Li Xuan stood outside the delivery room of the clinic, walking back and forth non-stop. After a while, he raised his hand and raised his watch, with a very serious expression on his face. ○ Zhong Chuhong has been in for more than an hour, and every minute he is outside feels like a year.

"Is there a cigarette?" Li Xuan asked the elder brother Li Ke next to him. The Li family and the Zhong family took Li Xuan's private jet to New York together a few days ago to welcome the arrival of the first new life of the third generation of the two families.

"Hehe, I've never seen the 'God of Fortune Li' who can't change everything so nervous! Don't worry, this is the best clinic in New York. Didn't the doctor say that Ah Hong is only in labor pains before giving birth! Having a baby is a little more difficult, not to mention that Ah Hong is pregnant with a twin, it is normal for a longer time!" Li Ke saw this younger brother, even in the face of a multi-billion dollar business, he could never be calm, but At this moment, when I want to be a father, my face is full of anxiety, and I can't help comforting him.

Li Xuan took the cigarette that Li Ke had just pulled out of his pocket and took one out of his mouth. He doesn't actually smoke, but at this moment he just wants to use nicotine to anesthetize himself, so that the tense nerves can relax for a while.

Given the current medical technology, childbirth is no longer a very risky thing. Even if vaginal delivery is not possible, doctors can arrange a caesarean section at any time according to the condition of the pregnant woman. But Li Xuan still couldn't calm himself down. The feeling of being a father for the first time couldn't be described in words.

Li Ke took out a lighter, ready to hand it to his brother. But Li Xuan suddenly took off the cigarette from his mouth again. He walked directly to the information desk not far away and discussed a few words with the nurse on duty.

The nurse on duty made a call. Li Xuan then grabbed the phone from the nurse and said a few words before nodding to the nurse.

"Dad. Mom, I told the doctor in charge. I'm going to go to the delivery room to accompany Ah Hong later. You don't have to worry too much when you're outside, the doctor said there won't be any major problems!" Li Xuan came over and comforted, The four elderly people who were also very nervous.

Originally, the doctor did not agree with the family members to go in to accompany the delivery, but Li Xuan himself strongly requested, and he is the most honored customer of the clinic. The doctor who was finally in charge of delivering Zhong Chuhong's birth still agreed with his request, so Li Xuan is going to undergo a comprehensive disinfection now, and then spend the next difficult pain with his wife.

"Take a deep breath! Come on! Work hard! The doctor said that my brother is healthy, and my sister's head has been exposed. Just a little harder, and it will be fine soon!"

Li Xuan held Zhong Chuhong's hand and let her nails dig into his own flesh, sharing the pain with her. Finally, in a burst of cheers in the delivery room, the twins were born smoothly. It was the elder brother who came out to greet the world first, and the younger sister who came to this world later.

Li Xuan looked at Zhong Chuhong, who was dripping with sweat, and sympathetically helped her straighten the bangs in front of her forehead, and then kissed her. Lying in her ear, he said softly, "Thank you, dear, for your hard work!"

Although Zhong Chuhong was a little weak, the smile on his face was very warm. At this time, the nurse held the already bathed. Two children wrapped in silk scarves came to their parents. The new father and new mother are holding a child each, and their movements are still a bit stiff, for fear of making the baby in their arms uncomfortable. But the kindness on his face could not be hidden.

The two newly born little guys are closing their eyes and their faces are wrinkled. Not cute at all. But Li Xuan has a kind of blood-connected touch. He feels that his life has been sublimated at this moment, because he finally has the most authentic connection with this world.

A nurse holds two children. Pushing their mother out of the delivery room together. The family members who were anxiously waiting outside suddenly gathered around. The resistance of the newborn child is still very weak, so the doctor only allowed the grandparents, grandparents and the little guy to meet once, and urged the nurse to send the twins to the specially prepared sterile baby room with constant temperature.

Although the four old people were a little dissatisfied, they still followed the doctor's arrangement. And Li Ke quickly took out a stack of red envelopes that had already been prepared, ready to send a profit envelope to every doctor and nurse.

