For horse racers, making money is victory!

The ribbons and horseshoes were all put in as a set.

As for the championship trophy, it was quite heavy and needed to be packed separately, so she specially asked URA to help pack it and send it to her hometown in the United States.

Just send it out by express tomorrow!

"Then, we can send out the gifts for Da Hong and Aunt Penny together tomorrow."

Although the expedited international shipping was expensive, the white-haired, red-eyed girl had no choice but to grit her teeth and pay for it in order to get it delivered as soon as possible.

Today, after much hard work, I finally paid off my family's debts.

Then I can really save money and earn bonuses next year!

"Next year will bring new challenges."

"Then we'll be facing a true, unfettered, and unburdened 'End-of-the-Century Overlord.'" yk

Thinking of the opponent's strength, Xiao Bai Zhui Xue became extremely cautious and did not let his guard down in the slightest.

Even now, with her 4GI wins, she will never underestimate good opera in the slightest.

After all, according to the historical timeline, Good Opera is a triple crown winner in the fall, comparable to Emperor's GOAT and the king of 7GI.

The original timeline of the Overlord Opera will achieve a seven-game winning streak in the single-year replay category next year, winning three GI matches and four GI matches.

As a result, at the final Arima Memorial race, after failing to secure a good position at the gate, all the female racehorses around her regarded her as their biggest rival and surrounded her with unwavering unity and at all costs.

Because everyone felt that the opera was too overpowering, if they blocked her acceleration route, they might not be able to win. But if they didn't block it, they definitely wouldn't win.

Finally, Good Opera seized the opportunity and pulled it out, creating the super miracle of eight consecutive wins in a single year and 5 GI in a single year.

Even decades later, let alone surpassing Good Opera in "Annual GI Count", there is no one that can even match her.

yark

It is conceivable that the dominance of good opera will be quite exaggerated next year.

In contrast, while Xiaobai Zhuixue currently has fewer winning odds (GI), her winning streak with rebates is significantly longer...

Therefore, if you fail to secure a position in the competition, you may be surrounded and treated the same way by your opponents.

If a good opera's only rival is itself...

That night, Bai Zhui Xue not only had to be wary of a good opera, but also of the famous general's wrath and even everyone else in the audience.

This is the "preferential treatment" that a super popular favorite to win the championship must experience.

Therefore, next year's competition will not have any senior players like Zhou to deal with.

But the actual difficulty of the competition will only be greater!

The opponent's strength and the level of vigilance one is under will only be more exaggerated!

Xiao Bai Zhui Xue's mere one-third progress in becoming a true master was simply not enough to support her advancement towards the [Domain] level.

"I guess I can only hope to win something good in next month's quarterly bonus."

Xiao Bai Zhui Xue closed the package of the gift she was going to give and placed it on the table.

The table was almost completely covered with snacks.

She had previously bought a bunch of candies and snacks when she went to the shopping street.

In addition, when Xiaobai Zhuixue unpacked the gifts sent by fans, she also received a lot of snacks of all kinds because Christmas was approaching.

"Hmm, we can't finish it all."

"I'll give some to Big Red and Aunt Penny, then I'll eat some, and the rest can be given to the other ponies."

You can feed them to the seniors like Good Opera, General Soy Sauce, and Little Chestnut Hat.

Oh, and there's one more person I need to thank, so I'll send them a gift too.

Wada trainer!

Thinking of this, Xiao Bai Zhui Xue's lips curled up slightly.

The next moment, her phone rang with a text message notification.

That was a text message from URA.

[Miss Xiaobai Zhuixue, the annual best awards selection will begin tonight.]

[Congratulations in advance on becoming the winner of the year!]

164. A bright red gift, what a spoiled brat!

Congratulations in advance on becoming the winner of the year!

Huh?

The snow-white-clad girl raised an eyebrow as she looked at the text message displayed on her phone.

The annual best awards are undoubtedly the most important "cake-sharing" part of the year-end and beginning-of-year process.

As early as when the Chrysanthemum Appreciation Competition ended, URA's senior management informed her that she had already secured the Best of the Year award and that she didn't need to worry about not winning it.

Even if they win the Fall Triple Crown in Special Week, it won't change this outcome. Even though the Eagles are the GOAT in international competitions, URA doesn't value them as much as Yui Shiro.

After all, both Special Zhou and Divine Eagle are about to retire, while Xiao Bai Zhui Xue is much younger and can continue to fight for more.

For the development of Japanese competitions, the value of an undefeated triple crown is far greater than that of the runner-up at the Arc de Triomphe and the triple crown in autumn!

Therefore, with the possibility of winning the Fall Triple Crown during the special week and the Hawks being the GOAT in international competitions, URA went all in on the day, intending to award the Player of the Year award to Xiao regardless.

Bai Zhui Xue.

However... this is bound to be somewhat controversial.

After all, for the "strength party," Kaga's international racing results set a new record for Japanese female horse racers, so how could it possibly be defeated by a foal that has never been to sea?

Therefore, Xiaobai Zhuixue chose to win the Arima Memorial and asked URA to help make the annual vote for Shintaka a special case of "two kings".

In this way, you won't offend anyone.

