Chapter 649: Ye Gambling King
The addition of three new comics to the September 6 issue of "Kirin Weekly" is a top priority in the minds of comic fans, but in the entire Hong Kong and Macao regions, the protagonist of this day is someone else. Pen fun and pavilion www.biquge.info
The protagonist of this day is the Ommen Horse Racing Club located in Ommen.
Located on Taipa Island, where the Aomen Racetrack is reclaimed, the Omun Racecourse covers an area of more than 200,000 square meters.
The so-called horse racing is a completely different activity from horse racing, as the name suggests, it is a two-wheeled bicycle race by a driver driving a horse, which is not very popular in Asia, but it also has a long history abroad.
Omen was originally the gambling capital, so in addition to chess and card slot machines and so on, there are also various gambling methods.
This horse racing club was established by Ye Han, the founder and managing director of the original SJM Group, and he obtained the franchise for 20 years, and began to build this venue in 1978, and it took two years and a construction cost of 150 million Hong Kong dollars to finally build it.
Speaking of the Aomen Horse Racing Club, it is undeniable that Ye Han was inspired by the Xiangjiang Jockey Club, but the reason for chasing it is still related to Ye Han's failure to compete for power with Ho Hongshen and his disgraceful withdrawal from the SJM Group.
Ye Han was unwilling to fail like this, so he held his breath and wanted to show the glory of the horse racing car in Aomen, and stand tall with the Jockey Club in Xiangjiang.
His way of operation is similar to that of Xiangjiang Horse Racing, with Solo Win, First Position, Winning Streak, Triple Treasure, Triple Ring, Quadruple Lottery...... And so on, there are many patterns, but for the people of the two cities of Xiangjiang and Aomen, it is all too familiar.
Because the carriage racing activity is a very novel thing, and Ye Han's reputation is also very big, as well as the endorsement of the Aomen government, the gambling is guaranteed, so on the day of the opening, more than 100,000 gamblers went to the entire carriage racing meeting, and the ticket money alone collected hundreds of thousands!
Now after such a week, the ticket money plus the betting profit, the gross profit of Ye Han's horse racing club is said to be as high as more than 30 million, which is really scary!
If you make money at this rate, Ye Han will have to earn more than 1.5 billion a year!
But everyone also knows that during the period of opening, everyone feels novel, and the money is the most, and when everyone gets used to it, it should be dull.
However, even so, Ye Han is also full of confidence in the future, he declared that in the next few years, he will increase investment, invite more foreign tourists to participate in this interesting betting, and actively increase the entertainment of horse racing betting, so that it will truly become another pillar of the Aomen gambling industry.
According to the grapevine, seeing Ye Han's success, the gambling king Ho Hongshen was very unhappy, and the management of SJM Group was scolded by him all over the past few days.
Just when everyone was speculating whether Ye Han would have to catch up with the Xiangjiang Jockey Club in five years or ten years, Yin Jun was not interested in such news at all.
Ye Han is indeed a gambling genius, growing up, and even after he retired to Las Vegas in the 90s, he has made a lot of money at the gambling table.
But in terms of running the company, he is too far behind Ho Hongshen.
The Horse Racing Club is simply a way of betting that does not know what to do, cumbersome, cumbersome, and not exciting, which is not at all in line with the gambling concept of the Orientals.
After a year or two of initial prosperity, the Carriage Club gradually fell into trouble, and in 1988, it lost 1 billion Hong Kong dollars in 8 years, making Ye Han I famous.
Tell me, what interest can Yin Jun have in such a doomed thing?
So even if Zheng Yutong invited Yin Jun to attend the opening meeting, Yin Jun did not pass.
Speaking of which, Zheng Yutong and He Hongshen have been old friends for many years, and they have a good relationship with Ye Han, otherwise two years later, he would not have been able to get the 13% stake in SJM in Ye Han's hands.
Whether Zheng Yutong calculated Ye Han with He Hongshen for the shares of SJM Group, Yin Jun didn't know.
But the young man also knew that 8 years later, when Ye Han reluctantly sold the Aomen Racetrack, He Gambling King was so excited that he had a banquet for a few days, but he was too happy.
After Ye Han sold the equity property of the Horse Racing Club to a businessman on the treasure island for 440 million Hong Kong dollars, he directly got a gambling boat on the high seas, which caused a sharp setback for the SJM Group.
A year later, Ye Han sold his gambling boat and officially retired.
At a time when making money is as easy as drinking water, he resolutely sold the gambling boat, which shows that Ye Han is not trying to make money at all, but purely to retaliate against He Hongshen's suppression of him.
Ye Han's revenge and free and easy character is also admired by Yin Jun very much.
This gambling god is different from He Hongshen, He Hongshen is a hypocrite, and Ye Han is a real villain.
If he wanted to deal with it, Yin Jun would rather deal with Ye Han than with He Hongshen. - Needless to say, he is vicious to his business partners, but for his own sister, he can squeeze, exploit, threaten, and take advantage of it, which is really not something ordinary people can do.
It's a coincidence.
On this day, Mr. Huo invited Yin Jun over for dinner, and the young man saw Ye Han at the banquet.
