Meng Ge could assassinate Stanley Ho for his plan, so how could he miss such a big thing as Wynn opening a new gambling ship.
He Hongsheng and He Chaoqiong were also worried that something would happen on this day, so they decided to send only one vice president, even if people outside said that the He family was ungrateful. He Guangyao or He Chaoqiong must not be allowed to take risks, but at this time, Stanley Ho is both waiting and watching.
However, things did not go as they thought. That night, the gambling boat was attacked before the ribbon was cut. Although the casualties were not very large, the boat was not too damaged. But countless reporters soon arrived. The worst thing that was bombed was not the gambling boat, but the dock that no one paid attention to. There were all kinds of iron nails everywhere, and they couldn't be used in a short time.
Especially after the media reported this, the police department also intervened, and the invited guests also knew that it was not safe. Guests on the first voyage who had booked their tickets soon began to refund their tickets. In summary, there was only one result: Wynn Company¡¯s new bet The ship won't be able to cut the ribbon tomorrow.
"Ha" Mr. Stanley Ho sat alone in his study, holding a delicate little teapot in his hand: "Sure enough, he is smart. If such talents can be used by the He family, it will be much easier for the He family to enter the world of gambling. Know how It is a good trick to avoid the important and make the most of the small, to attack the big with the small. In this way, the government can not suppress it with all its strength, but it can also continuously cause blows and pressure on Stephen Wayne, so"
It seems that this person is casually young, but he is not as simple and impulsive as he seems on the surface. Everything he does is very "Tao". Well, it seems that the He family will take action as soon as possible, but if the He family doesn't take action, it will be a heavy blow.
He no longer needs to worry about these things. He will care about the general direction and make a decision. The rest is about He Chaoqiong and He Guangyao. But at this time, he wanted to see what they would do next with this instructor and the tank?
If they can make some more unexpected moves, the He family will be more certain of victory.
¡¡
At the press conference, if such a big thing happened, Maris, the general manager of Wynn Macau, must stand up and speak out.
In view of the current serious situation, the press conference was also held as if facing an enemy.
To be even more sorry, Stephen Wayne has said hello to the police. The police do not want to see any more serious incidents. Fortunately, the recent major casualties are not recorded. Afterwards, both Wynn and the He family handled the matter very cleanly.
Of course, Stephen Wayne also spent a lot of money. With the cooperation of the police, the entire press conference felt like it was facing a formidable enemy. Everyone is scrutinized, assisted by security experts brought in from Las Vegas by Wynn.
Even the camera equipment and photography equipment they use must be inspected. Now it is not too difficult to secure guns or guns inside.
¡°And the people invited are all reporters who have a good relationship with Wynn and have received money from them. In particular, many reporters from the United States have been invited. Because the Wynn Company has invested heavily in Macau, a series of incidents have occurred recently, especially the failure of the new gambling ship to operate as scheduled. Now it has spread to the United States.
Wynn's stock has dropped 3.8% at the opening this morning. Wynn's current market value exceeds US$70 billion, and its losses on paper exceed US$2 billion. If it cannot be controlled as soon as possible, the losses will be even greater. .
It is necessary to turn bad news into good news as soon as possible and stabilize the situation. At this time, Stephen Wayne was also a little unable to sit still. The opponent is one step ahead of him, and his moves are always one step behind the opponent, and he is crushed by the opponent.
Journalists were all invited, so the number of people was not too large, but it was still more than fifty. Among them are people from ten television stations, four radio stations, nine newspapers and three internal gaming industry journals.
A thorough inspection was very time-consuming, and it took two hours for the press conference to begin. Bodyguards and police were all around, and there were also bodyguards and police among the reporters to pay careful attention to what might happen at any time.
Maris walked onto the stage in a suit and ties with a smile on his face.
"First of all, on behalf of Wynn Corporation, I would like to apologize to the guests on the first voyage. Due to some unexpected events, the first voyage had to be postponed. However, this is only temporary. The gambling ship will sail again soon. On behalf of Wynn Corporation Chairman Steve Mr. Finn Wayne, when the maiden voyage is over, all the ticket money will be returned to the distinguished guests on the maiden voyage in double as rewards as compensation for this unexpected incident."
