"Get out of my way!" Tyson Fury pushed Gakwood away.
In front of Tyson Fury, Gaikwood is like a chicken, unable to fight back. He fell to the ground, but he kept saying: "If you want to return the deposit, you can't lose the spirit of the contract!"
"Spirit of the contract?" Tyson Fury glared at Gaikwood with a mocking look on his face: "What deposit? I don't understand what you are talking about!"
Tyson Fury is obviously planning to turn his back on his fault, but Gaikwood has no choice.
Watching Tyson Fury go away, Gaikwood got up from the ground, patted the dirt on his clothes, and walked into his car in despair.
"I hope Mr. Omi can forgive me!" Gaikwood thought silently in his heart.
…
"How can I forgive you? I remember I once told you, if you don't get the money back, don't come back? What about my money?" Omi roared at Gaikwood, who was hesitant to speak. Kerwood waved his hand and continued: "Okay, don't say any more, you are fired from today!"
"Boss, please, please don't do this, I still have..." Gaikwood immediately began to beg for mercy.
"If you don't disappear from me, I'm going to call security!" Omi snorted, and Gaikwood immediately stopped his voice and walked out dejectedly.
Gaikwood walked down the street in despair, with confusion in his eyes. For him, unemployment really seemed like a bolt from the blue, turning him into a walking zombie.
“I’m still carrying a ten-year mortgage, and my son is still in middle school in the United States. What will they do if I lose my job? If I can’t pay the mortgage, my family will be evicted from the house and live on the street; My sons can’t finish their studies either. They will enter a first-class university and work in Silicon Valley in the future! How can this be? No! I can’t just be unemployed. I have to make money for my family!”
Gaikwood's salary is definitely high among Indians, but Indians don't have any savings habits, and the same goes for Gaikwood. His generous salary is spent every month, so career means a lot to Gaikwood. To lose everything.
With Gaikwood's qualifications, it is not very difficult to find a job in India, but finding a job takes time, and Gaikwood needs money now, at least for next month's housing loan and his son's living expenses. Earn it so he doesn't go bankrupt until he finds a new job.
"I've been with Omi for so many years, and he fired me when he said he was fired! I don't care about any friendship at all. Fortunately, I also left some things, which should be able to be sold at a good price." Gaikwood thought of this. , took out his mobile phone and found a number. He hesitated for a moment and finally dialed the number.
"Hey, do you remember me? Gaikwood! Yes, that's the Indian Gaikwood. I have some content you are interested in here, which is about the dispute between Zhang Guan and the Maliya Group. I can give you a little bit of information. Let me tell you, this dispute is worth 500 million U.S. dollars! We can meet and discuss the details in detail. I can guarantee that the content will be absolutely explosive and enough for you to write a news report for a week! However, I have revealed such huge information to you, but you have to bear the risk. Yes, so in terms of the cost of breaking the news... Okay, I understand, I guarantee it will be absolutely value for money."
Gaikwood breathed a sigh of relief. He hung up the phone and thought about it carefully. He felt that he should shop around, so he dialed another reporter's number.
…
"This year's F1 European race will still be held in Valencia, Spain." Ross Brawn said.
"Still? Wasn't the previous European station in Valencia?" Zhang Guan asked.
"The location of the European Grand Prix has been changing. Many countries in Europe have been the venues for the F1 European Grand Prix. In Schumacher's era, the European Grand Prix was held in Germany. Alonso won two consecutive championships. The station moved to Spain again.”
Ross Brown continued: "Valencia is a street race. You should think that the track is very narrow, the road is twisty, the speed is slow, and overtaking is difficult! But Valencia is different. Although it is a street race, race, but the track is very wide, even the narrowest part is 14 meters. There are large and fast corners in the track, and there are many opportunities for overtaking, so Valencia is a high-speed track."
Zhang Guan noticed that there was no worry in Ross Brown's tone, but a hint of expectation. He immediately said: "Looking at your confidence, is our kinetic energy recovery system ready?"