The strongest single-year extreme 4GI in domestic competition, the only two undefeated triple crowns in Japanese history, and the strongest in foreign competition, is it reasonable to be ranked with them?

Even the most dedicated fans of the Shinkyo would never believe that this year's Shinkyo can unconditionally surpass Souhaku Osaka.

After all, the Hawks have had relatively few matches this year, and have only won two out of four.

One of them was a preliminary match for GII at the Arc de Triomphe.

Xiaobai Zhuixue, however, has fought more than twenty matches without a single defeat, and achieved four wins in a single year in the GI rankings!

Winning one GI match this year, tying with Xiaobai Zhuixue's four GI wins this year, is already enough to give this "GOAT in international competitions" face.

"As is customary, let's start with the first round."

Bai Zhuixue remembers the annual voting mechanism.

One or two hundred media reporters, qualified by URA, will vote on the foals within the selection scope to choose the "Best New Horse of the Year" and "Most..."

"A series of bestsellers such as 'Classic Year Racehorse Girl'".

"Then, in a few days, the most important second round will begin, from among these different 'best' candidates, to determine the true 'best of the year.'"

Then, he will have one more trophy to his name.

Not bad!

Xiao Bai Zhui Xue had to admit that the collaboration with URA over the past year had been quite pleasant.

The resources given to her, such as increased sales commissions, are quite good.

It can only be said that when it comes to making money, she and URA are indeed kindred spirits, and together they achieve a win-win situation.

Next year is the Year of the Horse, so let's continue to make money together!

"Although the last debt in my family will be paid off, just like the inheritance tax, after I receive my Arima Memorial Bonus and this month's merchandise sales commission."

"But I still need to earn more money."

Xiao Bai Zhui Xue plans to continue his battles and make big money next year.

After all, she also needed to plan for the future.

Although she was quite happy living in her single dormitory at Teresa Academy in Japan, which was about the same size as her room back home in the United States, where she shared a room with Da Hong...

But in the end, Xiaobai Zhuixue can't stay here forever, can he?

According to Xiaobai Zhuixue's understanding, many famous racehorse girls choose to leave their families and hometowns, either voluntarily or involuntarily, due to their ambition or natural adaptability.

After all, many places around the world have their own unique characteristics.

Europe, primarily France, the UK, and Ireland, focuses on grassland miles and grassland mid-distances.

Australia, on the other hand, focuses on short distances over grasslands.

In the United States, muddy terrain is the main sport.

Due to adaptation reasons, it is not uncommon for people to leave their hometowns in order to better utilize their talents.

A typical example is Xiao Bai Zhui Xue herself. Although her family isn't considered prestigious, she was in a similar situation because she wasn't suited to muddy terrain and had to move to grassy areas, which is easier or more difficult.

Japan at that time.

In addition, the Arc de Triomphe dark horse, Heidelberg, also went to Europe in the same way.

After achieving success, gaining prestige and building connections in the local area, it would be too high a price to pay if one were to retire and immediately return home, abandoning everything from the past.

Wouldn't that be equivalent to making some prize money and then leaving? That would be a huge waste of all the hard work and effort put into one's entire career.

Therefore, very few people actually leave directly.

These racehorse girls usually have two choices.

Alternatively, they could choose to settle down and establish themselves in a place where they could build their own legacy, becoming a new and renowned family, forming their own school, and staying overseas for the long term.

Alternatively, establishing a "branch family" overseas would allow them to travel back and forth between the two places, returning to their ancestral home while also having a new one...

Yoshiro Tsurugi, who plans to earn money long-term and wants to retire like Koshiro and continue to earn money from Japanese fans, will certainly not completely leave Japan.

The white-haired foal who misses Japan isn't just reminiscing about her childhood. She also thoroughly enjoyed the fun of battling and blasting fish in Japan over the past year, and she'll definitely cherish those memories in the future.

Therefore, Xiao Bai's choice to chase the snow must be...

—We will never completely abandon our business in Japan!

Even if she can demonstrate versatility and reach world-class status in the future, competing overseas, she will not abandon this place.

"We can learn from Dahlia and Hai Dushi."

"They can run around everywhere, so can I."

Dahlia, a grass-growing genius queen from the United States, achieved remarkable success in her conquests in Europe.

Then I'd spend some time in Europe, then come back to the US for a couple of races, and then go back to Europe again...

As for Hai Dushi, although she mainly manages the "Hai Family" she established in Europe after retiring, she will also return to Hong Kong and Japan, which she is familiar with, from time to time.

"Let's keep working hard and making money in the Year of the Horse!"

"At that time, we'll renovate our old home in the US and build a new grass training field so I can continue training when I go home."

"Then, in Japan and Europe... we'll try to build estates as grand as the Mejiro family's!"

"When Da Hong comes to Japan, he'll give her a real surprise!"

Xiao Bai Zhui Xue made a grand vow!

Although she felt it was a long way off and quite difficult to complete.

yt

Housing prices in major cities in Japan and Europe are quite staggering.

Fortunately, I can run for many years.

Indeed, being an extremely late bloomer has its advantages.

Long shelf life! You can also collect more rice!

After the initial reflection.

The snow-white-clad girl sat down directly on the edge of the bed.

She then picked up her phone.
