Dong Jianguo bought this place and spent a lot of money to build a high-end private club. In addition to leaving his own villa, most of the other mansions were rented out to club members for winter vacations.
At this time, Ivanka held Lu Fei's arm with her shy belly and walked into the house. She saw her somewhat crazy father with a golden hair on his head and a bright red tie as always.
"dad!"
"Humph, why are you here? You should stay at home when you're pregnant!" Dong Jianguo snorted angrily.
"Isn't it because my grandson misses his grandfather too much?"
Ivanka touched her belly.
Dong Jianguo pretended to be confused, "Grandson? What grandson? Who is my grandson's father?"
"Who else could it be? Of course it's him."
Ivanka glanced at Lu Fei.
"Haha, you kid still dare to come to see me!"
Dong Jianguo's eyebrows kept twitching.
"Shouldn't I show up?"
Lu Fei was happy, I am the protagonist, you are a supporting role!
"You bastard! Is this your masterpiece?"
Dong Jianguo pointed at Ivanka’s belly.
"dad."
Ivanka glanced at Lu Fei helplessly and saw that he admitted it openly without even thinking about it, and her heart suddenly felt warm.
"Okay! Just admit it!"
Dong Jianguo narrowed his eyes, "When are you planning to get married? I don't want my daughter to get pregnant before we get married!"
"I am married."
Lu Fei stretched out the hand with the wedding ring on it.
"Fake Squid! You have the ability to get her pregnant, but you don't have the ability to marry her? Do you want her to give you an illegitimate child?"
Dong Jianguo said angrily: "If this is the case, I will never allow it! I will never allow my most beloved daughter to give birth to an illegitimate child for no reason, or give birth to you! I will never let our family be embarrassed! Ivanka, you
Listen to me!"
"dad."
Ivanka rolled her eyes and felt that her father was simply making a fuss out of a molehill. Compared with the ridiculous and romantic things he did, illegitimate children were not worth mentioning at all. What's more, illegitimate children also have the right to inherit!
"If you were my daughter, go and beat the child..."
Dong Jianguo was furious.
"Ahem, you can't let your daughter do this. Don't forget, you are still a member of the Elephant Party. Have you forgotten the core principle, abortion is prohibited?" Lu Fei looked confident.
"Fake! I'm going to quit the party!!"
Dong Jianguo's eyes widened as he was defeated.
"You'd better not do this. I heard from Ivanka that you want to run for the leadership. Just because of the conflict between you and Lucian, do you think you can still join the Donkey Party? If you really want to challenge that throne
If so, just stay like a gangster."
The corners of Lu Fei's mouth raised slightly.
After Dong Jianguo was exposed, he was furious, "Haha, although I am an elephant, Ivanka is a donkey, and she is free! She thinks..."
Lu Fei interrupted: "So you should respect her freedom more. If she hopes to have children, you should support her. And she hopes to give me more children, right, Ivanka?"
Everything is for his property! That's the reason!
Ivanka's face turned slightly red as she thought in her heart.
"What! One is not enough!!"
Dong Jianguo almost had his whole body twitched.
Killing someone, but also killing your heart?
Suddenly, I had the illusion that my caring little cotton-padded jacket had been stolen, and I even vaguely felt that the golden retriever was a little green, "How dare you!" He squeezed out the words through his teeth, "No matter how many children you have, there will definitely be none of them in the family fund."
share, and you, Ivanka, if you dare to give him more children, don’t even want your share!”
"Actually, it doesn't matter if you don't want to. I have already set up a trust fund for their mother and daughter and put some hundreds of millions of dollars into it."
Lu Fei raised his chin and stayed with me. I never care whether she has money or not. Anyway, she doesn’t have any money like me!
I hate Lu Fei so much! I hate Chinese people so much!
Dong Jianguo was speechless and his face turned red.
"Hey, don't get excited. In fact, Ivanka's pregnancy is a happy event for us. There is no need to make the relationship between the two of us so tense because of this." Lu Fei waved his hand, "I know you want to run for the position of commander-in-chief.
I can help you, and only I can help you."
"Haha, who do you think you are!"
Dong Jianguo dismissed it. His goal remained unchanged, which was to win the support of Charles Koch and the Koch family.
Just when the atmosphere was slowly sinking into awkwardness and dullness, the doorbell happened to ring and Charles Koch arrived.
"Go and stay in the study and don't come out."
Dong Jianguo didn’t want outsiders to see the pregnant Ivanka.
Ivanka stood up resentfully and hid in the study.
"Hey! Charles!"
When Dong Jianguo saw the figure of Charles Koch, he rushed towards him and took the initiative to say hello, but what he got in exchange was——
Hot face against cold butt.
Charles Koch responded coldly, but when he saw Lu Fei, he was uncharacteristically interested.
"Lu! I've always wanted to find a chance to get to know you."
"Me too."
Lu Fei shook hands with him and completely ignored Dong Jianguo. The two sat down face to face and started chatting.
