Chapter 1,111 The storm gathers

The Monte Carlo Casino is the largest casino in Monaco. The owner behind it belongs to the Monaco royal family. There is only one gambling king in the capital of Monte Carlo - that is the Monaco royal family.

Since Monaco did not have any financial resources, in order to generate income for this poor little principality, Monaco established its first casino. After decades of development, Monte Carlo has gradually become one of the three major gambling cities in the world. And with

What is different from other gambling cities is that the people who come to Monte Carlo to gamble are all rich people from all over the world. Therefore, in order to ensure the safety of these rich people, the Monaco royal family issued martial law across the country and formulated extremely strict laws against thieves and other criminals.

This ensures the safety of all gamblers.

It can be said that Monte Carlo is a city with almost no crime, and there are no slums unique to other big cities, or even poor people as defined by other countries. Monte Carlo is a paradise on earth, and of course it is built with money.

Paradise on earth.

Lin Feng, Lin Chiling, and Jessica Alba came to the Monte Carlo Casino together.

"Hi, Mr. Lin, you're finally here. I've been waiting for you for a long time!" As soon as Lin Feng entered the casino, Ellison came to greet him before he could appreciate the splendor of one of the three major casinos.

"Mr. Ellison, I'm sorry, I'm sorry, I'm a little late, please forgive me!" Lin Feng greeted him with a smile.

"Haha, Mr. Lin, the two female companions today are so beautiful. I'm afraid many men here will envy Mr. Lin." Ellison looked at Lin Chiling and Jessica, who were on the left and right of Lin Feng, and said with a smile.

Lin Feng smiled. Isn't it? In order to attend tonight's party, although it is only at the Monte Carlo Casino, the people here are all rich people from all over the world, so Lin Chiling and Jessica both dressed up carefully. Lin Chiling's dress adhered to the

Duty, showing the shrewdness of an urban girl, dry yet charming. Jessica, on the other hand, shows off her sexy and hot figure. The gorgeous and elegant backless dress makes her charming and graceful.

With a casual glance, Qian Lin Feng could see the naked desire for Jessica in the eyes of the wealthy people around him.

Unfortunately, when everyone saw Jessica, they naturally also saw Lin Feng and the bodyguard Li Rui and others behind Lin Feng. With Lin Feng present, no one had the courage to tease Lin Feng's woman in front of Lin Feng. You know

, Lin Feng's "cruelty" and "protection of shortcomings" are world-famous, and Li Rui and others from the "Langya" security company behind Lin Feng have also become world-famous with Lin Feng's high exposure.

Although everyone was interested in Jessica, a coquettish woman, they did not dare to have any unreasonable thoughts. It can be said that Lin Feng's previous publicity was not all bad, at least it had frightened many Xiaoxiao, making these people without strength

, dare not offend Lin Feng easily.

"Mr. Lin, this is not the first time we have met. Can you allow me to call you Lin?" Ellison asked with a smile.

"Of course, Ellison, we really don't have to be so different anymore!" Lin Feng smiled.

It's always like this, sir. It's really awkward to call him sir. What's more, being able to become friends with someone like Ellison is also good for Lin Feng's career development. Many friends lead to many paths, especially someone like Ellison.

People with successful careers.

"Let's go, Lin. I've reserved a box in the VIP room above. There's a small cocktail party for everyone," Ellison said, holding Lin Feng's hand.

"Then it's better to be respectful than to obey!" Lin Feng followed Ellison up the stairs generously.

Ellison is suddenly so enthusiastic all the way, and he must have an agenda. The so-called courtesy for nothing is either cheating or stealing. Ellison and I have never met before, and he is so kind to me, and he is in his newly built "Rising Sun"

He held a signing reception for himself on the yacht No. 1, and he was treated so courteously in Monte Carlo. There must be something in between.

It probably has something to do with today’s party!

Not long after, Lin Feng and Ellison arrived at the VIP room upstairs.

Opening the door, the entire room is in a classical European royal style, decorated extremely magnificently, just like a palace. Of course, such luxury does not come without a price, and the hourly rent is as high as $50,000, not counting any other expenses.

However, what really surprised Lin Feng was not the luxury of this VIP room, but the appearance of a person. Lin Feng did not expect that he would be here.