76-year-old Ye Han is a little thin, but full of energy, a pair of eyes are bright, he speaks in a loud voice, his eyebrows are dancing, and several guests are around him.
Huo Yingdong also smiled next to him and listened to him talk about the grand occasion of the horse race, but his performance was not as eager as those few.
Seeing Yin Jun coming, Huo Yingdong raised his hand and interrupted Ye Han's speech, "Brother Han, let me introduce you to a young talent." ”
"Oh, no, no. Ye Han stood up and said with a smile, "This is the genius that we have rarely seen in a hundred years in Xiangjiang - Yin Jun, Jun Shao, right?"
"Ye Dong is too polite, just call me Ah Jun. Yin Jun shook his hand and said.
Recently, Xiangjiang's TV stations have often broadcast interviews with Ye Han, and it is difficult not to know him.
"Hehe, then Ah Jun, don't be polite, just call me Hanbo. Ye Han shrugged and said, "Of course, at my age, you are more than a grandfather." When I see you, I feel like I'm really old!"
"Hanbo, you should be old and strong, and it will not be a problem to struggle for more than ten years. Yin Jun praised him, and then found a place to sit down.
Ye Han was very interested in Yin Jun, so he directly skipped a few acquaintances next to him, sat next to Yin Jun and chatted with him about the TV series.
Don't look at Ye Han has not invested in the TV and film industry, but Yin Jun has written two TV series about gambling, "The King of a Thousand Kings" and "The Winner is King".
The depiction of gambling in the two TV series is very vivid, even exaggerated, and even Ye Han can watch it with relish, so he thinks that Yin Jun should be very interested in gambling, and the two should have common interests and hobbies.
In this way, on the way to dinner, Ye Han was discussing the types and factions of gambling, as well as some techniques, completely stealing the limelight from Mr. Huo.
But Huo Yingdong didn't care.
It should be said that people of his age and this kind of experience are not so shallow.
What's more, Huo Yingdong and Ye Han are old friends, when they founded the SJM Group, they were founded by him, Ho Hongshen and Ye Han, if there is no friendship, how can Ye Han participate in the SJM Group led by Huo Yingdong?
In fact, Yin Jun also knows that over the years, Huo Yingdong is very unaccustomed to Ho Hongshen's things in the Macau Entertainment Group, and he has some sympathy for Ye Han, who was excluded.
In 88, Ye Han was forced to sell the shares of the Aomen Horse Racing Club, why did he pull up the gambling boat and go out to the open sea so quickly?
There is no support from people with a big background and great ability in this, can He Hongshen let him go?
The guests present, except for Yin Jun, according to Huo Yingdong's introduction, were all several subordinates of Huo Xingyetang who belonged to him, so only Yin Jun and Ye Han belonged to outsiders.
And after eating, Huo Yingdong asked them to go back first, and invited Yin Jun and Ye Han to sit in his study alone, Yin Jun was even more clear, I'm afraid today's dinner is not so simple.
Entering the study, his own servant brought the tea.
Huo Yingdong's study is very large, and the sofa is also very comfortable, and it is a very good rest to sit on.
After a few words of gossip, Huo Yingdong brought the topic to the main topic.
"Ah Jun, I invited you over today, in fact, there is something I want to trouble you, listen to your opinion. Huo Yingdong pointed at Ye Han and said, "Brother Han's recently opened Aomen Horse Racing Club, which is making money every day, and the flow of people is like weaving, what do you think of this emerging industry?"
"Me?" Yin Jun was stunned for a moment, "Where did I understand the horse racing car? If it weren't for Hanber opening this industry, I wouldn't have known that there was such a gambling project." ”
Ye Han opened his mouth and wanted to speak, Huo Yingdong raised his hand to stop him, looked straight at Yin Jun and said, "Ah Jun, of course I know that you don't understand the gambling industry, but I think you are a genius and a very thoughtful person." Now I just want to hear your and the outsider's opinion on the Carriage Race, maybe from a different angle, something new will be discovered?"
After a pause, he added, "You don't have any scruples, no matter what you say, Brother Han will only be grateful, and will not complain about you." ”
Hearing Huo Yingdong say this, Ye Han's mouth closed and he looked at Yin Jun with interest.
It seems that if you don't come up with some dry goods, don't think about passing the test today.
Yin Jun nodded, "I don't know anything about the specific gambling operations, but I have some doubts about this horse racing club. …… Is it too far from the city of Omen?"
The urban area of Omen is actually just a street, with a radius of only a few square kilometers, which is very narrow.
But there are more than 400,000 people living in it, and it can be said to be the most fertile part of the Omen.
Lisboa Casino is at the beginning of this street, the past five or six minutes' drive, is the junction with Zhuhai, can be described as the throat of traffic, very convenient.
But Taipa Island is different, it belongs to the newly reclaimed land area, and it is a 30-minute car ride to the city of Oumen, and it is not near the airport and port!
In this way, even the people of Aomen feel that the travel is relatively far, let alone the tourists from Xiangjiang and Baodao.
