Chapter 462 The bet between two top swimming stars

James couldn't help but feel happy when he saw the confused look on his guest's face.

Although both of them are on the Chinese swimming team, compared to James's average family background, York is a standard rich second generation.

The two met Marianne at the same time, fell in love with each other at first sight, and launched a crazy pursuit.

Unexpectedly, James, who was not as handsome as him, lived in relative poverty, and even almost ruined his career, would be the first to win Marian's favor.

York was very dissatisfied, so he began to stalk James, and whenever he got a chance, he would specifically attack James' weaknesses.

For example, he has no money.

York would always ask the other party to treat him, and every time he ate, he would choose the best restaurant and order the most expensive dishes.

So every meal costs at least one or two thousand dollars, and even more than seven or eight thousand dollars.

Of course, it doesn't matter if James can't take it out.

He mocked at the side, and then took out his black bank card to pay the bill, showing his true nature as a rich man.

So slowly, York's superpowers showed their power.

Marianne's attitude was obviously much better than at the beginning.

This encouraged York, who believed that it would only take a while.

He can win love with a sword and make Marianne give up James and fall in love with him completely.

For example, today, Marianne came all the way to see James. In order to thank him, James directly expressed his intention to treat him to dinner.

Naturally, he would not let go of this once-in-a-lifetime opportunity, so he ordered food like crazy and increased the meal cost to $20,000.

York has decided that if James objects, he may not be able to get the money in the end.

He humiliated the other party so hard that he would never have the face to appear in front of Marianne again.

In this way, his plan will succeed.

However, just when he thought he had a chance to win, James Jing changed his mind and didn't care about the high meal expenses.

and many more!

This guy must be faking it!

York smiled coldly, since you don't know what's going on, don't blame me for being rude.

He immediately invited everyone to eat:
"Here, try the king crab. It's a good thing. One bite will fill your mouth with meat. It's so delicious. The only drawback is that it's easy to bite off your tongue."

"The giant African scorpion is specially transported from the African desert.

Rich in insect protein, crispy and caramelized, it is said to be an aphrodisiac. "

"Tiger bone soup, this thing is even more rare. Although it is artificially raised, tigers are carnivores.

When a tiger grows up, the amount of meat it consumes is absolutely astronomical.

So the biggest advantage of this kind of soup is that it is expensive. "

"..."

While introducing it, he taught everyone how to taste it.

Zhang Yue was dumbfounded.

Although he is not short of money now, he usually eats plenty of fish and meat.

But many of the rare products in front of me have never been tasted.

This has to be said about the gap between the rich first generation and the rich second generation.

The rich generation usually just eats and drinks well, and hunting for oddities occasionally is the spice of life.

But the rich second generation is different. This group usually has nothing to do and likes to look for excitement everywhere.

For example, there is no one like York in front of him who takes scorpion as a supplement.

Zhang Yue even suspected that this guy had eaten Xiang with different flavors.

Ok……

Zhang Yue admitted that the fried scorpions still tasted good.

He is not averse to this delicacy.

Only Shi Manman refused, but seeing everyone eating, she couldn't help but take a bite.

As a result, the more I ate, the more I liked it and couldn't stop.

When York saw this, he happily asked the waiter to bring two more plates.

Not only fried African scorpions, but also other dishes as long as everyone likes them, he will order them again and again.

Finally, two hours later, it was determined that everyone was full.

York laughed: "Waiter, pay!"

The waiter walked up to him and said, "Sir, it's a total of twenty-six thousand dollars!"

As a result, York didn't even wait for him to finish speaking, and just said to James: "This is the gentleman who is treating me, you go to him."

The waiter looked at James with a smile.

James nodded, took out a bank card and handed it over: "Swipe your card!"

The waiter complied and finally returned the card and bill.

York was stunned to see all this.

He asked James: "This is more than 20,000 US dollars, where did you get the money?"

James glanced at him: "I earned it myself. What, is there a problem?"

“You earned it yourself, it’s impossible!

Don't say that the Paris Olympics haven't started yet, even if you start, you still get the gold medal.

It will take three months for the bonus to be received.

