Chapter 157

"With 3,500 guest rooms, the Flamingo is not only the first luxury hotel in Las Vegas, but also the most luxurious hotel in the world. It will soon become the focus of Las Vegas!" Mo - Green stood in front of the hotel and enthusiastically introduced the hotel's situation to Shen Long.

Above the hotel is a pink flamingo sculpture, which contrasts with Mo Green's lover Virginia Hill in a pink coat; and next to the hotel entrance is a garden with many fires. Flamingos, pink flamingos take a leisurely walk in the garden.

In the pool behind the hotel, there is actually a group of koi carps. According to Mo Green, this was arranged by a Feng Shui master from Chinatown, saying that this can bring a steady stream of money to the hotel.

Once inside, there are not only luxuriously decorated hotel rooms, international restaurants with top chefs, but of course the essential casino in Las Vegas.

Slot machines are arranged in vertical rows, and at a glance there is no tail; the huge roulette wheel whirrs, and the ivory balls hit the grille with a crisp sound; the croupiers shake the dice; the green On the tablecloth, playing cards were dealt from the dealer's hand to the gamblers' hands. The waitresses in cool clothes walked around among the crowd. From time to time, lucky gamblers stuffed their chips into their garters or put their chips in their stockings. In the ditch; the burly security guard was in an inconspicuous corner, alertly paying attention to everything that happened in the venue.

"The damn air conditioning problem has finally been solved. You won't feel the heat of Las Vegas at all here. This is a paradise for gamblers from all over the world!" Mo Green opened his arms and said, I don't know why, Seeing his posture and tone, Shen Long always felt that what he was saying was, look, this is my kingdom!

Everything looks so beautiful. No matter in terms of the size of the casino, decoration level, or service level, it is far better than Las Vegas or even all the casinos in the world, but if there are not so few gamblers coming to play, Even better.

Compared with the size of the casino, the number of gaming tables, dealers, waiters and security guards, the number of gamblers who come to gamble seems to be too few, and the chips in their hands are not very many.

"Mo, you are indeed a genius in casino construction." Shen Long shrugged, "But can you tell me why there are only so few people in the casino now?"

"Um, it's just a trial operation now, it hasn't officially opened yet! It will be fine after the official opening. The Flamingo is so great, those who love gambling will not stop coming here." Mo Green still looked confident.

"That's good, otherwise, if you continue like this, you won't be able to make the profit we originally agreed on!" Shen Long said lightly. He knew clearly that the Flamingo Hotel had been losing money for a few months after it opened. They were losing hundreds of thousands of dollars every month, forcing them to temporarily close their doors. It wasn't until they reopened two years later that they became popular.

By the new century, the Flamingo Hotel has become one of the destinations that tourists and gamblers from all over the world will choose when they come to Las Vegas. The value of this hotel has also soared from the current US$6 million to US$100 billion. .

Shen Long's words put a lot of pressure on Mo Green. In the movie, he dared to speak rudely to Mike. Firstly, it was because of his nature; secondly, the Flamingo Hotel had already achieved profitability, and he felt that the Corleone family was responsible for it. The third most important point is that after Santino's death, the Corleone family has been on the defensive, and its status in the American underworld has continued to decline.

And now, Shen Long has decisively killed the patriarchs and core forces of the four major families in New York, completely wiping out the previously arrogant Bassini family, the Strazzi family, the Cuneo family and the Tartaglia family, and the Corleone family. Under the leadership of Shen Long, the reputation is even greater than when the old godfather was in power. When talking to such a big boss, Mo Green naturally has to be more reserved.

He has a rough personality and is not a fool. He will not and dare not easily offend the man in front of him who is at the top of the American underground world. However, he is full of confidence in this hotel that carries all his passions and dreams, "Frey If it’s more, you can rest assured that within three months at most, the hotel will definitely be able to make a profit!”

"That's good, Mo. I don't want to use the special clauses in the contract." Shen Long reminded that there is still a gambling agreement between them. If the profit does not meet the requirements, Mo - Green's shares will be acquired by Shen Long. "This hotel has taken up too much of the Corleone family's funds. It is not an easy task to allocate funds to acquire your shares at this time."

Shen Long also showed some reluctance. In fact, it was the same for everyone. Seeing that this hotel was losing money, how many people were still willing to spend money to buy Mo Green's shares?

But in fact, Shen Long knew the prospects of this hotel and was confident that he could make this hotel better and better under his control. He had already thought of a way to promote the hotel and arranged the acquisition of Mo Green's shares. Funding, but these have to wait until the Flamingo Hotel is completely owned by me.

Mo Green also felt the pressure. You must know that the funds he raised were not entirely his own, and a considerable part was misappropriated from the public funds of his gang. People in the gang had long been dissatisfied with him, and they just looked at the Flamingo Hotel. It has been built so that there is no attack. If Mo Green can't bring them enough profits, they will definitely find trouble with Mo Green.

In the following days, after large-scale publicity, the Flamingo Hotel officially opened to the public, but the situation did not seem to be as good as Mo Green expected. The high-end decoration and consumption of the Flamingo Hotel discouraged many gamblers. Every day in the casino There weren't many people inside, and the hotel's air conditioner had to be on all the time, and the security guards and waiters had to be on staff all the time.

Expenses such as water, electricity, labor, etc. weighed down Mo Greene. When the accounts were calculated at the end of the first month, the Flamingo Hotel not only made no money, but also lost hundreds of thousands.

Shen Long pretended to be angry, but Mo Green's accomplices were really angry, but they all decided to give Mo Green some more time.

Three months have passed, and the hotel still has not made a profit. The total loss in the three months has reached more than one million U.S. dollars. At this time, Mo Green's associates can no longer support it.

They sent a representative to find Shen Long, "Dear Don Corleone, are you still planning to acquire Mo Green's shares?"