As soon as this statement came out, many of the reporters below exclaimed, knowing that their tickets were not cheap. That includes more than a week's worth of food, accommodation and entertainment, and it's double the amount. That doesn't mean you'll make money by taking a boat ride.
There are two TV stations that are live broadcasting, and many people who have refunded their tickets immediately in front of the TVI regret it immediately, but it¡¯s a pity that I no longer have this discount if I want to buy it again.
"In addition, regarding this incident, I personally express a serious protest on behalf of the company. This is someone sabotaging our Wynn Company's investment in Macau. Because Wynn Company has developed rapidly and achieved outstanding results, it has been jealous of some people, but they The more this is the case, the more it proves that Wynn is developing well."
"Huh" He Guangyao was also watching the live broadcast and snorted coldly when he heard what he said. Anyone who heard his words would think of the He family. The He family controls most of the gambling boats in Asia, but when I think about it, I think that the He family will really take action soon. When the time comes, I will let you know that the He family's methods are not so trivial.
¡°Bang¡¡± Even people sitting in front of the TV could hear it clearly. There was a sound like a balloon bursting, and the entire screen was filled with smoke in an instant.
Stephen Wayne was also watching, and he stood up suddenly when he saw this scene. What he was most worried about was that the other party would attack at this time. However, Stephen Wayne took two puffs of his cigar. He and Maris had already thought of this situation, so they made arrangements early in the morning.
There are several blockades outside, so they can't escape.
His people have negotiated with the police in advance, and since the He family has not intervened so far, the police are still cooperating with them. When the press conference started, the whole place was cordoned off. It would be okay if nothing happened, but if something happened, no one would be allowed to leave.
From the TV, you can hear that the scene was very chaotic. Soon the TV station switched over and someone started to broadcast it through commentary and the like.
"Chairman, we have left." Maris' call came in less than a minute and they had already evacuated. It was just him and the person protecting him, the others were still trapped inside.
¡°Very good, you should rush to a safe place as soon as possible.¡±
Maris said worriedly: "Our purpose this time is to restore the impact. If the United States knows this news, I'm afraid"
Stephen Wayne said confidently: "Don't worry, I have bribed all the reporters who went there. If nothing happens, they will report it publicly in the United States. If something happens, they will also find a way. You will be back soon." Quickly record a short speech and let them use this plus the smoke as a gimmick to say that we are causing trouble because of the huge benefits we have gained in Macau."
"Okayboom" Before he could finish speaking, he heard a loud noise coming from the phone.
"Ah!" Stephen Wayne hurriedly took off the Bluetooth wireless headphones from his ears, which had shocked his ears just now.
"MarisMaris" He shouted again, but there was no sound. He immediately called other people who were protecting Maris.
"What happened" Stephen Wayne shouted angrily, and he already felt bad in his heart.
The bodyguard who was protecting Maris in the car in front answered the call from Stephen Wayne and was asked by him. He was stunned and didn't know how to answer.
At this time, the extended Rolls-Royce bulletproof car that Maris was sitting in had collapsed in the middle, and a large iron ball used for demolition had just hit it, and the large iron ball that four or five people could hold together had just hit it. The iron ball swung again and hit the Rolls-Royce bulletproof car.
"Boom"
The bodyguards came down and rushed towards the big car dozens of meters away. They could only stop them by getting rid of the people controlling them.
"Bangbang" Two of the bodyguards who had just taken a few steps were killed immediately.
"There are snipers" They reacted quickly and immediately found a place to take cover. However, after such a delay, the huge iron ball hit again.
The Rolls-Royce that had been smashed three times was in a state of disgrace. The people inside must have been dead and silent. When the bodyguards desperately rushed to the machine hanging the iron ball, the people inside were already gone.
"BOSS, we were attackedMaruiSidead!!"
"FUCK" Stephen Wayne angrily pulled the Bluetooth off and smashed it against the wall. He could still bear the death of a few people, but this was not a fight between forces. To be killed by the other party like this, if this When the news came back to the United States, he couldn't even imagine it. It's in Macau, I'm afraid Calm down, calm down There is only one way now, start a fight with the He family. Only in this way can we divert attention and achieve our original goal. It is too difficult for me to catch this group of people in Macau, unless we comprehensively You don't have to worry about the power of the He family until the fight starts. That way, even if you lose a lot in the end, you can definitely find them.
As he was thinking, the phone on the table rang.
