Chapter 835

Before there is a personal crisis, the upper-class families in the United States will of course have the same anxiety as Randall.

But Li Changheng is very clear that these people can't really become his help and intervene in the battle with the mafia.

After all, these people do not lack money, but few families have the ability and qualifications to form a group with hundreds of people. The combatants are all retired elites, and they are extremely powerful in terms of intelligence.

It is impossible for Carnegie to have 3,000 private armed forces in the United States.

Since a family like Randall is worried about being targeted, Li Changheng understands that most rich people cannot really stand on his side.

But it does not prevent him from using the concerns of people like Randall to create an unsafe atmosphere and force his opponents to benefit for himself.

And to be honest, even though the mafia has asked for negotiations, Li Changheng still feels uncomfortable.

After planning for so long, the process has already reached the stage of closing the net, and suddenly being interrupted by someone, I feel uncomfortable thinking about it.

Of course, Li Changheng will not really do what Randall said.

If that's the case, it's tantamount to being a thug.

However, since the possibility of war is extremely low, it does not prevent one or two godfathers from being forced to retire.

That night, more than a dozen TV stations, radio stations, and dozens of newspapers began to publicize the shooting. On the surface, it was no different from shootings that happened every day.

But as long as someone guides it, countless Americans can easily understand the difference between gang vendetta and assassination of witnesses.

Even if the mafia wants to use the media to fight back, or use other news to divert public attention, but with Li Changheng's first-mover advantage, a storm of public opinion cannot be stopped.

In one night and one morning, at least tens of millions of people watch TV, listen to the radio, or read newspapers.

In addition, the oil crisis has begun to show its power. People who are not sure about whether their daily expenses have increased greatly but their income has not increased, and whether they can keep their jobs, have been easily provoked by the media to become uneasy and irritable.

Moreover, through the conversation with Randall, Li Changheng understood that he didn't actually have to end the game himself.

As long as the interests are sufficient, some people will help them suppress and kill their opponents.

The next morning, Li Changheng, who was staying in Citigroup's own office, not only received a dozen calls, but even many shareholders of Citigroup came to see him.

After the last lobbyist was sent away by Li Changheng, Taylor Garnell stood beside him and said in a low voice, "Boss, I think the request you are making now, as long as it is not excessive and does not affect the interests of most people.

As soon as you bring it up, some people are willing to help you complete it.

After all, the entire United States needs stability under the oil crisis, and you need to lead everyone to earn extra money to make up for the losses caused by the oil crisis. "

"I know", Li Changheng looked at the sea and the huge Statue of Liberty in the distance through the huge falling glass window for a while.

Then he said to Taylor, "Do you think that if Citigroup gets involved in the gaming industry, it will have a negative impact on the company's reputation?"

Taylor was taken aback for a moment, and then looked at Li Changheng in surprise.

The big boss has always attached great importance to his reputation, but now he has started to focus on the Atlantic City project sold to the islanders last year.

Seeing Taylor in a daze, he couldn't help thinking how much the boss hated the islanders, so he would do such a contradictory thing.

But as soon as this idea came into being, Taylor quickly realized that this matter must not be that simple.

Moreover, the layer-by-layer holding method can easily avoid damage to Citigroup's reputation.

"As long as Citigroup does not directly appear on the list of shareholders, I think shareholders will definitely not object.

Still, are you sure the average person would have the extra money to go to Atlantic City in this economy? "

Li Changheng glanced sideways at Taylor, and said with a smile, "Think carefully, every time there is an economic crisis, do you have the idea of ​​reducing the travel budget?"

There is no need to think about this question at all, Taylor nodded quickly.

Lee Jang Hyung continued, "People who like to watch opera go to the movies when they have no money.

Those east coast tourists who want to go to Las Vegas, do they expect to have a Gaming City beside them?

Moreover, it takes time to complete. After a few years, the proportion of people who are under a lot of pressure and want to go out for a walk will be even greater? "

Taylor nodded again with bright eyes, and Li Changheng then said, "Besides, the design and decoration of Xinbocai City are better than Las Vegas.

Atlantic City, which is promoted as a seaside tourist city instead of gambling, attracts residents of New York, Philadelphia, Washington and other cities, and it is not difficult to come up with the idea of ​​​​going to see it.

As for the poor and bankrupt, they were not the customer group of Bocai City in the first place. "

This time, Taylor had an excited expression on his face. The tourist city indeed has a larger customer base than the gaming city.

Once this concept is hyped up, it will definitely attract capital.

Moreover, while the hotel groups in Las Vegas regard Atlantic City as their opponent, they will be forced to spend their energy and wealth on how to transform it into a tourist city.

A disguised form of sizzling tourism city concept.

At that time, just by selling it, Citigroup will be able to earn billions of dollars in benefits.

Not to mention that if it is really what Li Changheng said, it will be a long-term and stable source of income.

After thinking about this, Taylor looked at Li Changheng's side face with some admiration.

However, considering that Li Changheng was dealing with the Mafia at a critical moment, and he also brought up the matter of Atlantic City, Taylor, who lowered his head in thought, quickly understood and asked cautiously.

"Boss, are you planning to use capital to force the mafia to act as thugs?"

The corner of Li Changheng's mouth twitched, "Since there is no way to kill a potential enemy with a single blow, then we should use more force to suppress the enemy and have no time to retaliate.

Then bind them with interests.

Use the right to operate the hotel to bring more jealousy and envy to these mafias.

When the time comes to divide and win over, the Tataglia and Basini families, let alone thinking about how to revenge me, whether they can continue to exist is a question.

Islanders don't overpay so easily. "

Rod Jonathan, who was arrested by the "Reading" Bureau, only cooperates with the Tattaglia and Basini families, which means that Li Changheng has not really acted yet.

Those who hate him and fear him are only these two families for the time being.

After hearing this, Taylor couldn't help but twitched the corners of his mouth.

The interests of Atlantic City are not yet clear until the real intervention and opening.

But not only did Li Changheng not plan to do it himself, but he used his reputation and long-standing achievements to force Tataglia and the Basini family to death.

Although he didn't know if the plan would be successful, Taylor asked more respectfully, "Aside from dealing with the mafia, do you have any other requirements?"

Someone helped to communicate with the major forces, of course Li Changheng didn't want to end up negotiating with them himself.

And if you talk about it with your confidantes, it's the same as a lawyer talking about an acquisition, so as to avoid the big boss talking in person and getting too angry and talking about it.

"In addition to banning the New York Special Investigation Unit, I heard that the current Attorney General of New York seems to be a racist."

Taylor rolled his eyes momentarily.
