Reborn Xiangjiang as a Tycoon

Chapter 663 Energy is more important than money (two-in-one)

“Is this the casino in Las Vegas?!”

After Lin Baicheng and others entered the casino, Demi Moore, who was traveling with them, couldn't help but look around. This was her first time here.

Everyone in America knows the name of Las Vegas. Although not only rich people can come here, but people without a certain net worth will not come here. Demi Moore’s previous

Of course, due to my family background, it is impossible to come here to travel or have fun.

Demi Moore originally did not attend Phil Smith's bachelor party, but when everyone decided to come, they brought their female companions with them. Lin Baicheng did not bring the model prepared for him by Phil Smith, but instead brought Demi Moore.

Moore brought it over.

"It's one of a kind, but it's one of the most famous casinos in Las Vegas."

Lin Baicheng said, it is certain whether casinos and hotels in Las Vegas are profitable, but not everyone can do this business. You have to be able to do both black and white, and you don't want to hold the controlling stake alone.

A certain amount of benefit must be given away.

But Lin Baicheng is not envious, after all, he knows that there are many profitable industries.

Let’s not talk about the Internet industry, just the real estate industry. In the early 1980s, you could do real estate in Hong Kong. In the mid-to-late 1980s, you could go to Japan to do real estate. In the 1990s, you could do real estate in Hong Kong. After the 21st century, you can do real estate in Hong Kong.

Doing real estate in the Mainland.

Let’s not talk about other industries. In the real estate industry alone, in just a few decades, the principal can be doubled dozens of times. The income is no less than opening a casino, and it also provides peace of mind.

"I never thought I would be able to come here to play one day."

Demi Moore felt a little emotional that coming here to play was like throwing money away, something she had never imagined before.

Lin Baicheng smiled at the beauty: "Don't be so emotional, just have fun later."

While the two were talking, Phil Smith came over with his female companion.

Phil Smith said: "Alan, we decided to go our own way first and meet directly at the airport in three hours to go back to Los Angeles."

Lin Baicheng raised his eyebrows: "Aren't you going to spend the night here?"

"Although I really want to play all night, but tomorrow is the wedding day. If I, the groom, are late, my father will not forgive me." Phil Smith shrugged.

"Okay, see you in three hours."

Lin Baicheng doesn't care, it's just him and Demi Moore playing together.

"Bright, go help me exchange chips for 200,000 US dollars."

After Phil Smith left, Lin Baicheng wrote a check to Oni Bright and asked Oni Bright to exchange chips.

Lin Baicheng only had four bodyguards, two men and two women, so he did not let the bodyguards go and have fun separately, but asked the bodyguards to follow him. Although this is one of the largest casinos in Las Vegas and the order is very good, the gambling

If the ghost loses his sight, the ghost knows what will happen, so it is better to have the bodyguards with you.

After a while, Oni Bright came back after changing the chips.

"Come on Demi, we each have 100,000 US dollars. If we lose it all, we will lose it. Let's see which one of us has better luck."

Lin Baicheng invited Demi Moore to play, while the bodyguards followed behind.

"Great!"

Demi Moore cheered and held Lin Baicheng's arm. She was a little excited at the thought of having one hundred thousand dollars for her to play with. Her monthly pocket money was only five thousand dollars, and one hundred thousand dollars was equivalent to her twenty-month salary.

Pocket money.

Although Demi Moore's monthly pocket money of US$5,000 may not seem like much, it is actually quite a lot. After all, the per capita salary in the United States is less than US$500 per month, and US$5,000 is ten times the per capita salary.

Of course, the per capita salary does not mean that this is the only income for everyone. The income of most positions is more than 500 US dollars, not to mention middle-class people such as lawyers and doctors.

Still, five thousand dollars in pocket money is more than the monthly income of most lawyers and doctors.

What's more, this is Demi Moore's pocket money. She can get this money without doing anything every month, but others have to work every month, so the nature of the two is different.

With one hundred thousand US dollars in chips per person, Lin Baicheng quickly lost more than 10,000 US dollars. Then he gave the chips to Demi Moore to play with, while he himself watched from the side.

Going to the casino is nothing more than pursuing excitement or wanting to win money, but these do not attract Lin Baicheng.