"Yes, the new kinetic energy recovery system has completed the first phase of testing. We will use it in the next Valencia race. With the kinetic energy recovery system, we will have great advantages on high-speed tracks. Obviously. At least in terms of speed, we won't be outdone by Ferrari, McLaren or Red Bull like in the previous races." Ross Brawn said.
"Since the end of the British race, I haven't tasted the championship for two consecutive races." Zhang Guan said.
"I have another piece of news that interests you. Schumacher is coming back!" Ross Brawn said.
"Schumacher is back? Will he replace the injured Felipe Massa?" Zhang Guan asked.
"Yes, Massa suffered a head injury in the last race. There is no hope of returning to the track this season. Ferrari is also preparing to give up this season and shift its focus to the development of new cars for next season. And Schumacher's The comeback should excite F1 fans for a while, and Ferrari will once again become the focus of all teams. I believe that both teams and sponsors are very willing to see this result." Ross Brawn frowned and thought for a moment , and then said: "But you don't have to worry, every car is tuned differently. That car originally belonged to Massa, and the car tuning was also based on Massa's driving habits. Even the car king Schumacher, driving A car that doesn’t belong to you won’t produce good results.”
Zhang Guan recalled it carefully. He remembered that after Schumacher announced his dedication, only two weeks later he announced the cancellation of his F1 comeback plan due to physical reasons. He was unable to sit in the red Ferrari again, which also disappointed most people. Most car fans went from being wildly confident to having their dreams shattered.
Driving an F1 car to participate in a competition is a very physically demanding time. Maybe the car king who has been idle for several years really cannot adapt to the rhythm of F1 competition in just one month. The real time Schumacher will pay is next season, and the team he pays for is not a red Ferrari, but a silver Mercedes-Benz.
Thinking of this, Zhang Guan said: "Maybe Schumacher's comeback is just talk, maybe he is not ready at all."
"I don't rule out this possibility, but don't underestimate Schumacher's determination. I have been with him for so many years, and he is a person who refuses to admit defeat." As Ross Brawn was talking, his phone suddenly vibrated. A text message came.
Ross Brown picked up the phone and took a look at the text message. Surprise suddenly appeared on his face.
He raised his head and said to Zhang Guan: "The reporters found out about the 500 million bet!"
…
"The largest bet in history, a $500 million bet!" 》
Seeing this title, Zhang Guan clicked on the news without hesitation, and said to himself at the same time: "How did the reporter know about this! And they even have a photocopy of the bet. They never Where did you get this?”
"There are only two places to get photocopies of the contract. One is from you and the other is from the Maliya family. There must be some differences in the signatures on the two contracts. You just need to check the signatures on them and take a look. If it matches the signature on your hand, you will know where this contract was leaked." Ross Brown said.
Zhang Guan immediately made a phone call to confirm, and soon he got the news that the signature on the photocopy of the contract that appeared in the news was different from the one he had in his hand. In other words, this contract is not the one he holds, but was leaked from the Maliya family.
"It was the Maliya family that leaked it. Why did they leak this contract? Is it any good for them?" Zhang Guan lowered his head and thought silently.
Ross Brown next to him showed a smile like an old fox, and he said: "If my guess is correct, a reporter will soon ask you to verify the authenticity of this 500 million bet. What are you going to do? response?"
Zhang Guan shook his head: "I haven't figured out how to deal with it yet. That's 500 million US dollars, and it might become a big trouble. I'm worried that someone will make a big fuss out of it. You know, I am an athlete after all, so big The number, maybe someone has something to do with the professional ethics of some athletes."
Ross Brown nodded in understanding. With Zhang Guan's current status, a bet of several million US dollars or even tens of millions of US dollars would not attract too much gossip. For example, those sports stars in the United States spend a lot of money in nightclubs, spending hundreds of thousands of dollars a night. People even take it for granted, because they are all worth hundreds of millions of dollars. A person of 100 million is not considered a luxury.
But the amount of US$500 million is so huge that it is hard not to think of it with other things, and some may even want to forcefully take a piece of it.
"I guess the Maria family must really hope that you will respond vaguely, and even hope that you will give a negative answer." Ross Brown said with a smile.
