Chapter 1429 1412. "The Times" Comes (35)

The next two games are the most exciting, and the fourth game is the alpaca game.

The running speed of alpacas is very good. They have strong endurance, calm temperament or cuteness. You don’t need to wear blindfolds.

The fifth game is a senior competition. The knights are all senior students and ride Icelandic horses, which is already close to the regular competition.

These two races pushed the event to a climax, especially the last Icelandic horse race. The teenagers performed like regular jockeys, starting, accelerating, sprinting, and all stages of the posture were well done.

Five matches ended, and it was twelve o'clock. Led by the police and security guards, the audience left the field one after another.

In the end, the only thing left was to count the funds. The gambling funds raised in this game were about 6.8 million. In the end, after excluding the payouts, there were still nearly 4 million left.

Seeing the result, Wang Bo was taken aback and said, "So amazing?! How did you end up with so much money?"

“We would have made more money if we hadn’t left the horses with a higher percentage payout,” Harney said. “In gambling, the house always makes the money.”

Indeed, the odds of these horses are very high. Many horses pay 4 to 1 and pay 5 to 1. You must know that the odds of Tuhao Jin participating in the competition are only a little to 1 to 1.

This horse racing is different from ordinary horse racing, because people don't know much about jockeys and participating horses, so they can only bet blindly.

There is only one winner out of ten horses, and in terms of probability, only one of the ten bettors can get the payout.

If this wasn't a charity match, then the amount of bets wouldn't be so high. This time, many people came to join in the fun, and if they bet dozens of yuan casually, they would be equivalent to donating money.

Adding tickets and peripheral income, and finally adding up, the total income brought by this game is about 4.5 million.

Wang Bo, together with the Sunset Group, Oakley and others raised some more money, and put together an integer of five million, which was donated to the IKEA Foundation and the Red Cross.

For this reason, the Red Cross specially held a press conference in Sunset Town to thank Little Loli and other children for their dedication to charity activities.

Although a total of 50 children participated in the competition, the elementary and middle schools in Sunset Town actually contributed to this competition. The other children did not participate directly, but performed or volunteered to provide on-site services.

Therefore, this press conference was held like a school meeting. All the children arrived at the scene, and Xiao Luoli and several winners became representatives, and they went to the stage to accept the thanks from the officials of the foundation and the Red Cross.

Both the New Zealand Parliament and the National Aid Center sent people to attend the press conference. In addition, many famous international media also participated in the conference.

The most famous thing is that "Time" magazine has reporters here, and this issue of the magazine will report on it. Lao Wang was shocked when he saw their work cards.

Sunset Town has been reported by many famous media, and it is not the first time that it has been linked to the level of "Time" magazine.

However, you must know that this is "Times". Sunset Town used to be listed on this level of media because of tourism news, but this time it is listed on humanities and education, which is completely different in nature.

Wang Bo specially found a room to arrange an exclusive interview with them. The reporter smiled and said, "A room is too small, because we will take a big group photo for the children in this event, and they will be on the cover of our magazine."

Lao Wang was stunned by these words, and he asked, "Can this charity event be on the cover of Time Magazine? My God, I heard it right!"

The reporter nodded and said: "This is not an ordinary charity event. This is an event organized by your children. Our magazine believes that this is the most pure and flawless event ever. The children simply want to help those Great thought and action, poor man."

Old Wang also nodded: "You are right, the children did a great job, especially a girl named Jin Daier, you must have known that she came up with this idea. During the event, she also did a lot of work."

After all, he was a family member, so he had to quickly find a good cover position for Little Lolita.

In this event, Little Lolita has a high exposure rate, and many media mentioned her when reporting the event before.

There was also an interview with Wang Bo, mainly asking him about his experience in charity activities and experience in children's education. In the former, Lao Wang was able to handle it, and in the latter, he pulled his wife out again.

So later it became a reporter's exclusive interview with Eva, and Lao Wang sat next to him and added a few words. Eva's polite attitude and eloquent introduction obviously met the reporter's requirements.

In the afternoon, a photographer from Time magazine took pictures of the children.

Wang Bo cooperated and helped to choose the central square as the background. There are too many children, and only the square can spread out.

The cover photo of "Time" couldn't have been taken casually. Although they only sent one reporter, the team of photographers had five people, and they drove over in a camera van.

The little loli was placed in the middle, and fifty little knights were all dressed in horse racing suits. They were scattered among the student team, and then the photoshoot was completed.

In the evening, Wang Bo held a party for the children. Hundreds of children followed their parents to participate, and the scene was extremely lively.

The youngest son of Somali immigrant Suradi also participated in the horse race. He rode an alpaca and won the first place.

So at the beginning of the party, Suradi brought his youngest son to find Wang Bo to thank him: "Mayor, thank you so much, I heard that Valvelli will appear in "Time" magazine, this is really like a dream .”

Wang Bo shrugged and said, "This is what the children deserve. You don't have to thank me. Valvili did a great job. His ability to drive alpacas is great."

The skinny black boy said excitedly: "Mayor, I like alpacas, I like cattle and sheep, and I also like grass. I will be admitted to Lincoln University in the future, and then I will work on your ranch."

Wang Bo smiled and said, "Of course I welcome it very much."

After he finished speaking, he tasted it and added: "You don't need to thank me so much, I feel like I have become a nobleman in the middle ages, you are my sharecroppers, haha."

Suradi said: "Of course you are not a nobleman. You are the best mayor. I am proud of Valvili. This kid is helping the weak, and we have always been treated as weak before."

As he spoke, he almost shed tears.

Old Wang felt quite embarrassed, so he quickly hugged him and patted his back and said, "Valveli will do more things to make you proud in the future, he is an outstanding boy."

The black teen puffed out his chest and his face had a confidence his father never had.
