Seeing Chang Wei's disapproving look, Harmon pouted: "What?" People eliminated you, but you still insist on believing that they will win? Shouldn't you silently pray that Duke will be eliminated by Michigan? ”

Chang Wei hurriedly raised his hand in surrender, and said "righteous words": "I just think your cheering action is a bit funny, believe me, my heart has always insisted that Duke will be eliminated and miss the finals." ”

Chang Wei's attitude made Harmon happy again, and she jumped to the side to make coffee. But Chang Wei sat down, when he said that sentence just now, he could only be regarded as appeasing his girlfriend, but now that he looks back and thinks about it, it seems that it is not impossible for Duke to be eliminated in this year's semifinals!

He suddenly realizes that his rebirth has subtly changed many things, most importantly by poaching Maddie, Battier, and Brand to Villanova. Maddie is okay to say that he entered the NBA as a high school student in his previous life, and now he has played in the NCAA for one more year, and his rank has improved a lot, but for the time being, it can only affect the NBA, and Chang Wei can't manage so much, so the key point is still on Battier and Brand.

If Chang Wei had not been reborn, Battier and Brand would have defected to the old K in 1997 and formed a super team with Langton, Avery and Margeti, who are still in the team. Although they reached the Division Finals, Finals, and Division Final Four in the 1997-2000 seasons, which led to Brand and Margeti leaving the school in 1999 to participate in the draft, they managed to win the championship in the 2000-2001 season, and Battier was crowned the Final Four MOP.

Before they won the title, the 1998-99 season was the best year for the Super Duke team, as they reached the finals but lost to Hamilton's Connecticut. But now it's different, they don't have Battier, they don't have Brand, the overall strength of the team has dropped more than one notch, Chang Wei doesn't remember the specific situation of Duke against Michigan State University in the semifinals in his previous life, but those who can come to this point are not weak, will Duke still eliminate his opponent like in his previous life, and then compete with Connecticut for the championship? If you think about it, it seems that there is a real possibility of losing!

At this time, Harmon happened to come over with coffee, and at a glance, she saw the strange smile on Chang Wei's face, and she asked a little puzzled, "What were you thinking just now?" Why is it so strange to laugh? ”

Chang Wei glanced at her, coughed dryly, and began to pretend to be a magic stick: "Do you know what happens when a butterfly flapps its wings in Brazil?" Harmon burst out laughing and reached out to touch Chang Wei's forehead: "I said you shouldn't have a fever, right?" Where is there a butterfly in Brazil that flapps its wings? ”

Well, I can't afford to talk to a cute girl about such a lofty topic! Under Harmon's questioning, Chang Wei was helpless, he said: "These are the words of the American meteorologist Edward Lorenz in a paper in 1963, the original text is 'A seagull flapping its wings is enough to change the weather forever.'" Only later in his speeches and essays he changed the sentence to 'A butterfly flapping its wings in Brazil can cause a tornado in Texas a month later.......'"

"And then? What's your business? Harmon was still a little confused, feeling that Chang Wei might have his brain in water.

Chang Wei didn't explain, but changed the topic: "Do you want to take you to earn some pocket money?" ”

Hamon's eyes lit up immediately, although she has a good family background, but the pocket money is very small, this time she came to Florida with Chang Wei to watch the game or grinded with her father and mother for a long time to barely make up enough funds, and now when she heard Chang Wei say that she could earn some pocket money, Harmon suddenly looked at him like a little golden man who kept throwing money.

When Chang Wei put a rough leaflet in front of her, Harmon couldn't wait to beat him twice, thinking what it was, this is a direct bet on the periphery! Chang Wei's face didn't blush, and he said vigorously: "I can't play the big and small points, so I won't go to the casino or something, this is the peripheral of this hotel in private, that is, to win or lose, with the prediction of the two of us on the game, it must be a heavy bet!" Isn't it trivial to earn some pocket money? ”

Harmon frowned, and after a while, he said, "How much money are you going to make?" ”

Chang Wei laughed and stretched out three fingers, and Harmon sighed: "Three hundred dollars, that's okay, I don't feel sorry if I lose." But Chang Wei shook his head and said very calmly: "No, I want to pay $3,000." ”

"Poof!" Harmon almost squirted out the coffee she had just drunk, but even then, she choked and coughed. Finally relieving herself, she slapped Chang Wei on the back and said angrily: "Your savings seem to be about the same amount, right?" Are you planning to smash your entire wealth into it? How will you eat when you go back in case you lose? ”

Chang Wei smiled: "It's okay, you have to believe in my level, the team I bet on will definitely win!" ”

Although Chang Wei has patted her chest, Harmon is still skeptical, originally she planned to join in the fun, but now think about it, what if Chang Wei loses all? It's better to save a little yourself, and at least you can lend him some money when the time comes, right?

Harmon was instigated, but Chang Wei was still very excited, and he hurried to bet on both games, after all, they were going to close soon. However, Chang Wei was still more cautious, although he was confident in front of Hamon, but he did not dare to guarantee that Duke would not be able to defeat the University of Michigan, so he happily divided the $3,000 into two parts, of which $1,000 won in Michigan and $2,000 won in the University of Connecticut.

Although Connecticut's odds are relatively low, Chang Wei believes that the $2,000 investment must be nine out of ten, because he only changed Duke's trajectory, and Connecticut and Ohio were not affected by the tornado set off by his butterfly. He can't be sure if the extra $1,000 can generate additional income, in case Langton or Margety casually explodes into a small universe, isn't Michigan going to kneel directly?

But even if the $1,000 is lost, Connecticut is still firmly guaranteed! Besides, if the final is Duke VS Connecticut like in the previous life, then won't it all be earned back by then? So Chang Wei still admires his decision, and it is already a sure thing to eat and drink spicy next season.
