Chapter 159 Mike's Future

Tom Hagen felt quite complicated when he saw Shen Long's operation. If it were Godfather or Santino, it would be another operation to get Mo Green's shares. The old Godfather might be more tactful. , but they will still use gangster methods, and Santino is afraid that he will directly lead people to kill Mo Green.

However, Shen Long did nothing. He just said a few words and lured Mo Green's accomplices to kill him. He got what he wanted without getting any blood on his hands. This kind of method is not good at all. He doesn't look like a gangster, but rather looks a bit like those Wall Street financial tycoons.

Perhaps the Corleone family will usher in a huge change, and this change will be beneficial to Tom. He knows that his strengths are different from Abbandandu, the Corleone family's old strategist. Abbandandu is better at solving gangs. As a lawyer, he is more accustomed to using legal means to solve problems. Under Shen Long, he has more room to develop.

"Fredo, where are you going? The casino's problem must be solved as soon as possible. It's not good to lose hundreds of thousands every month." Tom asked. He was unable to solve the problem of the casino's losses.

"I heard that Mike will soon have enough credits to graduate. I'm going to Dartmouth University to visit him. As for the hotel, you don't have to worry about it. I've already thought of a way. Just hold on for two more months. If we just get It doesn’t sound good to spread the word about turning a loss into a profit after acquiring shares.” This will make other people think that Mo Green’s death was his own fault. Although he did die because of himself, what is the truth and what are the rumors. Why is everything still different?

"Please help me keep an eye on these two people during this period and find out their whereabouts. When I come back next time, we will start doing this." Shen Long reported two names. It would not be a big deal to lose money for two more months. Yes, as long as it operates according to its own plan, it won't take long for the Flamingo Hotel to turn losses into profits.

After leaving Las Vegas, Shen Long took Albert Neri to fly to the small town of Hanover, New Hampshire, where Dartmouth University is located.

"Hi, Fredo, I watched that movie "Cinema Paradiso" and it was great! Kai also liked it very much." The brothers hadn't seen each other for a long time. Mike gave him a warm hug and brought Shen Long with Kai. to the café, while Albert stayed in the car.

"Johnny did a good job. He made a special trip back to New York and watched the movie with the old man. The old man was also very happy." This Sicilian-style movie won the praise of the old godfather and the recognition of the audience. Since then, Since its release, the box office performance has been very good, and the Corleone Family Film Studio's first film has achieved profitability.

Because this film uses many shooting techniques and narrative techniques from later generations, the Oscar judges also spoke highly of this film. Judging from the current rumors, "Cinema Paradiso" won the best film and best director. , the chances of winning awards such as Best Screenplay and Best Cinematography are very high. Shen Long is seizing the time to operate. It is basically a foregone conclusion that this movie will become a well-received and popular movie.

"I heard from Johnny that you wrote the script of this movie, but it's a pity that you can't get the statuette!" After all, Mike is a member of the family and knows a lot of information.

"I have no interest in these. The company will also shoot a new movie in a while. This movie is equally good. You can go and watch it with Kai then." The preparations for "Roman Holiday" are nearing completion. It's time to start shooting.

The three of them chatted for a while. Kai felt that they had something to say alone, so he went back on the pretext that he needed to catch up on his papers. After he left, Shen Long asked, "Mike, I heard that you will graduate soon? Yes. Haven’t you thought about what you will do in the future?”

"I have already received internship opportunities from several companies, but I am still hesitating." Mike looked at Shen Long with some doubts in his heart, "Fredo, are you asking me to go home and help?"

"No, no, no, Sonny and I have no choice but to do this. After all, we come from this kind of family, but you are different. You have never participated in any family affairs, you have a clean resume, and you are a hero in World War II. You don't You should be implicated by the family, and you can do what you want." Shen Long shook his head repeatedly, he still wanted to complete the task, how could he let Mike go home.

"And during this time, I have been busy adjusting the family's business structure. In the future, the Corleone family will gradually reduce its business in other areas and shift the family's main energy to Las Vegas and Hollywood." From now on, the United States will start to expand on a large scale. There are still more than twenty years left to fight against the gangs, which is enough to clear the family's name.

"I came to you this time because I heard a piece of news that I thought might be useful to you." Shen Long lowered his voice and said, "Didn't you say before that you had considered entering politics?"

"It's just an idea, but I haven't found a suitable channel yet." Mike hesitated. He knew that his family was involved with some politicians, but he didn't want to use these resources.

"That's good. I happen to have a suitable opportunity here. It has nothing to do with the family. You can decide whether to take advantage of this opportunity after listening to it." Shen Long said, "I heard that the Chief of Staff of the Army, Five-star General Eisenhower, is considering it recently. After retiring and entering politics, he plans to first serve as president of Columbia University for a period of time, and then participate in the next presidential election."

The next presidential election will be held next year. Truman was successfully re-elected. After Truman, it was Eisenhower's turn to take office. If he could join his campaign team, it would be of great benefit to Mike's political future.

"Where did you get the information? Is it reliable?" Mike quickly calculated whether the information was useful to him.

"The channel cannot be disclosed for the time being, but I promise it is very reliable." I can't say that I saw it in a history book, right? "A magazine conducted a poll this year, and the results showed that as long as Eisenhower is willing, both parties are willing to nominate him. As a presidential candidate; large financial groups such as Rockefeller, Morgan, DuPont and Mellon all took a fancy to him, because his post-war policy propositions of military expansion, war preparation, and outward expansion were in line with the interests of large financial groups."
