Chapter 173 Conflict of Interests



Even if you meet him face to face, you probably wouldn't recognize him. Helena Bergman's father had carefully disguised himself, even changing the color of his pupils.

Considering the special nature of my job, I flew all the way from Quantico, certainly not for sightseeing, but for a mission.

A young companion sitting next to him noticed his boss's gaze and asked in a low voice, "Isn't that the person on the list? Is there a problem with that Asian person?"

"My daughter's previous boyfriend seems to be in a new relationship. You don't have to worry about it and don't mention it to anyone, especially my daughter."

Mr. Bergman laughed and shook his head.

Suddenly I remembered the first time we met last year. Han Chudong said that crude oil prices would rise, and later they really went up to the sky.

Even though he doesn't really want his daughter to have an Asian boyfriend, he admits that in terms of investment vision, he is indeed quite capable, at least better than himself.

Strictly speaking.

There was only one person in this desert hotel casino who was worthy of the FBI's efforts - Howard Hughes.

The super-rich man had extensive connections and enormous power, and was involved in the Watergate scandal. Some people wanted to investigate the details of the incident in order to increase the stakes for their plan.

The increasing downward pressure on the economy has led to complaints from countless businessmen, and the dissatisfaction has been directly reflected in the media in recent times.

Ordinary people only know that Howard Hughes is a playboy and a movie lover, but few people mention his other side. Those who can control such huge wealth in this day and age are not ordinary people with simple minds.

The reason why Han Chudong's life is simple and straightforward now is because he is not qualified to touch the upper circle.

This is good, making a fortune quietly and saving a lot of trouble...

After booking two rooms and putting away their luggage on the eighth floor, they took Mochizuki Kyoko straight to the gambling table.

Only one thousand US dollars worth of chips were exchanged for a small gamble for fun. Han Chudong quickly lost at blackjack, while Mochizuki Kyoko focused on the slot machines and soon lost all her chips, successfully making a contribution to the casino.

I have heard many stories from Han Yiqiang about people who lost everything and even their families were destroyed.

His father was afraid that he would lose his mind after becoming rich, so he would remind his son not to do stupid things during casual conversations from time to time, and would always ask if he remembered it at the end.

In fact, Han Chudong is not a person who likes to gamble. To put it another way, he can already make money by doing business, so why should he covet the money at the gambling table? If he really wants to earn it, he can just go and earn it himself.

After losing all my money, I left immediately and went to the indoor swimming pool for a swim.

Even though he had seen it many times, when Mochizuki Kyoko changed into a black swimsuit, Han Chudong still couldn't help but admire her amazing figure. Fortunately, she was standing in the water so she didn't embarrass herself in public.

Taking the opportunity of teaching her to swim, I did a lot of little tricks.

——————————————

It is almost common knowledge that Howard Hughes and David Rockefeller, the head of the Rockefeller family, do not get along.

The two had a disagreement over United Airlines, and in the end it almost became a fight between Howard Hughes and half of Wall Street, and he ended up losing.

Because of the financial resources in Las Vegas, the old man kept spending money to smooth relations, which led to his involvement with the Watergate scandal. As a result, he has fallen into trouble recently. He has planned to withdraw all assets in Las Vegas, with a total amount of approximately over 500 million US dollars.

The fight between the super-rich is, after all, all about profit.

There are also many conflicts between the consortiums. The Eastern consortium is secretly suppressing the emerging Western consortium, and the forces led by the California consortium are fighting back.

Han Chudong knew that he was not strong enough, but he still liked to pay attention to the fights between these chaebols, just as a way to learn in advance, so that he would not be beaten by someone in the future and could not even figure out how the other party made their moves.

While swimming in the swimming pool, Han Chudong overheard others talking about Howard Hughes trying to sell his assets in Las Vegas. The word "poor" was written all over his face. If he had money, he might really try to take over. After thinking it over, he felt that it would not be too late to talk about it later. Anyway, the Venetian Hotel, Caesars Palace, and Wynn have not appeared yet. He still has the opportunity to enter the market in the future, but the profits may not be as lucrative as entering now.

Han Chudong felt a little restless when he suddenly realized that the legendary business tycoon was living right above his head.

Even such an astonishing speed of making fortune seemed like a turtle's pace in his eyes. He began to think seriously about what he could invest in with the remaining funds from selling patents.

You can't become fat in one bite, and you can't reach the sky in one step.

The scenery on the top of the mountain is certainly more beautiful, but you still have to run your business seriously first.

After swimming for more than an hour, I was exhausted and out of breath.

He said he was taking Kyoko Mochizuki back to her room to take a bath, and then he didn't step out of the room until night.

We originally planned to travel around the area during the weekend and only paid for one night.

Better luck.

There is no wrong version in the 1619 book forum!

The next day at noon, before returning to Los Angeles, I happened to meet Howard Hughes walking out of the car at the hotel entrance.

The former screen handsome guy and Hollywood heartthrob has now become an old man at this age. If the doorman hadn't greeted him, Han Chudong would not have believed that it was really him.

After seeing the super rich man himself, I felt much more balanced psychologically. Suddenly I remembered the saying that the waves behind push the waves in front, and the waves in front die on the beach. I inexplicably felt a surge of heroic spirit and went home in a good mood.

From the age of nineteen to twenty, Han Chudong didn't feel much, but his mixed-race female companion felt very comfortable about it.

Kiko Mochizuki is twenty-two years old.

In her eyes, there was a huge difference between dating a 19-year-old and dating a 20-year-old, and she finally got rid of the guilt that came from nowhere.

Because I was tired, I fell asleep on the way home and woke up at the door of my house.

Han Chudong had never talked about living together, and she would not bring it up first, so they maintained a semi-public relationship for the time being. The senior executives in the city headquarters gradually noticed this over the next few days, and became more polite towards Mochizuki Kiko.

Keep busy making money.

Mr. Matthew Russell of Marvel Comics called on the morning of March 10th and said that he had started shipping the first volume of "Super Racing" to various comic shops.

He got to know Mr. John Hunter, a comic book store tycoon in New York. When the toys were later launched on the market, he was able to make a profit as an agent.

Feeling that this relationship could be used, Han Chudong personally called him to discuss it. The other party patted his chest and promised to do his best to promote it. Everyone is willing to do a win-win business.

Mango Toys remains the same, all work at Mason Battery has been suspended, and the company's main focus is on the two companies, Baofeng Electric and Rainbow Beauty.

There was still more than 10 million US dollars in the public fund account. As the shops and display cabinets were finalized, more than 4 million US dollars were invested in just one week, including decoration expenses.

The Rodeo Drive store alone was not enough to break even, but the good news was that Rockwell delivered two assembly lines ahead of schedule and arranged for shipment.

It was shipped from Seattle in the north. If nothing goes wrong, it would arrive in Los Angeles on the morning of the 11th. The first batch of raw materials for production has been piled up in the warehouse...
