Hollywood Director 1992.

Chapter 379 Everyone loves the rich, but don't come near the poor.

"Is it that president?"

In the hotel study, Monica massaged his shoulders, her beautiful face peeking out from behind, her red lips luscious and tempting like cherries.

"Yes, I don't know where he heard that I like playing golf, so he invited me to play golf at the White House."

Lin Ke held the woman in his arms, his hands soothing her increasingly full curves, turning the rounded arcs into soft waves.

"It's mainly because you're so amazing. He values ​​your influence in Hollywood and wants to win you over to prepare for the next election. Should you support him?"

Monica rested her head on his shoulder, blinking her long eyelashes, her beautiful eyes filled with adoration and joy.

“He has a good reputation and a chance to win the election. If the conversation goes well, we can offer him some support.”

Link thought for a moment and said that starting in the 1960s, the Democratic Party gradually gained an advantage in California and controlled the state legislature in the 1970s, and continued to dominate for decades afterward.

The Clintons are Democrats, and they still have an advantage, so supporting them is a good idea.

There are many benefits to supporting them. First, they can take advantage of policy conveniences to make investments and increase their capital base. Second, they can expand their political network, improve their social status, and obtain political protection.

However, given the complexity and chaos of American politics and the frequent changes in policies, he will not get deeply involved in politics, much less place his bets on one side.

For example, Guess What Films is headquartered in California, so it can support the Donald Party through its corporate structure; FlashGold Capital is headquartered in New York, so it can support the Elephant Party in the same way.

As a billionaire, he enjoys a transcendent status in America. Even if he were to have his cake and eat it too, no one would say anything. Whichever side comes to power, they would all need to win him over.

He knows which side will win, so betting in advance increases his chances of winning and brings him more benefits.

Jingle Bell!
Just as Link was whispering sweet nothings to Monica, the phone on the table rang again. Link pulled his hand away from Monica's arms and answered the phone. The caller was Greg Davis, the chief investment officer of Vanguard Capital.

"Chairman Lin, congratulations on your huge increase in net worth. Your investment acumen and business management skills are too strong. Even someone like me who has been working in the investment industry for more than 20 years can't compare to you."

Greg Davis is more careful and polite than before.

"Thank you! You're too modest."

"Haha, no, I'm telling the truth. The most successful deal I've made since taking office was investing in Guess Movies. But compared to the investments your Flash Capital has made in recent years, I'm far behind. I should learn from you."

After a few words of reflection, Greg Davis got down to business, asking if he was interested in working with Vanguard Capital.

Vanguard Capital is the largest capital management firm on Wall Street, managing over $2000 billion in assets and being an investor in numerous Fortune 500 companies.

Although FlashGold Capital's overall size is not comparable to Vanguard Capital, Link has the highest decision-making power in FlashGold Capital and can access more funds than any investment officer under Vanguard Capital. In addition, FlashGold Capital also owns many rare shares.

If Vanguard Capital establishes a partnership with FlashGold Capital, it can also profit from the deal.

Link did not refuse Greg's invitation, saying he would contact Jack Brennan, chief investment officer of FlashGold Capital, to discuss the possibility of cooperating with Vanguard Capital on behalf of the company, as Jack Brennan and others were more professional in this regard.

Greg Davis expressed his excitement and anticipation.

He hung up the phone, hugged and kissed Monica, and then the phone rang again.

Hank Paulson of Morgan Stanley, Kimberly Harris, CEO of Goldman Sachs, and CEOs or chairmen of investment firms such as Deutsche Bank and BlackRock Capital called to discuss cooperation.

Link agreed to everything.

Currently, he not only owns FlashGold Capital, but also Horizon Angel Investment Company, Hong Kong Island Gold Mountain Investment Company, and Rose Garden Asset Management Company.

FlashGold Capital's public value exceeds six billion.

Horizon Investments is a hidden investment firm in the Cayman Islands. In addition to holding 21.5% of FlashGold Capital, the company also owns 75.8% of Gold Mountain Investment and 25% of Rose Garden Investment.

Among them, Hong Kong Island Gold Mountain Investment Company received an investment of approximately US$12 billion from Horizon Investment Company last year.

Currently, Kingsoft Investment manages 11.35% of Dell's shares. When it acquired Dell's shares last year, Dell's total market value was only $28 billion. By the beginning of this year, Dell's market value had grown to $42 billion, making the 11.35% stake worth approximately $4.8 million.
It also owns 1.2% of Cisco Systems, worth approximately $3.9 million;
13.34% of LVMH's shares, valued at approximately $5.33 billion.

Including shares in several major Hong Kong real estate companies and companies such as China Petroleum, China Petrochemical, and China Power, the value is approximately US$4 million.

Currently, Kingsoft Investment Company manages approximately US$18 billion in assets.

Including several investment companies, his net worth exceeds $80 billion. Collaborating with large investment firms such as Vanguard Capital and Morgan Goldman Sachs also facilitates the company's investment in other areas, diversifying its investments, increasing returns, and reducing risks.

"Do we need to make another call?"

After he finished his call, Monica hooked her arms around his neck, her eyes alluring and seductive.

"I'm not fighting anymore. Nothing is more important than you."

Link felt the heat and dampness on her legs intensify, so he reached out and pulled her onto the desk, pulling the long telephone cord to place the phone in a suitable position.
-
Yu Feihong arrived at the door of the guest suite, pushed open the door to call Link and Monica out for dinner, and heard laughter coming from inside.

