There is still about half a month left before the money-making activity.

Shi Hu and Paul Cliff have basically agreed, now is the preparation stage, Shi Hu needs to systematically improve his poker skills, Paul has to find a friend who works at UBS, for him to prepare several tens of millions of accounts; In the end, Shi Hu still had to need a few fake identities.

The result of choosing one or the other is the second. Shi Hu calculated, if optimistic, assuming that this trip made a profit of 50 million US dollars - what is easy to exceed 100 million, it is mostly a routine to fool people into getting on the thief ship. He calculates the discount, and the first one he has the confidence to cut to about 20%, that is, to pay 10 million US dollars.

Second, first refer to the value factors of the Maxim Hotel: four-star, casino-hotel model, located in the radiation area of Long Street, last year's revenue of 83 million US dollars, a loss of 3 million - the loss is due to hotel decoration. The year before and the years before, it was indeed profitable.

Therefore, the hotel is worth more than 100 million yuan, Shi Hu wants shares, and also wants absolute control, he estimates that he has to throw out 50 million, and then post the funds upside down, which may cost 60 million or more. But the benefit: while paying, you get a four-star casino hotel.

Shi Hu likes to be in the limelight, so he chooses the latter.

The casino can blacklist him, but in the blink of an eye, he will become a casino owner, and he will still live in style, and he will be angry with you. If possible, he plans to invest in a five-star luxury casino hotel in the future to compete with the tycoons and take Las Vegas.

……

Although the dream is beautiful, the reality still needs to be worked on.

Paul threw Shi Hu an English book: "Look at it, we'll play cards in the next few days." ”

"Super-system? Doyle Bronson? Shi Hu looked at the content, as if it was a book about playing cards.

"The bible of poker has been read by almost every master." Paul said, "I'm curious that you can play so well without reading these books." ”

"It's not a recipe for victory." Shi Hu disagreed, and also opened it to take a look, written by the legendary poker player Doyle Bronson, summing up a lot of experience.

Paul said: "I find that you have two advantages, you are very good at reading cards, and it will give you a head start at the starting line; The camouflage ability is also very good, and it can deceive many people. ”

"Thank you." Shi Hu smiled.

"But," the Americans also like to play the twist, "you can play this way against the average player, but if you run into a top player, you're still a little hangy." ”

"Don't worry, you haven't encountered it, and if you do, you will refresh your concept." Shi Hu said confidently, he is reading cards, that is, reading minds.

Paul shook his head, "I hope you have the last laugh." ”

Shi Hu put down the book: "By the way, how is the matter of fake accounts?" ”

"My friend will have a way to give you a few accounts, about thirty or forty million dollars, but your capital is only your own share, maybe I also participate in the shares?"

Shi Hu shook his head: "No, it's better to settle the accounts with my own funds." ”

"And the question of your new identity, I can buy a real passport, but Asian faces are not easy to distinguish, and you are a little ......" Paul looked at him and found a description: "It's not all typical Asian, the facial features, the bridge of the nose is not the same." ”

"I can't be a minority? You have to know that China has a large land span, many ethnic groups – even whites, and a rich history of expansion, and you will understand the differences. "Shi Hu is actually not very clear about the problem of his own appearance, and no one can prove it.

"Yes, too...... I heard that you guys bullied Russia back then? ”

"I have to thank your history teacher, yes, Mao Zi gave us a hard beating, and you Americans, you have never succeeded in beating Mao Zi."

Paul laughed: "Let's not talk about this chauvinism, I'll give you a few pictures to see, and you pick a guy who looks like yourself." ”

Shi Hu took his envelope, there were many photos in it, he wondered, sure enough, foreigners look at Chinese the same, where is this similar to himself? The difference is huge...... Looking around, in the end, I barely picked one that was more suitable, and I had to grow some more beard.

"Let's do it." Shi Hu gave him the photo, "How are you going to get a passport?" ”

"Every year in the United States, a large number of private information is stolen and documents are lost." Paul looked at the picture and compared it with Shihu, but he couldn't see the difference.

Shi Hu was suspicious: "Can counterfeiting pass the entry and exit inspection?" ”

"The credentials are real. How so...... That is, after a person dies unexpectedly, someone collects the file and continues to pay various insurance, utility bills for him, and falsifies a perfect life illusion, and the information is sold through the black market, and the longer the survival date, the more valuable it is. ”

"And this man?" Shi Hu asked.

"It's about half a million dollars, and it's been resurrected for more than a year." Paul estimated.

