In the next few days, it was still snowing heavily, and Niaguala's external transportation was interrupted for a time, and Situ Nan and his family were trapped in the hotel and could not go anywhere. (The fastest update speed is on the Aishang Novel Network biquge.info)

"When will the snow stop in this damn weather?" Situ Nan looked out the window at the heavy snow and complained.

Originally, he planned to spend a few days with Laura to see the waterfall, and then go back to deal with other things after reading it, his career is getting bigger and bigger, there are more and more worries, and people are getting busier and busier, even if he is a lazy shopkeeper like Situ Nan, there are many things to deal with by himself, such as his planned investment projects in the bank and the car, which are still on paper.

The plan can't keep up with the changes! The weather was good before he came, and Situ Nan also watched Niaguara in winter, but he didn't expect that when he was about to go back, the snow was getting heavier and heavier, and the accumulated snow blocked the traffic.

It wasn't even six or seven hours to get back to Pittsburgh, but the distance was delayed by a sudden snowfall. After staying in the hotel for a while, Situ Nan felt a little annoyed.

However, it was not without its gains, not only did I get to see the magical and beautiful Niaguara Falls in winter, but I also met a nice old man, George Eastman.

Of course, there is also a breakthrough in Laura's relationship, which is what Situ Nan feels is the most accomplished thing at present. There is a word called prostitution in the daytime, and in the past two days, it has also been experienced in Situ Nan and them, and the taste of each cannot be humanized by outsiders.

Situ Nan did not regret this trip at all, but was a little glad that there was now a very good opportunity for him to get involved in Kodak.

Well, the love scene is proud, and the mall is also a little proud. For Situ Nan, the biggest gain is to find the woman in his life - Laura.

Thinking of this, Situ Nan's heart warmed, and he had a warm feeling, and the irritability just now was suddenly smoothed out by the warm current surging in his heart.

Even if they are trapped in this icy and snowy town of Niaguala for a while, isn't this a rare time for the two to get along? One cannot take advantage of everything, or he will be damned. Situ Nan glanced back at Laura, she was sorting out an English song that someone had hummed irresponsibly and casually!

"Stoney, can you come and see if I'm writing correctly?" Laura put down her pen and said.

Situ Nan glanced at it and put it down, this thing is not interesting, it is just the result of his momentary nature. Now in front of a big beauty, the two are in the same room, well, she has become her own woman for a short time, and it is the time when the fight is hot, and the two get together to discuss literature and music, it seems like a waste of time, right? The spring days are short, and it is better to ・・・・・・

Situ Nan looked at the beautiful and moving woman in front of him, and his heart was a little nervous.

"What bad things are you thinking about?" Laura was as white as Situ Nan, and she was a little afraid of this guy who was a little demanding.

In the past few days, after Laura's new melon has been first broken, she knows the taste of the marrow, both of them are young people, and they are crazy about what they do when they stick together.

As a result, Laura became more and more energetic, but Situ Nan's face was a little weak, but there was excitement between his eyebrows that could not be concealed. Think about it, being trapped indoors all day long, with nothing to do, in front of a big beauty, even a man will indulge himself.

Laura frowned when she looked at Situ Nan's somewhat sallow face, she was a little distressed, and thought: This is not a good sign! Can't indulge this guy anymore.

Situ Nan hugged Laura, and was about to add some sweet memories, but was held down by Laura, "Stoney, don't mess around, it's harmful to your body." In a few days, do you want you, I'll give it to you again? ”

After Laura's finished speaking, her face turned red, although she had already "met frankly" with Situ Nan, she still felt shy, she didn't know that this kind of shy answer was a little reluctant and even more tempting.

"Well... But the debt will be remembered to pay it back next time! Situ Nan swallowed hard, thinking that this is a good woman, and it will hurt people.

Although he didn't do what he loved, Situ Nan didn't have too much loss in his heart, and he would have a long time to come.

"It's boring! Why don't we play cards! Situ Nan said.

