Chapter 949: Zhou always wins in gambling
At 7:30 p.m. Beijing time, which is 7:30 a.m. California time, SpaceX's fourth rocket launch was successful, opening a new chapter in private space flight.
North American investment institutions, which had originally looked down on the company, were in an uproar.
Zhou Anan, who received a call from Lian Xiongdong announcing the good news, knew more clearly that with the successful launch of SpaceX's rocket and its revival, Tesla, also under Musk's name, would also be rejuvenated.
His $60 million investment yesterday was a success.
"Was the SpaceX rocket launch successful?"
Listening to Brother Zhou's phone call next to him, Lian Yujin quickly opened the web page on his mobile phone and browsed it, then asked with surprise in his eyes.
Nowadays, the Internet is the fastest medium for news dissemination, and she has seen a prominent headline on a news website.
This newly acquainted Brother Zhou once again rubbed the Fengyun Club's reputation to the ground.
"Yes, but I should be the one who is happy. After all, I won 90 million. Why are you happy, little sister?"
Looking at the happy expression of the beautiful girl in front of him, Zhou Anan couldn't help but tease her.
The two dimples on the other person's face when he smiles really look a bit like his girlfriend, but his girlfriend's figure is a little better than the undeveloped other person. Of course, his girlfriend is slightly inferior in terms of long legs.
"Brother Zhou defeated the guy from Fengyun Club, so I am naturally happy to see it."
Regarding this, Lian Yujin's face turned slightly red. Under the cover of night, she was not afraid of being discovered by the other party, but she walked forward quickly for a while.
She also didn't know why she was happy for Brother Zhou, whom she had just met.
Maybe, she just really couldn't stand some people in the Fengyun Club.
"Oh."
Looking at the back of the little sister of the Lian family, Zhou Anan smiled and shook her head, then followed her.
"How did it succeed?"
"I just can't understand why he always guesses right."
"This is fucking evil."
"It's over. I have to return the Ferrari I ordered for next month."
"Well, my pocket money for the next quarter is gone, and I have to live on my salary."
"You are only in the next quarter. My old man knows about my bet and said that if I lose, I will be banned from living expenses for three years. For the next three years, I really have to run my own cosmetics branch well."
"My old man is the same. Next month, I will also have to go to work in the branch in Beijing."
Unlike someone's joy, in a luxurious box of a bar, the happy atmosphere ten minutes ago became a little heavy, especially the six people who lost the bet were sighing.
Who could have thought that SpaceX's rocket would actually be launched successfully, and that a private enterprise would actually send a rocket into space? This is simply the biggest joke of this century.
Those who lost 15 million were all feeling heavy-hearted.
Of course, no one suggested breaking the appointment.
All the elites in Hong Kong knew about this bet. If one's character was ruined because of such a bet, everyone in Hong Kong would laugh at him.
It was precisely because everyone in Hong Kong knew about the bet that several old men said that if they lost, they would be cut off from their mortgage and exiled.
"Okay, okay, it's not like the sky is falling. We can get back at you next time."
Yuan Sishen, who lost several million last time, looked at everyone's heavy mood and smiled to liven up the atmosphere.
Fortunately, he was not at the scene last night, otherwise he would have been like the other brothers, not only losing 15 million, but also being laughed at by the people in the elite club again.
Although he said that he would get back at the enemy next time, he had decided in his heart that next time he saw the young wealthy man from the mainland, he would stay away from him and avoid him.
Including the time with the Yun family, their Fengyun Club has lost face at the hands of the other party three times. Every time they made the bet with full confidence, they ended up being slapped in the face by the other party.
It's so frustrating.
"Come on, let's drink this glass of wine, and then we'll go back to our homes and see you next year."
Lan Jinghai, who was the most depressed, picked up a cocktail, stood up and spoke to everyone present.
Having been assigned to a branch company in the mainland, he has no chance of returning to Hong Kong this year. This is also a gentleman's agreement between him and his father.
It is not shameful for a man to lose. He should dare to do it and admit it. There will always be a turning point next time.
"Okay, see you next year."
The other brothers all stood up and worked on it generously.
“Sizzle.”
“Sizzle.”
“Sizzle.”
The sound of text messages on the mobile phone continued to ring. Zhou Anan picked up the phone and took a look. She found that they were bank messages containing 15 million yuan in deposits.
