Give Me $100,000,000!

"Give me $100,000,000!"

"What!!!? Crazy! Why do you need $100m?" Even though Alex Huang is worth billions, he was still in shock when the young man proudly asked for $100 million!

"I want to start my own company."

"What kind of Startup Company needs $100m!? Do you have any business plans? Do you have any investors at the moment besides me? Do you have any background in business?" Asked the billionaire rapidly without stopping.

"I don't have any business proposal nor investor at the moment, much less any background in the business. However, I still need you to give me the $100m." He didn't panic being asked, he just gave him the true answer.

"CRAZY! Even though you have my card and I am obliged to help you. But, I am not crazy enough to lend you $100m for no reason!" After saying his piece, Alex left the private room angrily.

"You are right Alice, without proper preparation it is impossible to ask for such an amount of money. I need to change my plan." Zhang Wei was talking to Alice, but Alice didn't reply to him.

The waiter waiting outside the room was scared after looking at Alex's fuming red face. He was afraid that he would be blamed for making a VIP customer angry by his superior. Before he could do anything, the private room door was opened again.

This time Zhang Wei came out with a smile looking at the scared young waiter. He took out 1 poker chip and gave it to the young waiter. Only a few chips remained inside his pocket, previously he asked Mr.Lim to cash in his winning chips and credited them into his room account.

"Don't worry, you can go now." The waiter was surprised after getting the tip he didn't deserve to and didn't know what to say.

(Will you be shocked if someone suddenly gave you a tip worth US$25,000? @ 171,000 Yuan)

"Do you have anything to say?" Seeing the waiter still standing there shocked, Zhang Wei woke him up.

"No sir, but thank you very much for your tip sir." After regaining his confidence again, the waiter properly thanked Zhang Wei for the tip before he went for the hotel lift.

Moments later.

"You are such a tipsy young man." Suddenly an old voice sounded from Zhang Wei behind.

"Oh, Senior Wei."

"It seems like your discussion with the young billionaire failed I assumed?" Asked Mr. Sun Wei while smoking his cigar.

"Yes, we couldn't reach an agreement."

"May I know what was your request?"

"Nothing much, I just asked him to lend me a $100m."

"$100m?" Mr. Sun Wei didn't even bat his eyes saying the $100m. Zhang Wei didn't say anything, it was loud and clear he needs the $100m.

"How about I give you the $100m, you can pay me slowly in return or that entirely depends on you, just use it as what you have planned before." Mr. Sun Wei took out his gold-plated business card and gave it to Zhang Wei.

"You can contact my PA tomorrow." Explain Mr. Sun Wei.

Zhang Wei was dazed, he didn't think that Mr. Sun Wei would easily hand him his golden card and a $100m. That is US$100,000,000!!!

"You are not going to ask me why I need this $100m? And are you not afraid if I spend this money recklessly?" Asked Zhang Wei curiously.

Sun Wei smiled after listening to Zhang Wei's questions.

"For the last 30 years, I never made a wrong judgment on someone, and if you really failed in whatever you are trying to accomplish, then it is a wake-up call for me for failing to judge your character." After saying what was on his mind, Mr. Sun Wei went back to the VIP Poker Room.

Zhang Wei was still standing there, smiling. He was so impressed with Senior Wei's attitude. Even to billionaires, it is not easy to just throw around $100m to someone you just met. Much less someone like him.

Alice: A good candidate to become your company patron.

"Yes, he should be, we will deal with that later. Now I need a good night's sleep." Zhang Wei went straight for the hotel lift.

The hotel lift door opened and Zhang Wei went inside. To his surprise, the young waiter was still there inside the hotel lift.

"Chen Zhen, right? Why are you here?" Based on Zhang Wei's assumption, the waiter in front of him is more or less the same age as him.

"To be honest Mr. Zhang, I was waiting for you." Chen Zhen looked so nervous.

"Why?"

"I am sorry, I overheard your conversation with Senior Huang and Senior Wei, so here I am, I would like to work for you."

"Work for me? You have a stable job right now, with good pay right? Why do you want to work with me, when uncertainty is guaranteed?"

"If Senior Wei trusted you with his $100m, I also want to trust you, I want to gamble my future by working for you."

"Seems like you are so serious with your decision, give me your contact number and I will call you later." Zhang Wei decided to give a chance to this young waiter.

Soon, Zhang Wei reached his room, for today's mission he had accomplished everything, even though it is slightly different from his original plan. Everything went smoothly without much hick-up.