"Why do you think so?" Zhang Guan asked.
"Because that will be the basis for them to deny the debt. If you say that there is no such bet, then they can use this as a basis to directly deny the debt. Even if you are vague and do not admit or deny, they will not magnify it. Admit it, it's going to be very detrimental to you," Ross Brown said.
"But we have a contract, it is written clearly in black and white, and there were lawyers on site at the time. There is nothing they can do if they want to default on the bill!" Zhang Guan argued.
"So what can be written in black and white? The legal system of the Commonwealth may seem fair, but in fact there can be many loopholes to exploit. The party in the dispute may finally get fair treatment, but the price he pays may even be higher than what he gets. More," Ross Brown said.
Zhang Guan nodded thoughtfully. Although what Ross Brown said was a little unclear, it made Zhang Guan feel a little wary.
At this moment, Zhang Guan's cell phone rang, it was He Yiming calling.
"Brother He, what's the matter?" Zhang Guan answered the phone.
"You should know about the exposure of the $500 million bet, right? Someone from the Maliya family called me just now. I hope that neither of us will respond to this matter." He Yiming said.
"No response? Are they referring to neither admitting nor denying?" Zhang Guan became more vigilant.
"Yes. The Maliya family said that once the $500 million bet is confirmed, it is likely to affect the stock price of their holding company and cause them additional economic losses. They said they will definitely abide by the bet, but they hope that we will We can cooperate to reduce their losses as much as possible." He Yiming said.
"Is this what they said orally?" Zhang Guan suddenly asked.
He Yiming on the other side of the phone was stunned for a moment, and then said: "I said it verbally. There is no need to go to India to sign a contract for this kind of thing, right?"
"I know." Zhang Guan thought for a few seconds and said casually: "Brother He, please help me promise them first, just say that we will not accept interviews from reporters about this 500 million US dollar bet. And then go Draft a public statement for me, saying that this bet is real, attach a photocopy of our contract, and arrange an interview with the lawyer who witnessed it at the time."
"Are you trying to trick them?" He Yiming suddenly laughed, and then said: "But the two lawyers who witnessed the signing of the contract may not be interviewed. After all, it involves the privacy of the client."
"Then give them authorization. At least our authorization can be given to them!"
Zhang Guan hung up the phone, took a slow breath, looked at Ross Brown again, and found that Ross Brown was looking at him with a smile.
"Mr. Brown, thank you for the reminder." Zhang Guan said.
"It's nothing, you are my boss. I remember when you came to me last year, you said that after you win the 500 million US dollars, you will give me a bonus. For my bonus, I will also Let you grab this $500 million in your hands." Ross Brown replied with a smile.
"Actually, I still don't understand. Since they have the contract in hand, why do they still default on the debt? You just mentioned the Commonwealth's legal system. Will they seek administrative help? Can they meet the legal system administratively?" Zhang Guan asked.
"The law is the law, and no one is above the law, at least that's what it says on the surface." Ross Brown continued: "But this does not mean that the Maria family has no other ways to default on their debts. Let me ask you, if If you win the F1 annual championship, but the Maria family refuses to pay you, what are you going to do?"
"Take legal channels and sue them. Anyway, I have a contract, and I had a professional lawyer witness when I signed the contract." Zhang Guan said.
"Yes, but after being sued, they can first ask for an out-of-court settlement..." Ross Brown began to explain.
…
Maria family.
"Zhang Guan's agent just gave us a reply. They said they would not accept interviews from reporters."
"Great! It seems that our plan was successful, and Zhang Guan fell into the trap! Although Omi swore that Zhang Guan could not win the F1 championship, we all know that the situation is already very unoptimistic. Maybe Zhang Guan will win again. Winning one or two games will prevent other drivers from having a chance to make a comeback. So we must buy insurance! The exposure of the 500 million bet just gave us an opportunity." It was Omi's uncle who spoke.
Omi's father was also there. Although his face was very ugly, he still put on a smile and said to a man in his fifties next to him: "Lawyer Noel, what did you say?" , we all did it, so can you tell me, what are you going to do? How can you help us save these 500 million US dollars?"
