֏ / ]~I.7 5A7G/YveHT Ŷ~ 5 2 f$ Q0X4 You need to find a sports team and organize a school near Las Vegas to organize a game on the weekend. Track & Field, Baseball, Basketball, Tennis, and even Golf. These competitions, which can be held on a rotational basis, will have no problem running out of weekends throughout the year. ”

If a child in the United States gets a good grade in a sports day organized by the school district, it will be of great help when going to school, so Martha thinks that this will give more opportunities for children in the area and more parents will remember Link.

Link listened to her say so much, thought for a while before nodding and saying, "Yes, but the competition had better be more formal, and some rewards can be given to the winners." ”

"It's okay to give bonuses to the winners. But I don't think it's too much. ”

Link nodded and said, "Then select some regions in several states and organize the same sports day." Winners can participate in summer camps during the holidays. Invite some famous generals to guide them. Such a reward should be enjoyed by those children. ”

Martha laughs and says, "That's a great idea. I will contact the governments of other states. ”

Link laughs, "Maybe we can also hold other literary competitions, such as painting, music and writing." Such a contest could be held on Fox. ”

"Are you going to do it nationwide or just in Washington?"

"Nationwide. The prize money doesn't have to be too high, up to $10,000. We can now hold preliminary competitions in various states, and the preliminary rounds do not need to be painted on the spot, but only need to send the paintings within the specified time, and then the selection will be made. There are two spots per state for each age group to compete in the finals at Fox. The highest, but the top 10, can all get prizes, ranging from one hundred dollars to two thousand dollars. ”

Martha listened to his idea and knew that he wanted to use the prize money to entice parents to bring their children to the competition. She nodded and said, "It may cost a lot, but it will also be a lot of publicity." However, I would suggest that all the children who participate in the competition can get a souvenir. ”

"Yes. Link said with a smile. "The name of the drawing contest is the Hannah Youth Drawing Competition. The other two, you can do it like a good name. It's best to have the competition started this year. ”

Martha couldn't help but smile. Link's daughter likes to draw, she knows, and I've heard that she does it pretty well. But naming the painting contest after her daughter is too obvious.

Although it is nationwide. But Martha felt that it was the first time that there should not be many people participating. So she thinks it should be possible to organize the competition by the end of the year. She nodded and said, "I'm trying to finish the preliminary round during the summer vacation." This is the easiest time to find judges. "It is impossible to find those famous artists as judges in the preliminary round, and the most suitable ones are the teachers of painting classes in those schools.

Martha had to remind him: "That kind of game can be expensive. Especially once the tournament becomes famous, the cost of souvenirs alone is quite a bit. ”

"A souvenir, it can be a medal, it can be a card. Something like that isn't worth much money. ”

"But what about the postage?"

When Link heard it, it really was. Souvenirs may be worth less than a dollar, but the cost of postage can be two or three times higher than the value of the souvenir itself.

"That's fine, if there are more participants, don't give it, or only give it to some of the better contestants. We just need to advertise that we don't mention this souvenir. ”

Martha smiled and shook her head when she heard his idea. But that's the solution. Although there are many minors in the United States, it is unclear what the number of participants will be. Now, in order to worry about the large number of participants in the future, I will not give souvenirs, and the promotion of these competitions is also quite unfavorable.

"So how do you classify your age?"

"In the drawing competition, the first prize for a group of five years old and below is $3,000, a group of six to ten years old is worth $6,000, and a group of eleven to fifteen years old is worth $8,000. $10,000 for a group of 15 to 18 years old. The top twenty in the latter two groups can get a spot at the Fox Summer Camp for Painting. I would invite some notable painters to guide them. ”

"This reward is perhaps more appealing to them than the bonus. It would be better if you could determine the famous painter in advance. ”

"You do the propaganda first, and I will solve this problem as soon as possible. ”

Link heard that the last few oil paintings that Alyssa painted on the farm were very well received at the European art exhibition. His fame had also risen a lot, and he thought that he might be able to contact some European painters through her. And if she is available, she can also be the main instructor of the summer camp.

"Anything else?"

"There is one more thing, the company you cooperated with Mr. Tang, the formalities have been completed. However, the management team has not yet found it. The headhunter hasn't replied to me yet. ”

"I see. Wait for the management team to confirm the reopening. Link said and stood up. "I'm going to a drinking party tonight and I'm leaving tomorrow. Call us if you have something to do. ”

“OK！”

Link went back to Bakers Avenue and went to Tiger in Texas and came back.

"Boss, I chose twelve people to send to Baker Farm, and another six people to send to Mora Manor. They'll be leaving Texas tomorrow. ”

"Are they all credible?"