A Swiss bank card that originally had no funds suddenly had 90 million in cash. It seemed like making money was a bit easy.
Unfortunately, the young elites in Hong Kong are not fools and it is impossible for them to be continuously exploited by him. I guess there won’t be a next time for such a good thing.
"Ange, it's your turn, sing quickly."
Just as Zhou Anan was lost in thought, a female voice urged her beside her. She quickly picked up the microphone and started singing a somewhat difficult Cantonese song, which was 90% out of tune.
Before coming out of the Lian family villa, Zhou Anan received a call from Tianxian sister, saying that she was celebrating his winning the bet. As a result, the two of them sang in the KTV of the hotel.
"Hahaha"
Liu Feifei, who was standing by, listened to the ambiguous Cantonese and couldn't help but laughed while lying on the table, holding her stomach.
She didn't expect that the usually steady President Zhou could speak such funny Cantonese, it was simply unimaginable.
However, this also makes the other person seem more approachable, and the distance between them and her is not that great.
"You smile so happily, and you sing only a little better than me."
Looking at the fairy girl in a light pink dress, whose top was exposed as she leaned over and laughed, Zhou Anan glanced at her and retorted very naturally.
Unexpectedly, this beautiful girl prefers pink.
"My Cantonese is not that good, but if you take a score of 100, you will get at most 15 points, but I at least passed."
On this issue that made her feel rather superior, Liu Feifei bluntly admitted her disadvantage.
No matter how bad it is, it is still much better than the other party, isn't it?
"Do you dare to compete?"
Seeing the fairy sister holding her head high and chest out, Zhou Anan raised the corners of her mouth and asked with a smile.
"Let's compete. If you lose, you have to agree to one condition of mine."
Faced with the other party's overconfident challenge, Liu Feifei accepted it with a smile on her face and had already thought about her bet.
"If you lose"
"Whatever you say, I agree."
"OK."
"I laugh at you and I wasting all my time scheming, chasing after the beauty of the mirror flower.
Afraid that good fortune will pass away in the blink of an eye, obsessed with greed, anger, joy, hate, and anger.
Blame you and me for being too greedy for fame and power, blame the creatures on earth for being too beautiful.
I regret that I was too stubborn in keeping promises and making oaths in the past, and was obsessed with sorrow and joy, grief, resentment and jealousy.
Ah, I can't bear to leave the dazzling world. Ah, I can't avoid the comfort of infatuation.
Ah, there is no hue to replace it. Ah, I will never be able to figure out this difficult problem in my lifetime."
Listening to the skillful singing style and the tuneless voice, Liu Feifei, who was originally full of confidence, was suddenly dumbfounded.
This accent was totally different from the other person's previous awkward Cantonese accent.
Could it be that the other party was pretending before?
Oh no, she fell into the trap.
In an instant, Liu Feifei seemed to have guessed someone's evil intentions. Looking at the other person's seemingly honest face, she became furious.
"How about it?"
After the song was over, Zhou Anan looked at the dumbfounded Tianxian sister with a smile.
"Were you pretending just now?"
Without asking loudly, Liu Feifei widened her eyes and asked the other party.
"No, I only know one or two."
"One or two?"
"Why, you're not going to cheat, are you?"
"Of course not. I keep my word."
"Then I have to make some conditions."
At the end of July, a shopping website called Mingpinhui suddenly appeared in the eyes of many online peers.
“50% off on genuine products.”
"30% off for genuine products."
"20% off for genuine products."
"If it's not genuine, I'll refund you three times the price."
"After receiving the goods, you can return it within seven days."
…
With overwhelming advertisements on Mingliu Weike, TX channel and the homepages of major portals, huge amounts of traffic instantly poured into this newly established online shopping platform.
"Hahaha, Mr. Zhou, I'm here to report some good news to you."
"What good news?"
Zhou Anan, who had just finished breakfast and was playing hide-and-seek with her sister Tianxian, received a call from Liu Xijian and had to stop the game.
"Within half an hour of the launch of the website, all stocks of 35 brands were sold out, with sales exceeding 30 million. The number of real-name registered users on the website has exceeded 1 million."
When talking about this achievement, Liu Xijian's voice was full of excitement.
Even the JD Mall, which has been developing for many years, cannot match such sales performance.
Of course, this is except for the day when a foreign brand of milk powder was launched some time ago.
