Chapter 248 - Donations for Minorities
"I refuse to ......" Thinking of this, Edward suddenly came to his senses.
Vanessa really has the means, it seems that the bamboo tube pours the beans and tells Percy's conditions one by one, and strictly speaking, these conditions are not excessive, but they are quite sincere.
But in fact, it is to lower their vigilance, if the hot-headed agreed, as long as the auditors are stationed, it will really be manipulated.
Although he will not be sent to prison, the other party can completely ask for a large part of his income to be taken away as hush money at that time, and he really has no ability to resist at all.
And don't expect allies to come out to help at this time, no, they will only smile in the face of the senior senator, and then everyone will sit at a table and happily discuss how to tear Edward Young apart and make sure everyone can get more benefits.
"It's a bit too much...... he glared at the other with bloodshot eyes, "I don't think it's good communication, you're trying to trick me." ”
"Okay, I apologize......" Vanessa sincerely confessed.
"Well, I want to ask, once I exit, will the stock of the national cinema chain return to its previous price, will this cause market volatility? So, do you have any other requirements? ”
This is also a very practical problem.
Edward's efforts to copy the stock can be said to be exhaustive, even at the expense of constantly complicating and expanding simple financial problems, and then forming a social hot issue.
The advantage of this is that it can attract a large number of people to participate, forming a situation where leeks cut sickles and shrimp eat predators, and this kind of highly news-effective activity is naturally liked by major media, and the media's intervention is equivalent to helping to do secondary communication, which coerces a large number of ordinary people to come in and take over.
At the moment, he can make a lot of money, but after that, if the stock price falls back to 2 yuan, will anyone jump off the building?
Although he can say that this is the result of greed, he can't sit idly by in his heart.
After all, in his previous life, he was also a green leek, and he barely became a Chinese crocodile after crossing over, but when he was a leek for a day, he was a leek for life, so why should a leek be embarrassed by leeks?
"Very well, it seems that you still have a bit of a conscience."
"I am afraid that the image of the United States will be damaged, and I do not want to be reduced to TASS propaganda material, which will disgrace my ancestors......" is also true.
It's not that I'm afraid of retaliation from the government of the United States, but I can't afford to lose that person......
TASS and Pravda are highly praised, and other Western media will definitely not let go, and the Western media is best at the excrement movement, when the time comes, you will find out everything, Edward is very worried that things such as his own medicine will be reported in the newspaper, and he will rely on the secret medicine of Chinatown at a young age, if this is said, it will really be an immediate social death......
Be a joke at Yale for the rest of your life......
"Congressman Percy was struggling with this in Washington, and he had a meeting with a lot of people to discuss it. There are ways to do it, and of course, it would be better if you could take the initiative to participate. ”
"Yes, but I'll have to consult with my partners, I don't have the right to use their proceeds, and if you can give me some letters from Senator Percy, I think it would be more convenient to convince them......"
"Yes, I'll have the senator's office write you a letter, signed by him, of course."
"Okay, finally, I have one more request."
"Please," Vanessa said.
"I have some shares of other companies in my hands, and I want to take this opportunity to go with them, which should not be counted in the total......"
"Bethlehem Steel?" Vanessa was quick to respond.
"How do you know?" Edward said casually, and then he laughed, when his grandfather bought a stock with a market value of $120w for $800,000, it seemed to be taking advantage, but it was actually a loss, because this thing could hardly be sold out, and no one took it.
And my grandfather's shrewdness obviously won't take the initiative to take over, that is, there is a big man who asked Mizrasi Rabi to "help".
The other party is reluctant to take the junk stock that is troublesome to realize, but is reluctant to give up this piece of meat, at this time the role of Mizrasi Rabi comes out, and the other party is also very beautiful, and takes the over-the-counter block transaction in the form of a discount, so as to avoid the fluctuation of the stock price on the floor and at the same time fall into a good name - do not take advantage.
Although it seems to be a little less, in the future, if this matter is dug up by the media or Mizrasi Rabi bites it out, the other party can say that this is a fair deal, and there is absolutely no forced buying and selling......
Now it seems that this is most likely Master Percy, and of course Vanessa may have hitchhiked in it.