9.45 am. Sept 12, 2030. Wang Li Family Restaurant. Liquid Cash Earned So Far Over US$6m.

Zhang Wei was having his breakfast. Last night, he had a very good night's sleep. The room provided by the hotel was comfortable and excellent. Zhang Wei was still wearing his previous cheap jeans while changing the others.

If someone says this young man is a new millionaire with over $6m in cash, they won't believe it based on his appearance. How come a millionaire wearing cheap jeans, a t-shirt, and an old jacket? No one is going to believe it.

While Zhang Wei was immersed with his tasty noodle soup which is not available in his previous life, suddenly a female sat in front of him. Zhang Wei didn't even look at the female, he knew exactly who she was.

"Good morning, have you had your breakfast?" Zhang Wei started the conversation lightly.

"Yes, I had my breakfast earlier." The female was looking attentively at Zhang Wei.

"Good morning young lady, what would you like for breakfast today?" Suddenly an old female voice was asking.

"Good morning Aunty Li, just a cup of coffee. I had my breakfast earlier." With a smile, Ms. Lim respectfully greeted Madam Li.

After a few light words between them, Madam Li went back to his station.

"I know you have a lot of questions, go ahead and ask whatever you want." Said Zhang Wei casually after finishing his noodle soup.

"What is your name?"

"Zhang Wei."

"How old are you?"

"21."

"Where are you from?"

"I am from Canada." Zhang Wei plainly lied here but Ms. Lim didn't detect any lie from him.

"Are you rich?"

"No and yes." Zhang Wei's answers made Ms. Lim confused.

"What? No Yes?

"Yesterday, I had around 200 Yuan. Today, I have more than $6m. So, you tell me if I am rich or not?"

"Are you telling me in just one night you earned over $6m? What did you do? Did you rob the bank?" Ms. Lim didn't believe it. What kinds of jobs pay you $6m in just one night?

"Last night, I played poker with a few millionaires and I won big, unbelievable right?" Explained Zhang Wei smiling.

Even though Ms. Lim didn't want to believe it, however, she knew this is not entirely impossible in high-stakes poker. She just doesn't know what kind of skill or luck accompanies the young man in front of her.

"Okay, what do you want from me? And why do you want me to work for you?"

"My reasons are very simple, first, you are under-appreciated. With your talent, you should be working with a more challenging job and getting better pay. Secondly, this is what I like about you the most, you are trustworthy. Talent can be a groom, but trust cannot. That's why I want you to work for me. Consider the cash I gave you last night as your advance 1st-month salary."

"I haven't said I agree to work for you!" Ms. Lim was seriously looking at Zhang Wei.

"Doesn't matter, eventually you will work for me, to prove my words, take this. Read and try to understand your task. This will be your second task from me, however, you can only open this envelope 2 days from now." Casually, Zhang Wei instructed Ms. Lim, ignoring her protest.

"I said I haven't agreed to anything!" Ms. Lim was still in her lying protest mode. Anybody offered 10 times of their current salary will surely jump ship without thinking too much.

Zhang Wei ignored her protest.

"Wait what? You said the second job, what is my first job? I haven't done anything for you." Ms. Lim was asking herself if she did a task for him previously. However, nothing came up.

"Of course you haven't done anything for me, so your first job is very easy nevertheless breathtaking." Zhang Wei was goading Ms. Lim.

"What?" The words easy and breathtaking baited her.

"Easy, do you know the 24 hours grocery store next to that hotel?" Zhang Wei was pointing to the tall and massive building, it is actually a 4 Stars Hotel.

"Yes, I do." Ms. Lim was looking at the hotel directly, and she knew there was only one 24 hours store beside the hotel. In fact, she spends her cash buying groceries from the store.

"Go there now and buy all the available lottery tickets, that is your first job." Instructed Zhang Wei.

Ms. Lim almost rolled her eyes. What is the point of buying so many lottery tickets if you can't win? If simply buying so many tickets will guarantee you a lottery win, a lot of people will become rich.

"Why?" Ms. Lim did not think that this is a challenging job, in fact, this is a plain stupid job.

"Just do it, you will get your answer soon." Zhang Wei casually talked to Ms. Lim without answering her question. After that, Zhang Wei left $50 on the table and left.

Ms. Lim still sat there, dazed and confused. This was the second time she was left alone without getting her answer from the same person.

After saying goodbye to Aunty Li, Ms. Lim went to the grocery store instructed by Zhang Wei. Even though she was still in her protest mood, nevertheless, she still did it.

