Chapter 29: The 'Miserable Egg' Lampes Who Wants to Live a Good Life (Ask for Follow-up)
"Hello, Lampes, welcome to the Sky Sports Premier League column."
Sky Sports beauty host Georgie Thompson looked very sexy in a light and wild outfit, smiling and smiling.
'It's actually very simple, and we all know that you're betting on a Premier League winning team this season.
"I would like to ask, is this news true?"
Georgie Thompson smiled and smiled, "Are you really betting five thousand euros on Leicester City?" β
Sitting across from Georgie Thompson was a middle-aged man dressed in ordinary clothes, who shrugged his shoulders a little helplessly, "Yes, I did, here's my ticket." β
He pulled out a bookmaker ticket and handed it to Georgie Thompson.
After taking it, Georgie Thompson quickly pointed the ticket at the camera closest to him, in order to clearly show the contents to the audience.
She wants to prove that this episode of the show they did is not groundless rumors and ridicule, but it is true.
"Let's see, it's really Leicester City, five thousand euros."
Speaking of this, the smile on her face became even stronger, with a hint of incomprehension, "The odds of winning the championship are 1 in 5000." β
"This means that if Mr. Lampes's ticket is successful, he will receive a huge prize of 25 million euros."
"Even if you have to deduct a lot of taxes, the remaining money can still allow a family to live a life without worrying about food and clothing."
Then, Georgie Thompson set his eyes on Lampes and said in a joking tone, "Have you figured out how to spend this money?" β
The show was broadcast live in real time, with hundreds of thousands of viewers watching in front of the TV or in front of their mobile phones.
As a football powerhouse, the men here generally watch this kind of show as their own variety show.
"Hahahaha! Leicester City! Five thousand euros! A huge prize of 25 million! β
In the live broadcast room, the barrage with laughter was quickly posted, and most of them were accompanied by a few 'laughing and crying' expressions, which was self-evident.
"I think this gentleman should really think about it, how should such a huge bonus be spent?"
"Instead of worrying about how to spend it, I should worry about whether the money will be enough to cure his brain if it goes to the hospital."
"I really can't understand why he didn't give this money to Kardashian? I think Kardashian will come back and thank him for his support if she becomes president of the United States. β
"Hahahaha, this doesn't look like a particularly rich person, five thousand euros is really a lot of money, why did you throw it away like this."
"What's really the difference between throwing it out of the river, why don't you put it on the fire at home and light a cigarette? Do you have to waste it like this? β
ββ¦β¦β
Wave after wave of barrages were issued, and British netizens expressed their opinions one after another.
These barrages can also be seen by Georgie Thompson and Lampes, the protagonist of the incident.
Georgie Thompson continued to ask along the barrage: "Let's find out a little first, how is Mr. Lampes's work and family?" β
Lampes seemed to have guessed this question a long time ago, and shook his head slightly and said: "In fact, as the barrage said, my conditions are not good." β
"I'm a construction worker in Leicestershire, my wife works in a brewery and we have a ten-year-old son and a four-year-old daughter."
"On top of that, I still have some mortgage to repay, which was supposed to be set aside for the next few months of the year."
Speaking of which, in fact, Lampes also had some regret in his eyes, and he was a little helpless, "After betting on Leicester City with some irrationality, my wife has been arguing with me for the past few days. β
"I haven't been home for seven or eight days, and I really don't know what to do."
"The mortgage, children's tuition and living expenses are all points that I am more worried about at the moment, and I will return to work on the construction site immediately after participating in this show."
"I have to at least maintain the stability of this family, which is a big problem for me now."
Hearing this, Georgie Thompson shrugged, as if he was also a little helpless and regretful.
She said in a tone of incomprehension, "Can you tell me about the situation at that time?" Why did you make this choice or move? β
"Alas......" Lampes sighed and then said with a pained expression: "There are three good friends on the construction site, a Liverpool fan, and two Arsenal fans. β
'We talked about our teams after a drink and I also mentioned that the team I support is Leicester City.
'They were saying something nasty, saying that our club wouldn't win a Premier League or the FA Cup in another 100 years.
"I got into a bit of a confrontation with them, and in the end everyone was a little out of the mood."
"The three of them, in the end, took their own money and bet on each other's favorite clubs, saying that if their home team doesn't win the Premier League title, at least they can make a good extra money back and hedge their emotional risks."
"Then provoke me, dare you bet on your own Leicester City."
Lampes shook his head, his eyes full of remorse, "I didn't grasp my emotions, I made the first bet of five hundred euros, and then added four thousand five white euros at their instigation. β
In the end, he even felt a little emotional, "In some sense, I am not a competent husband, nor a qualified father, it is my impulsiveness that has affected my family, and I have to live a tight life in the past few months." β
"I also take the opportunity of this show to apologize to my wife, I will work the construction site, and strive to let us live the previous life as soon as possible, or even a better life."
After listening to what Lampes said, Georgie Thompson next to him nodded and said to the camera: "In fact, gambling, including football lottery, is a not very good habit. β
"It has the potential to break down a family's relationship, and I hope you don't learn from it."
"Especially some impulsive gambling decisions, at certain moments, can change your life all at once."
"Well, we thank Mr. Lampes for sharing."
"Before he came, he also asked me if he could use this show to get the bookmaker to return the money to him privately and invalidate the lottery ticket."
With regret on his face, Georgie Thompson pursed his lips and said: "This must not be reasonable, a deep-rooted bookmaker will not change its own rules and give birth to an exception." β
"I can only say, I hope Mr. Lampes will have a memory in the future, thank you."
After saying the last sentence, this short program is over.
Lampes went backstage to get paid for his participation in the show, which is actually why he was here.
He's really been too tight during this time......
As for Georgie Thompson, after leaving the camera on stage, he laughed and chatted with several of his girlfriends, and his words were all condemning Lampes or ridiculing Lampes.
The barrage in the live broadcast room has also been spewing out some words with sneers and sighs, and they have whipped Lampes.
However, it is not so much Lamès as Leicester City.
After winning two in a row, after gaining some small attention, they were greeted with more ridicule and laughter.
Everyone felt that they should not be in that position, and they all hoped that they would fall off soon, and then go to their friends with a very good mood.
Look, my prediction is not wrong, I said that they will definitely be relegated!
