Johnston's mansion.

The loud cry of the child sounded, and Veronica was the first to appear at the door.

In the living room, Simon and Janet were at each side of the room, with a certain little guy in the middle.

Janet was still comforting and encouraging, but Melbourne sat on the carpet and cried. Seeing Veronica appear, the little guy immediately spread out a pair of chubby hands towards her, and said vaguely with a crying voice: "Grandma (nana), hug (hug)."

Veronica looked at the little guy, took a step forward in distress, but stopped, looking at Simon who was holding a baby toy in his hand with a helpless expression.

Tomorrow is December 6th, Melbourne's first birthday.

Under normal circumstances, young children should be able to try to walk at this time, or at least stand. However, obviously under the doting of a large family, the little guy is still unable to stand at this time.

Words are learned very early.

Only this made Simon even more depressed.

The first word a child learns is not the father or the mother.

However, the first word a little guy learned was 'hug'.

Very disrespectful, I want to hug everyone I see.

In the face of such a baby who can act like a baby, this kind of request can of course be satisfied.

As a result, I am often carried around by adults. I used to be able to crawl when I was half a year old, but now I am too lazy to crawl, let alone walk.

Regarding the education of the children, when the little guy was still in Janet's belly, the two occasionally discussed and said that one must be a good cop and the other a bad cop.

Now it seems that Simon and Janet are both the kind of 'bad cops'.

Of course, there is no shortage of good cops.

Almost everything in Australia.

Simon didn't speak, and Veronica didn't dare to go forward and pick up the child. The little guy cried even louder when he saw that the 'nana' who loved him in the past didn't move.

Then, the big boss came out.

Raymond Johnston appeared at the door, glanced at the situation in the room, and immediately understood what was going on. Probably because of the next generation of relatives, the old man was actually more doting on the little guy, he just glared at his daughter and son-in-law with a sullen face, and when he came over, he took the little guy who was already shouting 'papa, hug' away.

Janet looked at the child being carried away by her father, dropped the rattle in her hand, looked at Simon, and said, "How can this work?"

Veronica still stayed in the distance, listening to Janet say this, and said softly: "Mer is still young."

Then he looked at Simon again.

Simon also threw away the toy in his hand, noticed the obvious worry in Veronica's eyes, hesitated, and only shrugged.

Veronica is obviously worried that the couple will take the little guy away this time.

Janet looked at the strange emotional exchange between Simon and Veronica, and was a little depressed, and simply opened her arms and shouted to Simon: "Hug."

Simon noticed the dissatisfaction on Janet's face, got up and walked over with a smile, bent over and hugged her light body, kissed the woman's cheek, and then left the living room so tired and crooked.

The old man was originally a little dissatisfied with Simon and Janet for leaving the child in Australia for Veronica to take care of. When he came over last month, he hinted at bringing the little guy back to Los Angeles.

However, these days, seeing the couple teaching their children to walk, they suddenly stopped mentioning a certain thing.

In Janet's words, the old man educated the eldest and second of his own family, and then he was not very good at cultivating offspring, and he was even more fond of the youngest grandson.

If the little guy is always here and wants to have a successor to the Westeros family, the two of them will probably only have one more.

Of course this is mostly a joke.

The child is indeed a little small.

The next day was the little guy's first birthday. The preparations had already started in advance. Naturally, it was very lively. There were a lot of rich and famous people in Australia. A certain little guy was ignorant about it. It was more like a social party. .

Probably inspired by the "Dream of Red Mansions" that she has been reading non-stop, Janet also played a small game to catch the week at the party.

Of course, things like powder, lipstick, etc. are definitely not, but all kinds of objects with very good meanings.

Don't give the little guy a chance to become 'Jia Baoyu' at all.

Finally grabbed a piece of iron ore, the old man was happy for a whole day.

Janet was very depressed and thought that the reason why the little guy grabbed iron ore was because he held something like chocolate.

Snacks!

