But I quickly dispelled the extravagant hopes in my mind.
Just kidding, how much capital is needed to run a casino! Do I have that capital now? Do I have that much power? Open a casino? Can you afford to open a casino if you don't have ridiculous strength
I'm afraid that in another fifty years, I may not be able to reach the level of being a casino business in Las Vegas!
This is not a circle that you can get in if you have money! Am I influential in American political circles? Do I have influence in the underworld in the United States? Don't dream... These are too far away, beautiful but unreachable!
Instead, I let Mr. Yang Er get 15% of my Huaxing company's shares... Will he take this as an opportunity to intervene in the smuggling business I control? His family, in my opinion, is still a colossus! Among other things, I just controlled a gang in a city. My annual capital is only tens of millions, at most hundreds of millions... How much money does a big family have? You can kill me with money! I'm not on the same level as them!
It's easy to let him in now, but if we fall out in the future, it will be difficult to drive him out!
After thinking about it carefully, I looked at Mr. Yang Er very carefully, and said slowly: "I'm sorry, your asking price is too high... I calculated that I can only give up 10% of the shares at most. My bottom line is over. And..." I gritted my teeth and said, "For this 10% stake, in addition to the 1% stake in your casino as a condition, you also have to pay part of the cash to buy it."
I didn't ask him to give me more shares in the casino, because I knew that was impossible, and... to be honest, it was useless to give me. My current power, the casino is not something people of my level can touch.
Mr. Yang Er was slightly surprised, this time I finally saw a trace of emotional fluctuation in his eyes, but it was just a flash...
Hell, I finally know, who did Yang Wei learn from to control his emotions!
"To be honest, I'm really surprised." Mr. Yang Er said with a smile: "Do you know how much my newly opened casino is worth? Well, your current casino is located in downtown Vancouver and only rents a few offices." How much is the shell company worth? But you proposed not only exchanging equity, but also asking me to pay some cash? God, you really surprised me."
I remained calm and said slowly: "But I think you will definitely agree, don't you?"
"Well..." Yang Er thought for a moment: "Well, I can pay you 10 million US dollars, but the shares must be 15%. You must understand, my family's capital injection, which is tantamount to making you a An ally of the Clover family. Do you understand the meaning of this identity?"
"I understand very well." I also had a smile on my face, but without showing any weakness, I quickly said: "Only 10%, use 1% of your casino shares, but the cash payment must be doubled at least! Twenty million cash!"
"Twenty million cash?" He laughed, "Twenty million cash, I can open ten trading companies like yours in Vancouver."
"But without me, you can't even buy or sell a penny of smuggled goods." I said quickly: "This is my bottom line."
Yang Er sighed: "Cash subsidy is not a problem, I have to ask for 15% of the shares."
I feel my heart beating wildly! At the same time, I gritted my teeth: "Okay! Thirty million dollars in cash! One percent of the casino's shares. I'll give you five percent of Huaxing! But I have one additional condition!"
"What additional conditions?"
I didn't shy away from Yang Er's eyes, and stared directly into his eyes: "Within three years, you are not allowed to sell or transfer 15% of your shares in any form! Moreover, within five years, if If you want to transfer 15% of yours, then under the same conditions, I have the right of first purchase! That's all!"
As soon as I finished speaking, I clearly saw Mr. Yang Er's eyes that were originally calm as water, suddenly burst into a strange look in an instant! ! That kind of gaze enveloped me instantly, as if carrying a power that shocked me! He seems to want to see through my heart!
"Okay!" Yang Er suddenly laughed, this time his eyes were full of smiles: "I haven't seen such an interesting young man like you for a long time! Deal!"
I noticed it, the way he looked at me didn't hide the admiration in it, but at the same time, there was also a bit of a faint edge!
deal...
There was no joy in my heart at all. Indeed, I had an extra 30 million dollars in cash in my pocket, and I also got 1% of the shares in a casino in Las Vegas. With just this 1% of the shares, the annual dividends are enough for me A millionaire now.