Farke!
Obviously I came first! Obviously I am the host!
Dong Jianguo felt aggrieved and asked the servant to serve red wine.
"I know that the Walton family and the Mars family have all invested in your fund, and they have made a lot of gains over the years."
Charlesko has kind eyes.
"The Koch family is interested in taking a share?" Lu Fei asked.
"Is that okay?" said Charles Koch.
"You may have heard of my fund. It is not a Ponzi scheme like Madoff's, but a real investment and real profits." Lu Fei did not answer immediately.
"I know that many people and families want to join your fund, but your threshold is not low. But with the strength of the Koch family, do you have the qualifications?" Charles Koch said with a smile.
"If the Koch family is not qualified, there are not many who are." Lu Fei changed the topic, "But I am a person who has always been generous to my friends. I call it 'mutual benefit and win-win, mutual help'.
Especially people I consider to be good friends, like Buffett, like Gates."
"You will see how deep our friendship is."
Charles Koch raised his glass in a toast.
"cheers."
Lu Fei clinked glasses with him and took a big sip.
"Dry……"
The two looked at each other and ignored Dong Jianguo, who was holding a glass of wine. They were so embarrassed that they walked out of two rooms and one living room, feeling resentful in their hearts.
When I was 64, I stood like an ant.
"I know why you invited me here. Is it for the Elephant Party's sanctions list?" Charles Koch put down his wine glass.
"I would like to ask you to help me persuade some Elephant Party members to vote against it. It doesn't have to be too many, about six or seven votes. Is it difficult?"
Lu Fei's tone was serious.
"Six or seven votes is no small matter."
"If the bill was in the drafting stage, maybe I could easily help you stop it, but now a consensus has been reached within the Elephant Party and it will be submitted to the House of Representatives soon. If I change my mind at this time, I am afraid my friends will not agree, and neither will the leader of the Elephant Party.
Wouldn't agree." Charles Koch's implication was clear.
They are all my dearest relatives and friends, so I have to pay more!
Lu Fei narrowed his eyes, "I believe the owner can take good care of his tethered dog, he just needs to give him a few more dog bones."
"This is not just a few dog bones. In recent years, your company and Huawei have formed huge competition with Intel, Micron, Ericsson, Cisco, Apple, and many American companies, which has seriously threatened the future of our high-tech and national
core interests." Charles Koch shook his head and laughed.
"Oh, where did this great master who cares about the country and the people come from?" Lu Fei shook his wine glass.
"But it doesn't do me any harm."
Charles Koch pursed his lips.
"How can there be no harm? Don't forget that these companies are the vote holders and financial backers of the Donkey Party. The Donkey Party clearly supports 'environmental protection', supports new energy, and suppresses oil and natural gas."
Lu Fei sneered: "When I deal with these companies, don't I indirectly help Koch Industries? The enemy of my enemy is my friend."
"Yeah?"
Charles Koch did not accept this trick: "Didn't you also invest in new energy vehicles such as Tesla and BYD? Logic seems to have also invested in the photovoltaic industry. Even you and Buffett have repeatedly stood up for new energy. Lu, you
Aren’t you my enemy?”
"Of course not, I support diversified energy."
Lu Fei spread his hands, "Although I support environmental protection, I am opposed to extreme environmental protection. Therefore, wherever I can intervene in the media on Twitter, Facebook, YouTube, and Penguin, I have always opposed extreme environmental protection and have always given anti-environmentalists a chance to speak out.
and traffic.”
Then he took a sip of his wine and said, "The truth becomes clearer with each passing day. I think the organizations and experts you fund should also join the debate."
Charles Koch narrowed his eyes into a thin line.
"I have always felt that the Elephant Party is far inferior to the Donkey Party in terms of media. Whether it is traditional media or online media, they are far ahead. Almost 90% of the media are biased towards the Donkey Party. Now it is on the issue of environmental protection. The Elephant Party
The party is in a disadvantageous position, what will happen in the future?" Lu Fei vowed: "I can guarantee that within the scope of my ability, I will try my best not to let the Donkey Party completely overwhelm the Elephant Party. I strongly support freedom of speech."
"Lu, you are indeed powerful in the Internet and media, and are very attractive to me and my friends."
Charles Koch weighs the pros and cons.
Dong Jianguo looked at him from left to right and from Lu Fei to the right. His eyes finally fell on Lu Fei. It doesn’t matter that the Koch family is better than me. Why is a bastard who made my daughter’s belly better than me!
"But, I'm sorry, I can't stop the bill from passing, but I can find a way to take one off the list, and you should know which one it is." Charles Koch sighed.
"Yangtze River Storage." Lu Fei thought for a while.
"Yes, logic is impossible to take off the list."
Charles Koch said seriously: "Logic's sanction priority is the highest, because your logic is China's most technological and most feared technology company, and Yangtze Memory, although it has ranked second in the world, its market
The share is 10 points behind Samsung, and you made a financing commitment."