¡°Boss, it¡¯s bad, someone from the He family is calling¡±
He just wanted to use the attack on the He family to alleviate his predicament, but he didn't expect HeHe actually took action, and several more calls came in succession. This time the He family was not like before. The gameplay is absolutely authentic and incredibly ferocious.
It stands to reason that Wynn has made sufficient preparations before. It is impossible for the He family to achieve any sneak attack effect, but in fact the battle situation is not that ideal.
In addition to the direct troops he transferred from Las Vegas, many of the other people were undercover agents of the He family, working together inside and outside the battle. Wynn quickly lost a large area of ??territory, and the entire situation instantly became one-sided.
Stephen Wayne did not expect this situation at all. At first, he thought that the He family could only dominate Asia by dominating Macau, and there was no way to compare with multinational gambling groups like them. In addition, because he relied on He Guangyao's accident as a condition to enter Macau at no cost, he naturally looked down upon the He family.
Although he still regarded them as his equal-weight opponents, he never thought that the He family could be so strong.
"Looking closely, the He family spared no effort in this battle. Wynn lost two more stores just now. All the small gangs they control have declared war on them and surrendered to the He family. Haha Now Steve Finn Wayne is in trouble. The Ho family has been developing in Macau for nearly a hundred years. It has also controlled the gambling industry for half a century. Playing with the Ho family in Macau will make Stephen Wayne look good."
At this time, Meng Ge and Tank were in a minivan, listening to the live broadcast of the battle by the kitten, and not far from them was the airport.
"Wow, that's awesome. Galaxy has just announced its support for the Ho family and condemned Wynn for everything. At the same time, it will send people to support the Ho family and drive Wynn out of Macau. Now Stephen Wayne's death date is basically set. .¡±
"Very good, keep an eye on their movements at all times. Have you passed on everything I asked you to pass on?" Meng Ge took out some food and drink and threw them to the three of them. He didn't know how long they would have to wait here.
"Don't worry when I do this. The Internet is full of stories about Wynn being suppressed by the Ho family and Galaxy, including the incident of their company's gambling boat accident and the deaths of two general managers in succession. In order to spread the news faster, not only the majority of TV stations in the United States have I sent a copy to the newspaper and also sent a copy to their opponents in Las Vegas, haha, I believe their opponents will be interested."
"Well, keep in touch at any time and let me know if you have anything important." When Meng Ge enters the state, he is always in a state where he is neither too excited nor too lost.
Mao Mao said: "No problem, but will it be useful if you wait like this? What if this battle lasts for ten or eight days?"
"Then wait ten days and eight days"
"Then if we fight forget it, you must have said to wait a month. What I mean is that if the battle situation reaches a stalemate, we should actually take advantage of this good situation to cooperate with the He family to attack Stephen Wayne. "
"He Hongsheng will not let this happen. All we have to do is to set off a lead to detonate this **. The rest is the matter of the He family. If the He family doesn't even have this energy, then they will Not worthy of becoming Macau¡¯s new overlord.¡±
"Tskforget it, wait for my news." Mao Mao still didn't say anything about Meng Ge, and finally turned off the communication.
"Instructor, who is he?" Tank and Meng Ge had fought together for a long time. Before entering a state of combat readiness, everyone was still relatively casual.
"He's just a young guy, but his technology is world-class, no worse than the previous mechas."
"Oh!" Tank nodded and said nothing more. The mecha was the guy in charge of technology and modification in their team before. Although he never participated in combat, he was still an indispensable figure in the team.
Nothing happened, and Meng Ge didn¡¯t want to mention the past, but he really didn¡¯t know how long it would take until there was no news.
"Torpedo, what is your specialty?"
As soon as Torpedo heard the instructor talking to him, he hurriedly said: "What we learned in the second team are all comprehensive skills, and no partial subjects are allowed. Later, when the tank captain took us, he said that I might be suitable for learning assassination. I also told the tank captain Learned some close combat."
"It's okay to learn assassination and close combat. It's not a big problem for you to develop in these two directions. However, you shouldn't learn tanks for close combat. His strength and body are natural advantages, and he can use them to their full potential. What comes out is not what you can do, and it is useless no matter how hard you try. What you have to learn are some small and powerful ones, such as small and flexible kung fu designed for short-jointed hands. After this mission is over, I will give Tank a Let him train first. If I had thrown a flying knife at you that day, you would have been dead."