"Thank you, Mr. Smith! Please accept the red envelope that my brother sent on behalf of our whole family. This is not a tip, but a tradition of our Orientals that means auspiciousness and joy!"

Accepting gifts from patients' families is definitely a serious matter in the American medical industry. Therefore, the doctors and nurses present avoided what Li Ke handed over, which made him a little embarrassed. So Li Xuan had to speak out to his eldest brother. The authoritativeness of his speech as the richest man in the world was obviously very high. The doctors and nurses present smiled and accepted the letter.

"Aaron, the results on Washington's side are out?" Li Xuan finally found his assistant Ke Lilun standing beside the crowd. , Li Xuan had previously arranged another assistant of his, Sophie, to help in the clinic, and Ke Lilun, who had just come to the United States, was arranged by him at Dongfang Electronics' office in New York to deliver the latest news from Washington at any time.

Since Coolillon came to the clinic on purpose, Li Xuan guessed that the acquisition of Dongfang Electronics must have had a final result.

"Li Sheng, today is a double happiness! News just came from Washington that the Committee on Foreign Investment in the United States approved the Oriental Electronics Group's M&A application for an American company 40 minutes ago!" Ke Lilun said the good news with joy on his face .

This is indeed a good thing to be overjoyed! After being approved by the Committee on Foreign Investment in the United States, Orient Group has been preparing for this tense for several months, and the acquisition of the company has finally settled.

For Li Xuan, the greater significance behind this lies in the US government's recognition of the Eastern bloc, at least not excluding it from the rules of Western capitalism. The Oriental Group can only let go of its hands and feet in the next competition if it proves its innocence.

After all, as the influence of the Oriental Group becomes stronger and stronger, the waves caused by every move in the future will also become bigger and bigger. Li Xuan never thought that the Oriental Group would obtain super-national treatment in the competition in the overseas market, but at least he had to ensure that he would not be discriminated against.

"Li, I heard that you have become a father. Congratulations!" John Reed of Citibank gave Li Xuan a warm hug.

After being approved by the Committee on Foreign Investment, Oriental Group signed a formal acquisition agreement with the company. Subsequently. Li Xuan and the Oriental Group held a grand celebration dinner at the Waldorf Astoria Hotel in Manhattan. Citibank is behind the merger. One of the most important financial supporters was naturally warmly invited by Li Xuan.

Although Li Xuan rejected the penetration of the US consortium into Dongfang Electronics, but if he wants to do business in the US, he must learn to share interests. The real control of the United States is by no means the entire American people. The four-yearly presidential election is nothing but an illusion introduced by consortia to fool ordinary people.

Politicians who do not conform to the interests of the consortium have no chance at all to become candidates for president, congressman, and governor. Even if some politicians turn their faces and refuse to admit their accounts after coming to power, the consortium has enough means to get these disobedient wolf dogs down again, from the peach-colored incident. From corruption scandals to outright assassinations.

The United States has only a short history of more than 200 years, but as many as nine presidents have been assassinated, and five of them died directly. This includes Lincoln and Kennedy. It can be said that the President of the United States is definitely one of the most dangerous heads of state in the world.

Behind Citibank stands the First Citigroup. The world-famous Boeing Company, the electronics giant Xerox, which has a much longer history than Eastern Electronics, and the Minnesota Mining and Manufacturing Company, which is little known to foreigners but well-known in the United States, are all companies controlled by the First Citigroup.

And this time the Oriental Electronics merger and acquisition company, spent 5.22 billion US dollars in cash. There are 2.5 billion loans from Citibank. For the next few years, Citibank could sit on hundreds of millions of dollars in interest income each year.

In fact, the three major rating companies, including Standard & Poor's, Fitch International, and Moody's, generally give Dongfang Group and its subsidiaries very high corporate ratings. It can be said that Li Xuan holds a bunch of very high-quality companies. Don't be afraid to find a source of loan at all.

