Chapter 399: There's always a lot of surprises
"Shhh Pen | fun | pavilion www. biquge。 info。。 Don't make a fuss, you watch your TV, I write my novels, you have weak legs like this, and you still tease me, haven't you eaten enough?"
Andy stopped typing, tightened his legs, and watched a pair of white jade feet fixed by his legs, and the red nail polished toes on the jade feet were still teasing dishonestly.
Hearing her boyfriend's warning, Ivana spat out her fragrant tongue and struggled to retract her long legs.
On the sofa in the living room, Andy and Ivana lay opposite each other, Andy continued to write his novel with a notebook, Ivana only wore a large white shirt of Andy, and a pair of slender and white legs were exposed.
Angrily covered her with the blanket, which made her dizzy, Andy closed the notebook, for more than an hour, he didn't write a few words at all, and every time Ivana would come over and tease him naughtily, or use her long legs to dangle in front of his eyes.
"Say, what do you want to do? You won't let me go to the study, let me accompany you in the living room, you're like this again, keep teasing me, you know, no zuo no die... Andy grabbed the white and tender feet, played with them in his hands, and smiled sadly, and Ivana smiled coquettishly and wanted to retract her feet.
"Don't... Don't scratch the soles of my feet... Giggles, okay, but what the hell is no zuo no die? Forget it, Chanel called in the morning, New York Fashion Week wants me to attend their autumn and winter fashion show, you can come with me, okay?" Ivana looked at Andy expectantly.
Andy couldn't help wiping a cold sweat in his heart, Nima fortunately just confirmed that Adriana Lima would participate in Paris Fashion Week and fly directly to Milan Fashion Week, if this is met at New York Fashion Week, tsk, there will definitely be a problem on Lima's side.
Originally, I decided not to join in the excitement, but I wasn't interested, and besides, the models of Fashion Week were not as hot as underwear models, so I really couldn't arouse my interest. As for grabbing the news or something, is that a problem for him?
However, seeing Ivana's expectant look, coupled with some guilt caused by some of her excesses last night, she finally nodded and said, "Okay." ”
"Great, dear, reward you with a fragrant kiss, huh. ”
"Poof!"
Andy smiled and crawled over to Ivana, who kissed her cheek, into her arms, gently stroked her jade back, kissed her hair on the top of her head a few times, and said apologetically: "I'm sorry, dear, I was last night... ”
Ivana blushed slightly and reached out to cover Andy's lips, then shyly pressed her face to his chest and whispered, "I love you!"
Andy's arms tightened, hugging Ivana in his arms a little tighter.
Andy spent most of the next two days writing the follow-up to "Gossip Girl" and "National Treasure", staying in San Francisco to help him set up the Whatsapp software development company, patiently waiting for the think tank's financial review of Newsweek, preparing various tasks, hoping to make the newspaper's transition smooth and seamless after the acquisition is completed.
After all, it is a big newspaper with a long history, and it is not something that can be treated in a simple way like a regional newspaper like The Observer.
Think of its five sub-magazines, as many as 31 branches, and a newspaper company with nearly 2,000 employees worldwide, which is also the first company controlled by Andy to exceed 1,000 employees, after all, the scale of the game company is only a little more than 200 people, which is undoubtedly a challenge, for himself, but also for his think tank.
In the past two days, except for the real estate bond team that has moved the office space to the conference room, the entire office hall of Gaia Investment Trust Company is extremely busy, a row of long tables are placed with various financial reports and documents, everyone is trotting to save time, one by one usually well-dressed JINGYING, all of them have their ties spread out, the collar of their shirts is open, the sleeves are rolled up, and they sit in their seats with a loud voice to deliver information and ask for information.
"Bang ... ”
"Look here!" THE CHIEF JUDGE OF THE THINK TANK WALKED TO A LARGE WHITE WRITING BOARD, CLAPPED HIS HANDS VIGOROUSLY, AND AFTER SHOUTING, HE SAW THAT EVERYONE TURNED THEIR EYES OVER, TOOK OUT A BLACK MARKER AND WROTE FOUR WORDS ON THE WRITING BOARD.
"Warsaw, Mexico City, HK, London".
Then he drew a circle on each place name, pointed to it with the marker pen in his hand, and said loudly: "There is a problem with the financial statements of these four overseas branches, and the person in charge of these four companies immediately asks Newsweek for detailed information... ”
Andy let go of the blinds that had been deformed by pressing his fingers, frowned and looked at Al who was sitting on the sofa and said, "There are four more problems!"
"Boss, you should be happy, the more problems are found, the more reason we have to carry out layoff reforms, I heard that Jon Meacham is ready to start the European edition, boss, you haven't joined the owner yet, he is ready to let you invest money first." Oh, he may be very good at media content, but the management of the company is very unqualified, you should have a mental preparation... Alvitre expressed great doubts about Jon Meacham's ability to run a business.
