The Tyrant Billionaire

That night, Hardy stayed in Irina's room.

Yes, Irina's room.

When the casino opened, the women came to Las Vegas and each chose a room. These rooms would remain theirs, their exclusive spaces when they visited, with furniture and decorations they could customize.

If the women left any personal items, like favorite dolls, pillows, or mattresses, the butler would keep them untouched.

Irina had been staying in her room at the manor these past few days, feeling like one of Hardy's wives.

One of his wives?! Irina felt herself slipping.

The next day, Andy returned to Los Angeles to oversee the establishment of Hardy Group, with a massive workload making him the busiest.

Hardy stayed behind to supervise the TV station setup. Any shortages in personnel or materials were quickly resolved with a call to Los Angeles.

Finally, after twenty days, the Las Vegas TV station was completed. They had a trial run the day before, and today was the official launch, connecting to the national TV network. Hardy personally pressed the start button.

The Las Vegas TV station logo appeared, followed by a scenic shot of Las Vegas and its vibrant nightlife.

Bright lights and neon signs adorned the casinos.

The camera moved to Hardy's hotel, showcasing the luxurious casino, lively scenes, and people celebrating their winnings.

A voice over announced, "Las Vegas, the entertainment capital, the city that never sleeps. Welcome to Las Vegas."

Then the host, Colin, appeared, smiling at the camera. "From now on, I'll take you on an in depth tour of Las Vegas. Where should we go first?"

Colin chuckled.

"How about a strip show? Interested? Follow me." He led the way with the camera following.

This type of program was new to TV, making viewers feel like they were traveling along.

Passing through a pink corridor, they arrived at a hall where dozens of spectators were seated. As the music started, a beautiful, scantily clad dancer took the stage, showcasing her perfect body.

Of course, the woman was clothed, though a bit revealing, but within TV broadcasting limits.

Colin picked up a colorful flyer and said, "Have you seen this flyer? It has photos of all the dancers, their heights, weights, measurements, and names. The one on stage now is called 'Night Flower Jenny' of Las Vegas."

The camera returned to the stage.

After watching several performances, Colin checked the time and suddenly exclaimed, "Oh, it's almost draw time! I need to place a bet. If I win, I'll be rich."

The camera followed Colin hurriedly to the casino's betting counter.

The TV channel's first day's programming included a gambling program, providing timely information on casino games, drawing times, and expert opinions on betting strategies.

And the most anticipated segment was the live draw.

After the host placed his bet, the screen switched to the casino draw area. The screen showed the table, roulette wheel, and other equipment, with several guests sitting at the table.

Each time a guest rolled the dice or spun the wheel, the audience felt the suspense.

This was a new experience for viewers, as they could now watch the entire draw process live on TV, feeling the tension and excitement in real time.

As the draw concluded, the results were displayed on the screen. The program announced the winners and their prizes, showcasing the casino's transparency and fairness.

The Las Vegas TV station's first day was a hit, drawing viewers from all over the country. People were fascinated by the new content and the innovative approach to broadcasting.

Hardy knew he had a successful venture on his hands and was ready for the next steps.

Las Vegas TV has gone live, becoming the fourth channel in the United States to cover the entire nation. Hardy had advertised it in newspapers and on ABC, so many people were curious about the Las Vegas channel.

When the broadcast started, people tuned in to see what kind of shows this channel would air, prepared to switch back to ABC if it wasn't interesting.

The first program on Las Vegas TV stunned many viewers: the host took the audience to watch a strip show.

What!?

This is so damn exciting!

People originally planned to just take a peek and switch channels, but they were instantly captivated by the performance, especially the male viewers.

We're not being perverted, just purely appreciating it.

After all, many had never been to such places and were extremely curious. Now that they finally had the chance to explore, how could they miss it?

This is what you call a "bombshell opening."

First, they hook the audience with an exciting show, and even if the rest of the content is mediocre, the viewers would accept it, anticipating more thrilling segments to come.

Next was a lottery show.

What is most attractive to people?

After satisfying their basic needs, people are most drawn to money, beauty, and power.

The strip show covered beauty, and the lottery covered money. Watching others place bets, seeing the draw, and witnessing the winners joyfully collect their prizes with thick wads of cash deeply stimulated the audience. Many thought, "If only I could win."

At this moment, many people had already decided they wanted to visit Hardy's Hotel in Las Vegas.

The host continued to explain the lottery rules, showing the viewers a prize wall filled with photos of winners, each smiling with their cash prizes.

The host said, "Before Las Vegas TV started broadcasting, Hardy's Hotel had already held over 200 major lottery draws. All the photos on this wall are of winners. The highest prize here was $17,686, and the lowest was over $7,000."

"The best part of this game is that there's always a winner each round. The draw is open and transparent. One person wins the grand prize, and with just $2, you have a chance to get rich."

"Besides introducing the entertainment here, Las Vegas TV will broadcast every draw live, so everyone can experience the excitement."

Many people thought, Is this fun? It's torture.

Watching but not participating.

It would be better not to know.

Many people further resolved that they must visit Las Vegas, and many in Los Angeles were already considering making a trip to Las Vegas a near term goal.
