Chapter 47 Random Interview
Zhang Guan spent almost all the money in the bank card, in exchange for a thick wad of nearly [-] lottery tickets.

"The match between Iraq and Portugal was held the day before the opening ceremony, and the prizes should be redeemed soon, and then there will be money again." Zhang Guan comforted himself, and at the same time, he will bet on Iraq to enter the semi-finals and bet on Iraq 4: 2 The lottery ticket for the victory over Portugal was put in the bag.

At this moment, Zhang Guan was stopped by a person.

"Mr. Hello, I guess you must not be Japanese. Are you Chinese?"

"Yes. I am Chinese." Looking at the other party, when he saw the words "BBC" on the microphone and the camera reporter behind him, he asked, "Are you a reporter from the BBC?"

"Sir, you are so wise. I am a BBC reporter, and my name is Bell." Reporter Bell said.

Zhang Guan frowned, he even suspected that the reporter came to grab the bag on purpose, but then he thought about it carefully, he is a Chinese, and he is not well-known in Europe, who would know him on the street?How could a reporter come and stare at him deliberately.It's like throwing Jamaican flyer Powell to Wangfujing Street now, no one will care about it, they will just treat him as an ordinary tourist. No matter what, Powell is more famous than himself.If the reporter has the time to stare at him, he might as well go to the gate of the big-name athlete.

Moreover, the Olympic Organizing Committee has no clear regulations on the purchase of lottery tickets by athletes, and it is not mentioned in the athletes' code of conduct. Of course, if there is suspicion of match-fixing, it will definitely be investigated.Therefore, it is not considered a violation of the regulations to apply Zhang Guan. He bets through legal means, even if he is caught by a reporter, it cannot be regarded as a mistake.The only trouble was with the national team, because in principle, it is not allowed to leave the Olympic Village without authorization, but Zhang Guan came out in the name of a rehearsal, got approval, and then bought something, which can be regarded as a small edge ball. Even if this kind of thing is known by the higher authorities, they will generally turn a blind eye and close one eye.

"Maybe it happened to be a random interview!" Thinking of this, Zhang Guan breathed a sigh of relief.

The opposite reporter, Bell, changed his voice, and then said, "Is this your first time in Athens?"

"Yes, it's the first time, and it's also the first time to come to Europe." Zhang Guan answered.

"Oh, then you must have come for the Athens Olympics, how do you feel about Athens?" Bell asked.

"Very good, the weather is nice and the scenery is beautiful." Zhang Guan had the impression that foreigners like to talk about the weather.

"As far as I know, not many Chinese people participate in spinach, and my Chinese friends in London don't have the habit of buying spinach. You are a Chinese who buys spinach. Can you share with me what you like? Is it a project? Is it table tennis? The Chinese are the best in the world in table tennis.” Bell pointed to the lottery ticket in Zhang Guan’s hand

Zhang Guan shook his head: "The track and field I bought is the men's [-]-meter sprint."

"Oh! Flying Man War! This is a very exciting project." Bell laughed happily, and he found that it was a very wise thing to choose Zhang Guan as the interviewee.

If the other party buys table tennis, then this interview will be over. It is only natural for the Chinese to win the Olympic table tennis championship. Thinking that China's table tennis will win the Olympic championship, and a Chinese buys spinach for table tennis, this is absolutely nothing news.

"So can you tell me which athlete you like? Defending champion Maurice Green?"

While talking, Bell looked down at the lottery ticket in Zhang Guan's hand. Zhang Guan didn't cover it up, and showed it openly.

"Guan-Zhang? Who is this? I'm very sorry, this is not the sprinter I am familiar with. But this name is very similar to your Orientals." Bell replied.

"Yes, he is Chinese." Zhang Guan replied.

"It turns out that this is the case. You are supporting your compatriots. I also wish him good results." Bell said while looking at the lottery ticket in Zhang Guan's hand, and then said: "But the 500 euro bet This Guan-Zhang player won the championship, isn't it a bit too much?"

"But the odds are also very high." Zhang Guan replied.

At this time, the reporter Bell also saw that the odds listed above were indeed very high, and immediately echoed: "It is true, very attractive odds. But it also needs Guan-Zhang to win the championship. So what do you think about the other players? Which projects or players are you interested in?"

Zhang Guan shook his head: "No more."

Bell looked at the stack of lottery tickets in Zhang Guan's hand, which must have exceeded a hundred tickets. He must have bet on a lot of sports and athletes. Bell thought that Zhang Guan didn't want to disclose the contents of other lottery bets, so he said, "Mr. Don’t worry, although I don’t know how the gambling industry in Asia is, this kind of regular gambling is legal in Europe. I saw that you bought a lot of lottery tickets, but I can assure you that the law will definitely protect you legitimate interest."

"You misunderstood. These lottery tickets were bought for the [-]-meter sprint event, and the same person who bought them won the championship." Zhang Guan slowly spread out the lottery tickets and showed them in front of the reporter.

Bell opened his mouth in surprise. He did see that every chapter of the lottery was betting on the same player. The player named Guan-Zhang won the championship, and each lottery ticket was worth [-] euros.The reporter roughly calculated that Zhang Guan had more than [-] lottery tickets. If each lottery ticket was worth [-] euros, the total amount would exceed [-] euros.

Bell didn't know, and he estimated that it was less. Zhang Guan spent nearly [-] euros to buy himself the Olympic [-]-meter champion.