Shi Hu gave a thumbs up: "You are amazing, you are definitely not a serious person - you are a mafia, right?" ”

Paul smiled mysteriously, picked up his things and left: "Look more, it will definitely help you." I'll take care of the rest for you. ”

……

If you want to say that Paul Cliff is decent, you don't believe it when you kill Shi Hu, in just a few days, he got Zhang Qiang's passport, and when he saw the information, he was still a mixed race, and his father was Chinese, but he didn't look very good - how could he have his own spirit. Shi Hu memorized this guy's information.

The reason why other people's passports are used is that Shi Hu does not want to reveal his whereabouts, and the second is that Chinese passports require visas wherever they go, unlike American passports, most countries and regions in the world are visa-free, saving a lot of visa trouble. This time I want to go to Europe, and it is difficult to handle the Chinese passport.

The identity and funds are ready, and now the acting skills are left.

Ahem...... Game. Shi Hu and Paul played poker for a few days, Paul also invited some masters to accompany him to make moves, constantly changing the style, Shi Hu with a very high card reading skills, stable opponent one. After a few days of testing, Paul felt more at ease with him that as long as his luck wasn't too bad, he would win.

Finally, there's another level: acting.

It's really acting, and he goes back to find his guys. In this operation, he had to pick an assistant, and he found Michael, who was picking up girls: "Do you want to be my maid?" ”

"What! Man? Michael was surprised.

Shi Hu let him go: "Do you want to be an actor?" The master has a big action recently, your identity is a translator and a dogleg, and you will give a red envelope after the deed is completed. ”

He came interested: "How much?" ”

"Five."

"Five, one, two, three, four, five?" Michael counted his fingers in a daze.

"You kid is always clamoring to do a big ticket, and now that the opportunity has come, why don't you seize it?" Shi Hu was dissatisfied with his lack of progress and kicked him.

"Okay, okay, the master speaks, and the apprentice will work hard." Michael rolled his eyes, "Is it a gambling boat thing?" A world fiercer than gangs? ”

"It should be." Shi Hu nodded.

"Hehe, I'll it for free." Michael is here, he's a jack of all trades, and he can't resist the world that is darker than the gangsters.

Shi Hu glanced at his hip-hop dress a few times, and frowned: "Go get a few suits, cut your hair short, and make yourself look like a dog." ”

Michael reached out and begged for a tip.

"If you mess up, don't mess around." Shi Hu threw him a wad of money.

"Mess up, I'll disappear on my own." Michael counted the money and was satisfied: "Thank you, Master." ”

……

Then Shi Hu asked Gianna out again.

"I'm afraid the bar will have to be postponed." Shi Hu said to her.

Gianna asked, "What went wrong?" ”

"Probably something better." Shi Hu smiled, "I plan to buy a casino hotel, and if it is successful, I will directly build the bar inside." ”

"Wow, where?" She asked.

"Hotel Maxim."

"It's a 4-star and the location is pretty good." She was very surprised, this is estimated to be tens of millions of things.

"Yes, I negotiated with the other party's boss, and now I will be short of money."

"What? You are so cute. Gianna imitated his tone: "I want to buy an American aircraft carrier, and it has already been negotiated, and it is currently tens of billions short." ”

Shi Hu was stunned, and then laughed too.

"But I'm serious." Shi Hu stopped laughing. "Also, can I borrow you for a few days? I have an upper-class drill and need a female companion. ”

"No problem." She doesn't care.

"Shall we go, then?" Shi Hu said.

"Now? Earnest? Gianna was surprised and looked at him: "Do you think a lady, in casual clothes and without accessories, would be invited?" ”

"I'm sorry." Shi Hu patted his head, "Then let's go and get these done first." ”

……

How to pretend to be a rich man in China, Shi Hu knows very well, his former boss is.

But how did Westerners get so lucky? He lacks understanding, including banquets, balls, etc., the dress code for appearances, etc. When the time comes, it will be a luxury cruise ship, and this kind of occasion is inevitable, and the acting skills will also be in place. Shi Hu trained for a few days and mastered all the details.

Gianna is not included in the list of activities, and the female companion will have access to a lot of secrets and cannot find acquaintances. Paul found him a socialite with long legs and blonde hair, sexy red lips that were seductive and easy to influence.

Paul calls it a poker off-floor strategy.

Shi Hu didn't need this strategy, but he did need a female companion. The old and unscrupulous Paul hit him with his arm and squeezed his eyes: "She's yours." ”

"I'm more concerned about making money." Shi Hu doesn't care, if he has money, he has no problem finding a hundred of this kind of best, but if he has no money, a thousand can't be happy.
