Chapter 716: World Cup


"Mr. Sun, I didn't expect you to be so young!" Ken Louise was surprised to see Shen Long. Before that, he made many guesses, but these guesses were destroyed the first time he saw Shen Long.
"Mr. Louis, thank you very much for bringing my work to the United States." Especially it has brought me such a generous income. With this money, many things can be advanced.
"No, I should thank you for writing such a wonderful story. It is my honor to translate your work to American readers." Ken said sincerely, "According to the information I received, there have been many American science fiction authors. Planning to write a science fiction novel on the theme of steampunk, you have opened up a new world for science fiction literature. "
Although the influence of steampunk can't be compared with that of Cthulhu and Dragon and Dungeon, this is by no means a literary genre with only one work. There are still abundant resources for writers to tap.
"By the way, do you want to accept this manuscript fee in that way? Should I convert it to RMB or foreign exchange voucher for you, or will I buy some goods for you directly? According to the ratio, you can get a manuscript fee of nearly 10,000 US dollars. It ’s enough for you to buy a lot of goods.
Ken asked. He thought that the latter way might be more acceptable to Shen Long. Now almost all Chinese people are full of longing for foreign goods, especially electrical appliances.
"Actually, I don't want to get the manuscript fee so early, Mr. Louis, can you do me a favor?" Ten thousand dollars is an astronomical figure for ordinary people, but it is still not enough for Shen Long.
"Just call me Ken." Ken emphasized again, "Please say, I am willing to help you, as long as you can come up with the next work early."
"I want to use this manuscript fee to make a small investment, and now the World Cup football game is about to start in Spain, if you can help me with this manuscript fee to bet it would be great." Now it is six At the beginning of the month, and the World Cup will begin in mid-June, Shen Long will not miss such an easy money-making opportunity. There is no way to participate in gaming in China, but the United States can.
Ah, a large part of the American sports betting industry is in the hands of the Gambino family, which reminds Shen Long of his time in the world of "The Godfather".
"Football World Cup?" Ken's face is ashamed, you want to say rugby or baseball, he also knows something, like most Americans, he is not interested in football.
"Yes, I plan to bet Italy to win the championship, Rossi of Italy won the best scorer." The odds of these two bets are not low, the hotspot of this World Cup is Argentina with Maradona, and the economy Brazil of Ke, Socrates, Falcao, and Germany where Rumenig is located, France where Platini is located, although Italy is the seed team, it is not the most popular candidate.
As for Rossi ’s position in the top scorer ’s odds rankings, it is even more backward. You have to know that he has been suspended for two years before participating in the World Cup. The suspension was just lifted at the end of April this year. How about this situation? Will a bookmaker consider him a popular candidate for the Golden Boot Award?
Rummenig, Falcao, Boneck, Zico and other talents are the objects of concern. According to the information found by Shen Long, Rossi ’s odds are very high.
The odds of these two bets combined have reached dozens of times. As long as the bets are placed in time, as long as one month passes, this 10,000 US dollars can become hundreds of thousands.
"You can choose to bet with me, or I will give you a 10% reward." Shen Long gave Ken two choices. For Americans, nothing drives their efforts more than benefits.
"I do n’t know what a World Cup football game is or whether your two bets are reasonable, but since you made a request, I will find a way to help you "It's a hassle," Ken said with a shrug. "Actually, my translation fee was only due to your work, and I was a little ashamed. In this case, I will bet with you."
Shen Long has made many changes to his translation. Ken feels that this translation fee is a little worthy of shame, and he really does not understand football, otherwise he will not choose to bet with Shen Long.
"You made a wise choice." Shen Long laughed and said that the proceeds from the betting can be more than 10% of the reward, he can earn hundreds of thousands of dollars, Ken said that he can also get hundreds of thousands.
The two had a cup of coffee and talked for a while, Ken went back to work, and Shen Long went to Chen Kaige to live there. Now that the post-production of "The Yellow Land" is almost completed, it will be released soon, and Chen Kaige still wants to Taking this work abroad to participate in the awards, the two of them are talking about going abroad with great interest.
"Shao Ping, you will go out with us in time, maybe the script award will come back." Chen Kaige said.
"I'll forget it, this time the protagonist is the two of you ~ EbookFREE.me ~ Huangtu" won many awards for best director and best photography. I really haven't won the screenplay award. go with.
"Everyone tried to find a way out of the country. You're better. The opportunity is not at all inviting." Both of them were a little surprised. Seeing Shen Long's firm attitude, they didn't persevere. In two days, I will take you to see Director Wu Tianming and talk about the script of "Old Well". Oh, yes, Wu Dao seems to want Yimou to be the leading actor. "
Shen Long came to Beijing this time not only for the manuscript fee, but also planned to solve the problems of several movies by the way. Speaking of Lao Mouzi, it was a cross-border talent.
Originally from the photography department, he has won several best photography awards, and he has won the Golden Rooster Award, the Hundred Flowers Award, and the best actor in the Tokyo Film Festival. Many old dramas have no such achievements. Needless to say.
After two days, Ken found Shen Long again, "Mr. Sun, I asked friends in the country. Italy and Rossi have high odds, and many professional media do not like them. This is not a good thing. Maybe Can you think about it again? "
High odds means greater risk, and would like to persuade Shen Long to give up this bet, or to bet on other teams or players instead.
"No need, I have thought about it, I still stick to my decision." Shen Long said, "Just bet Italy and Rossi, if you want to change your mind, I can still give you a 10% commission."
"Okay, then I still want a 10% commission." Ken gave up the option of making a fortune, and the rewards he can get will shrink significantly.
