Chapter 773: The ban is lifted

When I dreamed about it, it seemed like a long, long time ago.

Since he was a child, he was much taller than his peers, and he was inevitably out of place with the people around him, and he was often ridiculed as a 'big man' and the like, so he had no friends, and occasionally some teachers suspected that he had an intellectual problem, and he was still in the lower grades when he grew so big, so he worked hard quietly and got good grades, but it was taken for granted.

My brother once beat a classmate who laughed at her, but she was called a parent, her father apologized to the teacher, apologized to the parents of her classmates, all kinds of tosses, and when she went back, she used a belt to pump her brother until he couldn't get out of bed.

As a result, the character became more and more silent, and he was used to dealing with many things with silence.

When I was eight years old, I finally found the direction of my life, basketball.

One of her physical education teachers came to the door in person to explain to her parents that she could practice basketball and participate in the game or even join the national team to serve the motherland, and her father immediately paid attention to it, thinking that this was a good way out for her, and spared no effort to create various conditions for her.

At the age of 18, he finally joined the national basketball team as he wished.

IN FACT, THE MOST GRATIFYING THING FOR THE FAMILY IS THAT SHE HAS NOT CONTINUED TO BE 188CM. No matter how high it is, I can't find my boyfriend.

Then there was the violent social unrest.

The ideals and honors of the past have become a thing of the past in a blink of an eye, her father is unemployed, her brother is retired, her sister has dropped out of school, and she herself has no whereabouts, even if it is her mother's job, the salary is released for several months, and the family is struggling to maintain, and even begins to go hungry.

Until last year.

Once upon a time, a person in charge of the team contacted someone to hire a group of female bodyguards, and she didn't want to get a job, so she agreed, and then found that it was not easy to get this job, and some team members she knew participated in the test together, but she was the only one who could pass this level.

And that's not the end of it.

After another three months of intensive training, she also learned that the person she might serve in the future was the Westeros family.

That's right.

That's it, Simon Westeros.

Not to mention anything else, just three months of training and a monthly subsidy of $200 made her feel like she had to get this job no matter what. 200 US dollars, not only alleviated the family's plight, but also was used by parents to help other relatives.

During the same period, 60 people selected from thousands of people to participate in the training were all in this way.

Knowing that only half of them could stay at most, some of them had other thoughts, and then the two team members who slept with the instructor were expelled together with the instructor, and the instructor was also taken away by the police in public, and later I heard that they were quickly sentenced to 10 years, and the two team members did not receive any additional punishment, but they obviously lost the most precious opportunity in their lives.

After three months of training, only 23 people remained, and 37 were eliminated.

When the results were announced, many people cried on the spot, and one of the eliminated team members fainted directly. She didn't cry at the time, but after celebrating at home that night, she lay in bed and lost sleep all night.

He was soon sent to protect the six girls in the villa south of the city of Rivany.

It is said that they are all Simon Westeros girls.

According to what was once said in the textbooks, it is very standard to be a degenerate and rotten big capitalist.

should be brought down.

However, with a monthly salary of $1,000, as a colleague said, Kuchma's bodyguards don't necessarily have such a high salary and get so much money, and Simon Westeros will knock down whoever she wants.

Deep down, she actually felt the same way.

So the first time I saw him, he told her to wash up and wait for him on the bed, and she did so.

In fact, it is mentally prepared.

Evil capitalists, as they should, of course.

Then, he didn't do anything that time, and her salary rose from $1,000 a month to $200,000 a year.

I still don't know how to spend so much money.

I just felt that I had sold him completely, although the girl A who made her a little scared said that she could choose to leave freely after a year, but she didn't think about leaving, not because she coveted $200,000 a year, but instinctively felt that she had sold herself.

Be trustworthy.

I don't know when the unconscious dream turned into a scattered thought when I woke up, and finally opened my eyes, everything from last night quickly rushed into my mind, on the soft big bed, she was leaning sideways on the side of the man lying on her back at this time, her chin was against his shoulder, and she was still holding the man's arm in her arms, very intimate.

Also, the physical abnormalities after the first time.

Worried about disturbing him, although he woke up, he didn't dare to move, just looked at the man's close side face like a thief, and his breathing became cautious.

This is the man of his own.

Well, no, she's just one of the many women of this evil capitalist who may be forgotten by him in less than a year.

Thinking of this, I was inexplicably a little lost.

Remembering last night again.

When he came back from the party, he saw her, and as a matter of course, he asked her to go upstairs and put him in the bathwater, and then, not understanding anything, he just stiffly obeyed and let him do it, and gritted his teeth and did not dare to make a sound, for fear of disturbing his interest.

