The Goddess Shines on America

The visit followed by a break. Of course, the Berens had no intention of being light bulbs, so the four of them broke up directly outside the construction site. Parents still have a lot of serious things to be busy with, and this is the weekend, and it is rare for the schoolmates and schoolmates who have time to stay away from the campus, and there are also some gossips to continue talking.

The easiest thing to find in downtown London is the coffee shop. Although it is not the more lazy France and the Mediterranean coast, the British people's love for coffee can't help but integrate into the afternoon tea culture. Feel free to find a round table to sit down on the street, a cup of strong coffee and a cup of fragrant black tea, and three or two typical afternoon tea pastries. Together with the people around, the two girls naturally formed a beautiful scenery on the street.

Phil put on a black bowler hat he just bought on the street, a long silver hair shawl, and said with a smile, "I took Chinese literature as an elective at Cambridge, Alice. Is there an ancient poem that says that the spring breeze in April is like scissors?"

Alice was stuck in her throat, and she almost choked on the biscuit she just swallowed. She quickly drank a big mouthful of tea before she calmed down: "How is the spring breeze in February? Where do you remember April? Because it's April now? How about that?" It's August now, do you still want to talk about the spring breeze?"

Actually studying Chinese literature, senior sister Phil is really giving herself face, but this mouth is really good enough.

But it doesn't matter if you remember wrongly, what you are afraid of is that you still feel that you are right after remembering wrongly.

"Isn't it April? If February is scissors, what should April be? Two scissors?"

"Oh, and there will be six in December, so you might as well do wholesale." Alice relentlessly made a strong complaint, and it was easy to block Phil's wild thoughts.

The two of them took a few sips of refreshments, and saw a young man sitting nearby, ordered a cup of black tea and two or three snacks, then took out a heavy book from the briefcase, and began to read it carefully.

Phil raised his bowler hat and looked over: "Hey, look at Alice, that person is reading... it seems to be Harry Potter?"

Alice also looked over. The thickness of nearly an inch, the uneven kraft paper cover, and the typical cover pattern, isn't it the "Harry Potter and the Philosopher's Stone" she just published a few months ago. Looking at the young man who was reading a book, his thick black hair was well-built and his face was more handsome with a sense of history. He was a typical Anglo-Saxon descendant and an authentic Briton.

"Looks like the UK version is already on the market."

"You don't even know if your own work has been released overseas?"

"I have a lot of emails every day, especially in literature. There are various publishing houses that ask me to write articles every day. Can I still read them all?"

To put it bluntly and confidently, it will definitely make many staff members in the entertainment circle give up their hearts. Phil smiled wryly, but seeing the man reading seriously, he couldn't help leaning on his chin, flicking his slender hair, and said with a light smile: "Anyway, Ellie, this is one of your book fans, I can't think of it." Pick up a conversation? I can guarantee that the probability of you meeting him is absolutely infinite~"

Soak a handsome British pot?

Alice swept over Senior Phil. If you want to say who is dressed in the style of a British girl at the moment, it is of course Phil Bay, who is originally British and is wearing a black bowler hat in a coquettish manner. Len himself.

"It seems that someone can't find the rhythm of friends in Cambridge." How could Alice move her butt half a step, she teased Phil: "Did you forget that 90% of our Eton students are male Is it? If I really want to catch a catch, do I still need to have a chance encounter in a cafe?"

Such a powerful speech, no wonder Phil kept laughing. Of course, she didn't really intend to tease that reader. But seeing that he was reading seriously, he couldn't stop thinking about it: "Ai Li, among your other friends and colleagues, are there many people who read your book?"

It's really worth counting with your fingers. Alice thought about it and said: "Sissy reads every book, and she reads it directly with the draft. Ashley has been learning things like crazy for the past two years, so I don't have much time. I read the novel, and so does Maiya. As far as my colleagues are concerned, my group of programmers of course picked up "Jurassic Park", but Mr. Lawrence has read every one of them, after all, they have been adapted movie potential."

Speaking of movies, this is of course an enduring topic, especially the British people have a different feeling for Hollywood. Phil stroked his lips quickly with his fingertips, and said thoughtfully: "Movies, and of course TV series, Alice, I remember you bought a small TV station at the end of last year, right? There has been no movement?"

Look at where this topic has gone.

