Simon said, "If it's just the two of us, you'll need to call home first and get them ready for ransom." ”

Janet smiled and withdrew her little feet and said, "This is the north, and the mafia should be more active in southern Italy." ”

"That's just relative," Simon said, "It's the same in Milan, and in the fashion industry, models who come to Milan to seek development may be able to escape the Italian government's income tax, but they can't escape the 'gangster tax' that needs to be paid." ”

"In that case, let's take Neil and them, we can really play a shootout when something happens, Neil and Ken are very good marksmanship. ”

Italy does not ban guns, Australia has not banned guns, think about it, most of the Western countries have not banned guns in this era.

Simon hasn't paid much attention to the resumes of Neil Bennett and Ken Dixon, the two veteran Johnston family bodyguards who were first assigned, but he doesn't doubt Janet's statement.

It's just that.

Encounter a shootout.

For the sake of the heart, it is better not to experience such an exciting thing.

Simon has yet to face any real physical threats, but he doesn't want to be like the kidnapping of Heineken president a few years ago before he thinks about his own safety.

"Forget it, call and ask Sophie later to see if there are any fun and safe places to go here in Milan at night. ”

Janet snorted, but didn't wait, just got up and ran to call.

Janet left, and Simon was about to continue flipping through the newspaper in his hand when Jennifer walked over from the villa with a folder in her hand.

After greeting Jennifer who was passing by, Natasha Kinsky, who was wearing a swimsuit on the chaise longue on the other side, nodded to sit down on the edge of Jennifer's chaise longue just now, and said to Simon: "Do you want to read the information about GSM technology now?"

Simon sat up, took the folder from the female assistant's hand, opened it, and asked, "How is the investigation of Nokia?"

"The details are still being gathered, and the general situation is clear," Jennifer said: "Nokia is a very long-established and diversified business giant in Finland, involved in a wide range of fields, including paper, rubber, home appliances, telecommunications, mobile phones, etc. In recent years, Nokia has also struggled as the economic situation of Finland's largest trading partner, the Soviet Union, has continued to deteriorate. Nokia's CEO, Kari Kairamo, shot himself last year because he couldn't bear the pressure of running the business. The new CEO, Seamus Frilatu, has been refining Nokia's business since the beginning of the year, with the telecom and mobile phone divisions among those being sold. It's not difficult for us to get these two businesses. However, Simon, the situation in Eastern Europe is very unstable, and even a war may break out, and the acquisition of a Finnish company directly bordering the USSR is not a rational choice. ”

Simon looked down at the GSM technical data in his hand, and asked with some examination: "If you put aside the political factors, what do you think of me buying this company's telecommunications and mobile phones?"

Jennifer had clearly thought about it and said, "It's not the best, but it's a good choice." The telecommunications industry in most European countries is still in the hands of state-owned enterprises, because the government-designated procurement mode of telecommunications equipment has inhibited the enthusiasm of enterprises for research and development, and has largely limited the technological development of the telecommunications field in these countries. The telecom giants in North America have long been entrenched, and it is very difficult to enter the market. Even in Australia, there is currently only one state-owned telecommunications company. In contrast, countries such as Sweden and Finland in the Nordic countries have long since liberalized the telecommunications sector to private enterprises, adopted a market-oriented free competition mechanism, and did not restrict the participation of foreign capital. At the same time, Finland is a small market, but we can use it to develop the entire European market. ”

Simon nodded with satisfaction and said, "In that case, pass on this information to your father, and let him organize the team to contact Nokia as soon as possible." ”

Jennifer agreed, and said: "Also, the news from Los Angeles that Bertelsmann Music Group has taken over the operation of Alista Records, and they are willing to accept our conditions for financial review and compensation, but they want to resume the sales of the original soundtrack of "Bodyguard" first. ”

Simon vetoed: "Since it has been publicly stated that the sales of the record will not be resumed until this matter is resolved, there is no reason to change it." ”

Jennifer saw that Simon did not let go, nor did she persuade her, so she got up and walked towards the villa again.

After the female assistant left, Simon continued to look through the materials in his hand.

GSM is the abbreviation of 'Global Mobile Communication System', as early as 1983, European countries have set up technical teams to formulate GSM technical standards, but these years have not been implemented, which is obviously due to the state-owned monopoly of the telecommunications industry.

In memory, the reason why Nokia was able to rise was precisely because it took the lead in GSM technology and took the lead in launching the GSM standard digital signaling mobile phone, and Finland was also the first country in the world to establish a GSM network.

Now, even North America is still using the first generation of analog signal communications, and Simon can enter the market at this time, with its own capital and prophetic advantages to occupy more opportunities, so as to share more benefits in the next wave of mobile communications.

After reading more than a dozen pages of documents unconsciously, Janet has not returned.

It's already sunset.

