Reborn in America, I'm serious about making money.

Seven days after the World Cup ended, Zhang San received the settlement list calculated by the accountants: a whopping $13 billion! The extra amount was used to make up a bonus.

Zhang San glanced at it briefly and then put it aside.

This was far more than he had expected. Indeed, as the saying goes: "A man cannot get rich without unexpected wealth, and a horse cannot get fat without night grazing." However, as a high-achieving individual who loved life, Zhang San knew he couldn't indulge in a life of unearned riches. This windfall…

"1.3 billion? In US dollars? Boss, where did this money come from?"

Wang Shengyi speaks English, and if he hadn't spent a lot of time with Zhang San, he probably wouldn't have believed that the number was real. It's just too much—1.3 billion, in US dollars, in cash!?

"This is a windfall. However, I think it's best not to keep this kind of money. I plan to donate it all."

Zhang San had no intention of keeping the money; after all, holding such a large sum of money was incredibly unsettling. In Hong Kong, he owned several charitable foundations, such as the Asia Children's Charity Foundation and the Asia Medical Charity Foundation. These organizations had already helped many people and, of course, invested enormous sums of money.

"Boss, is this for real?"

Faced with a young actress who doesn't trust him, Zhang San can only resort to idioms like "FUC" (a vulgar expression).

Shortly thereafter, Zhang San's charitable foundation received $1.3 billion in donations.

The money was donated, but those gambling companies harbor deep resentment towards the guy who took their $1.3 billion.

Taking $1.3 billion from them is like cutting flesh from their bodies, causing them to earn $1.3 billion less.

Since I'm not comfortable myself, I won't make others feel good either.

Gradually, a message began circulating on the global internet that someone had raked in over 300 million US dollars during the World Cup, becoming the biggest winner of the tournament.

Moreover, the betting company also revealed the other party's strategy in detail.

The story was told in great detail, and not only that, some rumors also spread that the gambling company was upset about losing the more than 300 million dollars, which is why it released the news.

Rumors spread like wildfire and even reached the mainland. Those who lost the game cursed and wished the lucky boy well, just like people all over the world who also lost money, offering their blessings in all sorts of ways.

The news spread like wildfire, igniting a massive online uproar.

"Wow, that's amazing! I'm absolutely in awe of this technique!"

"Is he a huge football fan? How could he guess so accurately!"

"Even though he only guessed wrong once or twice, I think he's already incredibly talented!"

"If he had guessed all of them correctly, I might have suspected something was wrong, but now that he's gotten one or two wrong, it makes me think he's even more credible."

"They earn money through their own abilities, could you spare a little bit for me?"

Netizens left numerous comments, expressing amazement and admiration for the mysterious figure's ability to make guesses. Immediately, discussions and praises resounded across the internet, sparking a heated debate.

If $300 million is like this, what about $1.3 billion? Isn't that going to cause an uproar?

Zhang San smiled silently at everyone's comments online. He wasn't one to seek the limelight. Luckily, he hadn't bought from just one store; he had bought from several different stores. He should have gone to more places to buy. He had been careless.

This is a minor matter; I wonder what they would think if they knew that all the funds had been donated.

However, he still wanted to add fuel to the fire. As a prophet and a pioneer on the internet, how could he not have an online army?

The news spread like wildfire online, and a new version began to circulate. Someone was rumored to have won a staggering five billion dollars, a figure that, like a boulder thrown into a lake, created ripples. People's interest was instantly ignited, and heated discussions surged like a tide.

Chat rooms, social media platforms, and forums erupted in discussion, with people sharing their opinions and speculations. Some were skeptical of the news, questioning its veracity.

"Heh... These people are complete liars! Don't fall for their tricks! Their promise of fifty billion dollars is utter nonsense! Where would they get that much money to pay back?"

"That's right, let alone 5 billion, even that so-called 300 million is a complete scam! Who would be so foolish as to give money away to someone else for nothing?"

"Some people will stop at nothing to attract attention and gain popularity! They'll stop at nothing!"

"And then there are those who are absolutely desperate for fame; they'll use any trick or tactic imaginable!"

"Let's wait and see. I have a feeling there's a huge conspiracy behind this."

Not long after, a little-known film company announced that they were preparing to shoot a movie called "Lucky Jack".

This news was like a stone thrown into a lake, creating ripples across the internet. Netizens commented one after another, and as expected, the sentiment was overwhelming.

"I knew it, it's that Hollywood thing again."

"Hollywood's promotional methods are simply to jump on any trending topic."

"I never expected this. So that's how it is. I thought someone had actually won three hundred million dollars."

"Don't be silly, if that really happened, I'd eat shit while standing upside down."

"Someone upstairs is trying to freeload..."

In this era of rapid information dissemination, netizens' comments flooded in like a tidal wave, not out of concern for the film, but rather with a torrent of criticism.

"It's another terrible movie, I bet a dollar."

"I bet a dollar that it won't be released."

"They're treating us like fools; we're not buying tickets."

"Anyone who looks at this is a fool."

Similarly, on the other side of the sea, netizens on the mainland also expressed their opinions, sending their greetings to Hollywood's propaganda methods and their entire family.

"Do you really think we're stupid? Can't we tell the difference? It's obviously a scam."

"I won't fall for it, I won't go look."

Me too.

……

What a bunch of adorable little devils! They calmed things down with just a little trick. It's really... Zhang San exclaimed in admiration. Only Wang Shengyi knew that the 300 million figure was too low, and the 5 billion figure was too high.

Even after this wave of attention is generated, people will still remember this incident. So how can we divert everyone's attention? Of course, we can cover it up with another news story. That's Zhang San's idea.

Wang Shengyi, who was standing nearby, saw all of this and naturally knew what had happened.

This man is so bad, why do I like him so much?

"Get ready, we're going to Hong Kong the day after tomorrow. Time to divide the spoils!"
