The world begins with Hong Kong movies

Chapter 384 Boss, we're the ones on the same side! (Seeking monthly votes)
The Hong Kong Island team was overjoyed, celebrating their victory and advancement to the round of 16.

But secretly, many people harbor deep resentment and hatred towards them.

Colombia is alright; they were simply outmatched on the field, which is understandable given their lack of skill and poor performance.
Having lost all three battles, they were too ashamed to even make excuses.

However, European and American gambling companies, as well as gambling dens in Australia, are extremely annoyed.

This time, they suffered considerable losses in this match.

Wu Feng showed no mercy to European and American online gambling companies.

Since they dare to secretly engage in underhanded tactics, they should be prepared to suffer losses.

As for the traffic jams in Macau, those who were caught in the crossfire can only accept their bad luck.

I didn't see three blocked boats, and the betting odds weren't even open?
He directly contacted a Chinatown community in the United States with whom he had a good relationship, offering them an opportunity that was sure to make a lot of money.

Meanwhile, information about this was also revealed by European communities with which they have established considerable relationships.

This included contacting Chiang Tin-sang's personal connections, as well as the networks of Hung Hing and Tung Sing in the Netherlands and Europe.

Anyway, once the information has been delivered, how much they can invest is not really Wu Feng's concern.

The result was completely unexpected.

The community organizations that were notified and learned about the situation invested a considerable amount of money.

They also encouraged many local Chinese to place bets, resulting in a huge amount of money being invested, a result that Wu Feng had not anticipated.

While European and American betting companies did adjust the odds temporarily, they couldn't have made such drastic changes.

At the beginning, the odds for Hong Kong Island team were second among the 24 teams, but it is impossible for the two games to not even reach a 1-1 draw.

As a result, they lost money in this game.

The traffic jams on the island of Australia are even worse.

Most residents of Hong Kong Island participate in betting, and the amount of money involved is no joke; it's truly astonishing.

In particular, the community groups on Hong Kong Island have all been quite active.

Hung Hing's entire team placed bets, and Tung Sing and He's winning streak was roughly the same.

Although Shuifang and Lianhe have invested money, their level of trust is clearly still insufficient.

With betting from mainland China and Macau, the casinos that accepted bets almost lost everything.

And so it was; the Hong Kong Island team celebrated their victory and advancement to the round of 16 with great joy, while the citizens of Hong Kong Island happily enjoyed the small windfall they had made.

At this point, the momentum of the Hong Kong Island team and Wu Feng had reached an astonishing level.

Some enthusiastic fans even boldly proclaimed: "Let's knock out the next opponent, the host team, and Hong Kong Island will advance to the quarterfinals!"
Television programs and newspapers have already stated that the best result ever achieved by an Asian team in the World Cup was North Korea's quarterfinal appearance.

If the Hong Kong Island team can advance to the quarterfinals, they will be able to break the historical record.

Of course, calm fans and football commentators are not optimistic about Hong Kong Island's upcoming matches.

Italy is already a world-class team, and as the host country, they have a significant home advantage.

Most importantly, their chain defense, which they displayed in the group stage, was really sharp. It's hard to say whether Hong Kong's rough offensive tactics can break through their tight chain defense system.

"Martial arts student, are you confident you can take it a step further?"

At the temporary hotel where the Hong Kong team was staying in Italy, Huo Daheng, who had come along, asked with a chuckle, "Impossible!"

Wu Feng shook his head and said directly, "The main players' physical strength has been almost exhausted, and the substitutes cannot make up for the gap in their strength!"

"Then play well!"

Huo Daheng knew what was going on, but his expression remained relaxed and at ease.

The Hong Kong Island team's performance was already excellent. Even if they were eliminated in the round of 16, it would still be a huge breakthrough and an honor. As the president of the Football Association, he naturally didn't need to feel any psychological burden.

In fact, the match against Italy was quite frustrating.

The power of the chain method is still quite considerable.

The key issue is that, after three consecutive major matches, the Hong Kong Island team's key players are exhausted and can no longer run.

In the first half, he ran desperately, constantly stretching and attacking the Italian defense, allowing Wu Feng to seize two opportunities that weren't really chances and directly unleash two very powerful long-range shots.

Unfortunately, the Italian team was stronger and ultimately eliminated the Hong Kong Island team with a score of 4-2.

There was nothing they could do; the Hong Kong Island team was practically exhausted in the second half.

Under such circumstances, Wu Feng was still able to score two goals, demonstrating an unexpected level of strength.

After the match ended, all the fans and spectators felt sorry for the Hong Kong Island team.

The score of 4 to 2 doesn't really reflect the course of the game.

It was clear that the Hong Kong Island team players' stamina was really running out in the second half.

Even so, Wu Feng still managed to score two goals in the first half.

With twelve goals in four matches, he is undoubtedly the top scorer in this World Cup, and the gap between him and the strikers from other countries is too large.

Wu Feng and his teammates didn't seem discouraged at all!
In fact, they had anticipated this situation before the competition started, as they were well aware of their own lack of physical strength.

This time, it just benefited the host country's foolish team.

After resting for a night, Wu Feng and his teammates decided not to stay in Italy and instead took a flight back to Hong Kong Island.

It must be said that the paparazzi in Hong Kong are indeed quite capable; they quickly obtained the information and even figured out the specific details of the flight.

As a result, when Wu Feng and his entourage tried to leave the airport quietly, they were blocked by more than a hundred reporters.

The scene was extremely lively, attracting many passengers from other trains who quietly came over to watch the excitement.

Then, upon seeing that it was the entire Hong Kong Island team, who had just shone brightly in the World Cup, I was immediately filled with excitement and exhilaration.

Even the most persistent paparazzi didn't mention yesterday's loss to the host country; they all focused on other gossip.

This situation allowed the Hong Kong Island team players to completely relax, as they were genuinely worried that the paparazzi would bring up sensitive topics.

Little did they know that with Huo Daheng, who was returning on the same flight, and Wu Feng in charge, none of the paparazzi who came to the airport to ambush people and dig up the latest news dared to act recklessly.

The police can't deal with them, but gang thugs can.

By the time other media reporters and TV crews arrived in a hurry, the brief interview at the airport entrance had already ended, much to the frustration of these self-proclaimed journalists from reputable media outlets.

In particular, reporters from ATV and Mong Kok News were full of resentment towards the big boss, Wu Feng. Such a good opportunity had been given to those low-class paparazzi newspapers, while their own people couldn't even get a sip of the good stuff.