First of all, in terms of winning money, you definitely can’t win too much. If you can win tens of millions of dollars, it will be amazing. But profits of tens of millions of dollars can’t excite Lin Baicheng at all. It’s not that he’s despised, but compared to dozens of dollars

With a profit of tens of billions of dollars, it is hard to make him feel happy by winning tens of millions of dollars.

Not to mention the excitement, no matter whether he wins or loses tens of millions of dollars, Lin Baicheng will not have much excitement in his heart. Needless to say, every time he wins or loses tens of thousands or hundreds of thousands of dollars, he can't get excited even if he wants to.

Not feeling the excitement, and not caring about winning or losing, Lin Baicheng naturally felt no happiness from gambling.

Unlike Lin Baicheng, Demi Moore plays very happily. Every time she wins or loses one or two thousand dollars, she can be excited or depressed. Her mood fluctuates with winning or losing. After all, for Demi Moore before she met Lin Baicheng

Say, one or two thousand dollars is not a small amount of money.

Time passed slowly, and about two hours later, Lin Baicheng and others left the casino and went to the airport.

Lin Baicheng and others were the first to arrive at the airport. They said they would meet at the airport in three hours. However, Phil Smith and others arrived late. The last two waited for half an hour and still didn't come. Therefore, Lin Baicheng

The others decided to go back to Los Angeles first.

After all, tomorrow is Phil Smith's wedding. The groom must have a good rest tonight and cannot attend the wedding listlessly.

…

Of course, Lin Baicheng did not bring Demi Moore to the wedding the next day, so he brought his bodyguard.

Lin Qin is still in her freshman year, so there is no need to bring her to make connections. Otherwise, she can take her to Phil Smith's wedding and make some friends.

When Lin Baicheng walked into the church where the wedding was held, he only brought the female bodyguard Ouni Bright with him, and no other bodyguards followed him. After all, he was attending a wedding held by others, so it was not easy to bring too many bodyguards with him. Phil Smith's family also

If you are not a gangster, the possibility of accidents at the wedding is very low.

"Mr. Allen, you are welcome to attend Phil and Anna's wedding."

This is an old white man in his fifties, Phil Smith's father, Lin Baicheng has met him several times.

"Smith is a good friend of mine. There is no reason why I shouldn't come to his wedding."

Lin Baicheng smiled and shook hands with old Smith, and at the same time said hello to Mrs. Smith.

"I'm glad Phil can have a friend like you, please come in."

Old Smith knew that Lin Baicheng had made a lot of money with Phil Smith, at least tens of millions of dollars, so he welcomed a friend who was both capable and could make money with his son, and he did not discriminate at all because of his skin color.

"Then I'll go in first."

Lin Baicheng knew that Old Smith had to greet a lot of people today, so he didn't talk much and walked in with Oni Bright.

Lin Baicheng went to the dressing room where the groom was staying. Phil Smith and a few friends were chatting. They were all acquaintances. Although everyone went to bed very late last night, they seemed to be in good spirits. At least they were not yawning listlessly.

"Alan, you're here."

Phil Smith said hello to Lin Baicheng.

"Congratulations, Smith!"

Although congratulations have already been given, today is Phil Smith’s big day.

"Thanks!"

Phil Smith accepted Lin Baicheng’s congratulations.

Everyone was chatting, and a few minutes later, another acquaintance was brought over.

"Jun Lin! Mr. Smith!"

The visitor greeted Lin Baicheng and Phil Smith, and of course the only person who called Lin Baicheng this way was Iwasaki Mineryu.

Mineryu Iwasaki and Phil Smith are business partners. They cannot be called friends. However, because of the middleman Lin Baicheng, they have cooperated before and their relationship is not bad. They both know that the other person is a person with assets and energy.

, willing to make friends with each other.

Therefore, on such a big day as Phil Smith's wedding, Iwasaki Mineryu was able to go away again, so of course he would come over to attend Phil Smith's wedding to maintain connections.

"I'm glad you came, Mr. Iwasaki!"

Phil Smith is also very happy about the arrival of Iwasaki Mineryu.

"I just came now. I thought you weren't coming, Iwasaki-kun."

Lin Baicheng said that he knew that Iwasaki Mineryu was coming to Phil Smith's wedding, and Iwasaki Mineryu had mentioned it to him before.

"How is that possible?"

Iwasaki Mineryu immediately said: "Today is Mr. Smith's big day, and I will come to attend it no matter what."

"Mr. Iwasaki, I haven't seen you for a while."

