It's always better to be prepared for danger in times of peace. It's always better to be cautious.

It is a bit dangerous to say, but Mason United Group is in very healthy financial condition and some of its assets can be sold relatively easily, so the risk is not too great.

The weakness lies in Han Chudong himself. Once someone thinks it is profitable to kill him and actually does it, everything will be over.

For the sake of his own safety, he felt that he needed to become a person who was valuable in the eyes of others, and also have public influence, so that he could get to know more important people and make money with them.

Ever since his net worth exceeded 100 million, Han Chudong began to think about these things.

The situation was there and he had no choice but to be careful. As a young Chinese man, he had such a huge fortune, which in the eyes of some people was a mistake in itself.

After listening to this, President Babe Robinson was really interested and asked uncertainly, "Are you very confident that if you lose a lot of money, it will not be a small amount. How much money are you willing to accept to compensate for all the losses?"

"Of course, I plan to raise about 100 million US dollars in the early stage. I am still learning how to manage funds, so the scale will not be too large."

Han Chudong shook the wine glass.

The glass contained three-year-old Margaux red wine, which was said to be from one of the most famous wineries in France, but he could not tell whether it was good or bad. He felt it was similar to those women's luxury goods, with too high a brand value, far exceeding the product itself.

"...One hundred million US dollars, isn't that a big deal?"

President Robinson suddenly remembered that Han Chudong had just earned more than 100 million US dollars half an hour ago. He felt that it didn't seem like much, so he continued, "If you promise to protect the principal and reduce the management fee, I will report this news to the head office seriously, and I believe in your ability to pay."

"Thank you very much. Please feel free to find any beautiful ladies to talk to. I'll go ask around somewhere else first. Many people from financial investment companies are here. Maybe we can raise 100 million US dollars tonight." Han Chudong clinked glasses with him, took a sip, and continued to socialize somewhere else.

The private placement plan was passed on to other people, especially financial investment companies and executives of the beauty industry. The company also promised to absolutely protect the principal and said it was willing to provide a personal guarantee, which aroused the interest of many people.

I'm not too excited. After all, the purchasing power of the U.S. dollar depreciates so much in a year, and it's useless to just protect the principal.

Marriott's new hotel has marble walls and marble floors at the party venue, which has a strong ancient Roman atmosphere.

The long table was covered with red cloth, and a champagne tower was placed on it, along with flowers and cakes. The people in the planning department also used this to promote the Mason United Group. The poster at the door had a brief introduction to each subsidiary and a photo of Han Chudong.

This made many singers and film and television stars know Han Chudong, and they came to greet him one after another. Some of them even knew about his agreement with Universal Pictures and bought the movie called "Jaws".

Any news in the Hollywood film and television circles will quickly reach their ears.

Considering that Han Chudong has so many industries under his control and may need a spokesperson or something, several famous male and female celebrities gave him their contact information and tried to get to know him in a very friendly manner.

It is normal to give the work phone number, but two female stars specifically told me that this is their personal contact information, so it cannot be simply understood literally.

In the early years, unspoken rules were rampant in Hollywood. They would usually only give others their agent's number. Giving Han Chudong her personal number was tantamount to telling him that he could make an appointment with her.

Unfortunately, Han Chudong was rather picky, so he simply put the business card in his pocket, and there was a good chance that they would never get in touch again.

——————————————

The party held by Rainbow Beauty Company became a hot topic among Hollywood actresses in a short period of time.

Not only was it because the two agency rights were sold at a sky-high price, but also because several female celebrities received high-priced endorsement contracts at that party, including even Chanel, which was not present at the auction.

More than ten days passed in the blink of an eye.

As June approached, some changes took place in Han Chudong's industry.

A public relations department was quietly established at the headquarters of Mason United Group. It not only serves the company, but also serves Han Chudong personally. More than 20 industry elites were recruited from media companies, public relations companies, and even Washington officials.

It also acquired a qualified private equity firm and changed its name to Mason United Fund. Han Chudong didn't even know where it was.

A total of more than four million US dollars were spent, and a third-party consulting company was responsible for the reorganization, laying off some employees and recruiting some. The first investment came from Mason United Group, with a total amount of 40 million US dollars. An investment bank under Bank of America followed suit and invested 10 million US dollars.

The third investor had an average relationship with Han Chudong. Her name was Caroline Litton, the eldest daughter of the second largest shareholder of Litton Industries.

Last time she wanted to invest in Rainbow Beauty, she was rejected and nothing happened again. This time, she heard that a private equity fund had been established and agreed to invest 10 million US dollars that day.

She is a smart girl with her own ideas. She knows the truth that it is more likely to make money by following rich people. Han Chudong's achievements have been printed on the cover of Fortune magazine and have been reported as front-page news by the Wall Street Journal. She is willing to take a gamble on the so-called capital preservation fund.

The fourth investor was a Los Angeles financial company, which invested $3 million. There were also two Wall Street companies and Procter & Gamble, which invested a total of $12 million.

The money is still unused in the company's account, mainly because the so-called "fund manager", Han Chudong himself, has been busy with his own business and opening branches of Rainbow Beauty recently, and has no energy to take care of that side.

There is no wrong version in the 1619 book forum!

One day, I talked to a newly hired manager on the phone, mentioned the names of several companies, and asked him to continue looking for wealthy people, fund management companies, and large enterprises to invest, and then I just left him alone.

A total of five companies were mentioned, namely Walmart, KFC, Nike, Coca-Cola, and General Electric.

It would be a disaster if something could go wrong. There was no need for Han Chudong to worry. He planned to increase his holdings and make regular investments as soon as he had money, and then consider entering the Nasdaq market in a few years.

He took out another 20 million US dollars to continue investing in Intel, raising his proportion of total share capital to 31%. This time he really became a major shareholder through stock speculation, and a major shareholder of Intel at that.

Sometimes Han Chudong himself felt that the life of rich people was low-key and boring, mainly because it was easy to make money and there was not much challenge.

On June 8th.

He, his father, and Kyoko Mochizuki, who had just returned from Europe, came to a golf club called Ranch Park.

It is only two kilometers away from Century Square and very close to the company and the villa next to the church.

The historic Ranch Park Golf Club, with an 18-hole fairway and par 71 championship course, has hosted the Los Angeles Open and the LPGA Tour many times and is part of the city's green space.

After visiting here for a while, Han Chudong was very interested and asked curiously: "Are you sure this company is ready to be sold? Everything is good. It should have been renovated only a few years ago. Why is it changing hands?"

Han Yigun was very excited.

Therefore, my beloved son actually had the idea of ​​buying a golf course, so I would rather pretend to be sick and take a leave to come with him today.

He told Han Chudong, "I come here often and I'm very familiar with the manager. It seems that they are trying to raise funds to open a casino hotel in Las Vegas. They just renovated it two years ago and are trying to sell it for a good price. It's pretty good in every aspect."