Ye Han was slightly stunned, then shook his head with a smile, "We have shuttle buses at the port, airport and customs. As long as you go to and from the Horse Racing Club on race day, it is free. ”
"I think 30 minutes may not seem far to you, but in many people's minds, it is actually a bit boring and long. "Let's take an example, Lisboa is next to the bustling city center of Omen, where you can watch movies, eat, stay in hotels, and go to St. Paul's. Everyone is tired of gambling, and everywhere to relax and relax, there are good facilities.
For example, we people from Xiangjiang have worked hard to take a steamer or two from Xiangjiang to Aomen, and then take half an hour to go to the Horse Racing Club...... Do you think that in the long run, everyone's enthusiasm will still be so high?
Horse racing in Hong Kong is not like this, the Happy Valley Racecourse is full of bars, restaurants, nightclubs, and high-end shopping malls, which are enough for foreign tourists to try their luck and come out to relax! Even if tourists are not interested in going to the racecourse, the desire to come here and go by is very strong. ”
Hearing Yin Jun's analysis, Ye Han's face became solemn, and even Huo Yingdong frowned.
"Then Ah Jun, how do you think we should improve it, how can we attract them over for a long time, and keep them?" Ye Han pondered for a while and asked solemnly.
"If you can make a super resort that combines hotel, entertainment, shopping and casino next to it, it should be able to complement each other and complement each other. Yin Jun said lightly, "However, this seems impossible, right? The casino license is only available to SJM Group." ”
Ye Han nodded and shook his head again, "Although SJM Group is the holder of the gambling license, they are not limited to building only one casino, they can still do several. Otherwise, how could there be only one casino in a place as big as Aomen? The government of Aomen would not have agreed!"
"It's a pity. ”
Huo Yingdong sighed at this time, "This method said by Ah Jun is equivalent to building an all-round gold cave, if it is really done, then it will definitely bring a large number of gamblers to the horse racing car, and the attraction of this resort itself is enough!"
Including Yin Jun, the three of them knew that He Hongshen would never allow Ye Han to start another business and open a casino.
Even if Ye Han has 13% of the shares in his hand, Huo Yingdong also has about 28% of the shares, which adds up to more than him, but He Hongshen's influence in the Aomen government is incomparable to the two of them combined, and you can't even have shares.
"There is no casino, just opening a resort, but the charm is a little enough. Ye Han also echoed, "Ah Dong, you really have a better vision than me, knowing that Ah Jun will have good insights, it is really a word to wake up the dreamer!"
Although Yin Jun's method did not come in handy, Ye Han glanced at Yin Jun again.
If Yin Jun hadn't pointed out this problem, Ye Han really wouldn't have noticed it, at least not when it was so prosperous.
Now that Ye Han has been reminded, then he will make some changes to the horse racing car in a targeted manner, instead of waiting for the depression to make amends.
Putting aside this question for the time being, Ye Han said hopefully: "Apart from this, do you have any other way?"
"There are also some ideas, but it's a bit unelegant. Yin Jun said, "Just a betting method of a horse racing car is still a little thin." Wouldn't it be a gimmick if you could train a group of female knights to come out and let them play in x-sense costumes? Or at the end of each game, a few or a dozen lucky winners will be drawn according to the ticket number, and they will be rewarded with watches, cameras, and hands...... Brand-name leather bags, etc., will this increase everyone's enthusiasm to come?"
Ye Han nodded again and again, and the essence of his eyes became brighter and brighter.
"Good! good!"
In the face of these ideas that are easy to come up with in the Internet era, Ye Han, who didn't know anything 40 years ago, is several times behind in his ideas and insights, and of course he feels that there is a lot to do when he hears it!
"All in all, all the means are to make it better for tourists to come to the carriage race and spend gambling. Yin Jun said, "My thoughts alone are very limited, after I go back, Uncle Han, you have a lot of brainstorming, I believe you will be able to get a lot of good solutions!"
"No, no, your thoughts alone are equivalent to the wisdom of a hundred people!" Ye Han gave Yin Jun a thumbs up and said excitedly, "Originally, your words made me feel in crisis, but now that I have listened to your advice, I think that there will be a way for the carriage racing club to get better! As long as we make it more interesting and indispensable than ordinary betting, it is enough!"
Looking at Ye Han's enlightened appearance, Yin Jun also nodded.
Ye Han, a gambling king of such an age, can still listen to the advice of a young man, such a mind and thinking are not comparable to ordinary people.
"Speaking of which, these advice and suggestions from Ah Jun should be worth a thousand gold, right?" Huo Yingdong also said amusefully at this time, "Brother Han, you will do a good job in the future, but you have to thank Ah Jun well." ”
"That's it!"
Ye Han nodded heavily, and said to Yin Jun: "Don't worry, Ah Jun, even if it doesn't work, I remember your favor!"
"Han Bo is polite, just moving his mouth, not worth mentioning. Yin Jun smiled and said modestly, "Actually, you should thank Mr. Huo, if he hadn't facilitated our dinner, then I wouldn't have been able to help you." ”
"Hahaha......"
Ye Han laughed heartily, he admired Yin Jun's modest character like this.
If it weren't for Yin Jun's net worth being even richer than him, he would have wanted to dig Yin Jun to help him.
