MTL - The Son of Finance of the Great Age-Chapter 30 86 World Cup

  Chapter 30 Eighty-six World Cup

   "Zhong Sheng, are you really sure?"

  Land Rover held the money in his hand tightly, and said to Zhong Shi worriedly. What he held in his hand was the salary he had worked so hard to save for a year. Lu Rover usually doesn't spend much, and all the money he gets is deposited in the bank. Liao Chengde persuaded him several times to invest the money in the stock market, but Lu Rover just smiled. For such a risky thing, he couldn't believe it from the bottom of his heart. .

   It was already 1986, and it had been a year since Chung-shik came to Hong Kong last time.

  Since the last time Zhongshi made a fortune in the futures market, he has invested all the cash on hand in the RB stock market. Unsurprisingly, RB's fiscal policy and monetary policy developed exactly as expected by Zhongshi. A large amount of international capital flowed into RB. It also shows a thriving trend, and the land prices in Tokyo have repeatedly hit new highs.

  The money Zhong Shi and Liao Chengde invested in the RB stock market also made a lot of money. Coupled with the appreciation of the yen, both of them had about double their income, which made Liao Chengde even more convinced of Zhong Shi's ability to make money.

   Last time, Manager Luo, who was on a mission, wandered around Hong Kong for more than half a month. He learned about Liao Chengde's name and net worth from various financial magazines, and only then did he clearly realize Mr. Liao's status among Hong Kong businessmen. What puzzled him was why this famous Mr. Liao respected a child from a small county in the inland so much that he didn't even condescend to greet him in person?

   But it doesn't matter anymore. Ever since Liao Chengde took the lead in Jiangzhong Province and visited the investments in various places in Jiangzhong Province, all the leaders of the Provincial Party Committee have felt at ease. And his old classmate, Secretary Liang, also showed his face in front of the big shots. It is said that the No. 1 of Jiangzhong Province intends to arrange him to be the second in command in a certain prefecture-level city below.

  As the saying goes, if one loses, one loses, and one prospers. With the classmate relationship between Luo Zhiqiang and Secretary Liang, it is hard not to include him in this faction.

   After more than half a year of rest, Zhong Shi's family came to Hong Kong again. This is the first time in everything, and the following things are much easier to handle. This time it was summer vacation, even Zhong Xiaohui came along. However, Zhong Yi still stayed at Yenching University and was busy handling various related matters. After full preparation in the last academic year, he has completed his studies with excellent grades and applied for a postgraduate program at the University of Hong Kong as he wished.

  Universities in Hong Kong have already recruited postgraduates from the mainland in the 1980s, but it will take 20 years to recruit undergraduates.

  Zhong Xiaohui has successfully passed the high school in the county, which made Zhong and his wife very happy. You must know that Zhong Yi was admitted to Yenching University from the county high school.

  Zhong Jianjun vaguely knew that his youngest son had made a lot of money, but the exact amount was unclear, but being able to go to Hong Kong twice in less than a year was obviously not something ordinary people could do.

   This time Zhong Shi came to **, and he went to Macau for a while.

  Last year, he promised Liao Chengde that he would take down the 20 million bank debt. The reason why he dared to say this was because the World Cup coincided with 1986.

  The World Cup in 1986 was held in Mexico, South America. Thirty-two World Cup teams from all over the world fought each other after the group stage, and finally decided the king of the world.

  In this World Cup, the Argentine team from South America passed five hurdles and defeated six generals, and finally defeated West Germany in the final, winning the second Hercules Cup in the country's history.

And Diego Maradona also shined in this World Cup. Among them, he scored the "Hand of God" and the famous goal of scoring six players in a row against England, which completely established the The status of the champion.

Argentina and West Germany made it to the final of this cup. In the end, Argentina narrowly defeated West Germany 3-2. England striker Gary Lineker won the Golden Boot with six goals. .

  Zhong Shi is naturally aware of this result, but he dare not tell Lu Rover like this. For Land Rover, he undoubtedly feels a little guilty. Since this former soldier joined Liao Chengde, he has done his best. During a robbery of a gold store, he desperately blocked a bullet for Liao Chengde. Fortunately, the "big circle" who robbed the gold store was an old acquaintance of Lu Rover, so they showed mercy and spared Lu Rover and Liao Chengde's lives.

  Liao Chengde used to complain about Zhong Shi hiring such a person for no reason, and he was even more dissatisfied with putting him by his side. However, after going through such a cycle of life and death, he realized the importance of Land Rover. Liao Chengde asked Zhong Shi to transfer Land Rover to him in private, but Zhong Shi refused with a smile.

Liao Chengde, who still didn't give up, came up with the idea of ​​Land Rover's comrades-in-arms. In the past year, he asked people everywhere, and finally recruited three former comrades-in-arms of Land Rover, and together with Land Rover, he formed the "Four Donkey Kong".

