Hollywood Hunter

Remember in one second [End of the God Station] Mobile phone user input address: m.xinwanben.com

Because there were elderly people and children, we only talked about some very homely topics during the dinner, the homework of the two children, some recent anecdotes in Greenwich City, Mr. President parked his special plane on the runway for a haircut and blocked other people for more than an hour, etc. .

At more than eight o'clock, after dinner, Sophia's parents took the initiative to take the two children away.

Simon, Sophia and Nancy came to a living room of the villa to continue chatting, and the topic turned to more formal business affairs.

Forbes announced the new annual list of the 400 richest people in the United States this week, the life of Simon, who was promoted to the world's first billionaire with hundreds of billions of dollars, did not change much, but the media's discussion on this topic was very lively. In particular, the hustle and bustle caused by the launch of the 58list website by the Igreit portal has not completely dissipated, and most of the comments on Simon on traditional paper media platforms are not too positive.

"The layout of the Westeros system in the Internet industry is simply a more advanced existence than any previous monopoly. You are involved in almost every aspect of this new technological revolution, and you have a strong right to speak. In view of Westeros The relationship between the Luo system and the traditional paper media is starting to deteriorate, and I think the most important thing you should worry about is the emergence of another 'Ida Bertar'."

In the living room, two women cuddled on the sofa next to each other, talking about the series of turmoil caused by 58list, Nancy commented.

Sophia is French, and obviously doesn't pay much attention to the long history of anti-monopoly in the US oil industry. She asked curiously, "Who is Ada Bertal?"

Nancy explained: "The author of "Standard Oil Company History", through more than ten consecutive heavyweight reports, directly led to the split of the Rockefeller business empire."

Simon leaned on the single sofa next to him, holding a cup of coffee in his hand, and said: "I remember that there was a lot of analysis later, "Standard Oil Company History" is full of unfactual biases. Moreover, after Standard Oil Company was split, There was no benefit to the public, and the price of oil rose sharply for more than a dozen years."

"Even if it's true, but who cares? Most of the public is stupid and easily incited, and they just need to see the so-called justice done."

Simon nodded: "I agree with this point, so I have recently tried my best to let the public see what they want to see."

In the current 58list website turmoil, the public opinion orientation that Igretech focuses on promoting is the large amount of free convenience that the 58list website provides the public.

Nancy said: "But the power is not really in the hands of the public."

"The Westeros system has spent a lot more on government lobbying this year than you might think, and I urged Jeff some time ago to set up a dedicated lobbying office in Washington."

Nancy glanced at Simon: "Are you really only 25 years old this year?"

Many people always have to eat a cut to grow their wisdom. A certain guy seems to be able to arrange a lot of things in advance without experience.

Simon took a sip of coffee slowly, and said quietly: "Actually, I'm 280 years old."

Nancy picked up a small pillow and threw it at Simon, but she couldn't help but said to Sophia, "I think he might be a 280-year-old vampire."

Sophia smiled and asked, "How do you say it?"

Nancy stuck out her little hand and turned to the silk scarf on Sophia's neck: "It's obvious evidence."

Sophia blushed suddenly, opened Nancy's little hand,

Nancy just joked, without chasing after him, turned to Simon and said: "In fact, there is the most crucial point, Mr. Westeros, interests, interests are the root cause of all disputes."

"If you're careful enough, many of my layouts in the past few years were all about mitigating potential conflicts of interest as much as possible."

"Unfortunately, this is far from enough."

"I understand that, whether it's the new technology industry or the Hollywood side, I actually want the companies in the Westeros system to eventually become public-owned companies. Of course, the control must be in my hands."

Nancy said, "Then why do you still have so many in your hands?"

Simon shrugged and said, "I can't let it go all at once. People are greedy. If I'm too active, some people will think I'm too weak and ask for more."

Nancy tilted her head, thought for a moment, and couldn't help shaking her head: "This is a dead end."

"Yeah," Simon smiled and said, "So, my plan next is to let them take the initiative to fight."

The Westeros system is now tantamount to being in a capital jungle of the jungle.

