Chapter 285 Hong Kong Jockey Club

The horse racing culture of Hong Kong City is an iconic cultural symbol of Hong Kong City.

The Hong Kong Jockey Club is the only legal gambling business organization in Hong Kong City. It owns hundreds of betting websites and operates gambling businesses including Mark Six Lottery, Football Lottery, etc.

Usually the "horse buying" that mainland residents refer to comes from the Hong Kong Jockey Club.

There was also a racecourse in Guangzhou at the time, but gambling of this nature was prohibited in the country and was later closed down. However, the mantra of "buying a horse" has always been there.

When the Hong Kong Jockey Club was first established, it was a public welfare institution, and its annual income was basically donated to society.

Although it is now a legal profit-making gambling organization, it still donates tens of billions of funds to the society every year.

The membership circle of the Hong Kong Jockey Club is the top-level Chinese wealthy network.

It is not only a symbol of status, but also a network of contacts for mutual sharing of top resources.

Holly's current wealth does not allow him to enter this circle. In addition to the wealth requirements, he also needs the recommendation of a selected member and the guarantee of another member.

To put it simply, members like Li Ka-shing recommend him to join the membership.

The Jockey Club also has a member club in Beijing. Why choose Beijing instead of Shanghai, Guangzhou and Shenzhen?

Because the status of the capital city is different, the status of the port city is also different.

It is not convenient to go into details here.

It's a bit similar to Liu Chuanzhi and Jack Ma... they held the Taishan Meeting.

But the force level will be higher than Taishan.

There is no doubt that if you are a businessman, your business will not be much worse if you enter the Jockey Club.

This time when he went to the Jockey Club, Holly didn't think about the club members and just brought his goddaughter Jiang He to play.

Take her on vacation.

Usually at the end of July and August, the Hong Kong Jockey Club will close its doors because the weather is too hot and affects the health of the horses.

Come here in early July and you can still play.

Two shows a week, Happy Valley on Wednesdays and Sha Tin on weekends.

Holly took Jiang He and the others over after breakfast.

There are many old men in the indoor hall, wearing reading glasses and holding newspapers in their hands, studying "horse buying".

It's a bit like what I saw in the Hong Kong movie.

The prize pool is still very high.

If you win 3T in three consecutive games and get the main prize, tens of millions of dollars will be put into your pocket, and you will be happy.

There are two ways to play horse racing.

One is to win alone, to value that horse and pressure it to win the championship.

One is the position, which is 3T, the top three of the three horses.

If all three horses finish in the top three, they will win the prize according to the odds.

The first two horses enter the top three, consolation prizes.

There is also a way to play with small gains, which is to press three Ts in three games in a row.

If you hit the top three in all three games, you will have free wealth.

Holly and Jiang He went to the Liangma District to observe the condition of the racing horses.

"Daddy, No. 1 looks very powerful, full of energy, and very strong." Jiang He observed, "No. 13 is not bad, and I feel that No. [-] is also powerful..."

He turned around and curled his lips, "It's over, I don't know who to press."

The greatest joy of buying a horse is here. What you are pursuing is not necessarily the bonus, but the hesitation during the choice and the final surprise.

As for winning multiple jackpots, it’s actually not that important.

Holly joked: "Buy them all?"

"Hahahaha." Jiang He said with a smile, "I'd better take a look at their training status."

You will definitely not make money if you buy it all, you will still lose money, but you will definitely win.

It’s all about the experience.

After the jockey takes the field, he does his pre-race warm-up.

Some of the horses were very energetic.

Jiang He said: "Dad, I'll just buy those horses. I'll win alone with No. [-], and the other three will be in the top three."

Holly smiled and said, "I'll press it in reverse."

"Why?"

"I used up all my strength in the warm-up. How can I run on the field?"

"Oh, that seems right." Jiang He reacted, "Then I'll follow you."

You can place bets with only ten Hong Kong dollars and experience the fun of horse buying.

Brother Huo, a powerful player, doesn't expect to make a fortune from this.

Mainly to make my goddaughter happy.The two went indoors to exchange cash coupons, and then went to the self-service machine to place bets.

