C girl's movements are very fast.

On Monday morning, Feb. 21, The Wall Street Journal reported that Tinkerbell CEO Claire Gein had an appointment with the president of Morgan Stanley's West Coast investment banking division.

The media and the public usually habitually refer to the major financial giants on Wall Street as “investment banks”. In fact, Morgan, Goldman Sachs, Lehman, and Solomon are all comprehensive financial service companies. One of the many businesses of the giant, it is mainly responsible for the underwriting of corporate IPOs and various types of stocks and bonds.

Therefore, the purpose of Lady C meeting with the head of Morgan's West Coast investment banking department is self-evident.

On the same morning, on the financial section of the Igreit portal, an 'inside source' immediately gave a positive revelation that Tincobair was considering an initial public offering (IPO), a time when this company in recent years Rapidly emerging electronics companies quickly became the focus of outside attention.

Established in 1991, it became a blockbuster in June of that year by relying on a finished product of a cheap digital camera, and its sales exceeded 300 million US dollars in the second year of establishment.

As if to build momentum for the IPO of Tincobair, on February 22, Tincobair released the official financial report for 1993 through the Igreit portal.

In the whole year of 1993, Tinkerbell sold 2.76 million units of icam series digital cameras, with a turnover of US$1.39 billion and a net profit of US$1.2. It is rare in the entire business history for an electronics company to achieve sales of more than $1 billion and a net profit of over $100 million in just three years. This data also proves once again that a blue ocean Internet industry has a broad space for development.

February 22 is Simon's 26th birthday.

Still quietly.

If you don't count C girl publicly wishing her boss a happy birthday on "The Tonight Show".

On the important page of the newspaper for two consecutive days, Claire also accepted an interview with NBC's "The Tonight Show" on Simon's birthday. The C-girl, who is a strong businesswoman, has the same temperament and style as any other actress. Jay Leno talked eloquently, about his idea of ​​founding Tinkerbell, about the development of icam cameras in the past few years, and about his outlook on the company.

Of course there are also inevitable questions about Simon.

Girl C is very calm about this, saying that she is one of the abcds around Simon, and she boldly expresses her admiration for her boss during work and Simon's infinite support for her establishment of Tincober, and occasionally some small ambiguities are inevitable. Although the topic was dismissed lightly by the girl C, the girl's undisguised faint aftertaste seemed to be completely self-defeating, causing the audience to boo.

At the same time wishing Simon's birthday at the end, don't forget to continue to advertise the fourth-generation icam-40 digital camera that Tin Kobel will release during Easter. It fits the theme very well, and it gives the impression that this fairy is on stage to promote its own products.

Naturally there are doubts.

An article in the "San Francisco Chronicle" on Wednesday mocked the singularity of Tinkobel's products and the gap between icam and professional digital cameras, and also analyzed the situation that icam is facing the joint siege of major old electronics manufacturers, claiming that A small company with a 'falling market share' could be sidelined within three years, just like Apple, which is in rapid decline.

After the market value reached its peak of US$7.6 billion in 1992, affected by factors such as the rise of Microsoft and the stagnation of its own product innovation, even though the previous fiscal year of 1993 still achieved a net profit of more than US$500 million, Apple's stock price still fell all the way, and the current market value has fallen. To about 4.3 billion US dollars, a drop of as much as 43% from its peak.

At first, Tinkber, which only relied on purchasing parts from other manufacturers to assemble the first generation of icam-10, was obviously inferior to Apple on the surface. Whether it is a Japanese German or a strong American electronics manufacturer, relying on years of technical accumulation Able to produce better products than Tincobel.

The Tin Cobill Company refuted the San Francisco Chronicle's argument on the same day.

Simon scoffed at the report.

According to this point of view, it is impossible for the mobile phone giants such as Motorola and Nokia with deep accumulation of technology to be surpassed by a "layman" from Apple.

