555. Spooky game, make a little money
As a pseudo-fan, Zhou Fangyuan certainly won't watch every game, in fact, he mainly only watches the games of the Brazilian team, and in addition, he watches the opening game at most.
Speaking of which, this year's opening game is also interesting, the last champion French team, actually lost to the little-known Senegal team in the opening game, Zhou Fangyuan remembered that when he saw this game on TV, his roommates only had one evaluation of this battle, ""!
Yes, the mentality of countless people who watched this game at the time was probably in this way.
Who would have thought that the French team, which was invincible in the world in 98, was reduced to Sri Lanka in just four years, and the opponent of the opening game was not Brazil, not Argentina, not Germany, not other strong teams, but a team that entered the World Cup finals for the first time, and was established only for more than 40 years, and there were almost no internationally famous players in the team.
Zhou Fangyuan watched this game on the spot, and in the company of Han Jiaren, because he had already known the result, he was not very surprised. Because she has never liked football very much, Han Jiaren did not react to the result of such a game, she had just broken her body, and this was the clingy stage, and she wanted to stay with Zhou Fangyuan every minute and every second. Fortunately, Han Jiaren is not the most famous star in Nanxian at present, and basically wearing a pair of relatively large sunglasses can cover all the eyes that may notice him. As for Zhou Fangyuan, it doesn't matter at all, he is basically not famous in Nanxian, so he can show his image at will.
The two watched the game on the field together, and they didn't care about the outcome of the game, but the people around them were different.
Not to mention that many people in it have bet on the results of the game in related companies, but as a result, the French team, which is favored by the vast majority of people, actually lost like this, and I don't know how many people lost the money in their hands in vain.
Speaking of which, gambling should never be encouraged, Zhou Fangyuan is a very law-abiding person, so he won't gamble * ball, but it's okay to buy some lottery tickets. In almost all countries, lotteries are legal, and Nanxian is no exception. He didn't go to the illegal gambling activities, but the legal lottery tickets could still be bought. I didn't buy much, so I didn't make much, and I just made millions.
Anyway, this money is not made in vain, millions are really not much, with Zhou Fangyuan's current financial resources and mentality, it is only equivalent to a few million soft sister coins, not millions of dollars. In fact, even if it is a few million dollars, he doesn't care too much, and these money is at most pocket money. But for Han Jiaren, this money is already a lot, after all, she has just made her debut, filmed some advertisements or something, and does not have much savings in her hand, so Zhou Fangyuan asked Han Jiaren to remove part of the money when he bought lottery tickets, so in the end, part of the income will belong to her.
Although it is not much, it is enough to make her life more relaxed. In fact, Zhou Fangyuan originally wanted to give her money to spend directly, after all, she was already her own woman, but Han Jiaren disagreed, and resolutely didn't want his money, and said that if she wanted it, it would be equivalent to accepting his charity, and it would become a one-to-one transaction.
Zhou Fangyuan wanted to say, after getting married, didn't the two families gather each other's money to live together? Aren't those families where the father earned money for the mother?
But in the face of Han Jiaren's sensitive performance, Zhou Fangyuan decisively gave up the idea of giving money to the other party. However, you can't give money directly, it's not a problem to help her make some money, and the match between Senegal and the French team, to be honest, is really the biggest dark horse in this year's World Cup, and it is the first game, or the defending champion of the last edition, although there will inevitably be several dark horses in each World Cup, but who would have thought that the first game would be so sensational? Therefore, there are too many people who choose the French team to win in this game, and there are almost no people who choose Senegal, which is cheaper for people like Zhou Fangyuan, invest a little more money, and easily start with a few million.
Speaking of which, Zhou Fangyuan, as a reborn person, wanted to say that in fact, it was really simple to make this kind of money by relying on the ability of the prophet, and there was no difficulty at all. But just like what he has seen before, those who make tens of millions of dollars by gambling at every turn, Zhou Fangyuan just wants to say that these people are afraid that they are living in dreams. If you want to make enough money in this way, do you know how much money you have to invest? If there is so much money to invest, how many people will spend the money on it? He is just playing the lottery casually. With his current value, of course, it is no problem to invest enough money that can earn tens of millions, but he will not do it.
