Chapter 528: Tricks and Farewell to the Wonders of the Past
Chinese civilization has a long history. The oracle bone inscription has been around for about 7,000 years, and the word greed is listed in the Oracle Bone Dictionary. Because the word greedy is composed of four words: "today, shell, wood, forest, and woman".
The original meaning of greed is a scene: in a forest in a season of blue sky and warm spring, a woman sees today's GOU or wood as a treasure.
Greed has been around for more than 7,000 years.
Man is a product of the environment, placed in a natural world, unsupervised, wanton, and bound to become greedy.
And with the habit of greed comes stereotyped thinking.
Andy put his arms around Ivana, who was already asleep, with uncontrollable greed in his eyes, even if he picked up Ivana into the bedroom because of excitement as soon as he got home, he drove all the way, filling up the gas, and still couldn't sleep.
By the cold moonlight, looking at the ceiling, he couldn't get rid of the stunning Italian woman from his mind, as soon as she appeared in the public eye, she was a ripe image, and there was no green girlhood at all. In "The Beautiful Legend of Sicily", the widow who overturned the entire town with her beauty - Monica Bellucci.
Andy retrieved all her information from his mind, and one of the news came to mind, Vincent Casso, a scum who is more shameless than himself, deceived and played with his goddess for 13 years, plus gave birth to two daughters.
Fortunately, it was divorced in the end, but unfortunately it also wasted 13 years of the goddess's good years.
"Now that I've only given birth to a child, I'm still in a hurry, it's time to do something... Blame you for being too beautiful!" Andy slowly closed his eyes that radiated a cold glow, and whispered in an imperceptible voice.
Looking at the extremely ruddy complexion, the smile was extraordinarily bright, and the happy and sweet Ivana waved her hand at the paparazzi who had been shouting her name and taking pictures of her, sipping the red chun, straightening her delicate body, making the upper circumference of the already amazing scale even more proud, and after walking into the CP building with a pair of big long tui, Andy raised the car window.
"Let's go, go to Newsweek Tower. ”
"Good boss. Kenny replied, releasing the handbrake and the car drove off the side of the road.
58th Floor, Newsweek Building.
"Jon, sit down for a moment, I'll be done in a moment. Andy looked up and gestured to the chair across from him, and after finishing his speech to Jon Meacham, he continued to look down at today's briefing.
The little assistant Tori twisted his slender waist and brought in two cups of coffee.
Andy put the briefing aside, turned to Torrey Blake, who was standing beside him, and said, "It's okay, you go out first." ”
The assistant nodded and left, Andy looked at Jon and asked with a serious face, "How are the branches of our weekly magazine in Europe now?"
"It's been working well, and the reporters from the several stations that have been cancelled have been assigned to Europe, which will strengthen our news gathering and influence in Europe. Jon Meacham was a little curious about how the big boss cared about the European branch today.
"And it came to pass that four young and capable journalists were selected from the two sub-stations of France and England, and he was taken ... Andy said as he turned the computer monitor around and asked Jon to look at the picture on it and continued, "There's a French film genius Vincent Cassel staring me to death. ”
Jon Meacham nodded and said that he had written it down, but he was a little puzzled, frowned slightly, and asked: "Boss, there's nothing wrong with staring him to death, but this person doesn't have much newsworthiness, and the only value is his wife Monica Bellucci... ”
Andy rolled his eyes in his heart, waved his hand to interrupt Jon's words, and said noncommittally: "What I said about staring at death is 24 hours a day, don't be caught by him and be followed, and... Forget it, you arrange it yourself, remember, don't let go of any time and place tracking, if necessary, you can use some unconventional means to get information, if they find a news point, get a photo or audio recording to end it. ”
"News, is it fishy?" Jon Meacham was a little confused.
"We'll know when the time comes. Andy shook his head with a smile, and did not solve the mystery, anyway, he had his subordinate employees working for him, and this kind of resource advantage, if not used, is completely tyrannical.
Jon Meacham left with the assignment assigned by the big boss and his mind full of doubts.
