Hardy and David Mersey were talking about casinos. Mersey’s biggest concern was the future passenger flow. Hardy smiled and said: "It’s very simple. To make Las Vegas a paradise for men will naturally attract To the guests."

"Men heaven?"

"Gambling, wine, women, all kinds of performances, all men like here are there, here is only enjoyment, coming here is like coming to a man's paradise."

"Las Vegas will also host Miss World elections, Victoria's Secret model contest, underwear show, boxing competition, horse racing dog competition, these competitions will attract a large number of tourists."

David Mersey smiled and nodded, "I want to go for everything."

Hardy seemed to think of something and said, "David, I have friends in the East. They said that there is a lack of penicillin. I don't know if I can buy a batch from you."

"Penicillin is basically in short supply. There is a lot of demand in China and Europe. We have not officially supplied to Eastern countries for the time being. It is too poor there, but since your friend wants it, it’s okay. I can divide it up. ." David Mersey said with a smile.

"How much can you give me?"

Mersey thought for a while, "How about 50,000 bottles a month?"

Hardy figured it out inwardly.

The wholesale price of 200,000 units of dry powder penicillin is $1 each, and domestic hospitals in the United States sell for $2 to $3 a bottle. Now the price in Hong Kong hospitals is about $10 each, and the black market price is even more than $30.

Give yourself 50,000 bottles, the purchase price is 50,000, and the price for Hong Kong hospitals can be sold for 500,000, if it is sold at a black market price, it will be 1.5 million.

Profiteering.

"50,000 bottles are too few." Hardy said.

Mersey spread his hands, "Hadi, you have to know, because you are my friend and partner, I will give you this batch of medicine, and it is impossible for others to get it."

Speaking, Mersey leaned into Hardy's ear and said, "There is actually another reason for not exporting large amounts of penicillin to the east, that is, the government has secret restrictions."

Hardy finally understands now.

With the smell of these capitalists, it is impossible not to know that the East is making money, and it is probably because of government restrictions that they did not intervene.

Business in Europe and the United States has allowed them to make enough money. If they do not obey the government's restrictions on exporting to the East, they may be punished by the government, which is not worth the loss for a large pharmaceutical company.

"One hundred thousand bottles, too few, there is no need to do this business." Hardy said.

Mersey thought for a while, "OK, I promised you."

Hardy smiled and shook hands with Mersey.

"Mersey, why not set up a pharmaceutical factory in the East?" Hardy said.

Mersey smiled, "I have had ideas before, but it's too far away, the market is not developed, and it is far from opening up the American and European markets to make money."

"David, how about this? Let's cooperate to build a pharmaceutical factory in Hong Kong. You are responsible for the technology, and I am responsible for the construction and sales. The first product is penicillin." Hardy said.

Mersey looked at Hardy seriously, "Are you very optimistic about the East?"

Hardy said, "Too many people are staring at the European and American markets. The East is actually a blank. People don't pay attention to it. However, there are a lot of people over there. The population of the entire East is three times that of Europe plus America. This is a huge market. "

Mersey thought about it seriously, "Cooperative Pharmaceutical Factory, yes, I will produce technology and take up 30% of the shares, and you will leave the rest to you."

Anyway, he is an empty glove white wolf, Hardy is willing to make his own money, and it is Hardy's loss if he loses it. It's just a big deal to withdraw the technician.

"Okay, it's settled, I will let my subordinates contact Mersey Pharmaceuticals later." Hardy smiled.

It's another big business.

This is also the biggest benefit of joining a consortium. Everyone shares resources and grows together. How can small businesses that go on their own fight this behemoth.

The party continues,

A group of men came to San Francisco’s most luxurious golf course to play. This course is also owned by Bank of America. Today, no outsiders are accepted, only members of the consortium participate.

Dinner again in the evening,

The party didn't end until nine o'clock in the evening.

Throughout the party, no woman appeared, only business and politics.

This is the real high-end party.

The kind of party where a bunch of beautiful women seems to be lively, but in fact it is really just for fun, and there is no big deal on that occasion.

......

Back at the station, Hardy smiled and said to Andy: "How do I feel that things are getting more and more, I can't get out of San Francisco for a month and a half."

Andy smiled and said, "But your gains are also huge."

The harvest in this month and a half is indeed very big.

With Wells Fargo Bank, Hardy Group has the financial core and becomes a member of the California Consortium, which will further its power in California in the future.

By the way, several businesses were negotiated.

Acquired shares of PepsiCo and established a pharmaceutical factory in Hong Kong in cooperation with Mersey Pharmaceutical Factory.

Each of these things is a great cause for others, but for Hardy it is just one sentence.

This is the advantage of relying on huge resources.

The consortium is the resource pool. Everyone injects resources into the pool and at the same time harvests resources in the pool to promote mutual benefit and mutual benefit.

Of course

There are also disputes within the consortium, so be careful that the people in the consortium are looking at your property. The consortium is not a paradise, it is more like a group of beasts gathering together to hunt. Don't forget that these guys next to you are all beasts.

The next day.

