Chapter 350: Do You Dare to Bet?
Li Yunhai's righteous and stern words did not scare the black man with dirty braids in front of him.
Professor Ni and the others all gathered around and stopped him from leaving.
Li Yunhai didn't want to talk to this black man, so he told Zhuang Yong a few words.
Zhuang Yong said that he understood, stepped forward and grabbed the black man's wrist, then pulled under the other party's clothes, and took out a Sihai brand translation machine.
The crowd of onlookers let out a cheer and blamed the black people for being wrong.
The dirty braids were caught red-handed, and instead of being ashamed, they scolded and scolded. Zero Yuan is still so arrogant, with a look of wanting to beat people, he almost engraved the word robber on the door of his head.
Li Yunhai called the staff of the organizing committee over and explained the situation.
The organizing committee was about to kick out the stadium with dirty braids.
After this incident, this Chinese booth full of Chinese and English bilingual has become an alternative at CES.
Many foreigners came to see, some exclaimed, others questioned.
More foreigners, even unbelievable, are able to make so many high-end electronic products.
The same doubts and incomprehensions, Li Yunhai they also encountered at the Hannover Electronics Exhibition, but the electronics exhibition was smaller than this, and there were not so many strange people who came over to express their brainless thoughts.
Shen Xiulan and the others were all indignant, saying what happened to these foreigners? Can't see us Chinese, okay? Shouldn't we Chinese make something good? We have built two bombs and one satellite, let alone such electronic products?
Professor Ni smiled and said, "Don't care what they say. We just need to do our own thing. ”
Li Yunhai said: "This is the meaning of us going abroad to participate in the exhibition. We want people all over the world to know that the electronic products made by our Chinese are better than their products. If we only participate in the Canton Fair, no matter how many products we export, we will not be able to make a name for ourselves in the world. ”
Because the exported products are generally repackaged according to the requirements of the buyers, even if they sell well locally, the locals may not care where the products are manufactured.
It is of great significance to go abroad to participate in the exhibition, and Sihai Group has made the world realize the advanced value of Chinese manufacturing.
For a long time, in the eyes of foreigners, there are only cheap daily chemical products and agricultural and sideline products.
Products in the high-tech field like this are the preserve of Westerners.
In fact, our country has been absent from the exhibition of modern electronic products.
Whether it is the Hannover Electronics Show or the CES Electronics Show in Las Vegas, Sihai Group is the first Chinese exhibitor.
Li Yunhai deliberately used Chinese and English marks on the propaganda slogan, just to let the world know that this is a Chinese booth!
The two Mi people stood in front of the Longteng PC of the four seas, chatting non-stop.
From their chat, they learned that they were the managers of a local PC manufacturing company in the United States, and when they were setting up the exhibition, they were attracted by the noise just now, and they felt very novel after seeing the PC in the Chinese booth.
A short white man said, "Mike, do you believe that the Chinese can make PCs?" ”
Another tall white man said, "Oh, James, they can definitely produce it, but the spare parts must be imported from us." And their computers may only be equivalent to the level we were ten years ago! I bet their PCs are still using the 8008 chip that we have long since eliminated! ”
"Haha, that's what I thought too. I don't know who gave them the courage to dare to participate in such a high-end electronics exhibition? ”
"I bet they won't even sell a PC! Hahaha! ”
Mike laughs at the PCs of the Four Seas Group and doesn't care that the owners of these PCs are nearby.
Li Yunhai walked over and said in fluent English: "Then make a bet!" For every PC we sell, you can get me a burger! This is a gambling city, and you keep saying that you are gambling, so I believe you can afford to gamble on a burger, right? ”
Mike spread his hands with a nonchalant expression: "OK, no problem!" What if you can't even sell a PC? What are you going to lose to me? ”
Li Yunhai said: "If we can't even sell a PC, I'll lose you $10,000!" A burger bets $10,000, that's a big bet, right? I don't know if you dare to bet? ”
Mike was agitated and said, "Okay, I'm betting with you!" ”
Li Yunhai smiled slightly, walked to the computer typewriter, turned on the machine, quickly printed out a contract, picked up the pen and signed his name on it in a chic manner, and then handed the pen to Mike.
