Man is a standing creature.

Boston.

On Sunday afternoon, November 24, I watched the afternoon show of "Wonder Woman 2" with my three sons and my daughter, who came to the United States to visit me, and listened to the three boys talk to their sisters about the box office of the film with admiration.

This is a film produced by his company.

And in her belly, there is a little one of his at this time.

Thinking about the news about "Wonder Woman 2" in the newspaper in the past two days, compared to "Batman v Superman: Dawn of Justice" when she was on the sidelines last year, Maria felt a certain shock.

On the first day of November 22, it was considered a midnight show, and "Wonder Woman 2" earned $35.61 million at the box office on the first day of filming, which was higher than the box office of the new film called "Star Trek 8" last week in the first seven days.

The box office reached $100 million in three days, and Maria couldn't help but convert it into the currency units of Ukraine and even the former Soviet Union, which was a miracle.

The person who created this miracle was the father of the child in his womb. The various emotions that involuntarily emerged in her heart made Maria's already fading strangeness to him even more dissipated because of a certain child. Even, because he often takes a week or two to come and see himself, some resentment will unconsciously surface.

After walking more than 20 minutes from the nearby community theater back to the manor, Maria and her four children had just entered the door when they saw Angel Davis guarding the door of the villa.

The housekeeper greeted the children, and when the siblings entered, she said to Maria, who had a premonition of something, and said, "Lady Bezruk, it's so cold now, you should let the driver drive you out, instead of walking so far." ”

Maria, of course, understood that the housekeeper was concerned about the child in her womb, and explained, "It's okay, my hometown is much colder than Boston." ”

"It's still worth paying attention. Angrey had always been very obedient in front of his master's house, so after a little dissuasion, he did not say more, but said: "Besides, I will soon return to New York, Ms. Anger, and if there is anything, you can call me at any time." ”

"Okay," Maria nodded, hesitated slightly, and looked at the children in the living room with a weak heart, before whispering to Angel, "Anger, what has he been up to lately?"

"Recently, "Wonder Woman 2" has been released, and in addition, there will definitely be a lot of things at the end of the year, and it will be Thanksgiving again, and the boss can't spare time to come," Angeli said, and without waiting for Maria to show too much lost expression, he said again: "However, the boss will definitely come to the East Coast in early December, because when the Westeros Tower in Manhattan is topped out." ”

At the beginning of December, not on a specific day, but certainly at least a week later.

Thinking about it like this, although I am disappointed, I finally have some hope.

Angel Davis explained some trivial matters to Maria, and without forgetting to say hello to the four children, he took the entourage away.

Take the helicopter back to New York in the early evening.

The housekeeper just arrived, and rushed to arrange a send-off for Jian Xin and Tao Yuelei, the two oriental girls returned to China today, as their boss's recent favorite, she also had to pay more attention.

John F. Kennedy International Airport.

Jian Xin and Tao Yuelei were arranged for a Gulfstream V ultra-long-range business jet this time, although it was inevitable to make a stop in Hawaii, but it also made the two girls full of excitement about returning home, in any case, just come to the United States for more than half a year, they can return by private jet, if relatives and friends know this, even if they think of certain things, it is probably difficult to have any prejudice.

In this era, private jets are similar to the legend in China.

Saying goodbye to the housekeeper who came to see them off, as well as friends such as Roberta and Anerys, Jane Xin and her daughter boarded the Gulfstream V, and the private jet soon departed.

When we finally arrived at our destination, it was already more than five o'clock in the evening on Monday Beijing time.

The location is also the capital airport.

In this era, those who can use private jets in China are big shots, and then look at the two girls with a few foreign women as followers, the airport staff greeted them more attentively, and some people recognized Jian Xin's two daughters, although they did not ask for autographs or anything like that, but for the two international supermodels who have even appeared in "Oriental Time and Space" and have been very popular in China recently, the words are full of compliments.

Originally, the feeling of being close to home was timid, but in this way, the sense of estrangement that had not been born quickly dissipated.

