Chapter seven hundred and eighty seventh: show strength(1/2)
Although Huang Xin doesn't know exactly how much money her family has.
But I know the value of "Huamei Feng", "Zi Qiang Construction Company", "Feng Brand Store", "Things Can Become Hotels and Restaurants", etc.
Knowing that 20 million U.S. dollars is less than 100 million yuan, and my family can afford the loss, I’m not too nervous.
But she thought it was necessary to tell her parents about this. She was upright and believed that gambling was gambling, a bad habit and a bad habit, and she didn't want Huang Han to get involved in it.
"Dad, don't be anxious after hearing this, and tell mom not to be anxious," Huang Xin said.
"Ouch! Hurry up and tell me, this look will scare me to death." Huang Daozhou said anxiously.
"Huang Han is arranging for Shen Xiaorong to bet on the World Cup."
"That's it! It scared me to death."
Huang Daozhou was relieved.
As early as 1984, he had agreed with Huang Han to hand over 40,000 US dollars to Qin Shujie to take to the United States for betting.
You must know that the US$40,000 at that time was much higher than the US$20 million now for the Huang Han family.
At that time, he and Zhang Fangfen watched the live broadcast of the Olympic Games for the first time, and they really had a heartbeat following them.
Zhang Fangfen, who leaned over and listened carefully, was originally very nervous. The children are connected to their mother's heart, and the life is so beautiful now. The most important thing is to not hear anything bad about the children.
After hearing clearly what Huang Xin said about Huang Han's betting on the World Cup, she immediately felt relieved and sat back.
Then she said to Huang Daozhou: "The sun and the moon are flying by! Four years have passed in the blink of an eye, and there is another World Cup."
Um? That sounds wrong! Huang Xin asked strangely: "Huang Han, why aren't you nervous about betting on the World Cup?"
Huang Daozhou laughed twice and said: "There is a difference between sports betting and gambling."
"But he asked Shen Xiaorong to pledge 20 million US dollars!"
Huang Daozhou currently controls a "full force enterprise" whose total asset value this year will definitely exceed 900 million yuan. It is expected to achieve revenue of more than 2.5 billion yuan by the end of the year. Of course, he will not be surprised when he hears 20 million US dollars.
"Twenty million?" Zhang Fangfen grabbed the microphone and asked, "Huang Xin, do you know what the odds are?"
Zhang Fangfen is completely different. She knows what the outcome will be if she wins a $20 million bet and is eager to know the exact odds.
Huang Han never deliberately hid things from his mother. At most, he might have forgotten to mention some things.
Therefore, he bet on the 1984 Olympics, the 1986 World Cup, and the 1988 Olympics. Zhang Fangfen knew this.
She also knew that her son had won a lot of money at a glance, and the US dollars he won were one of the main sources of capital for overseas companies.
But Huang Daozhou only knew that Huang Han won the 1984 Olympics by gambling.
At this moment, Huang Xin was a little confused. What happened to her mother?
Huang Han asked Shen Xiaorong to gamble with 20 million US dollars, but she wasn't angry at all and asked about the odds?
She wondered: "Mom, how do you know this?"
"I understand. Can you tell me what the odds are?"
"I don't understand this!"
"Then did Huang Han say how much money he could win if he bet correctly?"
"It seems to be more than 200 million US dollars!"
"So many? Haha..., haha..."
Huang Daozhou said angrily: "What do you enjoy? If you win, it will be more than 200 million US dollars, but if you lose 20 million US dollars, it will be gone.
This kid is so shameless, how can he win the same prize? What a big bet! I will definitely call and scold him tomorrow!"
Uh! You can’t let your husband lose his temper with your son.
Zhang Fangfen said quickly: "You don't need to scold him, I will call him tomorrow."
"I don't know you yet? You can still scold him with his sweet words?"
"Don't worry about this, I'll do it!"
"Then you not only have to scold him, but also make him promise never to gamble again."
Huang Xin said: "That's right! You have to hurry up, Shen Xiaorong will go and place the bet tomorrow."
"You mean you haven't placed your bet yet?" Huang Daozhou asked.
"Yes! Huang Han just made an agreement with Shen Xiaorong half an hour ago."
"Then you hurry up and ask Huang Han to get up and answer the phone!"
Zhang Fangfen said quickly: "Huang Xin, don't shout, I will handle this matter. You can sleep peacefully, it's not a big deal, we hang up the phone."
