Chapter 457: The Truth of the Matter

"Win or lose?"

Takato muttered the word softly.

The bookmaker's offer is a handicap of 3 goals, and with Maritimo's current form, it is not difficult to break through the handicap.

It is foreseeable that a large number of fans and gambling dogs will bet on the upper handicap, and if at this time, someone has bet a huge amount of money on the lower handicap, then he will make a lot of money.

Although under the control of actuary, the upper and lower handicap are basically in an equilibrium range, and there will not be a huge gap like the odds of winning and losing, as long as the bet is large enough, then it can also make a lot of money.

Moreover, the advantage of winning and losing the handicap is that the final result is still a strong team winning, but the score is not as big as expected, which avoids the appearance of an upset, and it will not be too suspicious and there is a risk of exposure.

In recent years, every time there is a big tournament such as the World Cup, there will always be some weird handicaps, as well as games that everyone can't understand, and the reason for this is probably that there are external forces interfering in the game.

In the 2018 World Cup in Russia, there were 9 1:0 scores in the first 20 group games, basically winning and losing, including many matches of strong teams such as Spain, Portugal, and Uruguay. ”

Unlike the general belief that match-fixing is operated by bookmakers, in fact, the biggest victim of match-fixing is the bookmakers themselves. At that time, the A and B league was full of black whistles of match-fixing, which was called the "fake B" league, and the bookmakers were frightened, and finally they didn't dare to open the domestic league handicap!

Big bookmakers hardly take the initiative to manipulate the game, because the risk is too high, and the bookmaker's way of making money is actually very simple, two words - margin.

The main trick is to balance the weight of the player's bet, like a scale, no matter what the final outcome is, there will be a profit.

They just need to make money steadily, there is no need to take risks, and the price paid for buying teams, players, and referees is very high, and it is easy to be exposed.

For the gaming industry, the value of a "license" cannot be measured in money!

The reason why the bookmaker's handicap is so accurate is because people have a lot of rich information and insider information, and in the information age, intelligence means wealth. Coupled with the joint operation of actuaries, traders, and senior experts, of course, the handicap will be open to ten.

Fans and gambling dogs are just using their personal hobbies to challenge the work of other professional teams, so how can they not lose money?

After thinking too much, Gao Yuan took his thoughts back, he already understood what Chen Wenbin and Jiang Jianzhang behind him wanted to do.

Recently, the economy has been sluggish, Jiang Jianzhang's business operation has encountered great difficulties, and he urgently needs a large amount of capital injection, so he takes a risk and wants to play a match-fixing game.

They chose a smart way to play and win and lose.

This will not cause much impact and be noticed, and at the same time it will be easier to operate.

You only need to get one or two key players.

So, they found Wenjun.

On the one hand, Wen Jun can basically lock the position of the starting central defender, and there is no more convenient way to control the handicap than to get the central defender.

Because a goal is not something that a frontcourt player can score if he wants to, but a conceded goal is something that a defender can concede if he wants to, and it only takes a mistake or a late recovery to cause a goal to be lost.

If the frontcourt players are not in good shape and can't score more than 3 goals, then they will win the bet; If you really score 4 or 5, it only takes one or two mistakes from the central defender to control the score within 3 goals.

On the other hand, Wen Jun is very young and relatively simple, and they make up a bunch of plausible reasons to make it difficult to distinguish between Wen Jun and the fake. And Wen Jun is not a descendant brought by Gao Yuan from DB, as a player from China when Chen Wenbin was originally operated, he knows Wen Jun better and is easier to control.

Sure enough, his love for the team and his gratitude to Gao Yuan made Wen Jun have to agree to them.

It's just that they underestimated Wen Jun's professionalism and spirit, and also underestimated Gao Yuan's insight, and this conspiracy was discovered by Gao Yuan in time.

Gao Yuan pondered for a long time, it is easy to stop match-fixing now, and it is not difficult to expose and report the criminal behavior of Chen Wenbin and Jiang Jianzhang behind the scenes, but is it in the interests of the team to do so?

Chen Wenbin is not wrong about one thing, the team's funds are stretched, since Gao Yuan became the owner, the club has earned more, but spent more, and the construction of a new stadium alone is a bottomless pit! And there are more development plans that I have not put into action, such as building a football school, upgrading the software and hardware facilities of the club base, and signing a satellite club......

It's all going to cost money!

Of course, Gao Yuan will not play match-fixing! He is just taking advantage of the situation, wanting to turn bad things into good things, looking for a way to maximize his own interests!

In addition, this matter is not as easy to solve as it seems on the surface.

If he went to Jiang Jianzhang to settle accounts, he would definitely pretend to be stupid, and even throw Chen Wenbin away as an outcast without hesitation.

If he reports it to the relevant authorities, Maritimo will be greeted by an investigation and punishment, and will likely be banned from European competitions for the next few years, and the title of league champion may also be stripped of it, although the title is played on its own.

What's more, the team's reputation will be fatally affected, sponsors will terminate their contracts, domestic broadcasters will blacklist the team, and then only chicken feathers will be left.

Therefore, this matter cannot be said to be right or wrong, only to look at the pros and cons.

And he wants to take advantage of the fire and find ways to turn bad things into good things.

Gao Yuan made up his mind, had a rough plan in his heart, and said to Wen Jun: "I want you to do me a favor......"

That night, Wen Jun, who looked worried, came to Chen Wenbin's room.

told the other party with a sad face that he was a little worried and a little scared.

Seeing that Wen Jun was about to retreat, Chen Wenbin was very anxious, and hurriedly used his three-inch tongue again, his tongue was like a spring, he washed Wen Jun's brain from the inside out, analyzed the various benefits in detail, and told Wen Jun that with the big boss Jiang Jianzhang behind his back, there is nothing to be afraid of, and he will definitely not be able to treat you badly!

After talking for more than half an hour, Wen Juncai finally made up his mind again, which also made Chen Wenbin breathe a sigh of relief.

It's just that Chen Wenbin didn't know that everything he just said was transmitted to the listening device not far away by the receiver that Wenjun stuck to the root of his thigh.

Pelliati recorded all these words under Takato's instructions.

However, Gao Yuan also knows that this evidence alone is far from it, and even illegal recordings may not be accepted by the court. He still has a lot of work to do if he wants to fix a complete chain of evidence.

Fortunately, Takato has friends!

Although these friends are friendships, although they don't talk about friendship, they only talk about interests.

"Hello, Mr. Mendez, I would like to ask you for a favor......"
