Li, the richest man, laughed and said, "I'm the same as Wei Xiaoyou. I bet that England can't win the championship. I'm betting 20 billion." Wow, there was another uproar in the field. 20 billion, although not as much as 50 billion, but for Guo Erfu, it will be a bet of 70 billion. Guo Erfu gritted his teeth and said, "I accept it. Let's notarize it together."

"Wait, Lao Li, you already support Wei Xiaoyou, he is my savior, I support him too, I bet 10 billion, I wonder if you, Boss Guo, will accept it?" At this time, Lao Huo came out, Wei Jixiang hurriedly stepped forward to greet him, "Lao Huo, you don't have to be like this" Lao Huo said, "Hey, why can't I support you, no one is guaranteed to win"

"Haha, how exciting! I, Old Bao, also want to join in the fun. I'm also betting 10 billion that England can't win the championship." At this time, the charter king also spoke out loudly. He has always disliked Guo Erfu, and he would definitely not let go of any chance to embarrass him.

Guo Erfu's face turned ugly. "Okay, okay, since everyone is interested in taking a gamble, I, Old Guo, will take it. Who else, please place a bet together? I can't refuse the money if you give it to me, Old Guo."

"Oh, really? Boss Guo is really generous. I, Xiao Ma, will also take 10 billion to make some pocket money by riding on the momentum of all the seniors." Guo Erfu took a look and sneered, "Who was I at that time? It turned out to be Boss Po Hao Ma. I took it."

Ma Yanqiang, his father Ma Xiru and his uncle Ma Xizhen are the two Ma brothers who sold more flour than the first generation of Crippled Ho, Wu Xihao. They fled to Taiwan because they were wanted by the Hong Kong Independent Commission Against Corruption. The Hong Kong industry "Oriental Daily News" was inherited by Ma Yanqiang. Like a father, he has a son. He put the "Oriental Daily News" on the right track and made it the best-selling newspaper in Hong Kong. In addition to the huge wealth of his father and uncle in Taiwan, the Ma family is also a super-rich family that cannot be underestimated. Why does he dislike Guo Erfu? That is because his nickname "Second Generation Crippled Ho" was given by Guo Erfu. Everyone has a face. You, Guo Erfu, humiliated others like this, and the seeds of hatred have been planted.

The gambling game was officially established, and the news spread throughout Hong Kong and other countries, including Europe. This gambling game broke the Guinness World Record for the largest gambling amount and was officially included!

This time, under the instigation of Wei Jixiang, Guo Erfu gambled the entire Guo family. If the Guo family loses, they will have to pay 30 billion Hong Kong dollars. Although the Guo family has tens of billions of assets, more than half of it is stock valuation. Some time ago, they also gave 15 billion to the kidnappers. Once the news spreads, those who have grudges against the Guo family and dislike the Guo family will they let him go?

As for the other party in the bet, the 20 billion of the Li family is not a big loss for the Li family. Just think of it as a ransom. The other Huo family, Bao family, and Ma family paid 10 billion, which is not a big loss. The only one who may be hurt the most is Wei Jixiang, but will Wei Jixiang lose? He is standing in the perspective of God! This time, the Guo family will be skinned, and perhaps the entire Guo family will never recover and decline!

As a result, the popularity of the European Cup, which was originally only of concern to Europe, surged unprecedentedly, especially in Hong Kong. People who watched or didn't watch the football started paying attention to the European Cup. The European Cup and the 100 billion gamble of the century became the top news in 1996.

The 1996 European Cup in England was the first European Championship hosted by England after the finals were expanded to sixteen teams. This time, the England team formed the strongest team in history, with stars in every position. This was also the reason why Guo Erfu dared to bet that the England team would win the championship, but the ball is round and nothing can be predicted.

England dealt Guo Erfu a heavy blow in the first game, drawing with Switzerland 1:1, which made Guo Erfu unable to eat well for several days. Fortunately, England had a solid foundation and then defeated Scotland 2:0. Gascoigne also scored a classic goal. The 4-1 victory over the Netherlands allowed England to qualify for the group stage and advance to the quarterfinals. Guo Erfu's old face was full of smiles, and he looked a few years younger.

After 120 minutes of fierce battle, England tied with Spain. At that time, the Spanish bullfighters were not very strong. After a thrilling penalty shootout, they fell under the iron hoof of England. Guo Erfu smiled so hard that his teeth were exposed!

As the saying goes, penalties make or break a team. When facing the German tank, Shearer scored the first goal for England in the first three minutes. Guo Erfu opened a bottle of Romanee-Conti, but before he finished the wine, Kuntz quickly equalized the score. Gascoigne missed the winning goal in extra time. Guo Erfu smashed his beloved purple clay teapot. In the penalty shootout, both sides scored in the regular five rounds, but Southgate missed the key penalty in the sixth round. Guo Erfu collapsed at home, having difficulty breathing, and was rushed to the hospital by his family for emergency treatment.

Wei Jixiang looked at the result of the game without any waves in his heart. Everything was under control. Phone calls of congratulations kept coming in. Wei Jixiang sent out several messages saying, "It's time to take action."

The next day, as England was eliminated, Guo Erfu was rushed to the hospital for emergency treatment. As the news came out, Guo's stocks plummeted. At this time, the Guo family should have come up with a large amount of cash to save the market, but Guo Erfu hadn't woken up in the hospital yet. Wei Jixiang immediately sent his men to the Guo family to collect debts, making it impossible for the Guo family to ask for help to save the market. The several major families that had agreed to take advantage of the situation to erode Guo's company stocks and markets.

On the third day, Guo Erfu woke up in the hospital. Looking at his noisy family members, he had a bad feeling. "What happened? It's all here. Doesn't the company ask?" His son immediately cried, "The company's stock price plummeted. The Li, Huo, Bao, and Ma families have joined forces to suppress our stock price. We have suffered heavy losses." Guo Erfu was anxious, "Why don't you ask your uncle Liu for help?" Mrs. Guo cried, "The house was surrounded by Wei Jixiang's people. They are asking for debts. We can't even hide. Who dares to help us?" Guo Erfu was so angry that he spurted out a mouthful of blood. "Wei Jixiang, I, Guo Er, will never stop fighting with you. Hurry up and call Uncle Liu."

With Guo Erfu's discharge from the hospital and Liu's massive rescue funds, the Guo family, which was on the verge of collapse, was finally stabilized. However, the Guo family suffered heavy losses, and their assets were basically halved. Coupled with the compensation paid to Wei Jixiang and various bets, the Guo family suddenly fell from a billionaire to a ten billionaire. They can no longer be called rich people, but only wealthy people. Now the Guo family is no longer a threat in the eyes of other wealthy people. Those who were suppressed by the Guo family in the past are now ready to pounce on them at any time to take a bite. Anyway, the Guo family will basically be removed from the Hong Kong rich list in the future!

Compared with the decline of the Guo family, the name Wei Jixiang has quickly risen in the circle of wealthy people in Hong Kong. Some people have ranked him in the top 10 of the Hong Kong rich list. For Wei Jixiang, who was still in Stanley Prison in Hong Kong a few years ago, his story of making a fortune is legendary!