"Paul Allen!" Lin Feng frowned.

Paul Allen, one of the world's super rich, ranked sixth on the world's richest list in 2002 with $22.7 billion. Of course, what makes him truly famous is that his colleague is also one of the founders of Microsoft.

Paul Allen and Bill Gates co-founded Microsoft back then. Bill Gates owned 60% of the original shares of Microsoft and Paul Allen owned 40% of the original shares. Of course, Paul Allen died due to illness in 1982.

He left Microsoft, resigned from all positions at Microsoft, and became obsessed with astronomical science and "alien". He also invested in the establishment of an "alien museum" and even invested 25 million US dollars to start a search for aliens.

plan.

However, although Paul Allen left Microsoft, he did not sell off his Microsoft shares. He still holds Microsoft shares worth more than 5 billion US dollars and is still Microsoft's major shareholder.

Paul Allen was slightly surprised when he saw Lin Feng's appearance. Although he no longer has much relationship with Microsoft, he is still very clear about the relationship between Lin Feng and Microsoft. Currently, the relationship between Lin Feng and Microsoft is very ambiguous.

On the one hand, Lin Feng and Microsoft have cooperated again to jointly launch a new "wma audio" format. On the other hand, they are in a hostile relationship with Lin Feng because of their alliance with "Intel". On the other hand, Microsoft is also launching a new search engine. This

It is in a competitive relationship with Lin Feng's Baidu, but because "Google" is too powerful, Microsoft needs to cooperate with Lin Feng's "Baidu" to jointly fight against the strength of "Google".

In short, the relationship between Lin Feng and Microsoft is complicated. But now Lin Feng is getting involved with Ellison. Seeing the close look between Ellison and Lin Feng, I am afraid that the relationship between the two is by no means simple. But,

When did the two of them get on the line?——Paul Allen looked puzzled.

If the two get connected, it will not be good news for Microsoft. This will add more variables to the relationship between Microsoft and Lin Feng.

"Hi, Paul, you're here. I thought you wouldn't come!" Ellison just walked in and said hello loudly with a smile on his face.

"Of course, Ellison, your 'Rising Sun' is about to be launched, so I naturally want to come and congratulate you. However, I don't know how it compares with my 'Octopus'. Since my 'Octopus' was launched, the construction team has

Shang once said that my Octopus had everything on board except no fish. But drifting alone on the sea, I was always lonely!" Paul Allen said sarcastically.

Lin Feng was stunned when he heard this. Although Lin Feng had long heard that Ellison and Paul Allen were rivals, he never thought that the relationship between the two was so tense that they would quarrel when they met. Lin Feng glanced at Ellison who was standing aside.

, knowing that he was completely used by Ellison this time.

It seems that the banquet is not a good one, and Ellison's enthusiasm to entertain him really has a purpose. I just don't know how Ellison plans to use him? If he just shows his friendly relationship to Microsoft like now, what will happen to him?

I have no influence whatsoever. The relationship between myself and Microsoft will not change in any way. The current situation of the two companies cannot be changed by a little thing like this.

No matter what, prepare yourself to watch the show!

"Haha, Paul, let's wait and see tomorrow. Let's see if my 'Rising Sun' can beat your 'Octopus'!" Ellison said with a smile. However, the expression on his eyebrows was full of satisfaction.

Obviously, this time the "Rising Sun" will definitely not lose to Paul Allen's "Octopus". You know, Ellison already owned two luxury yachts costing more than 30 million US dollars, and this time he built another

A "Rising Sun" is naturally not ordinary.

Could it be that Ellison built the "Rising Sun" just for Paul's "Octopus"? - Lin Feng had a strange idea in his mind. If this is the case, Ellison is really a bit childish, and he would actually do it for Paul.

Investing hundreds of millions of dollars beyond Paul's "Octopus". But depending on Ellison's personality and his relationship with Paul, it is not impossible to do so.

"Paul, since we're in Monte Carlo, why not play a game?" Ellison pointed to the card game aside.

"Of course, when you get to Monte Carlo, if you don't play a game, it will be in vain." Paul Allen sat down happily.

The two have been rivals for a long time, but because of their working relationship, they always meet on various occasions and can hardly get rid of each other. Therefore, the two have another way of getting along. That is to try their best to get along with each other.