Alice was not in a hurry to answer the question, but couldn't help but glance at that handsome reader. Well, let's not mention whether I have any "sensual interest" in men. From a purely aesthetic point of view, this guy who looks like a college student is indeed quite charming. Considering that DreamWorks has been developing for four or five years, but there is no British actor joining, maybe I can be a pimp?

"Ai Li~?" Then at this moment, Phil's palm dangled in front of her eyes: "Missed, distracted, spring is sprouting~"

"You're just springing up!" Alice gave her senior a bad look.

"Then you stare at them. Alright, alright, tell me quickly, why haven't you seen you develop that TV station for so long?"

Just ask when you think about it, Phil's curiosity about Alice's huge industry is not the slightest bit. After all, it would be fine to say that she is like a traditional entrepreneur who has achieved billions of assets through continuous struggle with a single company; but Alice has been involved in various industries, and the operating conditions of each company are very different. Well, and she is not just a pure venture capitalist, but also has a technical investment, which is too unusual.

But speaking of television...

There is no doubt that anyone can set up a private TV station as long as they want to. Under the premise of legality, it is a matter of setting up an antenna. The only question is how many users can see his show...

"Back then, taking advantage of the stock market crash, I bought it for more than one million yuan, and the coverage of that TV station was only seven or eight channels in a small city." Alice yawned and said, "It's just that you are prepared~ ah~ woo, actually Judging from its current scale, the one million yuan at the beginning was already extremely cheap."

Be prepared, a mere one million, this small amount of money is indeed still affordable. Phil knew exactly how much the school girl made in the stock market crash, so she immediately thought of the next step: "DreamWorks is also the company you joined in the early years, as long as it develops and develops, it will definitely march in the direction of TV stations. But with your current assets, if you really want to add a TV network business to DreamWorks, you can also directly buy Warner and Universal, right?"

“Good idea~”

Alice did not deny the proposal: "But you have to know, Phil, the basic cost of erecting the antenna is really not high. If I really buy Warner's TV network, I will inevitably have to remodel it. Acquisition Fee plus modification fee, why am I so free? Even if they have experienced management and connections, we can just poach people directly, and that will be much cheaper.”

Therefore, talking about business with a super boss is self-defeating, and Phil feels that he can't keep up with the rhythm at this moment: "Wait, what is refitting? What can you refit? Isn't it just watching TV?" Is that all, do you still want to use everyone's TV as...computer...?"

Phil was really surprised to see that Alice's head was a little bit like something.

"British Telecom, Cisco Systems, and DreamWorks and the newly acquired small TV station, senior sister, senior sister, don't you think they have great potential to be combined?"

I really don't think...

Phil smiled wryly: "Alice, my major in Cambridge is just ordinary business administration. Don't be too hard on yourself, okay?"

It seemed that this topic really couldn't be talked about anymore, Alice expressed her understanding of this very well, and immediately, the two girls talked about other messy things, and then enjoyed afternoon tea. London, the foggy capital, is rarely sunny today, and sitting outdoors for a long time does not feel cold. Phil can even peek at Alice’s book fan from time to time to see how much he has read. The midnight duel between Harry and Malfoy should be over.

"Ai Li, your Eaton has really paid off in the past few years." Phil leaned on his chin and said with a smile: "In three or two years, you have made such a series of novels with full potential. Tell me Come on, when will the second part be published? What kind of adventure will Harry and the others go through?"

Thinking about it, the time is really close. As early as when the "Sorcerer's Stone" was promoted, Bantam said that the Harry Potter series would publish one book a year. It's already April now, but the publisher still hasn't disclosed the relevant information, and the fans in the circle have long been unable to hold back the prehistoric power.

"Summer vacation, of course it's summer vacation." Alice didn't even have to think about it: "Every book starts from summer vacation, then Harry goes to school, and then goes home for the whole school year. Let’s follow this pattern, and it just happens to catch up with the readers’ summer vacation~”

"Ah~ That's really worth looking forward to." It's enough to have a letter, and anyone can afford to wait for two or three months. Phil's eyes lit up again, obviously thinking of another excellent idea .

"That's right, Ellie, when do you plan to put "Harry Potter" on the screen? "Batman" is now scheduled to be released in summer, why don't you add another one to DreamWorks soon?"

Oh, that's right, after the filming is finished, the schedule will be scheduled, and DC comics fans, "Batman" will of course be put on the summer schedule.

As for Phil's question, Alice blinked, but shrugged regretfully.
