Chapter 260: The Storm in Europe
"Why don't you ask me to come up and sit down?"
The Rolls-Royce Phantom stopped on the side of the road outside the Aimo apartment building, and in the carriage, after a hug and a chun, Arthur looked at the pretty and rosy face with a playful face, and Aimo Alammuddin, who had a cheek of Xiasheng, asked.
Aimo glanced at Arthur charmingly, tidied up the messy evening dress, and said coquettishly: "The beauty of thinking has already taken you a lot of advantage today!"
"Hehe, okay, I respect your thoughts, but, believe me, all your current tests, I will return to you ruthlessly, ruthlessly!"
Arthur's gaze was incomparably bright and hot, and he focused on a few words to accentuate his tone, and he looked determined to do what he said.
For the subtext of Arthur's words, Aimo naturally heard it, and at the same time as his heart fluttered, the eyes in his beautiful eyes were a little confused, and his pretty face was more embarrassed, and he couldn't help but snort.
"Phew!"
Then he reached out to open the car door and walked out of the car with his evening gown, while Arthur smiled and quickly opened the car door, got out of the car, took a windbreaker, walked around quickly, and put the windbreaker on Aimo very intimately.
"It's cold, be careful. ”
Aimo smiled softly, his eyes filled with deep qing, and he said softly, "Thank you, good night." ”
"Good night. Arthur smiled softly, and then stood next to the car, looking at Aimo, who turned back to the apartment building three times in a row, and the pride and anticipation in his eyes became stronger and stronger.
I have to say, don't look at Amo Alammuddin's figure is very thin, and Tui is also very thin, but in fact, she is really a very material beauty, just in response to that sentence, it seems to be thin, but in fact it is graceful and exquisite!
There is a sense of xing, called not knowing how beautiful his career is...
Arthur, who was sitting in the car, leaned his elbows against the window, smiled, sniffed the fragrance in his hands, and looked a little distracted at the Christmas atmosphere that had quietly appeared on the streets of London.
With a good mood and expectation, Arthur, who returned home, took a simple shower, and called Jiang Lai, who was chatting hotly, knowing that Jiang Lai was sleepy on the other end of the phone, Arthur hung up the phone, yawned, turned off the light and went to sleep.
If you want to enjoy the blessings of all people, you naturally have to devote enough time and effort to management, but the troubles are very happy and fulfilling.
On the weekend of the next day, Arthur slept until he woke up naturally, enjoyed breakfast, drank black tea, basked in the warm autumn sun, read the newspaper, and thought that the morning would be spent so leisurely.
Knowing that the manager of the Southampton club, Nicola Costy, called to report an incident that disrupted his weekend break.
"This morning, the German Bo Hong police revealed that there are about 200 matches in Europe that have been played by the Du Ball Group, including the number of matches in the Champions League, the top league in Europe. At present, the police have arrested a number of gambling suspects in Germany and other European countries.
Just an hour earlier, about 50 police officers launched a major search in Germany, the United Kingdom, Austria and Switzerland, and arrested 15 people in Germany and 2 in Switzerland.
Police also searched for about 1 million euros in cash or items used to manipulate nine European leagues. UEFA representatives said at a recent police press conference that they were shocked. Considering that this incident is undoubtedly a huge scandal that has never been seen in Europe, and that the impartiality of football can only be ensured if these referees, players and team officials must be guaranteed to be brought to justice.
According to the latest investigation by the German police, about nine countries are involved in it, of which 4 German B matches, 3 German C games and 23 German regional league games have been determined to be suspected of match-fixing. There are also three UEFA Champions Leagues, 12 Europa League matches and one European Under-21 match.
The number of people involved in this scandal may exceed 200 players, coaches, referees and sports officials, but because the police investigation has not yet ended, the specific list of teams and personnel involved has not yet been announced!
The FA has just called and urgently summoned all club managers and owners for a meeting in London at 3pm... ”
Hearing this exciting news, Arthur did not feel so shocked, you must know that in the UK, du ball is legal, so many bO lottery companies, Arthur will not think that these companies will not use off-the-board moves, although not to say that they can completely control the game, but want to control a player, referee or something, it is still very easy.
"Is there anyone involved in our club?" Arthur was more concerned about whether the Southampton club, which he had dared to take over for a short time, was clean.
"Sorry, boss, I can't guarantee it, after all, we have only been in charge for a few months, and it is difficult to say this kind of thing clearly, I checked the club's record for the past two years, and there are indeed several games with a bit of strange results, which makes no sense, but it is also difficult to say that it is controlled.
After all, football is round, anything is possible, anything can happen. On the other end of the phone, Nikolai explained with a wry smile.
"England is the birthplace of modern football and London is the world's financial centre, so it's no surprise that those underground groups are hidden in London. According to some of the insiders I know, as little as $300,000 can control an international friendly match, and the betting network can earn millions of dollars per controlled match, which is just too lucrative.
However, I believe that the problem in the UK is not big, after all, for those wealthy Bocai companies, the C-control competition is not profitable, and in the case of the standardization of the entire Bocai industry, the best choice for Bocai companies is the trickle. So there are a lot of match-fixing, but they are the first to report it. ”
What Nikolai said, Arthur believes very much, after all, in the Premier League, players have also generally participated in DU ball, large and small Bocai companies are no less than 50, and the fan participation rate is as high as 70%, but this has hardly harmed the fairness and authenticity of the Premier League. du ball, which does not necessarily lead to match-fixing.
"The key is still other foreign DU ball groups, but in the UK, it is very difficult for them to really control the league game, most of them take crooked ways, just like the power outage in Charlton's home game against Liverpool in the Premier League in 99, that is the trick played by the DU ball group from Asia. On the other end of the phone, Nikolai told the young owner about some of the old stories of football.
"Tell me about it. Arthur really doesn't know, after all, he wasn't even a pseudo-fan in his previous life, and in this life, he became a pseudo-fan because he received the memories of his predecessor, where would he know about the football events of a few years ago.
"Here's the thing ... Nikolai began to tell the story of his young owner, introducing the inside story of the football circle.
It turned out that in the English Premier League match between Charlton Athletic and Liverpool in 99, the lights on the scene suddenly went out and could not be repaired for 40 minutes.
After investigation, it was found that Charlton's home security manager had accepted bribes from two members of the Asian DU Football Group to deliberately turn off the lights. According to the rules of Asian bookmakers, the game is stopped for some reason, and the score at the end is the final score, so they can manipulate the game by blacking out the power.
"In '97, there were three power outages in the Premier League. However, after the standardization of the British Bocai industry, once the game is terminated for some reason, according to the industry rules, the bet will be directly returned to the bettor, which avoids the possibility of black-box operation, which is the performance of the self-discipline of the British Bocai industry. . . ”
Arthur, who was listening to the phone, nodded, then raised his eyebrows and asked, "So has this happened in the past games of our club?"
"No, but this time the scandal is too big, even the Champions League, involving the leagues of nine countries... ”
The meaning of Nikolai's words, Arthur understood, there was indeed no way to guarantee it, but even if Southampton was really involved, it was a matter of the past, not about Arthur, the new boss, of course, if it was really involved, then the punishment was certain, which is why Arthur and Nikolai were a little worried and nervous.
Because the previous Southampton club has been in the Championship for three years, no one can say, especially the scale involved this time is so staggering.
