Chapter 383 The target appears
In fact, there were quite a few people looking at Wang Xiucheng, and even taking pictures of him with their phones.
After all, Wang Xiucheng's performance yesterday was absolutely phenomenal.
Anyone who comes to watch horse racing is a sports fan.
Therefore, Wang Xiucheng did not pay too much attention to these gazes.
He was simply waiting for his prey.
"Is it Wang Xiucheng?" Liu Shishi's best friend covered her mouth in shock.
"It seems to be him." Liu Shishi was also shocked.
The two were whispering about Wang Xiucheng last night, and today they actually met him in person in Saudi Arabia?
Is the world such a small place?
"Go on, go up and say hello," her best friend urged Liu Shishi. "Have you forgotten what we talked about last night?"
Her best friend whispered, "He's not only handsome, but also very rich. You should hurry up and win him over while he still doesn't have a girlfriend."
"Are you sick?" Liu Shishi retorted angrily.
"I'm not sick, but if you don't find a man soon, you'll be sick soon."
Looking at her outspoken best friend, Liu Shishi felt like tearing her mouth apart.
Fortunately, a middle-aged man wearing a white headscarf returned from a distance with several bottles of water. The best friend immediately put on an innocent and harmless demeanor, acting like a well-bred lady, reserved and warm towards the man in the white headscarf, appearing virtuous and gentle.
Liu Shishi shook her head helplessly, then looked at Wang Xiucheng on the steps in the distance, chatting with someone on the platform.
"Why is he here? Didn't he participate in a dunk contest yesterday?"
Wang Xiucheng and Jassim stood on the steps and chatted as if no one else was around.
Wang Xiucheng stood on the step below, making the two appear to be about the same height, so they kept looking at each other and talking.
Jassim stood with his arms crossed, and Wang Xiucheng stood with his hands in his pockets, the two of them attracting all eyes like two models.
Liu Shishi couldn't help but take out her phone, switch to telephoto mode, and take a picture of Wang Xiucheng.
Then some of them, feeling guilty, quickly put their phones away, not even daring to check the image quality of the photos.
Just then, two bodyguards opened the VIP passage not far away, and two people walked in.
This is a man and a woman. The man looks to be under 30 years old, wearing a simple suit, and has freckles typical of Westerners on his face.
The woman was around 25 years old, wearing a long skirt, and appeared quite poised and elegant.
The appearance of these two men did not attract the attention of others, after all, there were quite a few Westerners watching the horse races today.
But Jassim saw the two people at that moment and said, "Excuse me."
After greeting Wang Xiucheng, Jassim walked towards the two of them.
Wang Xiucheng and Fahad sat down.
However, Wang Xiucheng smiled slightly.
The target appeared!
These two people are Wang Xiucheng's targets today.
In the distance, Jassim reached out and shook hands with the two men.
"Welcome, Mr. David Wertheimer."
The man, who looked to be under 30, smiled and replied, "Just call me David."
"I saw Mr. Jassim chatting with Wang just now?"
David pointed to the spot where Wang Xiucheng was sitting in the distance.
He certainly knew Wang Xiucheng, and not just because Wang Xiucheng was an NBA player.
Furthermore, Wang Xiucheng unexpectedly won 43 billion from Fertitta overnight.
This matter has been the biggest topic of conversation in their family and even their social circle for the past few months.
“Yes, Mr. Wang just participated in the dunk contest yesterday and only arrived in Saudi Arabia last night. He was invited by me,” Jassim said.
"Could you introduce me to someone?" David asked, a look of interest on his face.
He was indeed very interested in Wang Xiucheng.
Within their circle, there are two very extreme opinions about Wang Xiucheng.
One is the "lucky speculator".
There is also the "strategist".
The former, including the Wertheimer and Gutfrund families, are proponents of this view.
The second view, namely that of the "strategists," is that of some families, including the Rothschild family and the Wildenstein family.
They believe that Wang Xiucheng's overnight win of 43 billion yuan, seemingly a lucky speculative act, easily makes people overlook the fact that Wang Xiucheng had already lost millions in Las Vegas before.
They believe that Wang Xiucheng's previous losses of several million were intentional.
It's all for that final, fatal blow!
Despite their best efforts, they still couldn't figure out why Wang Xiucheng knew the scores of two of the three matches.
It seems like it really was luck, it really was "speculation".
Jassim nodded upon hearing this and led David to Wang Xiucheng.
“Mr. Wang, this is David Wertheimer of the Wertheimer family.”
"Mr. David Wertheimer, this is Mr. Wang Xiucheng, a player for the Brooklyn Nets in the NBA."
Wang Xiucheng first showed a shocked expression, then reached out and shook hands with David.
"I watched Mr. Wang's dunk contest yesterday, it was truly amazing. Mr. Wang's physical abilities are so much better than those of us ordinary people."
David said enviously.
Wang Xiucheng waved his hand awkwardly, and was about to say a few polite words when his phone rang.
Wang Xiucheng didn't avoid David Wertheimer and Jassim, but answered the call directly.
"Yes, bet 100 million on horse number three."
After saying that, Wang Xiucheng put the phone away.
David Wertheimer asked with some surprise, "Wang Xiucheng just now?"
"Oh, I'll have a friend in Las Vegas buy me some so I can have some fun."
Wang Xiucheng pointed to the scene of horses being walked in the arena: "You know Las Vegas doesn't welcome me now, so I can only ask my friends for help."
"Mr. Wang is also interested in horses?" David Wertheimer sat down and started chatting with Wang Xiucheng.
"I wouldn't say I'm interested, but I really long for horseback riding. Now that I have some money, I bought a horse farm near Paris, but I haven't gone to see it yet," Wang Xiucheng said casually.
David Wertheimer was slightly surprised.
As the fifth generation of the Wertheimer family, they have always loved horses, kept them, and even participated in various races.
In today's Saudi race, one of the 15 horses on the field belongs to them.
Not only the Wertheimer family, but all the well-known ancient families in the Western world have a deep passion for horse racing.
For this ancient family, horse racing is a symbol of status.
"Mr. Wang, do you think so highly of horse number 3?" David Wertheimer asked again.
"I've been watching this for half an hour. Look, this horse has strong, powerful calves, and the muscle lines on both sides are sharp and clearly defined..."
Wang Xiucheng talked for a long time, and David Wertheimer was still a little confused, but he felt that it made a lot of sense.
"Where would Mr. Wang know all this?" David Wertheimer finally asked.
“Hong Kong movies,” Wang Xiucheng said. “You know, horse racing is very developed in Hong Kong. Their TV dramas often have these kinds of scenes. I used to watch them a lot, so I learned them.”
David Wertheimer's face darkened upon hearing this.