Making so much money at once is not only a matter of funding, but also of security. Do you really think that those who open gambling games have no way to retaliate? The people who can directly control all this are big guys, needless to say, but someone must implement it in the future, and those who have directly lost money and the gambling game has been ruined, and they must not be suffocated? If they are famous and promising people, they are naturally not afraid of these people. But the problem is that the protagonists in those often have no status when they participate in this kind of activity, but they just have some money in their hands and want to take this opportunity to make their limited funds more abundant.
In this case, can the person who set up the bureau let go of the protagonist?
It's like going to Europe to play, those people who compete for the European Cup, as those said, earn tens of millions of euros at every turn, I'm afraid they can't even get out of Europe.
So every time he sees the type of bridge at that moment, Zhou Fangyuan feels very speechless, the people who set up the bureau, and the bigwigs who control behind the scenes may not be able to make so much, you want to make so much money as a person who enters the game, isn't it a joke? At most, he just took this opportunity to earn some pocket money, maybe it was a good income for people who had just started a business, but for Zhou Fangyuan, it was only a few million, and he really didn't care about it anymore.
And this opening game also completely started the war of the 02 World Cup.
The French team's first defeat really exceeded the expectations of countless people.
In fact, this year's World Cup is indeed the strangest in history, except for Brazil, who eventually won the championship, almost all the favorites died early. Its host France, was humiliated by the new World Cup team Senegal in the opening game. The Gallic Roosters, who are "more famous than powerful", have not even scored a goal in three group games, and the Golden Boot of Serie A, Ligue 1 and the Premier League has lost face.
The French team's performance was so sluggish that many people were very disappointed with the French team. There are those who care and those who encourage, but most people are all kinds of abuse and all kinds of dissatisfaction. There are even many conspiracy theorists who began to analyze whether there was any conspiracy behind this game, but after thinking about it carefully, it is true that the reason why the French team lost so badly is due to the absence of Zidane, the core of the team.
In fact, before the World Cup, Nan Xian invited France to play a warm-up match, but Zidane, the hero who won the championship in France four years ago, was injured in this game. According to sources, in the contract for the warm-up match against the Nanxian team, there is a requirement that Zidane must play the whole game, for which Nanxian will pay $400,000 to the French Football Federation, so the French Football Association has also been infamous after the World Cup. In the final battle against Denmark, Zidane had to force his thigh with a bandage, leaving behind the classic image of falling to the ground in pain and embarrassment. France also lost 0-2 and exited the group. Argentina and Portugal were also the strongest teams to go out of the group in this tournament, with the latter losing at the expense of the Benan people.
Speaking of which, looking at world football, the Nanxian team has always been a controversial team. They once created the "best record" of Asian teams in the World Cup, but they were infamous for it. Some say they are the light of Asia, some say they are the shame of Asia. And all of this stems from this year's South Korea-Japan World Cup, and the Taiji Tiger's "brilliant" journey to the semi-finals.
Before the final round of the group, the situation in the group stage was that Nan Xian occupied the first place in the group with one win and one draw, the United States ranked second in the group with a goal difference, and Portugal ranked third in the group with one win and one loss. This meant that Portugal would have to defeat Nam Xian in order to take control of their own destiny.
At that time, Portugal was in the golden generation led by Figo, and the team returned to the World Cup after 16 years, which can be called the strongest Portugal after the Eusebio generation.
In the match with Nanxian, their delicate skills and tactics should have dominated the field, but the referee naturally favored the host in the decision, Joao Pinto was shown a red card by the referee on duty Argentine Sanchez in the 27th minute, and in the 65th minute, Beto accumulated 2 yellow cards were also sent off, and Portugal could only respond with 9 men. Park Ji-sung's goal in the 70th minute helped Nam Hyun win over a seemingly formidable Portugal, and the future European champions had to go home after the group stage.
