    After bidding farewell to Cheng Long, the four of them continued to wander the streets of Hong Kong.  Li Zhen asked: "Cheng Yuan, why did senior Cheng Long invite you?" Although she and Cheng Yuli sat aside and listened for a long time, they barely understood a word.  Zhang Chengyuan said calmly: "I was just invited to audition for a movie role, Hollywood's "Rush Hour 3"." Cheng Yuli said: "Why should I invite you? You don't know him?" Xiao Jingshu said with a smile: "This  I know that he must have seen his brother's previous rescues and knew that his brother was very good at martial arts and handsome, so he invited him to audition for such an amazing person. Everyone who met him wanted to know him.  !" Zhang Chengyuan said: "Except for the last sentence, everything else is quite right." After hearing this, Li Zhen and Cheng Yuli felt that today's facts were too dramatic.  Little Crystal added: "Brother, I saw that big-nosed uncle just now, Jackie Chan, in the movie. He seems to be the general who acted with Kim Hee Sun in "The Myth", but he looks much older than in the movie." Zhang Chengyuan  He patted her head and taught her a lesson: "You can't be so rude. He is a really great star, much better than my brother!" Little Crystal said: "That's because he is many years older than you. I believe my brother is here."  When he reaches that age, he will definitely be much better than him. "In her mind, Zhang Chengyuan is definitely the most capable person in the world, and no one can compare with him, including her parents.  Cheng Youli asked: "Cheng Yuan, did you agree to his invitation?" Zhang Chengyuan said: "Yes, having the opportunity to participate in a Hollywood movie is indeed, as he said, a very rare experience." He already acted very calmly.  Now, another Korean star has already shouted excitedly. For Korean artists, Hollywood is definitely a holy land. Those who have the ability want to try it out, but most people don¡¯t have this opportunity.  .  Li Zhen said: "You haven't read the script yet?" She knew Zhang Chengyuan's habit of accepting roles. He had to read the script first and feel satisfied before he would consider taking the role.  Zhang Chengyuan smiled and said: "Sister Zhen'er, this is not a Korean TV series that allows me to be picky. In front of Hollywood movies and senior Cheng Long, I am just a newcomer. It would be great to have the opportunity. After I become famous  , are qualified to choose scripts." Xiao Jingshu said: "So, is my brother going to enter Hollywood and become a Hollywood star?" Zhang Chengyuan said: "How can it be so easy for an Oriental to become a Hollywood star?  !" He pondered for a while, looked at Li Zhen and Cheng Yuli, and said: "And I value the Asian market, especially the Chinese market, more than becoming a Hollywood star, and senior Cheng Long can give me a lot in this regard.  Help, this is the real reason why I made good friends with him and accepted the invitation without reading the script. "Sometimes Zhang Chengyuan regrets that he was not reincarnated as a Chinese in this life. If he were a Chinese, he would not have to worry about the Chinese market now.  However, in that case, he would not be able to meet so many beautiful and kind sisters, and he would definitely regret it even more.  ¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­ At 7 o¡¯clock in the evening, Zhang Chengyuan and others came to Wan Chai Happy Valley Racecourse. Today is Wednesday, and there are several horse racing races here tonight.  The reason why Zhang Chengyuan and others came here was because of Cheng Long's invitation.  During lunch, Cheng Long accidentally asked: "What impressed you most about Hong Kong, and what are you most curious about?" Zhang Chengyuan replied: "The most impressive thing about Hong Kong is the night view of Victoria Harbor, and what is the most curious about?  It¡¯s Hong Kong¡¯s horse racing, and I heard the level is very high. ¡°Actually, Hong Kong¡¯s horse racing should be more famous than horse racing, but Zhang Chengyuan doesn¡¯t know much about it.  After hearing this, Cheng Long laughed and said: "There are several horse races at Happy Valley Racecourse tonight. I invite you to go and see them." Naturally, Zhang Chengyuan would not refuse.  When they arrived at the entrance of the racecourse, before Zhang Chengyuan could call Cheng Long, they saw that the middle-aged man who had been following Cheng Long at noon had already walked up to them. After saying a few polite words to them, he took Zhang Chengyuan and his party with him.  We arrived at a luxuriously decorated private room on the ninth floor of the racecourse.  Cheng Long was already sitting there waiting for them.  