Chapter 1678 Temptation

After Li Mu and Du Wei successfully completed the customs formalities, they followed Schwarzenegger's motorcade to his villa in Sacramento.

It was said to be a villa, but when we arrived, I realized that it was actually more appropriate to call it a manor.

The entire villa covers an area of ​​more than 10,000 square meters, and the construction area accounts for almost one-third. The rest are lawns, swimming pools, and various green plants.

The garage alone has five parking spaces, and the garage is fully enclosed and can be directly accessed from the garage to the interior of the villa.

Different from the large manor of the Goldberg family, the manor of the Goldberg family is an ancient castle far away from the urban area. There are historical reasons for its huge area and huge building area.

Schwarzenegger's villa here is completely modern architecture, and the design is very elegant, and it is more practical than the centuries-old castle.

Compared with this place, Li Mu felt that his villa in Ziyun Villa was really weak.

Li Mu asked Schwarzenegger curiously: "Arnold, how much did your villa cost?"

"It's less than four million dollars in total," Schwarzenegger said with a smile.

Li Mu said in surprise, "It's less than four million dollars for such a big villa?"

Schwarzenegger nodded and explained: "Sacramento's housing prices are not high. If it is in Los Angeles, such a manor will start at least 10 million US dollars. If it is in the San Francisco Bay Area, the price will be doubled. times."

Li Mu nodded lightly, housing prices in the United States have always been relatively rational, with the exception of special cases such as San Francisco, Los Angeles, and Manhattan.

Schwarzenegger said: "Many Internet billionaires from Silicon Valley live in the Bay Area. The living environment there is very good. If Mr. Li is interested, he may wish to buy a real estate in the Bay Area in the future."

Li Mu said with a smile: "If the business in the United States increases in the future, it is not impossible to buy a house in the Bay Area, after all, it is close to Silicon Valley."

While chatting with Li Mu, Schwarzenegger guided him and others to the interior of the villa.

Schwarzenegger's wife and their four children also gathered at the door to greet them with great enthusiasm.

They were greeted at the door with their family, and Celine Dion's husband, a music producer at least twenty years her senior.

Schwarzenegger took the initiative to introduce his beautiful wife, two boys, two girls and four children to Li Mu.

His wife, Maria Shriver, was a beautiful and temperamental white woman.

Li Mu shook hands with her politely, and she smiled and said, "Mr. Li, thank you for your help to Arnold. Without you, he would not have won this election at all."

Li Mu smiled slightly and said, "Trust me Maria, even without me, Mr. Schwarzenegger can still succeed."

Maria glanced at Schwarzenegger, then smiled and said: "Arnold stepped into politics for the first time, and I was worried about whether his ability could handle this position, but he has friends like you, Mr. Li, I will completely Don’t worry, I hope Mr. Li can help Arnold a little more in the future, so that he will not make himself a big joke in the United States in the future. Of course, if Mr. Li needs Arnold’s help in the future, we will definitely do our best.”

Li Mu smiled noncommittally, but thought to himself, this Maria speaks very directly, directly mentioning the key points in both sentences, and she is always praising herself. She does not seem to be an ordinary family woman, much like Clinton did Hillary by his side when he was president.

So, he smiled and said to Schwarzenegger: "Arnold, you really married a good wife!"

Schwarzenegger laughed and said to Li Mu in a low voice, "Maria is the niece of the former US President Kennedy. Although she is not named Kennedy, she is also a member of the Kennedy family. People from the Kennedy family sometimes speak so directly, Please forgive me, Mr. Li."

After speaking, Schwarzenegger said again: "But Maria is right about one thing, without your help, Mr. Li,

I'm definitely not going to get elected.

In Schwarzenegger's eyes, Li Mu's help played a very important role in his successful election as the governor of California.

But Li Mu knew in his heart that Schwarzenegger could be elected by himself, and he was just helping him icing on the cake.

However, Li Mu was not overly modest. On the contrary, he felt that Maria was a very difficult woman. He told himself this as soon as he came up. He should be testing his position on Schwarzenegger, hoping to get his own opinion.

Moreover, in the few words Maria just said, she has actually expressed her position for Schwarzenegger. Schwarzenegger is willing to cooperate with him in depth. The rest is whether he is willing to cooperate with him in depth.

Li Mu thought of this, smiled lightly, and said to Maria and Schwarzenegger: "I hope we can cooperate deeply in the future, support and help each other, I am very optimistic about Arnold's achievements in the position of Governor of California. Yes, so I will do what I can to support Arnold in achieving this goal."

The husband and wife looked at each other, and both were excited by Li Mu's answer.

Originally, they were worried that Li Mu would not be willing to play this kind of petty governor game with them, but they did not expect that Li Mu had no air at all, and even expressed his willingness to cooperate deeply with them. Schwarzenegger took a real reassurance.

