Siheyuan: Taking over the steel mill
Chapter 155 Seems a Little Surprising
As soon as this was said, the director's eyes instantly brightened, "Indeed, both Andy and Fat Tsai are very suitable for the roles in the play, both in terms of image and popularity. It is rare to be able to invite them to join the project."
Although the two artists have not yet reached their peak prices, they are already cutting-edge talents in the industry. Therefore, the director was initially hesitant about whether to invite them to join due to concerns about his limited resources, but when he heard that everything had been arranged in advance by Su Chen, he was overwhelmed with joy.
"Okay, I accept all your conditions. Let's sign the contract now and start building a team right away!" Faced with such a high-quality cooperation proposal, the director was obviously eager to start this journey. So, after checking the contract and finding nothing wrong, he signed it without hesitation.
Su Chen, who was still hesitant, was quite satisfied with the other party's enthusiastic attitude. After the preparations for the film were completed, he would have some free time, so he thought about going to Macau next door to try his hand at night and experience the local ** culture.
Su Chen had no intention of betting too much in **, but since he was in ** and it was only a stone's throw away from Macau, why not relax and experience the local customs? After saying goodbye to the director, he gathered his entourage and returned to the hotel together, and told them about his plans for the evening:
"Tonight I want to go to nearby Macau to try my luck. If you are willing to go, you can go with me. If you don't want to go, you can arrange your time at will." However, in the face of this proposal, except for the secretary who expressed his willingness to accompany me, the other lawyers refused for security reasons. It is obvious that they were not interested in the ** places of that era.
Of course, Su Chen had no plan to make a living from this, he just played for fun. Therefore, when he found that others were not interested, he did not encourage them to go together.
As for Yang Xue, she had no interest in this. Her plan was to sort out the items she had purchased today and also buy some extra gifts to give to her parents when she got back.
Seeing that Yang Xue wanted to rest in the hotel, Su Chen had to go to the nearby Ao Village alone to try his luck a few times.
However, working alone also has its own fun. Su Chen thought it would be a good idea to find out the truth first. After all, if there was a chance to sell these ships to the big guys in the gambling world in the future, this would be a good source of topic.
Soon, Su Chen took a ferry to the neighboring Ao Village. There were neon lights flashing here at night, and there was an endless stream of visitors, many of whom came here specifically to have sex. There were especially many visitors from the inland areas, because sex was illegal there, but it was completely legal in Ao Village.
Following the moving crowd, Su Chen aimlessly explored this once inconspicuous fishing village which had been transformed by the prosperity of the fishing industry.
Su Chen chose a gorgeous building and stepped inside. This was a large-scale casino in the local area. The door was crowded with people, filled with the sound of chips colliding and the pleasant ringing of video game machines, creating a tense and exciting atmosphere.
Su Chen, who had walked in, was quite interested in the interior layout of **. After exchanging some chips at the service desk, he planned to play a few games.
Su Chen first stopped in front of a Blackjack table. The rules of this game were simple and straightforward, and soon attracted everyone's attention. After watching a few rounds on the sidelines and understanding the rules, he joined the game and put in a chip.
He did not have high expectations for making money, and he just regarded it as a way to relax. Even though the cards he got were average, he remained calm and judged that the current 19 points were strong enough.
The other players seemed to be regulars in the casino, and their emotions were quite excited, which formed a sharp contrast with Su Chen's calm attitude. At the end of the round, when the last hand was turned over, Su Chen did have the best solution.
After winning this small victory, Su Chen did not continue to waste too much time on Blackjack, but changed his target and tried a few hands of Texas Hold'em and arcade games. He was not unfamiliar with these two, but he did not have much experience in playing them himself.
After these games, Su Chen had a deeper understanding of this kind of game - they were just like that. In every game, whether it was good luck or the accurate judgment of his fast-moving brain, Su Chen almost always won. It seemed that he had a good talent in **, and complex calculations seemed very simple and clear to him.
But this short attempt also taught Su Chen one thing: gambling cannot be the main means of accumulating wealth. By observing the results of several rounds of competition and the actions of the participants, he realized that the real way to make money from gambling is in the long term rather than in the short term - as long as you keep betting, you will eventually encounter a day of loss.
Even if he could get out of this unscathed, there would be many people behind him who would lose money as a scapegoat, so ** would always make a profit. **Su Chen shook his head slightly, thinking to himself: "No wonder it is often said that those who open ** earn more than those who sell."
However, most people often find it difficult to control themselves when faced with the opportunity to "get rich quickly". Su Chen knows that the nature of gamblers will almost never change.