"Okay, but I have to take off another one."
Lu Fei pondered for a long time.
"Huawei is not good," reminded Charles Koch.
"No, it's complex core. I think it's impossible for sanctions to target these four companies." Lu Fei touched his chin, "If there is a complex core, it must be removed. Don't say it's impossible. I know, complex core
Far from threatening Intel and TSMC, it can at most compete with UMC, Samsung, and Infineon."
"It's not up to me, but I can convey your conditions to my friends, and they will consider them carefully."
Charles Koch was noncommittal.
"I'm waiting for your good news."
Lu Fei smiled.
From just now to now, Dong Jianguo has watched them chatting happily, but he has never been able to find a suitable moment to intervene. When the topic was over, he was about to chat with Charles Koch, but he never expected——
Lu Fei didn't finish it.
"I have another business, I wonder if Koch Industries is interested in it?"
"Lu's business must be big business."
Charles Koch wondered.
"You know, I helped a little with the Dubai debt crisis. The royal family was very grateful to me and gave me the mining rights to an oil field. But I understand that I don't understand energy and I don't have a company, so I have to find a suitable partner. Originally
I plan to find China National Aviation Oil, because I am a shareholder of China National Aviation Oil, but China National Aviation Oil does not have the conditions for extraction." Lu Fei stared at him playfully.
oil!
If you mention this, I won't be sleepy!
Charles Koch's eyes suddenly lit up.
"In addition, the UAE has entrusted me with something. Maybe you can help. By then, there will be more cooperation in oil and gas." Lu Fei acts as a middleman for the wealthy people in the Middle East.
"How can I help?" Charles Koch wondered.
"The UAE raised funds to buy Chartered Semiconductor, but they felt it was not enough. They have always hoped to strengthen their investment in semiconductors, such as acquiring ARM and investing in ASML, but you know, this requires many approvals." Lu Fei said quietly.
"You want me to convince the Elephant Party to give the green light to the Middle East consortium?" Charles Koch thought for a moment.
"That's right, I will be the lobbyist for the Donkey Party, and I will leave it to you for the Elephant Party. We will slowly discuss how to divide the cake with the benefits they promised us. What do you think?"
Lu Fei's words were full of temptation and full of petroleum flavor.
"That depends on their sincerity."
Their eyes met, and they smiled knowingly.
It was not until the moment of departure that Dong Jianguo finally found an opportunity to strike up a conversation with Charles Koch, but not surprisingly, he received no support from the Koch family except verbal support.
Lu Fei walked Charles Koch to the door and heard him ask in a low voice: "Are you friends with him too?"
"How is that possible? His daughter and I are good friends, and Ivanka is helping me manage the film company." Lu Fei shrugged.
"Then you'd better stay away from him. He is a complete 'stupid donkey' who actually wants to run for the position of commander-in-chief. Haha, he deserves it!" Charles Koch sneered.
"Aren't you going to support him? He just hopes you can support him this time." Lu Fei smiled even brighter.
"Then will you support him?" Charles Koch asked rhetorically.
"I am Chinese and cannot interfere in your internal affairs."
Lu Fei's eyes flashed with a cunning look.
"You, you."
Charles Koch left smiling.
"Where's the Charles!"
Behind him, Dong Jianguo's voice suddenly came.
"Gone." Lu Fei said in a joking tone.
"Farke! Farke! How could he leave like that! He didn't even support me! What a blind eye!"
Dong Jianguo cursed and spoke incoherently.
When Ivanka heard the noise and walked out of the study, she heard her father say angrily, "Old money is great! Our family is also old money!"
You are at best a real estate nouveau riche.
Lu Fei smacked his lips.
"What are you muttering about!"
Dong Jianguo said sensitively.
"I said it was really wise of you to run for the position of Commander-in-Chief!"
Lu Fei plays with taste.
"Are you mocking me?"
"No need to ridicule, the fact is that a political amateur like you, how can you get the favor of the Koch family? You have neither your own votes, nor your personal resources, nor even slogans. Do you think you can be the leader?
?”
"Do you have a slogan?"
"Of course there is. With so many great leaders in the United States, there is an actor with a background. He once mentioned, 'let's make America great'. Why don't you use it?"
“How could I possibly use what I’ve already used!”
Dong Jianguo smiled coldly, "If it were me, my slogan should be, 'make America great again!'"
"Look, isn't that your campaign slogan?"
Lu Fei winked at Ivanka.
"You don't really want to help my dad campaign, do you?"
Ivanka tugged on his arm, nervous and expectant.
"It depends on you, how many children are you going to give me?"
Lu Fei pinched her chin with a wicked smile on his face.
Ivanka met his gaze and was not reserved, "Just give birth to as many children as you want. I don't want to work hard anymore."
Lu Fei smiled: "No, we must work hard. Let's 'make America great again' together."
Dong Jianguo and Ivanka looked at each other. Why do these words sound so awkward? Are you serious about wishing America well?
