Chapter 961

Bill would never give up on Lin Feng's threat, but now that the arrow is in the pool and he will not compromise, Lin Feng will not let it go. In the end, if the quarrel continues, it will only hurt both sides. "Mr. Lin, I think we should be open and honest, and show our sincerity to each other!" Bill thought for a while, and persuaded him tactfully.

Lin Feng smiled.

"Mr. Bill, I don't want to hurt our friendship because of this matter. How about this matter, I will give you a discount. I will give you a discount. I will also allow you to pay in installments, but the payment must be 100 million US dollars. The rest We can create gods and talk about it in detail.” Lin Feng said.

Bill frowned.

"Mr. Lin, your sincerity is really insufficient. The maximum compensation we can pay is B dollars. You must know that this contract is invalid in the first place," Bill insisted.

"Hehe, Mr. Bill, USD B, can I come forward to find you in person? This is my condition. If your company refuses, it's very simple. I'll use my own eyes to earn back from the lottery!" Lin Feng threatened.

Bill was irritated again when he heard this. This is Lin Feng's ultimatum in a disguised form. If they don't fulfill the contract, I'm afraid Lin Feng will play a "bad hand" in the match between Tottenham Hotspur and Leeds United.

"Mr. Lin, please allow me to think about it. Of course, I also hope that Mr. Lin will reconsider your conditions. You know, this condition is too harsh. Bill finished speaking very sincerely, hung up the phone, and returned to the meeting In the room, discuss Lin Feng's conditions with everyone again.

Hearing the blind tone on the phone, Lin Feng smiled. He is convinced that Bill will compromise, and William Hill will compromise, as long as he lowers the conditions a little bit. Because now this matter is no longer just a matter of myself and William Hill, it has already implicated the British people. British society stabilized.

Because before that, Lin Feng received a phone call from the British Minister of Commerce, and in the phone, the British Minister of Commerce very cryptically asked Lin Feng not to do some sensational things (referring to Avril Lavigne's high-profile announcement of the bet), so as not to damage Prosperity and stability of British society.

The reason why the British Minister of Commerce said this is also because Avril Lavigne's high-profile bets in two consecutive games have aroused a gambling frenzy among the British people, and they all follow Avril Lavigne's example. Let's be honest. The British government does not object to people earning some pocket money from gaming companies, but rather appreciates it. After all, these gaming companies make so much money a year, and spit out some money occasionally can be regarded as giving back to the society. But if these fans are not betting spare money, but betting almost bankrupt, it will be bad. Especially since these fans are all betting on a game, that's even worse.

It's easy to say that you won. What if we lose? What will happen to the thousands of British football fans who spend all their money betting on football? Behind every British fan is a family. How will these families live then? Even if the government is willing to provide relief,

The money required for this is also a huge expenditure, which is equivalent to the British government buying festivals for gaming companies in disguise. Isn't this too ridiculous. But if there is no relief, so many fans who have lost money may commit illegal acts under the pressure of life, which will cause even greater harm.

Therefore, the far-sighted Minister of Commerce immediately called Lin Feng, asking him not to mislead the British people. After all, even if Avril Lavigne loses tens of millions, or even hundreds of millions, to Avril Lavigne and Lin Feng, it is just a drop in the bucket, but to ordinary people. Losing a few thousand, tens of thousands of pounds is really not a small sum.

Lin Feng was quite surprised that the Minister of Commerce personally called, but it was a good thing. Now let’s talk about the cause and effect, and naturally skip some of the detailed questions in the middle, just say that the William Hill bookmaker has defaulted on its debts, so Avril Lavigne has no choice but to ask for money through this method.

Hearing this, the British Minister of Commerce also couldn't laugh or cry, and immediately said that he would report to the Prime Minister to make a ruling, and said that if the situation was true, the British government would definitely give Avril Lavigne an explanation. But the premise is that Lin Feng is not allowed to be grandstanding like this and destroy the unity of British society.

Lin Feng smiled helplessly. Now that I have become someone who affects the unity of British society, I am really honored. But as long as the British government is willing to intervene in this matter!

Then, while Bill and the company directors were discussing the matter, the business secretary called. Ask about this in detail.

Bill was also surprised when the Minister of Commerce called in person. He did not understand how the British government could be implicated in this matter. Immediately after a brief explanation, I was stunned to hear a suggestion from the British government that the British Ministry of Commerce should come forward to coordinate the dispute between Avril Lavigne (Lin Feng) and William Hill over the gambling capital of just two dollars.

For this suggestion, William Hill naturally agrees, and proposes to hold it three days later, after the match between Tottenham and Leeds United. Bill hoped to take this opportunity to stabilize Lin Feng. After all, in the meeting led by the Ministry of Commerce, Lin Feng naturally couldn't bet heavily on this game before, otherwise he would offend the British government. After offending the British government, after a few Mofeng's title of "Commander of the British Empire Ten" is not enough, even if the talks collapse, William Hill is not afraid. Without the relationship between the boss of Leeds United and Lin Feng, the rest The team is not so afraid. At least the fans will not be so crazy, and Lin Feng does not dare to spend a lot of money to gamble.

