Chapter 1177 James's Blue Mountain Coffee
Under the windowsill of yesterday, the years flowed into a faint moonlight, the stars in the sky were sprinkled, and the memories condensed into a cold autumn frost. The most ruthless is always the family affection of the wealthy family, and in the face of absolute interests, anyone has become a jackal-like heart. Wendy Murdoch looked at the white moonlight outside the window, gritted his teeth fiercely and said: "Don't think that if you sign a prenuptial contract, you can restrain me, even if it is for my children, I have to fight, I want to see how far these two bastards will fight when James drinks Elizabeth." Wendy Murdoch's mind is very dark, there is no way to sign such a prenuptial agreement, it is destined that this huge news group will have no share of its own, if you don't fight for some for your daughter, there will be no way to live this day. In fact, whether Elizabeth wins this time or James can win steadily, the result is the infighting of the Murdoch family. This Murdoch family has a tradition of infighting, not only are the two people eyeing each other, but there is also a platform Lachlan that has been assigned, that is the real crown prince, is Lachlan really willing to let News Corp out like this, that is the real dog.
Anyway, Wendy Murdoch is now paying attention to this matter with the mentality of watching a good show. If you want to talk about infighting, it is still Wendi Murdoch's wit, the tradition of Chinese infighting was played very well by her, and she revealed to James that Elizabeth colluded with Matthew Floyd to take the shooting of Zijin in News Corporation.
At this moment, after James heard the news, he was so angry that he threw a custom-made mobile phone directly on the ground, smashed it, and the housekeeper was so frightened that he hurriedly rushed in, for fear that there would be some danger.
As a steward, you cannot come in without being called. This is the minimum standard of a housekeeper, but if you hear anything wrong, don't come in and care, this housekeeper has also done it.
At this moment, what the housekeeper saw was the angry James, and he had never seen the second young master so angry again. The whole face is as ugly as if it had been splashed with a layer of ink. What the hell is that James doesn't want the butler to know too much, and waves his hand, signaling that there is something going on on his side.
This housekeeper was sent by his father, although he meant to assist him in his work, but in fact, he came to supervise himself, but he only wanted to see if he was disobedient. Therefore, there are some things that James does not want to involve this butler.
Seeing James' expression. Ye Ming smiled and turned the Blue Mountain coffee in his hand, the mellow aroma of coffee wafting in the air, refreshing. Ye Ming said unhurriedly: "James, what is the matter, to make you so angry, does it mean that your eldest brother has another moth?"
Although Lachlan was dispatched, James believed that there was a real threat to him. It's just this big brother, if you say that your position in News Corp. is not stable for a day. That big brother is likely to make a comeback.
Therefore, at such a time, just like Lachlan, who is a big brother, always pays attention to his brother's every move, James is also very concerned about his big brother's actions. There aren't many things that make James so angry, and Lachlan is one.
Seeing that Murdoch handed over the two movies "The Day After Tomorrow" Knot and "I Robot" to James and Elizabeth, the eldest son of the Murdoch family. actually said that he didn't get any money, doesn't this mean that he is completely isolated, and if he wants to inherit Murdoch's family property in the future, then it will be more difficult at this time. So, on such a question. Lachlan's use of some means is normal.
James said fiercely: "It's not my eldest brother, my eldest brother is still not so stupid, now my father is destined to dislike him, he can only lurk, and now he will definitely annoy my father, he has no chance at all."
I just received the news that it was my good eldest sister, Elizabeth, who actually said that she was collaborating with outsiders and calculating the News Corporation, this thing is really a strange news in the world, does she know that her surname is Murdoch?"
said yes, even if it was said that Elizabeth and James were in the ring, but James didn't think there was anything wrong with it, in the face of a behemoth like News Corp., the media empire, if it was said that it was not moving, there would be a problem.
But he always thought that it was just his own housework, so although he was a good big sister in the competition, he never got angry again. This time, his eldest sister actually turned her elbow outward, which was one of the reasons why James was most angry.
Luo Tian was stunned for a moment and said: "Calculate the news group, it's interesting, can it be said that your eldest sister doesn't know that she can't find herself comfortable doing this, and your father will turn a blind eye to such a thing?"
Murdoch, the old fox, is very cunning, and he knows best what kind of virtue his daughter is, so in such a situation, in fact, Murdoch should have known, but he didn't care, which proves that in such a situation, Murdoch acquiesced to Elizabeth's approach.
Otherwise, a huge news group, James knew the news, and Murdoch, as the emperor of the media empire, actually said that there was no reaction at all, which is unscientific.
Sure enough, James snorted and said, "My father doesn't care much about the little things of the group, and this movie may be important to us, but for my father, it's just a small business." Give us money and let us operate. The key is what my eldest sister wants to do, this is the rhythm of looking for death.
I heard that they were going to divorce and would get married this year, and I didn't believe that the robbery would do such a thing, but I didn't expect it, my eldest sister hasn't married yet, but it's already an elbow turned out. β
James was angry that his eldest sister was actually helping outsiders deal with him, which was what he was most sad about.
Ye Ming pondered for a moment and said, "You're running away." β
James was stunned for a moment and looked at Ye Ming and said, "What did you say this?" Regarding Ye Ming's words, James did seem to have a place to escape.
