Reborn Almighty Life

Time flies. On June 14, 2002, the World Cup group matches ended, and the participating teams had mixed joys and sorrows!

Argentina, France and Portugal, the three favorites to win the championship, were eliminated in the group stage. The happy teams are all similar, but the unfortunate teams are different!

The Argentina and France teams are simply seeking their own death. Their teams are aging and their tactics are rigid. When they win, they qualify. They lost cleanly and deserved to be eliminated.

As for Portugal, its death was a bit unjust. The Kimchi Country used the ultimate method, and the golden generation came to an end.

However, fans around the world did not realize that this game was just an appetizer. The Kimchi Country kept setting new limits, leaving this World Cup pearl in the dust.

The third round of lottery tickets went on sale after the first round of the group stage. Fans had a clear understanding of the status of each team. There were too many fans who guessed the 13 games this time.

The first prize is over 20,000 yuan, while the second prize is only 1,000 yuan. Compared with the second round lottery prize money, the difference is huge.

The Chinese team still lost to Türkiye in the last round, swallowing three eggs and losing face!

Yang Chen's goalpost still failed to allow the Chinese team to achieve a zero-goal breakthrough. At this time, Chinese fans are looking forward to it. Maybe we can perform better in the next World Cup.

However, fans of the Chinese team would never have imagined that even 18 years later, the Chinese team would still be spectators of the World Cup! In fact, the Chinese team became the first team to prepare for the 2026 World Cup qualifiers, which is really ironic!

People once thought that the Chinese team in 2002 was a low point, but they never thought that this was the real peak!

The 16 teams that have made it out of the group stage will fight against each other. The 1/8 finals will start on the 15th, with two games every day! The opening times are at 15:30 and 20:30 Beijing time, which is extremely friendly to Chinese fans.

Previously, the World Cup was held either in America or Europe, and there was a huge time difference with China. In order to cater to the local broadcast market, organizers often chose to hold games between 8 and 10 pm.

In order to watch the World Cup, Chinese fans had to stay up late to watch the games, which was extremely hard.

Now that the World Cup has come to Asia, it is much easier for Chinese fans to watch the broadcast.

Especially the game held around 8 o'clock in the evening will not even affect the rest of the working day, so you can enjoy the happiness brought by football.

"Zhutou, do you want to watch the game this afternoon?" He Xiaolan asked while putting the peeled prawns into Gu Fei's bowl.

Because of the expected profits from the lottery, Gu Fei's food standards skyrocketed during this period. Every day, he asked the food stall owner to buy fresh beef, mutton, and fresh seafood for extra meals, which cost him countless dollars.

"Don't look!" Gu Fei swallowed the food in his mouth, took a sip of warm water, and then said.

When Gu Fei was a child, the old man in his family was very strict, and he was very strict about "no talking when eating, and no talking when sleeping". He would not speak even if there was food in his mouth. He was very vague and annoying.

Gu Fei's speech, behavior, and dealings with others are much calmer than those of his peers. This is a good habit gradually developed by the strict requirements of the elderly at home.

Gu Fei already knew the results of all the games, so it didn't matter whether he watched them or not.

Taking into account the results of the group stage, the fluctuations caused by Gu Fei's massive purchase of World Cup football lottery tickets are not enough to change the general trend of the world.

Besides, the start time of the 1/8 finals is very unfriendly to college entrance examination dogs. If the game ends at regular time, the most you can see is the players leaving the field after school.

As for skipping school to watch football, any candidate who has longed for the college entrance examination will find it too ridiculous.

"Zhutou, my dad said that after the lottery winnings are withdrawn, he will buy me a house in the city center. What do you think?" He Xiaolan refilled Gu Fei's water and told her father's thoughts.

Because Gu Fei told the information in advance, and out of trust in Gu Fei, He Xiaolan forced her father to buy a lot of lottery tickets. There were winners in three rounds of winning and losing lottery tickets, and there was more than one bet in each round. All things considered. , even after tax is deducted, it’s nearly three hundred thousand!

"That's a good idea!" Gu Fei nodded, a little curious about Father He, whom he had never met before.

When he was studying at Enlong Middle School, there were a few girls in the class who were from civil servant families or the daughters of wealthy businessmen, but Gu Fei always felt that there was something missing about them.

After coming to Qiyou and getting to know He Xiaolan, Gu Fei realized that this is called 'temperament', which is cultivated by a good family atmosphere.

Gu Fei has always been curious, what kind of family can cultivate a gentle, virtuous, well-educated girl like He Xiaolan?

In the previous life, Gu Fei and He Xiaolan moved further and further apart, and they never mentioned anything about their original family, so they knew nothing about it.

"House prices are getting more and more expensive now! When the first phase of European View Garden opened last year, the average price was 1,000/square meter. The starting price of the second phase this year is 1,200/square meter!"

No one can, like Gu Fei, witness with his own eyes the rise of domestic housing prices after 2003, and finally reach unattainable highs.

Take Echeng as an example. In 2018, the average price of newly opened communities will not be less than 6,000/㎡, while the prime location in the city center is already nearly 10,000!

If you buy a house now, even if you do nothing, the appreciation in more than ten years will completely offset the inflation and it will become a net worth asset!

After the two of them finished their meal, they chatted for a while and then went back to their dormitories to take a lunch break.

The life of reviewing for the college entrance examination is actually extremely boring. People who can persevere and get good grades are much stronger than their peers in terms of self-control and perseverance.

Although Gu Fei and He Xiaolan always have endless topics to talk about when they get together, they are able to restrain themselves and spend more time on rest, study and exercise. This has to be said to be a kind of ability.

Only by being able to restrain the desires in our hearts can we have a longer-term future.

Gu Fei returned to the dormitory, and Luo Jiahua and others were still discussing the upcoming 1/8 finals, lamenting that the top eight guessing teams were completely wiped out!

After all, the probability that France, Argentina and Portugal, the three favorites to win the championship, failed in the group stage is too low! What’s more, the five third-tier teams including Senegal, Turkey, Sweden, South Korea and Ireland collectively qualified. It’s so low that no one can imagine it!

Gu Fei placed a heavy bet on the top eight guessing game, but his dad has already taken the lottery ticket home, and now he is just waiting for the top eight results to come out!

"I was also wiped out. Who would have expected that Argentina would die in the group stage?" Gu Fei said as he hung up his schoolbag and entered the bathroom with a towel.

Money attracts people's hearts, and Gu Fei is past the age of showing off, so he won't make the news about winning the lottery known to everyone.

"It's a pity that the knockout stage match is too close to the college entrance examination, which is a bit contradictory!" Luo Jiahua is a loyal fan of the German team. He really wanted to go to the cafeteria to watch the live broadcast at 3:30 in the afternoon, but felt that the college entrance examination was around the corner and it was not appropriate to be distracted.

"Bear it!" Gu Fei didn't have any good ideas. Now was the time to test his self-control.

There are still three weeks left before the college entrance examination. Gu Fei also hopes to finish the exam as soon as possible. There is still a lot to do!
