Chapter 60 Before the Game

At 17:30 pm on July 8th, local time in Brazil, the sky was still bright, but the spotlights of the Mineirão Stadium in Belo Horizonte were all turned on, and more than 60,000 crazy samba people gathered in the stadium. Brazil's home jersey is like a sea of ​​yellow.

In today's semi-final, the two sides are the host Brazil team and the traditional powerful German team. The veritable battle of the century has naturally attracted the attention of hundreds of millions of people around the world. There is still half an hour before the start of the game, and the fans can't hold back their hearts Excited, he yelled frantically at the crane camera across the air, showing his passion.

As soon as Yang Cheng entered the stadium, a powerful sound mixed with shouts and various horns hit his face. There were tens of thousands of fans who couldn't buy tickets and couldn't enter the stadium gathered outside the stadium, but they still waited in the stadium Under the big screen, they contributed their strength to the players on the field. They stamped their feet, sang songs, and danced samba, waiting for the start of the game.

Only by visiting the stadium in person can you feel the charm of the world's largest sport. Modern football is not only a competition between teams, but also the glory of the country. In Brazil, no one does not love football, just like no one in this nation does not love Like s-e-x, when you go to the country's executives, celebrities, and rich people, and go to the slums, children who can't afford to eat or go to school, as long as they talk about football, they all smile and are full of interest.

For the past week, Yang Cheng's life has only been left with the two key words of football and sex. Watching football, carnival with Kerr all night, sleeping, eating delicious food, drinking fine wine, continuing to watch football, and cheering for the victory of the team he supports. Cheering, failure and frustration, every day is very happy and fulfilling, as if I have forgotten that I was followed by others.

The life of the instigator, Louis Lehman, was similar to that of Yang Cheng. Watching games and parties, he seemed to have really heeded Paul Lehman's warning and stopped troublesome Yang Cheng.

But no one knew that after Paul Lehman left the villa that day, Hansen, an uninvited guest, had visited, and no one knew that Louis Lehman readily agreed to Yang Cheng's invitation. As a lamb waiting to be slaughtered, he waited for the opportunity to pounce on it and bite off a piece of meat.

The Mineiro Stadium was renovated in 2012. The redesigned Mineiro Stadium adheres to the concept of environmental protection and uses many environmentally friendly materials for decoration. Of course, this does not include the VIP boxes on the top floor of the main stand. For the World Cup, it is convenient for the rich to watch better. For the World Cup, 20 VIP boxes of different sizes and decoration styles were specially built.

When Yang Cheng took Miranda Kerr's hand and entered the largest box in the middle, he realized that there were quite a few people here today.

To be honest, Yang Cheng was lucky to be able to enter the box. That day he arranged for Hansen to send an invitation to Louis Lehman, and after getting an affirmative answer, he asked people to book a box for this game. The result was dumbfounded. When the World Cup group stage is not over, it is divided up. The rich people mostly watch the game to watch the excitement, and they don’t care who the two sides are. Anyway, there will be no weak teams in the World Cup semi-finals. Even if there are, they will be super dark horses. That kind of game is more suspenseful, isn't it?

Later, I just learned that Anthony Arnott and his supermodel girlfriend Natalia traveled around the world and came to Brazil. They were invited by Dubai Crown Prince Hamandan to watch the semi-finals, so they rubbed against Anthony Arnott cheekily. Only because of his relationship can he enter the box, otherwise he will be ashamed.

But as soon as he entered the box, he XXOOed Anthony Arnott's girlfriend in his heart, "Master, tell me sooner, who likes to join in the fun, this is the war of the century, or the party of the century, If Uncle Osama bin Laden is still alive, throwing a bomb in this box will surely set off a financial tsunami and paralyze the economy of half the world, what kind of 911 is going on!"

LV Crown Prince Anthony Arnott and his girlfriend will not mention, Dubai Crown Prince Hamandan, Prince William and Princess Kate, Prince Harry,

Sam Branson - the son of Richard Branson, the founder of Virgin Atlantic, and a few people who are familiar but can't remember the names at the moment, either the tycoon or the second generation, in the box with an area of ​​just over 100 square meters, gathered A big man who is enough to influence the world's trillion-dollar scale, most people's legs tremble when they come in.

Miranda Kerr, who also recognized these people, subconsciously hugged Yang Cheng's arm. Although she is considered to be at the top of the pyramid in the supermodel world, her little achievement is in front of the boss who can really dominate the direction of the world economy. Not worth mentioning at all.

"Hey, Jason, you're here, how are you doing?" Here, Yang Cheng and Anthony Arnott are the most familiar, politely smiled at the guests in the box, and came to Anthony's side.

"Very good, so many people today? Do you want to talk about something?" Yang Cheng leaned over and asked softly.

"No, you were invited by me. William and Harry were invited by Harmandan, and Sam was invited by Harry. It's a coincidence. I was shocked when I first came in." Anthony was not stage fright, It's that the people in the venue know each other but are not familiar with each other, and they are from different fields. The ages are far apart, there is no common language, and the atmosphere is a bit awkward.

As the owner of the box, Prince Harmandan has always been aloof, and would not take the initiative to stir up the atmosphere, which caused the heat of the place to be low and a bit cold, which was also the reason why Yang Cheng felt uncomfortable as soon as he entered.

Now the scene is clearly divided into 4 small groups, each occupying a corner and talking in a low voice.

