With a smile in his heart, Locke knew that there was a good show to watch today, both for him and for someone.

What then left Locke speechless was that even the elevator doors were covered with countless 5s of printed film connected together.

Until finally, under the leadership of the waiter, he came to Carrington's private room.

The private rooms are not enclosed, but are connected to the VIP area, separated by three stairs and a glass wall.

"Locke, this way."

Carter Adrian greeted Locke, and heard Fallon Carrington say that he had proposed to invite him this time.

Locke is no stranger to him, born in Los Angeles, and has a lot of connections in the West Coast business district, and before Locke bought a 2.6% stake in Wells Fargo from him.

Shaking hands with the other party with a smile, Locke smiled at Carter again: "I didn't expect you to be very generous and directly charter such a large private room." ”

"I'm just being generous to others, the private room was provided by Jeff, but the money wasn't from him." Carter shrugged his shoulders and said, "The owner of the stadium wants to sell the stadium to relieve the financial pressure, so he asked Jeff to be a middleman." ”

Locke nodded knowingly, then greeted Fallon Carrington in the private room, chatted a few words, and sat down in the front row of the box.

A few people were chatting casually, and suddenly, the stadium erupted into deafening cheers, and the players of the two teams were walking out of the players' tunnel.

Locke glanced at the VIP soft seating area under the private room, and a man and a woman stood up and cheered with some excitement.

"Locke, I heard you're planning to buy Kerry's shares in Rich Fargo?" Carter asked.

"That's right, I'm very interested in his shares, but his asking price is very high, and I don't want to be wronged."

"As far as I know, Kerry lost a lot of money on his investments in the UK last year, and several banks forced him to repay." Fallon Carrington says:

"I've heard that he borrowed a temporary loan from somewhere, and wanted to test how attached you are to shares."

"The shares in your hands are enough to control the board of directors, so there is no need to continue to eat so many shares." Carter said: "Your behavior is just the right opportunity for people like Kerry to open their mouths." ”

"That's right, I've already made the last offer for him, and I won't pay a penny more."

Locke said slowly: "And whether or not I can successfully acquire his 4.7% stake, I am ready to formally intervene in the management and operation of Wells Fargo at the next shareholders' meeting." ”

"Wow, that's a big decision." Carter said: "Those banking guys are probably going to shout wolf. ”

"I'm just a newbie to the banking industry, and they're probably waiting to see my jokes." Locke shrugged his shoulders: "I've reached out to some shareholders to make sure I'm getting enough support, and so far it's been good." ”

Before the game officially began, several people gathered together to chat, and a waiter in the box casually changed a series of music accompanied by 'woo woo woo'.

"But don't trust the promises of the shareholders too much, as far as I know, quite a few of them are wall-to-wall." Carter said with a laugh.

"That's why I'm trying to buy Kerry's stake to make sure that I have enough advantages, and that the financial problems he has are not something that can be solved by dismantling a $10 million or two." Locke said to me, "At least double it." ”

At the same time, a man and a woman on the VIP soft seat more than a meter in front of them felt that the time was almost up, and the woman said: "Is it wrong to say that you don't like rugby now?" ”

"yes, the worst timing." The man cooperated.

"I'm sorry dear, I just find it a little boring to be idle."

"You're not kidding, you're so excited when you see the tickets!"

"I'm excited, but I really can't understand it, this game ......"

"Okay, let's not bother with the ball game, let's play something else." The man finally said.

Then he looked at the ordinary seat in front of him, and saw that the salesman threw beer, fried chicken, fries, etc. to customers from time to time, and suddenly said:

"So, do you want to bet, can that guy catch it?"

"No problem, I bet he'll catch it."

"Then I'll bet he won't catch it, a dollar at a time."

Locke's face was calm, and a thoughtful look flashed in his eyes, while Carter seemed to be attracted by the two men, and stopped watching the game, just staring at the salesman and the audience who were shopping.

"God, it's only four or five meters, this idiot can actually throw it away, how do you know!" The woman said.

"That guy won't shoot, he just knocked the old lady's glasses crooked." The man said.

"Okay." The woman thought for a while, looked at the audience in the opposite audience and played human waves, and said: "Look at that fat man in a football uniform, I bet that he is drunk, can't stand up, and can't play human waves." ”

"Are you sure, the team he supports is on the attack!"

"Come or not!"

“OK。”

The next moment the whistle sounded, and the audience in front of them all stood up and sat down to play with the crowd, but the fat man pointed by the woman remained motionless in place.

"Really!?"

"I know all about drunks." The woman said with a smile.

"Are you a fan or not, you are embarrassed to say that you are a fan!" The man shouted loudly at this time, and at the same time attracted more attention.

"Look over there." At this time, the man pointed to a hot young girl more than ten meters away, who was getting up from her seat, as if she was about to go to the bathroom.

"We bet on how many men will look back at which girl, and only count the one on the side of the aisle, and the closest number wins."

"At least eight!" The girl said without hesitation.

"I think it's three." The man said.

"I'll bet six." Carter suddenly interjected at this time, and when the man and woman turned around, they stretched out their hands and pointed at Locke, indicating that it was Locke who spoke.

Locke glanced at Carter, and he had the impression that this guy was not very gambling, and now doing so had already made him confirm something.

After making a note on the other party in the small notebook, Locke smiled and said, "I can participate." ”

"Of course it's fine, I'm Will, this is Margot, this ......"

"Locke, I think at least five people will watch."

"So here we go." Watching the girl come to the staircase aisle, several people began to count.

"One"

"Two"

……

"Seven!"

"yes, I'm the closest, I know the ones best." Margot stood up and raised her hands: "Give the money, give the money." ”

With a wave of his hand, Locke took out ten dollars and gave it to Margot, and continued, "Do you want to continue, I bet a thousand dollars on the success of this attack." ”

"Wow, that's a little bigger." There was a lot of noise, but Will and Margot looked at each other, and after a moment of hesitation, they pulled out a stack of cash: "Okay, a thousand dollars, I bet this attack won't be successful." ”

As a result, the attack was stopped, and Locke smiled and pulled out a thousand dollars from his wallet. He smiled and said, "Continue?" ”

"No problem, this time we'll bet on which side will foul first." Will thought for a moment and said.

"Then I'll choose the defensive side, $10,000." Locke continued.

"Then I'll choose the attacking side."

In the end, the attacker fouled first, and Locke glanced at Ashley with a smile, then took $10,000 from her bag and handed it to the other party.

Locke didn't look like he was in a hurry to lose the bet, but he then raised the bet to $50,000: "$50,000, pass or run." ”

"Wow." Margot opened her mouth and sighed.

"He must have drunk too much." Will thought for a moment: "I choose to pass. ”

"Then I'll run." Locke Road.

After a while, Locke said, "It seems that I started to run, do I continue to come?" ”

"Do you think it's time to run?" Will showed an unconvinced look: "100,000 dollars, I bet they can kick it." ”

"The odds of getting a kick are relatively high, but I still believe in luck." Locke laughed: "I can't choose to play. ”

"Oh!!"

After waiting for a while, the ball still didn't hit, and it was stopped.

"As I said, now is the time when I'm lucky, and if I'm you, I'll choose moderation." Locke said and glanced at a man next to the VIP seat, he knew that this person was also sent by the owner behind this game.

Then he said to Ashley, "Honey, let's have a drink first." ”
