Chapter 156 The Casino Is Built

"As you grow up, you will find that one of your two hands is for self-help, and the other is for helping others. When I am able, I hope to provide what I can to those who need help. In the United States, I also have similar foundations, and my family and I have also donated to many universities.” Foundations are a good means of money laundering and tax avoidance, and donating to universities is conducive to getting to know more upper-class people Social figures can also help their own people to enter the university more conveniently, which is also of great benefit to the future talent training of the Corleone family.

Don’t be afraid of dirty hands, as long as you wash them in time, your hands in public are still spotless. Since Rockefeller, a capitalist who directly used the army to deal with strikers, can become a great person through charity, why doesn’t the Corleone family Can?

In the last two films of "The Godfather", Mike has been committed to whitewashing. Shen Long does not agree with many of the methods, but the general direction is still correct. Not many underworld families can continue forever. Either they are whitewashed or they are killed. Instead, there is no third option.

Audrey Hepburn was moved again, she felt that this sentence was spoken to her heart, how could she know that this sentence was originally her own famous saying, how could it be unsuccessful to impress Hepburn with Hepburn's words?

"However, charity is not just about donating money. I also need a local who is familiar with the Netherlands and ballet to help me manage the funds. Dear Mrs. Hepburn, I don't know if I have the honor to invite you to be this Where is the person in charge of the foundation? I believe that with your ability and social connections, you will be able to easily complete this task." Mrs. Hepburn has the title of baroness, and her previous husband was a banker, so she has both abilities and social connections.

"It is also my honor to be able to help children." Mrs. Hepburn nodded slightly, and agreed to Shen Long's invitation with the reserved and tactful language that nobles used to.

Shen Long didn't say anything about remuneration. It's not suitable to mention it directly in front of a nobleman. Even though Mrs. Hepburn has fallen to the point where she has only one name left, it's good for everyone to tacitly understand these matters. The Foundation will naturally Give her a deal that will allow her to live a comfortable and decent life in Holland.

"Next, I will go to Sicily to see Johnny's filming progress, and then return to the United States. I think if it is convenient, it is best for Audrey to go to Hollywood with me. Although she is talented, she has not studied before. , and have relatively little performance experience, so it is best to have professional training in advance, and I will help her arrange the best teacher." Shen Long tentatively asked, if everything goes well, they can temporarily separate their mother and daughter.

"Audrey has never left home alone, and now she is going to the United States on the other side of the ocean." Mrs. Hepburn hesitated. She also wanted to go with Hepburn, but what should the foundation do in this case?

"Mom, don't worry, didn't I always go to boarding school when I was a child?" Audrey Hepburn persuaded,

Although she was reluctant to part with her mother, she was also unwilling to lose this opportunity, and she was even more unwilling to let those children with poor financial conditions wait for a long time.

"I think it can be arranged like this. You first use this time to complete the preliminary work of the foundation, and then go to the United States with Audrey to see Hollywood and her teacher. After you feel relieved, you will return to the Netherlands to host the foundation. , At most one or two years, the foundation will be on the right track, then you don't need to stay in the Netherlands, you can go to the United States to live with Audrey." Shen Long suggested.

In this way, Mrs. Hepburn can rest assured that she can also spend a year or two alone with Audrey Hepburn. Everyone knows that a girl is always lonely when she is alone and needs comfort and care from others. One of the reasons why girls are particularly eager for love as soon as they go to college.

In a year or two, I should be able to win Audrey Hepburn, and I don't have to worry about Mrs. Hepburn coming to the United States from the Netherlands again.

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

"Thank you for your compliment, then I will take my leave first, and I will arrange someone to come over and communicate with you about the foundation later." Shen Long said goodbye politely.

The next day, Shen Long's business elites came, and Mrs. Hepburn sympathetically asked Audrey Hepburn to accompany Shen Long on a tour around Anheng to see the beautiful scenery of the place; when they came back, the matter had already been discussed , From the smile on Mrs. Hepburn's face, it can be seen that she is very satisfied with the scale of the foundation and her treatment.

Shen Long gave them a few days to spend alone so that they could make their own preparations, while he went to Sicily to track the filming progress of "Paradise Cinema". There are local dignitaries and venues, and the filming went very smoothly.

"James Huang's technique is really good, he will definitely win the Oscar for Best Cinematography with this film!" Johnny said excitedly to Shen Long.

"He does have this ability, and I will fight for you when the award season comes." It is much easier for Shen Long to win a statuette for someone now than for Weinstein in the future.

Shen Long had a chat with Huang Zongzhan alone, and tested the relationship between him and the Hongmen. The result was not beyond Shen Long's expectations. Although he was not from the Hongmen, he did know a few people who were in the Hongmen. Influential people; Shen Long wrote down these one by one, and asked Huang Zongzhan to help pass the message that he wanted to chat with these people.

Huang Zongzhan also vaguely knew a little bit about the business of the Corleone family, thought it was some cooperation from the underground world, so he agreed without any doubts, and went to contact Shen Long after he finished filming and returned to the United States.

After coming to Europe, he established several new smuggling routes, negotiated business in several countries, and most importantly met Audrey Hepburn. Shen Long was very happy.

After leaving Sicily, he returned to the Netherlands, picked up Hepburn and her daughter and flew to Hollywood, rented them a big house in Beverly Hills, and invited some of the best female teachers in Hollywood to help Ao Dai Li - Hepburn to study, both mother and daughter are very satisfied.

Unfortunately, at this time, Shen Long had to leave Hollywood and go to Las Vegas, because there was news from Mo Green that the casino had already been built!
