Chapter 1744

~10 min read 1,896 words

The plan Bruce formulated was very simple: dress up as rich people to deceive rich people, and finally become truly rich people.

This cannot even be called dressing up, nor can it be called deception. First of all, Bruce and Oliver were originally two of the world's few big tycoons. It is not because they lost their assets in this world that those pasts as tycoons were all wiped out.

Both of them were people who had received elite education from big families and were very clear about how the upper class operates. Those etiquettes that are very mysterious and cumbersome to ordinary people are more ordinary than eating and drinking in their eyes. They don't even need to dress up; just be themselves.

Diana is an art worker. She has research in directions such as art appreciation, cultural history, and religious theology. At the same time, because she has lived long enough and has seen too many people, no matter what kind of person and what kind of situation she faces, she can remain calm. The most important thing for a swindler is psychological quality.

Clark and Arthur are both small-town youths. Their knowledge cannot compare with the aforementioned few, but they have one advantage, which is that they are very handsome.

Let's put it this way: Clark says at a local banquet that he is a small actor from Hollywood, and Mexicans who yearn for the United States would have to complain that Hollywood has no eye for talent.

Humans are all appearance-oriented animals, and they are more willing to listen to people who look good. Being a vase at a banquet is not without benefits. Everyone is busy admiring your appearance and doesn't care about your inner self. Even if you say the wrong thing, people will only think you are stupid but truly beautiful. The point is beautiful.

Looking at it this way, Hal doesn't have any prominent traits to be a swindler, but he also has a trait not well known to the public: Hal is actually a playboy, and being Green Lantern didn't delay him from picking up girls.

Some people might say Bruce Wayne is even more of a playboy, and Oliver's love history must not be few, but don't forget, both of them are big tycoons. Most of the time, they don't need to take the initiative to pick up girls; it's the women around them who hold them up.

Looking at it this way, Hal's success rate is bizarrely high. After all, he is not the richest man, nor is he handsome to the point of being breathtaking. High emotional intelligence and a unique sense of humor are the magic weapons for victory.

In general, everyone in this team has a high level of knowledge, and their personalities are also quite likable. It is very simple for them to unite and mix into the upper circle, and it is not difficult to gain a firm foothold there.

Another thing is that they are all Americans, and Mexico's upper class will look at Americans differently. If you have some wealth, fame, and status in the United States, local rich businessmen who come to knock on the door to visit even need to queue.

Note that Mexico is actually not poor; it is only the ordinary people who have a hard time. Their golden age has not passed for too long, and there are still quite a few rich people in the upper class.

This is actually a reverse application of the theory of crime-industry-pillar regions. Just as Bruce said, Mexico has a bunch of idiots who caught the era's tailwind and made a lot of money but feel they have the ability. They can't wait to show their skills on the international stage, feeling that with their own ability, they can have money that can't be spent for several lifetimes by investing casually.

Furthermore, most of them are related to the crime industry, and money comes quickly and easily, so naturally, they don't know how to cherish it. Some people just turned over from the bottom to become masters and can't wait to let the whole world know they are proud. They spend money more generously than anyone else, squandering money with a retaliatory psychology.

There is another type of person who is an official or party member who received black money. Their money is also not small, but because the source is not right, they dare not speak out. They also want to secretly set up assets abroad, but they are worried that the matter of investing a large amount of money will spread and affect their official career, so they can only do it secretly, and they can only swallow the loss.

Looking back at history, people will always marvel at how so many bizarre swindlers could be produced in this era?! Standing from the perspective of an onlooker, one would also question whether these people have no brains and why they would be deceived by such bizarre scams?

But facts have proven that every generation has its own fat sheep. In this era of rapid economic take-off and rapid decline, too many people have obtained wealth beyond their vision, and in the end, these will flow back into the hands of those who should get them.

In short, countries around the world are now in a state where there are too many fools and not enough swindlers.

After Bruce detailed his plan, the others were amazed and expressed one after another that Bruce, this excellent graduate, is truly full of gold content, learned very well, don't learn next time.

But this is indeed the best way to solve the current predicament, so Bruce's team turned into a gang overnight.

