Chapter 128

Through James Leibold's contacts, Simon soon learned that Lehman Brothers was about to reconcile with quantum fund.

In the past five months, the only "flaw" in the operation of westero's stock index futures was the sharp fall of the S & P 500 index on October 22.

Lehman Brothers accidentally leaked the news that it was about to sell a large number of quantum fund contracts. As a result, the S & P 500 index, which had just stabilized, collapsed again, and westero just cleared the last batch of short contracts within a few hours. This coincidence is indeed full of traces of human manipulation.

Now.

media pressure, secretly investigate, use wiretap, through questioning to increase psychological pressure, finally forced Lehman brothers to cooperate with entrapment Fishing law enforcement, repeatedly tossed for more than half a month, with Lehman brothers and Quantum Fund reconciliation news spread, we finally relieved.

As long as Lehman Brothers and quantum fund reach a settlement, the federal court for the Southern District of New York and other institutions will no longer be able to drag westero into the water through the investigation of this case. As for others, if the authorities are still reluctant, Simon doesn't mind spending tens of millions of dollars on a vigorous lawsuit.

In order to avoid unnecessary complications, it is obvious that all parties do not want to delay this matter for a long time.

So.

On November 23, Lehman Brothers and quantum fund quickly signed a settlement agreement.

It happened to be the same day.

Madonna has officially released her latest Remix album you can dance.

Unlike studio albums and live albums, mixed albums are usually a re composed version of a singer's previous albums. Of course, if you want the album to sell well, you can't have all the old songs. Madonna originally prepared a new song called "Spotlight" for this album. However, after Simon produced another song, Queen Mai decisively cut off the very mediocre "Spotlight" and replaced it with Simon's song.

The news that Simon will write songs for Madonna's new album spread a few months ago. During this period, due to the exposure of Simon's sudden becoming a millionaire, the publicity of Madonna's new album has hardly turned up much waves in front of this explosive news.

Confirming that Lehman Brothers is about to reconcile with quantum fund, Simon's public relations team has begun to cool down the hot media discussion that has lasted for more than half a month.

Immediately.

When Madonna's new album hit the shelves, many people's eyes were instantly attracted, because Simon came up with a song called "celebration".

Celebration: celebration.

Some guy made more than one billion dollars in just five months, and now he has evaded the investigation of the federal government agencies. It's just fitting to celebrate with a song called "celebration".

Most importantly, both ordinary fans and the North American media quickly agreed that "celebration" completely destroyed all the other songs in Madonna's Remix album.

In fact, "celebration" is a popular dance music with nostalgic style released by Queen Mai in 2009. Simon doesn't like queen McGregor's music, but "celebration" is one of his few favorite Madonna songs.

Although it's a song of 2009, the style, rhythm and content of this hit pop dance music are all in line with the album style of you can dance. Moreover, the quality of "celebration" songs is far better than Madonna's early best-selling singles such as "holiday".

With the strong popularity brought by "celebration", you can dance directly parachuted to the first place of billboard best-selling album in North America with 510000 first week album sales in the following week, and "celebration" also became the Billboard Hot single champion without any doubt.

As a stir fried cold rice mixed album, the industry originally estimated that the album could get about 5 million copies of sales in the world, which has been very successful. But now, according to the sales data of the first week of the album, only in North America, the sales volume of "you can dance" may reach 5 million, and the global total sales volume is almost destined to exceed 10 million.

When the first week's sales statistics came out, Madonna eagerly called Simon to invite him to the new album sales party held at her home on the upper west side of Manhattan. However, after spending Thanksgiving in New York, Simon returned to Los Angeles with the cast of when Harry meets Sally, which was successfully released recently, so he had to refuse the invitation of Queen Michael.

In all sorts of things, time is already the last month of 1987.

When Simon returned to Los Angeles, he devoted most of his energy to the post production of vulgar novel.

However.

Although it evaded the investigation of federal agencies, the chain reaction caused by the huge wealth of more than one billion dollars has not ended. Simon's biggest feeling during this period is that he has really become a "fat sheep".Since the news came to light in early November, Simon has been receiving donations from charities, public welfare organizations, university funds and so on.

Then, what makes Simon feel most helpless is that in a short period of one month, many men and women who claimed to be his parents jumped out to recognize their parents in North America, most of them with a serious appearance.

Federal media seems to be very keen on helping Simon find his family, which makes the situation more lively.

As for Los Angeles.

After the outbreak of the stock market crash, the prosperity of Hollywood in the past few years due to the economic boom has come to an abrupt end. Many second - and third tier film companies, which have already been in business difficulties due to massive expansion, will be completely unsustainable in the next few years. Even the seven major film companies will start to change hands one after another in the next few years.

So.

Simon, who suddenly has a fortune of more than one billion dollars, is a super fat sheep in the eyes of most people in Hollywood.

Since Simon's first day back in Los Angeles, there have been a lot of screenwriters, investors, and even those who want to sell the film company to him. Denise pictures' headquarters in Santa Monica are full of visitors. Simon himself can receive a lot of party invitation every day.

Of course.

Although a little boring, but the current state can not be regarded as no good.

Simon only got the right to adapt Forrest Gump and dance with the wolf when he searched for the copyright. The main reason is that his strength in Hollywood is too weak. Although he has the success of "Lola Run" and "Butterfly Effect", most of the writers and screenwriters will not easily give the copyright to Denise pictures.

Now.

Simon suddenly had a fortune of more than one billion dollars, and the situation immediately changed completely.

In an era when the average production cost of a movie is only over $10 million, Simon's wealth of more than $1 billion is enough to make any movie that interests him.
