William Hill Gambling Company Headquarters, UK.

The betting department manager hurriedly knocked on the door of CEO Ralph O Topin's office.

Ten minutes later, senior executives, including group chairman Gareth and Davis, appeared in the senior conference room.

It seemed that there was an emergency and major accident, and the atmosphere was very tense.

"What the hell?" Gareth Davis asked nervously.

Just ten minutes ago, a phone call from Ralph Topin asked him to let go of everything and appear here.

But he knew nothing about what happened.

Ralph O Toppin nodded to the betting department manager beside him, who stood up.

"Everyone, we just received a betting order ten minutes ago."

When he spoke, everyone in the conference room fell silent and listened attentively.

Everyone knew very well that there must be something wrong with this betting order, otherwise how could all the senior executives be called for a meeting for no reason? Are you idle and planning to invite afternoon tea?

“This betting order was received by us at the betting station outside Wembley Stadium, and the amount was as high as £1 million”

As soon as he finished speaking, everyone in the audience was upset.

"What? One million pounds?"

"Really? Who is that crazy?"

"This bet is too big, right? Who is it?"

"I'm afraid this is the largest bet order William Hill has ever received?"

“Absolutely”

Gareth or Davis also had a thunderous eyelid. The executive who had only airborne William Hill as chairman two years ago and had served as CEO of Imperial Tobacco for fourteen years was also shocked by this betting order.

One million pounds

What kind of talent can vote for this?

"Tell me about the specific situation." Gareth Davis pressed the complex emotions in his heart and asked patiently.

The betting department manager nodded, "The betting is either someone else, but the boss behind Southampton, Yang Huan."

"Is it him?"

"Yes, he is the only one who can mess around like this."

"Last year he made a big bet for Southampton events, but he won a lot of money. I heard that all of them were paid to the players, but he didn't expect that he would come back this year."

"It doesn't matter, the most important thing is that he actually gambles bigger and bigger."

There was a lot of discussion in the conference room, and the scene was very noisy.

Ralph O Toping saw that the situation was a little chaotic, so he had to cough twice, "Everyone"

He continued to say until everyone calmed down again.

"The bet of one million pounds is indeed quite large, and it is also the largest bet we have received so far, so we must pay very much attention to it. The incident two years ago was a warning."

The greater the betting amount, the greater the risk for the bookmaker.

Two years ago, William Hill, a gambling project at the Royal Ascot Jockey Club in the UK, directly caused the company to suffer heavy losses due to calculation errors. If it weren't for making a big profit in the World Cup, William Hill would have lost a lot.

It was because of this incident that the former chairman of the company Charleston resigned.

"As far as I know, Yang Huan is not just betting on our William Hill this time, he is also betting on Ladybo and B136, and the betting code for each bookmaker is one million pounds."

"What?" Everyone was shocked again.

Oh my God, one million for a family, that's a total of three million pounds?

Yaya Goebbels, their family won’t have the British pound, right?

How can I spend money like this?

Everyone started to talk again.

"Why?" Gareth or Davis seemed very calm.

At this time, shock or argument makes no sense, the most important thing is to solve the problem.

"I heard it was because of being angry." Ralph O Topin smiled bitterly.

"Agitate?" Gareth and Davis were so amazed and crying.

There were one or two people present, and they didn't know how interesting the expressions on their faces were.

Because of the gamble, every bookmaker bets one million pounds?

Good, my Young Master Huan, do you think this is a fun thing?

That's real money and one million pounds

"Someone heard a few words in the royal box. It seemed that Yang Huan felt that the odds we offered for Southampton were too low, so he was not convinced."

Gareth Davis flipped through an internal document in front of him and saw that Southampton's odds were 15, ranking seventh among Premier League teams this season, and he couldn't help but frown.

"What's going on with this odds? Southampton's championship odds are indeed a bit low."

This also reveals his unfamiliarity with the gambling industry, after all, he was airborne two years ago.

On the contrary, Ralph Toppin has been at William Hill for more than 30 years, starting from the grassroots level and moving step by step to the present.

Strictly speaking, this CEO is the company's powerhouse.

"When we calculate the odds, we don't just consider the overall strength of the team, but the most important thing for us is to control risks."

Everyone present nodded constantly, which involved very complicated calculations.

"Southampton is undoubtedly very strong, but this is their first season to play in the Premier League. Fans generally do not like this team, because there has never been a precedent for the promotional team to win the championship in the more than 100 years of the English top league."

Everyone nodded again after hearing this.

"Also, Southampton is very popular in the underground black market. Everyone knows that this team never plays counterfeit football, but in the eyes of regular bookmakers, he is still too strange. Who knows what will happen to their first Premier League season?"

"How many teams are so awesome in the low-level league, and even won the Premier League championship in the Cup. However, in the Premier League, they failed to relegate in the first season and returned to the low-level league. This is not without it."

This time, even Gareth and Davis nodded in agreement.

"Also, look at the schedule of the new season. For Southampton's first few rounds, it's a devil's schedule, but then look at the next page. There are a total of ten players in Southampton who have been transferred to play in the London Olympics."

"So much?" Gareth or Davis was a little surprised.

When I opened it, I found that there was really.

There are Sturridge, Gareth, Bale, Laville, Morrison in the British Olympic team, which is also the frontcourt trident attack combination that British Olympic team head coach Pierce trusts the most.

Spain has Javier Martinez, Azpilicueta, Isco and Cork.

These four players are also the main players of the Spanish National Olympic Team, and Spain is also the favorite team to win the championship in this Olympics.

The other three Olympic internationals are Brazil's Neymar, Danilo and Alex O'Sandro.

Among them, Neymar is the main force, while Danilo and Alex Sandro are substitutes for Raphael and Marcelo respectively.

"I really can't tell that Southampton is not only a star, but also a young player is so strong."

"No, the ten national players of the National Olympic Team are strong enough."

"But it's also tragic. Who is like Southampton in the Premier League?"

"Ten people went there at once, and even the lineups were not enough to be collected"

Let’s look at the schedule, they all face strong opponents like Manchester City, Manchester United, Arsenal and Everton, and they will play in the UEFA Cup. There will be another European Super Cup at the end of August.

It's really sad to think about it

Even if Gareth or Davis is not a professional, after reading so much information, he still understands why William Hill and other bookmakers give Southampton such low odds.

After all, as a newcomer, Southampton is too unfamiliar.

Especially considering that once the start is not played well, the whole season will be over

Thinking of this, Gareth Davis nodded and looked at Ralph Topin, "What do you think?"

"Connect" Ralph O Topin said almost without hesitation.

"It's not just about taking it. If other bookmakers want to transfer the risk, we will also accept it."

It seems that after internal evaluation of William Hill, it is very unfavorable to Southampton win the championship.

Even thinks this is impossible

Gareth Davis thought for a while and nodded, "Okay, then I'll take it."

William Hill, Ladybo and B136 each received a 1 million pound Premier League betting order. Although it caused an uproar within the three companies, it did not attract much attention from the outside world.

On the one hand, it is out of a confidentiality agreement that Yang Huan’s bet cannot be disclosed.

But more importantly, the highly anticipated London Olympics have begun

During the entire Olympics, Yang Huan took Zhuang Ziqing to travel through the major Olympic stadiums.
To be continued...