Schwarzenegger couldn't hide his excitement and said: "Mr. Li, I specially prepared a Chinese meal, let's go to the restaurant now!"

Li Mu nodded lightly, and Schwarzenegger hurriedly made a gesture of invitation, politely and respectfully leading the way for Li Mu.

Schwarzenegger, who is in his fifties, can be regarded as a senior in Hollywood, but when facing Li Mu, he completely placed himself in a lower position, even if it was earlier. When he met the President of the United States in 2010, he had never been so polite.

This is also normal in Schwarzenegger's view. Although Li Mu is young, he has a huge business empire behind him, and he is the owner of this business empire, and his strength is indeed very powerful;

In contrast, although the President of the United States is in charge of the country with the most comprehensive strength in the world, he is only a professional manager who briefly controls the country. Even when he is in office, his rights will be greatly restricted, not to mention the few Retire after a year.

The old Schwarzenegger has strong political ambitions deep in his heart, and is eager to establish a long-term cooperative relationship with Li Mu, and use Li Mu's energy to help him do his job as governor better, even if it is just to give himself some publicity. Resources can also solve big problems for themselves.

Every election in the United States, candidates spend a lot of campaign funds, and a large part of this money goes into propaganda resources.

It can be said that whoever has a strong publicity channel has already won at the starting line.

What's more, any politician in the United States needs the support of a sponsor, and there is no one stronger than Li Mu right now.

...

When he came to the restaurant, Li Mu found that there were several chefs with Chinese faces busy. There were a lot of Chinese dishes on the table, and they also specially prepared exquisite Chinese china.

Schwarzenegger invited Li Mu and everyone to sit down, and then said to Li Mu: "Today's Chinese chefs were specially invited from Los Angeles. They are all very good Chinese chefs, and I hope their dishes can meet Li Mu's needs. Your taste, sir."

At this time, a stern Chinese chef walked to the restaurant and said to Li Mu in slightly accented Chinese, "Mr. Li, we have also prepared a carefully stewed Buddha Jumping Over the Wall for you, which will be ready in a few minutes."

Schwarzenegger introduced: "It is said that Buddha Jumps over the Wall is a famous Chinese dish, so I ordered one on my own. I don't know if Mr. Li likes it or not. If he doesn't like it, I will let the chef prepare other dishes."

"I'm fine." Li Mu smiled slightly and said, "Arnold, you're so polite. I don't have high standards for eating, so I don't have to worry about it."

Schwarzenegger hurriedly said: "Mr. Li flew over so far to cheer for me. These are also what I should do."

With that said, Schwarzenegger took out two bottles of Maotai from the wine cabinet next to him, and said to Li Mu, "Mr. Li, it must be very hard to sit on the plane for so long. Let's drink two glasses, and you can relieve your fatigue."

Li Mu did not refuse.

However, at the dinner table, when Li Muzhen and Schwarzenegger exchanged glasses, he realized that Schwarzenegger's drinking is not just a little bit.

After Li Mu drank a few ounces of white wine, he felt a little drunk.

Celine Dion also heard Maria's intention, and she also wanted to seize the huge opportunity of Li Mu, but she put the starting point on Du Wei.

Because she felt that, unlike Schwarzenegger, she could use the position of governor to conspire to invest Li Mu's resources. If so, it is better to start directly from Li Mu's sister. "

Therefore, she has been taking time to chat with Du Wei about music-related matters. Unlike Schwarzenegger who directly used her status as governor in exchange for Li Mu's resources, she hoped to borrow Du Wei's hand in exchange for Li Mu's resources.

...

After the meal, Schwarzenegger greeted the servants and asked them to take Li Mu's assistant and bodyguard to the guest room on the third floor to rest, while he personally took Li Mu and Du Wei to the second floor.

According to Schwarzenegger, the villa has nineteen bedrooms.

There are five rooms on the first floor of the villa, where servants, drivers and bodyguards live. There are seven bedrooms on the second and third floors. The third floor is full of guest rooms. The second floor is for him and his children. Or very important guests are arranged to stay on the second floor.

On the entire second floor, Schwarzenegger and his wife lived in one room, his two sons each had a room, and his two daughters lived in the same room. There were just three remaining rooms, one of which was assigned to Celine Dion. , the remaining two rooms were assigned to Li Mu and Du Wei.

Du Wei has been chatting with Celine Dion, and it seems that the two of them are chatting quite speculatively, Schwarzenegger said to Celine Dion at the entrance of the stairs: "Celine, the room arranged for Miss Du is just Next door to your room, if it's convenient for you, just accompany Miss Du, I think you can chat better."

Celine Dion nodded immediately and said to Du Wei: "You live next door to me, we can discuss music together at night!"