Andy sat back in the boss's chair, frowned slightly, squinted his eyes slightly, reached out and touched his chin that was slightly prickly, and finally looked at Al with sharp eyes and said: "In the future, the editor-in-chief and administrative management will be separated, Jon will be responsible for the content part, as for the management of the company, looking for a headhunting company, I need a CEO with media experience!"
In the previous life, Newsweek changed its owners three times, its business was bleak, its glory was no longer great, it repeatedly sent people under the fence, frequently changed owners, and changing its editor-in-chief was like inviting guests to dinner, starting from Jon Meacham's bad idea of raising the price of the weekly, until the abolition of paper publishing, becoming an electronic version, and relaunching paper publications and electronic editions, it was simply running all the way down the road to death.
Andy didn't want the acquisition to become a money-loss, "wrong, stupid" chore.
Since Jon Meacham doesn't have the ability to manage the business well, then I'm sorry, stand aside! It's okay to be his content editor, if you have an opinion? Don't cooperate? Hehe, there aren't too many people who want to be the editor-in-chief of Newsweek.
Jon is a smart man, and the power structure of the newspaper will definitely change a little after it is acquired, and he should have been mentally prepared for it. It's not that Andy doesn't remember Jon's support for Chengcheng, credit is credit, ability is ability, Andy wants the huge number of subscriptions to Newsweek and its global influence, not to raise prices and shrink sales, and it is difficult to get out of the loss-making and bleak garbage.
"Honey, are you tired?"
In the Maybach car driving to the scene of New York Fashion Week, Andy frowned slightly, closed his eyes and lay on the executive seat, wearing a fan long-sleeved and large wavy irregular cut skirt dress, and a pair of slender and white long legs were exposed, Ivana leaned over her pretty face and asked with concern.
Andy opened his eyes, stretched his brows, reached out and touched Ivana's white and tender face, and replied with a slight smile: "It's okay, it's just a little upset, the situation of Newsweek is a bit complicated, half of the 31 branches have financial mess problems, although many are legacy problems, but Jon Meacham's management ability is really bad." ”
Andy saw that Ivana's mood was also affected a little, and couldn't help but show a gentle smile and said, "Okay, don't talk about these unhappy things, I'll get to the place soon, put on the coat first, don't catch a cold." ”
As he spoke, he unfolded a blue cashmere shawl-style jacket next to him and helped Ivana put it on.
Since 2004, New York Fashion Week has been sponsored by Mercedes-Benz, and the name of Fashion Week has also been changed to Mercedes-Benz New York Fashion Week.
This year's New York Fashion Week was held in a marquee set up in Bryant Park in the heart of New York.
That's right, the venue of New York Fashion Week is a tent set up, and every brand participating in Fashion Week also needs to rent a convertible to be used as a show.
Renting a tent for 350 to 1,100 people costs $25,000 to $50,000, not including hair, makeup, and modeling. Therefore, the brand investment in the exhibition is still quite high.
In fact, the New York Fashion Week after 2010 has declined, in addition to the less and less brand participation, American superstars rarely appear in New York Fashion Week, of course, in addition to the rabbit country group brush presence, a circle shows that the tall blanket stars are still happy to pile up inside...
However, the 2007 New York Fashion Week is still very popular, and the stars of the rabbit country are basically brand spokespersons and are invited to sit in the first row to watch the show.
Andy and Ivana's appearance was naturally inhumane by many reporters, and the Fashion Week Organizing Committee dispatched more than a dozen security guards to let the two of them smoothly enter the Chanel show greenhouse.
This kind of scene made several domestic media surround the interview with the smoke "Zhou Gongzi", and also made the domestic media extremely curious about the identities of Andy and Ivana.
Accompanied by the president of Chanel Asia, the petite Zhou Gongzi sat in the first row, opposite Andy and Ivana.
Under the puzzle of the president of Asia, I knew why the couple opposite was so sought after, although the rabbit people are very blind to foreigners, but Zhou Gongzi also had to sigh that Andy, who has been smiling with a sunny and charming smile on the opposite side, is indeed a handsome guy.
When Andy was whispering to Ivana, he inadvertently saw Zhou Xun who was looking at him opposite, for this famous female star who is petite, playful with a little maturity, a little vicissitudes in her voice, and a little bit of a little woman in her personality, Andy still has a good impression, of course, just appreciating, after all, Zhou Gongzi's love history is indeed a bit rich.
Andy still had a smile on his face, and nodded politely to the other party, showing courtesy and kindness.
Zhou Gongzi didn't expect the other party to nod and greet her, the subtlety of the oriental woman made her a little shy, smiled politely, and nodded slightly, after all, she couldn't be rude.
It was just a small episode, and soon the venue was filled with spectators, and it wasn't long before Chanel's Fall/Winter 2007 fashion show began with dynamic music.
