Francesco Totti lost the bet: to appear in public wearing the red and black striped jersey of AC Milan, or to donate 1 million euros to the ‘Zhuoyang No. 18 Charity Fund’.
He will definitely not do the first one, even if Totti dies, he will not do it. The second clause is the only clause that he can possibly fulfill, but Totti doesn't want to do it, because 1 million is not a small amount for anyone.
A small amount, taken out of Totti's not-full wallet, is tantamount to cutting flesh.
The previous official said that because Totti does not have an agent or a management team, he really can't do anything in his personal business. As a Nike contract player, Totti's endorsement amount is far behind Ronaldinho and Henry, and Ettore.
Austria is almost at the same level. In addition, his salary of 4 million sounds very good, but in fact this 4 million is a guaranteed salary, and all income from the Roma club is covered, unlike Zhuo Yang and Kaká’s contract amount of 6 million
It’s just the basic salary, everything else has to be calculated separately.
Excluding various investments and necessary expenses, Totti's discretionary pocket money each year is actually only about 1 million. If he cashes in his bet, it means that he will have to live frugally in the next year.
'It was agreed that no matter how poor you are, your son will never be poor. I swore to Brasi that you will be responsible for being as beautiful as a flower, and I will be responsible for making money to support the family?
Besides, even if the amount of money is not taken into account, paying money means admitting defeat. Where can I put the face of the majestic King of Rome? If a person is defeated, borrowing money to draw a million treasures will never destroy his figure.
Just rely on it if you can! Such a huge cash private bet is actually illegal. If Totti and Zhuoyang had bet on who would lose and who would give the other one million, the judicial department would have brought trouble to them. But okay.
Fortunately, there was no cash transfer when Zhuoyang lost, and Totti did not pay Zhuoyang 1 million when he lost, but donated it to charity. This is not only completely legal, but also tax-free.
Totti deliberately did not answer Zhuo Yang's call, and used his own power to keep the media silent about the matter. He just wanted to wait for a period of time after people's attention and interest disappeared, and then go to Zhuo Yang to negotiate and let it go.
But he never expected that the Knights of the Round Table of Milan would come to his door so quickly.
After the roundtable reached a unified opinion, Franco Baresi communicated with Zhuo Yang by phone the next day, and then set off straight to Rome. After meeting Totti, Baresi clearly told him: This matter is now
It is no longer a private matter between you and Zhuo Yang. Our roundtable group has taken over the matter. I hope you can give an explanation.
Totti was a little confused. The round table group and Zhuo Yang alone had completely different weights. Even with his great ability, he couldn't fight against that table of people. No one in that group of people was good, especially the old gang, and the person in front of him was
Baresi is the oldest gangster.
"Franco, to be honest, if I fulfill my bet, I will lose face. You are a person who has been through this, so you should be able to understand my difficulties," Totti said.
"Yes, I can understand, I understand very much, that for us people, sometimes face is everything." Baresi seemed to mean what he said. "But now that the Roundtable has taken over the matter, if no one can explain it satisfactorily, then what will happen to us?
All face is lost. So, Franco, I hope you can understand."
Totti: "..."
The Round Table is a little wary of Totti's power, but once they decide to reach out, they will no longer be indecisive. Totti is even more afraid of the Round Table. Once these people really unite and ignore him, it will be enough to ruin his reputation. What's more,
He didn't care about this matter in the first place.
The conversation went on and on, but Baresi refused to give in. Totti said: "Franco, can't you really be accommodating?"
"Of course you can be accommodating." Baresi said: "We are all scooping rice from the same pot, and because of the kindness of the Italian national team, we will not push you too hard." Totti breathed a sigh of relief after hearing this.
Baresi continued: "I only need one word from you now, and you promise me that you will pay the money. Then we will give you a holiday, as long as you can resolve the matter satisfactorily before the first round of the new season.
We won’t make things difficult for you. Otherwise…”
"What else?"