Mike read it first and found that there were no mistakes or omissions in the contract document, it was indeed the treaty they had just agreed on, so he wrote his name on it.
Li Yunhai said: "I hope you are a citizen of the United States who abides by the contract and will not embarrass you people!" I also hope you have enough dollars to afford a burger! ”
Offended, Mike took out his wallet on the spot, pointed to a thick stack of dollars inside, and said, "Look! It's all money! That's enough to buy a few thousand burgers! ”
Li Yunhai smiled: "Very good! Mr. Mike, a bet is just like a contract, it's a contract! We should both comply. ”
He looked at James, "This gentleman, do you want to participate?" I'll print out another copy of the contract and sign it between us, shall we? It's not enough to eat a hamburger, I also want to drink Coke. ”
James laughed and said, "Okay! I'd love to make this bet too! I'd like to take a different approach, though. I want to bet on Mike to win! How many odds do you dare to give? ”
Li Yunhai's eyes lit up and said, "One pays ten!" How much do you want to bet? ”
James said, "I'm betting $100,000!" If I win, I'll be a millionaire! I hope you can get this much compensation! ”
Li Yunhai said: "$100,000? Very good! Hopefully it won't break the bank! ”
Li Yunhai printed out another gambling contract and signed it with James.
He saw that there were still many people watching, so he said loudly: "We have come to the casino, and we are willing to make a bet with everyone!" You can bet as much as you want! You can bet on me to win, or you can bet on Mike and James to win! If it's a bet on them to win, I'm willing to pay 10 for 10! You bet $1, I'm willing to pay $10! ”
Both Mike and James said the Chinese were crazy!
The people who watched the excitement smiled and did not make this bet.
Mike thought of something and said, "You can't arrange for your own people to buy their own PCs, that doesn't count!" ”
Li Yunhai said: "Please rest assured, we will receive orders, and the buyers of the orders are all certified by the organizing committee, and there are orders that are convincing!" ”
Both Mike and James said they had won.
They don't believe that a poor country from the third world can make any good computers, and at such a high-end electronics exhibition, Chinese computers will definitely not be sold!
Because even exhibitors from Western countries may not be able to open orders at this exhibition, so they are full of confidence.
Mike said: "I admire your courage to come to CES, but you can't open an order. ”
Li Yunhai patted the two gambling contracts in his hand and said, "Just have this!" If we can't open an order, we'll do it then. ”
Mike and James turned to leave.
Li Yunhai and the others spent a whole day setting up the booth properly.
After dinner in the evening, Li Yunhai came to Shen Xiulan and said that he was out shopping?
Shen Xiulan said: "Didn't you say that there is a lot of chaos here? What sin city, and the world's biggest gangster, what pornography, gambling, and all that, we dare to go out and walk around? ”
Li Yunhai said with a smile: "These are all things that can't be put on the table, and Las Vegas has been greatly improved in recent years, and there has been an electronics show recently, and there are many police patrols on the street." We just don't get into trouble. ”
Shen Xiulan actually wanted to go out for a walk, so she agreed.
The two walked out of the hotel and onto the street.
Li Yunhai came here for the first time, and he didn't know where to play, so when he came, he bought a map of urban transportation, took it out and looked at it, and walked along the Las Vegas Strip.
This is the longest street in the casino, 6.5 kilometers long, running through the entire city, and is lined with large themed hotels, which usually have casinos.
When the two of them passed by a hotel, they saw a free fire-breathing show and went up to watch it.
This is a casino hotel, and in order to attract tourists, these hotels will find ways to attract tourists with various free or paid shows, such as a fire-breathing show and a fountain show.
A few men dressed in strange costumes, holding a torch, kept spitting the wine in their mouths on the torch, the fire of the torch became more and more vigorous, and the flames rose several meters high, which was very scary.
Such a performance attracts a large number of tourists.
