The couple are tired of talking together. The setting sun gradually sinks into the horizon and the sky darkens unconsciously.
Dada's high-heeled shoes sound, in the empty hall appears crisp and pleasant.
Since learning that wearing high-heeled shoes often may lead to toe deformation and Simon likes natural feet, Janet seldom wears high-heeled shoes outside of formal social occasions. Even when she works, she often wears a pair of white flat sneakers like a little girl.
However, Simon really likes the crisp sound of high heels trampling on the ground.
Looking around, it was Alice Ferguson, the housekeeper.
Since we have to move, the seven person team led by the four women of ABCD and the housekeeper has been staying here in recent days, responsible for the comprehensive cleaning of the interior of the shell villa and the belongings of all the rooms.
Usually, a 120 square meter apartment can be divided into seven or eight rooms. The three floors of shell villa have a total internal space of 12000 square meters, which is 100 times that of an ordinary apartment. You can imagine how big the interior is.
Except for the hall of about 2000 square meters and the 3000 square meters of space on the first floor of the basement separated from the wine cellar, garage, vault and studio, other areas still have 7000 square meters.
The remaining 3000 square meters of space outside the first floor hall is divided into kitchen, bar, study, bathroom, meeting room, living room, reception hall, gym, library, storage room, private projection hall and other areas, among which there is more than one kitchen, bar, bathroom and so on.
The second floor of the villa also has 3000 square meters of space, but there are six suites with separate living room, study, bedroom and bathroom, each covering an area of more than 200 square meters. The rest of the separate bedroom, study, living room, cloakroom, storage room, home theater and so on.
The streamlined third floor is mainly a flying saucer shaped master bedroom, but this one is more than 300 square meters.
The master bedroom is located on the easternmost side of the third floor of the villa. To the west of the master bedroom, there are some rooms such as study room, bathroom and cloakroom. Janet has specially arranged two baby rooms these days.
It is difficult to calculate how many rooms there are in this villa because there are often rooms in the room and many open half compartments. However, according to the usual Western residential calculation, there are only 11 bedrooms and 19 bathrooms in the villa.
As you can imagine, the ABCD four girls and the housekeeper seven together, although there are 11 people, it is absolutely not easy to manage this single villa. It's even more difficult to balance Simon's properties across North America.
Simon doesn't allow anyone else to take care of his property, so the housekeeper has recently been talking to Janet about hiring more people.
Next to the glass curtain wall, when Simon turns his head, Janet turns around and lies lazily on the back of the sofa.
As they watched together, Alice kept her face unchanged and whispered, "Sir, madam, do you want to prepare dinner?"
Janet's chin was on the back of the sofa and her eyes were shining.
Simon said: "yes, in addition, first call everyone to come, all the lights in the villa are on."
Alice nodded and clattered away again in her high heels.
Janet didn't move her upper body, but her little foot in her white flat shoes kicked Simon's leg rhythmically with the clatter, joking: "if I had a hard sole on my shoes, it would make a sound."
Simon pressed the woman's restless calf and said with a smile, "nail a horseshoe, and the sound will be louder."
Janet came over with a wink, swung her calf and kicked Simon again.
A few minutes later, all the lights in the shell villa come on together. The terrain of domay is very high, and most of Malibu can see the fantastic lights in the sharp corner of the city.
In the villa, 11 tall women with golden hair, white skin and excellent body temperament soon appeared in front of Simon. The unified black ol suit was extremely pleasing to the eye.
If it is unknown, this group of girls must belong to the elite level of the workplace. No one can guess that they are just maids of the westrow family.
In fact, the 11 women with the salary of vice president level of the enterprise are indeed the elites in the workplace.
It's not just the annual salary of 200000 US dollars and the bonus after the five-year contract. Simon is responsible for all the expenses of the girls' daily diet, accommodation, clothing, fitness and medical treatment, which are no less than their salaries. In order to facilitate the housekeeper to lead the team to take care of the property, Simon also specially allocated a Gulfstream IV private plane for them.
