Chapter 118 Why can they enter the semi-finals?Shameless! (Fifth update, please subscribe and vote monthly)
The Red Star Bar in Houhai suddenly became lively.

"Huo! This is so interesting!"

"This matter is also connected with the World Cup, which is fun!"

"What happened just now? Can someone explain it to me?"

"Anyway, we're talking about the World Cup, so we have to do a quiz. It's quite interesting."

Most of the people in the bar were watching football. Although Bai Shiqiu and Zhang Yadong also had many friends, the proportion was actually still small.

However, Bai Shiqiu and Zhang Yadong actually transferred this issue to the World Cup betting because of the music company's issues and the issue of contracted artists.

It should be said that Zhang Yadong is very smart. When he does this, neither party is at odds with each other. He knows Xu Shaojun very well.

Xu Wei is such a talented person. He has helped many people write songs and make music. However, he has been bored in Hongxing Production Co., Ltd. for so many years.

To be honest, if a big company came to give him a strong package and give him all kinds of hype, Xu Wei would have become popular a long time ago.

What does this mean?
Xu Wei attaches great importance to emotions. In Zhang Yadong's view, this is the difference between this man and Zheng Jun.

It was Zhang Yadong who poached Zheng Jun back then, spent money on him, and later sued Red Star. This operation was so fierce that it brought down Red Star, which was already in the limelight, and now it has sold the company to a kid.

Right now, Zhang Yadong is going to make the final harvest and bring Xu Wei over. As for the catcher in the rye, it's really just an addition.

Therefore, if you want to do this, you can't be too harsh on Red Star.

Zhang Yadong's original idea was to acquire Red Star. Wouldn't that be all right? In this way, his current Taihe Wheat Field could become even stronger and attract more funds.

But he didn't expect that he would be bought by a kid named Bai Shiqiu. Damn it... Zhang Yadong cursed in his heart.

So, turning the whole thing into a World Cup bet was a stroke of genius.

Zhang Yadong was very satisfied anyway, but where did he expect...

"Come on! Brothers! Young and old men! Do you want to come over and get involved?" Bai Shiqiu actually started shouting.

Anyway, he got up, so he might as well shout around in his bar.

"Hey! We're just buying lottery tickets! Let's do it together!"

"Yes! Come on, this is an intellectual game!"

"Isn't it just two yuan? Let's all join in."

Things have gotten bigger.

The most shocking thing about this is Qin Weiwei. This Sichuan girl has seen today that this guy Lao Bai is really talented. He is not afraid at all when facing a great master in the music industry like Zhang Yadong.

I don't dare to look at my boss... In fact, I was shocked before, but I didn't expect that the boss would bring a woman back, Mr. Zhou.

He's a big star, and from the looks of it, he's just hanging on to Lao Bai. Why is our boss so powerful?

Tan Weiwei now feels that Bai Shiqiu is definitely a person with great hands and eyes.

Bai Shiqiu didn't know what Tan Weiwei was thinking, but right now he was thinking about how he could make sense of this World Cup betting matter.

I do have some unclear memories of the 2002 World Cup, but the current guess is too simple for Lao Bai.

Today our country entered the World Cup, so people who know how to do business immediately came up with a good idea.In terms of sports betting, the World Cup football lottery is specially launched.

There are two ways to play this football lottery, one of which is the same as before, the winning and losing lottery, which means who wins and who loses. In the past, I guessed Serie A, but now I guess the World Cup.

In addition, a special gameplay is introduced, which is to guess the top eight and top four.

Who is in the quarterfinals and who is in the semifinals? These are two lottery tickets and two bets.

At this time, the group stage is almost over, the top eight have been sealed, and the top four are still available for purchase.

Bai Shiqiu tried his best to think and remember, the top eight... I can't remember it, after all, there are too many teams, but the top four is no problem!

Who are the top four?
Anyone who pays a little attention to football will definitely have a strong impression of the semi-finals of this World Cup, because among the semi-finals... there are!
I know what I should say.

The key to Zhang Yadong's method is to be reasonable. Whoever's reasoning is more powerful will impress Xu Wei.

So...

"Guess the top four."

"Right on my mind!"

The two people really met each other, and now, the bar started to boo.

"Who can the top four be?"

"It's not our Chinese team anyway."

"Aren't you fucking nonsense!"

"I think it has to be France, right?"

"This is a little bit suspenseful."

Everyone is talking about football, how can they be less interested?
Especially Bai Shiqiu’s friends.

"Lao Bai, um... are you sure?" Deng Chao started to ask.

"It's okay." Bai Shiqiu still can't be confident?

"What about France? I think France would be good." Deng Chao also gave an idea.The expression on Bai Shiqiu's face was wonderful, "Brother Chao, just play basketball with peace of mind, watch the NBA or something, and don't touch the football lottery."

Deng Chao was still competing, "What? Isn't this right? The French lineup is so awesome! And in the last group match tomorrow, Zidane will definitely be out and appear. Look at their lineup, Henry, Trezeguet, these are all top scorers, how dare you underestimate France?"

"..." Bai Shiqiu didn't know whether to laugh or cry.

It’s not that I underestimate them, I really want to tell Brother Chao that France only has one point more than our Chinese team in this competition.

But you can’t say this, just look at the French team’s lineup at this time, the top scorer in the three major leagues, the world’s best footballer, Zidane, who is currently the only one in the world, and a bunch of well-known stars, especially those who have retained the skills from the last World Cup and The main winning lineup of the European Championship.