"Crazy! Someone paid [-] euros to buy a completely unknown athlete to win the [-]-meter sprint championship, and the reason is only because this athlete is his compatriot!" Bell was surprised and excited at the same time. He unexpectedly encountered such a crazy thing, and he was excited because he encountered a bizarre news.

"Did you bet heavily on this Guan-Zhang player because he is your compatriot?" Bell continued to ask.

"I think he has the strength to win the championship, maybe he can break the world record in the [-] meters." Zhang Guan said.

"Oh, it seems that you have great confidence in your compatriots, and I am looking forward to this day." Although Bell said so, his tone was full of sarcasm.Then he went on to say: "Thank you for accepting our interview and wish you a happy stay in Europe."

Looking at the back of Zhang Guan leaving, Bell said to the photographer: "[-] euros is just for naught. This person must be the rich second generation of China, so he spends so much money. The Chinese won the Olympic hundred. Meter sprint champion? To break the world record? What an ignorant person."

……

Zhang Guan was delayed in the betting shop for a long time, but the Olympic rehearsal took longer. When Zhang Guan returned to the Olympic Stadium, the rehearsal had just come to an end.

Zhang Guan waited at the agreed place, and then boarded the return bus with the team. Since there were no other track and field athletes and Zhang Guan was tall, he was arranged to ride in the same bus with the basketball team.Basketball team cars have three seats in a row and are more spacious, even tall basketball players can ride comfortably, while ordinary cars have four seats in a row.

Ah Yi happened to be sitting next to Zhang Guan. He turned around and asked, "I didn't see you during the rehearsal just now. Where did you go? Did you sneak out to play?"

"I'm not acclimatized, my stomach hurts, and I went to the bathroom." Zhang Guan replied.

"I don't believe it, it takes four hours to go to the toilet?" A Yi stared at Zhang Guan, and joked: "Be honest, you are clear about our policy. Frankness is lenient, and resistance is strict."

"Okay, okay." Zhang Guan deliberately showed a very helpless look, took out a lottery ticket for Iraq's 4:2 victory over Portugal from his bag, and said, "After going to the toilet, I took the time to buy a lottery ticket. Later, I saw that you had already started the rehearsal, so I didn’t go in.”

"Foreign lottery tickets are similar to domestic ones." Ah Yi picked up the lottery ticket and looked at it. At this time, Ah Yi had just been selected for the national team and had little experience in going abroad.And other basketball players are also playing CBA in China. They usually have less opportunities to go abroad. Even if they go abroad, they will not buy lottery tickets. Therefore, the lottery ticket in Zhang Guan's hand is a rare item in everyone's eyes.

"Foreign lottery tickets, let me have a look!"

"4:2, this is the football lottery! I heard that the European football lottery is the most popular."

"You bought 3000 euros all at once, which costs more than 3 national currency. How much can you earn if you win?"

At this time, the University of Ba also looked over. After all, the University of Ba had been in the NBA, and his English level must be much higher than that of other athletes. Others may only understand the numbers on the lottery, but the University of Ba can understand everything.

"Let me tell you Zhang, did you buy the wrong one? Iraq played against Portugal, and you bought Iraq's 4:2 victory over Portugal, did you buy it the wrong way!" Bada said with a simple and honest face.

"No way! 3000 euros, if the price is reversed, it will be a big loss!" Ah Yi exclaimed.

Although all the players in the car were basketball players, as someone in the sports circle, who didn't know that Portugal's football is several grades higher than that of Iraq.

At this time, the lottery ticket passed to the little giant. The little giant, who has been in the NBA for two seasons, is already very proficient in English. He glanced at it and said, "This is really Iraq's 4:2 victory over Portugal. 1 match 100 odds, if you win, it will be 30 euros."

The little giant also felt that Zhang Guan had bought the wrong UK. He felt that Zhang Guan must be extremely embarrassed at this time, so he deliberately talked about the odds, hoping to help Zhang Guan resolve the embarrassment.

"Don't worry, I made the right purchase. I think Iraq has a chance to win against Portugal." Zhang Guan went on to say, "Iraq's opportunity to participate is hard-won, and their players must cherish it very much, so they must fight very hard in every game; in addition, now Everyone does not know this Iraqi team, so it is impossible to arrange targeted tactics. On the contrary, the tactics of the Portuguese team have long been exposed; another point is that there is no pressure on Iraq. Now the country in Iraq is in ruins, and I am afraid that not many people will go there. Focus on the Olympics, and Portugal is determined to win the championship, the pressure on the players is huge; and the last point, I think the Portuguese team will definitely underestimate the enemy when they meet Iraq."

"Well, it makes sense." Ba Da nodded first in agreement. He still felt that Zhang Guan had made a mistake in buying it, and he only found a higher level for the sake of face.

"Then what are the odds for our Chinese team to win the championship?" A Yi asked.

"1 pays 80." Zhang Guan looked at the disappointed Ah Yi, and continued: "But Argentina's odds of winning the championship are quite good. If you are interested, you can buy Argentina to win the championship."

"Argentina? Ginobili is also here this year." The little giant said and looked at Bada.

Bada got a championship ring with the Spurs, and he and Ginobili were teammates at the time.The Rockets and the Spurs are in the same division, and the Little Giant and Ginobili are old rivals.

"Yeah, Ginobili is too slippery, like a loach." Bada said, "But don't forget there is the US team."

"Dream Six? I'm not optimistic about Dream Six." Zhang Guan said.
