Chapter 234: Candlelight Dinner

In the nick of time, Li Qingyuan and Ivanka joined hands in 10023 Restaurant in the Trump International Hotel Building, where there is a famous French restaurant in the United States, Jean Georges.

Jean Georges is a three-Michelin-starred restaurant owned by Jean Georges, one of the world's most prominent chefs and inducted into the American Culinary Hall of Fame.

The Trump Organization's young proprietor is here tonight, and as a tenant of Trump Tower, Jean-Georges will cook dinner for both of them.

Ivanka, who entered the restaurant, took off her coat, and a milky white dress with a bandeau fell to the ground, and the tight-fitting long skirt showed her delicate curves, lined with the choppy upper circumference, which instantly focused all the eyes of the audience on her.

In Li Qingyuan's aesthetic concept, Ivanka's dress tonight is not as good as that of the day, and the traditional concept of the Chinese people makes it easier for him to accept subtle and restrained dressing, if Ling Yanran is wearing such clothes, he will not be able to accept it.

Chinese cuisine and French cuisine are recognized as the top cuisines in the world, and Li Qingyuan eats Chinese cuisine every day, but he has never had the opportunity to taste French food before, not because he can't afford it, but because he thinks that no matter how delicious the French meal is, it is not as delicious as a bowl of egg fried rice.

The cumbersome process of the French meal is also criticized by Li Qingyuan, a dinner alone has to serve four kinds of alcohol, appetizers, soups, fish dishes, meat dishes, etc., and it takes four or five hours to get a meal.

Li Qingyuan is secretly complaining, but this is the romantic place of the French, ordinary girls really eat this set, and it has become a matter of course to roll up the sheets after dinner, I have to say that the French do have a hand in fishing for horses.

Li Qingyuan gentlemanly opened a seat for Ivan Kara and invited her to sit down.

In the ambiguous dim environment, a candle is lit on the dining table, revealing a different atmosphere, and Ivanka's ears are shining with star-like diamond earrings, which reflect Ivanka's intoxicating red lips when they shake.

"The candlelight dinner in the French restaurant, the romance of the woman's imagination blooms at this moment, and I feel so lucky!" Li Qingyuan's expression was in a trance, and his words seemed to be emotional and like a compliment to Ivanka.

The praise made Ivanka's smile like a rhododendron blooming all over the mountains in spring, and the diamond earrings that sparkled like stars lost their luster in an instant, and her red lips said lightly: "Shouldn't it be my luck?"

Li Qingyuan shook his head and sighed: "I have never taken Yanran and Yeyue to a romantic French dinner, and I have never even celebrated their birthdays, I am a derelict husband, but they are both married to me, aren't they lucky? Happiness comes so easily!"

"Maybe I should congratulate them on their luck!" Ivanka said jealously.

"Happiness should be defined by yourself, you will find a more suitable other half!" Li Qingyuan understood Ivanka's current mood.

Ivanka was silent for a moment, then changed her mood and said, "Let's talk about tonight's dinner!"

"I've never tasted French food before, so I need to ask you, a connoisseur, for advice. ”

"I'm not a Frenchman, I don't know much about this, so let's taste it together. ”

In the spirit of the standard foodie's book

quality, Li Qingyuan still has to admit that the French meal is indeed delicious, and the only regret is that he can't eat enough.

After paying the food money of ordinary Chinese people for a year's salary, he took an extended Cadillac Li Qingyuan to escort Ivanka back to his villa, and then returned to Morgan's house at 1 o'clock in the morning.

The study was brightly lit, the door was open, and Morgan was dozing off on the couch, apparently waiting for him to return.

Li Qingyuan patted him lightly on the shoulder and shouted, "Morgan!"

Morgan opened his eyes and closed them again, the light was too harsh, he didn't get used to it for a while, he covered his eyes with his hands to get used to it, sat up, reached out and picked up the half-smoked cigar on the ashtray and lit it.

"I almost thought you weren't coming back in the evening!"

Morgan's words choked Li Qingyuan half to death, and secretly begged that my brother's will was strong enough, otherwise he wouldn't have been caught by you.

"This is the difference between Chinese and Americans!"

Morgan shook his head and replied maliciously: "In America you would be considered sexually impotent!"

This time he was really choked by Morgan's words, and he didn't even know what to say to refute it.

Pulling his hair and thinking about it for a long time, he didn't come up with any good words, so he could only comfort himself: "Fortunately, I already have two wives, otherwise I would really be despised by you." ”

"Just because you have a wife doesn't mean you're good at it, it's a fallacy!" Morgan's blows came in waves.

