Chapter 287: Chapter 288 Hardy Group Future Framework During the New Year period, Hardy was also very busy. In the blink of an eye, it was 1948. Hardy had been in this world for three years. On January 8, Hardy formally applied to the Las Vegas city government to establish the ’Hardy Group’ in Las Vegas. The Las Vegas government welcomed the establishment of the Hardy Group. Every place hopes for development, not just for tax revenue. Sometimes a major company can stimulate the economy of an entire area. A few days later. The Hardy Group held a grand event at the Hardy Hotel to celebrate the establishment of the company. ABC Television and Las Vegas Television broadcasted the event live. Almost all the city government officials attended. A state senator from Nevada also came to congratulate. This senator was a friend of the mayor. Last year, he brought his family to Las Vegas for vacation, and the Hardy Hotel provided free accommodation, leading to a friendship between Hardy and the senator. At the event, the mayor spoke, stating that the Hardy Group’s presence in Las Vegas would bring more vitality to the city and that its development would reach new heights. Hardy then announced that the Hardy Group would invest $200 million to build two large hotels in Las Vegas, transforming it into a true tourism and entertainment capital upon completion. These two comprehensive buildings would be named "Caesars Palace Hotel" and "Venetian Hotel," combining shopping, entertainment, gambling, accommodation, tourism, and international conferences. The construction was expected to take two years. Additionally, the Hardy Group would invest in building the ’Hardy Group Tower,’ expected to be a 70 stories tall, reaching approximately 230 meters in height. The group would also construct a hospital covering several dozen acres to improve the overall healthcare level of the city, and establish the first university in Las Vegas. They had already negotiated with the University of Nevada, and Las Vegas University would become a branch of the University of Nevada. ... Now that the Hardy Group Company is established. The first task is to build two casino hotels, "Caesars Palace Hotel" and "The Venetian Hotel." Previously, design bidding was conducted, involving the best design companies in the United States, and now the designs have been approved by the shareholders. Caesars Palace mimics Roman architecture, grand and majestic, with luxurious interiors and many Roman sculptures. There is a large fountain outside, modeled after Rome’s Trevi Fountain. The Trevi Fountain, also known as the Fountain of Youth or the ’Wishing Pool,’ is a Baroque architectural masterpiece, the largest and most famous fountain in Rome, and a symbol of the city. "Roman Holiday" was filmed there. The "Venetian Hotel" mimics the water city of Venice, similar to the PPT images Hardy used to impress the mob families earlier. The construction of these two casinos will be handled by Metropolis Real Estate Development Company for Caesars Palace and another large construction company for The Venetian Hotel. Both casinos will start construction simultaneously. At the same time, the Hardy Group headquarters, ’Hardy Group Tower’ will also begin construction, again handled by Metropolis Real Estate. The building’s design, proposed by Hardy, features a circular base and a square middle section. It essentially represents a coin, symbolizing wealth. Hardy’s dreams are quite materialistic. The temporary headquarters is in Los Angeles, and after the Hardy Building is completed, it will move to Las Vegas, with the Los Angeles building becoming a branch office. Hardy Group Headquarters. Chairman’s Office. Hardy called Andy in. "Andy, I think it’s necessary for the Hardy Group to develop a future plan. What do you think?" Having a goal provides direction, and with direction comes motivation. From nations to individuals, everyone should make future plans to avoid aimlessness. "Boss, we are on the same page. I have been working on a plan recently, but I need your input on some aspects since they involve the future direction of the Hardy Group," Andy said. "I have some ideas too. Let’s discuss the future framework today," Hardy replied. In Hardy’s vision, the Hardy Group will have several main industries, with the media industry being the top priority. Currently, Hardy Group’s media industry includes ABC Broadcasting Company, HD Film Company, Global Times, Playboy Magazine, ABC Radio, HD Records Company, and HD Talent Agency, forming a complete industry chain. Andy wasn’t surprised that Hardy prioritized the media industry because Hardy had previously explained the power structure to him. Power in this world can be divided into military, political, economic, cultural, and public opinion power, with diplomatic power as the last one. The media industry controls public opinion. And controlling public opinion makes many politicians fear you, and it can also be a profitable tool. "My plan is to continue expanding the number of ABC TV stations. Although we claim nationwide coverage, remote areas are still uncovered. We currently have 118 stations, aiming to exceed 200 in five years." "We should explore international markets, like setting up radio and TV stations in neighboring Canada and Mexico. We could also establish stations in places like the U.K and Japan, broadcasting recorded programs if live broadcasting isn’t possible." "Global Times should continue to receive support to achieve global coverage within two years, ensuring a channel for disseminating information even in weaker areas." "Playboy Magazine is too niche, we need a new magazine with broader appeal, similar to Reader’s Digest, called ’Reader’ or ’Youth Digest.’ It shouldn’t aim for high prices, similar to Reader’s Digest at 30 cents per issue, focusing on expanding readership." "As for the film company, we should focus on quality over quantity, putting more effort into TV series and variety shows. I foresee the record industry growing way beyond our previous estimation, so we should invest more in the record company, selecting and nurturing new talents into stars." Finally, Hardy remembered something and asked Andy, "Do you know about the ’Paramount Decree’?" "Are you referring to the Supreme Court’s antitrust ruling against the big eight film companies, which was suspended?" Andy asked, surprised. ...