But I couldn't be happy at all... because, it seemed that I opened the door of my own house, and then welcomed in from the outside a... "ally" who was much, much stronger than me!
I don't know if I do it now, will I regret it in the future.
But at least for now, I have no choice, no choice.
"Chen Yang, come, let's have a drink." Yang Er smiled, as if mocking himself: "God knows, I will use 30 million US dollars plus 1% of the casino's shares to exchange for a company with a market value of less than one million. Fifteen percent of the small company, if this deal gets out, someone will think I'm crazy."
"But with this 15%, you can have a net profit of at least 15 million a year. If you think the price is not worth it... Then after three years, I am willing to use 100 million U.S. dollars to buy it back from your hands 15% of the shares." I laughed.
But Yang Er blinked, looked at me and said with a smile: "No, no, this is three years later, isn't it? At least for now, we have to raise our glasses and congratulate us on our first happy cooperation."
"Cheers." I swallowed the wine in one gulp, but there was some bitterness in my mouth.
At this time, there was a light knock on the door outside, and Yang Er frowned slightly: "Come in."
The subordinate of Yang Er who led me in stood at the door and said slowly: "Sir, something happened in the casino below, please come down and take a look if it is convenient for you."
Yang Er looked as usual, and smiled: "Got it."
He turned his head to look at me, and suddenly smiled and said, "Oh, by the way, just take this opportunity, you go down with me and take a look... After all, you also own a part of this casino here. Go and see Check out your new casino."
Without hesitation, I nodded.
Yang Er seemed to be treating an old friend with an attitude, and pulled my arm out of the lounge. We walked outside one after another, but I saw Qiao Qiao sitting on a high chair from a long distance, looking bored. Holding a wine glass, he strolled around looking around, looking a little impatient. Seeing me, her eyes lit up and she immediately jumped off the chair.
"Xiao Wu, where have you been?" She walked up to me.
I smiled: "Mr. Yang and I just talked about something, um, this is Mr. Yang Er, Yang Wei's uncle."
This time Qiao Qiao didn't mess around, she greeted Yang Er in a very ladylike manner, and even smiled dignifiedly without showing her teeth.
I thought for a while: "Can I go to the restaurant with my friends?"
Yang Er casually smiled and said, "Of course, don't ask me. Remember, this is your casino too."
Immediately after we came out, four people followed Yang Er, and Qiao Qiao and I also entered the elevator with Yang Er, and came to the big casino under the hotel.
Stepping out of the elevator, I couldn't help but sigh inwardly.
It's not that I have never been to a casino. When I was in China, I also went to the casino controlled by brother Huan... But here, the scale is at least ten times larger than that casino!
Come in is at least hundreds of slot machines, also known as slot machines. Immediately there were all kinds of gambling tables, large and small, dazzling, and all kinds of gambling were complete. Just because I saw such a casino outside, it has at least a thousand square meters! ! And there is more than one hall here!
It's obviously not the first time for Jojo to come to this kind of large casino, and I even know that it's not the first time for her to come to Las Vegas. But after she got out of the elevator, she deliberately fell behind Yang Er with me. She pulled me and asked in a low voice, "What did he say just now? This is your casino too. What do you mean?"
I sighed: "This casino now owns a part of my shares."
Qiao Qiao's eyes lit up: "Really? You actually want to start a casino business?"
I immediately drowned out her excitement with a pot of cold water: "I only have a pitiful one percent of the shares."
Then I sighed: "Okay, I'll talk to you in detail when I get back."
Because Yang Er had scratched his head and looked at me, and said with a smile: "Are you interested in going in with me to see interesting things?"
I followed immediately: "What's interesting?"
Yang Er shrugged his shoulders and said indifferently: "Whenever a new casino opens, other casinos will naturally come to 'call' and 'call'. This is an old rule."
Although what he said was plain, I could hear a trace of unrest in his voice!
call
Got it, probably came here to mess things up!