In three years, Tinkobeier already has its own technology accumulation, marketing model and sales network, which is the basis for the company to continue its rapid development, not just the product technology.

Compared with the "San Francisco Chronicle", many professional media are more optimistic about the IPO prospects of Tincobel. According to the financial report performance in 1993 and the rising momentum of the company, the industry generally predicts that the IPO price-earnings ratio of Tin Kebeier will not be lower than 20 times, which means the company's valuation of 2.4 billion US dollars.

Relying on a 15% stake in Tincobair, Lady C's net worth is estimated at $360 million. 360 million US dollars, has basically stepped on the threshold of the 400 richest people in the United States. After the official IPO, the stock price rose slightly, and the former Simon Westeros Maid may become one of the 400 richest people in the United States on this year's "Forbes" list.

When the media and the public were envious of the C girl's life experience, the Westeros company's explicit and secret teams were operating in the UK on the "mysterious loli army".

If you can not be exposed, of course, it is best not to be exposed.

After News Corp refused to publish a report, the PR team of the Westeros system also successfully intercepted two mainstream British newspapers, The Guardian and The Daily Telegraph, trying to report on the matter, but some things Those who have a heart want to poke it out, but they can't stop it after all.

On February 25, another British gossip newspaper "Daily Mirror", which is similar in nature to the "News of the World", still published the same "Mysterious Loli Legion" article.

At the same time as the news was published, the London Police Service also received a report.

The storm started.

The news of a group of mysterious Russian girls hiding in the city of London who are suspected of being abducted or receiving special agent training is really worth digging.

On the day that the "Daily Mirror" report was published, the villa next to Burton Park in Chelsea was blocked by paparazzi reporters who had heard the news, including the private girls' school where the girls attended and others in the surrounding area. The object of media mining.

The public opinion was raging, and the London Police Service also announced that it was officially involved in the investigation.

Now that things can no longer be covered up, in order to avoid London's developed tabloid system concocting more outrageous rumors, Simon also follows the original plan.

The next day, a person in charge of the London branch of the Westeros Company convened a press conference to publicly clarify that several girls in London were special international students sponsored by the Westeros Company for the purpose of helping Westeros. The Luo family trains personal assistants.

The person in charge did not hide when he was inquired by the media, and the straightforward explanation was that he was an assistant similar to Claire Gein, the founder of Tincobler, which is being hotly debated recently.

The British media, who were originally digging into the details and discovered a scale and a half claw, were suddenly a little confused.

Just admitted it so openly, and it hasn't been lively yet.

So a lot of doubts were thrown immediately.

Why such a group of girls?

Do the girls have a distinctive family background?

Are the girls being nurtured being abused, and are they willing?

To be more sensitive, are these girls who are underage, have some kind of contact with Simon Westeros, are they hurt?

Such a lively weekend.

On Monday, February 27, a spokesman for the London Police also released a preliminary incident investigation report. The girls were indeed international students sponsored by the Westeros Company. All procedures were compliant and legal, and the living conditions were very generous. subject to any detention and ill-treatment.

How can this be!

Also let it be fun to watch.

So, can you believe the official word?

A child protection group in the UK immediately jumped out and demanded an investigation into the girls' situation.

The media followed suit.

At the same time, the background of the girls and their selection process also surfaced under the excavation of the British tabloids. Westeros collects resumes on a large scale through model recruitment. Is this suspected of fraud? The parents of the girls once asked to stay In the United Kingdom, the parents who made such requests were all rejected, and even some girls who were originally selected were expelled. Is this practice by Westeros with bad intentions?

so many kinds.

People who eat melons only think that the melons are getting bigger and sweeter.

Then the Westeros Company simply released another super melon.

The Times, a subsidiary of News Corp., published a statement on February 30. In order to clarify some doubts from the media and the public, Westeros will conduct a live webcast on the girls' lives on March 1. Appropriate display.

Webcast, never heard of it.

