"Okay, no problem." Wu Yong and Zhang Weikang nodded at the same time.
Xiao Yunhai laughed and said, "Mr. Wu, Mr. Zhang, are you two hardcore fans too? You actually left your work and came to London to watch the World Cup. "
Zhang Weikang said, "Our level of obsession is far less than Mr. Xiao's. You even sneaked into the football team as a substitute goalkeeper, and we can only watch from the outside. By the way, I haven't congratulated Mr. Xiao yet. He won 700 million US dollars in his first bet. "
Xiao Yunhai asked in surprise, "Mr. Zhang, how did you know about this?"
Zhang Weikang laughed and said, "Because Mr. Wu and I are the bookmakers for this World Cup. If we want to check if Mr. Xiao has bet, we just need to enter your name into the computer system."
Xiao Yunhai said, "I didn't expect you two to be bookmakers too. Are there many rich people in Hua Xia involved? "
Wu Yong nodded and said, "Yes. But most of them are remote controllers. Only Mr. Zhang and I, who are fans, will come to the scene. Mr. Xiao, Mr. David Steyr misses you very much. Before he came, he said that he must invite you over no matter what. "
Xiao Yunhai chuckled and said: "He's missing my money. I heard that this guy is the person in charge of this bet. Steyr Networks has such a big problem now, but he doesn't have time to take care of it. Could it be that betting is very profitable? "
Zhang Weikang said, "Anything related to gambling is very profitable. First of all, the bookmaker has the final say on the odds of the bet. It is calculated and guaranteed that there will only be profit and no loss. Secondly, regardless of whether you win or lose, you have to pay a 2% handling fee. For example, the total bet for this game is 630 billion US dollars. Not counting other things, just the handling fee alone is more than 12 billion US dollars. Of course, this is divided among us bookmakers, but as the person in charge this time, David Steyr can get 10%, which is 1.2 billion US dollars. The World Cup has a total of 64 games. Just the handling fee alone can make him at least 70 billion US dollars. The problem with the Steyr Networks was not too serious. It would not take long for him to recover, and it would not hurt his foundation. But now, he's earning real money. "
Xiao Yunhai said, "Damn, no wonder this guy values the World Cup so much. It turns out that there are so many benefits. Mr. Zhang, why don't you and Mr. Wu fight for this position? "
"Strength. We're not strong enough. CEO Wu and I represent the interests of many people behind us. Our combined capital can't even compare to Steyr Networks. How do you expect us to compete? Mr. Xiao, I think you can totally join this betting group. At the very least, you don't have to pay a processing fee, and you can even participate in setting the odds. With your financial strength and the support of Hua Xia's business community, you'll definitely have a huge say in it, "Zhang Weikang said.
A smile appeared on Xiao Yunhai's face as he said, "After hearing what you said, I really want to go and take a look. Wan Qing, are you going? "
Zhao Wanqing shook her head and said, "I'm not interested in these things. But I have to warn you, the risks of betting on football are very high. I don't object to playing a little, but every game must not exceed one billion USD. "
Xiao Yunhai gave a military salute and said, "Yes. I'll keep your words in mind. Mr. Zhang, Mr. Wu, why don't we go after dinner? "
Wu Yong said, "There's no need for that. They should be having a banquet at this time. If we go now, we'll be just in time. "
Xiao Yunhai nodded and said, "Okay, let's go now. Honey, you'll have to eat by yourself tonight. I'm going to meet those old friends. I'll be back at the hotel soon. "
Zhao Wanqing said, "Go do your thing."
The hotel where the rich people were staying was not far from the stadium. They arrived in less than ten minutes.
The decorations here were very luxurious. Just the chandelier inside was worth no less than 50,000 USD. It could be described as magnificent. If an ordinary person stayed here for a night, it would be enough to bankrupt them.
Under the lead of a slender British beauty, the three of them walked to the banquet hall.
Xiao Yunhai asked, "Have you booked this hotel? I think the security here is pretty good. "
Walking into the hotel, Xiao Yunhai saw countless cameras. There were almost no blind spots.
At the same time, tall and mighty bodyguards could be seen everywhere, standing guard at every three steps or so.
In just a minute, Xiao Yunhai saw no less than three teams of patrolling security.
Wu Yong nodded and said, "Of course. There are more than 50 super-rich people from all over the world living here. If something happens to their security, the entire world's economy will be greatly affected. "
Xiao Yunhai laughed and said, "Come on, I think they're just afraid of death. The richer they are, the more afraid of death. That's right. "
Soon, the three of them arrived at the banquet hall. There was a cocktail party going on inside.
Many beauties from all over the world served there with plates. Some rich people touched them from time to time, but they still welcomed them with smiles.
As a world-famous person, Xiao Yunhai's arrival immediately attracted the attention of many people.
As the person in charge, David Steyr was the first to welcome him and said, "Mr. Xiao, welcome."
Xiao Yunhai laughed and said, "Mr. Steyr, I haven't seen you for a few days. Your complexion seems to have deteriorated quite a bit."
David Steyr said, "That's all thanks to Mr. Xiao."
Xiao Yunhai deliberately sighed and said, "Mr. Steyr, I really don't know what to say about you. At the auction, I already reminded you not to broadcast the World Cup on the Internet for a fee. You just didn't listen. Look, things have come to this point. You've lost so much money for no reason. Even I feel sorry for you. "
David Steyr said, "Our Steyr Networks has encountered some trouble recently. We've been maliciously slandered by some shameless people. Our stock price has plummeted. Many people can't sit still and secretly buy our shares. Mr. Xiao, you should be one of them. "
Xiao Yunhai didn't hide anything. He nodded and said, "That's right. Of course, I wouldn't miss such a good opportunity to make money. However, your words don't seem to be accurate. Maliciously slandering refers to fabricating false things to frame the other party. And those things that have been exposed seem to be true, right? "
David Steyr's gaze was like a knife. He snorted coldly and said, "Whether it's true or not, don't even think about using my Steyr Networks."
Xiao Yunhai laughed and said, "I'm very clear about this. So, my goal is only to make money. When your stock price recovers, I'll sell it. Moreover, I can tell you clearly that there are at least three or four other companies that have the same idea as me. Maybe one of them is your good friend. "
David Steyr said, "Are you trying to sow discord?"
Xiao Yunhai shrugged and said, "I'm not that bored. I'm just stating a fact."
Everyone knew that Xiao Yunhai and David Steyr's relationship was extremely bad. However, many people didn't expect that the two of them had reached the point where they would tear each other apart upon meeting.
