"Father, I have sent people to conduct a full investigation on them. After their casino is completed, it will be a second-tier casino at best and does not pose a direct threat to us." Mo Miao looked at Mo Miao seriously at this time. Yan said.
"Son, don't be confused by the superficial illusions." Mo Yan gently pushed the stack of documents on the table, then said meaningfully, "According to the description in the documents, the impact of this Rock Group is amazing. , the famous Ma family in the capital was brought down by them. This is not something that ordinary people can do. You know, a few years ago, their Luo family was not even qualified to enter the capital. But now, they The Rock Group and the Rock family have already reached cooperative relationships with the Song family, the Han family and the Kang family, and have even formed a mutually beneficial cross-border cooperation relationship with the Italian Stu Company. If I If your guess is correct... this time the Luo family came to Omen to open a casino, and they reached some kind of secret agreement with the Italian Death Map International Company in private."
Mo Yan's son Mo Miao naturally knew about this, but... In this case, why did the Luo family open a second-tier casino in the first place
According to their information, the Lowe Group should be able to open a large-scale gaming center comparable to the Portuguese Casino. Wouldn't that be more in line with their attitude of always being ready to soar
As if he could see what Mo Miao was thinking, Mo Yan smiled softly, lit the cigar in his hand, puffed out the smoke and said, "Son, I know what kind of doubts you have in your heart. You must be thinking about this. The Rock Group's background and background are so powerful. Since we already have the ability to enter Austria, why not do it in one step?"
No one knows his son better than his father.
Mo Miao nodded seriously when he heard this.
Father Mo Yan changed his mind and continued: "Because... the decision-makers of the Rock Group are smart enough. Son, think about it carefully. Before we opened the casino, we opened a big hotel first. Later, when we had enough funds, we started Starting to engage in the gaming industry, we are fully qualified to open a top gaming center in Austria. However, we originally chose to open a second-tier gaming center. My child, do you know why?"
Mo Miao shook his head slightly. Regarding this reason, his father Mo Yan had never said anything before.
In fact, Mo Miao has never thought about this issue.
Now that his father brought it up, Mo Miao felt confused: Yes, why
Mo Yan looked at his son's puzzled expression and had no intention of selling it off. He immediately said: "Because we need to develop steadily. First, we cannot eat a big fat man in one bite. At the beginning, we were newcomers to this industry, regardless of industry regulations. We still don’t know the specific development rules, so we made a compromise choice to develop from the second line. This can not only observe the market, but also help us improve our own shortcomings. Gradually, we will have a mature enough business model and means of doing things. After that, we will have enough capital to step into the front line. Whether it is for competition or defense, we can do our best."
After a slight pause, Mo Yan looked at the gradually enlightened expression on his son's face, and continued: "Second, this is a way of showing weakness. If we, as newcomers, open a restaurant that is strong enough to compete with others at the beginning, To the extent that they can compete with the top players in the industry, this undoubtedly arouses the majesty of the highest being in this industry. Son, you must always know that no matter what industry they are in, they are relatively exclusive. In normal times, every company in the industry All forces will compete to a certain extent, but when a new competitor emerges that they take seriously enough, their hostility complex and front will reach a consensus and unity of situation as soon as possible, arousing the consensus of the industry. Hostility is definitely not conducive to the development of an emerging force that only has a shell but does not have enough depth. Now, if I explain it this way, can you understand it?"
After Mo Miao heard what his father said, he suddenly felt enlightened. He took a deep breath, shook his head and sighed secretly.
After a long while, he said: "Father, let's put it this way, the person in charge of the Rock Group and the planner of their entry into the Macau gaming industry is really a talent. He can analyze the situation so thoroughly."
"Of course this is, otherwise, how could the Rock Group become the top entity in China's business community in just a few years?"
As he spoke, Mo Yan had an obviously playful smile on his face.
"So... Father, what should we do? In my opinion, it is best not to allow them to grow up. If they achieve their expected plan, it will be very troublesome for us. The Rock Group's The foundation is quite strong, and judging from their experience, their person in power is a very ambitious person. Once they succeed, it will be a very heavy blow and obstacle to our Mo family. To put it bluntly, It sounds good, it is very likely that our Mo family’s number one position in the gaming industry in Austria will be threatened! We may even be squeezed out by them!"
