After the transaction money arrives, Shi Hu wants to pay off the previous 330 million loans, and there is still 420 million left, plus the 20 million obtained from the trip to Paris, the original deposit, and the money to win the card, Shi Hu's pocket is enriched to 500 million, plus real estate worth 500 million, with a total value of 1 billion. Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info

According to the counting method of Westerners, they are separated by three digits, so the units of measuring the rich are mostly millions (millions) and billions (billions), with Shi Hu's current net worth, comprehensive assets definitely need to be calculated with B, compared with M, the high and low are immediately obvious.

The billionaires are a minority in the United States and in the world. Shi Hu's style is not high-profile, but it doesn't mean that no one knows him, the bank where he opened an account has recommended a lot of financial management packages, rich cocktail party invitations, etc., and Yuntong has sent him an invitation to a black gold card.

When it comes to the world's top black and gold cards, Amex's Centurion is undoubtedly the most famous, and because Amex also offers global travel services, it is the most convenient to use for the unruly rich, and legend has it that it can also make the plane wait later.

What the legend is, Shi Hu doesn't know much, but if he is willing to pay, as a VIP of major American airlines, he can also make them wait later, so that card is more of a status symbol, as if I am a member of this top club, and you are not.

In addition to these trivial things when he got rich, Shi Hu still regularly engaged in research, played with airplanes, occasionally participated in a few parties of interest, and integrated into the circle of wealthy people...... Biological research has been on the rise recently, and a patent for a hemostatic drug has solved a lot of problems for him. What about other markets that are bigger?

It's just a divergent study, which is more difficult than copying hemostatic drugs, and the progress is not fast.

Shi Hu was not in a hurry. Anyway, the funds needed to start the hotel have been raised, and he expects that he will eventually need to invest two billion dollars, which is enough to start 50% of the construction costs. As long as the MGM partners compete and get enough funds as soon as possible, they can join forces to get started.

As long as he has free time in the afternoon, he practices with Erica.

He still works as a sparring partner, and Erica abandons her white-collar attire. The tank jacket and yoga pants went into battle, and the fists they swung out were also a little imposing, but they just hit the rough and thick-skinned Shi Hu. It didn't work, and he didn't even have to wear a baffle to easily catch her fist.

"One more group and a break." Shi Hu bowed.

She took a few breaths and stepped forward in a boxing position. Use Shi Hu as a target.

Sometimes the work is too stressful. Need to vent. Shi Hu is the ideal target, flexible, thick-skinned, and has no temper and makes her feel cared for...... Shi Hu saw that she was distracted frequently, and shouted to stop: "It's almost, congratulations, you have consumed the energy of the dessert you eat." ”

"Whew!" Her arms hung down.

Shi Hu stepped forward to help her untie her boxing gloves, and threw the towel to her: "Keep it up and get used to it, you gain a little more weight." The glamour will skyrocket. ”

"I will." She smiled brightly.

Shi Hu took a bottle of mineral water from the house, and there was a funnel that he didn't know what to do. stepped forward with a smile: "Play a game that tests your brains?" ”

"Hmm." She nodded.

"Look at me." Shi Hu inserted the funnel into his trousers, tilted his head back, put the bottle cap on his forehead, and then lowered his head, and the bottle cap fell into the funnel.

"It's been trending online lately, is it a challenge?" Shi Hu looked at her.

"A test of your brains?" She feels too simple, doesn't she?

Shi Hu handed her the funnel and bottle cap, took a sip of the mineral water bottle next to him, and waited for her challenge.

Erica also followed Shi Hu's example, the funnel was inserted into the pants, her head was tilted back, the bottle cap was placed on her forehead, and she was about to bow her head - Shi Hu suddenly poured the mineral water in her hand into the funnel, she exclaimed "oh", and the crotch of her pants was wet.

"Aha!" Shi Hu clutched his stomach and burst into laughter, "Look at you!" Whose girl is peeing her pants? ”

"Oh buy karma!" She was a little at a loss, looking at her wet crotch, and then at the guy next to her who was already rolling on the grass, she was smart and finally reacted, IQ game...... also laughed self-deprecatingly: "Do you need to be so happy when I am embarrassed?" ”

"I wouldn't be a normal person, but you." Shi Hu slapped his hand on the ground, "God! I've never seen such a rich expression on your face! ”

"It's not fun." She shook her head, Shi Hu was still smiling without an image, she rushed over and couldn't help but hit him: "Is it fun?" ”

"No, no! Help me! Shi Hu pulled her down, and the two of them lay on the ground together, the blue sky was particularly clear, and a few white clouds hung high in the distance.

"Los Angeles is much cooler than Las Vegas." Shi Hu said with his head on his head.

"I've heard that it's in the 40s outdoors there, and it's still in your early thirties here."

Shi Hu smiled: "This temperature can not dry your pants." ”

"Enough!" She frowned.

"Smile more, if you don't go to work now, no one will see you except me."

"Whatever you want." She simply took off her wet yoga pants and threw them aside casually to stretch her waist.

Shi Hu smiled: "Please I'm a man." ”

She didn't mind: "With you, I never felt like I needed to watch out for anything. ”

"I'm a man!" Shi Hu said worriedly.

"Haha." She couldn't help but laugh, "This question...... Forget it, I trust you anyway, just like you trust me. ”

"Well said." Shi Hu really likes this tacit understanding and trust.