"Otherwise, our roundtable will pay 1 million euros to Zhuo Yang's charity fund. What happens next has nothing to do with Zhuo Yang. It is a problem between you and us. I hope you will think clearly about where to go."
Totti: "..."
"I only need a promise from you today. For the rest, you need to discuss the rest with Miss Zhuo Qiu, the host of the 'Zhuoyang No. 18 Charitable Fund' and Zhuoyang's sister. As for how you can save your face from this matter, you have to
It depends on the effect of your communication with Miss Zhuo. Our roundtable group will not participate in this, but we will always monitor and pay attention."
Totti breathed a sigh of relief. He was very afraid of dealing with the Round Table Group and had a headache dealing with Zhuo Yang, but Zhuo Qiu... was just a woman. The most powerful women Totti had ever seen in his life were the club manager Miss Sensi and
His fierce wife Bracy, but these two did not make him feel embarrassed.
Therefore, Totti finally readily promised Baresi that the matter must be resolved satisfactorily before the start of the new season, otherwise he would pay 1 million to the round table. Baresi returned satisfied. Although it was only a verbal promise, he believed in himself.
Ti dares to rely on Zhuoyang's account, but he will never dare to say anything to the round table, unless he wants to renounce football and Italy.
However, Totti's prediction for Zhuo Qiu was qualitatively wrong. The eldest sister was not as polite as Zhuo Yang, nor was she considerate of status like the round table group. The eldest sister directly said to Totti: 100,000 points.
It cannot be less. This is the bottom line. I will talk to you only if you agree with the bottom line. Otherwise, you go to Baresi and Maldini. Just like that, I am very busy...
Daughter-in-law Brasi was humiliated when she went to battle in person. The eldest sister even warned the couple: Francesco Totti, icef’s Italian Goodwill Ambassador, pledged to donate but refused to pay. Now, not only unicef, but also relevant United Nations agencies have also begun
Pay attention to this matter.
The ‘Zhuoyang No. 18 Charitable Fund’ is almost equivalent to a branch of unicef, with independent accounting and independent operations, but related business and donation arrangements are subject to the guidance and supervision of unicef.
This hit Totti's weak spot. He is a person who needs to support himself, and he is most afraid of being known as a fraudster, which will completely stink him.
My sister wants everyone to understand that Zhuoyang is not just for anyone who wants to make a bet. Everyone must have a correct attitude in front of Zhuoyang, because not only can he not be bullied, but he also has a distinguished status.
Zhuo Yang was having fun during the holiday, but Totti and the people in the round table were not idle. They kept racking their brains and fighting over and under for the 1 million, which was more tiring than playing in the league.
Zhuoyang never had a direct confrontation with Totti from the beginning to the end, nor did he even talk on the phone. The round table and the eldest sister were responsible for doing the bad things. After much wrangling, everything was finally settled today.
Totti pledged 1 million, and the charity fund publicized it in the media and thanked and praised Totti for his righteous deeds. Unicef ​​also praised Totti in a high-profile manner, saying that he is a role model for stars, and expressed his heartfelt gratitude to the respected Mr. Totti on behalf of children all over the world.
of thanks.
Although he felt very distressed, he finally spent money to buy some good reputation. Totti could only hold his nose and admit it.
After much deliberation, Totti still called Zhuo Yang. "Zhuo Yang, are we still friends?"
"Of course, Franco, we have always been good friends. We have the same code and it will not affect our friendship."
"Well, if you live to my age, you will know that sometimes you really can't help yourself." Totti was still making excuses.
"Hey Franco, are you interested in taking a gamble again in the new season? You and I, let's see who scores more goals, or 1 million."
"Still betting??" Totti's head was raised. "I won't come, I won't come."
"How about this, two for one, I lost two million, but you still have one million, how about recouping the loss?" The temptation of confusion.
Totti hesitated. This business was obviously feasible. But after a moment, he said, "Oh, forget it. I won't play anymore. I'm tired. Gambling is not good."
"Kekekekeke..." Zhuo Yang smiled seductively on the other end of the phone.
Chapter completed!