Simon felt that it was more likely that among the serious things like a pile of pens and watches, the black iron ore seemed the most indecent. The little guy sees something strange in a pair of everyday items, and of course grabs it curiously.

The scale of the Westeros system is too large, and even on vacation, Simon can't completely let go of everything.

On the North American side, the most eye-catching thing during Thanksgiving was not Home Alone 2, which naturally achieved a high box office, but the videotape sales of the Victoria's Secret show.

A week later, Daenerys Entertainment quickly put tapes of the show on the shelves after the abc television broadcast created a ratings miracle.

none

Whether it is the memorable enchanting style of the Victoria's Secret Army, or the five consecutive new songs that have become classics in the big show, they have greatly promoted the sales of the Victoria's Secret Big Show video tapes.

It just happened to be the peak sales season during the festival, and in the first week on the shelves, the videotape of the Victoria's Secret show quickly sold 780,000 boxes.

If it weren't for the fact that the video tapes were selling too well, and the production and distribution failed to keep up with the demand, it would not be a problem for the sales to exceed 1 million boxes in the first week.

In the following two weeks, weekly sales of the videotape reached 1.36 million and 950,000, respectively.

In just last week, the total sales volume reached 3.09 million boxes.

At a price of around $30, 3.09 million videotapes have sold over $90 million.

Obviously, this is just the beginning.

The industry generally predicts that in North America, the sales of this phenomenal videotape will exceed 10 million boxes, and the global sales volume is even expected to reach 15 million boxes.

You must know that in recent years, the Hollywood box office has the best film, and the total global sales after the release of the videotape is this number.

15 million boxes, $450 million in sales.

Absolutely a miracle.

All of Hollywood has been trying to catch up to Daenerys Entertainment as much as possible over the years.

However, just this videotape made other competitors once again have a hopeless frustration.

Whether it is in the entertainment industry or the fashion industry, the sales of the Victoria's Secret show video tapes are all amazing.

Then there was even news that the Ford Modeling Agency was trying to claim a share of the sale of the tape.

According to Hollywood's basic agreement with major guilds, film and television creators do have the right to receive a small commission from the sales of videotapes, however, this videotape is a complete exception.

Even if some of the Victoria's Secret Angels have actor status, this time, Daenerys Entertainment signed an ordinary catwalk contract with the Victoria's Secret Legion.

If you want a share, don't even think about it.

When Amy Pascal heard the news, she said it directly. If Ford is going to make a fuss, none of the company's models will be on the Victoria's Secret runway next year.

It was clear that it was impossible to get a share. Faced with this kind of warning, all interested parties immediately died.

This big show is obvious for the career promotion of participating models.

Because of the high ratings of TV broadcasts and the sale of video tapes, the 40 Victoria's Secret Angels have gained public popularity far beyond other models in the same industry, and cooperation invitations have come one after another.

The competition in the fashion circle is very fierce. To have such an advantage, everyone can't ask for it, and naturally there will be no extravagance.

If you are really kicked out, then someone will really cry and someone will laugh.

Those who cry are kicked away, those who laugh are those who try their best to get in.

The chairman of ltd, Leslie Wexner, is even more fortunate and regretful. At first, he almost agreed to fully authorize the Victoria's Secret show to Daenerys Entertainment. If he did, the huge profits brought by the sales of the video tapes would be greatly increased. Don't even think about getting ltd for a penny. Unfortunately, if you could fully undertake the investment in the Victoria's Secret show instead of sharing the budget with Daenerys Entertainment, most of the proceeds will be owned by ltd. .

450 million US dollars in sales, excluding all costs, the net profit is estimated to be 150 million US dollars.

The net profit of the entire ltd, most years is not necessarily so much.

Of course, Leslie Wexner also knows that the one-off gain this time may be very large.

After all, the first Victoria's Secret show was basically done by Simon Westeros himself. Whether it was the design of the angel costume or the production of the background music, Westeros spent a lot of thought, so he gave the audience a glimpse. An unprecedented sense of surprise.

