe's annual Champions League final, which is the hottest year in the world, coupled with larger outside betting, has rolled over a huge sum of more than 40 billion US dollars. And the annual scale of European gaming has reached an astonishing 270 billion to 689 billion US dollars! In comparison, Guo Shouyun's $80 million is not even a small shrimp in front of many predators.
Because he was too excited, Guo Shouyun fell into insomnia unexpectedly at night. However, a night of insomnia is really nothing compared to the rich harvest.
From the end of the game to the next three days, Guo Shouyun's income was basically all accounted for. The only thing he had worried about before, the refusal of payouts from underground gaming sites, did not happen. As long as the money he won, it all went into the account he secretly opened in a Swiss bank safe and sound.
However, because different betting sites and companies have slightly different odds on the outcome of the game, the profit part is still somewhat different from Guo Shouyun's previous expectations. Not less, but more than $20 million.
"$265 million!"
This is Guo Shouyun's total income after deducting part of the gaming tax paid to the British Revenue Agency.
And, because it's about to pay Google $80 million. Therefore, the 80 million bank loan he used as the principal was not included this time. Otherwise, he has $345 million at his disposal!
"After struggling for more than two months, I finally earned the first pot of gold in my life!"
Guo Shouyun remembered that from the moment he was reborn, he had been constantly improving the plan of the "white wolf with empty gloves", and now the plan has finally been successfully realized. Looking back on the exhaustion of the past few months, I can't help feeling emotional!
But in addition to being happy, there is one more thing that worries him.
This money, except for the UK and Canada portion, is not subject to gaming tax on revenue generated on gaming sites in the rest of the European countries. Tax evasion and evasion are illegal in any country. Although everyone is playing like this now, in order to avoid possible troubles, he still needs to think carefully about how to use the funds.
"Dong dong...!"
Just then, there was a sudden knock on the door.
After closing the account and locking the laptop, Guo Shouyun opened the door and looked at Christopher Ritter who appeared outside the door. Not only was he surprised, he said, "Didn't you call to explain that you will only be back?"
After speaking, Guo Shouyun let him into the room.
"The merger negotiation went smoother than expected, and it has now ended ahead of schedule. So I came back early to see the situation on your side."
Guo Shouyun poured a glass of water and put it in front of Christopher.
"thanks!"
"Looking at you, the acquisition was successful?"
"Well! For £8 million, we bought all the assets of Walker Publishing!"
Walker Publishing is an American mid-range publishing company that publishes adult nonfiction, mystery and children's books. It is the third echelon in the American publishing industry.
"This is the contract, take a look at it!"
Guo Shouyun took it, took it in his hand and carefully examined it, then nodded.
"By the way, before I came, I had already instructed the company's editorial department and marketing department to start preparing for the publication of your three novels. If all goes well, it will be officially launched for sale in a week."
"Chris, it seems that you are much better at being a publisher than a publisher!" Guo Shouyun laughed.
"Hehe, I'm also very fond of my new position! By the way, how are you doing on Rowling's side?"
"Don't worry, it's basically done! However, there is still a little lack!"
Looking at Guo Shouyun's gestures and expressions, Christopher thought for a while, then said condensedly, "Neil Murray?"
Guo Shouyun nodded.
"Tomorrow I'll go to London and find you a fake girlfriend to reassure Neil!"
"No need. I've already found a candidate myself!"
"Oh? Where?"
Christopher said with interest.
"You'll see you tomorrow!"
"You bastard, you're still playing mystery! But since you said so, let's go tomorrow. I'll go back to rest first, fly from New York to London, and then transfer to Essex. It's not an easy journey!"
"Then rest early! I won't wait for you for dinner!"
"Um!"
Guo Shouyun, who had booked a hotel for Christopher in advance, sent him out of the room.
"The problem of funding is solved, and then it's time to show off!"
Looking at the darkening night outside the window, Guo Shouyun's eyes flickered with brilliance.
…
Early the next morning, Guo Shouyun turned on his computer and sent Molly Bevan an email. Guo Shouyun had known her email address since the girl repeatedly asked him whether he really knew Rowling through email a few days ago. Of course, even if she doesn't take the initiative to contact her, Guo Shouyun can find the contact information of the other party through her own hacking technology.
"Jingle Bell…!"
Not long after, Guo Shouyun's newly bought mobile phone rang.
Looking at the strange call above, he smiled slightly and basically guessed who the other party was.
