Chapter 156: The Casino Is Built

"As you grow, you will find that one of your two hands is self-help and the other is for helping others, and if I am able, I hope to help those in need as much as I can; I have a similar foundation in the U.S., and my family and I have donated to many universities. "Foundations are a good means of money laundering and tax avoidance, and donating to the university is conducive to getting to know more upper-class figures, and it can also help one's own people to enter the university more conveniently, which is also very beneficial to the future talent training of the Corleone family.

Don't be afraid if your hands are dirty, as long as you clean them in time, your hands in front of the public are still white and flawless, since capitalists like Rockefeller who directly use the army to deal with striking workers can be whitewashed into great benevolent people through charity, why can't the Corleone family?

In the last two movies of "The Godfather", Mike has been committed to whitewashing, many of which Shen Long does not approve, but the general direction is still right, not many underworld families can continue forever, either whitewashing, or being killed and replaced, there is no other way to choose.

Audrey Hepburn was moved again, she felt that this sentence simply spoke to her heart, she knew that this sentence was originally her own famous saying, how could she not succeed in using Hepburn's words to impress Hepburn?

"But philanthropy isn't just about donating money, I also need a local who is familiar with Holland and ballet to help me manage this fund, dear Mrs. Hepburn, I wonder if I have the honor to invite you to be the head of this foundation?" I am sure that with your abilities and social connections, you will be able to accomplish this task with ease. "Mrs. Hepburn has the title of baroness, her previous husband was a banker, and she has no shortage of ability and social connections.

"It's also a privilege to help children." Mrs. Hepburn bowed slightly, and agreed to Shen Long's invitation in the reserved and tactful language used by nobles.

Shen Long didn't say anything about the salary or anything, this is not suitable to mention directly in front of a nobleman, although Mrs. Hepburn is now down to the point that there is only one name left, and everyone knows these things, and when the time comes, the Foundation will naturally give her a treatment that can live a comfortable and decent life in the Netherlands.

"Next I will go to Sicily to see Johnny and their filming progress, and then go back to the United States, I think if it is convenient, Audrey would be better to go to Hollywood with me, although she is very talented, but after all, she has not studied in a professional class before, and she has less acting experience, so it is best to have professional training in advance, and I will help her arrange the best teacher." Shen Long asked tentatively, if everything went well, they could let their mother and daughter be separated temporarily.

"Audrey has never left home alone, and now she is going to the United States on the other side of the ocean." Mrs. Hepburn was a little hesitant, she also wanted to accompany Hepburn, but what should the Foundation do in this case?

"Mom, don't worry, haven't I always been in boarding school when I was a kid?" Audrey Hepburn persuaded that although she was reluctant to be her mother, she was not willing to lose this opportunity, let alone let those financially poor children wait for a long time.

"I think it can be arranged in this way, you first use this time to do the preliminary work of the foundation, and then go to the United States with Audrey, see Hollywood and her teachers, and then return to the Netherlands to preside over the foundation after you are at ease, at most one or two years, the foundation can be on the right track, then you don't have to stay in the Netherlands all the time, you can go to the United States to live with Audrey." Shen Long suggested.

In this way, Mrs. Hepburn can also rest assured that she can also buy a year or two of time alone with Audrey Hepburn, everyone knows that a girl alone will always be a little lonely and need to be comforted and cared for, which is one of the reasons why many girls are particularly eager to fall in love as soon as they go to college.

In this year or two, he should be able to take Audrey Hepburn, and then he will not worry about Mrs. Hepburn coming to the United States from the Netherlands.

"Fredo, you are such a gentleman, you are so thoughtful!" These words left the Hepburn mother and daughter completely speechless, and it can be said that every detail has been taken into account.

"Thank you for the compliment, then I'll take my leave first, and I'll arrange for someone to come over and communicate with you about the Foundation later." Shen Long politely took his leave.

The next day, Shen Long's business elites came, and Mrs. Hepburn also considerately asked Audrey Hepburn to accompany Shen Long to tour around Anheng and visit the local beauty; By the time they returned, things had already been settled, and the smile on Mrs. Hepburn's face showed that she was pleased with the size of the Foundation and the treatment of herself.

Shen Long gave them a few days to spend alone with each other, so that they could prepare themselves, and he went to Sicily to track the filming progress of "Cinema Paradiso".

"James Wong's skills are so good, he can definitely win the Oscar for Best Cinematography with this film!" Johnny said excitedly to Shen Long.

"He does have the quality, and when the awards season comes, I'll fight for you." Shen Long now wants to win a certain little golden man for someone, which is much easier than Weinstein in the future.

Shen Long chatted with Huang Zongzhan alone, and tested his relationship with Hongmen between words, but the result was not unexpected by Shen Long, although he was not from Hongmen, he did know several influential figures in Hongmen; Shen Long wrote these down one by one and asked Huang Zongzhan to help spread a message, he wanted to talk to these people.

Huang Zongzhan also vaguely knew a little about the business of the Pediatric Leone family, and thought it was some cooperation from the underground world, so he agreed without special suspicion, and when he returned to the United States after completing the filming, he would help Shen Long contact him.

Shen Long was very happy to come to Europe, establish several new smuggling routes, negotiate business in several countries, and most importantly, meet Audrey Hepburn.

After leaving Sicily, he returned to the Netherlands, flew to Hollywood with the Hepburn mother and daughter, rented them a large house in Beverly Hills, and hired some of Hollywood's best female teachers to help Audrey Hepburn with her studies, and both mother and daughter were very satisfied.

It's a pity that at this time, Shen Long had to leave Hollywood for Las Vegas, because there was news from Mo Green's side that the casino had been built!
