Chapter 644: Grand (Asking for Recommendation Tickets and Monthly Tickets)
Five days later, on Sunday, the sky was clear and it was a good day for horse racing.
When Xia Yu, Bao Yugang and others came to the Sha Tin Racecourse in the New Territories again, tens of thousands of spectators had already entered the stadium.
said that it came again because four days ago, Xia Yu transported the two horses "Red Rabbit" and "Wu Hu" to Sha Tin Racecourse, and selected a horse trainer with solid skills and two jockeys with excellent riding skills.
The role of a trainer is to train and care for the horses, and to manage the stables, while the professional jockeys are responsible for the races.
A jockey may ride different horses in a day, and with the energy of Xia Yu and Bao Yugang, it is natural to designate two more professional jockeys to be in charge of Xia Yu's two horses.
This time, both of Xia Yu's horses signed up for the competition.
Today, because it is a large-scale Marseille specially held, many bigwigs have taken their love horses out to slip away, and there are many applicants, so the number of games today is not the usual ten, but sixteen, and the schedule is closer and more interesting.
In every race, there are 14 horses, which means that there will be 224 horses in the race today.
Xia Yu's two horses were randomly divided into different races, namely the second race of "Red Rabbit" and the sixth race of "Wu Hu".
When Xia Yu, Bao Yugang and others came to the best three-story open-air grandstand at the racecourse, they found many familiar faces, all of whom were bigwigs from all walks of life, or high-ranking officials in the political circles, of course, most of them were British.
Seeing Xia Yu, Bao Yugang, and Huo Yingdong, the three top Chinese bigwigs coming in, the originally noisy conversation in the grandstand suddenly became much quieter.
Then many people greeted Xia Yu with smiles on their faces, even if they didn't come over, they all smiled and nodded to Xia Yu and the others.
"Mr. Xia, Mr. Bao, Mr. Huo, good morning!"
"Good morning, Mr. Smith!"
"Xia Sheng, welcome to you. ”
......
Everyone shook hands with each other warmly, the scene was very lively, and some of the British people who were observing around looked solemn, because they saw Xia Yu's terrifying popularity, and many bigwigs shook hands around him to say hello.
"Xia Sheng, welcome to join us!"
"Shen Sheng, long time no see!"
Xia Yu and Shen Bi solemnly shook hands and said hello.
Before coming, Bao Yugang told him about the situation of the Xiangjiang Jockey Club at this time.
The Club has a chairman and 12 directors, including HSBC chairman Shen Bi, who was elected at the beginning of the year.
Among the twelve directors, there are only four Chinese directors, namely Lo Man-jin, the son of the Lo family and the current head of the Lo family, Lo Tak Cheng, the eldest son of Lee Hysan of the Lee family, Li Fuhe of the Lee family, who founded the Bank of East Asia, and Ho Tim, one of the founders of Hang Seng Bank and a permanent trustee of the Chinese University of Hong Kong.
It's just that among these four people, I don't know if they haven't come to Qi yet, and only He Tian and Li Fuhe came over to greet Xia Yu, both of whom have had dealings with Xia Yu before.
"Mr. Xia, when everyone arrives, I need to invite you to the stage and hold a simple welcome ceremony for you. ”
Shen Bi said with a smile.
Although he knew it before, Xia Yu still showed an unexpected expression and said: "There's no need to be so grand, it's already an exception to list me as a selection member, and I will be flattered to hold a welcome ceremony!"
"Xia Sheng, what you said, your joining has made the Jockey Club flourish, and we are all worried that a simple welcome ceremony will not be too classless. ”
He Tianle, who was full of white hair, laughed.
......
In the enthusiastic conversation, time gradually passed, the field that can accommodate 80,000 people is almost full, Xia Yu looked down from a height, the surrounding area was densely packed with people, almost not vacant seats, the betting points set up everywhere in the field were full of people, which shows the enthusiasm of the citizens for horse racing.
At this time, hundreds of people also came to the grandstand, all of whom are top elites from all walks of life in Xiangjiang, and the essence of the Xiangjiang Jockey Club.
Before the start of the competition, Shen Bi stepped onto the central stage, and then stood on a large screen in the center of the racecourse, Shen Bi's figure appeared, and the noisy venue gradually quieted down, almost everyone looked at the big screen in the center, wanting to know what Shen Bi wanted to say.
"Distinguished guests and dear citizens, good morning, I am Club Chairman Shen Bi. ”
"I have a big announcement ahead of the upcoming competition. ”
"We have once again welcomed a heavyweight member of the Club, and I am sure all of you here have heard his name, so let's invite him to the stage with a warm call and applause. ”
After speaking, Shen Bi looked at the audience on the left with a smile.
Hundreds of top members in the grandstand smiled and applauded, and the 80,000 spectators at the racecourse were also looking forward to it and were very curious.
Among them, some careful people carefully studied the 224 horses competing today, and found that the name of Xia Yu was on the information of the horse owner, and they guessed whether it was Xia Yu, the god of stocks.
In the big stands, Xia Yu didn't expect Shen Bi to introduce him in front of everyone, and also invited him to the stage, the focus is that there is a big screen that can be seen by the whole audience.
Such a move is not grand, Xia Yu is a little flattered, but he also knows that Shen Bi, as the chairman, also has the advantage of his fame, after he does this, there is no need to think that Xia Yu will join the front page of the Jockey Club in the near future, and the reputation of the Jockey Club will reach new heights.
Seeing everyone looking at him, Xia Yu no longer hesitated, and walked onto the stage with a steady step.
"Wow!"
"Isn't this the stock god Xia Yu?"
"Really, he didn't join the Jockey Club before?"
"Sure enough, it's a heavyweight, it's hard for Xiangjiang to find a tycoon with a bigger name than him, I didn't expect him to be so young......"
"The god of stocks rarely appears in public, I didn't expect to see it here today, it must be that I transferred it today, I have to hurry up and invest another hundred bets, and it depends on the god of stocks to make a fortune!"
......
As Xia Yu's figure appeared on the big screen, there was a sudden burst of discussion and exclamations around the racehorse.
Listening to the noisy sound of the arena, the corners of Shen Bi's mouth raised slightly, and he was very satisfied with this effect.
After Xia Yu stood next to him, he smiled and said, "Mr. Xia, might as well say a few words to everyone?"
Xia Yu smiled and nodded, looked straight ahead, and said in a calm and confident voice: "Hello everyone, I am Xia Yu, and I am honored to join the Jockey Club and become a family with everyone." ”
"I didn't expect Chairman Shen to prepare such a grand welcome ceremony for me, which surprised and moved me, thank you for the warm welcome of the Jockey Club!"
"Finally, I sincerely wish the Club a prosperous and prosperous career for all its members, and good luck and prosperity for all of you!"
"Thank you!"
After speaking, Xia Yu bowed, and suddenly the scene burst into fierce applause and applause.
"Good!"
"Bang Bang Bang ......"
Especially the spectators sitting around the arena, many people had to hear Xia Yu's blessings, and they ran to the betting point to raise excitedly, and suddenly drove the nearby to raise together.
For a while, the betting spots located around the stadium were crowded.
Today, Marseille, where Globo TV also broadcasts live, many viewers in front of the TV set are also affected and pick up the phone to place a telephone bet.
In the big stands, Xia Yu, who had already left the game, was surrounded by many people, and Shen Bi on the stage looked at the time and said loudly: "Please get ready, the first game is about to start!"
