208 Hughes & Sons

"I'm avoiding you, I just don't want to see you.

Carl, we're done, we're done a long time ago. "Laura looked at Carl? Hawke, with some emotion in his heart.

All these years, she has been avoiding the man in front of her, but since she made up her mind to come to Hollywood to develop, she was prepared to be discovered by the other party, but she didn't expect it to be tonight.

"Nope! Do you know how excited I was when I knew you were alive? "Carl? Hawke grabbed Rose by the shoulder, made her look at herself, and said excitedly, "Let's start over!" I know you want to be free, I don't want to be tied up everywhere like before, you can do whatever you want, anything, just give me another chance. ”

Rose looked at Carl? Hawke's excited look, not like a fake, hesitated in his heart, but immediately became firm. She opened her eyes to Carl? Hawke's hands said, "Impossible! I can't forget how you shot at us on the boat, never, and I feel terrible to think about it. It was Jack who saved me, and I promised him that I would live a free and wonderful life. So, let it go! Carl, you have a bright future, and I'm just a passerby. That Rose from the past, that British lady has sunk to death in the Atlantic, and now it's Rose standing in front of you? Dawson. Let it go! ”

After Rose finished speaking, she didn't look back and left, leaving Carl with a disappointed face? Hawk. Rose's words hit the man's heart like a bullet, and he watched the slender back come out of sight, Carl? Hawke clenched his fists and hesitated, ? Or let it go? These thoughts flickered in his heart repeatedly!

At the moment, he just wants to curse the damn Titanic, why should it be sunk? If it didn't sink, even if Rose had a crush on his damn Jack, she would get off the boat and eventually return to herself. She is still the wife who coping with the UK by herself!

"Are you alright?" Situ Nan found an opportunity to come to Rose's side, and when he saw that her face was not very good, he asked.

"I'm fine!" Rose said, looking at Situ Nan's concerned look, she was a little moved. Just with Carl? Hawke's words had used up almost all her courage, and now that she had finally unloaded her burden, her heart was much lighter.

"Alright! Happy! Situ Nan looked at Rose and said, "Come here!" Introduce you to a friend who is the new partner of our film! ”

"Partner? What kind of partner? Rose asked.

"Howard? Hughes. A businessman from Texas who is interested in movies. Situ Nan said as he beckoned to a man in his fifties and sixties in the distance.

"This is Rose? Miss Dawson, my partner. This is the Howard I mentioned to you? Hughes, from Houston, is president of Hughes Tools Company. Situ Nan introduced.

"It's an honor to meet Miss Dawson, you're so beautiful!" Old Hughes complimented, his eyes fixed on Rose, as if he was fascinated by beauty. But Yu Guang secretly paid attention to Situ Nan's expression beside him.

"Hello! Mr. Hughes, welcome to our Century William Company. Rose said enthusiastically, but she didn't like this old uncle who looked a little obsessed!

"I'm out of company. See you later, let's talk slowly! Situ Nan saw Laura beckoning him not far away, so he hurriedly walked over.

Seeing that Situ Nan was gone, Rose stomped her feet, she was not in a good mood tonight! Standing with Situ Nan, old Hughes became a tofu scum, which made Rose uninterested, so the conversation between the two was perfunctory one by one.

Not much speculation, old Hughes withdrew after a while. Although Rose's beauty tempted old Hughes, he knew that he could touch it! After all, Situ Nan is still the big boss of old Hughes!

Since Hughes Tools was acquired by Halliburton, the largest oilfield integrated services company in the United States, the scale of Hughes has expanded several times, and the value of Hughes Sr. has also risen.

After having money, the elder Hughes likes to patronize Hollywood more and more, and chasing those moving female stars on the screen is one of his great preferences. He has a younger brother named Rupert? Hughes, a Hollywood playwright and director, recently joined the Twentieth Century William Film Company and became one of Delp's generals.

At the instigation of his younger brother, Hughes Sr. also became a minority shareholder in the Twentieth Century William Film Company. It has to be said that the elder Hughes made a shrewd move, not only satisfying his curiosity in some aspects, but also becoming a partner of Situ Nan, which was crucial for him to maintain his position on the board of directors of Halliburton! He still doesn't know what kind of effect his actions will have on his son.

A few years later, when he died, the Hughes family would be succeeded by another, even better playboy, a young boy whom Situ Nan liked very much.

"Stoney, come and take a look, these pictures are so beautiful!" Laura raised the photo in her hand to Situ Nan, touched her protruding belly with her hand, and smiled happily.

Situ Nan looked at it, in the photo, in the snowy world, Situ Nan and Laura hugged on a bridge and smiled happily.

"Isn't this a photo of the two of them at Nicaraguara Falls last year when the snow froze over? What about George? Is he coming? Situ Nan looked around and asked.

"Over there! I'm talking to Andrew! Laura smiled and pointed to the two white-headed little old men not far away, while holding Situ Nan's hand.

"Merry Christmas, George! Thought you couldn't come? You've been a surprise to me! Situ Nan hugged him, and George still had a little snow on his shoulders in his suit? Eastman. It's very rare that there was a little snow in Los Angeles today. However, it does not affect the fiery atmosphere of Christmas at all.

