Chapter 772
In the following days, Gu Ao, Xiao Sui and Mina's family stayed on vacation in Monaco, and handed over the property rights of the bookmaker and "Princess Caroline".
Of course, there are special people to prepare for the specific legal and financial procedures. Monaco also has a little bit of shares in Gu Ao's gambling company, and of course they also need to witness and supervise.
Gu Ao had bought a villa in Monaco, so he lived there temporarily. The sailing yacht he bought three years ago to play with Mina happened to be taken out for the family.
Neither Xiao Sui nor the children had seen this boat before, and they were quite interested and had a lot of fun.
Every day when driving a yacht to sea, you will rely on the power of sails to follow the flow. Hang up a hanging net on the torpedo-shaped three-body floats on both sides to enjoy the classic body surfing massage.
If you feel tired, stop the boat anywhere and ask the maid on the boat to arrange sea fishing. The owner squints while eating fruit plates. If you catch, let the chef on the boat cook on the spot. This is also one of the conveniences of driving a small boat out for fun. If it is a big boat, it will be difficult to fish in the sea.
The water quality and aquatic products in the Tyrrhenian Sea are quite good. The Italians have been polluted less in recent years. No matter what fish are, as long as they are not too small and spicy chicken like sardines, they will be very comfortable after fishing, and then fry the olive oil rock and sprinkle some shoulder and elbow salt.
On May Day, the procedures were completed. Mina paid 50 million and it was deposited by Gu Ao. In fact, it was just a formality for outsiders to see. Then Gu Ao's shares in Monaco Gambling Company were transferred to Mina.
After clearing herself, when the news calmed down, Mina began to use the resources of the Monaco shipping company that had been smuggling east-west routes in France-Syria-Argentina a few years ago to carry some private goods.
The source of the private goods can be regarded as using some friends Mina met in Iraq. After all, she has done business, counselor, and sold Lucia goods there.
Even Gu Ao, although he did not change history, persuaded General Hussein not to stand firm with the Americans, at least he had done his best to be a friend and advised the general in advance that he would be instantly not an American opponent - it was just that the persuasion was ineffective. The general was too inflated at the time, so he just didn't believe it.
After the real defeat, friends who once spoke frankly would have some favors. So although Iraq has lost about 200 billion US dollars in the past two months and suffered a complete defeat, its attitude towards international friends has been better.
He is also willing to try his best to find a way to recover his health. Of course, for AIA, he can trade some benefits, but he can trade some benefits.
Although the Iraqi army was useless, it also had a lot of American awesome equipment. In a battle, the Tomahawk cruise missile duds he got, and the F-18 Hornets who were shot down by MiG-25 or injured and landed in an emergency... will be a little bit.
(In the Gulf War, the Iraqi ace pilots defeated F16 and F18, but there was no golden body record of F15. F15. F15's "not shot down in actual combat". It was not until the 2010s that the heads were sent out in the hands of the big dog pilots, but they were shot down by the Yemeni guerrillas)
Then, through those strange shipping companies, collecting rags and transporting them from Syrian ports first. It is too dangerous to go to the Persian Gulf.
The Americans had just ended the war and blocked the Persian Gulf. It doesn't matter if they don't have the energy to take care of too many trivial matters.
Until the end of the Cold War, in addition to personally revealing it, France was the one who had always had good foreign relations. This was a context that has been preserved since the Lebanese War. Monaco shipping companies have been in operation for many years, and it is not necessarily possible to find out if they are involved in some Monacos.
As for where Syria has gone after leaving the port, no one knows. The world is so chaotic, USSR is still surviving, and Americans don’t care so much. Moreover, the wreckage cannot analyze anything, and these things do not have any black technology at the material level.
It’s not a violation of international law to recycle dry garbage.
...
"Oh, after receiving the training of the country, I will never be idle in my life. Fortunately, you helped me with the troubles in these circles."
After hearing that Mina had done something, Gu Ao felt more and more indebtedness.
Every time Mina helps him block the foreign affairs department's errands, Gu Ao will add a layer of guilt for not being able to marry her back then.
Mina can only live in the shadows after all.
"What are you and I doing? It's been so many years since ancient times. Throughout history, how many couples have had the opportunity to fight side by side and live and die together. Our relationship is many times rarer than those genuine couples. I just know your heart." Mina was very open-minded.
Gu Ao was very moved: "Although I can't give you a title in this life, I swear that I will only have children with you in this life, and everything we have is left to them."
Although Gu Ao's current couple is Mina's biological point of view, with his status, such a promise is still very solemn and valuable, and it can be said that he is a promise of a thousand gold.
After all, if he wants to, how many women around him want to give him children? He is only 28 years old, and there are many possibilities in the future. It is undoubtedly very serious to make such a promise when he was 28 years old.
However, after hearing this, Mina thought a little more: "Do you still want children? Are you worried about safety and risks? Are you afraid that a son will not be enough for a big family and a big business?"
Gu Ao: "Where can it be! I don't allow you to say unlucky words! I just give you a promise and don't think too much. I'm telling you, don't look at me young, but I won't have any with other women... Alas, I won't explain."