Last night, she applied for 2 days off emergency leave from her boss. Her boss was quite unhappy with her sudden request. However, her boss still gave her permission for 2 days' leave with a stern warning.

She wanted to argue with her boss but decided not to. She hasn't taken any personal leave for the whole year, and the boss still gave her a stern warning. What kind of boss doesn't appreciate her hard work for the company in the last 3 years?

She might as well jump into the ocean with Zhang Wei. If the job is really as good as what Zhang Wei had offered her, she will jump ship.

Inside the grocery store.

Ms. Lim was so familiar with this store, she had been here so many times. At the counter, a male cashier was looking pervertedly at her.

"Hello Ms. Lim, how may I help you today?" The average looking cashier with a big smile was asking.

This cashier has been trying to hit on her for many months. However, she never gives a damn about this guy. Her intuition told her that this guy was up to something bad.

"I just want to buy the lottery tickets." She didn't smile at all. If someone can see her face at the moment, he/she will know that this lady has no interest at all in being friendly with the male cashier.

"Oh? I never knew that you are also a lottery player. What changed your mind?" The cashier tried to create a conversation with Ms. Lim. However, he received a cold reply.

"Nothing. I am buying for someone, just give me the tickets."

"These are the only tickets left, six of them." The male cashier was still smiling after receiving the cold reply.

"I will buy all of them." After paying 60 Yuan for the lottery tickets, she just left without saying any words.

The male cashier didn't show any angry or sad expression on his face. He just stood there smiling, anyone seeing his smiles at the moment will be able to see his evil smile.

"Just you wait, one day you will be mine. The harder it gets, the more satisfying it is!" Murmured the male cashier. If someone was able to see his quick-expression at this moment, he/she would be able to know that this cashier truly likes a demon reincarnation.

"Hi miss, how may I help you?" When another young female suddenly came to his counter, he quickly changed his expression into an innocent one again.

After leaving the store, Ms. Lim felt a bit relaxed. She had an eerie feeling every time the male cashier gave her an evil smile. She wanted to buy her groceries from another store, however, the other store will take her over 30 minutes walking from her apartment. Thus, this is the only store available within her walking distance.

She looked at the tickets, feeling a bit weird, being paid 100,000 Yuan just to buy a few lottery tickets! Why do so many people waste their hard-earned money for a winning probability of less than 0.000002%? This is a scam scheme. Scamming on a national level. People were burning their hard-earned money. Even if a billionaire bought all the tickets, he will still end up losing massively.

"I couldn't get it, why buy something you couldn't win? Only on sentiment, you might win?" She kept the tickets inside one of her pockets.

8:00 PM. Inside Ms. Lim Small Apartment.

Sitting in front of her 40 inches Qled TV, Ms. Lim was watching the lottery TV channel. End of every month, the draw numbers will be held live. During this time, most of the ticket holders will be glued to the TV screen waiting to see if their bought ticket hit the lottery numbers.

The winning lottery for this month will be the biggest in China History, totaling 100m Yuan. The previous biggest lottery winner was won by a farmer totaling 79m Yuan, and that was almost 2 years ago. Whoever wins the current massive lottery, will have a life-changing moment.

After so many advertisements and talks, the first number will be drawn by a famous male singer on the stage. There will be 12 numbers to be drawn, and the male singer was instructed to draw 2 times. The balls with a single number each were spinning inside the transparent round container, and the male singer took 2 white balls with the numbers 0 and 6 each.

Since the largest number for this lottery was set at 6/58 (6 pairs of a number, highest number 58), the first pair of lottery numbers was 06. There were another 5 pairs of numbers to be drawn. Ms. Lim looked at her 6 lottery tickets and was shocked, 3 tickets started with 06 numbers, while the others did not.

At this moment 99% of the ticket holders will be eliminated since there were only slightly over 3000 tickets started with 06 among the tickets sold.

Ms. Lim was still in shock because she was among the last less than 1% with a positive probability of winning the biggest lottery in China history. Previously, even though she didn't believe in the lottery, she did research on the internet about lottery winning probability. Thus, she has a bit of understanding of how difficult it was to get the first correct number. With 3 tickets starting with 06, she almost can't believe it.

The next 4 pairs of a number will be drawn by 4 lucky people who attended the live lottery drawing. Meanwhile, the last pair of numbers will be drawn by the lottery company representative.

Soon, the second pair of lottery numbers will be drawn by a 50 years old lady.