"It was long overdue but was delayed by a flight. Did you see those photos? I deliberately asked someone to enlarge and wash it out. Congratulations, I didn't expect that it has only been a year, and Laura is pregnant with a baby! What a blessing! "George? Eastman said kindly. He is in his sixties, but he has never been married, has no children, and has always liked Situ Nan and Laura.

"Very beautiful! It's more beautiful than the guys in Hollywood who make movies! Situ Nan praised.

The speaker has no intention, but the listener has a heart. George? Eastman had a flash of inspiration and said, "There are a lot of studios here in Hollywood, and they definitely need a lot of camera equipment, and I want to invest in a new film factory in Los Angeles, how about it?" ”

"Oh? All right! Very good idea. Situ Nan nodded, close to the market, Kodak opened a new factory in Los Angeles.

Situ Nan thought of George? Eastman had been in trouble all his life, and if Kodak was going to set up a factory in Los Angeles, he would spend more time living here, so he said, "George, Beverly Hills is a good place, why don't you move in with me as a neighbor?" I still have a lot of land in my hands. ”

"Let's talk about it! I'm too old to retire! "George? Eastman replied noncommittally, but he received Situ Nan's affection in his heart.

He said again: "By the way, what's wrong with the school?" It's been almost half a year, and it's almost finished, right? ”

"It's coming! Tomorrow morning, you can see the school from here. Rest assured, I personally nailed the plaque for Eastman Medical College. Situ Nan smiled unashamedly. He respects this old man who is enthusiastic about charity and education from the bottom of his heart.

Great Good Man George? When Eastman learned that Stuart was going to donate to build the school, he generously donated $200,000, but this time he didn't have to use the pseudonym "Smith."

"Really? That's great! Maybe it's nice to stay here too! "George? Eastman laughed. In the next few days, he will be on the spot to inspect the investment climate in Los Angeles, and it is a sure thing to open the factory here.

The weather was clear, and a convoy pulled out of William's Manor in Beverly Hills, and after a while came to Situ, William University, at the bottom of the mountain.

Andrew, Robles, Handa, George and other school donors came, and these people were all hard-pulled by Situ Nan, one is to show off, and the other is to let them inspect the goods, showing that Stoney? William himself didn't embezzle their money, and all the money went to the school. How can a new school be built without money?

"Oh! Oh my God! Plane! That's an airplane! It's so beautiful! The young man said in surprise, gesturing excitedly at an airplane on the grass.

"Howard, be polite!" Old Hughes shouted softly, frowning at his son.

He deliberately brought his son Howard Jr. today? Hughes came to inspect the new school, hoping that this son who gave him a headache could finish his studies smoothly, and the old Hughes took a lot of effort, but every time he arrived at a new school, within a few days, little Howard? Hughes didn't like school anymore, and on several occasions even dropped out altogether. What a problem teenager.

Little Hughes also ignored the old Hughes's gaze, he stared at the plane in the distance, and the man who walked off the plane! A leather flight jacket, wrapped in a silk scarf, with a confident smile on his face, got off the plane, and was really handsome.

"Paul! Your hands are good so fast? Andrew said with a frown, he couldn't find this guy when he just set off, it turned out that he had slipped out early.

What's more, this guy flew directly from the runway in the backyard to the school after the convoy departed. I really love to show off, pull the style, I don't know who to learn from, and I don't have the low-key style of the Mellon family at all.

"Oh. Well, all right! You see! Paul moved his arms nonchalantly, but in his heart he was proud, and his heart said, "Don't talk about hands, even one hand can fly on its own." ”

These days, Paul is going crazy. All of a sudden, I returned to calm California from the fierce Western Front, always looking for something to do. Now that she can't go to the army, Laura has a big belly, and Paul has to start taking on the school business. He had a brilliant idea, and he flew to work every day. Relying on Situ Nan to build an airport in the backyard, he usually flies from his home to the university as soon as he slips through the smoke.

Andrew shook his head and sighed quietly to Situ Nan, "Usually you keep an eye on him, don't let him run back to France." ”

"Alright! I'll have an idea. Situ Nan hurriedly agreed.

In fact, he didn't want to be like Paul? Otherwise, I wouldn't have agreed with Paul's idea of building an airport in his backyard.

"Boy! Do you like airplanes too? Paul asked, seeing Hughes Jr. staring at himself and the plane.

"Yes. It's fascinating. Can you call me? Hughes Jr. looked at Paul expectantly.

"No problem. Actually, I'm a flight instructor in the aviation department of this university! Paul touched little Hughes's head and snapped his fingers.

"Dad, I'm going to school here!" Hughes Jr. clenched his fists and announced.

"Huh? Didn't you say you wanted to study film before? ”

"I've changed my mind!"

"Why?"

"Because flying is more exciting than the women who fascinate you!"

Everyone laughed, old Hughes was embarrassed!

Be a rich man, send the most magnificent movies, get on the prettiest women, and fly the fastest planes! Sure enough, you still haven't changed!

Looking at the father and son, Situ Nan touched his chin and thought proudly.
