Chapter 626

With Ivan's explanation of Ridge as the prince Judd, who was specially sent to keep an eye on money.

Kahn and Senator Bob Howard quickly let go of their doubts and returned to the sofa area with a bottle of champagne, congratulating everyone on the successful outcome of their first cooperation.

It's a pity that the ending is not destined to be good.

After Kahn and Bob left the Senate, on the morning and afternoon of the second day and the third day, they met with four New Jersey representatives smoothly.

The more evidence FB1 has of members accepting bribes, the more people they dragged into the water.

But what is surprising is that the expression of Kahn, the middleman, is becoming more and more disturbed.

If Ivan called Li Changheng, he would understand that Kahn was originally on the side of Horton Mitchell, one of the two Senates in New Jersey.

But after getting in touch with them in the past few days, not to mention Holden Mitchell and members of his faction, even Johnny O’Connor, a rising star in New Jersey’s political circle, gave Kahn some advice on Judd’s matter. Shut up.

His old friend didn't help, and Kahn, whose political sense is not low, felt more and more that there was a problem.

However, Kahn, who was limited by his vision and perspective as the mayor of Camden, could not directly see the essence of the problem.

I only thought that I and some rich people in New Jersey were secretly planning Atlantic City, and Horton, Johnny and others noticed it.

But even if he sensed the danger, he still couldn't believe it. There would be a Senate in New Jersey, and a rising political star in the House of Representatives. He had met Li Changheng three months ago and knew that Judd's investment in Atlantic City was a trap.

With Horton Mitchell and Johnny O'Connor here, the 15 New Jersey congressmen who are controlled, befriended, or allied by them will certainly not accept Kahn's lobbying and go to see Judd and Ivan .

Not to mention the three-month expansion plan of Panda Restaurant, which has already launched in New York, New Jersey and medium-sized cities in Virginia.

The first step plan is to establish 62 restaurants in New York City and New Jersey near New York City, the most prosperous areas, such as the Giants' old stadium, and the four largest cities in Virginia near Richmond.

This step of the plan alone has already made 36 congressmen from the three states, and 19 military officers with at least the rank of colonel, besides work, their minds are basically on how to join.

In case I am not selected in the next term, I will lose the right to join further.

Of course, Li Changheng did not close all the doors to the unelected MPs.

After all, if they were not selected in this session, they might be selected in the next session, and these people's local influence and network are still very strong.

And after these 62 companies are established, the 10 million raised from 36 congressmen and 19 military officers three months ago will almost be used up.

At that time, the market value of Panda Restaurant will not be 400 million, at least it will soar to 500 or 600 million.

In the case of refinancing, the same 2.5% is not 10 million, but 15 million.

The financing is done once a year, and when Panda Restaurant is about to go public four years later, people like Horton have just been able to obtain 10% of the financing shares.

In addition, Li Changheng's jungler's 15% of the original stock was sold to them at a 30% discount, and it happened to be stuck at the 25% point that could not become a big climate and made people unable to give up.

In short, it is to keep all the funds in the hands of Holden and others in their own hands until Panda Restaurant is listed.

As for how to do this, you just need to come up with a second-step plan that makes these people look forward to, dare not not vote, and even join willingly.

The second step is also very simple, to establish more than 240 restaurants in other big cities in New York, New Jersey, and Virginia.

In New York State alone, each of the 62 counties is located in the most prosperous area, which is enough to build 124 panda restaurants.

As for New Jersey and Virginia, according to the operation manager of Panda Restaurant, Jim who went to the moon with Li Changheng, and the management team of Annie.

If you want to ensure profitability, first set up 48 and 70 companies in medium-sized cities with a population of more than 50,000 to test the waters.

That is to say, it will take 24 months for 242 companies to set up one company every three days just to deeply cultivate the market in these three states.

At that time, there will be 469 restaurants with independent store property rights, and the valuation of 1.2 billion will be considered small.

So as long as Li Changheng does not go too far, the congressmen of these three states, together with the military officers in Virginia, will definitely protect Li Changheng desperately for the sake of profit in recent years, and similar methods will be re-elected or promoted.

With the protection of the three eastern states, Li Changheng can be regarded as a consortium.

After all, the Texas consortium, the Cleveland consortium, and the Chicago consortium whose headquarters are all in one state can all become consortiums.

I don't believe that I hold dozens of congressmen from three states and the military forces on the east coast of the United States, and I will easily become a fat sheep in others' mouths.

So when Kahn asked Horton's congressmen for help, they didn't think much of the bribes of 150,000 to 200,000 U.S. dollars.

On the contrary, the people on Horton's side hoped that some congressman in New Jersey would be unlucky, so that their next election would be much easier.

There are too many people who refuse, which is why Kahn feels that there is a problem in his heart.

Unfortunately, since he and Senator Bob Howard were photographed carrying suitcases containing 100,000 and 200,000 dollars, Kahn's end was already doomed.

Judd, Ivan and Hilde, after meeting the last representative, there is only one task left.

That is to lure the forces that are targeting Atlantic City, and the Manzoni family has entered the game.

After all, for Li Changheng, who is easy to make money, and for the Manzoni family and the Southern Grays who have overshadowed him, to a certain extent, they are his first goals.

Two days later, the news of Judd's naturalization was not disclosed by the media because there were no clear photos and evidence.

But this is no secret to many people.

There was no accident, although everyone was waiting for Judd to formally propose to Atlantic City to buy a large enough beach land on the beach that was specially designated for the establishment of a casino hotel.

However, in the small town of Atlantic City not far from the beach, some people have secretly started small-scale acquisitions of land and buildings close to the beach.

The purpose is nothing more than to take a gamble before the land price rises.

At the beginning, this kind of business was only done by those well-informed and relatively modest financial forces in New Jersey.

Three days later, Judd received news that his naturalization application had reached the stage where he could become an American with the approval of the Immigration Bureau.

Accompanied by Kahn, Judd appeared on the beach in Atlantic City.

Now the media door, who had already smelled the big news, immediately got the first-hand photos.

As soon as the news broke, the land on the beach became fragrant.