Several new casinos were sitting together again, and Meyer came to San Francisco from Los Angeles. At first he was the promoter, but now he is reduced to a foil.

Looking at Hardy,

He has heard that Hardy officially joined the California consortium last night, and dozens of rich and powerful people held an initiation reception for him.

Hardy's wealth and status have far surpassed him.

Last year.

That is, last year, Hardy was still a young man he was optimistic about, and now, he has quickly grown into the largest group leader in Los Angeles.

Giannini presided over the meeting. He looked at everyone present and said with a smile: "Now let's discuss the issue of casino shares."

After speaking, he first looked at Hardy: "Hadi said at the beginning that he wants to retain 20% of the shares, right?"

Hardy nodded.

"As for the remaining few, the allocation is as follows after negotiation, MGM 10%, Mersey Pharmaceuticals 10%, Crocker Agricultural Company 15%, PepsiCo 7%, Lockheed Aircraft Manufacturing Company 10%. Bank of America 28% ."

Meyer had always wanted to be the leader of the new casino, but he did not expect that in the end there was only 10% left. After the news was made known to the big capital, things were no longer under his control, and now he is completely reduced to a follower.

In fact, he was already considered lucky and was not completely kicked out.

Giannini continued:

"There is also the management problem. In the future, the new casino will continue to be hosted by Hardy, so everyone is okay?"

Everyone agrees.

"Hadi put forward a condition that everyone needs to sign an agreement. Before the casino has suffered a major loss, the management power belongs to him. Other families cannot intervene in the casino operation. If there is a serious loss problem, the shareholders will take back the management power and re-select the CEO. , Do you have any opinions?"

Some people agree that they invest to make money. Like Lockheed, they only build airplanes but don't know how to operate casinos.

Some people hesitated a little, but still agreed. After all, the casino might not be able to operate well without Hardy.

"Next is the question of management equity. After the final calculation, the management equity is 12% of the total equity. Do you have any opinions?" Janini looked at everyone.

The management stocks here only have the right to distribute dividends, which is 12% of the total profit. The annual net profit excludes the dividends of the management stocks, and the rest is the shareholder's income.

Some people think there are more management stocks, but since Bank of America has agreed, others have no objection.

"The last one, what's the name of the casino?" Janini said.

Meyer was a little sad.

He had already planned the name of the casino at the beginning. It was called "MGM Grand Hotel", which was also a publicity for MGM, but now that he has become a minority shareholder, he naturally does not dare to mention the name again.

"Hadi, do you have any ideas?" Janini looked at Hardy and asked.

Hardy thought for a while, "How about Caesar Palace?"

"Caesar Palace Hotel, Caesar Palace Casino, I think this name is very nice." David Mersey said.

Everyone else thinks this name is good.

The name of the casino is so decided.

Then everyone discussed some details, such as the design direction of the casino, business conditions, etc. Hardy also told everyone how he plans to develop Las Vegas. Everyone felt that Hardy's plan was very good.

Especially in the form of TV lottery draw + telephone proxy casting, more and more diverse lottery activities were carried out, and everyone expressed their support.

Everyone is more and more confident about the profitability of casinos in the future.

When the matter was finalized, the butler brought champagne and everyone toasted together, wishing business prosperous, and the lawyers who came with him quickly settled the contract, and finally everyone signed the agreement to complete the formal contract.

The Caesar Palace Hotel was officially born from this moment.

When David Mersey and Hardy clinked glasses, they whispered: "Your actions are really fast. I asked someone to go to the pharmaceutical factory yesterday. I have signed the letter and can pick up the goods at any time."

"Thank you then."

"It's nothing, but I expect you to make a fortune in the casino." David Mersey smiled.

"No problem, I'm good at casino things." Hardy smiled.

"They are already negotiating on the construction of a penicillin plant in Hong Kong. The estimated investment is US$1.2 million. As long as the construction is fast enough, it can be put into operation in half a year."

The two had just chatted a few words, and another person walked up beside him, Robert Gross, the helm of Lockheed.

Robert Gross is sixty years old this year, with blond hair and looking very energetic. He smiled and said hello to Hardy, "What more?"

"I'm talking about a small business, I plan to build a penicillin factory." Hardy said.

Penicillin used to be very mysterious. Now, after several years of development, the factory can produce it on a large scale. It's nothing too special. Robert Gross didn't care at all. He asked Hardy for his own purpose.

"Hadi, I also have a small business I want to talk to you~www.readwn.com~What kind of business?" Hardy is a little curious, and he doesn't sell arms. What are you talking to me, shouldn't you talk to the military? .

"Hadi, your HD airline, do you need passenger and cargo planes? Lockheed also produces passenger planes and cargo planes. The L-049 constellation has excellent performance. Are you interested?" Robert Gross asked with a smile. Tao.

Hardy smiled and shook his head, "I'm sorry, I don't need it for the time being."

Hardy simply refused.

His batch of planes were bought from the military at very low prices. The purchase of Lockheed planes must be at the market price, and it is different from the previous types of planes. This is inconsistent with Hardy's concept of low-cost aviation and general-purpose aircraft parts.

A disappointed expression appeared on Robert Gross's face.