Recently, during the CES electronics show, exhibitors, buyers, and tourists came to more than 100,000 people, and this kind of free show is the most attractive.
Shen Xiulan said with a smile: "We also have this kind of performance in China!" There is also a fire and sword devouring performance! ”
Li Yunhai said: "Let's go to the casino and have a look, shall we?" ”
"Bet? Don't, right? ”
"Look, long insight. Small gambling is pleasant, big gambling hurts the body, big gambling is gone, just have fun, don't think about getting rich. Take a tour and exchange a few chips as souvenirs. You say, don't you? ”
"Okay!"
Li Yunhai naturally held her hand.
Shen Xiulan tugged lightly, but didn't pull it out.
Li Yunhai said: "There are too many people, be careful to get separated!" ”
Shen Xiulan saw that the neighborhood was full of foreign tourists, so she had to let him come.
The two came to the first floor of the hotel.
The casino is splendidly decorated to resemble a large amusement supermarket.
Li Yunhai changed the chips for a hundred dollars and said, "Let's play!" No matter how lucky we are, we'll lose the 100 dollars and leave. ”
The two came to the slot machine, Li Yunhai put the chips into the coin slot and asked Shen Xiulan to pull the lever.
Shen Xiulan said: "I don't know how to play." ”
Li Yunhai said: "You just pull this lever." Patterns appear on this screen, and the more identical patterns we have, the more we win. ”
Shen Xiulan tried to pull down the lever.
The slot machine makes a sound, and the patterns on the screen roll faster and faster, and then slow down.
When the pattern was still, Li Yunhai smiled: "You have good luck!" We won! ”
"Huh? Is this a win? ”
The sound of coins clinking and falling and striking hit their eardrums, and it was really the sound of money falling to the ground!
Li Yunhai said with a smile: "You have good luck, come again!" ”
Shen Xiulan thinks this is quite fun, just like playing a game console, it's simple, and the stakes are not big.
Slot machines only need one coin each time, play small, win or lose much, generally speaking, if you are lucky, you can make a little money.
Shen Xiulan pulled ten rods in a row, losing and winning, and in the end, she won 40 coins.
"Why are you winning more and more? I can't spend all this coin! ”
"Go see something else."
The two of them came to the hall, where there were many tables, each of which was full of people.
Li Yunhai took Shen Xiulan's hand and came to a table.
"What's this for?" Shen Xiulan had never been exposed to this kind of thing.
Li Yunhai said: "Bet on the size!" It's very simple, you think the dealer will open a few points, you can bet a few points, or you can only bet on the big or small. ”
Shen Xiulan asked, "How can it be considered big?" How is it small? ”
Li Yunhai said: "The dealer has a total of three dice, and the maximum value of each dice is six. If the number of points added together is less than or equal to 10, it is considered small; 11 or more is considered large. You can bet big or small. ”
Shen Xiulan said: "1 to 10 are small, 11 to 18 is big?" Then the winning side of betting on the small must be bigger! ”
Li Yunhai said: "This is metaphysics. ”
Shen Xiulan said: "Then I'll bet on the small!" ”
She bet all the 40 coins she had just won on the small one.
These coins are all 25 cents, 40 coins, or 10 dollars.
After the dealer waits for everyone to buy and leave, shake the dice clock, and then open the size.
"Small!" Shen Xiulan pointed to the three dice and smiled happily, "Yunhai, we won!" ”
Li Yunhai smiled: "Not bad! Go on! ”
Shen Xiulan only bets with the chips she has won.
Unexpectedly, she was particularly lucky, and won another game.
"I'm only betting small!" Shen Xiulan chuckled, "Because the small one wins big!" If we lose, let's go, okay? ”
"Okay, listen to you, it's just fun anyway."
Shen Xiulan once again bet all the chips she had won on the small one.
Opened a small one!
Li Yunhai was amazed, thinking that Xiulan's luck was really good!
Shen Xiulan bet a few small handfuls in a row! Put the bet in the middle!
They went to play at other tables.
Shen Xiulan only used the money she won as a bet anyway.
The two unknowingly played for more than an hour, and finally settled, and actually won more than $500!