A cool breeze blows from the direction of the Alps in the north.

Simon put the information aside, got up and stretched, noticing that Natasha Kinski was still lazily lying next to him, and walked over with some concern to look down.

After relying on Simon, the mansion is enjoyed by servants, and there is no financial pressure, this woman really has a tendency to live as a cat.

Noticing Simon looking down at herself condescendingly, Natasha Kinski raised her eyelids, but only snorted softly, as if to ask Simon if he was okay and if he was okay and didn't want to enjoy the last touch of the sunset.

Simon looked at the woman and said with a smile: "You have unknowingly heard so many trade secrets, I suddenly wondered, should I kill my mouth?"

Natasha Kinski glanced at Simon disdainfully, and simply turned sideways.

Seeing that the woman ignored him, Simon bent down and reached out and picked her up directly.

Natasha Kinski didn't panic at the moment of the surprise attack, but writhed around, as if looking for a more comfortable position.

Simon came to the edge of the pool with the woman in his arms and gently threw the woman into the water.

There was a thud in the courtyard.

Then there was no movement.

Simon, who originally just wanted to make a joke, looked at the woman who was still sinking to the bottom of the pool and staring at him with wide eyes, looking helpless.

A string of blisters popped up.

Two strings of blisters pop up.

Three strings of blisters pop up.

After a full minute or so, the woman apparently began to drink water, still staring at Simon with wide eyes at the bottom of the pool, and did not mean to get up at all.

Simon originally wanted to see how long Natasha Kinski could last, but suddenly remembered the strong self-destructive tendencies in this woman's bones.

If left unchecked, she could have drowned herself in this pool.

Thinking of this, Simon didn't have time to undress, jumped into the water in his shirt and trousers, reached out and fished out the woman and put it on the edge of the pool.

Holding the edge of the pool out of the pool, Simon, who found Natasha Kinsky's eyes closed and completely motionless, quickly leaned over her and pressed her on her knees.

After a few mouthfuls of water, Natasha Kinski reopened her eyes, feeling that the man was still straining, and grabbed his leg in protest with dissatisfaction.

Simon was even angrier.

It's not so scary to take your own life.

Seeing that the woman had recovered and still had the strength to grab herself, she raised her hand and smacked her buttocks a few times.

With a few snaps, Natasha Kinski snorted and softened, and was then thrown back on the recliner next to her.

Eating painedly, she changed her position and lay on her side, noticing that Simon still had a frightened and angry expression, and the woman had a smug look in her eyes, and she laughed.

Simon was still a little afraid, sat down on the chaise longue next to him, wiped the water stains on his face, took off his soaked shirt and threw it aside, seeing that the woman was smiling heartlessly, and said angrily: "I can't raise you, you can go." ”

"No," Natasha Kinski shook her head, and fearlessly suggested, "You can throw me out." ”

Simon imagined the woman lying in front of her house with her eyes wide open, completely lost her temper, picked up the shirt next to her, and got up and walked towards the villa.

Natasha Kinski was only wearing a swimsuit, he was wet but had to be changed quickly.

Entering the living room, Janet was crooked on the sofa holding a cordless phone and talking to the other side, when she saw Simon coming in wet, she was surprised for a moment, and then stinked at him, and snorted upstairs.

Simon came to the upstairs bedroom, took a simple shower, and was getting dressed, Janet walked in, smiled and asked curiously, "What happened just now?"

"Falling into the water," Simon said perfunctorily, then changed the subject, "Talking to Sophia for so long?"

Janet didn't get to the bottom of it, stepped forward to help Simon sort out the collar of his shirt, and said, "David called and asked if we wanted to go to England this time." ”

Simon remembered that it was David Johnston, Janet's fourth brother.

After completing the filming of "Batman" in April, Simon happened to meet David Johnston to visit his family before leaving Melbourne, and brought a girlfriend who was not recognized by Raymond Johnston. It's just that, considering David Johnston's nerdy spirit, it's still possible to call and greet Jenny, and it's not very reliable to invite them to the UK to play.

Janet helped Simon straighten his collar and said with a smile, "Got it?"

"His girlfriend?"

"Yes, it's Leslie Whitt, and the old man doesn't like her, and thinks she has too much to think about. But I think it's okay, David is so stupid, it's just right to find a smarter wife. ”

"We probably didn't have time to go to the UK this time. ”

Cersei Capital's layout in the U.S. bond market is nearing closing, and the matter is over here, and it will return to New York.

"That's what I told him, I can't go this time. Janet said, finding that Simon was not wearing shoes yet, she walked to the shoe cabinet and picked up a pair of leather shoes and handed them over, saying, "Put the shoes on, and I will go and change my clothes too." Let's go eat first, Sophia will be waiting for us in the city, and we can go to some interesting clubs in the evening. ”
