These are actually after-dinner conversations, which are meaningless to Li Zhengyi, but now, he regrets it, and his intestines are almost regretful.

He forgot to bet.

I didn't pay attention to football in my previous life, and I still do the same in this life, so I let an opportunity to gamble and make a lot of money slip away in front of me.

The top four of the stick country are something that no one expected.

In the last life, the odds of football lottery to buy sticks to become the top four countries are as high as dozens of times, and I vaguely remember that it seems to be about 80 times.

What is this concept?

It means that as long as you bet 100,000, you will have a profit of up to 8 million, and if you bet 1 million, you will have a profit of 80 million.

Well, of course Li Zhengyi knows, there is no need to think about betting 10 million 100 million, if you really bet so much, if you don't make a stick country, you won't be able to enter the top four.

Bookmakers are not fools.

But betting on one million is absolutely no problem, and this pure income is higher than the income from the promotion of billing software in national Internet cafes that Li Zhengyi planned for half a year.

It's a loss!

Li Zhengyi's constipated expression on his face!

"What's your situation?" Ouyang Qing glanced at Li Zhengyi curiously and asked puzzled.

Zhuang Xiangqiu is the same, and he can't understand why Li Zhengyi's reaction is so big.

Li Zhengyi sighed: "You say, if you buy a stick before the start of the World Cup, will you make a fortune now?"

Zhuang Xiangqiu said happily: "Don't daydream, in hindsight, everyone knows it." ”

Ouyang Qing twisted the wheelchair a little and echoed Zhuang Xiangqiu's statement.

Li Zhengyi cried and said with a sad face: "You don't understand, in fact, I originally wanted to buy it!"

“……”

“……”

The two were speechless!

Of course, the two of them listened to it as a joke, Ouyang Qing laughed a few words, and then slowly moved his wheelchair to the opposite technical department, but Zhuang Xiangqiu looked at Li Zhengyi with a smile and did not speak.

"Why are you looking at me like this?" Li Zhengyi said dissatisfiedly, "I really didn't lie to you, I wanted to buy it, but unfortunately I forgot it, and now I think about it." ”

Zhuang Xiangqiu grinned and said, "I believe it!"

"Forget it, don't talk about it. ”

As soon as Li Zheng looked at the other party's painless expression, he knew that he didn't care about his words, anyway, if he missed it, he missed it, and it was okay to take it as a joke.

The so-called miss is not wrong, but excessive!

……

The last day of the end of June.

At seven o'clock, the 2002 World Cup final officially began.

Li Zhengyi accompanied Zhuang Xiangqiu, nestled on the sofa of the hotel, and watched with great interest the wonderful duel between the Samba Army and the steel chariot on the screen.

For Li Zhengyi, it doesn't matter if he watches the World Cup final or not, he doesn't have much desire for football in his past and present lives, he sits here purely to accompany his girlfriend.

The two of them were reversed.

In general, it is the men who like football, and the women are the ones who accompany the men to watch the ball.

Li Zhengyi didn't understand why Zhuang Xiangqiu liked to watch football games so much, and he didn't see how obsessed she was with football on weekdays.

In the second half, when the alien scored, Zhuang Xiangqiu only applauded symbolically, and she didn't seem to be a fan of the Brazilian team, and every time the German team got the ball, she was also unfazed, obviously not like a fan of the German team.

Is it a neutral fan?

With this question in mind, it wasn't until the end of the game that Li Zhengyi suddenly realized.

Because Zhuang Xiangqiu sighed regretfully and said, "Why didn't Kaka get on!"

It turns out that Zhuang Da Beauty is not a fan of any country, she is a fan of Kaka, guarding the screen, just to see if Kaka can play, but unfortunately, in the 2002 World Cup, in the superstar-studded Brazilian team, the young Kaka is still a small role.

If you want to watch Kaka play in the World Cup, it's very simple, wait another 4 years, and it will be the absolute core.

Looking at Zhuang Xiangqiu's pouting and a regretful expression, Li Zhengyi couldn't help but laugh.

It's pretty cute, though.

Perhaps, it feels good to have a girlfriend who likes football, or rather likes football stars.

At least take your time to develop your hobbies, and soon you will have a common language.

In any case, it's much better than the hobby of shopping.

……

June is finally over.

On July 1, Zhang Xiaolong, who was far away in the country of sticks, called.

Zhang Xiaolong said: "Mr. Li, the situation here is not optimistic, and we are not the only ones who want to act as agents. ”

Li Zhengyi said: "This is expected, who else?

"Not only that, but there is also one small company, three in total. ”

"How's the other one doing?"

"That one is not to worry about, it is estimated that it is a bargaining chip used by the stick country to join in the fun and increase the negotiation capital. Zhang Xiaolong expressed his opinion and said, "As for the ninth city, because it is a veteran Internet company, it is much stronger than us in terms of operational experience and channels." ”

Li Zhengyi said: "Do you see a little chance?"

Zhang Xiaolong said: "Under the conditions of the same capital and sharing ratio, we really have no advantage, and Bangziguo does not have much interest in our newly established company." ”

"Have there been formal negotiations now?"

"I had contact at the beginning, and I will start negotiations tomorrow, and I don't know the bottom of my heart, so I called you to ask. ”

Li Zhengyi thought for a while and said: "Then don't panic for the time being, compared with the ninth city, the only thing we lack is experience, and in terms of channels, everyone is almost the same, nothing more than investing in the development of channels." But you have to remember that we have an advantage that Ninth City can't match, and I think you should understand. ”

"You mean the funds?" Zhang Xiaolong guessed.

"Yes. Li Zhengyi directly admitted, "In the past two years, the business situation of the ninth city, as long as you have a heart, you can see one or two, since 2000, they have been losing money, and the loss ratio is getting higher and higher year by year, this year is not unexpected, their loss amount should have reached about 30 million." ”

Zhang Xiaolong said: "I understand, but I don't know the specifics, how credible is your information?"

Li Zhengyi smiled and said: "Don't worry, there is no problem with the information at all, with the current capital preparation of the ninth city, they can't bear too much pressure at all, they are now desperate, acting as a miracle MU, it is their last move, if they don't succeed, they will become benevolent, our bottom line should be able to directly crush the other party." ”

"I'm afraid that if they have the determination to break the boat, it will be difficult to do it!"

"Don't worry. Li Zhengyi comforted him, then pondered for a while, and explained, "That's good, on the basis of the highest price we negotiated, you can float 20% freely, how to do it, you can get an idea at any time over there." ”

"Okay, Mr. Xie Li trusts. ”

"Hard!"

Hang up and start the busiest day of the week again.

The regular Caucus meeting in the morning and the leadership meeting above the supervisor level in the afternoon are basically the first day of every week, unless there are special circumstances.
