Chapter 76

About gambling...

It's just gambling, what's the problem with that?

Anyway, it's not a loss.

If you live in Yin City, you'd be embarrassed to call yourself a Yin City resident if you said you don't gamble.

Paijiu, Mishi, Niuniu, Doudizhu, Mahjong, Wudu, Big or Small?

Damn, treating me like a joke, not falling for it... But what does Sun Xiang have to win with me? What kind of international joke is this?

"I don't gamble, it's not a good influence, but playing games is fine." He originally wanted to say that the ticket could be given to Sun Xiang, but he still had to win it. As for joining Evergrande? He had no plans for that for now...

"Playing games is good, playing games is good," Huang Jianxiang laughed heartily, clearly trying to cover up his earlier slip of the tongue. "You're all free-kick experts, so let's play a free-kick game. I've prepared three ways for you two."

Riqui, who didn't understand Chinese, could only smile on the side.

As long as it's a free-kick, I'm not afraid. Seeing Huang Jianxi laugh so smugly, was it all planned?

"Okay, due to the limited space, we can't set up a full-sized goal, so we'll play a trick shot game, a trick free-kick. No objections, right?"

Huang Jianxi looked left and right. Sun Xiang had been silent, calmly nodding. Liu Hao naturally couldn't say no, but he was a bit nervous. Trick free-kick, he had never played it before. How exactly does one play a trick free-kick?

Soon, the staff brought out a basketball hoop...

Switch to basketball? This is definitely not Liu Hao's strong suit.

"The first way is to kick the soccer ball like a basketball, but it has to go into the hoop like a basketball." Huang Jianxi grinned, proudly introducing his idea, clearly very satisfied with it.

The difficulty is really high. The penalty spot is almost the same distance from the hoop as a real basketball free-throw.

"Shall Brother Xiang go first?" Liu Hao hadn't figured out how to kick it yet, so he might as well let Sun Xiang demonstrate first. After all, he must have come prepared.

"I'll give it a try then." Sun Xiang was not at all polite, standing up and kicking the ball.

Rude... Is this guy still holding a grudge over me stealing the Nike ad and overshadowing Evergrande F6? Liu Hao crossed his arms and watched from the side.

The audience below had already started clapping enthusiastically, "Sun Xiang, Sun Xiang, Sun Xiang, come on, come on, Sun Xiang!"

There's no way around it, this is Guangzhou, and it's definitely Sun Xiang's home ground.

Sun Xiang stood confidently at the penalty spot, showing no signs of nervousness.

As a seasoned player, his mental state is definitely good. Besides, Sun Xiang has played in the Champions League before, so this kind of show is a piece of cake for him, especially since he was prepared...

He gently flicked the ball up, juggling it twice in the air. On the third touch, he suddenly increased the force, kicking the ball up high, drawing a beautiful parabola towards the hoop.

The camera zoomed in for a close-up, right in front of the hoop, as if it was about to go in?

Unfortunately, the next second, thud.

The ball hit the rim and bounced out.

Wow! The whole audience was in an uproar.

Sun Xiang's first 'shot' was tragically rejected by the hoop. If Teacher Liu Jianhong were here, he might say, "Almost in, in, in..."

But Sun Xiang's demeanor as a great player was there, and he wasn't at all anxious. This is just the first ball, there are still nine more chances, right?

For the second ball, Sun Xiang didn't kick it as hastily as the first time. He juggled the ball five times in the air, and on the sixth touch, he kicked it with force, and the ball flew into the hoop as he wished!

The audience erupted in applause, "Sun Xiang, well done, Sun Xiang, well done!"

Even though Sun Xiang is in his thirties, hearing everyone's praise finally brought a smile to his face.

Kicking in the second ball at least turned a zero into a one, reducing the pressure in his mind by half.

Not being nervous is definitely an act...

The third ball also went through five adjustments before flying towards the hoop, with the same result.

Two consecutive goals...

The cheers from the audience became even more enthusiastic, and the atmosphere suddenly heated up.

Not bad, he's got some skills... Liu Hao also cheered and clapped without holding back.

However, Sun Xiang wasn't so lucky with the fourth ball, kicking it off target.

The fifth ball hit the backboard directly.

The sixth ball hit the rim.

Two out of ten, the goal rate is already quite high, isn't it? The audience thought Sun Xiang was done.

But Sun Xiang excited the audience again.

The seventh ball went in.

The eighth and ninth balls missed the target again...

The last ball, Sun Xiang withstood the pressure and scored again.

In total, he scored four goals, a 40% goal rate, which is already quite terrifying...

Relieved, he finally smiled happily, waved to the audience, and left the stage contentedly, giving his spot to Liu Hao.

"Can I... go change into some big shorts first?" Liu Hao asked Huang Jianxiang somewhat awkwardly, "Hehe, I'm fat, I can't kick in long pants."

Hahaha, the audience below burst into laughter.

Riqui, who didn't understand, quickly explained to Riqui, and Riqui also laughed awkwardly.

There's no way around it, fat people have more issues, and they have more inconveniences during exercise.

After about five minutes in the restroom, Liu Hao finally came out.

Why does it smell like Italian red wine? When passing Riqui, Riqui seemed to smell a hint of wine, which came from Liu Hao...

Liu Hao's outfit was a bit comical, a white shirt on top, big shorts on the bottom, and black leather shoes on his feet.

Is he going to take a free-kick like this?

Yes, as long as the bottom half is comfortable, wearing leather shoes is fine.

How is he going to take it? Sun Xiang was a bit surprised, looking at Liu Hao's movements, it didn't seem like he was going to juggle the ball before shooting?

Yes, Liu Hao didn't need to do that.

He just stood about half a meter away from the ball, completely in a straight line with it.

Directly flick the ball? Huang Jianxiang and Riqui exchanged glances, both thinking the same thing...

Isn't that too difficult?

The audience's eyes also widened, seeing such a bold shot for the first time.

If this ball goes in, the goal rate would be about 10-20%?

But he's an expert, everyone knows that. If he can score so many goals like this, everyone would be speechless.

Thud! Liu Hao's first ball went off target, a meter away from the backboard...

Miss... The audience's boos followed.

Second ball, thud!

This time the ball went to the other corner.

Miss... The audience's boos followed again, using their Cantonese catchphrase, not so good, it seems.

Third ball, thud! This time it was a bit more on target, at least closer to the hoop...

But everyone's faces were already full of disdain, it seems his reputation was overrated...

Fourth ball, thud! This time it finally hit the rim, bouncing back to Liu Hao's feet.

Hmm? Riqui was the first to notice the change, is this kid playing with everyone?

Before his thoughts were confirmed, Liu Hao didn't let the ball drop, and kicked it back...

Thud! Goal!

Thud!

Thud!

Thud!

Last ball, thud thud thud thud! The ball bounced four times on the rim, then whoosh, it finally went into the hoop, falling straight down...