It is a bit wasteful for so many people to set up a layout, so they specialize in different fields according to their respective image and temperament positioning.

First are Clark and Arthur, who are relatively handsome. Clark doesn't need to be said much; he is the type of handsome guy that people all over the world like, the chosen one. Walking on the streets of any country, he will receive a series of exclamations.

And Arthur's appearance is quite popular in the South American region because the aesthetics here care more about sexiness than pure handsomeness, especially for men. Many Latino handsome guys have a wild sexy temperament, and Arthur perfectly fits the aesthetics of people here.

Arthur grew up in a small seaside town. Because he fished by the sea all year round, his skin was tanned dark, a head of wild long hair draped behind his head, solid muscles and slightly rough skin made him full of the robustness of a manual laborer. After putting on a suit, he was simply like a wild beast trapped in a cage. Once he appeared in the social circle of Guadalajara, he received a basket of invitations from noble ladies.

And Oliver is that kind of very typical rich white man. The skin tanned in Mexico is also not discordant. For a long time, dark-skinned white people in the United States were the symbol of rich people because only those with money and leisure had time to go to the beach to sunbathe. Bronze skin is the symbol of old money.

Clark and Arthur's appearance successfully opened up the situation for them. Now the locals in Guadalajara all know that a rich businessman who wants to invest in Mexico has come here. He comes from the US West Coast, knows quite a few producers and investors in Hollywood, and also brought two actors they made popular.

Immediately following is the appearance of the main owner. Oliver plays a rich man who came to investigate the investment environment.

Oliver performed very proficiently in business and did not idle for the few days he came here, investigating greenfield investments, palm oil factories, cross-border trade company headquarters, etc., respectively. From his attire to his itinerary, he was very low-key.

Soon both sides got to know a group of people. Most of the people Oliver knew were some local rich businessmen and some government officials who wanted to pull investment. The people Bruce knew were some rich second generations and rich third generations, but their parents' level was higher than that of local businessmen, and many were figures in Mexican politics.

Clark and Arthur successfully mixed into the local entertainment industry, and many Mexican actors wanted to get some information about Hollywood investors from their mouths.

When the whole situation progressed to here, it reached the most difficult step, which is that they must take out some real things, but this is for ordinary swindlers.

Still that sentence, Bruce's gang is actually not deceiving; everything they say is true.

For example, when Oliver went to play golf with local rich businessmen on the weekend, he chatted about the investment environment in South America inadvertently, expressed his own views on the trade between the United States and Latin America, and even talked about his own previous several wrong investments being biased. Local businessmen all listened with fascination and never doubted the truth or falsehood.

Why is this? Is it because they are too stupid? Actually, not at all, because what Oliver said was true.

Even if he was a rich second generation who didn't learn anything before being stranded on a desert island, the money his family used to cultivate him and let him practice was in the hundreds of millions. He casually revealed some previous investment experiences, which was enough to make these city-level rich businessmen marvel at the big hand.

Diana mixed in the circle of socialites. This is her old line of work. In the past, when she was the Amazon princess, her main job was to mix in the upper circle, letting people know more about the Amazon and the Amazon's tourism industry.

This is also the reason why she chose to be an art worker because these rich and leisurely socialites have the theme of buying, buying, buying all over the world every day. Luxury goods, famous paintings, antiques, modern art, as long as they can highlight their wealth and taste, they are all included in the bag.

After all, Diana has lived for so many years. Even if she used half of the time of ordinary humans to learn these things, it is much longer than the time ordinary art workers study. So no matter whether it is appreciation or recommendation, she has her own views, and soon she became famous in the whole circle.

At this time, Mexico is still dominated by the left wing, but very embarrassingly, the prestige of the Institutional Revolutionary Party has been shaken too severely, and in the general election a year later, they have many powerful competitors.

The party that has ruled Mexico for so many years is naturally unwilling to hand over power. They tried hard to fight for support all over the world, but unfortunately, their biggest competitors, those liberals, were supported by their powerful neighbor, the United States. Originally, they felt there was no hope themselves.

But just one day, when Oliver was at a gathering of local political figures in Guadalajara, he inadvertently revealed that he had met a certain high-level official of the Soviet Union, which successfully attracted the attention of a politician.