On such occasions, you can attack the opponent to vent your inner hatred.

In fact, speaking of it, the initial feud between the two was a bit childish. After experiencing dozens of failures, Ellison finally founded Oracle. After becoming famous, Ellison, who had loved yachts since childhood, bought his first yacht.

, enjoying the ride on the sea. As a result, at this time, a luxury yacht over 60 feet passed by him, and the splash almost wet Ellison's whole body.

At that time, Ellison, who was young and vigorous (Ellison was already 32 at the time), increased the engine and passed the 60-foot-long yacht at its highest horsepower. When he passed, he recognized that it was Paul, the second richest man in the world at the time.

- Allen's luxury yacht. After passing, Ellison, who has always been maverick, gave Paul Allen a big middle finger.

The two also became grudges because of this. In addition, their companies have always been in a competitive relationship. Slowly, the relationship between the two became increasingly tense, and eventually they gradually evolved into mortal enemies. Moreover, it seemed that both of them were

There is no will to resolve.

If the story of the feud between the two people was told, I'm afraid it would really make people laugh out loud.

"Mr. Lin, would you like to play a game too?" Paul Allen looked at Lin Feng with a smile.

"Lin, let's play a game of Texas Hold'em. It's very simple and not big. The maximum bet in a single game is 50,000 euros," Ellison said.

Lin Feng smiled when he heard this. It is indeed not that big. In terms of everyone's assets, this is just like playing a one-yuan card game with someone with a monthly income of tens of thousands. Especially compared to when he played Texas Hold'em with Suleiman, this is really

is much smaller.

"Wait a minute, since there is such an interesting gambling game, why don't you call me one!" an old yet resonant voice shouted.

Everyone looked back. An old man with 60-year-old hair and glasses walked in briskly with the support of a young Chinese woman.

Murdoch!—Lin Feng exclaimed softly in his heart.

Murdoch, the media tycoon, controls more than 60% of the world's media resources. It can be said that he controls the information sources of people around the world. He can decide what people can see and hear.

"Hi, Mr. Murdoch, I didn't expect you to come to Monte Carlo. Nice to meet you!" Ellison greeted him happily.

"Keith (Murdoch's name), are you here to attend Ellison's yacht launching ceremony?" Paul Allen was familiar with Murdoch, so he asked directly.

Murdoch smiled.

"Haha, of course, I heard that Mr. Ellison's 'Rising Sun' is one of the largest orders for Lursen Shipyard this time. I naturally want to come and visit it when it is launched. Besides, it is said that there will be a unique one this time.

The signing ceremony. As a media person, how could I miss it! And my wife is pregnant again, so I asked her to come to Monte Carlo for vacation!" Murdoch said with a smile.

Murdoch glanced at the people in the box and saw Lin Feng smiling.

"I just didn't expect to meet Mr. Lin here. It's really a blessing, a blessing!" Murdoch walked to Lin Feng, took two glasses of red wine from the waiter on the side, and handed one of them to Lin Feng.

"Mr. Lin, come and have a drink. Thank you Mr. Lin for taking care of us media people in the past two years. Without Mr. Lin, we would not have been able to sell so many newspapers in the past two years." Murdoch raised his glass and said.

Lin Feng also raised his glass.

"Mr. Murdoch, I am very honored to meet you here. You know, the "Sun" under Mr. Murdoch has taken great care of me!" Lin Feng has been ridiculed by "The Sun".

, I have been holding a breath in my heart. I just haven’t had the time to get angry with this kind of third-rate tabloid. Now that I have met the real owner, Lin Feng will naturally not let it go.

Even if you can't get your "capital" back, you still have to get some interest back.

Murdoch smiled.

"Well, those people are all from tabloids, so what they write is naturally difficult to be considered elegant. They are only suitable for writing scandals about celebrities to sensationalize the public. Don't be offended by Mr. Lin!" Although Murdoch apologized, his tone was

There was no apology at all.

At that time, Lin Feng publicly accused him at a press conference of abandoning his wife, and marrying his current wife Wendi Deng. This tone has always made Rupert Murdoch uncomfortable. Over the years, "The Sun" has been targeting Lin Feng.

It was prompted by Murdoch.
