Movie World Traveller

Night falls,

Jiang Hao drove the rented car and drove on the neon flashing Las Vegas street. On the sky at the end of the street, a huge moon just happened to make the street look like a kind of moonlight werewolf. a feeling of.

Men and women hiding in the hotel from the sun during the day, like resurrected vampires, one by one open the coffin and drilled out, excited and cheerful, full of impulse to blood, Las Vegas really woke up.

The car was parked in the parking lot of the "Flamingo" hotel, got out of the car and walked into the hotel. There were countless cars parked around, all for fun. Looking at the neon light of the flamingo, Jiang Hao remembered its history.

The Flamingo Hotel was the first luxury hotel in Las Vegas. His founder was Benjamin Siegel, a gangster. When he stood in the desert, he suddenly had the idea of ​​a luxury casino. Then spent $ 6 million to build the Flamingo.

The flamingo was worth 10 million that year, and 50 years later, the value of the flamingo hotel reached 100 billion.

When you walk into the casino, the bright lights and luxurious decoration will make you feel refreshed. Crowds around the tables will be frustrated when you lose money, and cheer when you win. The atmosphere on the field is very strong, and you will not be able to accommodate yourself. among them.

A waiter walked by holding a tray full of wine glasses. Jiang Hao took a cup and walked through the tables. Finally, Jiang Hao stopped at the blackjack table. There were ten tables at 21 o'clock. Jiang Hao chose an available seat to sit directly on.

According to gambling theory, blackjack is the fairest way to play. The banker's advantage over the player is only 0.28%, and for example, the dice, the banker's advantage is 1.4% more than the player. On the roulette, the banker's advantage is greater than the player. 5%.

As long as the casino has enough chip funds and keeps playing with you, the one that ultimately wins is definitely the casino.

In addition, Jiang Hao also knows a "Kelly formula". As long as he can improve his winning face by calculating the probability, he has the ability to never forget and can be used in this regard, just like the movie "Final Blackjack".

Of course, if you use space and magic techniques, Jiang Hao can definitely win more, but he is here to do business. He doesn't want to anger the gangsters here. Even in the casino, playing is fine. Small bets can be nice and big bets. Be hunted down.

There are already a few gamblers on this table, a woman in her thirties, a beautiful makeup, a young white man, this man and a woman should look very close, and a well-dressed old man, a vulgar looking guy. Of course, a few people don't matter at all, they all play with the dealer.

Set the wine glass aside and drop a $ 10 chip.

The dealer dealt cards, Jiang Hao got a **** eight, which is not a good card. The second card is a square 7 with only 15 points. The chance of winning is very small, but the chance of asking for a card is very high.

Jiang Hao put the card on the table, "No more."

Others looked at each other, many people showed disdain, especially the pair of men and women, elated card, the young man was already 18 o'clock, and gritted his teeth and asked for another, Jiang Hao shook his head for him, typical impulsive Gambler.

Then the guy exploded.

Going down one by one, in the end it was the dealer's turn. The dealer was going to 20 o'clock, and took all the people on the table.

In this way, the gambling game continues. The gaming table is a small society, and everyone's personality is fully expressed. Some people say that the gaming table can be seen by others, and it is his judgment when facing gambling.

After Jiang Hao's observation, the old man is the most stable. Although the rough man looks rough, he should be a veteran of playing cards. The pair of men and women are real rookies. Rich and impulsive, it is definitely a casino's favorite bet. customer.

"Bin, do you think I need it?" The woman asked, looking at the 17-point card.

"Yes, of course, another one," said the young man.

The dealer dealt a card with a 5, and the woman burst.

After playing for about two hours, the woman and the man named Bin left the gaming table in frustration. I did n’t know before. Anyway, since Jiang Hao sat down, the two men lost more than 10,000 dollars in total, just that. The woman signed the check twice, in exchange for chips, and the man never paid a penny.

Jiang Hao didn't know. In fact, these two people can come to Las Vegas and have a great relationship with him. The woman is the wife of Monroe's agent. She has a long-term husband. When her husband is paralyzed, her partner comes to the door. She hoped that after buying back those shares, she agreed without any hesitation. The two came to Las Vegas and did not expect to gamble with Jiang Hao at the same table. The life experience was so wonderful.

The rough man had lost all the money long ago, and persisted to the end. Only the white-haired old man and Jiang Hao, the old man won about one thousand.

At first Jiang Hao lost more than a thousand. Slowly, Jiang Hao lost more and won less. Two hours later, Jiang Hao has won more than 5,000 US dollars, but he kept using his brain to count cards and calculate. He already felt a little bit Tired.

After another card, Jiang Hao left Taiwan directly. This kind of game is just a matter of playing. If you expect to make a fortune in the casino, it is definitely a daydream.

People invest so much money to build a hotel, free drinks, food, countless waiters to serve, and let every gambler come here to withdraw money and leave, do you think about it?

When he came to the rest area, he took a glass of dark beer and a plate of cake. Jiang Hao was sitting at a table for a supper. As soon as he took a bite, he saw the old man at the same table also came over. The old man saw Jiang Hao, nodded and said hello, after all, playing together for more than two hours, it is also the most familiar stranger here.

Jiang Hao responded politely, lowered his head and continued to eat the cake, but unexpectedly, after a few minutes, the old man came over with a cup of hot coffee and a plate of dessert, and stood beside Jiang Hao and asked, "Can I sit here, Chat together. "

"Of course." Jiang Hao said with a smile.