Huang Daozhou was still waiting to talk to Huang Han on the phone. When he saw Zhang Fangfen hung up immediately, he became unhappy and said, "Why did you hang up the phone?"
"What? Are you scolding the child in the middle of the night?"
"It will be too late tomorrow."
"It's too late now."
"What's the meaning?"
"It's morning in the United States at this time. Shen Xiaorong must have already gone to place a bet. You call Huang Han now. Huang Han can't find anyone through the long distance call in the United States. Isn't this a waste of time?"
"What should we do?"
"Just accept the situation as it comes! It's not like our family can't afford to lose!"
"What are you thinking? Oh! I understand, you want to win. You don't have this kind of opportunism. We are all people who do things down-to-earth..."
"Don't! Don't! Don't preach to me. I know that gambling is a bad habit and you must not get into it. I will definitely scold Huang Han severely tomorrow. I want to go to bed now."
"Sleep? Where can I sleep now? You..." Seeing that Zhang Fangfen not only fell asleep but also pulled the quilt over her head, acting as if she didn't want to talk.
"Alas!..." Huang Daozhou sighed and fell silent.
The next morning, Zhang Fangfen had just gotten up, and Huang Daozhou, who had rarely suffered from insomnia, immediately brought up old things with dark circles under his eyes.
He asked Zhang Fangfen why she acted like a normal person even though she knew her son would win and lose so much in gambling.
Not only did I fall asleep instantly at night, but I also laughed out loud from my sweet dreams!
"Ah? I'm laughing in my dreams?"
"Ah what? I was tossing and turning and couldn't sleep. You were just snoring, and you were laughing so loudly!"
Zhang Fangfen couldn't explain the reason clearly. She was very smart and knew that if she stayed at home these days, the couple would inevitably talk about Huang Han's gambling when they met.
Simply call Huang Daozhou in front of her and ask Xiang Huihong to drive her to Shanghai.
Seeing Zhang Fangfen going to Shanghai in person, Huang Daozhou felt a little better.
How did he know that Zhang Fangfen came to Shanghai to stay for a few days to deal with other work and did not discipline Huang Han at all? Even Huang Han didn't know that Huang Xin had complained.
Zhang Fangfen had a good talk with Huang Xin on the day she came to Shanghai. She told Huang Xin exactly where the US dollars for the "Huameifeng" joint venture came from.
I didn’t expect my younger brother to have this ability! Huang Xin was petrified on the spot.
She finally asked weakly: "Mom, is Huang Han a god?"
Zhang Fangfen laughed and replied: "Maybe he is a semi-immortal!"
Then both mother and daughter fell down laughing.
They are both atheists, and they are always troubled by the inability to explain Huang Han's magic!
But Zhang Fangfen suddenly became interested in football matches and specifically looked for TV programs about football matches.
Of course when she came to Shanghai, she stayed in Huang Han, a small western-style building near Hongkou Park, where Huang Xin lived. Xiao Qiang, Lu Yao, etc. would chat with her in the evenings or watch TV together.
Originally, except for Cheng Wenge, no one else liked watching football matches.
It's been strange these past two days. As long as there are news and programs about football matches, everyone in the room loves to watch them. Even the replay of the 1990 World Cup qualifying game was watched with gusto.
On the contrary, Huang Han did whatever he was supposed to do and didn't watch TV at all!
Zhang Fangfen, who was full of doubts this day, finally couldn't help it, and stopped Huang Han, who was about to go back to his room to read books on microelectronics, and said:
"Huang Han, I have watched several qualifiers, why didn't I see that Cameroon team?"
“For a small African country, its population is less than a quarter of that of southern Jiangsu Province. How can it have any sense of existence?
It is impossible for Shanghai TV and CCTV to show the video of the African qualifiers for the 1990 World Cup. They should replay the video of the European and South American competitions.
Because Europe and South America have world-class teams such as Germany, France, Spain, Italy, Brazil, and Argentina.”
"So will our TV stations broadcast the World Cup live this year?"
"It should be possible. At least the opening ceremony and the opening game will be broadcast."
"Is the opening match between Cameroon and Argentina?"
"Yes! Mom, why are you suddenly interested in football? You also know about the World Cup, and you actually know that there is a Cameroon team?"
When Huang Han said this, he realized something and looked at Xiao Qiang.
Xiao Qiang was very smart and said immediately: "I didn't say anything!"
