Chapter 152: The First Runway Race of the Triple Crown (4)
After leaving the stands, several people walked directly to the training ground at the back of the field.
Thomson was already waiting at the training ground with the Triple Crown.
After Pei Pei introduced Thomson and Charter, Cate walked up to the Triple Crown, took a sugar cube from his pocket, and placed it in his palm and handed it to the Triple Crown's mouth.
Pei Pei immediately stepped forward, calmed and ordered the Triple Crown to not be agitated.
The Triple Crown is a mare after all, and compared to a stallion, it has a much more docile personality. The Triple Crown knew that the stranger in front of him had been brought by his master, and that the other party had handed him his favorite candy cube. The enlightened Triple Crown is still very good at distinguishing good from bad, so after the Triple Crown got the hint of the master's divine sense, he rolled his tongue very face-giving and smiled at the candy cube.
Chart immediately hit the snake and stroked the bridge of the nose of the Triple Crown.
After familiarizing the horse in front of him with his own breath for a while, Cate made a gesture that surprised the big guys. I saw him suddenly squatting down, lying under the triple crown, and reaching out to pinch the limbs of the triple crown.
The Triple Crown seemed to feel offended, and was about to pout and kick someone, but its owner increased the power of his divine sense and fiercely suppressed the thought of the Triple Crown.
After feeling the strength of the muscles of the horse's limbs, Cate clapped his hands and got up, he habitually touched his chin, and then smiled at Peipei: "Although the age of your horse is only two years old, but in terms of appearance, its bones are fully developed, and its height can be comparable to that of an adult horse." Well, Miss Pell, can you let it run around for me? ”
When Pei Pei heard this, she immediately waved her hand at Thomson.
Thomson led the Triple Crown champion into the stadium with a very good eye and began the regular training in the afternoon.
The table of the Triple Crown is still very good compared to the morning. Pei Pei quietly glanced at Charter out of the corner of her eye, and she could see it. Chatter's face moved with obvious intent.
After a lap of warm-up for the Treble, Charter pulled a timer out of his pocket and headed for Thomson.
"You ride it for another lap. This time, try to get the best out of the horse! Chatter, holding the timer in one hand, instructed Thomson.
Thomson nodded. The Triple Crown Champion walked back to the track on the www.biquge.info of the Pen Fun Pavilion.
There was a special horse boy waiting on the side of the track, and after the horse boy fired a gun, the Triple Crown champion jumped up again and enjoyed the fun of chasing the wind.
At the same time as the gun sounded, Chase pressed the timer -
Professional training grounds, a variety of track facilities, the Triple Crown is a one-mile grass track, it only took 56.8 seconds. Ran the whole course.
After Chat stopped the timer in his hand, looking at the time displayed on the timer, he excitedly shouted "good!" ”
Immediately afterward, he rushed to Thomson at the finish line, "Let the horse recover and run the dirt track again." ”
Thomson made an "ok" gesture from afar, then slipped around a few corners with the Triple Crown before returning to the www.biquge.info of Pen Fun on another dirt track.
Cate pinched the timer in his hand and stood beside Ma Tong, he looked up and asked Thomson, "Are you ready?" ”
Thomson nodded, staring straight ahead intently, ready to sprint.
Ma Tong fired a gun. The Triple Crown shot out –
The Triple Crown winner continued to excel on the dirt track, with a one-mile time of 57.2 seconds.
The joy on Chatter's face was palpable. He excitedly ran back to Pei Pei and shouted, "Lucky young lady, you have bought a good horse!" Wow, oh my! I can't believe it's only two years old, and only adult horses over the age of three can do that! If trained properly, this horse definitely has the potential to become a king when he becomes an adult! The Triple Crown? It's a bit ridiculous, but. Just because it has the potential to be a champion horse, I am more than happy to be its Marseille agent! ”
All day down. I have contacted three Marseille agents in succession, and this is the first Marseille agent to take the initiative to represent the Treble. Pei Pei smiled when she heard this: "Don't get excited. Mr. Wilkes! As a horse owner, I'm glad you have such a high eye on the Triple Crown, so let's get out of here and sit down in a café and talk about the broker contract in detail. ”
"Yes, come with me! I know where there are good cafes around here. Charter replied with a smile.
After the group left the Philadelphia Racetrack Park Casino, Chatter Wilkes, who was familiar with the house, came to a café not far away, and after ordering coffee, while waiting for the coffee to be served, Pei Pei gave a look to Hashim, the lawyer next to him.
"This is my lawyer, Mr. Hashim Edelman, who will draw up the formal contract after we have negotiated the details of the broker contract in a short time." Pei Pei introduced to Chat.