Logan Rockefeller came over to say hello to Iwasaki Mineryu. The last time they met was when Lin Baicheng held a birthday party.

Iwasaki Mineryu said: "It's been more than a month."

As the host, Phil Smith later introduced Iwasaki Mineryu to others, and also introduced them to Iwasaki Mineryu.

Of course, Phil Smith's friends are not ordinary people. They also know that Phil Smith's friends are not ordinary people, so they all greet Iwasaki Mineryu in a very friendly manner.

Here in the United States, there are all kinds of discrimination, but the rich will never suffer any discrimination, regardless of whether they are white or not.

Everyone is happy to be friends with rich people, and Iwasaki Mineryu is a rich man, so everyone is happy to be friends with him, just like when Phil Smith introduced Lin Baicheng, they were happy to make friends with Lin Baicheng

.

Time passed slowly as everyone chatted.

This wedding was the same as the Western-style wedding held by Lin Baicheng's sister Lin Shufang. The bride and groom became husband and wife under the witness of a priest, except that the priest was of a higher level.

In the evening, a dinner was held at the manor of Phil Smith's family.

In addition to saying hello to some acquaintances, Lin Baicheng also met some more people under the introduction of Phil Smith. They were all relatively famous families in California, as well as congressmen and other powerful people who were friends with the Smith family.

Phil Smith only acted as a middleman to help Lin Baicheng introduce each other to them. As for whether Lin Baicheng and them can become friends, it depends on Lin Baicheng and their attitude.

This is of course a good thing for Lin Baicheng. It would be best if he could make more friends. If he couldn't make friends, then he would have nothing to lose.

Because we had just met each other, we didn’t talk too much with each other, let alone talk in depth. We just wanted to get to know each other and lay the foundation for future contact.

"Iwasaki-kun, when are you going to go back to Xiangjiang?"

After finishing chatting with some people, Lin Baicheng went to find Iwasaki Mineryu who was drinking alone.

Iwasaki Mineryu said: "Have a day off tomorrow, the day after tomorrow."

"The day after tomorrow, in the name of the chairman of Galaxy Games, I will send an invitation to all shareholders in the United States to hold a party. If you are not in a hurry to go back, you can go back after attending this party." Lin Baicheng said.

"If Mr. Lin wants to hold such a party, of course I have no reason not to participate."

After hearing this, Mineryu Iwasaki immediately said that he was also a small shareholder of Galaxy Games. Having said that, the stock price of Galaxy Games has more than tripled since its listing. He could not be dissatisfied with such a return on investment.

"By the way, Mr. Lin, are you holding the party this time just to get shareholders together, or do you have any plans?"

Lin Baicheng said: "It's just a simple gathering."

"Alan!"

Just then, Claude Rockefeller walked over.

"Clauer."

Lin Baicheng raised his glass and signaled to Claude Rockefeller.

In the morning, Iwasaki Mineryu and Claude Rockefeller had already known each other, so there was no need for him to introduce them to each other again.

Claure Rockefeller raised his glass in response, took a sip of wine, and said: "I have already contacted Abigail. You know, she is still a college student and will be more free on weekends. If you think it's okay, Ellen,

, how about coming to my place for afternoon tea tomorrow afternoon?"

"Okay, then I'll go to your place tomorrow afternoon."

Lin Baicheng has no objection. It doesn't matter where they meet.

"Then the time will be set."

Later, Claude Rockefeller said he wanted to say hello to others and left.

After he left, Iwasaki Mineryu couldn't help but ask: "Who is this Abigail?"

"The eldest lady of Fidelity Investment Group, Abigail Johnson, I only met her through Claure's introduction."

Lin Baicheng simply said that he did not say that he would cooperate with Abigail Johns to establish a TV network. He was not prepared to cooperate with Iwasaki Mineryu when investing in the TV network, just as he had never thought of working with Bao Yugang and others.

Cooperation is the same.

The place where the TV network was established is the United States. Whether it is Bao Yugang and others or Iwasaki Mineryu, they have no influence in the United States. They can only provide money. Lin Baicheng is not lacking in money, but he is protecting the TV network.

The power of escort.

The Rockefeller family of Claure Rockefeller, the Johnson family of Abigail Johnson, and the Smith family of Phil Smith can all contribute to the protection of the television network.

This was the fundamental reason why Lin Baicheng asked them to cooperate. He didn't lack the little money they invested.
