Chapter 1678

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

It's a villa. I found it when I arrived. In fact, it's better to call it a manor.

The whole villa covers an area of more than 10000 square meters, accounting for almost a third of the building area. The rest is lawn, swimming pool and various green plants.

There are five parking spaces in the garage alone, and the garage is totally enclosed. You can enter the villa directly from the garage.

Different from the big estate of Goldberg family, Goldberg family's estate is an ancient castle far away from the city, which covers a large area and has a huge construction area for historical reasons.

Schwarzenegger's villa here is completely modern architecture, and the design is very elegant, and it is more practical than the ancient castle with hundreds of years of history.

Compared with here, Li Mu feels that his villa in Ziyun villa is really weak.

Li Mu asked Schwarzenegger curiously, "Arnold, how much did you spend on this villa?"

Schwarzenegger said with a smile, "the total cost is less than four million dollars."

Li Mu is surprised to say: "such a large villa, as long as less than four million dollars?"

Schwarzenegger nodded and explained: "Sacramento's house price is not high. If it's in Los Angeles, such a manor will cost at least $10 million to start. If it's in the bay area, the price will double again."

Li Mu nodded softly. The house prices in the United States have always been relatively rational, except for special cases such as San Francisco, Los Angeles and Manhattan.

"Many Internet tycoons who come out of Silicon Valley live in the bay area, where the living environment is very good. If Mr. Li is interested, he might as well buy a real estate in the Bay Area in the future," schwarzinger said

"If there is more business in the United States in the future, it's not impossible to buy a house in the bay area. After all, it's close to Silicon Valley," Li said with a smile

While talking with Li Mu, Schwarzenegger led him and others to the villa.

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

They were greeted at the door by Celine Dion's husband, a music producer at least 20 years her senior.

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

His wife's name is Maria Shriver, and she is a beautiful and charming white woman.

Li Mu politely shook hands with her, and she said with a smile: "Mr. Li, thank you for your help to Arnold. Without you, he could not win the election."

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

Maria looked at Schwarzenegger, then said with a smile: "Arnold stepped into politics for the first time. I was worried about whether his ability could control this position. But he has a friend like Mr. Li and you. I'm totally relieved. I hope Mr. Li can help Arnold a little more in the future, so that he won't make himself a big joke in America. Of course, he will If there's anything Mr. Li can do for Arnold, we will do our best. "

Li Mu smiled, but thought to himself, this Maria spoke very directly, both of which mentioned the key points directly, and always praised herself. She didn't look like an ordinary family woman, much like Hillary Clinton who was beside him when Clinton was president.

So he said to Schwarzenegger with a smile, "Arnold, you really have a good wife!"

Schwarzenegger laughed and said to Li Mu in a low voice, "Maria is the niece of former President Kennedy of the United States. Although she is not Kennedy, she is also a member of the Kennedy family. Sometimes the members of the Kennedy family talk so directly. Please forgive me."

With that, Schwarzenegger added: "but Maria is right about one thing. Without your help from Mr. Li, I can't be elected successfully.

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

But Li Mu knew that Schwarzenegger could be elected by himself, and he was just helping him to make the best of it.

However, Li Mu is not too modest. On the contrary, he thinks that Maria is not a simple woman. When she comes up, she tells herself that she should be exploring her position towards Schwarzenegger, hoping to get her own voice.

What's more, in those words that Maria just said, she has already made a statement for Schwarzenegger. Schwarzenegger is willing to cooperate with him in depth. The rest is whether she is willing to cooperate with him in depth.

Li Mu thought of this and smiled calmly, and said to Maria and Schwarzenegger, "I hope we can cooperate in depth, support and help each other in the future. I am very optimistic that Arnold will make some achievements in the position of governor of California, so I will also give all the help I can to support Arnold to achieve this goal."

The husband and wife look at each other and are excited about Li Mu's answer.Originally, they worried that Li Mu would not like to play this kind of skirmish game with them, but unexpectedly, Li Mu didn't have any airs, and even said that he would like to cooperate with them in depth, so that he would give Schwarzenegger a real sense of concentration.

Schwarzenegger said excitedly, "Mr. Li, I specially asked people to prepare Chinese food. Let's go to the restaurant now!"

