Chapter 501: Running for president
This yellow-haired old man is the chairman of Trump Real Estate, Ivan. Trump's father - Donald. Trump, a guy who is more powerful than the traverser. Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info
Trump Real Estate plummeted in the 80s, and the banks had to allow him to suspend some loan interest payments when he generously lent a huge amount of money to Trump's banking group, realizing that if Trump declared bankruptcy, he would not only lose interest, but also might not get back the principal.
A syndicate of banks oversees Trump's real estate until he can afford to pay his debts. At that time, his lunch was not allowed to exceed $10 according to the U.S. Bankruptcy Board.
Mr. Trump is not handsome, but his intelligence and humor have made him one of America's most famous single aristocrats, dealing with debts while continuing to carry out his meticulous investment plan, repossessing real estate supervised by a syndicate of banks. In '99, Trump was once again active in real estate, casinos, entertainment, sports and transportation. By this time, Trump's net worth had exceeded $3 billion.
"Why don't you go to the VIP box? I'm also a billionaire, don't be afraid of losing, you can win back if you lose. Donald said proudly.
Du Jiayi knows very well that Donald's mouth is not guarded, and he can say whatever he wants. There are many tycoons in the world, and Trump is characterized by his style of speaking and acting, and his private life is quite interesting, Trump has not only been the cover character of the American "Business Week", but also appeared in the headlines of the best-selling gossip magazine "National Inquirer" in the United States.
"I don't like it very much."
Donald was stunned, he didn't expect Du Jiayi to say this.
"Haha~ Sure enough, he has a personality, and he looks like me!" Donald laughed.
Money is everywhere in casinos, and as long as there is money, any service can be provided. In the VIP area on the top floor, Donald cut a cigar and lay back in his chair.
"We are also partners, I wonder what you think of me and Trump Real Estate?"
Donald's question made the corners of Du Jiayi's eyes twitch.
Trump, who lives a luxurious life, should be the most ostentatious rich man in the United States. The doors of his Fifth Avenue apartment in New York are gilded in gold to show how different he is.
The United States is dotted with high-rise buildings and yachts that bear his name. Trump is a popular figure in the news media because he is never short of topics.
Such a wanton person, Du Jiayi really doesn't know whether to tell the truth or say something to fool the past.
Donald also felt that this topic seemed too abrupt, and asked a different way:
"What do you think of my image?"
Du Jiayi only felt that his eyes were dark, is there any essential difference between this question and the previous one?
Since he asked sincerely, Du Jiayi at least superficially answered seriously.
"You are very good at using the media, the exposure rate is very high, plus his media exposure is very high, and he is also the organizer of many beauty pageants such as "Miss Universe" and "Miss America", and his reputation and status are very good in the eyes of the general public. ”
Du Jiayi thought for a while, and then said: "You also have the image of a struggler, which is in line with the American dream to a certain extent, and has a great role in promoting the people. ”
Donald's $3 billion real estate empire suffered a huge Waterloo, losing two-thirds of his fortune, but later regained it with his autobiography "Trump: The Art of Return." It can be said that Donald has experienced wealth and poverty, endured hardships and enjoyed blessings, and has a very rich life experience. His first autobiography, The Art of Doing Business, was every businessman's "bible," selling more than 3 million copies, being named the best-selling book by the New York Times, and maintaining its top spot on the charts for 32 consecutive weeks. "The Ending, Survival on the Peak," along with his third book, "The Art of Return," was also ranked No. 1 by the New York Times as the best and best-selling book.
In Donald's extremely expectant eyes, Du Jiayi really felt that he couldn't make it up. As an ego and boastful businessman, Donald has a strong sense of self-pride. Some people worship it very much, while others are extremely disgusted.
"Actually, what I'm really proud of is the reality show I hosted." Donald proudly added.
"Flying Yellow is centered on me, open to ordinary people, and give people a glimpse into the lives of the rich and famous. When people try to live this way, then they will naturally follow this path all the way. ”
A few years ago, people might have hated nouveau riche like Donald, but it has to be said that he did catch the new trend. In this century of visual culture shock, Donald's Soaring is surprisingly trendy and irresistible.
This show is about picking a suitable person for Donald to be his "successor". The winner of this "final interview" can receive a one-year contract with Trump & Co. with an annual salary of $250,000.
The first season of "Feihuang Tengda" swept the United States as soon as it was broadcast, ranking first in the ratings for four consecutive months, with an average family rating of 20.7 million and the highest family rating of 40.1 million, becoming the highest-rated program for adults aged 18-49 in the past five years.
The reason why Donald is extremely proud is not that this show has brought him high profits, but that this high-rated show has deeply marked him and made him a household name.
Donald does things as he wants, laissez-faire and unrestrained, and until now, Du Jiayi still hasn't understood what Donald is looking for himself.
"What do you think of me running for president?" Donald said with some excitement.
Du Jiayi's hand shook, and his mind was in chaos.
"I feel like I can completely change the situation and save this declining country!" Donald spoke, gradually becoming agitated, and his face was tinged with an eerie flush.
Donald publicly declared twice in '88 and '00 that he wanted to run for the presidency of the United States. Although he later withdrew, that dashing wave still left a deep impression on people. His explanation for withdrawing from the election is also very "personal". Because of his cleanliness habits, he found that candidates for public office had to shake hands with too many strangers, and he said, "It's just horrible." Studies have shown that if you shake someone's hand, you risk catching a cold. ”
Du Jiayi didn't expect Donald to come to him for the sake of his desire to run for president. (To be continued.) )