"Hello, hello? Is that Miss Bevin?"
After a while of silence, a crisp, hesitant voice came from it.
"Are you really going to visit Ms. Rowling today?"
"Of course, I'll go with Christopher. By the way, Christopher Ritter is my co-manager with Rowling!"
"You said in the email that you can take me with you...!"
"no problem!"
"real?"
"Of course! ... But can you do me a favor?" Guo Shouyun said.
"What are you busy with?"
"That's it. Ms. Rowling has a boyfriend named Neil Murray, who is a professor at the University of Exeter Medical School. In the past fortnight, I have often asked Ms. Rowling for some writing encounters. The question may have caused some misunderstandings to Professor Neil. So, I want you to pretend to be my girlfriend to clear up this misunderstanding. It's as simple as that."
Listening to the silence over the phone, Guo Shouyun did not speak in a hurry.
"I can help you, but I also have one condition!" Molly Bevin said after a while.
"you say?"
Guo Shouyun was shocked and said quickly.
"I want to paint a painting of Ms. Rowling and I want to get her autograph!"
"No problem, I can help you!"
"real?"
"Of course! Wrap it on me!" Guo Shouyun said to himself.
"thanks!"
"You're welcome, we're helping each other. Oh, by the way, I'll pick you up at 9 this morning?"
"Okay. But don't come to the bar. I'm afraid Dad will be unhappy when he sees it." After a pause, "Well, at 8:50 I'll be waiting for you on the east side of the intersection of Rose Street and Carr Street!"
"Understood. ... This is your mobile phone number, right?"
"Um!"
"Then do you have ICQ or MSN?"
"I have MSN!" Molly Bevan visibly hesitated.
"Tell me your account and I'll add you!"
"no!"
"Why?" Guo Shouyun frowned.
"I don't trust you!"
"Hey, Molly, are we friends anyway? Isn't it normal for friends to leave contact information for each other?"
"We've only met once. But maybe after today, we'll be friends! Goodbye!"
Listening to the blind tone from the phone, Guo Shouyun smiled lightly, "This chick is quite difficult!"
Checking the time, he dialed Christopher again.
"Chris, wake up!"
"Bruce, I'm already up, I'm taking a shower, I'll come to you later!"
"No. See you in the restaurant downstairs!"
"All right!"
After the phone call, Guo Shouyun simply cleaned up. After taking the prepared things, pushed the door and walked out. Came to the restaurant downstairs, after ordering two breakfasts, it didn't take long, Christopher Ritter walked down from above.
"After breakfast, shall we go see Rowling?"
Christopher asked.
Guo Shouyun nodded and handed over the prepared manuscript.
"Look at it, I just wrote it!"
"You finished another novel?"
Christopher was shocked, then surprised.
"Well! I just finished writing it the day before yesterday!"
"Let me consider!"
Without eating, UU Reading www.uukanshu.com Christopher picked up the original manuscript and read it.
"Declaration of Independence for National Treasures? ... Is this a series of novels about treasure hunting?"
"Yeah! I should write about seven books!" Guo Shouyun nodded.
He has seen three "National Treasures" and four "Charlemagne Code", and the film ideas of the two series are very similar. The reason why the latter did not get the box office of "National Treasure" is mainly because the German film market is too small. Guo Shouyun is going to move some of the episodes in "Charlemagne's Code" to the United States. Combined with the brain hole of the Chinese Internet treasure-hunting adventure novels he has read, he can definitely write a set of classic treasure-hunting novels no less than "Indiana Jones".
"Seven? Have you thought about the seven?"
Looking at Christopher's incredible expression, Guo Shouyun smiled.
"How is that possible. Except for this "Declaration of Independence", I have probably planned the main story line of the second "Templar Knights". For the time being, I only thought about what to write around, as for the outline and specific plot. , it's still blank!"
"You guy, what a genius!"
After examining Guo Shouyun for a moment, Christopher couldn't help but exclaimed.
He has never seen any writer who can have Guo Shouyun's creative speed and guarantee the quality of his work.
"Don't just compliment me, let's see how I wrote it first?"
Christopher nodded and opened the manuscript. The content that has been modified by Guo Shouyun is basically free of incomprehensible sentences and typos. The exciting and ups and downs of the plot quickly drew Christopher Ritter into it.
While Christopher was reading, Guo Shouyun finished his breakfast.
