Manhattan Reborn 1978

Manhattan.

In front of the Wildfire Bar.

David and Giles walked out of the stairwell arm-in-arm, laughing and complimenting each other.

"The chorus you just sang was obviously out of tune~ I almost got carried away by you!"

"Bullshit! That was the best effect I had on the spot! How could it be out of tune? You must have heard wrong!"

"But you play the piano very well. I never thought you didn't play the wrong score when you were performing live?"

"Music? Where is the music? You didn't give it to me either!"

"Uh... didn't you give it? I remember it wasn't Black Mike just now..."

"What he gave me was a copy of the lyrics, and he said that you asked him to give it to me so that I could use it for your harmonies when singing."

"fxxx! Then one of them must have made a mistake. I have already arranged for someone to give you the score~!"

"I.."

"Hey~ Hey~ Giles, don't worry about this. How do you feel about Andy's proposal ceremony tonight?"

"It's... not bad...~"

"Um..?"

David hugged Giles' neck tightly with surprise on his face, "Such a perfect and romantic proposal ceremony, just tell me...it's not bad??"

"Hey~ This is Andy and Sally's proposal ceremony. You should ask them both."

"Anyway, if I propose in the future, I must come up with a more romantic and perfect proposal ceremony than tonight!"

"Haha~ For Kylena?"

"Um...of course~!" Giles kept rolling his eyes, but he admitted honestly.

"Tch~ Do you still dare to propose to another woman? Giles, you are so hypocritical!"

"I...I...Kaileena and I are really in love~!"

"Ah~ yes~ yes~ you are true love~!"

David pretended to look down on your kid's treacherous intentions or courage.

Giles was anxious. He glanced back to make sure no one was following him. He straightened his back and said to David forcefully: "I tell you, I can be in college..."

"Okay~ You, Giles, are like a love saint in college. Those beautiful girls are like bees circling around you every day~"

"I...yes! They are all because..."

"Yes! I know ~ they are all your admirers. When you go to school every day, these girls will wait for you on the road you must pass, just to see you tall and handsome, hoping to get It’s just your attention~”

"fxxx! David, you are such a bastard!"

"Haha~ If you make friends with a bastard, I don't think you'll be much better~"

"You...you~" Giles' face turned red after being mocked by David.

Seeing that he was really getting anxious, David quickly smiled and comforted him: "Man, don't be so impulsive~!"

"While watching the fireworks just now, I came up with a good idea to help Lilith. What do you think? Do you want to hear it?"

Giles stared angrily, resisting the urge to take action, and uttered one word in his mouth: "Speak!"

David glanced around with a smile and saw that the two of them had arrived at the door of the bar. Carew and Xinni were standing next to the car on the street, waving to him and saying hello.

"Hi~Sinnie! Just wait for me~" David waved to him, then put his arms around Giles' neck and whispered in his ear for a while.

After a few minutes.

Giles lowered his head with a confused look on his face. He didn't know if David's idea would work. .What trouble was caused?

David saw that he was hesitant for a moment, so he patted his shoulder and gestured in the direction of Xinni: "That's the gang leader in the Bronx, how about Giles?" ?Are you interested in getting to know him?"

"This.."

Giles looked up at Xinni, hesitating on his face and shaking his head.

"Not interested~"

"I... I'd better discuss this matter with Pine first~!"

"Haha~ ok~ Then you go in first and I'll go talk to him~"

"Ok!"

Giles walked into the bar with his head lowered and all kinds of thoughts in his mind.

Seeing his appearance, David narrowed his eyes and began to sigh in his heart.

hey~

Get involved!

Make things happen in a radical and high-profile way!

If you come up with this bad idea. .I don’t know what kind of effect it will have~

David stood at the door of the bar, scratched his head and sighed, then turned around and called to Sinny, asking him to go into the bar and have a drink with him.

"Sinnie, my friend, come in!"

"Haha~Okay~"

Xinni glanced at Karu beside him, and while walking towards the wildfire, he saw in the direction of the stairwell that the large army of people who were on the rooftop just now had all come down and were ready to go back to the bar to start tonight's celebration.

