The more interviews I received, the more formulaic the answers to the questions became.

A lot of time is talking nonsense, which is a little less interesting and at the same time, it can avoid a lot of unnecessary trouble.

Speaking of the words "taken out of context", the reporters of the major newspapers are definitely experts, Han Chudong spent a lot of energy and money to make people not treat themselves as alternatives, but he didn't want to ruin the image he had worked so hard to build because a certain sentence was inappropriate, and also ruined the long-term efforts of the public relations department.

The public relations department has positioned him as "a minority who has made a fortune because of hard work and intelligence, and a model for young people to learn", but people are generally more interested in the news that he got into fights in high school, only has a high school degree, and often hangs in bars, which makes Han Chudong have to be more cautious, especially as a Chinese-American.

As the reporter asked, he noted that he was quite friendly because he provided them with a bathing place and gave them clean clothes.

At this time, he continued to ask: "So Mason, what is your view on the recent economic situation, I mean the stock market, employment rate, international exchange rate, international trade, such as a big businessman like you, and also single-handedly created Mason Private Equity Fund, which has raised a huge amount of 200 million US dollars, you should know a lot about these, right?"

Even if you don't understand it, you have to understand it when you hear this kind of question, otherwise it is tantamount to publicly saying that your investment level is very poor.

Han Chudong took a sip of coffee, coughed dryly, and said: "In the context of economic stagflation and stock market crash, the economic situation is of course worse, I think the official intervention in the economy is not enough, and more effective stimulus methods should be adopted, such as reducing tariffs and other tax rates such as enterprises and individuals, stimulating consumption, increasing liquidity in society, and lowering the threshold for corporate mergers and acquisitions."

The recent problems have a lot to do with the Keynesian economic philosophy, which cannot adapt to the current environment, and the trade barriers between countries should be further reduced, reducing taxes, stimulating the economy, creating jobs, and increasing the economy and wealth through the increase of economic and wealth, but on the contrary, increasing national tax revenues under the premise of low tax rates, and increasing the wealth of the masses. ”

"You mean Keynesianism has failed?"

"I didn't say that, but the situation is deteriorating from the current situation, which shows that something is wrong and that more effective economic ideas should be sought in reflection. Han Chudong habitually avoided topic traps.

There are now more than 20 top economics students in the Mason United Group, as well as many external consultants, who collate various data and materials together and submit them to Han Chudong, of course, he knows more, such as social welfare, excessive official spending and other issues, all deliberately did not mention, otherwise there will be a suspicion of "robbing the poor and helping the rich".

Although the widening gap between the rich and the poor is a general trend, he does not want to be a villain, so he only talks about today's economic predicament at the macro level.

Dane was about to continue to ask, but after contacting the hotel manager, a bodyguard hurriedly walked over, bent down and said something in Han Chudong's ear.

The bodyguard told him that Han Chudong had tied up his son and stuffed a bloody book into the crack of the door.

Suddenly learned the news, the first thought in my mind was not to believe it, thinking that so many people in the family were not tied, why did they tie up Han Yigun, who was in charge of the SWAT team?

With a frown, he stared at the bodyguard and asked, "Really?"

The other party replied: "Your mother called the hotel, there should be no fake." ”

Looking at the hotel manager with a nervous look, Han Chudong suddenly got up, stretched out his hand and said to the Dane reporter: "I'm sorry, I'm in a bit of a hurry now, if I want to continue to make another appointment." ”

“...... Okay, this should be enough just now. The Dane reporter was quite curious, vaguely thinking that something should be wrong, but he didn't ask, and added when shaking hands: "Then see you next time you have time, thank you for your clothes and coffee." ”

Han Chudong's mind was obviously not on him, so he walked directly to the hotel manager and asked him what his mother had said.

Leave behind the Dane reporter and the videographer named Michael.

Michael and his companion looked at each other and whispered, "I think I heard it...... The word kidnapping?"

Reporter Dane was stunned for a moment when he heard this, and then his eyes slowly widened.

——————————

The manager of the Hilton Hotel is a middle-aged British man, with a London accent quite authentic, two days ago Han Chudong took Mochizuki Kiko to check in, and it was this manager who helped to do it, and personally helped them deliver their luggage to the room.

The matter is urgent, and when Han Chudong asked, he told: "To be honest, I don't know if it's your mother, just now the front desk attendant received a call, and a woman pointed out that she was looking for you, and she also knew your room number, saying that her father could not be contacted, and received a blackmail letter." I came to you as soon as I received the news, so I don't know if it's real yet, and the phone shouldn't have hung up, so please here. ”

In a hurry, Han Chudong asked, "Do you know the content of the blackmail letter?"

"I didn't ask, I felt the need to tell you first. ”

"Thank you, please keep it a secret for the time being, don't talk about it to anyone, and please help tell those employees who already know the news, don't leak it to the outside world, OK?"

"Of course, I'll have a short meeting later......"

Come to the hotel front desk.

Several front desk girls were staring at Han Chudong, and one of them decisively handed him the phone receiver, Han Chudong took it and put it to his ear, frowned and asked in Chinese: "Mom?"

"Hey, son, your dad has been kidnapped, and he asked us for 20 million US dollars in bearer bonds! If we can't find anyone, I will ...... with your grandparents," his voice was quite excited, and he cried as he spoke.

It was indeed his mother's voice, at this time, Han Chudong didn't have time to appease, took a deep breath and asked, "Did you call the police, are you sure my dad was kidnapped?"

Maybe it's because I'm already confused, and I'm just crying on the other end of the phone.

This made Han Chudong very irritable, the most important thing at the moment was to get the person back first, hang up the phone decisively, ask for the phone book from the secretary, and call the mayor of Los Angeles after rummaging, and also call Arthur's assistant,

After briefly saying the matter, let them not call the police for now, go to their own house to help think of a way, and by the way, also contact the airline and ask them to arrange a flight back to Los Angeles now.

......

By the time we arrived at the airport from the hotel, United Airlines had already dispatched a passenger plane on a temporary basis.

Before getting on the plane, I called home, and the person who answered the phone was Arthur's assistant, who lived in downtown Los Angeles, very close to Han Chudong's house.

Han Chudong told him: "I have already arranged a flight, and it will take about six or seven hours to get home, you can read the ransom note to me first, they want 20 million US dollars in bearer bonds?"