Mina sighed: "Actually, if you really want it, I understand. Your status is getting higher and higher, and more and more people are targeting you. It is also worth it. Forget it, I won't talk about this topic."
The couple's night talk was temporarily in a short period of depression. After Mina poured herself some small champagne to drink, she changed the topic and continued:
"In the past few days, let's go to the Princess Caroline to play for another week. After the ship returns to the port, we will hold a promotional and reward event, which can be regarded as an announcement that the bookmaker has changed ownership with this ship.
Moreover, if the situation is bigger, it is also better to serve as a cover. In the future, if there are people in the United States to investigate what we are busy with during this period, it is also easier to see the smoke bombs."
Gu Ao: "This is what it should be. The boat will return to the port in four days. Tomorrow we will promote the guest remuneration event and advertise. This time we will attract more wealthy guests to support us."
Gu Ao sold the gambling company, which was originally for people to see. If there was no sound, wouldn’t it be in vain? He would definitely have to "fly the colorful flags flutter and the gongs and drums are loud" and all the rich people in Southern Europe invited them.
...
The next morning, everyone did it as soon as possible and discussed the reward activity with His Highness Caroline. The other party agreed, and said that the royal socialites in Monaco (actually her sisters) would take the boat to play, which was also considered to attract some nouveau riche customers who wanted to make friends with upper-class people.
The ship has been commercially available for more than four years, so the daily attendance rate of the nobles of Monaco is already very low, no more frequent than when it first opened.
The response to the reward activity was indeed very strong. After all, the "Princess Caroline" has been in business for more than four years and has always focused on high-end styles and never discounted them. The rebate opportunity of major shareholders changing their owners is less than once in ten years.
More than 1,000 tickets were ordered quickly.
Gu Ao's family, only Mina attended the meeting as the host. He and Xiao Sui were very low-key. They got on the boat and found a top-level warehouse to house.
How Mina socializes with rich Southern European guests and becomes the focus of socializing in the audience. There is nothing much to say about these processes. Anyway, it is a diplomatic social interaction that is worn to the point of the soul mask.
Many cabins on the ship have additional oxygen supply, which makes the oxygen concentration in the air higher than the natural environment, so that people can be more excited and have a few more games. Although this measure is despicable, all countries operating the gambling industry do this, and no one can avoid the vulgarity.
Anyway, the harm is that capital pays attention to the corruption and depravity of the world, and Gu Ao has no psychological burden.
But after being in such an atmosphere for a long time, people will easily suffer from insomnia.
That night, when I returned to the shipowner's private cabin on the top floor, Mina still felt it was difficult to fall asleep, so she asked Gu Ao to accompany her more.
"Husband, I haven't watched "Terminator 2" yet. Why don't you accompany me to the theater lounge to watch it? If you absorb too much oxygen, you can't sleep."
Gu Ao's family actually has LD discs of "Terminator 2" and also has sample director editing versions of each issue. They were sent to Gu Ao by Cameron in person during the production process.
After all, he is the boss of the production company.
However, Mina is not interested in these end-of-life suppression themes of fighting and killing, so even if she has it at home, she hasn't touched it for several months.
What she cares about is not the movie itself, but the atmosphere, and she needs to be accompanied by her husband in the dark theater.
I have been in Monaco for more than half a month, but Monaco's land is worth every inch of land, and there is no cinema at most, and there is only an opera house/concert hall, and I will temporarily play a guest appearance. The theater business will definitely not make money under the rent environment of Monaco.
So after coming to Monaco, Mina never had the chance to catch her. The nearest theater has to go to Nice or Cannes next door in France.
The environment is good now. All those who can board this luxury cruise ship are super rich people and have been inspected by security. The lounge on the ship provides movie screenings, sofas and beds, just like those lounges in hot spring centers. You don’t have to worry about safety issues without a bodyguard. Anyway, the entire ship is under Mina’s control.
Gu Ao was so kind that he hugged his insomnia wife and found a second-floor bed in the back row in the lounge to watch a movie.
Mina had not been spoiled before, and was hugged by her husband, and she seemed to feel relish.
The script of "Terminator 2" is no longer written by Xiao Sui, but is entirely created by Americans. Gu Ao just added some dry goods that the chief will have been appointed by the leader in the original plot, and it was reasonable to convince Cameron to agree, so the difference with the plot in another time and space is not very big.
Mina watched it for a while and was really attracted by the interlocking plot.
Starting from the scene where Arnold snatches sunglasses and motorcycles back and forth in the rock BGM setting of "Born of Bound", the whole article can be said to be a failure.
Mina only took half an hour to believe it with conviction: this film has now exceeded 150 million US dollars in North America, and has accumulated over 100 million in Europe, and more than 60 million in Japan, which is not unreasonable.
(In February, the box office exceeded 100 million in North America, and now it is early May, reaching 150 million. The above European and Japanese data are also denominated in US dollars)
As Arnold and his mother and son of T800 completely resolve the mutual trust crisis, the plot progresses to "Arnold describes the future nuclear war that led to the extinction of human countries and the transition of all mankind into the underground resistance era, and describes it to the Connor family."
