Rebirth 2004: I can make money by writing

On the morning of July 9th, local time,

Hao Qiang and Lukas cashed in their winning lottery tickets.

While the salesperson of SportWetten was still there, Hao Qiang and Lukas looked at the odds offered by the company.

Italy wins 2.50, draws 2.85, and loses 2.90, which is the case without handicaps.

The odds offered by each bookmaker are slightly different, and are adjusted according to the players’ betting situation.

Before placing the bet, Hao Qiang discussed privately with Lukas.

“Lukas, I plan to bet 4 million euros on the draw. If it is convenient for you, I plan to borrow some money by mortgaging the goods from you, and then change to another bookmaker and continue betting.”

“Hao, are you sure?”

“I’m not 100% sure, I just want to give it a try. Anyway, it’s the last one, and I won’t regret losing.” Hao Qiang smiled.

“Well, you’re right. Anyway, I’ve won a lot now. It’s a rare opportunity to play. Just have fun.” Lukas agreed, thought for a moment, and said, “I can lend you a maximum of 6 million euros. I don’t have much money on hand.”

Lukas saw that Hao Qiang helped him make money, so lending him a few million euros was nothing.

Of course, the mortgage contract should be signed as usual.

“Thank you.”

Hao Qiang said happily, Lukas is really a good man.

After the two discussed it, they first bet at SportWetten. Hao Qiang bet 4 million euros on a tie, and Lukas bet 5 million euros to follow suit.

Subsequently, Hao Qiang and Lukas signed a cargo mortgage contract for 20,000 F1 cars, with a delivery period of one year and a contract amount of 6.12 million euros.

After signing the contract, Lukas called the business teams of three other bookmakers.

Hao Qiang continued to bet, still betting on a tie, with an average odds of 2.80.

Lukas also continued to bet 10 million euros, also betting on a draw.

After the two finished betting, the bookmakers lowered the odds of a draw.

In the end, Hao Qiang bet a total of 10.12 million euros on a draw, while Lukas bet 15 million euros.

If Lukas was sure, it would probably be more than just this amount of chips.

Now, he followed Hao Qiang because he believed in Hao Qiang’s luck. After all, Hao Qiang won consecutively, and he also won by betting.

In terms of team analysis, Lukas felt that Hao Qiang’s analysis was very clear and he was familiar with the situation of each team member.

After finishing the bet, it was noon.

After Hao Qiang and Lukas had lunch, he took some time to keep his lottery ticket in the bank safe. After the game, he would cash in the lottery ticket in batches to ensure the safety of funds.

At five o’clock in the afternoon, the bookmaker had stopped betting.

The final will be held at the Berlin Olympic Stadium at seven o’clock tonight.

Before Hao Qiang and Lukas arrived at the stadium, they could already hear the cheers of fans along the way, and many people were singing the national anthem.

Outside the stadium, there were no less than 200,000 fans.

Because many fans could not buy tickets or did not have enough money to buy tickets, they could only watch the live broadcast on the big screen outside the stadium to support their team.

Hao Qiang and Lukas did not wear uniforms, but casual clothes.

Lukas’ family, including Lukas’ wife and two sons, came with them.

Lukas’ two sons were about the same age as Hao Qiang. The eldest son was already working in the company, and the youngest son was a sophomore at the Technical University of Munich.

Lukas’ family knew that Hao Qiang was a VIP of the company and was very polite to him.

Under the escort of several bodyguards, a group of five people walked towards the VIP entrance.

The ticket price for the VIP box of the final was expensive. Hao Qiang did not know how much Lukas spent, and he did not ask.

For Lukas’ wealth level, this little money is not important.

The ticket prices for this World Cup have dropped compared to the previous one. The average ticket price for the final is only 221 pounds, or about 3,315 yuan.

Of course, this is only the official price of ordinary tickets, not including VIP tickets.

In fact, due to the large demand for tickets, it is necessary to draw lots online, and the winning rate is not high, which leads to the high ticket prices in the secondary market.

The ticket prices for different positions also vary greatly.