Frankly speaking, Simon is raising vases.
It's another hobby besides buying a house.
I don't pursue any return, and I don't have many physical demands, just hobbies. After making so much money, I can do whatever I want. It's interesting to think about how to raise a group of high-level vases that are so exquisite that many men and women are ashamed of themselves.He did not hide the fact that he was enjoying the beautiful scene in front of him. Simon finally looked at C girl Claire and asked, "C, what do you want to do in the future?"
Claire felt that a lot of other eyes were looking at him, but he just looked at his boss and said, "start a company and be your own boss. I haven't figured out exactly what to do. "
Simon nodded, then turned to the other girls, looking at them expectantly.
Looking at it again, Simon said, "well, I'm going to set up a venture fund. Well, it's called" vase fund ". What do you think?"
The meaning of the name is too obvious, a girl Alison quickly said: "boss, is it for us?"
"Of course," Simon nodded, "everyone is 10 million dollars, whatever you do, fashion, technology, real estate, finance, etc. even if you want to make a movie, it's OK. I can just give you some advice. If you think it's hard to do it alone, you can cooperate with each other. Well, I suggest that you work together. Two people will have $20 million, and 11 people will have $110 million. However, each person only has a share of $10 million. If you lose it, you will not have a second chance. "
The girls confirmed that Simon was not joking, and immediately couldn't help looking at each other with eager faces.
Ten million dollars, which is nothing for Simon now, but enough to satisfy the ambition of too many people to climb up.
A moment later, a girl on the housekeeper's side boldly said, "boss, can you give us some advice?"
Simon looked over, thought of Zoe parks, nodded and said with a smile, "of course, in addition to your cooperation with each other, I suggest you invest in emerging new technologies, such as the Internet. I believe we are in an era similar to that of the electrical revolution a hundred years ago, when Morgan, Rockefeller and Carnegie appeared. Similarly, in this rapidly rising information age, there will certainly be such a group of people, perhaps you are one of them. "
On the other side of the housekeeper, another girl said with a little diffidence, "how can we be women?"
Simon felt this almost coquettish tone, looked at it with a smile, and said, "how about your $10 million?"
The girl quickly shook her head, feeling that the reaction was wrong, and then nodded, feeling that it was still wrong, so she had to look at Simon pitifully.
"Well, I'm just kidding," Simon said. "For the time being, I don't care what to do. You can discuss it yourself. I'll try to only pay for it. Now, go on with what you just did, ABCD. You're in charge of dinner. "
The girls whispered and scattered.
Alice stayed where she was and waited for the others to leave. The housekeeper looked at Simon and said, "boss, do I have 10 million dollars, too?"
Simon said: "of course, but it doesn't hinder your original plan. It depends on your own choice how to do it in the future."
Alice shook her head slightly and said, "I mean, ten million dollars is a little less for me."
Simon, with a look of great interest, asked, "do you already have an idea?"
The housekeeper nodded and said, "I've seen the information you gave me, e-commerce. I think it's a very promising plan."
Simon's face is a little queer.
In the original plans, Simon hoped that Jeff Bezos, who is now in charge of igritte's network business, could turn to e-commerce again in the future. If the housekeeper is really good enough, he hoped that she could become Bezos's successor.
Now it seems that the plan will probably never catch up with the change.
Simon opened a lot of information about new technology industry to housekeeper according to the original agreement these days. Unexpectedly, she discovered the prospect of e-commerce industry so soon.
After thinking about it, Simon said, "there is only $10 million in the vase fund for you, but as long as you do well enough, money is certainly not a problem."
Janet, who is sitting next to Simon quietly, said with a smile: "cersei capital can also invest in you as much as you want."