After experiencing the excitement for just a moment, Su Chen decisively stopped and went to the front desk to exchange the chips.
Since his bet was not large, the final ten thousand yuan turned into thirteen thousand yuan. Although it was not a huge income, it was considerable for those who had lost everything.
To him, this was just a game, and he did not feel much joy from the profits.
After experiencing that kind of ** atmosphere, **Su Chen gained some insights into how to deal with gambling masters in the future, and it also brought more inspiration to the movie "God of Gamblers".
But he did not express these thoughts immediately. Everything had to go according to the director's arrangement. After the game ended, Su Chen returned. ** [Too much sensitive content, unable to continue output]
However, he was not afraid of what was about to happen.
In fact, Su Chen is no longer as incompetent as he was when he first arrived here. He controls more and more factories, which makes him look forward to the coming New Year. All plans are progressing step by step, and the days of the Red Star Steel Rolling Mill will gradually get better.
However, this was not a good time to think about work. Su Chen hugged Yang Xue and turned over gently. The night in Hong Kong was getting darker and darker, and the lights in the room were gradually dimming.
As the night faded and a new day began, Su Chen was refreshed and set off on the journey back to the mainland with Yang Xue and other companions. The work affairs in Hong Kong had been properly resolved, and the new ideas for the movie "God of Gamblers" had been conveyed to the director via fax. Without worrying about the possible surprise on the director's end, Su Chen and his group boarded the train to Sijiu City again. The New Year was just around the corner, and he also needed to start booking New Year gifts for all the employees in the factory.
Whether it is a festival or before a festival, it is always necessary to distribute gifts to the workers. Su Chen knows this well. He knows that it is the hard work of the workers that ensures the efficient operation of production. As a thank you, he considers ordering a batch of small gifts - although these things are not valuable, they can enhance the enthusiasm and morale of the workers. For him, such an expense is actually a worthwhile investment.
In the past, the factory would prepare traditional foods such as canned yellow peaches and maltose paste during the New Year, and this year was no exception. On the way back, on the train, Assistant Zhang took the initiative to ask: "Director, should we order canned yellow peaches and maltose paste for the upcoming New Year's Day according to the previous rules?" Su Chen nodded and replied: "That's it. Except for canned yellow peaches and maltose paste, you can decide on other aspects at your discretion, and the quantity will be doubled." Since the company's performance this year is excellent, it is natural to spend more money on New Year's gifts. Assistant Zhang understands that Su Chen is not a stingy leader, so he was not surprised to hear the news and agreed: "I understand, I will arrange this matter immediately after I return."
Just when Su Chen and his companions were preparing to take the train back to Sijiu City, in another distant place, Colonel Ka contacted a man named Sha Damu.
With the help of Suchen's advanced crawler tractors, Colonel Ka has established an unparalleled advantage over the countries around him. But relying solely on powerful force is not in line with his strategy, he also needs allies.
Faced with the potential threat from the United States, Colonel Kamagra is well aware of the truth that "the enemy of my enemy is my ally", so he actively seeks partners for cooperation.
It just so happens that the geographical location between Shadamu's country and Cardinal's country is separated by two continents, there is no direct conflict, and both sides have the same religious beliefs.
Based on the above conditions, the two hit it off and decided to unite to fight against their common enemy, America. When Shadamu heard that Colonel Ka had a revolutionary invention, the crawler tractor, he was very curious. He was very interested in this novel thing. Even before Colonel Ka officially invited him, he took the initiative to contact him and expressed his wish to visit Colonel Ka's country for a field trip.
Colonel Ka seemed a little surprised when he received the call from Shadamu: "Do you want to come for a visit?" On the other end of the phone, Shadamu's voice was affirmative and full of enthusiasm: "Of course, I especially want to see the crawler tractor corps you mentioned."
The international conversation between the two of them certainly attracted a lot of attention. Therefore, neither Kadazo nor Shadamu explained the details of the incident in depth. They just quickly confirmed the information that Shadamu was going to visit and ended the conversation.
After Shadamu hung up the phone, he immediately instructed his men to prepare the plane and related travel matters. Not long after, he received a message from Shadamu, who expressed his welcome to come.
After receiving the invitation from Colonel Ka, Shadamu immediately set out to visit Libya in person. Both of them came from the battlefield, so there was no need for too many polite words.
When Shadamu just got off the plane, Colonel Ka did not arrange any catering for him, but directly led him to visit his newly formed special armored force, which was once prominent in the north of the Black Continent.