As soon as they walked out of the airport, the two women saw a girl who was still arrogantly stepping on high heels and seemed to be two meters tall rushing over, hugging the two women one by one, almost kissing them in public, so it attracted the attention of passengers around the airport.

After Zhu Momo greeted the two girls, he hurriedly introduced the woman next to him who was also tall and had some resemblance to her, and it was Mo Wuling, who became the girl's personal assistant under the arrangement of Zhu Momo's mother.

In the end, it was the turn of a short-haired woman wearing a black women's suit and a capable temperament.

I've been in contact many times in advance, of course I know.

An Xiaohan.

President of Elite Modeling Agency China.

Originally, Elite's headquarters was set up in Shanghai, which is more open, but because it was arranged in advance to talk about some work in the capital tomorrow, everyone gathered here.

After such a pleasantry, a group of rather eye-catching women walked together to several luxury Mercedes Benzes waiting outside the airport.

Zhu Momo, who had a lot to talk about with the two sisters, took the initiative to squeeze a car with Jian Xin, and when the car started, the girl couldn't help but pounce on Jian Xin, who was sitting in the middle, and was intimate and coquettish, and Tao Yuelei on the other side was inexplicably ...... The heart is weak, but he has reached a tacit understanding in private, and intends to squeeze out Zhu Momo completely.

"Okay now, tonight we will live together in the courtyard of Mao'er Hutong, that is, we have to talk by candle and night, and my aunt will never find a reason to stop me again. ”

Jian Xin heard Zhu Momo say this, and half-jokingly: "You have broken up with Simon, and it is not appropriate to live in Simon's house again, right?"

Zhu Momo was still glued to Jian Xin, because of the excitement that he hadn't seen for a long time, he didn't feel the temptation in her tone, but said: "I didn't want to break up, it was all arranged by my mother." ”

Tao Yuelei on the other side changed the topic slightly and asked, "Momo, how did you make that movie?"

"Filming started in early October, and I didn't have many scenes, and the filming was finished at the end of the month. Moreover, the movie has also been completed last week, and the production has begun in the later stage, "Zhu Momo draws inferences:" However, "Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon" is not very easy over there, not only does it have to run around the country, and it will probably be filmed next month, but it can be tired, especially the martial arts scene, Youhu also said on the phone last week that she hung Weiya on a lake and fell, and she was so tired that she didn't want to be saved for a moment, and she felt that drowning in the lake was easier than filming. "Hot books

"Is that scary?"

"Yes, martial arts drama, flying around. ”

Jian Xin asked again, "Then what have you been doing lately?"

"It's mainly in Chinese opera," Zhu Momo said, and suddenly felt a little wilted: "Simon said it, I'm not suitable to be an actor, filming "If I Have Something to Say" is just showing my face, but my mother, anyway, I'm trapped in Chinese opera now, and my mother asked Simon to arrange a special auditor for me." ”

Jian Xin listened to Zhu Momo's complaining tone, and said with a smile: "You are still not satisfied with this, how many people can't get into the Chinese drama if they want to." ”

Zhu Momo sat up straight, or pouted dissatisfiedly: "Why don't we change?"

Jian Xin immediately shook her head: "Don't change." ”

Zhu Momo glanced at her with contempt, remembered something, took out a box of discs from his bag, and said to the two women: "Look, I happened to pass by a VCD stall and bought it, and all five of them are available, and the vendor said that it has sold well recently." This is the VCD of the fifth Victoria's Secret show, I even think this must have been done by Simon, not only pushed the two of you to CCTV, but also the big show was broadcast over there on November 18, how did this side appear almost synchronously, and with Chinese subtitles, faster than domestic pirated movies. ”

Jian Xin listened to Zhu Momo's sour words, and looked at the disc.

The plastic box on the outer packaging is quite beautifully made, and in addition to the words of the Victoria's Secret lingerie show, the photos of the two women are also quite conspicuous in the silhouettes of many supermodels.

Tao Yuelei also came over to watch, and almost quickly decided in her heart that it must have been arranged by that man for them, just like the last CCTV interview, the other party needed some footage of the Victoria's Secret show as material, and they didn't need to contact them, so someone took the initiative to send it over. Moreover, after the interview about them in "Oriental Time and Space" was broadcast last week, in recent days, at least the active contact of relatives and friends in China has made them realize the influence of the whole thing.