Andy's eyes narrowed slightly, touching his chin, revealing a sneer.
Now Andy Smith perfectly interprets the sentence: the combination of selfishness and greed will hatch many poisonous snakes that harm others!
Knock knock...
"Boss, it's almost time. The little assistant, who was originally only wearing a half-sleeved chiffon drape white shirt, put on a black slim suit, but it still couldn't cover her graceful figure.
"Hmm. Andy took a file bag from a drawer and handed it to Tori, and the assistant took it and put it in the black briefcase he was carrying.
Andy straightened his tie and put on his suit while Tori was serving, "Let's go." ”
Located in the Marvel Entertainment Group building at 417 Fifth Avenue in Midtown Manhattan, Andy walked into the lobby with a group of negotiators led by Alvettre who had been waiting for a long time.
After shaking hands with the representative of Bank of America, facing Marvel CEO Ikpilmut, the two shook hands together, and Andy said with a relaxed smile on his face: "I wish us a happy cooperation in advance, let's go, let's go through the last step." ”
Ike also showed a relaxed smile on his face, nodded, and walked side by side with Andy to the elevator, the team of more than a dozen people attracted frequent sideways attention from the people in the hall, most of them were Marvel employees, everyone knew that the young man at the head was Andy Smith, and after today, the youngest billionaire is their boss.
The atmosphere in the conference room was very harmonious and relaxed, the troublesome things had been solved, and although everyone was still sitting opposite each other in clear camps, they were just chatting and waiting for the final confirmation of the contract by the lawyers of both sides.
The door to the conference room was pushed open, and Stan Lee, a gray-haired, bearded man, walked in with a couple of Marvel executives.
Andy stood up with a smile and reached out to shake Stan Lee's hand, and the two sat down again.
"Andy, can you show me your strategic layout plan today?" Stan Li asked as soon as he sat down.
"Of course ... Smiled and nodded, reached out and took the briefcase handed by the assistant behind him and put it on the table, patted it with his hand, and said, "It's all inside! ”
"Well, you're really... Forget it, Ike has notified all the middle-level and above managers, after signing the contract and the money arrives, we can directly hold a meeting, your first meeting as the boss of Marvel Entertainment Group. Stan Lee was a little speechless for the young man in front of him, who always had a faint smile and a harmless appearance, and he didn't want to see the completed strategic plan until he signed and completed the acquisition at the end.
"I'm looking forward to it very much!" Andy said with a smile, and then focused on the lawyers on both sides gathered on the side, waiting quietly, and feeling a little excited, this big gold mine is about to become his own!
Andy doesn't know how the giant Disney will feel when DC's old Batman and the reboot version of Superman succeed and his Iron Man is a big success.
Do you want to cooperate with yourself, or do you have the money to stone yourself to death?
To be honest, Andy himself can't guarantee that he will not be tempted in the face of overwhelming huge acquisitions, and these giant companies are really crazy to smash people with money.
3 billion, 4 billion may not be tempting, but what about 9 billion, 10 billion?
Andy's thoughts flew farther and farther, and he didn't know where he flew, until he was gently pulled down by Tori behind him, and was pulled back to reality, embarrassed to find that everyone's eyes were focused on his face.
"I'm a little excited, and as a big superhero fan, I'm in a pretty good mood right now... I was nervous and excited, I'm sorry, I was a little distracted just now. Andy began to talk nonsense, easing his embarrassment.
Everyone pursed their lips and nodded, indicating their understanding, after all, Marvel's 68-year-old comic book company has cultivated several generations of loyal fans.
Andy likes to use the tried-and-true counterattack routine of fans to realize their dreams to add to the legendary Xing of his acquisition of Marvel. He understands that the media likes this kind of gimmick the most, so that he and Marvel can be hyped up, so that the American people will continue to pay attention to it and warm up for the upcoming Iron Man.
With the Marvel comics drifting away, Marvel, which has ushered in a new boss, is beginning to prepare for rebirth.
