Wu Dongheng, on the other hand, used national debt as a gamble. Since they all had the names of various forces, even if they won the national debt, they would still need to ask the Congress for money in public. So he used this reason to desperately lower the price.
This also caused the value of the treasury bonds in Wu Dongheng's hands to be discounted again and again, until finally it could only be calculated at 50% of its value.
Moreover, in almost every bet, he was betting against James and his team all by himself.
In other words, James took one dollar and went to a gambling table with a hundred dollars, betting on the several hundred dollars that Wu Dongheng had.
Ten times the efficiency can drive people to use any means necessary, a hundred times the profit can turn people into beasts, and this is a profit of several hundred times.
Whether it's James or the bald eagle government behind him, they'll keep going unless Ye Zi demonstrates overwhelming power.
Wu Dongheng knew this, but Ye Zi knew it too. For the sake of those lost cultural relics, Ye Zi would certainly not do that, even if it was the second time, even if he had just gotten married.
After Wu Dongheng left, James's indifferent demeanor vanished, replaced by a dark expression as he stared menacingly at Wu Dongheng's retreating figure.
Unemployment is of course his biggest worry right now, but he has no choice but to go down this path.
However, making a living after losing his job is definitely not a problem. Under his control, he has made a fortune in the competitions over the years.
He was clear about the difference between simply being a rich person and being a person with both money and power.
Steve sat down in the spot where Wu Dongheng had just been, holding binoculars. He glanced at James's expression and noticed that since Ye Zi joined the competition, James had lost his former high spirits, and his receding hairline was beginning to show.
As for Steve himself, due to the loss in the last competition, people who were dissatisfied with him began to frequently come forward and criticize him.
Not only did their reputation suffer, but they also gained far fewer benefits.
"Judging from the match just now, Ye Zi's progress is minimal, and our people are much stronger this time than last time."
"Tell me more details," James immediately asked, intrigued.
Steve recounted the events of the match, explaining the difference between one minute and five minutes. Although James wasn't skilled in combat, he wasn't completely clueless either.
Judging from the time frame, Yezi did take longer this time than last time.
There is a difference in numbers, but the two are more inclined to believe that it is the result of increased strength.
After the battle, Ye Zi was panting heavily.
This applies to any profession: if you stop moving forward, you are regressing, because others are making progress.
But whatever the reason, as long as it increases the success rate of eliminating Ye Zi, it's all worth it.
Their planned encirclement and annihilation was truly an encirclement and annihilation; they would not give Ye Zi any chance to surrender. Even if Wu Dongheng proposed surrender, Steve would not hesitate to kill him.
Ye Zi is different from others. Even if Tu Fu is defeated, Steve will make Wu Dongheng spend money to save his life for the sake of profit.
But not Ye Zi. Ye Zi's strength surpasses Steve's, and Steve will not let Ye Zi live, whether for the collective interest or for personal gain.
The same applies to James, because Ye Zi's sudden appearance puts him at risk of losing his job and power.
Therefore, besieging and eliminating Ye Zi is the most advantageous option for both of them.
This is like the bald eagle; in their minds, they are the most powerful nation.
In the dark world, the strongest must be Steve. Even if there is no Steve, it must be someone with American citizenship. As for race, whites are naturally the most important, followed by blacks. Native Americans can be barely accepted, but yellows are not allowed, and Chinese ancestry is even less acceptable.
After being happy for a while, James continued:
"Indeed, the best way to ruin a man is through a woman."
Especially a man like him who is rich and powerful.
Steve paused for a moment, then said:
"You mean Ye Zi has been indulging in womanizing over the past year?"
"Otherwise, how do you explain it? China doesn't have a super soldier program, and his strength is clearly not something he acquired through training."
No matter how scientific the method, it is impossible to obtain such great strength.
He had a genetic mutation, but after winning once, he thought he was invincible, so he let himself go and became obsessed with women.
Steve nodded. It was indeed possible. Even someone like him, who had been mutated by the Super Soldier Serum, had great control over his desire for women.
But as he thought of this, Steve suddenly recalled the scene from the last competition where Ye Zi held up five fingers and said that China has a 5,000-year history.
Which of the following is normal: Tu Fu's killing domain that can affect intelligence, or the Wu brothers' sword energy?
Even the weakest of the three strongmen, all the people Steve had ever seen with a strength of over a thousand, were all muscular giants. Their massive muscle groups not only affected their agility but also significantly reduced their speed.
But Yang Dali and his two companions were different; they were strong, agile, and fast.
Aside from differences in muscle structure and race, are there really no other differences?
Could there not be ancient cultivation methods passed down for five thousand years among them?
Thinking about this, Steve couldn't help but shudder. If that were really the case, it would be terrifying.
Then there's the nobody, who's right next to you but you just don't notice him. If it weren't for his good physique and the instinctive reactions honed by years of fighting experience, he would have been killed by the nobody in one fell swoop.
It was precisely because the invisible person caused Steve indelible harm and fright that Steve was able to remember this person.
If you ask LeBron James now, he won't even remember this nobody.
It was precisely because he couldn't remember the relatively unknown Wu Dongheng that James admired him so much, because in his opinion, Wu Dongheng always faced a group of them alone every time he came to participate in a game.
Although he was aware of some problems, there were still many things Steve didn't understand, and with the competition just around the corner, taking down Leaf was the most important thing right now.
Wu Dongheng carried his suitcase directly onto the plane. Since James had no intention of raising the stakes, it was not safe to leave the suitcase in the lounge area. Sending it onto the plane was the safest option.
Because there was not only a pilot on the plane, but also Tu Fu.
Once on the plane, Ye Zi was arranging the boxes containing the money.
"Not bad, you made a killing right away. How much?"
"Not much, 110 million US dollars," Ye Zi replied happily.
Not only was Wu Dongheng surprised, but the pilots who were helping were also dumbfounded.
One hundred and ten million US dollars, that's several hundred million Chinese yuan, and he just got it like that? That's money earned way too fast.
"You spent another five million fishing?"
"What are you saying? They're so stubborn, offering me money, there's no reason for me to refuse."
