"What do you mean, Donnie?" Harold Vanderbilt asked Donnie.
Donnie said, "I just discussed this with Walker. Venus Bank is planning to join forces with the Astor Family to create a luxury hotel brand based on the current Ritz Hotel, and we have already decided to pilot this in four cities: New York, Los Angeles, San Francisco, and Seattle. If you are interested, you can invest with a certain amount of funds or with the Vanderbilt Hotel in New York."
"We are in the era of youth. If the brand succeeds, it will be a century-old brand. By then, you will have relieved yourself of the tedious work and will be able to receive annual dividends, ensuring a luxurious life for you and your descendants."
Donnie's invitation to the Vanderbilt Family to join the partnership with Walker was not an impromptu idea, but one that had been in the works for some time.