Afterward.

It seems that he called it 'Little Wood'.

Well.

Sure it's not a 'big wood'.

She could feel that the title was completely different from the 'big man' she was ridiculed for when she was a child, and it had a different meaning that she couldn't quite understand. In short, she only felt that after hearing it, there was something sweet in her heart.

I don't know if he seems to have woken up and forgotten.

Confused, I don't know how long I looked at him, the faint morning light outside the window came in, the man's body moved, as if he was about to wake up, she quickly closed her eyes and pretended to be asleep.

The arm that was holding him was withdrawn, and the man quickly leaned over and kissed her on the cheek.

Men's lips are hot.

Then I felt that my heart was warm.

Sensing that he should start dressing, she also pretended to be awake and opened her eyes, sat up carefully, hesitated, and did not deliberately pull the quilt to hide her body. The man's gaze turned to her, and then he smiled comfortably, "Morning." ”

Hurriedly responded: "Morning." ”

said that he took the initiative to move forward, and his voice was small: "I, come to help you." ”

"No," Simon looked at Eve, whose cheeks were still flushed, and refused with a smile: "You can continue to sleep, you can get up whenever you want, you don't need to work these days, have a good rest." ”

The man said and reached over and pressed on her shoulder, and she obediently lay down again, but her eyes were still quietly locked on him, and when he looked over, he quickly dodged again. It wasn't until the man left the master bedroom after washing up that she completely relaxed and fell back asleep.

The time is Saturday, January 28 on the Ukrainian side.

Seven o'clock in the morning.

Simon went downstairs, and the waitresses in the villa had already gotten up early to start busy.

Came to the gym, jogged on the treadmill for less than ten minutes, Celia Miller, who was wearing a women's exercise suit, also walked in, the two greeted, Celia turned on the treadmill next to her, and said while jogging with Simon: "Tymoshenko's suggestion last night, what do you think?"

Simon shook his head: "It's not good, if it's not necessary, don't contact those two people in the future." ”

At a party at Sergei Komorov's house last night, Yulia Tymoshenko, who came to Rivne Oblast with Ukrainian Energy Minister Lazarenko, proposed to Simon that Westeros invest in the energy company 'Unified Energy of Ukraine' under the name of the Tymoshenko family.

In Simon's memory, it was with this company that Tymoshenko, relying on the support of Lazarenko, monopolized the gas supply of the whole of Ukraine in the following years, earning huge profits.

The unbridled monopoly of a country's natural gas supply by a single company was not destined to last long, and Lazarenko's swift downfall in 1997 and the seizure of the Tymoshenko family business by the Ukrainian government were largely due to this.

Judging from the information in her hands, Tymoshenko is definitely a very powerful woman, compared to the greedy Lazarenko, this woman probably knows that her own business cannot last long, so she tried to join Rasimon.

Moreover, it seems to have a monopoly on the supply of gas to the whole of Ukraine, and the Ukrainian United Energy Company will eventually have to import gas from Russia.

The company wanted to be its own business, but it simply didn't have that much money to support its expansion.

Historically, in order to get Russia to ease the payment deadlines for the multibillion-dollar debt of Ukraine's United Energy Company, Tymoshenko has repeatedly elaborately dressed up and then held 'intimate' consultations with Russian energy oligarchs.

During last night's party, Simon also received a private business card quietly stuffed by Tymoshenko with a phone number.

Something goes without saying.

If there is a world-class super plutocracy backed by the Westeros system, not only will the shortage of funds faced by the Ukrainian Unified Energy Company be solved, but Simon, a big backer with strong influence in the US government, will definitely surpass Pavlo Lazarenko's strength.

Simon is very fond of women with outstanding abilities and strong personalities.

With the exception of Black Widow, though.

Such a woman who is sometimes pro-Russian and sometimes pro-American lacks her firm position and wavering, even if she understands that this is the helplessness of the little people in the big game, Simon is too lazy to have too much to do with the other party.

As for the companies involved in each other, this is even more unlikely.

Simon's original idea of planning and operating Ukraine was to not involve the sensitive energy industry as much as possible, let alone monopolize a country's natural gas supply, which would make the Westeros system a thorn in the side of many powerful people in Ukraine who covet this piece of fat.

When Tymoshenko made contact with Simon last night, Celia was also nearby.

Hearing the other party's suggestion, Celia was actually a little moved, and made a small plan in private, but at this time, she didn't expect the man's veto to be so simple, after thinking about it, she said: "Simon, even if we don't take a stake in Tymoshenko's company, we can increase investment in natural gas, which is a good business in Ukraine." ”

Because of the cold winter weather and the fact that it is on the Russian gas pipeline to Europe, Ukraine's annual gas consumption is very large.

