Chapter 112: MGM's Cooperation (Ask for the First Order)

The cooperation was temporarily put on hold, and Fred also told him not to worry, and the investor could not choose to spend money on development because of a "not very professional" idea. Shi Hu naturally understands the truth, not to mention that he can't be in a hurry if he wants to, he is currently poor and has a lot of debts.

Lauren. Woods was in charge of design, Erica was busy with the selection and recruitment of new companies, and Shi Hu continued to be his shopkeeper, going to the gym to practice when he had time. Mars and Michael have been erratic lately, often running to shooting clubs, and they don't know what the hell is going on.

Shi Hu didn't have time to care for the time being, and was bewitched by Fred, so after he completed the instrument certification, he rushed into aerobatics. These are the two dreams of all flight enthusiasts: one is to control the plane to do all kinds of cool maneuvers, and the second is to be supersonic naturally.

Supersonic speed is not easy to achieve, but cool maneuvering has a chance. Fred has practiced stunts for a long time, plus he has a talent, and now he plays advanced difficulty - to this extent, the talent is very dominant, and the powerful aerobatic pilot is not difficult to switch to flying fighters.

Shi Hu can't play the advanced difficulty yet, so start with the beginner first.

"Beginner flight is the easiest, and for pilots who have not been specially trained, they can gradually improve their level of resistance to overload during training." Fred walked as he spoke, leading him to a red-painted aerobatic plane: "Aerobatic planes, only German goods can be trusted!" ”

Shi Hu has heard this kind of statement, especially in the field of unlimited flight, the whole world recognizes German goods, such as handmade, extremely rare XA42, and EA300 in front of him, all of which are made in Germany. The United States is still short of fire. The Su-26 was also born because of the policy of the Soviet Union.

Fred doesn't have the attitude of Americans who think they are the best in the world, just do it, and if it doesn't, forget it. It's easy to be a man, pat the wings: "It's better to say a hundred words than to do it once, come on buddy!" Visitors sit in the front and let me take you through a few beginner flight difficulties. ”

The EA300's seat layout is in front and rear mode, with the pilot at the rear and the passenger in front of the guest in order to balance the aircraft's center of gravity. Buckle up a thick seatbelt as if you were strapped to an airplane. Glide short distances, raise your head and rush into the blue sky - Shi Hu in the co-pilot experience the front seat vision.

"The performance of the EA300 is outstanding. Its stall speed is only 102 kilometers per hour, you see-" Fred slowed down in the air, and the airspeed meter showed that the plane's speed continued to decrease after the 55 knots (102 kilometers) threshold. If you descend further, you will lose lift.

Shi Hu's center of gravity fell. The plane stalled and fell.

Referring to the fighter jets of various countries, the stall speed is generally about 200 kilometers, and in this respect, aerobatic aircraft have a agility that jet fighters cannot match - after two seconds of falling, Fred controls the joystick and throttle valve, and quickly and skillfully stabilizes the flight.

"There are a lot of accidents in the air, all of which are caused by aircraft stalling, but as an aerobatic pilot. Stall needs to be taken as a matter of course. ”

"Some seniors said that stalling can't kill you. But it can make you hit the ground. Here's how to deal with stall and overstall flight training, is that okay? ”

"No problem." Although it was only demonstrated for three minutes to teach, but if you are a pilot, you can resist a high G value, and you can doze off on a roller coaster, what are you afraid of?

……

At the end of the morning's training, Shi Hu was sweating.

Flying in the sky for a few hours, ordinary flying and aerobatics are really very different, ordinary airplanes require stability and safety, and aerobatics is how dangerous and how to come, all kinds of exaggerated maneuvers are challenging the limit - it belongs to the game of the brave.

Shi Hu is a strange person, from being uncomfortable at the beginning, to gradually adapting, and then to enough to deal with it, it only took a short time. He was a highly talented pilot in Fred's eyes, and they were discussing and training for a week, and they gained a lot.

Up to now, he has also been able to complete some upside-down and rolling, half-somersault and half-tumbling actions on his own, and let the people on the ground take a few videos, and when he opens it to watch it, let alone say it, it's pretty cool. When you have a small success in the future, and a whole set of beautiful actions are played, then it is called powerful.

While Shi Hu was flying, the rest of the work was carried out in an orderly manner.

Lauren. Woods' sketch of the design came out, and Shi Hu and Fred had seen it, a very simple spaceship shape, with a large amount of glass on the surface, and the main structure was partially supported by steel, fully considering the use of solar energy and sunlight, and then building a swimming pool in the middle and planting trees......

Fred was satisfied: "This plan is good, keep a copy for me and take it back to help you sell it." ”

Lauren. Woods explains: "I only finished the exterior design, and the interior details were a huge project, and I needed help and time. ”

"No problem, my lord asks for quality." Shi Hu is also satisfied, he can provide manpower and time, and there is at least half a year to prepare.

A few days after Fred brought the drawings back, someone from MGM reached out.

This time, it was a different group of people, and the attitude was the same sincerity. Shi Hu also came out in the name of the company - Stone International has set up an office in Las Vegas, and more than a dozen relevant personnel have been recruited, and under Erica's arrangement, they have begun to operate for this plan.

The two sides discussed ideas and collaboration.

Shi Hu didn't show his face, anyway, his attitude Erica was very clear: he must adopt the ideas he likes, and other details can be discussed.

If it's still a bad city-within-a-city plan, Shi Hu won't talk to them again. The other hotel groups in Las Vegas, Sands and Hilton are all potential partners, and they have different opinions...... However, the negotiations went smoothly and there were no major differences.

Erica emphasized: "The other party agrees with our futuristic style and is interested in providing financial cooperation and providing necessary assistance in the operation of the casino hotel. However, the time needs to be postponed, and they are currently having difficulty in cash flow, and it will take at least half a year to adjust. ”

"No wonder they didn't rob us last time." Shi Hu understands that MGM seems to have a big business, but the uneven industry really drags down the group.

Erica agrees: "So convenience is mostly biased in our favor. ”

……

A few days later, Shi Hu officially met with his partner.

Located in the MGM Grand Hotel, it has different specifications of showrooms, business activity center. Las Vegas is also home to a variety of exhibitions and business events, such as the Hard Rock Hotel's infamous annual "Adult Oscars" ceremony, the Sex Toys Show, and the ......

Representatives of both sides arrived, and Shi Hu attended as the chairman and general manager, with an assistant who could act as his own agent and a big helper; The representative of the opposing party is Henry. Hortman, whom they had met earlier, was one of Fred's uncles and a director of MGM.

The meeting is mainly for high-level consultations on the issue of cooperation, because of the lack of funds, it is not yet time to talk about formal cooperation, but many exchange projects can be advanced, such as the share of investment, operation management, before the opening, the training of practitioners......

Investing in the hotel industry is not an easy job, if it were not for the dream of "being a gambling god", Shi Hu would not have touched this industry, thankless, and profits fluctuated greatly. Even if you have a lot of assets, the discerning outside world will greatly reduce the value of the value.

It's not easy to chase dreams, and you need to be hard-headed.

Lauren. Woods' sketches of his work are projected, and Erica takes the stage to introduce them. The tacit understanding between her and Shi Hu is reflected here, she thinks it is good, and Shi Hu agrees. So this exchange was carried out according to Shi Hu's expectations, and the other party did not have much pickiness.

At this point, the cooperation is almost settled, and as long as there are no major changes, both sides will actively prepare funds to carry out the alliance. The cooperation can solve 25% of Shihu's financial problems, as well as valuable political relations and experience in the management and operation of super five-star casino hotels.