It is really impossible to imagine that this team did not score a single goal in this competition and would go home in the group stage.

well?Comparing this, we can actually see that our Chinese team's performance was excellent. No one scored a goal.

Liao Fan also came over there, "Let me say it, Italy! Italy must have it!"

Another stinky chess player was trying to make a move. Bai Shiqiu couldn't help but think of the time when he was at the chess stall, frothing at the mouth and pointing out the country.

Bai Shiqiu replied directly, "The male model team will never win the championship. An ugly man must appear."

But there are still people who are not willing to give in.

"I think Spain is good! There are so many stars!"

"Brazil! There must be Brazil."

"Germany is definitely not good. Look at what they played. It doesn't look good. That...I think England is good, Beckham!"

One by one, they all turned into football experts.

Bai Shiqiu really blushed, these little friends were kind, but this stinky chess was played, fortunately he had a plan in his heart, otherwise he would definitely be ruined.

Zhang Yadong over there also wanted to laugh. In fact, he had a good idea why he came up with this method.

Although he is from the music industry, the World Cup has attracted too much attention. As a big celebrity, he has also attended many football programs and contacted several powerful football experts.

For example, Zhang Lu, nicknamed Zhang Hehe, may not look like a bad nickname, but he has real talent.

I asked about this matter, otherwise Zhang Yadong is not stupid, and why would he still talk sense?
Ever since, Zhang Yadong stood up. There were too many people now, so he had to say something carefully, "Everyone! If I choose the semi-finals this time, Brazil needless to say, anyone who doesn't choose them will be an idiot. After that, Germany , let me talk about the reasons here. The first one may be a bit unreasonable, but it is a fact. Germany plays very well in every competition. The second reason is that Germany’s goalkeepers are very good. Kahn, this is the best today. As we all know, a good goalkeeper is worth half of the team. As for the other two places, I think one of them must be the host country. I choose Japan. The level of Japanese football has improved very quickly in recent years. This is obvious to all. This time they are playing at home, so there is no reason not to enter the semi-finals. As for the other team, I chose Spain. The level of football in Spain has been very good in recent years. I am afraid you rarely watch La Liga. But La Liga is indeed very powerful. Their passing and reception cooperation in all aspects gives people a pleasing feeling. They may encounter Italy. I think Italy’s current situation is not very good, so Spain.”

They talked about all four teams, and also explained all the reasons behind them.

When everyone heard it, they all thought...is this person a musician?Football expert!

Clearly put off by the music.

Bai Shiqiu understood as soon as he heard that Zhang Yadong was well-prepared for his feelings. What he said was typical of Mr. Zhang's theory.

Mr. Zhang just likes Germany very much, and he will always boast about Germany in every competition. As for Brazil, wouldn't it be silly not to choose the top four for the Brazilian team's lineup this time?An obvious backup for the championship.

The key is that Zhang Yadong's choice is very reasonable, and the schedule issue is still taken into consideration.

Of the two hosts that can now be confirmed to qualify, Japan will face Turkey, and Turkey is participating in the World Cup for the first time. In addition, Japan’s football level has grown in recent years. No matter how you look at it, Japan will win.

The other is Spain. In terms of strength, it is indeed not inferior to Italy, and it has not produced good results for many years. Many people feel that Spain is not weak, so it has to eat dumplings.

However, Bai Shiqiu was full of confidence at this time.

He also stood up at that moment, as if he was confronting Zhang Yadong, "Brother Zhang is really awesome, he watches the football a lot."

Zhang Yadong's face was slightly red, "You're welcome."

In fact, he didn't understand much at all, he just listened to teacher Zhang Hehe's analysis.

Bai Shiqiu also smiled and said: "My four teams are also simple, Brazil, Germany, needless to say, the reason is similar to Brother Zhang, they must be ranked. But for the other top four, I think Turkey will beat Japan. The reason It’s also very simple. Turkey is much stronger than Japan. You should also know that most of Turkey’s players play in the Bundesliga. Since the German team can enter the semi-finals, the small German team Turkey should also be able to do so. In addition, it is better to use Brother Zhang’s reason is that the host country will definitely be able to enter the semi-finals, and South Korea will be the only one left.”

South Korea?

"Lao Bai, are you right? South Korea?"

"Yes! What they are going to encounter is Italy, and after Italy it will probably be Spain!"

"Old Bai, don't be stupid!"

My friends all come here to persuade me, because no one can imagine how South Korea can beat Italy?

Many spectators in the bar also thought this young man was crazy at this time.

"What's wrong with this guy?"

"Choose South Korea? Could it be that you are afraid of South Korea to this extent?"

"No, maybe he is Han?"

"Hmm, maybe... Oh~ He's so handsome, but he's so handsome. It's a pity."

These nonsense remarks are really unbearable.

But Bai Shiqiu just laughed and continued: "Everyone, the reason why I chose South Korea is not because I am Korean or afraid of Korea. The reason why I chose them is because I know them, they..."

Bai Shiqiu also said in a comparative tone: "Shameless! So shameless! In terms of sports and fair competition, the performance of Koreans can only be described as shameless! It's not just football, it's like this in many games, such as Skating. So, because I know their shamelessness, I chose them to enter the semi-finals! South Korea will definitely use various means to make their team enter the semi-finals!"

As soon as he said this... this was so weird, but I really wanted to applaud him.

　It’s the fifth update today, um... Hei Che is really a little tired, thank you all, Hei Che is going to take a rest and ask for support, thank you very much.
