America: Starting with the acquisition of MGM

7 Chapter 7. Stud is a kind of wisdom

As the World Cup approaches, football craze is gradually rising in countries around the world, and even the football desert of the United States is no exception.

Football, which you couldn't see at all in the past, can now be seen occasionally played. After all, the United States is also a finalist.

But it was still just a spark, and even if it started a prairie fire, it did not catch up even after twenty years, and it became a retirement home for major players.

But the idea of ​​a nursing home seems inconsistent, because even if many stars are about to retire, they can still help the poor with technology in the Major League.

It was not until 2023 that the arrival of the old gold miner brought technological poverty alleviation to its peak.

However, although the public is not very interested in playing football, major gambling companies have already opened their markets.

Some of the 32 teams shortlisted this year are traditional powerhouses, such as Argentina, France, Italy, etc. France was the champion of the last World Cup and also won the 2000 European Cup. They came here to defend their championship.

There are also relatively weak teams, such as Saudi Arabia, Tunisia, Senegal, China, Nigeria, etc.

The odds of strong teams are naturally relatively low. For example, the favorite French team has a winning odds of 5:1, while Italy has a odds of 6:1.

弱队的赔率就夸张的很了，美国队夺冠赔率是166:1，突尼斯300:1，沙特500:1，华夏也是500:1。

In other words, if you buy China to win the championship, and China really wins the championship, it will increase 500 times in one month, and 100 million will immediately become 5 million. How many businesses in the world can be so profitable?

But there is also a problem with this method, that is, the process is too long, and it takes a full month to see the results.

And if the gambling company finds out the clues and uses outside tactics, there will be no place to cry.

That's why Eric sent Judy and four others to a big spinach country abroad. They couldn't catch a sheep and packed the eggs separately to avoid risks to a greater extent.

May 5st is the day when the World Cup starts. According to the schedule, the opening match is France versus Senegal.

Eric looked at the blue screen in front of him. He was a little uncomfortable with the simple web page screen. He was used to the Internet of later generations, and things from twenty years ago were indeed a bit incomprehensible.

Now Eric still uses a large-capacity computer. It's not that he doesn't have a laptop, but the laptop configuration of this era is not good enough. It is better to use a large-capacity computer at home.

"When I get rich, I might be able to invest in the Internet. It would also be good to buy a few stocks that are sure to make a profit without losing money as a long-term investment."

Although the Internet was not developed at the beginning of the world, the form of online gambling has already appeared, but there are many problems and great hidden dangers.

For example, many websites are phishing, hiding various Trojan horse programs. People in this era do not have much awareness of prevention, and there are many people who fall victim to them.

Therefore, compared to the Internet, telephone betting is more reliable.

After confirming that the schedule remained unchanged, Eric felt relieved and opened MSN, which is still the most popular online communication tool in the world.

Even in China, MSN dominated the world in 2002, and QQ had not yet risen.

Eric's fingers were tapping quickly on the keyboard: "Today's opening game, split bets on major companies, all with the highest limit, Senegal to win."

Since you want to play, it is natural to play short and fast Stud. The risk is high and the win is high.

If you win, it proves that the trajectory of the world has not changed. If you lose, it means that the future has changed.

So let alone football, even many movies that were originally huge hits may lose their pants.

In this case, there is no need for Eric to struggle. It is not bad to obey his father's arrangements and be a second-generation star.

Warren made a horrified look: "Senegal? Are you crazy? That's an African team. I checked and it's their first time entering the World Cup."

Billy: "The entire Senegalese team is worth less than the thigh of a French star. Brother, this is 1000 million US dollars. Don't be impulsive!"

Eric: "Listen to me, the French team's odds are 1:1.2, and Senegal's odds are 1:19. Don't forget the famous saying, buy football backwards, and the villa is close to the sea!"

Bordeaux: "Is this your money-making strategy?" Judy: "Hahaha, the girls in Brazil are so enthusiastic. I have finished placing my bets. See you in two hours."

At dinner time, Eric had no appetite and sat on the sofa with a bottle of beer, waiting for the game to start.

It was rare for my father to come home today. When he saw this, he came over and squeezed his shoulders hard: "My young man, what's wrong with you? You look very nervous."

"It's nothing. The World Cup is about to start. I plan to take a look."

"Really? I remember you were not interested in football before. You preferred ice hockey and dancing to this."

"Dad, college changes people and makes them interested in new things."

"That makes sense. I see that you have been staying at home these days. Have you found a way to make money?"

Eric glanced at him: "Don't worry, Dad, if something goes wrong, I will be at your mercy. I will take acting classes and learn basic knowledge. In short, I will follow your arrangements."

Charlie Cooper laughed loudly: "Don't worry Eric, when you get into this circle, you will fall in love with it. It is much more interesting than the financial industry."

I'm afraid even if Charlie Cooper was beaten to death, he wouldn't have thought that his son wanted to make a fortune by gambling. After all, he was a top student in finance. How could he not understand the inside story?

Now Charlie Cooper is just waiting to close the net, and even the bad mood caused by the poor effect of "Windtalker" has been diluted a lot.

On the screen, as the French team and Senegal team entered the game, the game officially started.

At the same time, countless people were also paying attention to this game. It can be said that the French team was shining with stars, and they were welcomed like a tsunami as soon as they came out.

Henry is the Premier League Golden Boot, Trezeguet is the Serie A Golden Boot, Cisse is the French Ligue 1 Golden Boot, and there is also a national treasure Zidane. The extremely powerful French team is favored by all media and fans. It is simply a matter of climbing down from Senegal. A piece of cake.

But then many people discovered that Zidane did not play, Pires also did not play, the engine was lost, and the French team's midfield was instantly weak.

Although they still had the advantage and repeatedly attacked Senegal's goal, several threatening shots all hit the goal post.

The messages on MSN were flashing like crazy.

Warren: "Oh my God, FUCK! The damn French guy is here again, who is that bald guy?"

Bordeaux: "Quickly defend, come back to defense. Are all these niggas fools? Why don't they come back to defense?"

Billy: "Shit! Senegal, hurry up and defeat these French colonists. Don't forget your history and kick them hard!"

Even Judy started gibbering: "FUCK! That guy with the pigtails is going to shoot again, my eye! It's the post, thank God!"

Bordeaux: "Can't that goalkeeper see his eyes? The goalposts are more useful than him. Can't his legs move?"

The four people were extremely excited. They were thanking and cursing each other, and they wanted to go up and play, even though they didn't even understand the rules, and they didn't even know any of the players.

Only Eric remained silent, for he was more excited than anyone else and was speechless.

On the screen, as Djorkaeff made a mistake in passing the ball, Senegal's core player Diouf suddenly broke through quickly and intercepted the ball, and then struggled to start sprinting.

The aging French defense could not withstand the impact at all. Diouf passed the ball, and Diop, who had already penetrated in place, struggled to kick. The love-hated ball rushed into the net, and Senegal scored!

Got $2 million!

　I don’t know if you all feel it. The more you are on vacation, the less time you have to write and read novels. Instead, you will find free time while working.