After seeing the ceremony, everyone sat down. Cheng Long exchanged greetings with Li Zhen, Cheng Youli, and Xiao Shuijing, and then asked Zhang Chengyuan: "Chengyuan, what do you think after seeing this racecourse now?" Zhang Chengyuan looked at it.  The tenth-floor viewing platform of the entire racecourse was almost densely packed with people, and everyone looked excited and full of expectations. They said: "There are many people here and it is very lively! It seems that Hong Kong people love horse racing very much."   Cheng Long shook his head and smiled: "It seems that Cheng Yuan, you only know a little about Hong Kong Marseille. Let me tell you, the reason why Hong Kong people are so interested in this game, and many people have even reached a crazy point, is not because they all like it.  Horse racing, but I want to get rich overnight by betting on horses? "It seems a bit impossible to get rich by betting on horses?" Cheng Long sighed: "It is indeed a fantasy, but the probability is extremely low.  , but there are still very few people who have achieved this, and it is precisely because some people have achieved it that it stimulates many lucky people to come here to fight. I am not afraid of your laughter. I was a frequent visitor here for a period of time when I was young.¡±  With his current status and achievements, he is no longer taboo about talking about some of the ridiculous things he did when he was young and frivolous, and Zhang Chengyuan feels that he is very free and honest.  At this time, Little Crystal suddenly whispered in Zhang Chengyuan's ear: "Brother, I also want to play horse betting. It should be very interesting." Among the three girls, she was the only one who could speak Chinese well, and she could understand it without even guessing.  Zhang Chengyuan and Cheng Long were bored sitting around, so they wanted to find something to do.  Although Zhang Chengyuan knew that Xiao Jingming was not interested in horse racing, but just curious, he did not want her to be interested in it at such a young age, and he was also afraid that she would become addicted to gambling, so he scolded her unceremoniously: "Here  "Stay here, stop talking nonsense!" Xiao Jingshuang snorted dissatisfiedly, turned around and hugged Cheng Yuli, and complained to her and Li Zhen in a low voice. Li Zhen and Cheng Yuli hurriedly comforted them, but they did not persuade Zhang Chengyuan to allow it.  Little Crystal played for a while. After all, betting on horse racing is not a healthy game, and if there are outsiders around at this time, they will not go against Zhang Chengyuan's decision.  Cheng Long smiled and said: "It's not a big deal to gamble for fun, but children really shouldn't play this. Otherwise, Chengyuan, you can play for your sister." With his pretty good Korean skills, he can naturally  I understand why Xiao Jingshuang was scolded by Zhang Chengyuan.  Zhang Chengyuan glanced at Xiao Jingshu, who was still unhappy, and felt a little distressed, then nodded and said: "Okay, I'll listen to you. It's just that I don't know anything about horse racing, so I asked Brother Cheng Long to teach me the tricks." Cheng Long shook his head and smiled.  : "How do I know the secret? Otherwise, I would have already developed, and I wouldn't have to work so hard on filming? I will tell you some simple rules, and you can just place your bets based on your feelings and see what your luck is tonight."  At this moment, we talked about several ways of playing, such as single win, position, parlay, position Q, trifecta, triple T, and the corresponding rough odds.  While Cheng Long was explaining, the first game was about to begin. First, the horses would appear. Before each game, all the horses would go to the exhibition field and walk two laps to be inspected by the punters, so that the punters could first  Observe the condition of the horse and jockey before placing your bet.  However, there are not many gamblers who do this, because there are very few gamblers who really understand horses, and most gamblers have already placed bets and bought horse tickets before.  They seem to be betting on horses, but in fact most of them are just betting on luck.  And those gamblers who place bets at the last moment, even if they are experienced and know the horses very well, may not be able to select the horse that will get a high ranking. Most of the time, it is just a superfluous move, and it is better to bet on luck.  After listening to Cheng Long's explanation, Zhang Chengyuan chose a horse betting method in his mind - "Position Q". This method requires you to buy at least two horses that are among the top three in order to pay out, or in other words, get bonuses, because  The probability of guessing in this way is not high, so the odds are relatively high. Of course, if an unpopular horse wins the game, the odds will be much higher, even ten or dozens of times higher.  