The winning Tai Chi Lake was ecstatic, and their "miracle" journey had just begun.
This year's Italy can also be called a superstar-studded team, a team that can run for the "strongest Italy in history", with Buffon, Maldini, Nesta, Cannavaro, Totti, Piero, Inzaghi, Vieri and other world-class stars, but because of coach Trapattoni's conservatism, the original time and space Portugal team barely mixed in the second place in the group, so their opponent is the host Nan Xian.
So such a game that shocked the world was staged.
At the beginning of the game, the Nanxian team won a set-piece opportunity at a 45-degree angle on the side, and the Italian penalty area was in chaos, and the referee pointed straight to the twelve yards. A classic image at the time was that the referee awarded a penalty as soon as the ball flew into the sky. Only this time Buffon saved Ahn Jung-hwan's penalty, after which Vieri opened the scoring for Italy and made a "shut up" gesture.
The game started to get even stranger from here, under the protection of the referee, the Nan Xian team made countless flying tackles, kicks, pulls, and even elbowed Piero, made Koko's head bleed, and kicked Maldini in the head in the penalty area were ignored by the referee, and the Nan Xian people also equalized in the 88th minute to drag the game into extra time. Contrary to the favor that Nan Xian received, it was the spoon's harshness on the Italian team, the blue team was blown off by the referee twice for offside, especially Tomasi, whether watching the TV broadcast or live, there was no offside, and his goal was wiped out for no reason.
Totti then fell to the ground in the Nanxian penalty area, and the referee controversially awarded a fake fall and sent a second yellow card to send Totti off the field. The Nam Xian team itself is known for not being able to run to death, and at this time, there was one more person to fight, and the biased decision of the referee on duty Moreno made the Italians daunted, so in the final moments of the game, people saw Ahn Jung-hwan's classic header golden ball. The Italians were furious when Perugia quickly sacked Ahn Jung-hwan, who was still playing for the team, saying: "We don't need to ruin Italian football. ”
And in the following ten years, Serie A has a boycott attitude towards Nanxian players.
The Nan Xian continued their performances, and in the quarterfinals, they met the flamboyant Matadors of Spain, a team that was seen at the time as having the strength to challenge for the title. However, Spain coach Camacho gave an unexpected statement before the game: he would prefer to touch the star-studded Italy than the host Nanxian.
Camacho proved to be prescient, as his side were robbed of a place in the last four in another humiliating battle in world football.
In the match against the Nan Xian team, the referee first blew out a reasonable goal from Elguera, and then blew out a non-doubted goal from Morientes in extra time. Under such a blatant forcible take, the Nanxian team was given the opportunity to face Spain from 12 yards, and as a result, Joaquín, who had performed well in this tournament, missed a penalty kick, and Spain were unfortunately eliminated. In this shocking match, the referee's arrangement is also debatable, after all, before the World Cup, Blatter faced fierce factional battles, although he was elected FIFA president with a high vote, but there are still many opponents, FIFA vice president Zheng Mengzhun is one, he is on the side of the non-football federation, and the Spanish football federation is on the side of Blatter. Then we saw two African referees in the match between Spain and Nanxian, and the implication is self-explanatory.
Of course, there is no evidence for these things, but everyone knows it in their hearts. But then again, sometimes some things really don't need any proof. Besides, the people of Nanxian have always been famous for their dirtiness in sports, and for the citizens of this country, as long as they can win, any means are acceptable, of course, limited to themselves, if others use the same method against them, they will not be able to accept it completely.
Fortunately, the Nanxian team did not meet with the Brazilian team, and in the end, Zhou Fangyuan's favorite Brazilian team won the championship, otherwise he would not have such a good attitude at this moment, watching the game with a playful mind.