Ye Ming said very politely: "It's impossible for your father not to know about this matter, it can't be later than you know, otherwise he won't be able to master a huge news empire."
But why he didn't say anything, it's because he has his own opinion on the matter. He asked the two of you to pit against each other, just to see who has more means, and now he is not willing to interfere with your operation, what he wants is the result, and the result is actually the most important thing, as a businessman, the most important thing is to see how to get enough benefits.
Therefore. He doesn't look at the process, he looks at the result. I think you're very clear about that, but there are some things you don't want to say. β
Family affairs, even if Murdoch is the emperor of the media empire, he is also a lawsuit, and he even cares about the eldest son who was assigned, not to mention his eldest daughter.
It's not that Murdoch doesn't know, it's that he pretends not to know. James reminisced, albeit a little unwillingly. But he also said helplessly: "What you said is not wrong, in fact, my father has always felt that he owes my eldest sister, at that time Lachlan and I were still relatively young, my father was busy with work, although he did not miss us in terms of money, but in my memory, my father can be said to rarely go home."
And Lachlan and I basically grew up with my eldest sister.
Once. The three of us got lost and ran into bad guys. It was my eldest sister who desperately rescued the two of us, but in the end, the eldest sister lay in the hospital for more than a month.
Therefore, my father has always felt that he owes my eldest sister in his heart, and my eldest sister actually had some problems from that time, the doctor said. The eldest sister subconsciously refuses to grow up, even if he is seventy or eighty, his mental age will stay there, therefore, my eldest sister does things. Sometimes it's really hard to understand. β
Thinking of the benefits of the eldest sister Elizabeth, at this time James was also sour in his heart, the three sisters and brothers at that time had a very good relationship, unlike the life and death of the family property now, although it is not to the point of not getting along with each other in old age, but to be honest, James himself feels that it is a little impossible for his three sisters and brothers to go back to the past.
At this time, after James sighed for a while, he glanced at Luo Tian and said: "Let you listen to jokes, these things have been held in my heart for many years, and I have never had a good person to confide in. If I don't compete, I'll be eliminated, in fact, I can't help it. β
Rich people are like this, there is family affection, no family says there is no family affection, but in such a situation, it is difficult to say how much family affection is and how much it plays a role.
And this kind of thing, in fact, is destined not to be said casually, if it weren't for the right people, James would not have said this kind of thing at this time. Because Ye Ming's qualifications are similar to his, he founded Brilliant Network from scratch, and this ability is not something ordinary people have.
And Ye Ming has always been James's teacher and friend, Ye Ming's words, after being verified in the end, are always very prescient, so at this time, James will say more.
Ye Ming smiled and said with a cup of coffee: "James, this thing is normal, any person's success requires hardship, just like the cup of coffee in our hands." Originally, they were coffee beans that needed to be dried. And it's sun exposure, usually this time takes four weeks, otherwise, the taste of the coffee will be affected.
Then store it, take it out for roasting when needed, and then grind it into powder, any of these steps are not up to standard, then it is impossible to become the aroma of this coffee. In fact, being a human being is the same, people who have not suffered hardships, even if they succeed, it is a fluke and will not last long. Just like this coffee, each ripe coffee bean will be selected, exposed to the sun, and roasted again and again.
Milling, but after all this, it doesn't mean that all coffee beans can become sweet coffee. It's like saying that every successful person has to go through hard trials again and again, and those who go through hard trials may not necessarily succeed. Sometimes, God is so unfair, and if you give, you may not succeed. β
These words made James's heart throb for a while, yes, his eldest brother is such a person, and he was also tested by his father, but in the end he was assigned, that is, he did not succeed.
James was reluctant to continue this heavy topic, smiled and said: "What we drink now is Blue Mountain coffee, Jamaica's real Blue Mountain coffee, I serve my father has a coffee plantation in Jamaica, in ordinary places, but it is not easy to drink this pure Blue Mountain coffee." β
Ye Ming was very surprised, shrugged his shoulders and said, "Really? To be honest, if you say that this is a real Blue Mountain coffee, then at this time, I can only say sorry, the taste of real Blue Mountain coffee is not like this, the taste is not right, although the imitation is very like, I think, this should be Blue Mountain blended coffee, a kind of imitation Blue Mountain coffee made of 30% Blue Mountain coffee and 70% Jamaican Alpine coffee, although this is to imitate the taste of Blue Mountain coffee as much as possible, but, compared with the real top Blue Mountain coffee, the taste is still a little worseγ β
James was stunned for a moment, he couldn't believe it, picked up the coffee again, took a sip and said, "Isn't this the real Blue Mountain coffee, it's blended? β
The butler came back to him, stood in front of James and said politely, "Sir, what do you command?" β
James was a little annoyed and said, "Didn't I tell you to give me real Blue Mountain coffee?" But, my friend said, this is a Blue Mountain blend, a blend of Blue Mountain coffee and Jamaican Alpine coffee, is it true that our Murdoch family has degenerated enough to use it as a fake to fool the guests?"
This charge is not small, and when the butler heard this, he was immediately frightened, and his face was pale, God, am I dreaming?
Thinking of this, the housekeeper glanced at Ye Ming, a friend of Young Master James, it should be the Asian in front of him, can he drink Blue Mountain coffee? )
