Chapter 115 Prince

Harry Lyon was buried, and not many people were present on the day he was buried.

The incident of his death was only spread to the school several months after the funeral was completed.

On the day Virginia and Danforth broke up, Evan went back to school and asked someone to help him do an experiment.

Charles' case was suddenly upgraded to the review sequence. On February 6, after a summary trial, Charles was sentenced to 18 months in prison.

However, when he was taken to San Luis Obispo Men's Prison, Charles suffered a sudden cerebral hemorrhage and died on the way to the hospital.

In less than half a month, the Lyon family had to handle the funeral again.

February 9, Sunday, noon.

Hollywood Hotel, 6811 Hollywood Avenue.

This hotel, built in 1901, has elegant wooden structures and a stucco facade of Mission Revival (Mission Revival) style. It is one of Hollywood's iconic buildings. In the early days of Hollywood's development, many film industry practitioners held conferences and cocktail parties here, and was once the most famous social venue in Hollywood. In the early years, the popular idol and actor Rudolph Valentino, known as the "Latin lover", lived in a hotel for a long time.

The owner of the hotel is Charles Toberman, a real estate developer whose company is one of the largest landlords in Hollywood. Known as "Mr. Hollywood" and "Father of Hollywood", Toberman has developed numerous Hollywood iconic buildings including the Hollywood Bowl, the Chinese Theater, the El Capitan Theater, the Roosevelt Hotel in Hollywood, the Grauman Egyptian Theater and the Masonic Temple.

Because it is a wooden building, after more than 40 years of wind and sun exposure, it has lost its scenery at this time, so naturally fewer and fewer people come here to consume, and the business conditions are getting worse and worse.

Of course, in other words, here is quiet and you can avoid being disturbed if you talk about things.

At this time, Evan, who was lying on a wooden lounge chair and basking in the sun on the wide balcony of a room in the hotel, guessed that the other party chose this because of this.

Evan glanced at the watch and it was almost time to come, and the other party should be about to appear.

Just as Evan thought so, a slight vibration came from the floor.

Someone came up.

After a while, a middle-aged and elderly man with a round belly and half-bald hair walked towards the room where Evan was under the guidance of the hotel waiter.

Behind the old man was several men in black.

This person is the one Evan is going to meet today.

Evan stood up from the chair, tidied up his suit, left the balcony, returned to the house, and met the man.

"Hello, Mr. Frederick H. Prince! Thank you for accepting my banquet."

Evan stretched out his hand and greeted.

Frederick and Evan shook hands, looked at him without any concealment, and smiled and said, "Hello Evan Warren, I have been famous for a long time to you. I am worthy of a genius who can be worth millions at a young age. When I see you today, I am indeed a masterpiece, and my future achievements are limitless."

"You're too rewarded!" Evan smiled, let go of his hand, and said, "For you and your family, I'm just a junior."

He stretched his hand to the long dining table next to him and suggested, "Let's sit down and say, how?"

Frederick nodded and sat down at the dining table while saying:

"Speaking of this, we had the chance to meet each other earlier, but unfortunately, you think the price we paid was too low."

"Instant noodles are indeed a good thing, but now it's cheaper, Ando's little monkey!"

Evan sat down opposite him after Frederick sat down. Hearing Frederick talk about the past of instant noodles, Evan said calmly without any embarrassment: "This can only mean Ando has the vision and courage to place bets on all his wealth."

"For me, of course, whoever bids to cooperate with him."

That's right, Mr. Frederick is the director of Amor Foods, which made the highest bid and almost won the instant noodle patent. At the same time, he is the son of Frederick, the founder of Prince, the controlling shareholder of Amor Foods.

Frederick, the old country, is a nationally famous investment banker and financier. He is an individual member of the New York Stock Exchange and a big funder of the Democratic Party. He once strongly supported President Franklin Roosevelt during the Great Depression.

The reason why Evan did not agree to cooperate with Amore Food immediately was because of this concern. As the son of Republican governor, Evan felt that he could not get too close to people from the Democratic Party.

Later, as Evan deepened his understanding of his governor's political philosophy and became familiar with the rules of action in the American political arena, he realized that his concern at that time was actually because he was thinking too much.

You should know that although his gubernator's father is a well-deserved boss of the California Republican Party, he publicly claimed more than once during the governor's election campaign last year that his position was non-partisan.

At that time, Evan really learned that the governor's father was actually positioned as a non-partisan since he ran for governor in 1942. This was one of the labels that he could defeat others and become governor.

This is one of the reasons why Earl Warren was able to win the Republican and Democratic primary elections at the same time during the gubernatorial primary election last year.

Speaking of which, this kind of competitive and cooperative relationship between different political parties in the United States made Evan, who was accustomed to the "party and the differences", change his mind for a long time.

Since there was no concern in this regard, Evan contacted Frederick with confidence.

After a while, the old and the young smiled and greeted each other, the wine and food provided by the hotel were served.

Halfway through the meal, Frederick finally couldn't help but ask, "Evan, I wonder why you invited me here today?"

Evan wiped his mouth with a napkin and asked the waiter to remove the plate in front of him, and asked him to ask irresponse: "I heard that your company's newly launched 'Dial' soap has sold well, and it seems that it has a chance to become another pillar product of Amor."

Frederick didn't understand Evan's intention to suddenly mention this, frowned, and nodded slightly, "Let me borrow your auspicious words."

At this time, Evan clapped his palms, and Bob, who was standing beside him, immediately delivered a folder to his hand.

After Evan took the folder, he placed it on the table and pushed it towards Frederick.

He smiled and said, "I have a report here. I don't know if I'm interested in taking a look."

Frederick took the folder in confusion, then opened it and slowly looked at it. As he looked, his face became increasingly ugly.

Not long after, he closed the folder suddenly, looked at Evan with a gloomy face, and asked, "Evan, what do you mean?"

Evan kept smiling and said, "Mr. Frederick, you don't have to be so nervous. Only I know about this for the time being."

Frederick narrowed his eyes and asked again, "What do you want?"

Evan did not answer his question, but asked back: "I heard that the 'Dial' product was recommended by a manager named Danfos Amor, your California branch, right?"