Hao Qiang’s box is located in the middle level of the stands, on both sides of the VVIP box, with an excellent location and a ticket price second only to the VVIP box.

In tonight’s final, the VVIP box is filled with dignitaries and other big names from various countries. These seats are not available with money.

At nearly 6:30 in the evening, more than 70,000 fans had already poured into the Olympic Stadium, and the number of viewers of the live broadcast on TV exceeded 1 billion.

Huaguo, CCTVChannel 5 also broadcast the game live, and countless fans stayed up late to watch it.

Tonight, politicians from France, Germany, Italy, Austria and other countries came to watch the game, and they were sitting in the VVIP box at this time.

The live camera focused on these politicians many times, and domestic audiences saw these scenes.

Suddenly, the photographer of CCTV Channel 5 captured a familiar yellow man, who was near these politicians, only a dozen meters away.

The host on the scene was wearing headphones, and after hearing the photographer’s prompt, the picture turned to the yellow man.

“Dear audience, the atmosphere is full of passion, and the stadium is already full.

Fans from all over the world are wearing the uniforms of their respective teams, waving flags, and shouting slogans. The air is full of expectation and excitement, and everyone’s face is full of enthusiasm.

Just now, the photographer captured a Chinese who may be familiar to everyone.

There are also many Chinese who came to watch the World Cup final today, but we only found one sitting in the VIP box, and he was very close to the dignitaries of various countries.

Unexpectedly, Hao Qiang also came to watch the game. He is only 20 years old, but he can’t resist the temptation of the World Cup.”

The audience in front of the TV also saw Hao Qiang. He was wearing casual clothes, holding a cup of coffee in his hand, and chatting with the middle-aged man next to him. It seems that he is having a good time.

The camera of Hao Qiang lasted only a while, and then turned to the scene.

Time passed slowly, and an 11-minute closing ceremony was held before the game.

At seven o’clock, with the referee’s whistle, the game officially began, and the players on the field quickly got into the state and started a fierce fight.

Every attack and defense touched the hearts of the audience, and the fans cheered or held their breath nervously.

Whenever a player approached the goal, the sound of the entire stadium reached its peak, and the shouts were deafening.

In the 7th minute, France won a penalty kick.

Zidane calmly kicked the ball with his right foot, and France led 1:0.

Lukas in the stands saw the goal and couldn’t help but sigh and became nervous.

The scene he least wanted to see was that the French team scored.

Hao Qiang was in a relatively calm mood, but he still sighed when he saw the ball go in.

In the 19th minute, Italy took a corner kick on the right side. Pirlo kicked a precise arc ball. Materazzi overpowered Vieira at the back point and headed the ball into the center of the goal 6 meters in front of the goal. Italy tied 1:1!

Materazzi redeemed himself!

“Wo, Hao, it’s a tie, it’s a tie!”

Lukas saw the ball go in and it was a tie, so he couldn’t help but jump up and high-five Hao Qiang.

This was the outcome they both wanted to see the most.

Lukas’ two sons didn’t understand, they only knew that their father had gambled, but they didn’t know how to bet.

Seeing their father happy, they also became happy.

In the subsequent games, every attack made Lukas feel uneasy.

In his opinion, it would be better for both sides to fight in the midfield until the end of the game.

In the 53rd minute of the second half, the French team made a quick counterattack, and Malouda was tackled by Zambrotta on the left side of the penalty area!

The referee Elizondo signaled Malouda to get up, and there was no penalty.

This also made Lukas and Hao Qiang feel relieved.

Hao Qiang was also worried that the bookmakers would bribe the referee due to the change in chips.

If the French team won, he would lose miserably.

Fortunately, the chips of the two were not enough to make the bookmakers do such a thing.

Before the final, the referee cannot have too much contact with non-official personnel, especially people from the bookmakers. If they are found and reported, they will definitely be disqualified by the Football Association.

But the game is not over yet, Hao Qiang can’t relax at all.

He spent nearly 20 million euros before and after, and he can’t let it go to waste.

If the outcome is different, it will seriously affect his future plans.