Simone voluntarily threw the food she had stored to the surrounding beasts, which would only attract more predators. Although I don't intend to oppose everyone, before sharing the food, smashing some tiger heads and wolf legs can also let many predators who want to come forward to snatch the food to measure their strength.

Nancy heard the words: "Don't you worry about things getting out of hand?"

Simon glanced at Nancy: "Do you think a billionaire is easy to bully?"

Nancy pouted: "You've started to be arrogant."

"This is self-confidence," Simon said, raised his wrist and looked at his watch, and said unceremoniously to a small woman leaning on Sophia: "Should you go back, it just so happens that I can send a driver to see you. a bit."

Nancy blinked and quickly took Sophia's arm: "I plan to stay here and sleep with Sophie tonight."

Simon looked at the little woman wrapped around Sophia and said, "I'm already thinking about how to put on small shoes for you."

"Try it, it's a big deal, I'm resigning, but there have been headhunters in contact with me for the past two years."

"How about we leave the decision to Sophie?"

"Okay," Nancy said, her little arm on Sophia's arm tightened, looking at her best friend: "Sophie, do you choose me or me or me?"

Simon protested: "Is this too shameful?"

Nancy just snorted, and her bright eyes continued to look at Sophia, with a pitiful expression on her face.

Sophia blushed and gave Simon a helpless look.

"All right."

Knowing that there was no drama tonight, Simon put down the coffee cup in his hand, got up and walked towards the two girls.

Nancy was stunned, only to feel a man's tall and straight figure pressing over, leaning over and provoking Sophia's chin and kissing it recklessly, the slight humiliating noise made her shrink back subconsciously, holding back for a moment, just before she When he couldn't help but run away, the man finally let go of Sophia and said, "Then, good night."

Sophia's voice was soft and waxy: "Well, you, good night."

It wasn't until Simon left for a while that Nancy finally opened her mouth slightly and took a deep breath, then looked at Sophia condemningly: "You really let him go."

As a woman, how Sophia couldn't see the underlying spark between Nancy and Simon. This best friend of mine has a strength that is not commensurate with her appearance. The man who can make her tempted is often a more powerful man. The guy who just left happened to be such a person.

There wasn't much space in the little man's heart, and Sophia didn't want anyone to come and share it with her. However, apart from some follow-through, she didn't plan to do anything too deliberately, because she knew that it might be counterproductive.

The next day is Saturday, September 11th.

Early in the morning, the "New York Times" announced that the U.S. Senate officially confirmed that a hearing will be held on September 16 on issues such as fraudulent information, endangering public safety, and disguised low-cost dumping involving the 58list website of Igret. This will determine whether to conduct further investigations.

Igreit immediately responded positively on its own portal, saying it would try its best to cooperate with the hearing.

In the original time and space, the laxity and arrogance shown by Mr. Gate in the congressional hearing on Microsoft's monopoly directly led to the large-scale Microsoft anti-monopoly investigation that lasted for two years, and Microsoft was once infinitely close to being split.

In the subsequent Facebook privacy leak, Zuckerberg learned the lessons of his classmates in the past, and cooperated very respectfully with the congressional hearing. A large number of congressmen were very satisfied with Xiao Zha’s performance. The $100 million hearing turned into a farce in the eyes of the discerning.

Although there are many other influencing factors, there are definitely many benefits to coaxing a group of officials in Congress.

After all, everyone is a person who wants face.

The congressional hearing requires the head of the target company to attend, and the CEO of 58list is Michael Novarek. However, in order to show the importance of this hearing, Jeff Bezos, president of Igret Corporation, took the initiative to say on his Facebook page that he would attend the hearing and answer some questions from the congressmen on the spot. .

Rather than meticulously preparing for possible problems ahead of time, Igret has hired a dedicated public relations team and government advisers to design all the details of next week's hearing.

However, for the invitation of Senate Republican leader Bob Dole to want Simon to attend the hearing in person, Igret politely declined on the grounds that his boss wanted to accompany his pregnant wife.

