Lin Lairong howled on the other end of the phone, his voice like a wolf howling.
"Wan, if you call me a pig again, I'll turn against you."
"Flipping your face? Are you flipping your face faster than turning the pages of a book? Calling you a pig is flattering you. Have you ever seen a pig as skinny as a shoe horn?"
Lin Lairong was speechless. Does he look like a shoe horn?
"Let me ask you a question. Is there anyone gambling on football in Xianggang?"
"Why are you asking this? Are you going to bet on football?"
"I'm free anyway, so I'm going to make some pocket money."
"It seems so. I heard from my second brother that everyone is betting on the World Cup. You're not really going to bet on football, are you?"
Lin Lairong's second brother is said to be a well-known playboy in Hunan and Hong Kong. He hangs out with various famous young stars all day long, so he knows that gambling on football is natural.
"Why not? It's a pity I remembered it too late. There are only two games left. Find out the odds for these last two games. I will tell you when I go to Shenzhen tomorrow."
"Are you coming to Shenzhen?"
"Maybe I'll go to Xianggang again. Be prepared to receive me then. Send the information I need to Shenzhen tomorrow."
"You men are all the same, addicted to gambling and lustful."
"You're talking too much nonsense. Don't say anything you shouldn't."
"Humph! I'm not your subordinate. I can say whatever I want."
"You can say whatever you want. If you don't take care of my affairs and delay my making a fortune, I won't be able to compensate you even if I sell you off."
"Pah! I don't believe it."
As long as there is football betting in Xianggang, it will be fine. I will go to Xianggang to make some money this time, and I can take this opportunity to get some things done.
After the call, Wan Feng began to plan his itinerary.
He has three things to do during this trip to Shenzhen.
First, hand over the prototype of the second-generation switch to Zhang Shiqian’s team that supplies Willa accessories.
This thing is going to be delivered to Yin Zhenfei.
The second is to gamble on football and make some money.
Since he has to save money now for high investments in the future, he has to make some quick money.
None of these projects, including lithography machines, chips, memory, and even automobiles, saves money.
He can still cope with it now while prices are low, but as prices get higher in a few years, the cost of his research will also increase.
What to play without money?
As for the third thing...
Then he called Ye Qianwen and asked him to make preparations for his trip to Xianggang in advance.
Finally, gather the troops.
Because he might have to go to Xianggang this time, Wan Feng summoned all his elite men.
Han Guangjia, Yang Jianguo, Han Meng, Zhao Gang, and Zhang Xian.
When you go to Shenzhen, you must bring Ye Qianwen with you.
In the evening, Wan Feng called Luan Feng and Zhang Xuan respectively, saying goodbye to them and saying that he would go to Shenzhen the next day.
Luan Feng’s requirement is that he is not allowed to have affairs outside.
Zhang Xuan's wish is for him to return safely.
On the morning of July 6, Wan Feng officially set off, took a bus to Bohai and then caught a flight to Guangzhou.
After arriving in Guangzhou, we hired a car and went to Shenzhen without stopping.
Lin Lairong was already waiting for him in Shenzhen and gave him the information Wan Feng wanted.
The 1990 World Cup opened on June 8th and ended on July 8th.
Today is July 6th, which means there are still two games left, the third place match and the championship match.
The third-place match is between Italy and Ingleside, and the championship match is between England and Argentina.
In his previous life, when CCTV broadcast these two games, Wan Feng only watched the championship match and didn't bother to watch the third place match.
Not watching it doesn’t mean he doesn’t know the result.
What Wan Feng cares about now is not the result of the game, but the betting odds.
The odds of Ingleside vs. Italy are only one to one, and the odds of Germany vs. Argentina are also one to one. What the hell is this?
There's not much point in this.
Wan Feng originally wanted to make a fortune, but when he saw the odds, there was no hope.
“Are there any other odds?”
"I don't know much about this. Why don't you go to Xianggang and find my second brother? He knows more about this."
According to the time in China, the game will be held at midnight tomorrow.
Wan Feng still has plenty of time.
“How many Hong Kong dollars do you have?”
You can't go to Xianggang to gamble on football with Chinese currency, and it will take a long time to exchange it.
"More than 50 million."
"Can you exchange another 50 million Hong Kong dollars for me tomorrow?"
Lin Lairong thought for a moment and replied, "No problem."
"Lend me your 50 million when the time comes."
Lin Lairong was surprised: "You bet so much?"
"There are only two games left. If you don't gamble now, you won't have another chance."
"Why do you sound like you're sure to win?"
"Haha! If you want to win some money, just play with me."
Lin Lairong thought for a moment and said, "Then I'll prepare a small investment of five million."
Wan Feng transferred a check for 35 million Chinese yuan to Lin Lairong.
In 1990, one hundred Hong Kong dollars was exchanged for sixty-two Chinese yuan, which could be exchanged for fifty-five or sixty-two million Hong Kong dollars.
Lin Lairong took the check and returned to Xianggang, saying that he would wait for Wan Feng there tomorrow.
After Lin Lairong left, Wan Feng called Yin Zhenfei.
He had not yet told Yin Zhenfei that he had come to Shenzhen.
When Yin Zhenfei learned that Wan Feng had arrived in Shenzhen, it took him twenty minutes to reach where Wan Feng was staying.
It was already dark, so the group found a hotel to have dinner.
During a break in the meal, Wan Feng began to explain the advantages of the second-generation switch: "It's small, powerful, and energy-efficient. It uses full digital transmission, can be expanded to support up to 18,000 lines, and can be upgraded to be compatible with other standards."
Yin Zhenfei was very excited. Any of the products Wan Feng mentioned would be able to beat other products on the market.
"The second-generation switch is now on a truck carrying spare parts from Zhang Shiqian. It's estimated to arrive in three or four days. After the truck unloads in Dongguan, the machine will be delivered."
As he spoke, Wan Feng beckoned to Zhang Xian, and Zhang Xian handed him a backpack.
Wan Feng took out an octavo-sized paper bag from his backpack and handed it to Yin Zhenfei.
"This is the machine production drawing."
Yin Zhenfei took the paper bag as if it were a treasure, opened it and took a quick look with a puzzled look on his face.
"Xiao Wan! That's not right! This is the blueprint for the first generation?"
"Huh? You got the wrong one?"
"This is indeed a blueprint for a generation of switches."
Wan Feng took out another paper bag from his backpack, and sure enough, the two bags were almost identical.
"Then take a look at this."
Yin Zhenfei took it and opened it, a happy smile appeared on his face.
“This is it.”
After saying that, he returned the first bag to Wan Feng.
"Xiao Wan! What are you doing with the first generation blueprints?"
"Sell it! How about it?"
Yin Zhenfei blinked blankly: "Sell? Sell to whom?"
"We have the second generation now, and it won't be long before the second generation is on the market. Do you think we can recoup some of the funds by selling this generation?"
Yin Zhenfei scratched his head, he still didn't understand.
"I'm going to sell this set of blueprints for four million, and we'll each take half."
Four million? Can it be sold?