After placing your bet, you can go outside to watch, or you can stay indoors and watch on the big screen.

It was still a little sunny outside at noon, but the excitement had to be outside. Holly followed Jiang He and went outside to watch the horse racing under a sun umbrella.

Each race lasts half an hour, and the racecourse is nearly a two-kilometer track. One lap only takes two minutes.

The excitement is certainly exciting.

"Young man, a mainland tourist?" The uncle sitting in the front row turned around and asked.

Holly smiled and nodded, looked at the lottery ticket in his uncle's hand, and asked curiously, "What numbers did your uncle buy?"

"Horse No. [-] wins alone!" said the uncle, "Horse No. [-] is very powerful."

Jiang He looked at Holly, the horse she had just begun to value.

Holly spread his hands and said with a smile: "I'll leave it to fate."

The race started and horse No. [-] took the lead.

Lead from the start to the finish line.

Jiang He turned sideways and looked at Holly with an unconvinced expression, "Godfather, No. [-] is the champion."

Holly smiled and said: "It seems that reverse thinking analysis cannot be used."

"You hate it." Jiang He stood up and said, "One of the top three won.

I'm not convinced, I still want to place a bet. "

Holly smiled.

Belongs to food and love to play.

"Go ahead, ask Sister Wen to accompany you this time, and bring me a cup of coffee by the way." Holly said.

"Okay." Jiang He ran in again to place his bet.

Holly congratulated the uncle in the front row: "Congratulations, uncle."

"Hahahaha, it's just so so, I earned 400 yuan for ten yuan, I'm satisfied." The uncle stood up and said, "Young man, have a good time, I'm leaving."

"Walk slowly." Holly waved and smiled.

After sitting for a while, the temperature outside was a bit high, so I got up and went inside.

Jiang He was still hesitating in front of the betting machine.

"Sir, your coffee." Zhong Yiwen handed the coffee to Holly.

Holly nodded, took a sip, "Sometimes if you are casual, you might get a surprise."

"Okay, I believe you again." Jiang He placed his bet blindfolded this time.

After placing your bets, go indoors to watch the game.

"Boss Huo!"

Suddenly a familiar voice came from behind.

Holly looked back and saw that it was Carina Lau, also holding a cup of coffee in her hand, and Tony Leung was also beside her.

Hong Kong City is big or small, and you can meet entertainers in the entertainment industry everywhere.

Especially in places like the Jockey Club, celebrities and entertainers often hang out.

"It's really you." Carina Lau was a little surprised, "I didn't expect to meet you in Hong Kong City."

Jiang He was stunned for a moment.

How many Hong Kong stars does your godfather know?
Yesterday Jackie Chan and Andy Lau, today Carina Lau and Tony Leung, are all seniors in the entertainment industry in Hong Kong.

Holly went up to her with a smile, hugged Carina Lau politely and said hello, "See you again, Sister Carina."

Holly extended his hand to Tony Leung: "I am your fan."

Carina Lau introduced Tony Leung: "This is Mr. Huo, the man I mentioned to you last time, who bought the king of watches at the Patek Philippe Time Art Exhibition in Beijing.

He is also a very capable film and television producer. "

"Hello, Mr. Huo." Tony Leung called with a smile.

"Hello!" Holly joked: "Sister Jialing is still worried about the incident with my cousin."

Carina Lau joked: "Mr. Huo has won people's love, why don't people complain?"

"Hahahaha." Holly smiled, "Come over to watch the horse racing today?"

"Well, I haven't been to the Jockey Club for a long time. I went out with my husband for a walk." Carina Lau asked with concern, "When did Mr. Huo arrive in Hong Kong City?"

"The afternoon before yesterday, when I landed, I was picked up by Jackie Chan for dinner." Holly said, "I didn't even have time to visit Sister Jialing."

"Let's have dinner tonight?" Carina Lau invited, looking at Tony Leung at the same time.

Tony Leung smiled and said: "I'm OK. Welcome Mr. Huo to Hong Kong City as a guest."
