Movie Master

As a world-famous gambling city, Las Vegas can be said to have everything that one expects to find. In addition to the various games in the casino, they also have gambling tables opened by major giants, which are colorful and dazzling. From the eye-catching boxing champion of the century, tens of billions of funds can be gathered in one gamble; to the selection of male guests or the final pairing of dating entertainment shows, there are countless participants; to the Super Bowl, World Cup, Olympic Games, etc. There are tens of thousands of sports events to be enjoyed together, which is simply an eye-opener.

Different from casinos, these gamblers have requirements for minimum funds, time of betting, amount of betting, etc. according to different markets. In order to ensure that there is no trickery and cheating, the dealer will even review the bets that exceed a certain amount-after all, the dealer opens to win money, not to lose money. Therefore, participating in such a gamble is often a real senior gambler, which is even more exciting than stocks.

Ian obviously didn't expect Lance to have such an idea, which made him narrow his eyes slightly, as if he noticed that Lance was a little strange.

In fact, there is always a kind of arrogance and strength of a gambler in Lance's bones. For example, Harry Potter and Pirates of the Caribbean during the diorama film industry, he is often bold enough to do things that others dare not challenge Decide, go for it with a go-big-or-go-home mentality. The same is obviously true of Sin City this time. If a safe plan is followed, it should wait for Murder with a Borrowed Knife to be completed—even after it is released, before making further plans, but Lance decided to put all his eggs in one basket.

However, Ian understands Lance, and Lance's gambler mentality is limited. Everything comes from his own judgment and trust in his own strength. To put it simply, Lance will choose to challenge Sin City at this time because he believes that the bet is worth a fight, and also because he believes that his own strength can minimize the risk. This is the real thing, and the initiative is always in Lance's hands.

But things like stocks, investment, and gambling are all illusory things, and Lance blames it all on luck, and he doesn't want to get involved too much. Of course, Ian can't refute it. Even the top stock trader can't say that he is victorious in all battles. Luck is also a part of strength.

So, when Lance suddenly brought up the gambling in Las Vegas, Ian almost didn't recognize the man in front of him, Are you sure you know what you're talking about? Or is it sleepy talking?

Ian's teasing made Lance chuckle, I know what I'm talking about, but I don't know if I'm sure. I just think that if you want to gather a lot of capital in a short period of time, maybe this is the best way. Quick shortcut.

Yes, but it's also the quickest way to commit suicide. Ian nodded and shook his head speechlessly. Ian works in a venture capital company, and usually works more on risk assessment and capital operations. Even he himself is completely ignorant of the changes in the gambling market. So, do you have inside information? If you are inside the stock market It is indeed not difficult to earn 40 million U.S. dollars in a short period of time by obtaining accurate inside information, but...the reason why these information are called inside information is because it is not so easy to get, and there are many of them It's fake news. Not to mention the gambling table in Las Vegas.

Lance thought about it seriously, No, I won't say that. After all, it's the European Cup, and every team is eager to win the championship. But, I have a good hunch, I think we can give it a try. Intuition plus strength analysis, this is Lance's only tenable reason, and now it depends on whether Ian is willing to believe it.

Ian raised his right hand to support his chin, stared at Lance intently, and sat quietly on the spot, lost in thought. Maybe it's just three seconds, maybe three centuries, Ian just quietly looked at Lance in front of him, but Lance didn't speak, just walked towards Ian calmly, without explaining, but also There is no panic, the long river of time is like a quiet stream flowing slowly, almost giving people the illusion that time has been frozen...

Suddenly, Ian smiled, So, which team do you like? While speaking, Ian turned around neatly, opened his laptop, and began to search for relevant information.

Lance's tense heartstrings loosened slightly, and the arc of his mouth relaxed a lot. Although he believed that Ian would believe him, after all, this was the first time he really used his prophet to plan, and he There is no reasonable reason to convince Ian... Isn't this a gamble? Fortunately, he won the bet. Maybe, we can divide the funds into two parts, one part is put into the gamble, and the other part is run according to your ideas.

Ian curled his lips, Two million in cash? I don't think it's necessary. After sharing it, there are very limited things you can do. Ian stepped aside, and then Lance saw the money on the screen. The interface is impressively Las Vegas about the 2004 European Cup. Anyway, the European Cup only lasts for three weeks. We can look at the final results and then make a calculation.