Maybe others don't know, but the Mo family knows very well that the gambling industry in Omen has developed to an outrageous level.
Every year, the gaming industry alone generates a total of 1** billion Austrian coins from tax revenue! It’s almost the level of more than 156 billion Chinese coins! This is a new high set in 2005. Now that three or four years have passed, it seems even sharper.
As for the taxation of the gaming industry, the relevant departments in Austria stipulate that the tax to be paid by gaming is about 10% of the income. In other words, as of 2008, in the past three years, the average gaming revenue was about 200 billion per year. Total revenue.
The tax alone has reached such a level. One can imagine how profitable the gambling industry is! Just a small fraction is equivalent to the gross national product of a backward African country for one year! !
Among all the casinos in Macau, the Mo family accounts for 50 to 60% of the total revenue of the Macau gaming industry! What is this concept? ! !
This level of ratio is entirely due to their identity and status as the No. 1 gambling family in the Mo family! How could the Mo family give up such a strong status and identity
In the past, many people who were enemies of Lorraine, or were preparing to be enemies of Lorraine, made a mistake. That is to despise Lorraine, or to regard Lorraine's steady development as a sign of weakness in some sense. Therefore, those people later paid a very heavy price!
The Mo family has been running rampant in Austria for so many years, but they have never looked down upon any enemy or those who would become enemies.
Just like Mo Yan now, although Lorraine's current threat level is not even as good as a toothless snake that suddenly fell into the crowd, Mo Yan has already treated the Luo Group as a dragon emerging from the water. .
This is the mentality a strong person should have.
Therefore, the Mo family is strong, and Mo Yan is strong.
It's a pity that among the strong... there are even more powerful ones.
They have never really fought against Lorraine, and they... don't know how terrifying Lorraine really is.
"Son, do you still remember what I ordered these days?" Mo Yan suddenly said after pondering for a long time.
Mo Miao said: "Father, are you talking about...about the Rock Group's search for the croupier?"
"Yes, we have been trying to lure away those capable retail gambling masters, but we just don't want the Rock Group to find them. - This Rock Group is still very conscious. They know that even if they keep a low profile, they still can't escape us. His business rules are routine gambling games. He knows that only a dealer who is strong enough to control the casino can bring prestige and stability to the casino. To put it simply, a dealer can even influence the fate of a newly opened casino. So, we need to put some effort into this.”
"Put some effort in? Father, haven't we already succeeded? If the current situation continues, it is impossible for the Rock Group to find a dealer who is strong enough to control the market. What else do we need to do?"
"Haha..." Mo Yan smiled mysteriously, "As a father, you have your own clever plans."
… …
Typhoons are a common occurrence in Omen.
The weather here is unpredictable, and people here even carry an umbrella with them whenever they go out. When the sun shines, it can be used as a parasol, and when it rains, it can be used as an umbrella. One thing has two uses.
There seems to be a saying circulating here: "The weather in Omen is the heart of a woman."
Today, Lorraine has completely understood this. The weather was originally pretty good, but suddenly a small typhoon came. After the typhoon passed, the weather immediately improved. But as soon as evening came, the rain began to pour down.
And it was pouring rain.
Boom! ! —Crash, lala, lala! —
A burst of thunder, mixed with the rain in the dark night, resounded throughout the world.
When Lorraine, Liu Wanchuan and Lin Jiadong returned home, the road was already slippery.
"Crack."
After opening the door, Lorraine was about to enter, but Liu Wanchuan and Lin Jiadong behind him showed no intention of entering.
"Brother Lin, please come into the house. Jiadong and I have some other things to do!" Liu Wanchuan suddenly said.
Lorraine was surprised for a while, and turned around and asked, "Huh? What happened so suddenly, why didn't I know?"
Liu Wanchuan and Lin Jiadong looked at each other and smiled together. Among them, Lin Jiadong gave Lorraine a very intriguing look and grinned: "Hey, it's a private matter, it's a private matter. Don't worry, we will be very restrained."
This sentence makes people think a lot, and precisely because of this, there is no need for too much explanation.
Lorraine hesitated for a moment, then smiled helplessly: "Good boy, it seems that you have really learned bad things after staying in Omen for so long."~