Of course, the future Victoria's Secret show will also attract attention. However, because the angel costume is destined to be unable to innovate too much, it is unlikely that Westeros will always create songs for the Victoria's Secret Show. Therefore, if you want to win the first place It's basically impossible for this sensation to happen.

Of course, it's good enough to be able to do this once.

The focus of this operation is the Victoria's Secret brand. Compared with 1991, this year's overall sales are expected to increase by 30%, most of which are achieved in the half year after the Westeros system's acquisition of ltd.

It is expected that next year, Victoria's Secret's sales growth is likely to reach 40% to 50%.

Maintaining such a sales growth rate, within five years, Victoria's Secret will be able to grow into the largest underwear brand in North America.

On the other hand, ltd's fast fashion transformation of the fashion business is also quite smooth.

Leslie Wexner is a seasoned businessman with years of experience in the fashion industry, and he never rests on his laurels.

In the past, I just couldn't find the right direction. After getting Simon's guidance, Leslie Wexner carefully investigated the Spanish zara brand that has developed its business to North America, and quickly clarified the company's expansion model, and he The express brand under ltd will be adjusted and transformed accordingly.

Simon had thought the holiday would be safe and secure in Australia until after the New Year.

However, after the news of the success of the Victoria's Secret video, there was suddenly another bad news from North America.

The thing is about Time Warner.

Everyone knows that Steve Ross' time is numbered because of cancer.

But, after more than half a year of treatment,

On the surface, at least, Ross appeared to be showing signs of improvement and remained firmly in control of Time Warner throughout the year.

Time Warner's situation, except for the film business supported by the DC Movie Universe, is somewhat unsatisfactory.

After waiting patiently for more than half a year, as the end of the year approaches, some people are restless again.

Gerald Levine, the current vice chairman of Time Warner, who has been designated as the next successor by Ross, has recently attacked a large number of Time Warner shareholders and executives, demanding that Ross is too ill to concentrate on managing the company. Steve Ross steps down

The most direct result of this management coup was not Ross's resignation, but a slump in Time Warner's stock price.

Naturally, another group of people immediately expressed dissatisfaction, especially the hardcore supporters of the Ross faction.

The two sides have come and gone several times in the media and in private, and basically they have to die.

After all, no one wants Time Warner's stock price to keep falling.

But soon another thing happened.

On December 13, Steve Ross suddenly fell into a coma and was unconscious.

After examination, doctors determined that it was a lung infection caused by complications of cancer.

For a terminal cancer patient, because their immune system is too fragile, the cancer itself is often not fatal, and complications are the most dangerous.

Two days later, after emergency surgery, Steve Rose's family announced that Rose's condition had stabilized again.

However, those who are familiar with the insider know that Steve Ross is still in a coma, and it is likely that he will not be able to survive this difficulty.

The news inevitably spread, and Time Warner's stock price fell again.

As a result, the high-level coup d’état, Ross was critically ill, and the turmoil lasted for a week. Cumulatively, Time Warner’s stock price still fell by 16%, and its market value fell from $17.3 billion at the beginning of the incident to $14.5 billion. In just one week, the market value evaporated. $2.8 billion.

This time, everyone stopped making noises.

In just one week, it brought investors 2.8 billion U.S. dollars in book momentum. If you count it, everyone may have to get out.

Moreover, with Ross dying, there is no need to make a fuss.

Time Warner executives also realized that the most important thing at this time was to avoid the company's continued turmoil.

However, when it comes to further distribution of power, the factions of all parties have once again fallen into a stalemate.

The culprit behind the recent series of events was Gerald Levin, who then dared not confront him in public, but the Ross faction also strongly invited Gerald Levin to take responsibility in private.

To put it simply, it was to give up his original plan to be the heir to the Ross position.

Gerald Levin started early, just because he didn't want to wait any longer, so as not to make troubles, and at this time, he would not take the initiative to back down. Of course, everyone is very concerned about the market value and stock price. However, if he cannot control Time Warner, the company will be irrelevant to him.
