Although Nack's unexpected and sudden collapse didn't make Simon as anxious as many new tech investors, he worked until nearly seven o'clock in the evening on Monday before returning to Cape Dume.

Simon returned home, and the Oscars on the other side of the city had already begun an hour.

After all, it was such a big thing as the stock market crash, and Janet didn't have time to spare this day, and when she saw her man coming back, she immediately pounced on Simon and hung on him, looking like she had worked hard.

Simon had to walk into the restaurant with Janet in his arms.

Talk as you go.

The topic is still NASDAQ.

Janet, who was hugged by Princess Simon, looked up with her face up, and her eyes skillfully put the little star: "First of all, congratulations, my dear, at 10 o'clock this morning, at 7045 points on the NASDAQ, your personal net worth reached up to 2.3 trillion US dollars, equivalent to 28% of the federal GDP of 8 trillion US dollars in 1996, second only to Germany, which is in third place with a GDP of 2.5 trillion US dollars, and can be ranked fourth." ”

Simon smiled and said, "Just say 'but', I can hold it." ”

"But ah," Janet curled the corners of her mouth, "in just one day, that number dropped to $2.1 trillion, a drop of about 8%, $200 billion in assets disappeared out of thin air, and more will disappear in the future." ”

As he spoke, he had entered the restaurant.

Simon put Janet on the chair, and went over to say hello to Jennifer and the little one in the woman's belly, and did not forget the children at the table, and finally took Melbourne to the table with him.

In the past, I didn't watch much TV during meals, but today it's the Oscars, which is a slight exception.

As soon as he sat down, Simon looked at the TV screen that was open on the wall on one side of the restaurant.

Happens to be an award for the best costume design in the corner.

The award presenters are Natasha Hensquich and Meghan Gale, the two heroines of "Xenomorph 2", which was just released last Friday, and the two women are the presenters, and there is obviously an element of gaining exposure for "Xenomorph 2".

This is actually the usual practice.

Careful people observe each Oscars, and it is easy to find some patterns, in addition to the nominated filmmakers, most of the other Hollywood stars participating in the awards ceremony will have new films released that year.

The star cheers for the Oscar, and the Oscar exposes the star, which is a win-win situation.

As for the award presenters, in addition to the actor awards, which are often awarded by the previous generation of award-winning actors of the opposite sex, and this is not absolute, the award presenters of other projects are also not randomly selected by the Oscar organizing committee, and they all have their own considerations.

is like the two generations of xenomorph girls on stage at this time, obviously to promote the upcoming "Xenomorph 2".

Of course, this kind of guest pit is not something that anyone can get on if they want to, but it still depends on the strength of connections.

The nominees for the Best Costume Awards were "The English Patient", "Emma", "Hamlet", "Lady's True Colors" and "Lady Peron", after the nominations were introduced, Natasha Hensquch opened the envelope in her hand, glanced at it, and turned slightly to Meghan Gale next to her, and the two girls approached the microphone together to announce the results of the awards.

The English Patient.

In the applause, Ann Rose, the costume design director of "The English Patient", got up from the audience, hugged the crew around her one by one, and then went on stage.

In the restaurant of the Shell Villa, because there were little ones sitting next to her who had begun to understand the words of adults, Janet didn't tease someone next to her with the two xenomorph girls, but she still pouted: "The traces of public relations are too obvious." ”

Of the five nominated films, the other four are costume dramas that pay great attention to the details of costume design, and "The English Patient" is a modern drama, even if it cannot be said that the costume design is irrelevant, it is difficult to have anything to speak of. Now, it's just that this movie has won the Oscar, and onlookers with a little brain can feel that it's boring.

Simon glanced at a certain designer on the TV screen who was giving an acceptance speech, and said with a smile: "It's a bit too much, but after smashing so many public relations resources, it is inevitable that the judges will vote for "The English Patient", we can't emphasize that this award doesn't need to be voted for, right?"

Jennifer also said at this time: "Aren't you afraid that the academy will react sooner or later and deliberately target our movie?"

"I've backed down on my way to help them balance, and if it's against us, it's going to be a scandal. Moreover, even if the academy itself wants to manipulate, in fact, it can't do it, thousands of judges, they can't lobby. Simon said, adding, "What's more, the Oscars are not that important to me. There have been so many good films over the years, and I'm cheering them on. ”

Jennifer rolled her eyes slightly when she heard her man say so domineering.

Janet tilted her head on Simon's shoulder with a smile, looking like a nymphomaniac who I admire as a man.