Congressional hearings are, after all, not too dignified.

The face that should be given is given, it is not right to push the nose on the face.

Simon flew from New York to San Francisco two days over the weekend, spent a weekend with the female assistant, and returned to Los Angeles on Monday.

Janet has already talked to Veronica about staying in North America.

Veronica will be based in New York as a special financial advisor to Westeros, where she will oversee the finances of AOL, Verizon and Nokia.

All three companies are in a state of rapid growth because of continued expansion, very active capital flows, and a lot of autonomy from the top management.

In this state, the lack of strict supervision for a long time is actually very dangerous. If you are not careful, there may be a replica of the Enron incident in Simon's memory.

After the appointment of Veronica, the heads of the three companies all called Simon to express their dissent to varying degrees, but Simon did not make any concessions. As long as the three companies are not going in the wrong direction, he will not interfere too much with the management of Steve Case and others, but this does not mean that he will completely trust several executives.

On September 16, a congressional hearing on the issue of the 58list website was held in Washington as scheduled.

There are actually three parties in this hearing, members of the Senate, executives of Igret Corporation, and delegations from several large US newspaper groups.

In order to avoid being guided by the traditional paper media out of context, Igreat made the hearing into a live TV format. The two major online platforms, nbc TV network and cnn TV station, will broadcast live TV broadcast of the hearing, which is expected to last for three hours. .

Fox and abc that were originally good friends with the Westeros system, because of their own advantages in the field of paper media

Yi, this time chose to refuse.

Simon wasn't surprised either.

At the same time, the Igreit portal will also conduct a comprehensive live broadcast of the hearing with pictures, texts and audio.

After more than half a year of technical upgrades, AOL has basically completed the adsl transformation of its own network, which means that as of September, the basic network speed of more than 26 million World Wide Web users within AOL's coverage area has reached 256kbps, compared with the old dial-up Internet access. The maximum network speed of 128kbps is directly doubled.

In fact, many users have turned on a higher speed of 512kbps, which is enough for web pages to play audio content in real time.

As Simon begins to let the Westeros system expand savagely and completes the adsl layout of America Online, it will also speed up its industrial layout in other areas of the United States beyond the east and west coasts.

Simon watched the three-hour hearing in its entirety at the Dumay Point estate.

There were no special accidents throughout the hearing, and Igreit's advantage was very obvious.

Most of the Senate's vets obviously don't yet know what the Internet really means, so there's a lot to be said for Michael Novarek himself.

Novarek was very patient, and these basic questions, such as what kind of service 58list provides and how the website makes money, inevitably took up most of the hearing.

Although there is no shortage of how 58list will deal with more acute questions such as fraud and false information, these questions were also resolved one by one by Michael Novarek with careful preparation in advance.

The hearing probably culminated in allegations of low-price dumping by representatives of several newspaper groups on 58list.

The print media believe that 58list's free model is completely destroying the tens of billions of dollars worth of classified information advertising industry in traditional print media with a disguised low-cost model. This behavior threatens the jobs of tens of thousands of newspaper practitioners. Moreover, Once it destroys the classified information advertising business of traditional newspapers, 58list may charge consumers higher fees by taking advantage of its own market advantages.

Igreit did not give in.

It means that the launch of 58list service actually saves a lot of unnecessary expenses for the public.

Users may need $30 to place a classified information advertisement in the newspaper. However, with this $30, users can not only enjoy free news, e-mail, social networking, online games, etc. one of them.

Moreover, Ygrit Portal has its own business model, and its main income comes from advertisements of merchants.

This is also the basis for 58list to provide free services.

In addition, the website will not be able to charge users high fees in the future, because once it does, other free websites of the same type will inevitably appear.

In the end, after the three-hour hearing, a member of the House of Representatives in the Senate basically played soy sauce, and the representative of the newspaper group was completely defeated.

The more than 50 million users who followed the hearing in real time on the Internet and TV platforms were more than one-sided in favor of Igrit. The newspaper group, which wanted to protect its own interests, became the villain of this hearing.
