Chapter 318: The King of Rome Is Willing to Gamble and Lose
Francisco Totti's losing bet: a public appearance in the AC Milan red and black stripe shirt or a €1 million donation to the 'Zhuoyang 18 Charity Fund'.
The first one he would never do, even the dead Totti wouldn't do that. The second was the only one he could keep, but Totti didn't want to, because a million was not a small amount to anyone, and taking it out of Totti's not-so-plump purse was tantamount to cutting meat.
As mentioned in the previous document, Totti is really unable to do personal business development because he does not have an agent and a brokerage team. is also a Nike contracted player, Totti's endorsement amount is a big difference between Ronaldo and Henry, and it is about the same level as Eto'o. In addition, his salary of 4 million sounds very good, but in fact, this 4 million is a salary, and all the income from the Club of Rome is covered by it, unlike Zhuo Yang and Kaka's contract amount of 6 million is only the base salary, and the rest has to be counted separately.
Excluding all kinds of investments and necessary expenses, Totti's disposable pocket money is actually about 1 million yuan per year. If he readily honors his bet, it means that he will have to live a 'poor' life on food and clothing for the rest of the year. No matter how poor he is, what about his son? Swear to Brassie, you are responsible for being beautiful like a flower, and I am responsible for making money to support my family?
Besides, even if you don't consider the amount of money, paying money means admitting defeat, where is the face of the dignified Roman king? If a person does not fall, borrowing money to draw thousands of treasures, he must not collapse this figure.
If you can, you can rely on it! Such a huge amount of cash private gambling contract is actually illegal, if Totti and Zhuo Yang were betting against each other at that time, who loses and who gives the other party 1 million, the judicial department would have troubled them a long time ago. But fortunately, there was no cash transfer when Zhuo Yang lost, and Totti did not pay Zhuo Yang 1 million when he lost, but donated it to charity, which is not only completely legal, but also tax-free.
Totti deliberately didn't answer Zhuo Yang's call, and used his own power to get the media not to speak out on this matter, just to wait for people's attention and interest to disappear for a while, and then go to Zhuo Yang to say goodbye, and give up.
But he never expected the Knights of the Round Table in Milan to come to the door so quickly.
After the round table reached a consensus, Franco Baresi communicated with Zhuo Yang by phone the next day, and then set off for Rome. After meeting Totti, Baresi clearly told him: This matter is no longer a private matter between you and Zhuo Yang, our round table group has taken over, and I hope you can give an explanation.
Totti is a little blind, the round table group and the lonely Zhuo Yang are completely different weights, and he has great ability to fight against the people at that table, none of those people are good at stubble, especially those old gangs, and Baresi in front of him is the oldest gang.
"Franco, let's be honest, if I honor my bet, I'll lose my face. You're a person from the past, so you should be able to understand my struggle. Totti said.
"That's right, I can understand, understand very much, we people, sometimes face is everything." Baresi seemed to be serious. "However, now that the Round Table Group has taken over the matter, if there is no satisfactory explanation, then all of us will lose face. So, Franco, I hope you understand. ”
Totti: "......"
The Round Table Group has some scruples about Totti's power, but once he decides to reach out, he will no longer be indecisive, and Totti is even more jealous of the Round Table Group, once these people really join forces and don't care about dealing with him, it is enough to make him ruined. What's more, he didn't take care of this matter in the first place.
After talking back and forth, Baresi did not give an inch, and Totti said: "Franco, you really can't be accommodating?" ”
"Of course it can be accommodating." Baresi said: "It's all people who scoop rice in one pot, and the Italian national team, we won't push you too much. Totti breathed a sigh of relief.
Baresi continued: "I only need your word now, and you promise me that you will pay this money. We'll then give you a vacation time, and we won't bother you as long as you can settle the matter satisfactorily before the first round of the new season starts. Otherwise......"
"How else?"