And Citibank easily grabbed this piece of fatty fresh meat. Li Xuan chose Citibank not only because it is the largest commercial bank in the United States, but also through the first Citigroup. This is the most expansive consortium among the top ten consortiums in the United States in recent years, to resist the pressure exerted by other forces on the Eastern Company.

"Thank you very much for Citibank and John, for your great support to Dongfang Electronics!" Li Xuan said very politely.

"I also want to thank you for sending us such a good deal of money!" Reed said, patting Li Xuan's shoulder lightly.

In Citibank decided to take over Li Xuan. From the moment the loan was provided, the two became the closest partners.

After Li Xuan and Reed exchanged a few words, they saw another noble lady in a pale red evening dress not far away.

"Ms. Hogan, good evening, you are so beautiful today!" Li Xuan sent his compliments very gentlemanly.

"Mr. Li, thank you for inviting me to the celebration dinner tonight! In two days, I hope Angel Care Fund will hold a charity auction at the Hilton Hotel. I wonder if I have the honor to invite you to participate?"

The dignified white lady named Kate. Hogan, her husband Alb. Hogan is the current US Secretary of the Treasury - Treasury. The Foreign Investment Committee under the auspices of Orb Hogan has just approved Li Xuan's acquisition of the company, and he naturally wants to reciprocate.

"Every child is an angel sent by God to the world. Thanks to the favor of the Lord, my wife and I have just harvested two lovely angels! I hope to be a qualified father, and I am willing to contribute myself to guarding those angels with broken wings. A part of the power!" Li Xuan, an atheist, now shows a very pious look.

The Hope Angels Care Fund mentioned by Kate Hogan earlier is a charitable foundation established by herself to help runaway and abused children. It is not difficult to set up a charitable fund in the United States, and many celebrities are very fond of setting up various charitable funds to enhance their style.

Moreover, the restrictions on charities in the United States are not strict, and only 5% of the total assets need to be used for charities every year to pass the audit of relevant American institutions. Therefore, charity has often become an excellent means of tax avoidance for many wealthy Americans.

The rich put all their assets into a charitable fund through naked donations, and the funds they need to use for charity every year are far less than the taxes they need to pay. Although their property no longer belongs to them in name, they can firmly control the foundation in their own hands by formulating the normative guidelines for charitable funds in advance. .

In addition to often serving as a tax avoidance tool for the wealthy in the United States, charitable funds are also a tool for politicians to collect money. For example, Kate Hogan's Angel of Hope Care Fund, the reason why most of the donors donated to her is because of Orb Hogan's huge political influence.

U.S. officials are subject to very strict supervision and restrictions on the surface, and even accepting small gifts of tens of dollars from others, or a dinner banquet, may be slammed by political opponents. But as the saying goes, there are policies from above and countermeasures from below, and everyone naturally has a set of ingenious means of making money in private.

For example, after Kate Hogan established the Hope Angel Care Fund~www.wuxiaspot.com~ I participated in the daily operation of the fund and naturally could receive a considerable amount of legal salary from the foundation. Of course, the family incomes of many important political figures need to be publicly disclosed, so naturally they cannot go too far.

However, daily expenses like Kate Hogan can easily be made into the operating costs of the Hope Angel Fund. For example, on the necklace that Ms. Kate Hogan is wearing now, the amethyst is expensive at first glance.

But unless everyone has a **** feud with Mr. Finance-Secretary, who would want to offend such a high-ranking official and investigate the question of how many months of Mr. Hogan's salary will be required to investigate this amethyst. What if the family's gems are rented from a jewelry company?

However, in order to thank Mr. Hogan for his help and support to Dongfang Electronics, Li Xuan will definitely return all these thanks to Mrs. Hogan's charitable cause.

Li Xuan shuttled through the banquet hall and greeted all the guests cordially. This celebration dinner is actually a continuation of the merger. Many people who have helped the acquisition, either explicitly or implicitly, should thank Li Xuan one by one and give corresponding returns. (To be continued..)