With a smile on his face, he nodded to Ludy, who was holding Polly in his arms, and then followed David into the wildfire.

When Lu Di saw this guy following David into the bar with a smile, he couldn't help but frown and didn't give him a good look.

in the bar.

David led Xinni to the bar opposite the bartending table, and quickly gave himself and Xinni a drink each.

"I heard... your place in the Bronx is going to be busy tonight?"

He and Xinni clinked their glasses, glanced at the people walking in from outside, and said with a smile.

Xinni curled his lips and shrugged: "The Bronx can't be completely considered my territory now~!"

"There are many small gangs that used to hang out in the concession area, and they have come to the Bronx to grab business."

"Oh?"

David responded with some surprise: "No wonder you rarely see those little gangsters wandering around in the street at Wildfire Bar now!"

"Then you...but you lost a lot for the franchise area, Xinni!"

"Haha~ These are nothing, David."

"Since I was also in Bonini's restaurant that night and chose to sign the agreement, I have to bear the responsibility and consequences... right?"

David caught a glimpse of Ludy settling down Polly, looked over to him, raised a glass to him, turned his head and said to Sinney in deep thought: "Can we skip this paragraph and say something more direct? , Xinni?”

"Uh...hahaha~ok~"

"I also like to speak more frankly~"

"Haha~ So... have you thought about quitting the gang?"

"I've thought about it!" Xinni replied very readily.

"Then...is there anything I can do to help you?"

Xinni smiled, very cheerfully: "David, do you know what I like most about you?"

"Uh... I don't know~!"

"Hahaha~ What I like the most is that you don't mince words when you speak. I like your attitude towards your friends. I like you.. You spare no effort to help old Malkin!"

When David heard what Xinni said, he looked at Ludy who had walked to the bar, laughed and poured Ludy a drink: "Old Malkin has always been a good person in the past few years since I came to New York. Take care of me like a relative."

"If I don't help him, who will I help?"

"Right ~ Ludy!"

Ludy took the wine glass passed by David, took a sip with a smile, and turned to look at Xinni: "Since you are already here, I think if you have anything to say, you should say it directly."

When he saw Xinni opening his mouth to speak to him, he raised his hand and said, "You don't have to tell me~"

"You probably want to talk to David tonight, so...I just sit here and listen. Any decision David makes is my decision. Do you understand? Sinny!?"

Xinni stopped talking.

He looked at David who was smiling, then turned to look at Ludy who looked like a passer-by. He stared down at the wine glass in front of him and thought for a while. He took a long breath and put a smile on his face.

"David, I'm here today just because I want to talk to you, if you can help me get out of my current gang."

"I...what do I need to pay?!"

David looked at Xinni seriously, wiped his hands and thought for a moment, then said, "Have you... bought our company's insurance?"

"Pfft~"

"Cough~cough coughcough~!"

When Ludy heard David asking this question seriously, he couldn't help but laugh out loud, and ended up choking himself. .

David was very dissatisfied with Ludy's behavior as a bystander. He knocked on the bar hard: "Hey, should you go and sit on the side? Stop disturbing our conversation?"

"Ahem~haha~Okay, okay!"

Ludy covered his mouth, stood up and sat further away.

Xinni kept looking on with a smile and was not angry at all because of David's question.

"Your insurance company has not officially launched this product, so I haven't bought it yet."

"Hmm... So you already know about the Anti-Fraud and Corruption Syndicate Crime Act?"

"know."

"What do you think of him?"

"Well...it's just a new trick that the officials came up with to deal with our gang."

"Haha, that's right~"

"Then have you ever thought about why they would want to deal with gangs?"

"Think about it!"

"Actually, you already told them their reasons in Bonini Restaurant, so I won't repeat them again... Haha~"

David smiled, very happily.

at last!

Finally someone took the hint of what he said in Bonini's restaurant and came to visit!

"Sinnie, I have to say I'm very lucky!"

"Hahaha~ I'm David too!"

"Cheers, Cinnie!"

"Haha~ Cheers!"

David smiled and raised his glass, taking a sip to his lips, his eyes darting around the bar and finding Giovanni.