"Otherwise, our round table will pay 1 million euros to Zhuo Yang's charitable fund. The next thing has nothing to do with Zhuo Yang at all, it is a matter between you and us. Where to go, I hope you think clearly. ”
Totti: "......"
"I only need you to make a promise today, and you need to discuss the rest with Miss Zhuo Qiu, the host of the 'Zhuo Yang No. 18 Charity Fund' and Zhuo Yang's sister. As for how you save face from this matter, it depends on the effectiveness of your communication with Miss Zhuo. We do not participate in this roundtable, but we will always monitor and pay attention to it. ”
Totti let out a sigh of relief, he was very afraid of dealing with the round table group, and he also had a headache to deal with Zhuo Yang, but Zhuo Qiu ......, just a woman, and the most powerful women Totti had ever seen in his life were the club manager Miss Sensi and his spicy wife Brassy, but these two did not make him feel embarrassed.
As a result, Totti finally made a happy promise to Baresi that the matter must be resolved satisfactorily before the start of the new season, otherwise 1 million will be paid to the round table. Baresi returned satisfied, although it was only a verbal promise, but he believed in the account of Lai Zhuoyang, but he would never dare to say anything to the round table, unless he wanted to isolate himself from football and Italy.
However, Totti's prediction of Zhuo Qiu has a qualitative deviation, and the eldest sister is not as affectionate as Zhuo Yang, nor does she take care of her identity like the round table group. The eldest sister said directly to Totti: 1 million points can't be less, this is the bottom line, I will talk to you only if you agree with the bottom line, otherwise, you go to Baresi and Maldini to them. I'm busy......
The eldest sister also warned the two of them: I have reported the matter to UNICEF (United Nations Children's Fund) headquarters, and as a UNICEF Italy Goodwill Ambassador, Francisco Totti pledged but refused to pay. Now, not only UNICEF, but also relevant UN agencies have begun to pay attention to this matter.
The Zhuoyang No. 18 Charitable Foundation is almost equivalent to a branch of UNICEF, with independent accounting and independent operations, but the relevant business and donation arrangements are subject to UNICEF's guidance and supervision.
This hit Totti's soft underbelly, he is a person who needs to be fed, and he is most afraid of losing a reputation for fraudulent donations, so he will stink completely.
Sister wants everyone to understand that Zhuo Yang is not someone who wants to come up and make a bet, in front of Zhuo Yang, everyone must have a correct attitude, because he is not only not bullied, but also has a noble status.
Zhuo Yang was full of interest during a holiday, but Totti and the people in the round table group were not idle, constantly racking their brains for the 1 million, fighting openly and secretly, which was more tiring than playing in the league.
Zhuo Yang didn't directly confront Totti from beginning to end, not even on the phone, the bad guys and villains were all done by the round table group and the eldest sister. and skin, everything is finally settled today.
Totti pledged $1 million, the charity fund publicized and praised Totti in the media, and UNICEF also praised Totti as a role model for stardom, and expressed its heartfelt gratitude to the esteemed Mr. Totti on behalf of children around the world.
Although he was very distressed, he finally spent money to buy some good name, and Totti could only pinch his nose and admit it.
After thinking about it, Totti still called Zhuo Yang. "Zhuo Yang, we're still friends, right?"
"Of course, Franco, we have always been good friends, one yard to one yard, and it doesn't affect friendship."
"Alas, if you live to my age, you will know that sometimes you really can't help yourself." Totti is still making excuses.
"Hey Franco, are you interested in taking another gamble in the new season? You and me, let's see which of us scores more goals, or 1 million. ”
"Still betting??" Totti's hair stood on end. "No, no, no."
"Otherwise, two to one, I lost two million, and you are still one million, how about turning it over?" The temptation of obsession.
Totti hesitated, this business can obviously be done. But after a while: "Alas, forget it, don't play anymore, I'm tired, it's not good to gamble." ”
"Kokokoko......" Zhuo Yang smiled demonically on the other end of the phone.
Totti was finally smart, because he was glad he had made the decision not long after the start of the new season.
