Chapter 1289

Nicky Thompson is not Tim haggis. Although she said that she was in Los Angeles, she couldn't set out on the phone like Tim haggis. She could drive for a few hours and come here in the early morning. In addition, to meet Xiao Yao's promise, Nicky Thompson needed time to contact the right reporter through Matt Dino, so he made an appointment with Xiao Yao on the phone to meet at Caesar Palace Hotel the next afternoon.

The next morning, Xiao Yao got up as usual, but he didn't go to the casino again. Through yesterday's experience, Xiao Yao knows that most of the casinos themselves should not be able to go to the blackjack table, so he no longer wastes time and energy, just like yesterday's casinos.

After breakfast, Xiao Yao went out to visit some scenic spots in Las Vegas. After returning to the hotel at noon, he didn't go out again, waiting for Nicky Thompson and the reporter.

In the afternoon, Xiao Yao received a phone call from Nicky Thompson. The notice was about to arrive. Xiao Yao made a direct appointment to meet in the coffee shop of the hotel.

Hang up the phone, Xiao Yao will go to the hotel coffee shop to wait, not long after, Nicky Thompson and his party arrived.

There were three people in Nicky Thompson's party. The agent Amy Hatton didn't come with her. Besides her, there were two young white men Xiao Yao didn't know. In fact, they don't know each other at all. Although Xiao Yao has never seen a real person, he has seen the photos before and knows who it is. Therefore, Xiao Yao also immediately determined what identities they were.

Coffee shop is a public place, Xiao Yao saw Nicky Thompson enter the door, also don't have to go all the way up to meet. After Nicky Thompson came in, he swept through the coffee shop and saw Xiao Yao. When he took them to Xiao Yao's table, Xiao Yao politely stood up and said hello.

After greeting Xiao Yao, Nicky Thompson also introduced the two people around him to Xiao Yao: "this is Bob snow, a reporter for the entertainment edition of the Los Angeles Times, and this is Matt Dino, my friend. I think you should know him!"

Matt Dino is also very interested in Xiao Yao, but he was sneaking around behind his back before, and it's not easy for him to rush out to meet Xiao Yao. Later, Xiao Yao learned that Nicky Thompson and Matt Dino were behind the scenes. When he found Nicky Thompson, Matt Dino had left Las Vegas with the Chinese American private detective for something. Nicky Thompson helped Xiao Yao to find a reporter through Matt Dino. Matt Dino came with him when Nicky Thompson said he would go with the reporter to see Xiao Yao.

"Hello, Mr. Snow!" Xiao Yao smiles, and Bob snow shakes hands. Then he squints at Matt Dino, hands clasping, pressing the knuckles of his fingers and saying, "Matt Dino?"

Looking at Xiao Yao's eyes and hearing the crackling sound, Matt Dino suddenly felt a sense of danger. He immediately put forward his hands and said with a smile, "Yang, I do all those things to help Nicky. I heard that there is no problem between you and Nicky now."

Matt Dino knew that Xiao Yao had even been a professional fighter like tiger, and he was definitely not an opponent in fighting. Dino's family is rich and powerful in the United States, but if they are rich, they are not poor. As for power, their family is more open-minded in the United States, and their influence in China is relatively limited. He is a Chinese. Although he is a star, he doesn't pay much attention to the American market. If Xiao Yao really doesn't like beating himself, and then runs back to China, he doesn't even have a chance to revenge, so he can only be beaten in vain. So Matt Dino immediately made a wise choice.

"Ha Nicky Thompson looked at Matt Dino with a smile and said, "Matt, this is the first time I've seen you do this!"

"It's not because of you, Nicky?" Matt Dino looks discontentedly at Nicky Thompson.

"Well, I'll help you!" Nicky Thompson turned to Xiao Yao with a smile and said, "Yang, his father is the boss of a big business group. He's very powerful in America! You'd better leave him alone

"Is it?" Xiao Yao laughed, "I like beating the rich second generation best! I've beaten the rich second generation in China, but I haven't beaten the rich second generation in the United States! "

"Nikki, you're not helping!" Cried Matt Dino, jumping.

"What are you doing?" Bob snow asked with a confused face.

Although he was invited by Matt Dino, he didn't know what they had done before.

"No, it's just a joke!" Xiao Yao didn't want to play any more. He made a please sign to Bob snow, "Mr. Snow, please sit down!"