The three princes and their female companions occupied the salon area; Sam Branson and several young second-generations occupied the bar counter; several older ones were smelling a cigar in the cigar area, Yang Cheng recalled One should be a director of the Volkswagen Group, a German, who is probably here to support his country today, and the rest are also the owners of financial magazines; and Yang Cheng and Anthony Arnott, who did not expect Miranda Kerr They actually knew each other with Natalia, that's right, both of them are in the modeling industry, there are only a few top ones, who doesn't know who.

"Jason, when did you fall in love with football?" Anthony poured a glass of red wine for Yang Cheng, glanced at his fiancée and Miranda Kerr who were having a good time, and chatted casually.

"I'm just here to join in the fun and run some errands. What about you? Leave after watching this? Or watch the final?" Yang Cheng sipped her red wine, looked at the time hanging on the wall, and muttered to Louis Why hasn't Lehman come yet? Will he not come?

"Let's watch the finals. The World Cup is a grand event held every four years. It would be a pity to miss it."

As soon as Anthony finished speaking, the door of the box was pushed open again. The corners of Yang Cheng's mouth curled up and then fell back quickly. He thought it was Louis Lehman who had arrived, but it turned out that Beckham's charming face and his wife Victoria were revealed.

"Say hello in the past?" Yang Cheng turned to ask Anthony. The two of them knew the Beckhams, mainly because Victoria was long-sleeved and good at dancing, and had good contacts in the fashion circle. The couple could often be seen at high-end parties in the United States. Two figures.

Anthony nodded indifferently, "OK, let me introduce Harmandan to you, haven't you met?"

Yang Cheng recalled it for a few seconds, shook his head and said, "No, I have met Mansur a few times."

Sheikh Mansour is a member of the royal family of the Emirate of Abu Dhabi. He is the Middle Eastern tycoon who bought the Premier League Manchester City. He is also a member of the board of directors of the world's largest sovereign wealth fund - Abu Dhabi Investment Authority. His personal wealth exceeds 20 billion pounds.

In terms of kinship, Harmandan should call Mansur his uncle.

Walking to the salon area, after the Beckhams finished greeting the princes, Anthony said, "Hamandan, let me introduce you to a new friend, Yang Cheng, the heir of Yuanshan Capital, just call him Jason. "

"Jason, this is the Crown Prince of Dubai, Harmandan Maktoum, who is on the same path as us. Let's take this opportunity to get to know each other and exchange experiences in the future."

"Hello, Harmandan, it's an honor to meet you." Yang Cheng did not lower his posture to call Harmandan His Highness, and he was not Harmandan's subordinate.

"Hi, nice to meet you too, Jason, Anthony said that we are in the same boat, and it seems to be true, with a good vision." Harmandan pointed to Miranda Kerr behind Yang Cheng, and smiled at Yang Cheng Cheng made a look that any man could understand.

Harmandan is not so cold to the young people of the same class, and he smiles very charmingly, as if God favors the Middle East, and it is not enough to give them huge wealth, but also to give them a superior appearance.

In her previous life, Yang Cheng had searched for information on the royal families of the Middle East on the Internet. Whether it was a prince or a princess, there was no such thing as ugly if they had beautiful faces that made people jealous.

After exchanging a few pleasantries, they greeted the two princes William and Harry respectively. The two of them meet occasionally, and the relationship is not very close. They just nodded.

"David, it's been a long time, Vicky, you haven't been to New York for a long time, my mother often misses you." Yang Cheng shook hands with Beckham, and kissed Victoria twice. Liu Yun was very happy. Appreciate Victoria, and often praise her for living out the demeanor of a modern woman.

"Jason, you know, my little 7 is still young, and I can't live without me, and I haven't left Los Angeles for a long time." Victoria said helplessly, but the happy look on her face made others envious. A pair of children is the first of its kind in the style of star couples, has been imitated, has never been surpassed.

At this time, through the frosted glass, the fans outside the box suddenly stood up, waving their fists and yelling at the field. Yang Cheng was still puzzled, and Beckham helped explain, "It should be that the players from both sides have finished warming up and returned to the locker room." , the fans are cheering for the players, and the game is about to start."

Yang Cheng nodded knowingly, turned around, put the wine glass on the table, and when she raised her head again, her eyes happened to meet a familiar annoying face, poking her head in from outside the box looking for something .

Who else could there be besides Louis Lehman whom Yang Cheng was thinking about? The moment Yang Cheng saw him, Yang Cheng seemed to see a moving gold ingot.

He waved to Louis, and then said to Harmandan, "Hamandan, that is Louis Lehman, the youngest son of Paul Lehman of 3G Capital, don't you mind asking him to watch the game together in the box?"

"Of course I don't mind, you can do whatever you want." Harmandan waved his hand and answered casually while discussing the odds with the people from the gaming company.

Most of the people in the box are from Europe. They don’t know much about Louis Lehman, but everyone has heard Yang Cheng’s introduction just now. Paul Lehman’s name is still very famous in Europe. Back then, AB InBev was acquired They became famous in one fell swoop and their wealth was astonishing, so they all nodded to Louis Lehman.

Only Anthony Arnott frowned and came to Yang Cheng, stared at Louis Lehman shaking hands with others, and said in a low voice, "Are you friends with him?"

"Hehe, you know him too?" Yang Cheng smiled contemptuously, but asked rhetorically instead of answering directly.

"I've heard it, but the reputation is not very good..." Anthony was still a gentleman, and his words were rather cryptic.

Yang Cheng smiled, "Don't worry, how can I be friends with him, it's just a misunderstanding that needs to be resolved."

After finishing speaking, he didn't give the stunned Anthony a chance to ask a question, and stepped forward with a mocking smile on the corner of his mouth, "Louis, is your man okay?"