Related businesses, naturally, are also very profitable.

"Sergey is already doing it, he bought a gas company at the end of last year, and in the coming years we are expected to control gas supplies in the Rivne region, and that's enough," Simon said. Xili, our roots in Ukraine are actually not very deep, so at this stage, try not to mix things that may offend most of the local forces in Ukraine, and natural gas happens to be the most untouchable item. ”

Celia nodded, but noticed another meaning in Simon's tone: "Simon, then, what about the future?"

Simon shrugged his shoulders slightly: "What will happen in the future, I will talk about it in the future." And, as I told you, I don't intend to get much economic benefit from this country, I just want to make sure that there is a private army here that belongs to the Westeros system, and the more volatile and degraded the country is, the better it is for us. ”

Celia agreed, and remembered one more thing: "Simon, Washington has been planning a secret military operation recently, I don't know the specifics. However, Philippe sent me a message that there was an intention to secondment a UFMS team to Serbia, and I said that I would like to ask your opinion first. ”

The dissolution of Yugoslavia between the Mediterranean Sea and the Black Sea in 1992 was due to the fact that it involved the sensitive land oil corridor from the Middle East to Europe, and the United States made a lot of arrangements in this region in order to maintain its petrodollar hegemony.

The Westeros system's private military company in North America, MCSS, has already cooperated with the U.S. Department of Defense last year, so it has also obtained a talisman from the U.S. government.

This time, the Ministry of Defense wants to draw people from the UFMS on the Ukrainian side, apparently intending to engage in some small actions that will not involve the Washington authorities.

Since it has benefited from cooperation with Washington, it is inevitable to cooperate with the authorities.

Simon thought about it for a moment and said, "I need to see the detailed information, and in addition, the corresponding endorsements." ”

Although he is willing to 'contribute to the country', Simon is absolutely unwilling to 'take the blame for the country'. Simon also needs to make sure Washington doesn't scapegoat the UFMS rollout if things mess up.

Celia knew what Simon meant, and nodded, "I understand, boss." ”

The two chatted and jogged together for more than half an hour, Simon took a shower and changed clothes, and went downstairs to the restaurant.

Today is still a day full of schedules.

In the morning, it is necessary to rush to the UFMS military base, and as the ultimate control of this private military force, it is necessary to be in front of the soldiers frequently. In the afternoon, I will discuss with the government officials of the Rivne region about the planning of a series of cooperation projects such as the "Nokia Factory" and the "Military Theme Park", and in the evening, I will have a banquet for the core of the Westeros system on the Ukrainian side.

After breakfast, he left the villa in the south of the city and rushed to the UFMS military base north of Rivni, Simon was also listening to Girl A's report on the affairs of the Westeros system along the way.

On Friday afternoon, on the East Coast of the United States, both houses of Congress finally completed their votes to lift the 'media integration ban', and the relevant bill has been sent to the White House.

There will be no surprises, and Clinton will sign his name to the bill next week.

In Simon's view, the repeal of this bill, which restricts the inability of the American film and television industry to merge with each other, is actually equivalent to declaring that the three traditional old American television networks ABC, CBS and NBC have entered a state of 'for sale'.

In the past, the three old TV networks have merged with major Hollywood studios in recent years to form a larger-scale media giant.

This time, a lot has changed in history.

The other six Hollywood majors, which have been severely weakened by Daenerys Entertainment, simply do not have the strength to merge the three major television networks. On the other hand, it is also not so easy for the three major TV networks to annex the big Hollywood studios, because the seven major film companies already have big owners for the time being, and they will not be transferred in the short term.

The biggest benefit of this situation is that it can reduce the resistance of Daenerys Entertainment Group to acquire one of the three major television networks.

Because the chances of a competitor appearing in the acquisition process are very small.

After all, not counting FOX, which is certainly not for sale, there are also three TV networks.

If the Westeros system has its eye on one or the other, even if someone else wants to buy the network, it is unlikely that they will compete with Daenerys Entertainment for the same goal.

On the other hand, because Daenerys Entertainment's current strength is really too strong, if it wants to expand further, the pressure of anti-monopoly review will also be greatly increased.

Of course, none of this will affect Simon's plans.

Hearing Girl A talk about this, Simon directly dialed Amy Pascal's number in Los Angeles directly from the satellite phone in the car, and asked the other party to start preparing for the acquisition plan immediately.