"I found that there is a rule in it. Whenever the World Cup is held in South America, the South American team will win the championship. If it is held in Europe, then the European team will win the championship!" For Land Rover, although Zhong Shi I sent a lot of money to his hometown, but I have never been to Sichuan, so I always feel a little guilty. Since there is a chance to make a fortune this time, let's bring him along.

"and then?"

   Lu Rover scratched his head and asked puzzledly.

"Based on the present situation, there are only two teams in South America that can win the championship. One is the Brazilian team and the other is the Argentine team. We only need to bet on two teams, and there is a 50% chance of winning. .”

  Zhong Shi was not annoyed, and explained patiently. He still had to find a reasonable explanation for the certainty of the future, which made him very embarrassed.

   "Is that Brazil or Argentina?"

  Land Rover still looked like he couldn't believe it. For him, this kind of thing was even more unreliable than playing stocks.

   "This involves a little bit of luck! I found that Argentina fought England in 1982, which is what we call the Falklands Sea War. As a result, Argentina lost at home. The country was in bad luck!"

   "In addition to this, Argentina has repeatedly broke out internal strife before. It is said that the president of the Argentine Football Association Grondona is dissatisfied with the head coach Bilardo and wants him to leave get out of class. Do you know what this means?"

  As soon as Zhong Shi rolled his eyes, he whispered to Lu Rover.

  "Internal strife? When the great war comes, the generals will not get along with each other? This is a big taboo in using troops! It seems that the Argentine team can't be bought to win the championship!"

   Lu Hu frowned, and said to himself.

   "What an elm head!" Zhong Shi slapped his forehead, a little helpless.

"On the contrary, in ancient China, it was called 'a soldier must win'. Thinking about the star-studded Argentine national team, and they are all in their prime of life. It is said that those who play in Europe are very fond of the Argentine Football Association and Grondona. Resentment, isn't that a prerequisite for a toast?"

"But…"

"There is nothing wrong! I have already decided to invest 10 million on Argentina. Currently, the odds of Argentina are the most favorable, about 1 to 7. The other popular teams are only worse than Argentina. You can vote whatever you want You!"

   After talking for a long time, Zhong Shi couldn't help being a little annoyed seeing that Lu Hu's elm head hadn't opened up yet, and he didn't speak very politely.

   "This...this...if Argentina doesn't win the championship in the end, then the money is just..."

  Lu Hu asked Zhong Shi cautiously with a mournful face, and he could hear the dissatisfaction in Zhong Shi's words.

   "Damn, how can there be so many ifs! If you lose in the end, I will personally pay for your shortfall with my own pocket!" Zhong Shi said with some disdain as he snatched the money from Land Rover.

   Seeing that there was no room for turning around, Land Rover stopped worrying about it. He took a betting ticket and filled it out carefully.

They are betting on the periphery. In Hong Kong, football is called "Bo". It is gambling on football. Although it is illegal, under the rule of the British, ordinary Hong Kong people have also become interested in British football games. ** It naturally came into being, not to mention Macau, which is one of the world's three major casinos across the sea.

  The gambling industry in Southeast Asia is extremely developed. In Hong Kong, the "Mark Lottery" and gambling are legal. In Macau, gambling is even a major industry. It is very easy to bet on European gambling companies in Hong Kong.

  However, ** company received a bet of more than 10 million Hong Kong dollars, and was still a little surprised. Generally speaking, in order to spread the risk, gamblers will bet more or less on different teams, so that they will not lose their money. This gambler is either young and energetic or inexperienced. As for manipulating the results of the game, this is not within the scope of the ** company's consideration.

  Manipulating the results of the World Cup is almost as difficult as assassinating the President of the United States!

  A few days before the World Cup, large sums of gambling money have been remitted from Southeast Asia one after another. Apart from making a lot of money, the ** company is also carefully adjusting the various odds, hoping that it will always be the winner in the end.

  …

   Regarding the matter of **, Zhong Shi never told Liao Chengde from the beginning to the end. For the mature Liao Chengde, the less one knows about him, the safer it is for him. You know, Liao Chengde doesn't simply think that Zhong Shi is that kind of unborn genius or something.

  Furthermore, Zhong Shi also had his own considerations. Apart from tying Liao Chengde to his chariot, he also had to maintain enough mystery so that Liao Chengde would not have two hearts. As the saying goes, "You must not have the heart to harm others, and you must not have the heart to guard against others." This is what is being said.

  As expected, after more than a month of competition, the Argentine team reached the top without any suspense, which allowed Zhongshi to rake in nearly 80 million Hong Kong dollars. (I hope that friends who like this book can recommend it and collect it, thank you)