Unfortunately, Bill is smart, and Lin Feng is not stupid.

"No, it must be held within three days, otherwise we won't talk about it," Lin Feng said forcefully.

"Mr. Lin, what does it matter if it's one day earlier or one day later?" The Minister of Commerce said with a headache.

"Mr. Cable, with all due respect, it's not a question of time, it's a question of sincerity. If William Hill wants peace talks. It has to be in three days, or I won't talk to them again. You You should also know that in this matter, they were the ones who made mistakes first, and if they want peace talks, they must show their sincerity." Lin Feng said bluntly.

British Business Secretary Cable had a headache. Finally, after discussing with Bill and Lin Feng, they decided to negotiate on Saturday morning.

Time flies, and Saturday comes in the blink of an eye.

"Don't worry, Avril, I will handle this matter, you just wait for the good news. That's right. Kenyon, you go with me today." Lin Feng smiled and patted Avril on the shoulder to reassure her. Then tell Kenyon.

At present, there is no one around Lin Feng. In terms of negotiation, Lin Feng is far inferior to Tottenham Hotspur general manager Kenyon. He is the real negotiator. With him leading the negotiation and Lin Chiling's assistance, today's negotiation is enough.

The fact is indeed as Lin Feng expected, Kenyon played a major role in today's negotiation. It can be said that no one in William Hill Company expected that Lin Feng would bring Kenyon here. They are very familiar with Kenyon. He is a ruthless general manager of Ying. His negotiating skills are well known in the world. Although he was able to help Manchester United scoop top players from all walks of life in the past, he can also help Lin Feng scoop them up from Manchester United now. Beckham. Defoe was poached from West Ham United, and he even dominated the transfer of Tottenham Hotspur in the summer, and his ability is obvious to all.

Now that this person has come, today's negotiation may be very difficult.

And it is true. Kenyon took the initiative by taking advantage of the illegality of the contract, and directly reprimanded William Hill for picking words in the contract in order to avoid compensation, finding out clauses that could make God refuse compensation, and ruining the reputation of the British gaming industry. Threats and lures, and the determination to help Lin Feng collect debts at all costs, the bluffing Minister of Commerce Cable was stunned, and Bill and others were also terrified. They couldn't help but be scared. Kenyon looked forward to if there was no compensation this time, Tottenham Hotspur would establish a winning bonus for the team at today's price. Stimulate players to keep winning. And if a team can keep winning, this is undoubtedly good news for the fans, and it is also a bright light. At that time, the fans' bets will be enough to make William Hill lose their fortune.

But in the end, Kenyon, who had always been extremely tough, suddenly changed and offered to lower the conditions, demanding that William Hill only pay 100 million US dollars in compensation, but the payment must be 100 million US dollars. The rest can be paid in installments by god-making, and paid off in the old year.

For Kenyon's condition, Minister of Commerce Cable also thinks it is reasonable. After all this matter. In his opinion, it was purely a loss for William Hill. He wanted to make a fortune, but things were not as good as expected, and he lost money in the end. Therefore, they tried their best to avoid the huge compensation of this billion dollars. That's why Lin Feng was implicated. So many things happened!

In the end, under the mediation of the Minister of Commerce, William Hill's anti-mouse weapon, and Kenyon's strength. Lin Feng couldn't bear it anymore, and finally the two sides reached a friendly agreement. The William Hill bookmaker agreed to compensate Avril Lavigne for a total of 100 million U.S. dollars in wagers. And pay B U.S. dollars, and pay off the remaining debt of 100 million U.S. dollars in the next ten years. At the same time, William Hill also proposed a condition that Lin Feng and Avril Lavigne should not publicize this compensation, so as not to affect William Hill's stock price and reputation, otherwise William Hill has the right to refuse compensation.

Lin Feng readily agreed to this. Lin Feng didn't intend to use this news to cause trouble, so it was only natural that he agreed.

"Mr. Bill, thank you, I am very satisfied that we can finally reach an agreement... Lin Feng smiled and shook hands.

"Mr. Lin, I hope you can keep your promise. Also, we'd better not meet again in the future, and I hope that Mr. Lin will stop buying lottery tickets in our company." Bill said firmly and left.

Lin Feng smiled. I am not a gambler. If it is not necessary, I will not take the risk to buy any lottery tickets.

"Okay, Avril, look, the matter is finally resolved." Lin Feng let out a long breath, the matter was finally resolved satisfactorily, but Ran started his own big plan.

The acquisition of MGM is only the first step, Lin Feng also plans to acquire another company. (To be continued), if you want to know what will happen next, please visit the muscle chapter for more information. support
