Bella's signing in New York was a success, and friends from all walks of life were very popular.

Chubby history teacher Carl. Elijah has been helping her with Zhang Luo, and the order of the scene is not very good, but very good! Not to mention the gangsters, even the little hooligans who are used to whistling at her do not appear.

Bella's impression of New York is getting better and better, and who says New York is full of disasters? Absolutely slander!

The first stop at the signing was New York, and after proving that The Hunger Games had the potential to be a big hit, the second stop was in Boston.

In the eyes of the previous life, Boston was not very famous, but many of the elites in the United States came from Boston, and there is a strong academic atmosphere here, neither like New Yorkers who are bent on making money, nor like Washingtonians who shout political slogans every day.

There are many elites, and naturally there are many people who buy books.

Whether it is Random House, the publisher, or Chanel, who sells perfumes and cosmetics with her, they attach great importance to the Boston book signing.

Bella wants more fame and more praise, and she only gets 10% of the income from the book signing, how much interest can she have? Like many well-known writers, royalty income is still the main part of her income now, but in the future, the income from the operation of books and peripheral goods will be the majority.

This joint sale with Chanel is an attempt.

The Chanel of this plane is missing Karl. Lagerfeld has led to the company's performance not up or down, not to mention compared with giants such as Louis Vuitton, Hermes, and Gucci, even standing in front of Dior, she is a sister.

Chanel is not a publicly traded company, its shares are wholly owned by individuals, and it hardly publishes financial reports, but Bella still investigates the current situation of the company through some means.

The stake in the company is entirely in the hands of the Jewish Wadmore brothers, 66-year-old Alain. Widmore and Gérard, 63. Widmore, the two brothers each have a 50% stake.

The two rarely appear in public, Chanel holds some big shows and other events, they sit in four or five rows, I don't know, I think these two old men are passing by.

The cautious, calculating, uncaring and practical character of the Jews in their bones is vividly manifested in the two of them.

The two brothers are very calm, but Chanel has not developed well over the years, both French fashion brands, Chanel is pressed to the ground by Dior on a daily basis, and sales are declining year by year.

It is not a listed company, and naturally there is no market capitalization, the outside world can only make a brand evaluation, analysts believe that the brand is about to pass out, at most worth 500 million euros, or even lower, it is said that the Widmore brothers have the idea of selling shares, but it has not been confirmed by the outside world.

In fact, if you want to buy this company, it will not cost that much money, but even if it is small, 300 million euros is necessary.

Bella doesn't have that much money, she doesn't know how to get Chanel to the heights she once had, fashion is too ethereal, she thinks she doesn't have Karl. Lagerfeld's level, this leak is a bit difficult to pick up, and there is a high probability that it will fall into the pit if it is not picked up well.

"The management has complained many times that the company should go public, but the two legendary shareholders just won't agree!"

Chanel's Los Angeles sales manager was complaining to Bella, this is an extremely ordinary middle-aged American man, they met through the Stanford alumni association, one wants to advertise, the other wants to make money, so they naturally hit it off.

It's the 21st century, everyone has to go public to make money, and there are companies that are not listed? Bella is a layman in the economic field, and she can't guess what the two old men think, whether they have a deep layout, she can't see it, from the analysis of existing intelligence, the two old men are stingy to get home.

While the staff was setting up the venue, she chatted casually with the sales manager.

"Why don't you go public?" She asked.

The middle-aged man said with great dissatisfaction: "What else can it be?" The Jews clung to their purse strings for fear of being taken away by outsiders. ”

The Widmore brothers held on to their equity and refused to invest in foreign investment, let alone give equity incentives to management.

Management can only get an annual salary, there is not much enthusiasm for the work, and the brain drain is very fast.

This is also the main reason why the private company Chanel was pressed to the ground by the listed company Dior.

Bella thought for a moment, is this the Chanel of the original plane? According to the miserly character of the Jews, this is probably the case...... It's just that Chanel in that time and space is developing very well, and the Widmore brothers have enough connections at the top to withstand pressure from all sides, and now it's a different situation.

She was somewhat interested in Chanel, but the time was not yet ripe for everything.

She persuaded the sales manager: "Anyway, it's all a part-time job, do you see me?" I'm working for you, too. ”

The sales manager shook his head and chuckled: "You earn a lot more than me......"

After a few words, Bella went to change her clothes, which were provided by Chanel, which was also part of the advertisement.

The sales manager was busy arranging the venue, although there was no equity incentive, but the commission was still there, and it was a little bit to earn a little.

Bella sat in a daze in the dressing room, the hairstylist combed her hair a little nervously, and she was bored to pick up a fashion magazine and flip through it.

In his heart, he was thinking about the designer, without a good designer, Chanel would only be a second-rate brand even if it was bought.

She even calculated the assets in her hands, and mortgaged them all, how much could she borrow? The calculation turned out to be extremely different.

Thinking about it, she felt her eyelids fight, and she closed her eyes slightly, wanting to rest for a while.

The clothes she wore were loose and foggy, and she felt like a hand was touching her neck, and then down her collarbone, all the way down.

Outrageous! Who's so bold?

She grabbed the hand, trying to do an over-the-shoulder fall, then break the hand, and then break the neck or something.

But when I touched it like this, I found that it didn't feel right, I grabbed a woman's hand, she touched it twice, the palm was slippery, the fingers were round, and there was strength in the softness, she grabbed the palm, turned around sharply, and happened to meet Natasha's somewhat ridiculous eyes.

"Let go! Make it so powerful? Natasha smiled between her eyebrows, her eyes glancing in from her loose neckline.

Seeing that it was a misunderstanding, Bella snorted, this cheap sister dared to take advantage of herself? She tightened her neckline and asked curiously, "Why are you here?" ”

Natasha wore a very formal professional attire, a gold-headed shawl, watches, and necklaces.

It's completely dressed as a working woman.

"My mother heard that you were signing the sale, so she asked me to come over and help, it's okay to help you carry your bag, hand over water or something." Natasha pouted, looking like a captured man.