You won't spend all your savings, right? "

James shook his head helplessly: "York, there is an old saying in China that says when a person has been separated for three days, he should look at you with new eyes.

Yes, my financial situation was not very good before. Just because it was not good before does not mean it is not good now. "

After saying that, he kept saying: "I was just going to tell you about this.

This boss Zhang thought I had great potential and decided to let me be his image spokesperson.

We had agreed on a price and he was willing to hire me for a million dollars a year.

And Boss Zhang is very generous. As soon as I signed the contract, he paid all of the first-year endorsement fee of one million US dollars to my card. "

After James finished speaking, he shook the bank card in his hand and handed it to Marianne: "I will take out one hundred thousand dollars and use it for daily expenses, and I will give you the rest.

You save it for me, and when I return to the beautiful country, we will move to a bigger house. "

Marianne looked at the bank card in her hand and asked after a long time: "How much do you think there is here?"

James smiled and said: "Didn't I just say it? One million US dollars, I took out 100,000, and there was still 900,000 left.

No, we spent more than 20,000 yuan on this meal just now.

There should be more than 870,000 left now. "

Marianne's hand trembled.

James has already told Zhang Yue about inviting James to be his image spokesperson.

Including the fact that Zhang Yue had already sent the money.

But James didn't say the specific amount, and Marianne didn't ask.

In her opinion, although James is considered a world-famous player, he is at the top ten level at most.

Even if Zhang Yue asks him to represent him, the price will not be too high.

did not expect……

Suddenly her expression changed, and York looked full of anger: "What are you doing standing there in a daze? Get the money!"

York was puzzled: "What money do you get?"

"Nonsense, of course it's food money."

"Meal money? Didn't James say he was treating you?
It would be inappropriate for you to find me now. "

Although York didn't mind paying for the meal, the premise was that he had to use the money to slap James in the face.

This way his money is not wasted.

But now the situation is a little different. He would be a fool to take the money.

Marianne snorted: “Yes, James did say he was treating.

But it’s you who orders.

And you not only order the most expensive ones, but you also order them crazily and risk your life.

Look at the lobsters on the table. You ordered three in total, and we only ate one.

Do you need to give me the money for the remaining two?

There are also fried African scorpions. Although fried scorpions are very delicious, no matter how delicious they are, you wouldn’t order ten plates of them? We have eaten four plates, and you have to pay me for the remaining six plates. "

Marianne calculated while talking, and finally concluded that James only needed to pay nine thousand US dollars, and York needed to make up for the extra US$17,000.

There were black lines all over York's face, but Marian's words were reasonable and he could not refute them at all.

He had no choice but to transfer the money to the other party.

After receiving the money, Marianne smiled instantly.

York couldn't help but said: "I said Mary, you were not like this before.

No matter how much money James earned at that time, you wanted to spend it all on him.

When did you become a miser? "

Marianne rolled her eyes at him: "What do you know?
I did spend more in the past, but that was because I knew that even if I saved all the money James earned, I wouldn't be able to save much.

Coupled with the depreciation of prices, it is better to spend it all, so that at least you can enjoy it.

But it's different now. With this $890,000, I can form a new family with James and raise several children.

The two of us were sitting in the back garden. He was training in the swimming pool and I was watering the flowers.

That scene is so beautiful! "

York was shocked: "What? You want to marry James?"

Mary, this joke is not funny at all. "

Westerners have different concepts than those in the East. For them, having a girlfriend is one thing, but getting married is another.

The relationship between boyfriend and girlfriend is love, while marriage is family.

Now Mary wants to start a family with James, she must be crazy.

"Mary, you must think this carefully.

Yes, one million US dollars is indeed not a small number, but it also depends on where it is.

A big city like New York is simply not big enough for you to start a family. "

Marianne said: "Who said we want to live in New York?

There are many nice places near New York.

Besides, James signed a five-year contract with Boss Zhang, which means that he will receive at least one million US dollars every year.

It’s a total of five million US dollars. As long as I don’t spend it recklessly, I can do whatever I want. "

While the three of them were talking, Zhang Yue had been listening.

After Marianne finished speaking, he smiled and said: "Five million US dollars is indeed enough.