"Hey~Giovanni, come here man!"

At this time, Giovanni, who was sitting with his second brother Lavis and bragging, heard David's shout, turned around and pointed at himself: "Me?"

"Yes, it's you! Haha~"

"ok~"

Giovanni stood up and came to the bar, gestured to Ludy, smiled and asked David: "Yes...what's the matter?"

"Man, please help me tell Brother Biao to deliver some food and drinks to Lawrence and the others. Then you can help me call Lawrence. I have something to talk to him about."

"Meals, Laurence? OK! I'll go right away." Giovanni confirmed to David, then turned around and went to do the work.

When David saw him leaving, he made another cocktail for Sinni and handed it to Sinni: "Tell me about your plans for the future and your upcoming retirement life~"

"Haha~ I'm not that old, David!"

"Okay~ Then let me ask another question!"

"How much money have you prepared for retirement?"

"Uh...cough! Cough cough~"

Sinney choked himself as he listened to David's question that went straight to his wallet. .

Not far away, Ludy grinned widely, showing his big white teeth, and his body was trembling with laughter. .

David took a half step back helplessly and handed a clean tissue to Sinney.

"Well...if you don't feel comfortable speaking, you don't have to answer!"

"No...cough~cough~it's okay~cough!"

"I just...that...cough!~If we only count cash, it would be almost 300 million dollars."

Xinni covered his mouth and finally said a number.

David nodded and muttered softly: "300 million dollars?"

"Have you ever thought about how much it costs to buy insurance?"

"One million dollars!"

"Wow~ You are really... heroic!!"

"Hahaha~ Of course, the president can give homeless people more than $500 a month, why can't I insure my own life?"

"Haha~ Xinni, I have to admire your wisdom!"

"No, David, I have to thank you for this opportunity!"

"Okay~ Let's stop complimenting each other~"

"Have you ever thought about how to spend the remaining 200 million?"

"Well... part of it will be invested in your angel investment, part of it will be bought by some treasury bonds or deposited in the bank, and the rest... I haven't decided yet!"

"Then...Sinni, are you interested in hearing my thoughts?"

"Of course ~ I'm here tonight just to hear your thoughts!"

"ok!~"

He gestured with his fingers: "Xinni, you need to open a formal and legal company of your own!"

"it is good!"

"What do you think... about starting a record label?"

"Record?" Xinni blinked, not quite understanding what David's sudden turn meant!

David shrugged and said with a smile: "You must not know much about the music industry, right?"

"Indeed not~!"

"Haha~ Actually they are very simple!"

"You only need to produce records for the singers signed by our management company and find distribution channels, and we will make a lot of money for you!"

"Your singer?"

"David, since when did you have your own singer?"

"It was true that it didn't exist before, but now..."

David pointed at Madonna in the distance, who was busy with Brother Biao, preparing to deliver food to Lawrence and the others.

"Look, it's that girl. We're going to train her, and then create a series of new songs tailored for her, and package her into the latest generation of music queen-level singer!"

"she?"

Xinni looked at the back of Madonna who was not tall and had a good figure in the distance, scratching his head and saying doubtfully.

"Can she do it? Can she sing?"

"Haha~ It definitely won't work now, but it will definitely work in a few years!"

"Then...how much does it cost to open a record label?"

"I don't know either~!"

"what???"

Xinni looked at David with a question mark on his face, and felt the urge to reach out and strangle him to death!

"Hahaha~Sinni, don't get excited, man!"

"We can jointly invest in this record company, and you and I will be the bosses, so you should be able to relax, right?"

"it is good!"

When Xinni heard that David also wanted to invest, he rowed up the bar and startled Ludy who was not far away.

"If you also participate in this record company, you don't have to pay. I will give you 30% of the shares. As long as you can ensure that it makes money, I will do the rest!"

"Uh...hehe~ Then...it's settled!"

David readily accepted this decision, smiled and extended his hand to Xinni.

"Deal!" Xinni also smiled and held David's hand, nodding in response.

The two settled on the record company matter, and David felt that bringing Sinni in this time would be a decision that could save him a lot of trouble.
