America 1919

In 1919, Donnie's soul traversed into the United States. To start off, Donnie, just a soldier who had recently stepped down from the battlefields of World War I, was framed by his superior. Before the Prohibition era began, he took over a bar in Atlantic City. With the perspective of a transmigrator and ruthless tactics, he gradually became the largest bootlegger in America. In the roaring twenties, Donnie delved into bootlegging, ran beauty pageants, built his career, and stormed Wall Street. Decades later, when people studied modern American history, they found that the name 'Donnie Block' was one they simply could not ignore!!!

Donnie took the red wine from Douglas's hands and passed it to Jessica Dole to let it breathe; he then sat down with the four of them on the sofa outside the villa.

"Mary, Douglas, I believe Charlie and David must have already discussed this with you two before, now I want to know, as for my acquisition of 20% of United Artists' shares for 700,000 US Dollars, you two shouldn't have any objections, should you?"

Donnie's stake in the company had already been discussed with Charlie Chaplin and Douglas, and the shareholding was the result of their negotiations.

With this 20% stake, Donnie would become the third largest shareholder of United Artists, only behind Charlie Chaplin and Griffith, owning more than Pickford and Douglas, but since now the four of them were united as one, Donnie's shares wouldn't actually play a decisive role in the company's operations.

"Donnie, we're already aware of this, and we have no objections to the decision!" Douglas said with a smile.