"Of course, but as for Bethlehem Steel, you'd better not use any other means...... After all, when you buy it, you get a discount......"
"Row ......"
"Then I'll reply to the senator?"
"That's about it." Edward held out his hand to her.
Vanessa said "deal" and the two sides shook hands.
Vanessa's hands are small, but they are very beautiful, their fingers are long, and the back of their hands is fleshy and comfortable to the touch.
"I'd like to borrow a phone." Vanessa said.
"Of course" Seeing Vanessa pick up the earpiece, Edward suddenly said "Slow down......"
"What's the problem?"
"This phone is external and may not necessarily be secure. I have two confidential private lines here, which are much more reliable. Edward introduced.
Dedicated line telephones, which are expensive, as the name suggests, have to go through special lines and switches, but they are indeed much better in terms of security.
For the sake of a big deal, he spent money to install two doors.
"Upstairs ......"
Vanessa followed him upstairs.
"I'm sorry, one is in the study, but I can't get in one place right now, and the other door is in my ......bedroom," Edward pushed the door open.
Vanessa stepped in, and Edward followed her, smelling the shampoo in her hair.
Looking at her dark brown hair, she smelled, "You're of Asian descent?" ”
"Asian?" Vanessa was stunned for a moment, and when she saw him staring at her hair, she immediately smiled, "No, in fact, my ancestors have Sioux blood......"
The Sioux were the most warlike of the Indians of the American continent, which of course meant that there were hardly many of them left......
"It is said that my ancestors were from the Comanche tribe, but God knows...... And I don't have much Sioux blood in me, so I can't enjoy the treatment of Indians......"
"yes, otherwise, it's much more comfortable to open a casino than it is now."
"Yes," Vanessa walked to the bedside table.
Edward's mind suddenly turned, "Hey, how about doing me a favor?" ”
"Huh?"
"Look, I'll need to go through it again when the money is in hand......" Edward said
"Let me help you launder your money?" Vanessa was a little surprised, "This is illegal, not to mention that you are completely legal income for you." ”
"Yes, but the money isn't very glamorous after all, so I need to make him look a little better."
"Can't you see that you have a plan for your own future? But sorry, I can't help you. ”
"I'd like to donate to that statue outside Cust," Edward looked at him
"The statue of the mad horse?" Vanessa was stunned.
"Yes, I know it's a big and huge project, but I don't accept government grants and only private organizations to raise donations, I want to ......"
"You want to go through my Indian Cultural Foundation?"
Vanessa, as a municipal councillor and a descendant of Indians, would certainly make good use of this resource.
The establishment of a foundation is the basic operation, as for the Indian Culture Week, the free training for the employment of Indian descendants, the traveling exhibition of the tragic experience of the Indians, and so on.
And often, these projects operate under the name of the Foundation.
The Foundation, ahem, especially the Foundation involving the Indians, it's a revolving door that works better than a church.
When the money entered the church, it had to turn around and make up a lot of business to wash it off.
It's much easier to get into the Indian Foundation.
The big financiers of the Indian Foundation are naturally the Indians who live in the Indian reserves, and the US government also knows that the westward expansion movement of the year has caused too much murder, and after the reunification of the country, it will give the Indians a very generous policy compensation - the privilege of opening casinos.
In this way, the life of these remnants is too good.
Of course, the actual business is still done by those white-skinned devils, but there must be Indian directors on the board of directors, and they must take dry shares.
It is equivalent to the government of the United States letting the white skin capital pay money for its own sin.
In this way, it is much more convenient to launder money, and Edward's money enters the foundation, and he can directly kill all sides in the casino and make a lot of money.
This Nima is that neither the FBI nor the IRS can find fault, of course, the premise is to properly fill out the 1040 schedule of the personal income tax form in April every year.
The IRS is still very reliable in this regard, winnings from the casino are taxed, and losses are also tax-deductible, and only the net value is taxed.
It's really fair.
So, as long as Edward pays his taxes on time, then the income can be washed clean.
He manipulated this short-squeeze storm behind the scenes, and he could leave no evidence.
Vanessa groaned.
It's a very good deal for her than buying and selling.
