Chapter 16 16.
"Lisa, how old are you?"
With a stack of free chips worth $10,000, Eric followed the seductive secretary to the casino.
Lisa frowned slightly: "Mr. Cooper, it's not a good habit to ask a woman's age casually."
Then she smiled again: "But since you are young and handsome, I am willing to tell you. I am 28 years old, single, and a mother of two children."
"Wow. Your figure doesn't show any signs of having had a child. It's just like a 20-year-old girl."
Eric said a little surprised, this is really not a lie, the girl in front of him is really tempting and full of flavor.
Lisa raised her lips and said, "I know, otherwise how could I be a secretary for Mr. Kerkorian?"
"What do you want to play? Poker, dice, roulette, or slot machines?"
Eric's mind popped up the Las Vegas scene from Friends, an episode from the fifth season that was filmed in Las Vegas, but he didn't know which casino it was.
"Let's roll the dice and see if I can hit the target like Monica."
“Are you a Friends fan?”
"Of course, I'm a big fan."
“Then you should give it a try, because that episode was filmed here.”
"Really?" Eric was a little surprised.
Lisa nodded: "Yes, I say that to every guest."
Hahahaha “I want two 1s.”
At the gambling table, Eric threw the dice casually, and the dice spun around a few times, and finally hit and turned over, revealing a point of 1.
Lisa tilted her head slightly and hummed a rather sentimental note with her nasal voice: "Good luck."
"Then there are two 2s next."
Eric threw the dice randomly again, and after a few turns of the dice, two points appeared at the same time.
The dealer pushed a stack of chips in front of Eric: "Sir, would you like to continue?"
"Of course, let's continue with two 3s."
He threw the dice without even looking at it, and in the eyes of everyone, the dice finally stopped at two threes.
Cheers suddenly rang out around OH , and Eric himself was surprised.
"Could it be that I am the reincarnation of the God of Gamblers? There seems to have been a film in Hong Kong about the God of Gamblers fighting in Las Vegas."
Lisa looked at him in surprise: "You lucky dog!"
Eric shrugged. "Then let's go ahead and do two more 4s."
A group of people around started yelling, and under everyone's enthusiastic gazes, the dice actually rolled two 4s.
Now, the dealer couldn't help but look at him suspiciously, as if asking if he was cheating.
But Lisa is the big boss's secretary, so it's impossible for the people she brought with her to cheat. It can only be attributed to good luck.
Soon, the cheers attracted many people around, surrounding Eric and Lisa.
"Sir, would you like to continue?"
Eric looked at Lisa, who nodded without hesitation: "Of course, we are in high spirits now!"
Eric couldn't help but pinch Lisa's small chin: "Then listen to your girl, what do we want next?"
"Of course it's two 5s. I think that's what everyone wants to see."
Five! Five! Five! The whole group of people raised their arms and shouted loudly.
Amid their shouts, Eric threw the dice, and after rolling a few times, the dice stopped at two 5s.
Yeah
, when Eric saw the result, he didn't feel anything, after all, he had earned 1.1 billion, but the audience around him were screaming with excitement.
The dealer continued to hand over the dice, and Eric played with them in his hands: "Want to try again?"
Lisa blinked. "One last time, how about two 6s?"
"As you wish my lady, if you guess correctly, these chips will be given to you as a small gift."
Hearing this, Lisa immediately became excited. If she won the next time, the ten thousand chips would quadruple to a full forty thousand dollars.
Don't think that as Kerkorian's secretary she makes a fortune. That's an illusion.
Because Kerkorian has six secretaries like Lisa, each of whom is responsible for a simple job.
The real chief secretary is someone else, and the role of lover is not hers. A big boss like Kerkorian will not arrange his lover to the company. Only the stupidest person will make such a decision.
So forty thousand dollars is equivalent to her income for half a year.
The dice kept spinning in the eyes of everyone, and after several collisions, it finally turned into 12 points.
Instantly, Lisa was in Eric's arms, her hands hanging around his neck.
The latest novel is published first on Liu9shuba!
A whisper sounded in Eric's ears.
"Come with me, I feel like my body is about to burn."
"Your home?"
"No, I can't wait that long!"
After instructing the dealer to exchange the chips, the two men walked into the bathroom one after the other, indulgently without restraint, which is the eternal theme of Las Vegas.
Amid the surprised and envious looks of the people around him, Eric walked out of the bathroom refreshed.
He was not interested in continuing gambling, so, accompanied by Lisa, he went to the theater to watch an opera, where Don Giovanni was being performed.
As a result, the opera was almost over, but there was still no news from my father.
"Isn't it that we didn't reach an agreement?"
The more he thought about it, the more upset he became. Eric suddenly grabbed Lisa's hand and ran to the bathroom again.
“I have a lot of temper!”
Inside the opera house, the two people who were sweating profusely suddenly shuddered.
"My call is from my boss. He wants to treat you to a meal. It seems that the discussion between your father and him has yielded some results."
"I hope so! Humph!"
On the plane, Charlie Cooper was full of smiles: "I said that Kerkorian has no interest in movies at all. The only thing he cares about is the business of MGM Hotel."
"Plus, we have known each other for more than ten years, so the process was smooth. He only put forward one condition."
"What conditions?"
"If we ever sell MGM, he has first right, and I agreed."
Eric nodded secretly. It seemed that Kerkorian was not optimistic that his father could run MGM well. But when you think about it, his father had been an executive for so many years, and MGM was still half-dead.
In Kerkorian's opinion, he and his son probably fooled some sucker and got the financing, but it didn't matter. It wouldn't be long before MGM would be back in his hands and continue to be a tool for money laundering.
"But I also put forward a condition that the 2.8 billion US dollars should be paid in two installments, 2 billion US dollars first, and the remaining 800 million US dollars should be paid within two years. This is the start-up capital."
Eric laughed. "Although it smells a bit like financial fraud, I will make sure that the bank and Kerkorian will not have this opportunity."
The review is too strict. Even the slightest bit of driving is not allowed. I had no choice but to delete them all.