Compared with most people who gamble on luck, Zhang Chengyuan believed in his own vision and intuition. When the horses and jockeys came out to show off, Zhang Chengyuan's eyes were closely watching the horses and jockeys, and his soul automatically started to operate at a very fast speed.  Assessing the spirit of the man and the horse, in order to assess their status more clearly and intuitively, he did not look at the big screen in the private room, but looked directly at the horse and the jockey. With his eyesight, he could see the distance of several hundred meters.  Distance had no effect on his observations.  Moreover, he can roughly calculate the luck of each jockey today. This is not a mysterious thing. He just calculates the fortune based on the Taoist classic Zhouyi, which is commonly known as fortune telling. However, earthly fortune tellers rely on tortoise shells and copper coins.  , wooden sticks and other tools, but Zhang Chengyuan only used more advanced mental arithmetic, coupled with the powerful power of the soul, if he were to be a fortune teller, he would definitely be much smarter than others.  Of course, this calculation method cannot guarantee a 100% success rate, nor can it measure things that are too complicated or too long-term, but it should be more than enough for tonight's horse betting.  To be on the safe side, Zhang Chengyuan did not actually place a bet on the first horse race, but placed a bet in his mind, choosing two horses that he was optimistic about, and also made ranking predictions for other horses.  Cheng Long thought he was still familiar with the rules and choosing his favorite gameplay, so he didn¡¯t rush him and placed his own bet, letting everyone around himWent to buy horse racing tickets for him.  When the results of the first game came out, Cheng Long was lucky enough to buy a one-way ticket, but he only made more than 100 yuan. It turned out that he only bought a 100-yuan lottery ticket, and this time he won only 100 yuan.  The rate is not high either, only 2.2.  But he didn't feel sorry at all, he was just having fun.  And Zhang Chengyuan also smiled. The two horses he had chosen in his mind both entered the top three, one ranked first and the other ranked third. Moreover, the rankings of the other horses were roughly as he expected, which proved that  His horse betting method is quite effective.  Starting from the second horse racing, Zhang Chengyuan officially placed his bets. Of course, he did not need to go and buy horse racing tickets in person. This kind of errand work was naturally handled by Cheng Long's entourage.  What happened next was a bit shocking. Zhang Chengyuan bought the Q position six times in a row, but won five of them. The probability was so high that no one could believe it. Zhang Chengyuan bet 10,000 Hong Kong dollars every time and won.  Five times, I won a total of about 230,000 yuan. After deducting the 10,000 yuan that I lost, I made a net profit of 220,000 yuan. Little Crystal was so happy that she couldn't open her mouth from ear to ear.  It's not that she thinks 220,000 Hong Kong dollars is a lot of money, but it feels really good to always win money, especially during horse racing, when she shouts loudly about the horse chosen by Zhang Chengyuan, and she gets her wish almost every time.  The excitement of getting what she wanted kept her coming back, but every time after shouting, she would be glared at and slapped on the head by Zhang Chengyuan.  Of course, this kind of punishment was like drizzle to her, and it couldn't dampen her excitement and enthusiasm at all.  Cheng Long smiled and said: "Your fortune tonight is really amazing, but why don't you place more bets?" Zhang Chengyuan said: "After all, I didn't earn it through work, so I always feel a little unreliable! So I made a small profit.  It¡¯s just enough to cover the cost of traveling to Hong Kong.¡± Cheng Long said with appreciation, ¡°It¡¯s really rare for you to have such a clear understanding at such a young age!¡± He patted Zhang Chengyuan on the back and said, ¡°Let¡¯s go.  Marseille is over, I¡¯ll treat you to a supper, and thanks to you, I¡¯ll make a small profit tonight.¡± When Zhang Chengyuan was placing his bets, Cheng Long also bought some with Zhang Chengyuan. Originally, he just wanted to express his gratitude to Zhang Chengyuan.  The goodwill of advancing and retreating together, but he didn't expect to earn another hundred thousand. Although a hundred thousand is not important to him, it is always a happy thing to win money, and through betting on horse racing, he  I further realized that Zhang Chengyuan was a man who knew how to advance and retreat, and he was very lucky. It seemed that he would have a very promising future, and there was a need to make further friendships, so he planned to invite the four of Zhang Chengyuan to dinner again.