As the televised awards show continued, Simon said something else: "I talked to Jim, Jeff, and Steve today, and it was about cash reserves. It's definitely a few months before we go from the collapse of the Nasdaq to the start of our Condor expansion, including the Asian side in the second half of the year. Before that, I would like to set up a third-party accounting team to conduct a thorough audit of the financial position of each company to truly ensure that the cash reserve data we have is true and reliable. ”

This idea was mainly inspired by the bankruptcy cases of large companies such as WorldCom and Enron after the bursting of the new technology bubble.

Although Simon has been very strict in the financial supervision of various companies in the Westeros system over the years, the stall is too big after all, if there is no omission, even Simon himself does not believe it, so he intends to conduct a comprehensive survey of the finances of the entire system.

After Simon said this, Jennifer just smiled and looked at Janet beside the man.

Janet pretended to hesitate and wanted to whet her husband's appetite, but she didn't want Melbourne on the other side to say: "Dad, is it possible for NaNa to come to the United States again, NaNa is the most suitable for this." ”

Jennifer hung her head slightly, holding back her laughter.

Janet pretended to be angry and reached over her man to catch the face of her eldest son on the other side, pinching and pinching as she said, "Thinking about NaNa all day long, am I not good to you?"

Melbourne didn't understand how he had come to suffer such an unwarranted disaster.

What's more, speaking of conscience, in fact, it is quite a precocious five-year-old boy who thinks that this family, NaNa is the best for himself, it is said that he was only a few months old and was left to NaNa by his parents to take him, and then his grandparents, and Aunt Jenny, who was busy with housework all day long in Cape Dumee Manor.

As for his parents, alas, don't talk about it.

Or not......

Fortunately, this time my father finally took a righteous time, and quickly helped to separate his face from his mother's claws, as for the fact that my mother's claws then found my father's waist, it can only be regarded as not seeing.

Janet taught the father and son around her a lesson, and finally reluctantly said: "I've been with Bing recently...... Aunt talk. ”

Simon didn't say anything more.

Melbourne didn't dare to say more.

Jennifer still couldn't help but laugh.

Then when dinner was over, Simon was kicked out of Cape Dume's estate by Janet, presumably the kind that didn't have to come back until Easter Sunday.

It's annoying to see it.

Simon arrived early at the Sunset Tower Hotel, where the Melisandre party would normally be held, and the awards ceremony continued.

As soon as they entered the hotel lobby, several girls sitting in the rest area on one side stood up and walked over, among which a slender and tall girl in a white suspender dress walked in front, and she was a little hesitant after approaching Simon, until the man smiled and opened his arms, and then threw himself into his arms, but it was Zhu Momo.

Simon hugged the girl who obviously felt a lot thinner in his arms, and after a while, the two separated, and found that the girl had mist in her eyes, and said with concern: "What's wrong?"

Zhu Momo tilted his head embarrassedly, wanting to take back his tears, with grievances in his tone: "Simon, I thought you didn't want me anymore"

Simon smiled: "I usually don't take the initiative to dump any girls, they are all dumped kinds." ”

Zhu Momo's head turned slightly, reflecting some of the meanings in the man's words, but he didn't say much. There are too many women around him to count, and it's not a secret, with her identity, she can't mind if she wants to, so she just turned sideways, grabbed the man's arm, and introduced the other women who came over: "Simon, this is my aunt, Mo Wuling." There is also Sister Ren and Ren Jingxi. In addition, this is An Xiaohan, she is my agent in China. ”

In fact, there are a total of five girls, and the last two obvious maids of the Wei family, Zhu Momo did not introduce.

Simon didn't mind the obvious difference in Zhu Momo's words, and shook hands with Mo Wuling with a smile while looking.

Mo Wuling is very recognizable, because she is a little similar to Mo Yiling and even Zhu Momo, who has spoken to Simon, and her soft face makes her more beautiful than Zhu Momo, and wearing a black women's suit at this time makes her feel a little familiar, the only difference is that she is not as tall as Zhu Momo.

Ren Jingxi is a girl with a melon seed face, wearing a ponytail, also wearing a black women's suit, fair skin, slightly shorter than Mo Wuling, and stepping on high heels can only be worth 1.7 meters, but it must also be a tall one in China, compared to Mo Wuling and An Xiaohan's obvious ability, Ren Jingxi's temperament is weak, and there is a bit of obvious bookishness.

By Simon's standards, a score of 80 or more.

The last An Xiaohan, Simon read the information in advance, and at first glance he felt that he was shrewd and capable, with short haircuts, and a temperamental face that was very suitable for being a TV host, but Simon only scored about 75 points here, and he couldn't reach 80 points, because he was too capable, and he lacked a little bit of feminine softness.