"Well, I'll scare you!" Nicky Thompson smiles, pats Matt Dino and sits down.

"You two conspire to fool me?" Matt Dino sat down and asked.

"There's no collusion, just cooperation!" Nicky Thompson said with a smile, "I know young won't really hit you on such an occasion. He just wants to scare you. Just cooperate!"

"What happened between you that I didn't know?" Matt Dino said strangely.

Nicky Thompson didn't want to answer. Just at this time, a waiter saw them sit down and took the initiative to come over with the menu and ask them to order. Nicky Thompson ignored the problem."Let's get down to business!" The three people ordered the order. After the waiter left, Xiao Yao said, "Mr. Snow, did Nicky say what he asked you to do?"

"I did!" Bob snow nodded with a smile. "But it's not Miss Thompson, it's Mr. Dino. He said that if I were to report a news about you, it might need to be hyped to make this news a hot spot. Mr. Dino is responsible for the hype. I'm only responsible for your news. Some time ago, you attended the billboard award ceremony, which has a certain degree of popularity. This award ceremony will soon be broadcast on ABC, so it is not difficult for the newspaper to publish your news. It's not very difficult for me. "

"Are you going to help me hype?" Xiao Yao looks at Matt Dino.

"Since you want the media to report on you, of course you want more people to know about you." Matt Dino shrugged, "the reporters have found it for you, so I'll help you to fire it in the back. It's as compensation for our previous hype about you going to the casino and hiring people to trouble you."

"I'm very kind," Xiao Yao said with a smile, "but I don't think you need to do anything about it anymore!"

"What do you mean?" Asked Matt Dino.

"I mean," Xiao Yao said, "even if you don't do anything, this news will become a hot news and a very hot topic after it comes out, so you don't have to waste resources."

"You're so confident?" Matt Dino said, "although you've done well at the Billboard Awards ceremony before, it's been reported in the media. After all, you are Chinese. Unless you have another airport hijacking or fashion week robbery or kidnapping, I can't think of anything about you that will become a hot news in the United States. "

"Mr. Xiao, what's the news you're going to tell me?" Bob snow also asked curiously.

"Didn't Nicky tell you?" Xiao Yao asked.

"No!" They shake their heads together and look at Nicky Thompson.

"No, I just told Matt that you need reporters to report on you." Nicky Thompson said, "but even if I know that the news you want to break is about the reason why you went to the casino, I don't know what the reason is. It must be the news. Are you undercover for the police, going to the casinos and looking for criminals? "

"Big star helps police undercover?" Matt Dino looked at Nicky Thompson in surprise and said, "because he has an FBI agent friend? You have imagination

Xiao Yao was also shocked by Nicky Thompson's brain hole, then shook his head and said, "of course not!"

"As for what it is, you can go to the casino with me and watch and listen to it for yourself." Xiao Yaodao.

"May I go now?" Nikki Thompson said immediately.

The other two couldn't wait.

"Of course!" Xiao Yao nodded.

"Which one to go to?" Asked Matt Dino.

"Just go to the casino in this hotel!" Xiao Yao thought about it and said.

"OK, let's go!"

Matt Dino raised his hand and called for the bill, then, without waiting for the waiter to come, he took out some large bills and put them on the table to ask some people to get up.

Xiao Yao doesn't fight with Matt Dino either. He stands up and leaves the coffee shop with several people and goes to the casino downstairs.

After entering the casino, Xiao Yao found that no staff came forward on his own initiative and went to the chip exchange as usual to exchange chips.

"Are we going to change chips, too?" Nicky Thompson asked.

"Whatever!" Xiao Yao said, "but if you want to change, I suggest you don't change too much."

As a result, neither Bob snow nor Nicky Thompson changed chips. Only Matt Dino changed 10000 chips in the past, and then gave them thousands each.

Xiao Yao waited for them to change their chips and took them directly to a blackjack table in the casino.

Xiao Yao sits on a vacant seat in front of the gambling table, and the other three also find their own vacant seats. After the end of the game, Xiao Yao put down two thousand chips in the betting area in front of him, and the other three also made their own bets. Three people have doubts in their hearts, but so far, Xiao Yao's practice is very consistent with the behavior of ordinary guests in the casino. They all hold back and don't ask. They just follow Xiao Yao's appearance and observe silently.

After all the players at the table had made a bet, he put his hand to the card box and was about to deal the cards, but suddenly he took his hand back and pressed the earphone in his ear.

