"Cultural relics are the testimonies of historical civilization, the record of every stage of human development, the crystallization of wisdom, and priceless treasures, whether they are national cultural relics or not, everyone has the obligation to protect them from harm. History cannot repeat itself, only protection can be passed on. ”

In the returning car, Andy put his arm around Lima, his expression was serious, and he said righteously, maybe a little shameless, but the reality is like this, whether it is Ah or Yi, they have lost the ability to protect them.

Andy's warehouses are really just a drop in a bucket of water, and the looting of antiquities in Argentina and Iraq is so common that digging for antiques is like digging potatoes for the locals: harvest them, then sell them.

At the same time, it was accompanied by more serious chaos, and even many people were murdered or beaten to death with sticks when arguing about who should own the relics, and all kinds of black and black were staged every day on the black market along the border...

Large quantities of rare works of art are secretly transported into the United Kingdom and the United States for sale, and their sales channels are even more diverse, through merchants, with the help of the Internet, and even on the spot in trucks. It is said that there are no less than 10,000 artifacts for sale on eBay.

Not to mention some rare cultural relics that have been damaged by humans and destroyed during transportation, there are countless of them.

It's not that Lima didn't guess that there might be some problems with the origin of these relics, but so what, just like her man said, after all, someone needs to protect them, as for the rest, she doesn't care, she knows that her man has this hobby, and it is enough to have this ability.

Back at home, Lima watched Andy open the suitcase and pour out the various colored gems from the black velvet bags, a pair of gray-green eyes radiated a dazzling light, the corners of his mouth turned up, and he screamed excitedly.

Ruby, sapphire, emerald, aquamarine, zircon, citrine, epidote...

Although the size varied, it was enough to dazzle people, and Lima picked up a blood-red ruby the size of a thumb nail and looked at it with obsessive eyes.

Sure enough, women have dragon blood, and the shining stone has the most deadly allure for them.

The woman who is completely in XF goes crazy, it is undoubtedly a very terrible thing, the wolf hall transforms, and the gen is deep-rooted, until death...

At 8 o'clock in the morning of the next day, Andy yawned a little tiredly, lifted the quilt with sleepy eyes, and walked into the bathroom.

While taking a shower, Andy was nostalgic for those big long tui, tsk, wild horses leaping a thousand lines!

Andy finished taking a shower, walked out of the bathroom with a bath towel, changed his clothes, leaned over and kissed Lima on the forehead with his hair scattered and still asleep, and quietly walked out of the bedroom.

When the maid saw Andy walking downstairs, she immediately brought a cup of coffee, "Sir, it's this morning's newspaper and Newsweek, breakfast will be ready soon." ”

"Thank you. Andy said lightly, took a stack of newspapers and periodicals, and took the lead in opening the latest issue of Newsweek, the cover of this issue is the French political group portrait, and the report is naturally the French political scandal in the notebook.

Of course, in order not to completely become an enemy in the eyes of the French and become an undesirable part, Newsweek still slightly restrained the proportion of exposure, and replaced the names of key figures involved in corruption, extortion and other serious illegal incidents with letters.

This is also to avoid, because there is no evidence to prove whether the other party is guilty to avoid being bitten by the party and suing the newspaper for defamation.

Since the British came up with a new rule of 'suing for defamation, no money if you can't win', it can be regarded as completely detonating the resentment of major celebrities, celebrities, and politicians in the Western world against the media who once hacked them, and began to go to the UK to fight lawsuits, and for a while, some media were embarrassed.

Of course, the most unfortunate is the British Fleet Street, followed by the multinational media such as "Newsweek", if there is not enough evidence, making up stories or something, it is easy to provoke SAO, so now many media when reporting some scandals, they do not have real names, so that readers and parties can be seated together.

Andy believes that this issue of "Newsweek" will be a global hit, this is not the content of those gossip tabloids made up nonsense, about the affair of French President Lao Sa, no matter how detailed, even his ex-wife ran away from home twice and eloped with someone There is a detailed description, almost completely turning over Lao Sa's private life.

Not to mention the events of other French political figures, it is almost a special issue that introduces the wonderful and chaotic private lives of French politicians to the world, and the details are almost impossible for those French bigwigs who read this issue of Newsweek.

Even if the French people are very tolerant of this kind of scandal in their private lives, they can't be calm when they see that the officials they elected are like a ghost party, and the chaos is staggering.

Nima, a beautiful minister, almost has a tui with several cabinet members, and even President Lao Sa is a guest of the scene, this Nima is a bit of a pole vault in the toilet, too much!

Wow, wow-

The whole world was in an uproar, and then there was laughter, the British almost laughed crazy, all the media, the Internet began to frantically complain and ridicule the French, the American media, the German media, and even Italy, which made a model without clothes a minister, also turned on the mockery mode and joined in the fun.

This has allowed the world to get a rare and precious moment of relaxation in the panic of the raging financial turmoil, and gossip has temporarily replaced anxiety and panic.

Andy knew that soon, his phone would get busy, and just as he expected, his phone started ringing just after breakfast and walking on the still-green lawn in the front yard of the main house.

Old Smith's laughter was very hearty and happy, laughing about the worries of his 'French friends', hoping that Newsweek would not leak out certain things...

And then there was Paulson...

General Electric...

Goldman...

Finally, Andy waited for the person he most wanted to contact and said please call, Vivendi Group.

When it comes to Vivendi, the French water company, many people may be a little unfamiliar, but Havas News Agency, Blizzard, Universal Pictures, I believe many people are familiar with it, yes, the above three companies are subsidiaries of Vivendi.

At the same time, this company is also a standard dick company, and what they like most is to play the "capital game". Frequent splits, restructurings, and cash-outs make the acquired companies miserable, but for Vivendi, money is the last word.

After the merger of NBC and Universal Pictures, Vivendi held 20% of NBCUniversal's shares, and this time Andy's merger, the French were very chicken thieves who did not keep clamoring to sell their shares as before, but procrastinated and did not express their position, which made General Electric, which hoped to persuade them to buy the 20%, and then negotiated with Andy, was very annoyed.

Andy naturally knew GE's cautious thoughts, but what made Andy depressed was that neither GE nor his people could pry open the gap from the French of the chicken thief, and this group of French guys were ready to wait for the price to sell.

Neither Andy nor General Electric wanted to be slaughtered by Vivendi, and now both sides didn't want to deal with the French, but as shareholders, they had to bring this group of bastards with them when negotiating.

This group of French people also saw what Andy and GE meant, they were ready to let Andy complete the merger and acquisition first, and then clean them up after turning back, Vivendi was originally a good player at playing the capital game, and he also conducted a very in-depth investigation and understanding of Andy Smith, so he naturally knew that this young man's methods were vicious, and he really had to wait until Andy Smith became the owner of NBCUniversal, I am afraid that they Vivendi would become a beef on the board and let this young man slaughter.

For a group company like Vivendi, Andy only needs two tricks to play their YU immortal YU death, financing additional issuance of diluted shares, all kinds of losses, and finding reasons not to pay dividends for several years in a row...

If he takes the initiative to come to the door, I am afraid that he will be stabbed against General Electric, and Vivendi, who is thinking about how to find a step and not let himself suffer, happened to receive a call from the politician they funded.

As soon as he heard that he was asking Andy Smith to please, Vivendi's CEO was secretly refreshed, and the steps were there, and without saying a word, he found Andy's phone and called.