With such a simple greeting one by one, Simon turned to Mo Wuling again and said, "You guys go back first, you don't have to wait here." ”

Seeing this young supertycoon in person for the first time, Mo Wuling couldn't bear some thoughts of these days in his mind because of some instinctive restraint, and he just nodded subconsciously when he heard the words. It wasn't until Simon Westeros entered the elevator with his niece and a few other entourages that he reacted.

Alas!

If the eldest sister knew about it, I don't know if she would have beaten herself to death.

It's just that since the last time Zhu Momo insisted on moving back to the courtyard in Mao'er Hutong, Mo Wuling didn't report to her eldest sister as soon as possible, and she knew that she was unconsciously on the niece's thief ship.

Actually, the main thing is, the boat is too comfortable.

Let's just say that the past fashion week, I wish Mo Mo to restart his modeling career, Mo Wuling accompanied the whole process, hard work is really hard, but, from New York to London, from Milan to Paris, clothing, food, housing and transportation, all have been arranged clearly, the residence is a mansion that Mo Wuling never dared to think of so big, and the entry and exit are also valuable luxury cars, in addition, there is a meticulous team of waiters.

Mo Wuling felt more than once that the money his niece earned from running around for a month must not be able to pay even a fraction of the expenses during this time.

Such a luxurious life, once anyone is immersed in it, they can't extricate themselves.

Mo Wuling himself felt a little unable to extricate himself anyway.

Shoot to death, shoot to death.

Thinking so chaotically, seeing that the elevator was closed not far away, Mo Wuling quietly breathed a sigh of relief, and was about to leave first according to a certain man's instructions, only to notice that his college classmate and best friend and colleague at this time were also looking at the elevator in a daze, patted her with a smile, and teased: "Hey, come back to your soul." ”

Ren Jingxi was taken aback, came back to his senses, noticed Mo Wuling's ridiculous smile, his eyes flickered weakly, and he barely calmed down: "We, um, he, let's go back first?"

Mo Wuling didn't think much about it, after all, he was in a similar state just now, so he grabbed Ren Jingxi's arm and said, "Yes, let's go." ”

As she spoke, she didn't forget to greet An Xiaohan next to her, and the three girls left the Sunset Tower Hotel with the other two Wei family maids.

The other side.

Simon took Zhu Momo into the elevator, looked at the increasingly slender figure of the girl next to him again, and said with concern: "Why are you so thin?"

"Because of Fashion Week, you have to go on a diet to keep in shape," Zhu Momo felt the man's concern, his heart was warm, and he couldn't help but have a little invitation and complaint in his words: "I walked 97 shows this fashion week and worked more than 12 hours a day. ”

"It's very powerful, but you can take care of it next, it's not good if it's too thin. ”

"Hmm. ”

"Besides, did you have an awkward relationship with Jian Xin and the two of them?"

Zhu Momo wanted to sue, but he held back and said, "No, actually, it's because of you, we do different things, of course we don't have time to get along." Just like this time, Jian Xin and the others are going to study at Parsons College in New York, and I am returning to China for Chinese opera, so they must be separated. ”

Seeing the girl say this, Simon smiled and nodded slightly, and did not delve into it, but asked again: "How does it feel to be in class in Chinese opera?"

"Actually, I don't want to go to school, but since you, as well as my mother, have asked me to go to Chinese opera, I can only be obedient. ”

I wish Momo the truth.

If it weren't for the fact that her mother and the man next to her had the same opinion, she wouldn't have gone to school.

Fortunately, it is only an audit, and only a professional class.

Otherwise, Zhu Momo, who has been a scumbag since he was a child, would not be able to keep up at all.

"Heh, you are still young now, your life is so long, it is best to experience everything you can experience, otherwise, you will not have a chance to experience it in the future. ”

Simon said it, but he actually thought it was wonderful.

That's the once famous Chinese opera class 96.

However, privately asked people to find a list, and found that the influence of his big butterfly had spread considerably.

Let's just say that in the 96 class of Chinese opera this time, the 'Eight Golden Hairpins' in my memory, there are only two international chapters and Zeng Da Beauty, and even the most outstanding young master Liu among the boys has disappeared without a trace. The 96 class of Beiying next door is also scattered, and there is only one Dongchang factory flower who is familiar, because Chen Changhua not only has the same qualifications as Chen Xingwei and Li Youhu, but also the first student in the professional class, and the other Zhao Feite, Huang Sect Master, etc., were all fanned.

Chatting like this, the elevator quickly came to the bar on the top floor of the Sunset Tower Hotel.

It was about half past eight.

The Oscars at the Holy Civic Auditorium still have half an hour to go, and it will take longer for the guests to get there, but by this time, the bar has already arrived in advance with many superstars and celebrities who did not attend the ceremony. Simon greeted Angela Arentz, who hosted the party, chatted a few words, and then joined the party with Zhu Momo.