Li Mu nodded softly, and Schwarzenegger hurriedly made a gesture of invitation, politely and respectfully guiding Li Mu.

Schwarzenegger, who is in his fifties, can be regarded as a senior in the whole Hollywood, but when facing Li Mu, he completely put himself in a lower position. Even when he saw the president of the United States earlier, he was not so polite.

In Schwarzenegger's view, this is also normal. Although Li Mu is very young, he has a huge commercial empire behind him, and he is the owner of this commercial empire. His strength is indeed very strong;

in contrast, although the president of the United States is in charge of the most powerful country in the world, he is just a professional manager in charge of this country for a short time, that is Even when he is in office, his rights will be greatly restricted, let alone he will step down in a few years.

Old Schwarzenegger has a strong political ambition in his heart. He is eager to establish a long-term cooperative relationship with Li Mu. With Li Mu's energy, he can help himself to do the job of governor better. Even if he only gives himself some publicity resources, he can also solve big problems for himself.

Every election in the United States, the candidates have to spend a lot of campaign money, a large part of which has been thrown into propaganda resources.

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

What's more, any American politician needs the support of the gold master. At present, there is no more powerful gold master than Li Mu.

……

When he came to the restaurant, Li Mu found that there were several chefs with Chinese faces who were busy. On the table, there were many dishes of Chinese food, and they also specially prepared exquisite Chinese porcelain.

Schwarzenegger invited Li Mu and the people to sit down, and then he opened his mouth to Li Mu and said, "today's Chinese cooks are specially invited from Los Angeles. They are all very excellent Chinese cooks. I hope that the food they make will conform to your taste, Mr. Li."

At this time, a Chinese chef who does not laugh walked to the restaurant and said to Li Mu in a slightly accented Chinese: "Mr. Li, we have prepared a carefully stewed Buddha jumping wall for you. You can have it in a few minutes."

Schwarzenegger said: "it is said that fotiaoqiang is a famous Chinese dish, so I ordered one on my own. I don't know whether Mr. Li likes it or not. If not, I will ask the chef to prepare other dishes."

"I can do it." Li Mu smiled and said, "Arnold, you are so kind. I don't have a high standard for eating, so I don't have to worry about it."

Schwarzenegger hurriedly said, "Mr. Li has come so far to give me a lift. These are all the things I should do."

With that, Schwarzenegger took out two bottles of Maotai from the nearby wine cabinet and said to Li Mu, "Mr. Li, it must be very hard to fly for such a long time. Let's have two drinks. You can also relieve your fatigue."

Li Mu did not refuse.

However, at the dinner table, when Li Muzhen and Schwarzenegger push the cup to replace it, he found that Schwarzenegger's liquor is not only a little bit good.

After drinking a few liang of white wine, Li Mu felt a little drunk.

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

Because she felt that she was not able to use the governor's position as Schwarzenegger to plan for Li Mu's resources investment, so it would be better to start directly from Li Mu's sister. "

Therefore, she has been taking time to talk about music related matters with Dewey. Unlike Schwarzenegger, who directly uses the identity of governor in exchange for Li Mu's resources, she hopes to borrow Dewey's hand in exchange for Li Mu's resources.

……

After dinner, Schwarzenegger asked the servants to take Li Mu's assistant and bodyguard to the guest room on the third floor for a rest. He took Li Mu and Du Wei to the second floor.

According to Schwarzenegger, the villa has nineteen bedrooms.

On the first floor of the villa, there are five rooms, all of which are servants, drivers and bodyguards. On the second and third floors, there are seven bedrooms each. On the third floor, there are all rooms. On the second floor, there are rooms for him and his children. Occasionally, there are relatives or very important guests, so they are arranged to stay on the second floor.

On the second floor, Schwarzenegger and his wife share a room, his two sons share a room, and his two daughters share the same room. There are just three rooms left, one for Celine Dion, and the other two for Li Mu and Du Wei.

Dewey has been chatting with Celine Dion, and it seems that the two people are talking very opportunely. Schwarzenegger said to Celine Dion at the stairway: "Celine, the room arranged for Miss Du is next to your room. If it is convenient for you, please go with Miss Du. I think you can talk more."Celine Dion nodded at once and said to Dewey, "you live next to me. We can discuss music together in the evening!"