Ian glanced back at Lance, showing a teasing smile, Don't put too much pressure on it. Think about it, our odds of investing in 'City of God' are obviously much higher. Back then, City of God With an investment of three million dollars, almost no one believed that this work would be successful, let alone profitable. But at the beginning they did not hesitate to give Lance support.

Lance laughed dumbfounded, and shook his head slightly, But if this is successful, the benefits will be much more.

But the success rate is also much lower. Ian raised his eyebrows and said mercilessly, causing Lance to roll his eyes, and then Ian turned his chair and looked at the interface, I have more details. Need to study it again, there are still nuances in each handicap. However, which team are you going to bet on?

Ian doesn't know much about football, but because of Gao Wen's existence, they will pay more or less attention to sports events. Although the top football event in the world is the World Cup, objectively speaking, the European Cup is even more exciting than the World Cup, because the sixteen participating teams in the European Cup do not have absolute underdogs, and the closeness of strength will make the game exciting diverse.

France? Or are you optimistic about Germany and Spain? Ian glanced briefly, and Lance's eyes followed.

The 2002 World Cup has just ended, Brazil successfully won the championship, Germany ranked runner-up. But when it comes to the European Cup, Germany is not the most promising. Since it was too late for Lance to remember this, and now that the lottery has been drawn for the groups, the odds are bound to be adjusted accordingly based on the difference between the death group and the simple group. Germany, the Netherlands, the Czech Republic, and Latvia were grouped together. This is a complete death group, so the odds have changed. The bookmakers are obviously more optimistic about the Dutch breakthrough than Germany.

Now look at the odds, France and Italy are the biggest favorites, the former is 1:4.33, the latter is 1:5, topping the list. The host Portugal is close behind, and the odds of the Netherlands, Spain and England are all good, and their strength is optimistic.

Lance skipped over these teams, went all the way down, and soon found his target, Greece. The odds are impressively 1:67, in other words, as long as Greece wins the championship, betting one dollar can win sixty-seven dollars. In the entire odds list, just ahead of Latvia, Switzerland, Russia and Croatia, it is completely unfavorable.

In the history of the European Cup, there were many upsets, and the intensity far exceeded that of the World Cup. In modern history, in the 1992 European Cup, the Danish team that could not qualify for the finals was invited to replace Yugoslavia at the last minute. The incredible Danish fairy tale, successfully won the championship, shocked the world.

In the European Cup in 2004, fairy tales came again, but this time it was Greek mythology. The Greek team, which has never been in the final stage of an international competition in history, suffered two consecutive defeats in the qualifiers. Almost everyone thought that this team missed the finals of the international competition again, but then they made it Six consecutive victories and successfully entered the finals. Despite this, Greece, which is on the world stage for the first time, is still not favored and is generally considered to be an underdog.

After the European Cup group draw, Greece was almost forgotten because they were drawn into a group with Portugal, Spain and Russia. In this group, the qualifying of Portugal and Spain is favored by everyone, while Russia and Greece, which are equally strong, are considered not capable of disrupting the situation, and are more training targets for Portugal and Spain.

However, after the start of the final round, the situation changed suddenly. In the group stage, Greece upset Portugal, drew with Spain, and lost to Russia. The record of one win, one draw and one loss is the same as that of Spain, but relying on the advantage of scoring more goals, it replaced Spain and entered the knockout stage. With excellent defense, Greece successfully reached the final with two 1-0 games, and played against Portugal again. Relying on the only goal in the game, Greece defeated Portugal for the second time and stood on the top of Europe.

This eulogizing of Greek mythology handed down from generation to generation shocked the world!

Few people expected such an ending, as can be seen from the 1:67 odds, but Lance anticipated it, and his rebirth memory remembers it very clearly, because it makes Portugal It became the only team in the history of the European Cup that the host team entered the final but lost. The 19-year-old Cristiano-Ronaldo (Cristiano-Ronaldo) also turned out in this game.

Lance pointed down, Greece.

Ian looked down, his expression suddenly became very playful, and he turned his head to look at Lance in a daze. Although Ian doesn't know much about football, he also knows that Greek football is not considered a giant in Europe. It has no history and highlights, and there are not even many rumors...

Lance originally planned to explain. For example, Greece has won six consecutive victories in the qualifiers without conceding a single goal, which is evident in the defensive team building... But after thinking about it, he simply didn't say anything, just frankly looked at Ian.

Ian closed his jaw slightly, So, Greece? Lance nodded in affirmation, 'City of God', and then Greece? Ian thought about the subtle connection in his mind, and then picked a choice. Eyebrow, Well, it's Greece.