……

After basking in the sun for a while, I went back to the house to take a shower in a sweat. Then wrap yourself in a bath towel and go under the balcony, sleep on a deck chair, have a drink in hand, enjoy the sunset, and occasionally a few insects and birds chirp, and that's all there is to the day. You can still sleep comfortably in a daze......

"Hey." Erica touched him.

Shi Hu opened his eyes: "What's the matter?" ”

Erica said: "I just answered a phone call, the Chinese Chamber of Commerce recently had a cocktail party in Los Angeles and wanted to invite you. ”

"How did you find me?" Shi Hu is strange.

"Contact the Las Vegas office first and transfer it to the assistant. Get my number again. Erica said that the chief assistant was in charge of almost everything for him.

"Chinese Chamber of Commerce?"

Erica advised: "The Chinese Chamber of Commerce has a great influence in the United States, and the Chamber of Commerce often communicates and strengthens cooperation between members. I believe that in the later stage of hotel investment, we can use this power to raise funds for the implementation of EB-5 projects in China. ”

Unlike Shi Hu, Shi Hu's proposed investment budget of $3 billion does not take into account factors such as the market, inflation or the economic environment, and Erica believes that it will be built with the construction period. The corresponding increase is likely to exceed the budget to 3.5 billion, or even 4 billion.

What should I do if there is a shortfall in funds in the later stage? Shi Hu didn't want to let the share go out again. In addition to borrowing from banks, there is also a private placement route. The EB-5 she introduced is a popular investment immigration business in the United States, with a $500,000 investment in the central area. In exchange for a U.S. green card.

Eligibility for EB-5 programs. Naturally, she wants to invest in the United States in exchange for immigration status as a foreigner - here she is targeting Chinese. Because in recent years, the number of Chinese investment immigrants to the United States has increased, and 200 investors can raise 100 million yuan, and the interest rate is lower than that of banks.

China's wealthy are keen to invest in green cards, and Shi Hu's project lacks funds, and the two can be said to coincide - so the relationship between the Chinese Chamber of Commerce is also important. How to communicate the propaganda between China and the United States. This is where the Chamber's connections are clearly needed.

Erica explained, and Shi Hu understood.

Sure enough, a good helper is comfortable. After thinking about it, Shi Hu also agreed: "I will participate." ”

……

Three days later, in the evening, a red Ferrari pulled up in front of a private clubhouse.

There are many clubs and clubs in the United States, and there are various purposes for business, entertainment or common hobbies, and some high-end clubs can also be a kind of identity to become members, such as those billionaire clubs...... However, this club of the Chinese Chamber of Commerce is not so harsh.

Shi Hu got out of the car and the parking attendant picked him up.

Dressed in a small yellow and white dress, with high heels and a wallet in her hand, Erica, who is quite temperamental, accompanied him into the venue.

There are already many people in the clubhouse, most of them are Asian faces, the conversation is not high, there are Chinese and English, and there are a few old and beautiful people coming and going, which is particularly conspicuous in a sea of Asians. Erica next to Shi Hu is also of this type and is easy to find.

Most of the people in the club knew each other, and suddenly a young face of twenty-seven or eighteen years old came, and someone would come forward curiously, and Shi Hu had participated in no less than thirty Western social meetings, and he could cope with it easily, talking about where he came from, what kind of business he was, and exchanging business cards.

The program was going on, and Shi Hu was also smiling.

The Chinese entrepreneurs who came to the United States are relatively humble, on the one hand, they have the influence of Western culture, on the other hand, they don't have some ink, and naturally they can't mix well, so Shi Hu also showed enthusiasm, although he is engaged in the Bo-Cai industry is relatively unpopular, but many friends also have many ways.

After getting to know several people in a row, the person Shi Hu wanted to know didn't appear for the time being, but Erica ran into an acquaintance.

"Miss Li?"

The person who spoke was a young man of Chinese descent, dressed in a suit and leather shoes, with neatly combed hair, wearing a pair of glasses and looking quite gentle, and his demeanor was quite graceful.

Erica looked at the other party and recalled, "Feng Kai? ”

"It's me, long time no see!" The other party stepped forward with a smile, shook her hand first, and then looked at Shi Hu next to him: "Who is this gentleman?" ”

Erica introduced: "Tiger. Stone, my boss; Kai Feng, alumnus. ”

"Hello, don't mind if I call you Tiger?" Feng Kai smiled, trying to get closer: "I don't think there is much difference in age between us. ”

"No problem." Shi Hu nodded.

"What kind of business is the gentleman engaged in?" Feng Kai asked.

"Casinos, hotels." Shi Hu said that Feng Kai was surprised: "There are not many Chinese people who do this business, you must have your own skills and ways." ”

"Thanks to my assistant." Shi Hu directly gave the credit to Erica, and he could see that Feng Kai wanted to talk to Erica more.

But Erica looked uninterested, Feng Kai's topics were mostly answered one by one, which was quite cold, if it weren't for his good eloquence.

Shi Hu listened quietly, Erica's character is like this, if you want to fall in love with her, she will think it's a waste of time.

"I have other things." Erica interrupted.

"Then you guys get busy first." Feng Kai was still smiling.

"Let's talk again when we have a chance." Shi Hu nodded at him, and his non-participation had already made his position clear: it was just an ordinary friend relationship.

But the people who can make Erica think about irrelevant things when she is doing serious things...... Except for Shi Hu, there is no one else for the time being. (To be continued.) )