In the process of walking all the way to this quiet café, Chate had already calmed down, he smiled and nodded, took out a Wen Jiàn folder from his backpack, handed it to Pei Pei and said, "This is my charging standard and service content, you can take a look at it first." ”
Pei Pei smiled and took the text folder, looked through and studied it.
The first page lists Charter's services, listing the fees for the discretionary services and the various tiered services, and it is clear that the fees for the discretionary services are much more cost-effective. The option is to apply for a one-year or multi-year visa, and in addition to paying Charter's $80,000 annual salary, there is also a 4% bonus share.
Of course, the services include registration for various races, public relations for local Jockey Clubs, media promotion, venue reservations, etc., and even off-course horse racing betting. Public relations service of the field!
Although the annual salary feels a bit expensive, Pei Pei still feels very satisfied with the other content.
Pei Pei continued to turn the next page and looked.
Some of the terms listed on this second page, Pei Pei is a little reluctant, what agency advertising endorsements and the like, media-related commissions and the like! Pei Pei was reluctant to give these rights to Chatter, so she closed the jiàn folder and handed it to the lawyer next to her, Hashim, and motioned for him to look at it too.
And then. Pei Pei smiled at Charter: "Can you explain what it means to bet on off-field horse racing. Is there a PR service for the field? ”
At this time, the waiter had already brought the coffee and placed it in front of everyone.
Chater picked up the coffee in front of him. After taking a sip, he replied with a smile, "Miss Pell." You may not be aware of why Marseille has become the second most popular sport in the United States. There are 154 racetracks in the U.S. that hold commercial betting licenses, and more than 103,000 horse races are held every year, ranking first in the world! According to statistics, the total annual investment of racecourses in the horse racing industry exceeds 5 billion US dollars, and the fundamental reason for this is that commercial horse racing is recognized by the law of all states in the United States! ”
After taking another sip of coffee, Chater continued: "Commercial horse racing, legal betting. Horse! Be aware that in the United States there are only a limited number of states where gambling can be legal. Outside of Bo. Most interstate laws do not recognize gambling. Bo legit! That's why there is the so-called 'underground' gambling industry, 'underground' gambling boxing industry, and so on. ”
Speaking of this, Charter smiled faintly, he put down the coffee cup in his hand, and continued: "The cake of commercial horse racing is so big! The main source of profit for racetracks is bets placed by people across the United States, so the owners of these racetracks are also legitimate gambling owners. You know, the odds on each horse are carefully calculated by professional actuary! In the run-up to the annual Triple Crown, there is also a thrilling clash between the gambling owners, who, in addition to making money from the public, bet on their favourite horses and then engage in a secret battle and game. So. A qualified Marseille agent, in addition to the obvious services I have listed, is the most important thing - how to deal with these gambling owners! ”
Although Charter was not as thorough as he said. But this voice-over Pei Pei has already understood.
After she nodded, she didn't continue to ask, but changed the topic and said with a smile: "Mr. Wilkes, I have read all your service fee schedules, and my opinion is that in addition to the power of delegation for advertising endorsement and the right of authorization related to the media, I can accept the other conditions listed above." If we can agree on this, then we can now entrust the lawyer next to me to start drawing up a formal contract. ”
After Chatter listened. I thought about it as I drank my coffee.
Pei Pei quietly dispersed her consciousness, secretly influencing Chatter's decision.
A moment later. Chater put down his coffee cup and reached for Pei Pei. Smiled: "Ok! Miss Pell, happy to work with! ”
Pei Pei smiled with satisfaction, stretched out her hand and shook it back: "Happy cooperation!" ”
Then, lawyer Hashem turned on his laptop and drew up a formal contract with his fingers on what the two had just finalized. The contract was tentatively set for one year, and after Hashem turned his laptop screen and gave his boss and Chatter a look, both of whom said they had no objection to the contract, Hashem saved the contract text on a memory card. Then, he said he was going to find a convenience store to print out the contract.
After Pei Pei nodded in agreement, Hashem pulled out the memory card and walked out of the café door.
While waiting for Hashem to return, Pei Pei and Chase had a good conversation.
A quarter of an hour later, Hashem returned to the café with the copy of the contract that had just been printed.
After the contract was officially signed, Pei Pei handed over all the application materials for the Triple Crown to Charter. In the year from this moment on, the Treble title will be officially tied to Charter, and as for the track arrangement that Pei Pei is worried about during the official race, Charterer said with a smile that it will all be handled by him.
After sending Chartere away, Pei Pei smiled with satisfaction, and then told Reese to inform Thomson of the result. After all – Thomson, a trainer and rider, had much more time to deal with than she did with Charte, the Marseille agent! (To be continued)