The security of the oil well on the Baker Farm side was too thin, so he asked the guy who sent Tiger to Houston to send someone from the security company there, and by the way, he added some more men to himself.

"These are all people who have been rigorously tested by me and iResearch. There is certainly no problem with professionalism. ”

"I see!"

At eight o'clock in the evening, Tiger was still driving him out of the house, and he was going to a drinking party in the largest Luxor ballroom. It is said to be held for charity.

He received a phone call from Mayor Sinclair, and he agreed to attend because he happened to have something to talk to Martha.

The Grand Ballroom at the Luxor Hotel is said to be the single hotel ballroom in the world. It can hold a dance party attended by more than 6,000 people.

Since Sinclair called to invite him, the party was of course official. Link saw the poster outside the ballroom and thought it was probably a donation for children with leukemia. Outside the banquet hall, there were several signature walls on which many names had been signed, and he had signed one of them at random. Tiger and the others were also allowed to follow, perhaps because there was too much space inside.

The venue of today's cocktail party was very bright, and he came in to say hello to some people, and Sinclair came over with a smile: "Thank you for coming, Link!" Link is arguably the richest man in Nevada, and if they didn't show up for this charity party, it would inevitably be two points inferior.

Link shook hands with him and said, "Today's reception is to raise money for children with leukemia?"

"That's just one of the themes. Sinclair lowered her voice. It is also intended to raise funds for specialized leukemia research institutes. So there will be two donations tonight. "He's reminding Link. Donate more slowly tonight. Don't donate too much at once.

Link said thank you. Then he went to the president of a casino, and said goodbye to Sinclair, and he was going to say hello to the president of the casino. Regardless of Carrick's affairs, the other party is sincere in giving face or forced to give face. He should have gone and said hello. That would be if he took it for granted, and it would only make other people hate him.

He approached the presidents of all the casinos where Carrick had made a thousand trips and thanked them one by one. He didn't know what effect his gesture would have. But he has done what he has to do. The money was returned to them, and he personally thanked the other party for giving face. If they want to make a move on Carrick in the future, then don't blame him for coming back and winning their casino.

There are a lot of people here today. There are celebrities from all over the United States, celebrities from Nevada, and bosses in Las Vegas who can make a little money.

But that still can't fill the ballroom. Of course, the banquet hall was not empty. More than half of the area inside is covered with posters.

Perhaps because today is a charity cocktail party, and the cocktail party needs media publicity, all kinds of food are ordinary food, and the cooking is not exquisite, and there are no luxury goods. For these people, this kind of food is not attractive. Even the red wine or champagne on offer is only a mid-to-low-end wine.

Link may not have pinched the casino, the lifeblood of Nevada's economy. But he pinched another lifeblood of Las Vegas – water. And with his current fame, it's really not easy for people over the age of fifteen in the United States to find someone who has never heard of him at all.

He was the focus of attention everywhere during the reception.

After the reception began, Sinclair took the stage to say a few words calling attention to leukemia, "especially to children with leukemia," and finally suggested that everyone look around the posters that were placed on the other side of the ballroom.

There were more than 1,000 people in the whole venue, and it really took a lot of time to go around. Link was waiting, and Tommy Cocklain saw him, so he leaned up to him and whispered, "I've heard about Guthlet." ”

"What's included?" Link asked softly.

"All of them, including your buying of the Guslettes' shares, changing the name of the company, and evicting certain people from the company. ”

Link laughed and said, "It seems that not only Las Vegas has no secrets, but all of Neva. ”

"I don't know if I don't know, the sign of the Guthret branch in Las Vegas has been torn down. It is said that it will be given a new name. How could something like that go unnoticed?"

Link didn't expect Benedict to move so fast. He smiled and nodded, "Whether I change the name of the company to the brand of Lin's Mall depends on the decision of the company's management team." ”

Cockeline smiled, not intending to comment on the matter, "I thought you were just trying to bring down Guslet. ”

"I know that I will not do a loss-making business. He saw the crowd in front of him move. "Let's go along. ”

The posters were all smiling faces of children, some of them wearing quarantine gowns, but most of them were bareheaded, both men and women.

Seeing these large paintings, the crowd walking slowly was very quiet. Link and Cocklain didn't speak again. He has to say that the photographer is at least very careful in choosing photos. When the children in these pictures look at you with a pair of pure eyes, they will always touch a certain part of your heart.

When they re-emerged from the other exit, he found that the atmosphere in the banquet hall seemed to have a pent-up sadness and sympathy. Of course, there are also many people talking in whispers.