The old man took a sip of coffee and said, "I just watched you play cards, it's very stable."

"You should win too." Jiang Hao said.

"Yes, luck is pretty good tonight, you know, I give myself a holiday every year, come to Las Vegas for a while, I never play big cards, try to restrain myself from being impulsive, I have seen too Many people lost their house overnight because of impulse, "said the old man, shaking his head.

"By the way, what do you do?" The old man took a piece of cake and stuffed it into his mouth.

"I, a writer, write novels and scripts." Jiang Hao said.

The old man said, "Maybe we still have a common language, because I run a movie equipment and prop rental company."

"Where is your company?"

"Hollywood, of course, Hollywood, where there is the world's most complete film industry system. Everything about movies, you can find there, equipment, props, directors, superstars, extras, photographers, crew, etc. Wait, as long as you go with the money, there is nothing you can't find. "The old man gestured with his finger.

"A small film company, I mean a company that can independently produce films. What is the value?" Jiang Hao had this idea and wanted to find out.

The old man looked at Jiang Hao, "Why, don't you want to buy a movie company? This is not good. There are some small companies in Hollywood with only a few people. Everything else is rented. Still, you can make films, and those are up to you. It depends on how much money you have. "

"But since the Paramount Act, big movie companies have not allowed monopoly theaters. Now movie companies are investing more and more in film production. It is normal for a movie to invest millions of dollars. Those who originally wanted to spend tens of thousands Companies with hundreds of thousands of dollars who want to get rich overnight are getting harder and harder. "

Jiang Hao also considered this problem. For a simple example, take the movie "Seven Years Itching" that he traveled through. This movie is an urban drama, and more than half of the scenes are completed in the room. It also cost $ 3 million.

Of course, the pay of the two protagonists is a big part of it.

But it also shows that filming is really expensive, especially for large-scale productions. Although it is now 1955, there are also a few million-dollar films invested every year.

Jiang Hao now only has more than 600,000 US dollars. To establish a legal status requires 100,000. He can only use 500,000 funds. Is 500,000 sufficient?

To set up a movie company to recruit employees, to buy equipment, film, to rent various props, to hire a shooting and production team, at least dozens of people are needed, to find actors, lead actors, supporting actors, crowd actors, etc. These all require money.

Want to make a good movie, 500,000 is not enough.

Lack of money

You have to find a way to get money.

robbery?

There are so many casinos in Las Vegas with countless cash in it.

However, this is not a good idea. It is better to sell those powders in the space. Jiang Hao has made a decision and the old man bids farewell. Jiang Hao returns to the hotel to make himself a Tony Stark and directly to that one. The guy called Heim called.

"I remember you, you are the guy in the afternoon, have all the powder been eaten, man, you are using it so fast, I will pass by now." Heim said on the phone.

In the past twenty minutes, Jiang Hao saw Jiang Hao in the hotel parking lot. Jiang Hao sat directly in the back seat of the car. Haim turned and smiled at Jiang Hao. "You look good, Renard, open the box and let He picked it himself. "

Co-Pilot Renard was about to open the box. This is Jiang Hao: "Wait a minute, see how I am."

Heim and Leonard froze, "Look at you, what?"

Jiang Hao also carried a box. After opening it, there were slowly white plastic bags inside. Haim glanced at Renard. The two eyes exchanged and looked at Jiang Hao again. "Dude, what do you mean, don't tell me You are here to sell flour. "

"You can think of me as a salesman, and I want to meet your boss." Jiang Hao said with a smile.

Phone contact to explain the situation, one hour later, the two of Haim drove Jiang Hao to a small building. Jiang Hao saw their boss, a middle-aged man with sharp eyes.

"My name is Steve Bussimi, you can call me Steve, how about you?" Said the middle-aged man with a calm tone.

"Tony Stark," Jiang Hao said calmly.

The two looked at each other for a few moments. The other saw Jiang Hao without any fear or timidity, and said again: "Heim said, you want to sell it to me?"

Jiang Hao lifted the box in his hand, but Steve didn't pick it up. A man next to him took the box, placed it on the table next to it, and opened it with a click, exposing the neat 5 packets of powder inside.

He took a look at his boss, Steve nodded, the little brother pierced the plastic bag with his finger, licked it in his mouth, and hooked some under his nose to suck. After a few seconds, nodded to his boss Head, "Cocaine, First Class."

The so-called premium goods are those that have not messed up.

You know, in order to sell more money, those drug dealers will not sell pure powder to drug addicts. They will add some messy things to it. The purity will decrease, and the weight and volume will increase, which can make 30% more money.

30% profit is not a small sum of money, 5 million goods is equivalent to making 1.5 million more.

"How are you going to sell?"

"How much are you asking?"

Steve thought about it ~ www.NovelMTL.com ~ One dollar and one gram. "

Jiang Hao immediately shook his head and said with a smile: "I bought 4 dollars a gram before."

Steve looks at Hem next to him, who shrugs innocently.

"Man, there's my profit in it," Steve said.

"But my goods are first-rate."

"How much do you want?" Steve frowned.

"$ 2 a gram."

Steve thought about it, and finally nodded in agreement, looking at Jiang Hao and saying, "Yes, I accept these, but man, where are you from, are you planning to open up the Las Vegas market."

"Is Las Vegas welcome?" Jiang Hao said.

"Man, we don't like our counterparts who are grabbing land, but we welcome channel dealers. If you have a purchase channel, how about working with me?" Steve looked at Jiang Hao and said.