"In fact, it's still a little early to do e-commerce. In another year or two, when the number of users of the World Wide Web reaches millions or even tens of millions, it's the most appropriate time to enter the market. Now that you have an idea, you can rely on the igritte portal to test the water on a small scale, such as focusing on selling books or electronic products online in California or New York state. " Simon said this, then put away his expression, said: "of course, the most important thing now is to do your own job."
Alice listened to Simon carefully, nodded and said, "well, I'll help prepare dinner, too."
"Go ahead. Besides, you can choose a bedroom in the villa and stay here tonight."
Alice, who was about to turn around, stopped and nodded.
When the housekeeper walked away, Janet pretended to be dissatisfied and said, "keep her. Are you going to attack tonight?"Simon pecked at the woman's angry red lips and joked, "here you are."
Janet's eyelashes flickered and understood, saying, "I'm not lace, but maybe we can work together."
"Well, it's too bullying, isn't it?"
"Maids are used to bully."
Simon showed a look of disgust: "I can't believe you are such a woman. Stay away from me, the evil capitalist."
Janet pounced on Simon, wrapped her arms around him and laughed for a while. Then she said, "why set up a vase fund? Is it not good for them to be real vases?"
Simon put his arm around Janet's waist and said, "it's still a vase, of course, but I want to make even the vases of the Westeros look up to a lot of people. If you think about it, in the future, a large number of female billionaires who came from the vistrows' maids will even reach the level of being on the Forbes list. Isn't that interesting? "
"Do you think they can do that?"
"I give them the best conditions to start a business. As long as they work hard, it's easy for them to make some achievements. They are all chosen by you, and none of them is just a vase with a pair of leather bags? "
"Yes, they're all ambitious, and there are people who want to take my place," Janet nodded with a smile, then joked, "but aren't you afraid that you'll end up taking advantage of other men?"
"I'm not afraid. All this money is investment. If I do it well, I can get a return," Simon said, shaking his head. "Besides, there are few" other men "in the world that I care about."
"It's true," Jeanette said, raising her voice. "Someone seems to like other men's women."
"Well, that's slander."
"Hum."
"What does' hem 'mean?"
"You know it."
As expected, the first lighting scene of the shell villa in domay point manor appeared in many newspapers the next day. Naturally, there was another criticism, accusing Simon westero of living extravagantly. The power consumption of a villa was hundreds of times that of an ordinary family.
Simon naturally does not care about these, he is to let the world gradually get used to their more and more exposed edge.
With regard to the "vase fund", Janet finally happily took over the matter and planned to attach the fund to cersei capital. Naturally, Simon had no opinion. Doing so would make the fund more formal.
After a short weekend break and working day, Simon first ushered in a lawsuit.
Hollywood's three major trade unions, the American actors' Union, the American writers' Union and the American directors' Union, filed a lawsuit with the federal court of Delaware, where MCA and Denise entertainment are registered. They demanded that Denise Entertainment's acquisition of MCA be prohibited on the ground that its merger would lead to monopoly and worsen the working environment of media workers Buy.
The three major trade unions are obviously well prepared. They have not only hired the most famous team of anti merger lawyers in the United States, but also collected a lot of human and material evidence.
Among them, the serious overtime phenomenon inside dannilis entertainment enterprise has become one of the important basis of the lawsuit of the three major trade unions. Members of the three trade unions have come forward to testify that dannilis entertainment had to endure long hours of overtime during her work.
In addition, the three major trade unions also believe that once daenerys entertainment and MCA merge, the films produced by the company will directly or indirectly occupy about 40% of the box office share in the United States, reaching US $2 billion, which has constituted a suspected monopoly. Denise entertainment will also make use of its own industry advantages to further reduce the salary of employees in the industry.
This accusation is also full of human and material evidence.
At the same time, many media also launched a public opinion offensive to danielis entertainment.
Many people have a hunch that in order to stop the expansion of danielis entertainment, Simon westrow is likely to face a lawsuit bombing. There are many precedents for this kind of thing in the West. Many mergers and acquisitions of enterprises often fail under the pressure of litigation and public opinion.