"Good! All right! But what cards do two people play? Why don't you call Eastman next door to come over and fight the landlord! Laura said.

"Okay! I'll call George! After Situ Nan finished speaking, he went to find Eastman.

I don't know why, Laura, who has never played cards, fell in love with playing the landlord, and when they got together yesterday and were bored, the three of them played to fight the landlord. However, Situ Nan did not call this game a landlord, but changed it to a capitalist!

The idea of freedom and democracy in the United States has penetrated into the bone marrow, and their brains really can't understand why they want to fight the complex concept of landlords, so they still fight the capitalists! Anyway, in these years, the exploitation of the capitalists has really done everything, quite annoying. (For details, please see Chaplin's "Modern Times", the exaggerated plot in it makes people laugh, but looking back, it is sad behind it!) ）

Well, apparently this was taught by Situ Nan, and Situ Nan learned it as soon as he taught Laura and Eastman, and the technique is not bad, and Situ Nan is not easy to abuse these two novices now.

"Hey! George, are you okay? How about coming over and playing together? Situ Nan knocked on Eastman's door and said, now that they knew each other very well, Situ Nan called Eastman affectionately George, not the pseudonym Smith.

"Okay!" Eastman said briskly.

However, after playing a few games, Eastman was losing, and today he was a little absent-minded, staring at the cards for a long time, and often forgot to play the cards.

Situ Nan glanced at Eastman, only to see a faint sorrow locked between his eyebrows, as if he was worried about something.

Even Laura could see this, she looked at Eastman with concern, and then at Situ Nan, but she didn't say anything.

"George, are you in trouble?" Putting down the cards in his hand, Situ Nan asked.

"Hey!" Eastman sighed, put down the cards in his hand abruptly, twisted his brows, and said, "Business matters, I can't say it clearly for a while." But when will the damn snow stop, I really want to rush back to New York to get out of the company's troubles. Eastman looked through the glass window at the snow outside, his face grim.

Usually Niaguala is the coldest time in February, when the ice and snow block the traffic, but I didn't expect this year to be early, just after Christmas, the heavy snow is so bad. This was something that Eastman had not expected, and apparently he had the same idea as Situ Nan before.

Kodak has had a serious crisis in the past few days, and he is waiting for Eastman to go back to put out the fire, thinking that Rinyaguara, New York will not be a day's trip, but he is trapped here at this time, and he is a little anxious.

"Tell me something, maybe I can help you! We're friends, aren't we? Situ Nan looked at Eastman sincerely, and he wouldn't mind helping this year-old friend if he could.

"You..." Eastman glanced at Situ Nan, a little moved in his heart. Only then did he remember that the young man in front of him had a lot of energy, and maybe he could really help himself!

There is also the princess of the Mellon family next to her, and the origin is not small, Eastman glanced at Laura again.

Seeing that the man was about to talk about something, Laura got up playfully, "I'll go get you some hot coffee!" With that, he walked away.

"Stoney, you are so blessed, Laura is a good girl with a good heart, you should cherish her!" After Laura walked away, Eastman spoke to Stuart South in a serious voice.

"Hmm!" Situ Nan responded, but he felt proud in his heart. But it's you who are in trouble now, brother, not when we discuss whether my woman is virtuous or not.

"What the hell is going on? Something is wrong with the company? Situ Nan asked.

"In the past few years, our Kodak company has expanded greatly, and a lot of money has been used to expand the scale of the company, which is nothing, but in the face of war, trade has been interrupted, and the arms and steel industry is booming, but the market demand for consumer goods such as cameras is also shrinking, and some of the cameras we produce are pressed in the warehouse for a while and cannot be sold, occupying a lot of funds.

You know, our company philosophy has always been committed to the pursuit of the latest technology level in the industry, so we pay great attention to technical research, in recent years, the company in addition to the expansion of the force, spent a lot of money on technical research, but most of the results can not be directly transformed into products for a while, there is no profit, but there is additional investment, otherwise the early efforts will be in vain. This is also one of the reasons why the company is under great financial pressure.