First of all, the money Edward earned this time is "clean" even if he is not washed, of course, if he continues to rise in the future, this will become a potential hidden danger, and if he is caught by competitors to make a big fuss, it will make him passive.
Participating in money laundering can naturally earn a lot of fees.
Moreover, it is a very good deal to earn fame from this money laundering, especially to gain a lot of praise among the Indian community, which is also very useful for Vanessa's "progress" in the future.
The statue outside Custer is also quite historical.
Crazy Horse was a Sioux leader who was a good warrior and reached the peak of his life in 1876.
At that time, 200 cavalry of the 7th Cavalry Regiment led by Lieutenant Colonel George Armstrong Custer encountered 3,000 elite Indians led by three Sioux chiefs, Sitting Bull, Red Cloud, and Crazy Horse.
Custer was killed, and this is known as the Battle of Little Giant Horn.
Tactical victories did not bring luck to the Indians.
After that, the relieved United States continued to send troops to suppress it, and the tribe led by Crazy Horse eventually retreated to the Black Mountains near Mount Rushmore.
Unfortunately, the Montenegro discovered gold at that time, so the federal army continued to besiege it, and finally Crazy Horse couldn't bear to watch his tribe starve and decided to surrender.
A few months after surrendering, he was inexplicably killed.
This was supposed to be the end of the matter.
But since 1927, the heads of four presidents have been carved on Mount Rushmore, and President Hill has become a famous scenic spot in the United States.
In this regard, the Standing Bear chieftain, who lives on the Indian reservation, was very angry: "You white people have seized our territory and killed our people, and it is all in the past, but you are still commemorating your president, this is really too bullying......
In addition, the nearby city of Custer was named in honor of Colonel Custer, who died at the Battle of Little Giant Horn.
It's like on the faces of these Indian descendants.
So, Chief Takuma decided to rebel in his own way.
This was done by erecting a statue that was taller than the president's head, each 60 feet tall on Mount Rushmore.
Designed by the Polish-born sculptor Kiwikovski, the statue of Crazy Horse is expected to be 600 feet tall and its head 90 feet tall, surpassing anyone on Mount Rushmore.
Of course, Henry Lixiong knew the virtues of the federal government, so he didn't plan to charge the federal government a penny from the beginning, for fear that this group of white ghosts would play some tricks again.
And Qiaowu Kowski is simply an American fool, he moved to the foot of Montenegro with his wife and children, and then the husband and wife were busy with design and construction during the day (of course, they hired people), and they were not idle at night, and gave birth to ten children before and after.
Knowing full well that he would not see the day in his life when the statue was finished all day, he counted on the children to continue this great cause.
In addition, Dakota is a Sioux Indian word meaning "friend."
And Montenegro is one of the sacred mountains of the Sioux tribe.
If it can be linked to this project, the exposure and fame are great, and it is a real fame and fortune.
Vanessa couldn't help but be unmoved.
At this moment, she had to re-evaluate this young guy in her heart, he was means, flexible, and creative.
If it does, Edward will put the money into Vanessa's Indian Descent Foundation, a registered and legitimate public welfare organization that receives a tax-deductible amount for donations.
The Foundation then distributed the money in several waves and transferred it to the Foundation and related units related to the Crazy Horse sculpture.
The chairman of the Crazy Horse Sculpture Foundation is Cole, the gray wolf, the son of Henry the Bear, who has always dressed in the traditional style of the Sioux Dakota tribe in an interview.
He wears a feather-covered crown on his head, a coarse woollen cape, and a jade rod that symbolizes power.
Privately, however, he prefers to be on the board of directors of his casinos and make business decisions himself.
As a top graduate of the Wharton School, he is very expert in business, which has also made the casino business more and more prosperous.
In fact, if Cole the Gray Wolf had walked down Wall Street, everyone would have thought he was a brilliant banker, not an Indian......
Cole the Gray Wolf is a real American, but perhaps betrays his own bloodline.
But how to say it?
At least under his rule, Crazy Horse's sculpture work has never stopped, and it has been accelerating.
Although it doesn't look like much from the outside.
But this is not his problem, after all, the material of the sculpture is a whole mountain, a real mountain 600 feet high, made entirely of hard granite, and the amount of work can be imagined.
