American Fortune Life

With more and more companies under his umbrella, Andy now spends more time reading briefings every day, and sometimes he has to pick up the phone to ask the parties directly when he sees the contents of some briefings.

This management model has freed up his own time to a large extent, but it still takes about two hours to finish processing, which has become the norm. Of course, it's incomparable to workaholics like Apple's Tim Cook, who wakes up at 4:30 in the morning to read briefings, and who works 100 hours a week like the CEO of General Electric.

"The scariest thing in this world is that people who are richer than you work harder than you!"

Well, this is true, but in Andy's view, busyness cannot be equated with hard work or hard work. Being busy must be based on a strategic vision and a platform, otherwise it can only be "poor and busy" and fall into the vicious cycle of getting busier and poorer-the poorer and busier. And Andy has a pair of eyes that can see through the future. Strategy is his greatest reliance, but doing everything by himself will become a nightmare instead.

A successful person also needs to have one thing, that is, self-knowledge.

Whether Andy is busy or not is a matter of opinion. Some would say that he wasn't busy at all, because the only thing he did all day was read briefings. What's more, he thinks that he spends most of his time with women. . .

Well, if you have to say that, Andy has no choice but to say with a sneer: "I don't need to stay up late to become a billionaire, but if you work hard to stay up late, you will only get dark circles under your eyes. "

Andy, who was not busy, sorted out the briefing, opened the drawer and put it away, then shook the mouse with his hand, opened his e-mail, found the script sent to him by Christopher Nolan, downloaded it, and began to read it.

For Nolan's adaptation of "Inception", Andy basically read ten lines at a glance and wrote it all by himself. Naturally, the adaptation will not be difficult. Of course, for Nolan with a personality, many of the hallucinations Andy described As Nolan's signature style, he is still used to let the entire creative team try to create real scenes as much as possible, and avoid excessive use of CGI technology.

Insisting on using a camera to shoot movies, the computer is basically worthless to him. This kind of operation method is simply unbelievable in Hollywood. This is why the "Inception" I saw in my previous life always seemed to feel the impact of the picture I feel a little unsatisfied.

Of course, this time Andy will never let Nolan give up the 3D version to collect money. Warner's Richard will also not give up the 3D version. Under Andy's guidance more than once, Richard and Nolan have already I went to visit the truck driver who was silently playing with the blue giant at home, and after watching a short 3D effect of Avatar, they were all brought into a new visual world by Cameron.

In this case, the magical scene described by Andy in Inception is even more valuable.

Immersive, the visual impact on the audience will be greater, the box office will be higher, and no one can live with money.

But to shoot Inception can only wait until next year. Starting from June, Nolan has already started filming the prequel The Dark Knight. Thinking of Master Wayne, Andy can't help but think of the most evil clown actor Heath Ledger , he will rely on the role of the clown to sweep the Golden Globes, Oscars and all the Best Supporting Actor awards in the awards season, but it is a pity that it will be after his death. Died of an accidental overdose due to drug abuse.

Although Andy likes his role as the clown, Heath Ledger himself is not very cold. Not only does he drink and smoke, he is heavily dependent on drugs, and his life is so rotten that it is impossible to look directly at it.

In Andy's view, such people abound in Hollywood, and they are not worthy of pity at all. Isn't that how he ended up playing in his previous life! There is no hope at all, and death is only a matter of time.

After writing some feedback of my own, I sent out the email, picked up the coffee cup, tasted the caramel macchiato beautifully, breathed a sigh of relief, and looked at the time, it was 11 am, well, it seems that this morning The working hours are a bit late.

Just as he was about to call to ask Ivana what she had for lunch, his personal cell phone rang. When he picked it up and looked at it, he couldn't help but roll his eyes. What is this old man calling now?

"Hello, Warren, don't tell me that you want to invite me to lunch." Andy didn't respect the old man's awareness at all, and talked very casually with Warren Buffett, the stock god.

"Ha, you really invited me to dinner, forget it, I am not Bill Gates, I can accept you to use coupons to invite you to McDonald's, I have already reserved a seat at noon, you are welcome to have lunch with us... No, no, I'm not interested in playing golf under the scorching sun, I'm afraid of being sunburned to death, DQ's ice cream is very delicious, well, anyway, DQ has been bought by you a long time ago, you can eat whatever you want... Hehe, OK, see you later."

Andy hung up the phone, curled his lips, "I'm so stingy!"

Every time I see this old guy worth tens of billions sitting in an old Cadillac, the crux of the problem is that his license plate has a capital thrifty (thrifty)! It can make Andy want to cover his face and run away, to avoid him, Nima, there is no one who can do this for the sake of being a rich man. Anyway, Andy doesn't have any respect and affection for people like this who are worth tens of billions and live the life of an old farmer in the country wearing slippers, big shorts, and a big white vest with holes. This is not the so-called frugality , is completely sick! And the disease is not light!

Andy didn't think much about why this stock god was looking for him. He was just too lazy to use his brain. Money doesn't mean much to Warren Buffett, who has already put one foot in the coffin, but Andy is only 22 years old and has big He can squander his youth, so he won't be tempted by this old thing to donate or take out money to save the market. . .

Haha, most likely it is a matter of bailout.

Andy was sitting in the car with a mocking smile on his face, touching his chin, and muttering like a little fox.

Yesterday, that is, on August 31, US Treasury Secretary Bernanke said that the Federal Reserve will work hard to prevent the credit crisis from damaging economic development. President Xiao Feixie promised that the government will adopt a package plan to save the subprime mortgage crisis; sold its wholesale and service businesses to Citigroup and ceased its lending business.

To put it bluntly, for the United States, the subprime mortgage crisis brought about a credit crisis, and the financial industry in the United States has entered a period of serious turmoil. Huge floating losses have appeared on the books of many financial companies, and some big crocodiles have jumped directly into the pond and started to bite ugly.

Well, Andy admits that his predator team is a bit like a shit-stirring stick. After successful pouncing time and time again, the melon pickers who follow Andy's predator fund have become a force that cannot be underestimated. With the power of scrutiny, any market that they target will be disturbed and cause headaches.

The U.S., Battalion, Germany, and France are all being bullied. This is the headache of international hot money. The problem is that the dollar has begun to depreciate. The market panic has not eased. The White House has a rescue plan, but The short position in the market is still not decreasing but increasing, which will undoubtedly cause great resistance to the rescue.

In the high-end western restaurant, Andy listened to what Warren Buffett said indifferently. Now fools know that short positions can make money, as long as they have cash in hand.

Ivana, on the other hand, had an elegant smile on her face, and a bright light flashed in her eyes. She looked at the handsome profile of her boyfriend with shock, excitement, excitement, and admiration without blinking. Boyfriend, it's simply amazing!

Andy cut the steak with a nimble knife and fork, put the beef into his mouth with the fork, and said without being affected by Buffett's words: "When others are fearful, you should be greedy; and when others are greedy, you should be fearful. This is your famous saying, and I take it very seriously. Now is the time to be greedy, and no one can reverse the situation. We can only wait until the crisis completely releases the energy. Besides, Warren, do you think I miss the Virgin very much?"

"However, if we don't do something, the U.S. economy will experience a severe recession, which will seriously affect global economic growth..." Warren Buffett couldn't help but sigh inwardly. The young man sitting across from him was completely a The hard-hearted little fox, it seems impossible for him to use his influence and the power of his media to ease the panic in the market.