"It's really infuriating, with you like this uncle, it doesn't prove that I'm a normal man if I don't cheat together! You are deliberately retaliating for me for making you wait for so long, I would have let you wait for a night if I had known. ”

"Let me wait for a night, and I'll call Ling Heguan and say that you haven't returned all night!"

"Forget it, don't be, tell me the news you found out today!" Li Qingyuan got back to the point, if he continued to say this, he might not be able to help but want to hit someone.

Morgan stopped laughing and said, "If you want to buy MGM, I'm afraid it's difficult, Time Warner and Sony are the main competitors." For now, Sony has the advantage, it is doing tandem, and has contacted Providence Equity Partners, Texas Pacific Capital, Comcast, DLJ Commodity Bank Partners, Sifang Group and other corporate groups to prepare for a joint acquisition of MGM. ”

"It seems that the opponent is very strong, how much money do we need to prepare if we get involved to be sure of defeating them?" Li Qingyuan sat down next to Morgan and also lit a cigar.

"From what I've heard, Time Warner is only willing to buy MGM for $11 a share, and the Sony consortium is willing to buy it for $12, not including $2 billion in debt, of course. ”

"According to MGM's issued shares, you can actually win MGM by paying $3 billion, and counting the debt, it is almost $5 billion, which is still within an acceptable range!" Li Qingyuan pinched his chin and calculated.

"But you can't leave aside the possibility of Sony's price increase. ”

"Competition is always inevitable, now the acquisition of 'Marvel Comics' has entered the contract period, for the future development, no matter how much money has to be invested in, I believe that Oh Morgan has 'Marvel Comics' and MGM United, we will make money back tenfold and hundredfold. ”

"Whether the movie makes money or not is not within my consideration, I have to find a way to solve what you want, how much price are you prepared to pay?

letter, a quote to MGM. ”

"Cutting through the mess quickly, the $13 stock price plus the burden of all the debt, even if Sony can afford it, this price is enough to kick Time Warner out. ”

"Whoever is out of the game, you have to decide under what name you want to buy MGM. ”

"Of course, it is in the name of the investment company to acquire, but in this way, the reputation of the investment company is getting bigger and bigger, and my identity as a Chinese person is becoming more and more eye-catching, and you have to divest my shares from the investment company as soon as possible. ”

"It's too obvious to be targeted right now, and you can't hide the people at the top of the pyramid. ”

"If you can't hide it, you have to do it, which of these people doesn't hide most of their net worth under the water, and no one can hide it from anyone, and they compete for food and eat in private, just don't pull it on the table. You can do it with peace of mind, and I will take care of it. Li Qingyuan spat out a puff of smoke fiercely, and his face was a little gloomy.

Morgan was a little surprised by Li Qingyuan's transformation, what a sunny young man this nephew used to be, and he became so scheming after only a few years.

"In this case, I will transfer 60% of the shares of the investment company to the 'Xingmang' offshore company, and then add Ling and Guan to the investment company to share 10% of your shares, so that you only have 10% of the shares left, and no one will talk about it. Morgan suggested.

"Just transfer 50% of the shares to 'Starlight', and leave 10% to the company's management as an equity incentive. ”

"Well, that's great news, and I think they'll be cheering. ”

"There is no end to money in this world, and if we pay this small price now, they will double it for us in the future. Only by giving hope to employees can the company let them work hard for their lives and exert 200% or 300% efforts. ”

"I've seen you become more and more of a profiteer. ”

"No! I'm going to be the greatest entrepreneur in the world. ”

Morgan rolled his eyes, if he was shameless, nothing could stop him.

"Morgan, don't roll your eyes, turn back ten or twenty years, and you will find that I have stood on the top of the world, looking down on all beings!"

"I don't know anything else, I know that bragging about me can't compare to you!"

"If you don't believe it, you can book a flight to Los Angeles for me at dawn, and I'll show my sincerity by running it myself." ”

"I'll send a notice of acquisition tomorrow, and you can negotiate the specific price yourself. In addition, give me a copy of the documents of the two nieces and daughters-in-law, and I will get rid of the shares as soon as possible. Morgan yawned.

"Okay, that's it, you go and rest!"

The time difference between the United States and China is 12 hours, and now it is noon over there, Li Qingyuan called Guan Yeyue.

"Daughter-in-law, what are you doing?"

"You just woke up from a nap, why don't you go to sleep at night!"

"Don't be in a hurry to sleep, the American Investment Company needs to convert the shares, send me a copy of your and Yanran's passports, and in a few days the two of you will become the most famous rich woman in the world." ”

"Why are you transferring shares to us for no reason?"

"I can't tell you for a while, and I'll talk to you slowly when I go back, in a word, in order to avoid trouble in the future. ”