"Aha! We can still win! Shen Xiulan took the money in exchange and grinned, "This is equivalent to a month's salary for me!" ”
"If you win, do you want to have a treat?"
"Good! What do you want to eat? ”
"Going out for a walk, I don't know what's good here."
The two walked out of the hotel and onto the street.
They arrive at a dessert shop with a wide variety of desserts, including puffs, sugar cubes, fruit tarts, soufflés and apple pies.
Shen Xiulan smiled: "Just eat this, right?" It looks delicious. ”
Li Yunhai said okay.
Shen Xiulan bought some desserts and spent $30, but she was distressed: "The consumption here is really high!" Just a few of them cost $30. ”
Li Yunhai said: "Earn dollars, spend dollars, there is nothing wrong." ”
"However, even in China, 30 yuan is very expensive, okay?"
"Well, the prices here are really high."
Shen Xiulan fed a piece of puff to Li Yunhai to eat.
Li Yunhai took a bite and said, "It's not bad." As sweet as your mouth! ”
Shen Xiulan glanced at him: "You, you are obviously a serious person, and you have to say everything improperly!" ”
Li Yunhai said: "In front of you, I don't need to pretend to be serious!" ”
The two of you ate the dessert in one bite and I ate it in one bite.
Back at the hotel, the hallway was empty.
Li Yunhai said seriously: "Xiulan, come to my room, I still have some work to discuss with you." ”
Shen Xiulan thought that he really wanted to talk about work, so she followed him into the room.
Li Yunhai closed the door and hugged her as soon as he turned around.
Shen Xiulan sighed twice: "Sea of clouds!" ”
Li Yunhai ignored it, hugged her and walked to the bedroom.
Shen Xiulan tapped his chest: "Didn't you talk about work?" ”
"It's also important for us."
"I hate you! Day by day you know to lie to me! ”
Li Yunhai laughed.
The night in Las Vegas is filled with a kind of enchanting magic that makes you obsessed with it.
It's hard to imagine that this was once a desert with no people. Today's prosperity, the splendor of the night, you don't have time to think about its past!
Shen Xiulan didn't want to stay here overnight.
But when you play to the rise, where do you remember the time?
Where can I get out of bed?
She fell asleep in a daze, thinking that she would get up after a while.
As a result, I slept until dawn.
Shen Xiulan opened her eyes, looked at Li Yunhai lying beside her, sighed, and quickly sat up.
She pushed Li Yunhai and said, "Yunhai! Wake up! We're going to be late! ”
Li Yunhai had already adjusted his watch to the local time, he looked at his watch and said, "Don't worry, it's still early!" ”
The two got up and washed.
There was a knock on the door outside.
Li Yunhai knew that it must be Professor Ni and they were here.
Shen Xiulan said with a sad face: "What should I do? If they find me in your room, they'll guess! I'm dead! ”
Li Yunhai stroked her pretty face and said with a smile: "What are you afraid of?" You came to me early in the morning, can't you? ”
Only then did Shen Xiulan calm down and sit on the sofa in the living room.
Li Yunhai opened the door.
Professor Ni, Lin Xiaofeng, Zhao Jinping and others all came, and said with a smile: "Mr. Li, let's go, right?" ”
Li Yunhai said: "Okay! ”
As soon as Lin Xiaofeng entered the door, he saw Shen Xiulan in the room, and said, "Mr. Shen, you got up so early?" ”
Shen Xiulan forced herself to calm down and said, "Hmm." I prefer to pick a bed, change to an unfamiliar environment, and always can't sleep, so I wake up early. Let's go downstairs! ”
Li Yunhai counted the number of people, made sure that all the things he should bring were brought, went downstairs to have breakfast together, and then rushed to the exhibition hall.
This is the first day of CES, and as agreed before, they will win at least $15 million in orders today.
After arriving at the booth, Li Yunhai first counted the number of machines in the booth.
Anything can happen in this magical country.
Fortunately, the security of the pavilion at night was well done and nothing was lost. (End of chapter)