She peeked through the crack in the door and saw two large chandeliers hanging from the lamp post, shining brightly like a full moon. Her cheeks immediately burned.

Although she and Monica had been honest with each other and she knew how great Monica's figure was, she still couldn't help but blush when she saw Monica from this angle.

"Yu, what are you looking at?"

Jennifer Lopez and Catherine Zeta-Jones walked in from outside.

"Shh~"

Yu Feihong raised her index finger, gently closed the door, pointed inside, and whispered to the two that Link and Monica were doing something important.

Catherine Zeta-Jones covered her mouth and laughed, "Link is amazing. He filmed all day and still has so much energy to keep going. He's got so much energy."

"Yes, Link is Superman, no, he's cooler and more manly than Superman, I love him to death."

Jennifer Lopez took off her high heels, tiptoed to the door, and peered into the room with sparkling eyes. "Stop looking, you're disturbing Monica's enjoyment. She might scold you."

Catherine Zeta-Jones offered this reminder.

"I'm not afraid of her at all."

Jennifer Lopez curled her lips, seemingly unconcerned. After peeking through the crack in the door for a few seconds, she retreated back into the living room, not disturbing Monica and Link's conversation.

At the mountaintop villa in Beverly Hills, although everyone is Link's woman and they get along like sisters, their family status is somewhat different.

Monica, Liu Xiaoli, Jennifer Connelly, and Sophia spent the most time with Link and had a greater say in the villa, enjoying more resources. The others spent less time with Link and had less say at home.

When dealing with those who have more influence, everyone tends to be more courteous and tries to avoid conflicts.

Fortunately, Link is wealthy and powerful, with abundant resources, and he is fair to everyone, able to meet everyone's needs.

There was no need for anyone to fight over it; the atmosphere inside the villa was quite pleasant.

Yu Feihong, Catherine, and Jennifer chatted outside, and half an hour later Link and Monica came out for dinner.

"Monica, your skin is getting better and better, and you're even more beautiful. I'm so envious of you."

Catherine Zeta-Jones ate her fruit salad while sizing up Monica across from her. Although Monica was unsteady on her feet after coming out of the house, her rosy and supple skin and languid and charming demeanor were stunning, even for a woman.

"Don't be envious, you'll become more and more beautiful in the future. Look, isn't your figure much sexier now?"

Monica held a cigarette between her fingers, glanced at her, and smiled.

Catherine joined the hilltop villa early last year. With Link's help, her figure became more rounded and upright, her skin and complexion improved a lot, and the biggest change was in her temperament.

She used to be just a migrant worker, at most a pretty woman. Now she is the wife of a billionaire, worth over a million dollars. She wears haute couture clothes and designer jewelry every day, travels in luxury cars, and is frequently featured in the newspapers.

She became a celebrity and a wealthy woman, and her temperament became elegant and refined; she was no longer the small-time actress who had to worry about rent every day.

"Yes, my figure is getting better, and everything else is great too."

Catherine Zeta-Jones laughed.

"But it's probably not easy for us to become as beautiful as Monica."

Jennifer Lopez said while eating dessert.

"You're beautiful too, there's no need to look like me."

Monica brushed a strand of hair from the corner of her mouth and smiled.

Jennifer Lopez winked and laughed, “I’m saying Monica spends the most time with Link, and most often, almost every day. If we want to be as good as Monica, it will take us at least four or five years.”

Monica rolled her eyes at her and laughed, "Are you blaming me for sneaking food?"

"No, I just envy you."

Jennifer laughed.

Monica snorted and said to Link, who came out of the house, "Jennifer said she's very hungry and that you're no good, that you never give her enough to eat, and that she hopes you'll be harsher on her."

"Don't talk nonsense, I didn't say that."

Jennifer Lopez was so frightened that she reached out to cover her mouth. Link was already very violent, and if he were any more violent, she would die. Monica was saying this to kill her.

"Okay, all the food tonight is for Jennifer."

Link made a joke and sat down to eat dinner.

During dinner, Catherine Zeta-Jones brought up something.

Last week, I met Michael Douglas, the actor who starred in "Basic Instinct," at the Deauville Film Festival.

Douglas approached her about movies, saying he could help her find a role, but Catherine declined. With UTA agency and Link in her life, she had no shortage of resources.

She thought the matter was over, but during this time Michael Douglas kept calling and emailing her, trying to ask her out.

Catherine brought this up because she was worried that if she met Douglas again in the future, some rumors might spread and Link might misunderstand.

"Michael Douglas? This guy is over fifty, how come he's pursuing a young girl like you? He's old in years but young at heart."

Jennifer Lopez laughed.

"Catherine is a classic beauty, and now her figure has become very sexy. She's even more beautiful now, and many perverts like her. Isn't that right, Link?"

Monica blinked and asked.

Link smiled slightly, naturally not considering himself to be the same kind of person as Douglas.

Originally, Catherine Zeta-Jones met Michael Douglas a few years after coming to Hollywood from England. Douglas pursued her, and the two later married, becoming a representative of older men marrying younger women in Hollywood.

Unexpectedly, even after his intervention, Douglas still took a liking to Zeta-Jones, which can only be described as a tragic fate.

“Catherine, you don’t need to worry about this. Just work and live your life normally. If you encounter any trouble, just tell me and I will handle it.”

"Ok!"

Catherine smiled as she took his hand.