Originally, this was nothing, Kodak Company has not lost much in the past two years, and the pressure of funds has passed by gritting their teeth and persevering, but many shareholders are unwilling to continue to invest, and they see that the munitions, steel, grain processing and other industries are booming, just like pumping out funds and investing them in the industries that make money.

Don't they understand? The boom in these industries is not long-lasting, there will always be a day when the war is over, and there will be no large number of material orders after the war, and these industries will also be depressed, and the money earned from those investments will also be lost.

In that case, it is better to continue to invest in Kodak! Although Kodak is having some difficulties right now, after all, this is a long-term business that will bring them great rewards in the near future. ”

Eastman said.

Situ Nan listened quietly to Eastman's complaints, and his words were not unreasonable, as Eastman said, the steel, arms and other industries would fall into a depression in two years, and those small and medium-sized enterprises that blindly expanded would close down due to the lack of sufficient orders after the war.

In fact, it is the big capitalists and big conglomerates who really make money, and when the Great Depression or the economy is in a recession, it is also a good time for these capital predators to open their mouths and swallow up on a large scale, because they have a lot of money in their hands, and they can reduce competition and reduce costs by wantonly swallowing up those small and medium-sized enterprises that are in a recession. Then they survived the difficult period, and when the economy improves, the enterprises in their hands will make a lot of money.

But these are a little early, and now the United States has not entered the war! However, Situ Nan has to admire Eastman's vision, you have to focus on doing business, Kodak is a century-old enterprise with unlimited potential.

"George, you're right, you have a good eye, but everyone is different, and it's impossible for all those people to listen to you. People often choose to only see the benefits they can see in the immediate and give up the long-term benefits, which is normal, nothing! Situ Nan said. Well, it looks like a comfort, but it's a little painless.

In this game of competition for Kodak, short-sighted people will choose to leave now, while those who know the goods will resolutely join in, such as Situ Nan, who has "quietly entered the village" in front of him.

Situ Nan felt that Eastman's troubles might also be his chance, but even if he was happy in his heart, he couldn't show it on his face, and he didn't know for a while that he was actually the one who started it.

"yes, if only those people were like you. However, this is not the strictest thing, the most serious thing is that now Kodak is in a crisis. ”

"Oh?" Finally getting to the point, Situ Nan looked at Eastman expectantly.

Just four days ago, the New York Wall Street Times ran a report on Kodak's financial crisis, and Kodak's stock price fell. Kodak's stock was sold off, and in just one day, it has fallen from the original $4 per share to $3.1 per share, a drop of nearly 30% on the first day, and the stock price has fallen all the way in the next two days, and it has fallen to $2.2 yesterday, which is terrible!

Now there are rumors everywhere on Wall Street that Kodak's capital chain is broken, that it will go bankrupt without new capital joining, and that there are no really strong measures to restore the confidence of investors, but I am trapped here, and I am really angry! ”

Eastman said angrily, "It's a conspiracy, I can feel it!" ”

"Won't it?" Situ Nan said in surprise.

Did Robles do it? Situ Nan suddenly realized that he had mentioned to Robles about Kodak before, as if he had authorized Robles to deal with Kodak.

Thinking of this, Situ Nan felt a little weak, he touched his nose, looked at Eastman, and waited for his next step.

Eastman frowned and said, "I also just received this news, they contacted me for a few days before finding me, and when I received this news, things were already out of control." Hell, now I'm stuck here, and I can't go back to New York for a while, so I can only call New York through Guò, and I can't do anything else. ”

"Indeed, it's bad enough, the damn weather, I would have liked to go back to Pittsburgh, and now I'm ・・・・・," Stuart echoed weakly.

If this was really done by his own people, it is ironic that now Eastman, the victim, is complaining in front of him, isn't it too hypocritical? This made Situ Nan's heart a little uncomfortable. This thing was done like this, and Situ Nan also felt that he could be so shameless.