However, after the news was released, many TV networks in Europe and America contacted Westeros to try to get the right to broadcast live TV. Rupert Murdoch also personally called Simon for this.

Simon didn't object either. After a simple communication, he added a live broadcast team from British Sky TV to follow up, but the live broadcast media would only have two hours, instead of the full-day follow-up of the webcast.

On the day the news was released, the live broadcast website address was also announced in a prominent position on the Igreit portal. Millions of users clicked in at the first time, only to see a simple video display screen, and please look forward to it.

The scheduled live broadcast time is March 1st, the girls will start in London time, and it is still more than nine o'clock in the evening on the west coast of the United States.

Before the live broadcast that night, Jeff Bezos personally called Simon, with a bit of excitement and worry in his tone, saying that the live broadcast had not yet started, and the number of viewers from all over the world waiting to watch in the live broadcast room had exceeded 31 million. This number It's really too huge. The world's mainstream TV stations have more than 3,000 viewers, but there are only a handful of programs. Moreover, after the live broadcast starts, this number will definitely increase.

Most importantly, according to the calculation of 30 million viewers, Igreit has to bear about 200,000 US dollars in server and network bandwidth costs. If it lasts for a month, it is 6 million US dollars.

This is really too expensive.

Of course, Bezos also expressed his optimism about online video live broadcasts because of this, and believes that if this live broadcast can be successful, Igret may invest in a live video website in advance.

The much-anticipated, live video screen lights up on time at 5:40 a.m. London time.

The camera first falls on the living room of the villa with a simple yet luxurious decoration style.

The voice-over is a very soft female voice. She briefly introduces herself to Jill, and does not give her own shots, but directly.

Continued: "It's 5:40 London time, the girls are up, but we'll have to wait a bit, it's still private time. Oh, first let me introduce, this is Ms. Burns, the girls' housekeeper."

Hearing that Jill was going to take everyone to see how the girls got up, the audience in front of countless computer screens were excited, and even more impatient when Jill introduced a certain old-fashioned woman in black.

It's just that the girls still did not appear in the camera, but under the leadership of Ms. Burns, they briefly introduced the situation in the villa.

Even though they were still expecting a group of goblins selected by Simon Westeros to appear as soon as possible, many viewers were still stunned by this luxurious villa, and some people who originally questioned the situation of the girls also gave up similar thoughts. If living in such an environment counts as being abused, I would rather be abused for the rest of my life.

After about ten minutes, the camera finally began to turn to the stairs, all the way to the second floor, and aimed at the nameplate on a door: "This is Natalie's room."

Immediately, a hand reached out and tapped outside the screen.

After a while, Natalie Vodianova opened the door and politely invited Jill to enter. The girl had put on a set of training clothes, showing a very good figure for her age, and she was generous with her. Gildau said good morning and invited the other party to enter.

The camera follows, watching the girl deftly tidy the room while occasionally asking questions.

Looking at this equally luxurious bedroom, some of the girls watching in front of the computer screen were already looking forward to being 'abused' by Westeros.

"Nata, can I call you that?"

"certainly."

"Speaking of which, your English is really good."

The girl sorted out her personal items in the spacious bathroom and smiled, "Thank you, I worked hard, but other people actually said it better."

"Oh, by the way, can you explain to everyone why it's 5:40?"

Natalie finally folded a towel and hung it on the shelf, took Jill out of the room, and said, "Because the boss is used to getting up at six o'clock, we must be earlier than him."

"boss?"

"Yeah, Mr. Westeros," Natalie said, with a distinct little admiration on his face: "I'm looking forward to seeing him."

"Have you not met Westeros yet?"

"If it wasn't mentioned in the newspaper some time ago, we wouldn't even know who our boss is."

"Oh, then, why do you think he's hiding this."

"The boss must have a reason for the boss," Natalie said, frowning slightly, and said, "So I think those newspapers are talking nonsense. We all live well, and the boss is also a very good person."
