Chapter 141: Chapter 141 The Pursuit Of Freedom In America
The pursuit of freedom is one of the foundational theories of this country. Beautiful photos are art and elegance. If you think it's pornographic, it's your dirty mind.
This article immediately attracted more attacks from conservatives, who published articles in newspapers either criticizing or cursing.
Seeing these articles, Hefner just smiled lightly. When he first saw the criticisms, he was a bit worried, but after the boss's guidance, he was no longer concerned about these people.
If you write articles criticizing me, I will also publish articles stating my position.
Let's abide by the law. America has freedom of speech.
We support women gaining greater independence and rights.
We support the liberation of thought.
From these points, in this country, we can always stand undefeated and even pose as righteous defenders of the people's future.
Philosophers, are not afraid of verbal fights.
Dare to argue with you until the end of time.
Although criticized, it is not necessarily a bad thing for Playboy magazine. Their comments are like advertisements, making more people aware of Playboy.
You call it pornographic and lascivious,
Shout about banning it. Well, I must check it out.
Amid the heated discussions, Playboy magazine's sales not only did not drop but increased, leading to another sales peak.
The additional 50,000 copies sold out again, and many bookstores demanded more. Hardy asked Hefner to print another 50,000 copies.
Due to the skyrocketing sales,
Playboy's stock price rose again, exceeding $6 per share.
Regardless of everything else, Hardy made a fortune.
By December 11, the toy factory brought more good news: 30,000 sets of Barbie dolls had been made and were ready for sale.
The person in charge of the toy factory, Handler, brought several sets of toys to Hardy.
"Boss, the single princess Barbie gift box costs $10.8 each."
"There is also a combination gift box of three princesses, costing $26.5 per set."
Hardy picked up the gift box, the clothing accessories were particularly beautiful.
"What are the costs and profits?" Hardy asked.
"The cost of the single gift box is about $3.5, selling for $10.8. The cost of the combination gift box is about $10, selling for $26.5."
"Profits are about two to three times."
Hardy was quite satisfied with the profit, nodded and said, "Christmas is coming soon, let's start selling it tomorrow, and try to sell it well before Christmas."
"Contact major department stores and set up special counters to sell these Barbie dolls. Barbie dolls are luxury items and cannot be placed in small shops or general stores."
Luxury items should look like luxury items, sold in high end places, and must have independent counters in the best malls of major cities.
"Okay, boss, we have already contacted major malls and can stock them immediately. Sales can begin in up to five days," said the toy factory manager.
"By the way, send me five sets of each. I promised to give them to some friends." Hardy remembered his promise to Ava, Taylor, and Elena.
"Okay, boss."
Hardy returned to Ava's house.
Ava had also been busy recently. HD Films had established an independent record company, and the first album produced by the record company was Ava's.
When Ava returned, She immediately saw the doll box on the table.
She saw a doll that looked very much like her, the Barbie doll Princess Ava she had seen in the newspaper.
"Wow~ so beautiful."
Ava ran over, holding the box, admiring the doll and the beautiful outfits.
Next to it was a larger box with three dolls and 12 sets of exquisite accessory boxes.
Ava loved each one.
There is no girl who doesn't like Barbie dolls, whether it's a 3 year old child or a 30 year old woman.
Ava hugged the box looking for Hardy, but he wasn't in the room. However, she heard water running and smiled, put down the doll, and walked into the bathroom.
The next day. Hardy went to the post office to send a complete set of Barbie dolls, with a special card.
"Taylor, Merry Christmas. This is your Christmas gift. I promised to visit you in New York, but I'm afraid I'll have to break my promise."
"During the Christmas season, I have a very important company opening event, and the time conflicts, so I may not make it to New York. Don't be mad, I'll make it up to you when I return."
After over a year and spending more than $7 million, the Flamingo Casino was finally about to open. Hardy didn't know how Sigel had managed, just hoping he wasn't as rushed as in his previous life.
As for breaking promises to girls.
Hardy had always been rational.
When it comes to women, never spoil them too much, or the consequences can be terrible. If you satisfy them every time, they will only want more.
They will gradually become spoiled children and spoiled children will not love others; they will only love themselves. And if you fail to satisfy them just once, they will think you are not as good as before.
Hardy drove to the auction house. Elena and Irina were there. "Hi, two beauties, good morning."
"Elena, here is the 'The noble princess' I promised to give you." Hardy took out a princess doll box.
"Wow~~ so beautiful." Before Elena could say anything, Irina exclaimed.
Elena accepted the box, touching the doll, reluctant to let go. "It's so exquisite such a doll must be expensive."
"$10.8 each, with accessory sets"
Irina gasped "So expensive!"
However, Honestly, the doll is too beautiful.
If she had the money, she would also buy a set.
Looking at the princess doll that resembled Elena, Irina was extremely envious. If only she had a set of Barbie dolls named after her.
Princess Irina, What a beautiful name.
How can she get the boss to design a set of dolls for her too?
...
The convoy drove on the highway towards Las Vegas, with Richard sitting in the passenger seat, Hardy and Ava in the back.
In the car behind, there were four elite security company members.
Today was December 23rd.
Flamingo Casino was scheduled to open tomorrow, which was Christmas Eve. Siegel's idea was to celebrate the casino's opening with a grand party on Christmas Eve, where people would revel and gamble.
