Problem Statement

Let AA be a point in the plane and 33 lines which pass through this point divide the plane in 66 regions. In each region there are 55 points. We know that no three of the 3030 points existing in these regions are collinear. Prove that there exist at least 10001000 triangles whose vertices are points of those regions such that AA lies either in the interior or on the side of the triangle.