I didn't expect that there would be such a thing.

After looking at it for a while, Jian Xin also couldn't wait to see the content of the disc, but she didn't forget Zhu Momo next to her, and asked again: "By the way, Momo, how are Jill and Annie doing?"

In fact, Jian Xin and Jill Peckett on the Chinese side have more frequent contact than Zhu Momo, so they said that they came back this time and said hello in advance, because there was something, and Jill and Jill did not come to greet them.

After the initial excitement and joy of reuniting after a long absence, Zhu Momo calmed down a little, and also reacted to some things, listening to Jian Xin asked another idea, Zhu Momo was not perfunctory, and said: "Jill and they are recently negotiating a large-scale villa real estate project, which is said to be worth 1 billion, and they have been busy recently. Having said this, Zhu Momo still couldn't hold back and asked, "You must know these things, right?"

Jian Xin nodded calmly: "Yes, but it's definitely not as detailed as you know here." ”

"Actually, I don't know much, if I hadn't concealed it, I'm afraid that the money I put on Jill's side would have been asked for back by my mother. ”

Simon gave a lump sum of living expenses to several girls, which was not much, and the girls did not spend it immediately, but as an investment fund.

Jian Xin paused when she heard Zhu Momo talk about this, but she didn't say anything more.

It's just that the atmosphere in the carriage has changed a lot unconsciously.

Back at the courtyard of Mao'er Hutong in Nanluoguxiang, the time was already evening.

Jian Xin and his entourage had just set up the room under the welcome of the Jiangshan Dance sisters here, and Jill Pectort and Zhao Annie rushed back.

Then, it wasn't until night fell that Chen Qing, who had been busy outside for a day, didn't return.

Lin Su has recently been following up on China Telecom's IPO project in the south, which is getting closer and closer to the roadshow, while Chen Qing has been out of her body and busy with her own affairs.

When she got home, she was so tired that she simply said hello to Jian Xin and her two daughters, and Chen Qing couldn't wait to take a hot bath to relax.

I'm really tired today.

In the morning, I went to a certain big yamen in Dongcheng District, and was personally received by a certain big leader and talked about Ukraine.

To some extent, in fact, Chen Qing is looking for herself.

In an email correspondence with his boss, Simon talked about asking Carlyle to send a delegation to Ukraine to try to tap talents in the field of construction machinery from the former Soviet Union, and casually talked about Black Sea shipyards and the like.

Chen Qing investigated and found out what the Black Sea Shipyard really meant, so she occasionally talked about it when discussing the real estate project in Haidian District with an official in Beijing two days ago.

Unexpectedly, I was noticed directly from the top, and I was called over today to explore.

Of course, I know what I want from above, but for this matter, Chen Qing didn't dare to pull the banner of tiger skin, there is one thing to say, there is really not much she can do, and everyone knows that even if the former Soviet Union is now in ruins, it is still difficult to be stared at by the entire West, and there are some things that China wants to do.

However, of course, Chen Qing did not forget to sell well, saying that he would do his best, and also talked about his direct business dealings with Ukraine.

Now that I'm talking to her, the above obviously already knows.

In any case, for the several big projects that Carlyle is promoting, and even the foreign trade business in her hands, it will definitely be a good thing in the future.

As for...... She can only do what she can.

After all, there are some things, once they are too out of line, they will involve human life, and she doesn't want to get too involved.

After the meeting in the morning, the afternoon was also continuous.

You can't go home until dark.

Soaking in the comfortable bathtub, Chen Qing carefully combed through today's meeting in her mind, and unconsciously half an hour had passed.

came out again, but still didn't say too much about the arrival of Jian Xin and Tao Yuelei. After all, she has actually done enough things for the two women in private, and besides, everyone is a woman next to Simon after all, and there is naturally a competitive relationship, and it is already good that she can do some of it, and she can't ask for more.

At dinner, she discussed the rose garden project with Jill and Jill the most, which was what she was most concerned about.