But if James can win the bronze medal in this Olympics, I can add another $1 million in endorsement fees every year.

If it's a silver medal, an additional $2 million will be added.

The gold medal is directly worth four million US dollars.

How about it? Do you have confidence? "

The last sentence is for James.

James was very excited: "Of course I have confidence, just look at it, I will definitely get the gold medal."

Zhang Yue laughed loudly: "Yes, I am ambitious.

Four million plus one million, you will be a sports superstar by then. "

After the two of them finished speaking, York snorted coldly: "Winning a gold medal in the Olympics, James, you really dare to think about it.

Not to mention the swimming masters from other countries, as long as I am here, you will not be able to take first place.

Because the first one could be mine. "

Zhang Yue looked at York in surprise: "Are you so confident?"

York nodded: "Of course, I am the holder of the fastest record in this year's season."

Zhang Yue gave the other party a thumbs up: "Awesome, how about we make a bet?"

"A bet? What to bet on?"

Zhang Yue pointed at James and said, "I'll bet on which one of you two can swim faster.

If you lose, be my spokesperson for free.

If you win, I'll give you double the endorsement fee. "

York was stunned: "Really? My endorsement fee is not cheap!"

"How about five million dollars a year? If you win, I will increase it to ten million dollars."

"That `s a deal."

York suddenly laughed and looked at James again: "Did you hear that?
As long as I beat you, I can get 10 million US dollars every year.

Do you really think that you are so great if you earn some endorsement fees?
When the game starts, I will let you see what absolute strength is. "

Leave without saying anything and without looking back.

James looked at Zhang Yue with a somewhat ashamed expression: "Boss, I'm sorry."

Zhang Yue was stunned: "Why do you say that?"

"Didn't you make a bet with the other party? If it weren't for me, you wouldn't have this bet."

The more he talked, the more guilty he felt.

Because the bet between Zhang Yue and York was completely thankless.

After all, York's own endorsement fee is not expensive, and for York, if he loses, he only needs to sign the contract, and there is no loss at all.

But winning is different.

Ten million US dollars a year, even the top superstars are not worth this price.

Take the former sprint king Usain Bolt, for example. His endorsement fee is only US$4 million per year.

Zhang Yue smiled and said: "Since you feel guilty, then work hard to win the other party.

After all, although I made a bet with him, I never thought of paying for it. "

James was stunned: "Did you think it was time to deny it?"

Zhang Yue's face was full of black lines: "What do you mean by denying it at the time? How could I be such a person?

If you want to prevent me from paying, can you just win him over?
Is it possible that you don’t even have this little confidence? "

James quickly said: "Of course, don't worry, he will definitely be my loser in this year's Olympics."

After sending James and his beautiful girlfriend away, Shi Manman couldn't help but said:

"Were you too impulsive just now?"

Zhang Yue was stunned: "What do you mean?"

“Of course it’s a bet, what else could it mean?
It’s not that I think you can’t win, but what if you win?
York's current results are indeed much better than James, but he is still far behind the swimming star.

Even if he becomes our spokesperson, it won't have much effect. "

Du Zhijian also said: "Manman is right, you are indeed wasting your efforts."

Zhang Yue smiled: "Who said that?

Yes, York's influence is indeed unsatisfactory.

But what if everyone in the world knew about the bet he made with James, and the bet I made in the middle.

Do you think it can cause a sensation? "

Du Zhijian was surprised and said: "You mean hype?"

Zhang Yue nodded: "Yes.

Originally, according to my idea, I tried my best to cultivate James.

When he achieved results in the Olympic Games, he made a big deal about the fact that he recovered from his injury because he ate our medicinal braised pork.

But although this will be effective, it is difficult to create a sensational effect.

It's different now.

Two beautiful national generals sneered at each other because of a woman, and made an open bet over a battle of loyalty.

And then there's this huge bet in the middle.

The effect is absolutely stunning.

In this way, even if James cannot win a medal in the Olympics, we can still achieve our goal.

Now do you still think that my bet with York and my willingness to spend 10 million US dollars as endorsement fee are useless? "

Du Zhijian quickly said: "How could it be?
Your solution is not only useful, but also a stroke of genius.

One word, absolutely! "