A few seconds later, the Dutch official put down his hand, but did not deal the cards. Instead, he looked at Xiao Yao and said, "sorry, sir, you can't bet!"

"Why?" Xiao Yao pretended to be surprised.

"Sorry, please take back your chips." He said, "the manager of the casino will come right away. He will explain it to you."

"Mr. Xiao!" At this time, a middle-aged man in a suit uniform came over and told Xiao Yao.

"Do you know me?" Xiao Yao turned to look at the casino manager."Of course!" The manager nodded. "It's not the first time you've come to our casino."

"Then why don't you let me bet?" Xiao Yao asked.

"I think you should know why!" Said the casino manager.

Casinos do share some information. Xiao Yao is not only on the blacklist of the casino, but also the manager of the casino knows that Xiao Yao was told by several casinos that he was blacklisted yesterday and was refused to go to the blacklist of 21 o'clock or even all the poker events on the spot.

"I don't know!" Xiao Yao showed an angry expression and deliberately raised the volume.

The manager of the casino frowned and waved to Xiao Yao, "Mr. Xiao, can you go to the office and have a talk?"

Xiao Yao's voice is a little loud. The manager of the casino doesn't want to influence other people in the Gambling Hall, so he wants to talk to Xiao Yao in a private place.

"Can we go together?" Bob Snow said, "we are his companions!"

Nicky Thompson was as surprised as the other players at the table when he refused to bet on Xiao Yao. All three of them know that Xiao Yao brought them here to tell them why he came to the casino. This reason will be big news. Hearing this, Bob snowman, a journalist, feels that the big news is coming. Of course, Xiao Yao can't go alone with the people in the casino.

"Yes, we are his companions!" Matt Dino said.

Matt Dino's reaction was not slow, and he soon thought of it.

"My companions and I are worried about my safety!" Xiao Yao said, "I can go to the office with you, but I ask them to accompany me!"

Xiao Yao originally wanted to put forward this point by himself, but since Bob snow and Matt Dino both spoke, Xiao Yao went on.

"Yes!" The casino manager took a look at them and nodded.

So they all put away their chips and followed the casino manager to an office.

"Mr. Shaw, you've been blacklisted by the casino." After entering the office, the manager of the casino said to Xiao Yao directly, "from today on, all the poker items in this casino will refuse to serve you. Here, you can only play slot machines, roulette and other non poker items. "

"As for you," the manager of the casino looked at Matt Dino and the other three, "we found that you entered our casino for the first time in the last month, and should not be Mr. Xiao's teammates, so the casino has not blacklisted you for the time being. But since you are with Mr. Xiao today, we will focus on you! "

"Wait a minute," Matt Dino waved. "Young's blacklisted in the casino? Why? "

"And then," Bob snow continued, "if it's a blacklist, why don't you just refuse him to play poker, and he can play other games?"

"Because we think he's a card counter, counting cards at blackjack!" "Slot machines and roulette can't be counted, so he's not forbidden to play," said the casino manager

"Count cards?" Bob snow was surprised. "Do you think Shaw can count cards?"

"Are you mistaken?" Matt Dino also said, "do you know, he's an acting star, and he's still very famous! Would a top performing star be a card counter? "

"We know!" The manager of the casino said with a bitter smile, "just because we know that he is an acting star, we have had differences when judging whether he is a card counter, which makes us confirm that he is a card counter a little later and makes the casino suffer more losses!"

"How do you make sure he's a card counter?" Asked Matt Dino.

"We checked. He's been in Las Vegas for nearly a month. During this month, he went to the casinos every day, even on the day he attended the Billboard Music Awards ceremony The manager said, "in this month, he has been to more than 20 casinos and never lost in any one. We have calculated that in one month, he has won more than 20 million yuan from more than 20 casinos, and the principal he has taken out is only 200000 yuan! "

"You take 200000, and you win more than 20 million a month from the casino?" Matt Dino looked at Xiao Yao like an alien.

"No one can do it just by luck!" "So, if Mr. Shaw doesn't count cards, I think he's the only one who can explain it," the casino manager continued

"Maybe I really have super power?" Xiao Yao looked at the manager of the casino and said with a smile.

"Do you really know how to count cards?" They looked at Xiao Yaodao with unbelievable faces.

They all found that Xiao Yao's expression had changed. Instead of his anger and doubts in the Gambling Hall, they were proud and joking. They knew that Xiao Yao actually admitted that he could count cards.