"Yeah" Torpedo listened carefully to Meng Ge's every word.
"These need to be divided into several stages. Wait until you pass one stage., let¡¯s talk about your training direction for the next stage. "
"yes"
"Gunner, how do you feel about your shooting skills?"
"Reporting to the instructor, I am the best in marksmanship in the second team, but the tank says that my marksmanship is flashy and rubbish."
"How do you feel about it?"
"Reporting to the instructor, after the last battle with you, I believe the captain's words. They are flashy and rubbish."
It¡¯s been a long time since I felt this way. Meng Ge smiled in his heart but his expression didn¡¯t change at all.
"Your achievements cannot be denied, but it is a good thing that you can understand that you are not the best yet. You have just laid a good foundation now. However, you still lack something you need. Remember, the first thing you need to do now is What you have to do is to cultivate your own confidence. You have to tell yourself that you are the best. Secondly, it is a technical issue." That day at the He family's old house was the first time I played against them, not to mention tanks. So familiar. The gunman's problem was that he hesitated to fire because he was entangled with the tank.
The sniper who killed Maris was the gunman. He did a pretty good job, but he had to deal with more than just that kind of scene.
That¡¯s because Meng Ge had already planned the entire situation. He had installed a smoke bomb in the heel of a reporter in advance and detonated it when the time came. Then he used the kitten to control the traffic lights, control the direction of Maris and his convoy, and finally gave him a fatal blow at that intersection.
Having the advantage of having the right time, place and people is nothing in that situation. Good times cannot reflect adaptability, only adversity can reveal it.
Stephen Wayne has truly realized the influence of the He family in Macau at this time. If he wants to use his connections at this time, no one will pay attention to him at all. Everyone stayed away from him, and the situation in Las Vegas was even more precarious.
The stock had fallen by 20% in the afternoon, and the board of directors had asked him to give an explanation. Some of Las Vegas' former enemies also took advantage of the situation.
????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????? Although there are still many people and they are capable of fighting, the situation does not allow him to do so.
At this time, he must make a choice, give up Macau or stick to Macau. It is difficult for him to make the decision at this time. If he does not get the support of Las Vegas, his defeat in Macau is doomed to be irreversible.
The situation at the headquarters is not much better now. To recover the losses go back to the headquarters to put out the fire. A gentleman will take revenge. It is not too late in ten years. The battle had only started seven hours before Stephen Wayne proposed peace talks, and now no one believed him.
But with the advancement of technology, each of the three parties sent three representatives. Representatives from Stanley Ho, Stephen Wayne and Galaxy were talking in an online video conference.
Stanley Ho was very straightforward and ruthless. His first words were: "Wayne, don't raise the price too high. You have failed. You know very well that if we delay you for a while, you will die miserably." "
"Asshole" Stephen Wayne was boiling with anger, but what could he do.
"With three billion U.S. dollars, I, Wynn, will completely withdraw from Macau," Stephen Wayne said fiercely: "This is my final bottom line, otherwise we will both lose."
The president of Galaxy said coldly: "Both sides will suffer, Wayne, are you still qualified to say such a thing now?"
"If you force me to the point where I have no way out, then I will have no choice but to fight you to the death. I will let you see if I, Stephen Wayne, am capable of this." Stephen Wayne was unwilling to give in. , their Wynn investment in Macau has reached 5.7 billion US dollars, not to mention so much manpower and energy.
"Two billion U.S. dollars, I'll give you one hour to think about it." At this time, Ho Hongsheng still looked like an old man, full of energy, speaking cleanly, and his negotiation skills were even more measured.
An hour later, the three companies signed a contract. Wynn will sell its casinos in Macau to Galaxy and the Ho family respectively. The Ho family will invest 1.5 billion to purchase a majority share, and Galaxy will invest 500 million.
Wynn will completely withdraw from Macau within 24 hours.
The first few groups of people have already rushed back to Las Vegas. Stephen Wayne and his personal bodyguard left last because he was waiting for the money from the He family and Galaxy. Only after receiving this money can he return. Vegas turned the tables.
Wynn can afford to lose billions of dollars, but the headquarters must not make any mistakes. However, this failure is enough to severely damage the vitality of Wynn Group.
