Chapter 472: Ball Flowers, Finance, and Football
Gratty Monica Bellucci, half-asleep, she initiates hazy dreams.
In the dream, her husband confronted her and asked her why she was unfaithful.
She argued that it was all for work, and she was for the family.
In her dream, she said that only by working hard can she bring a better income to her family and thus get a better life.
In the dream, her husband rebuked her.
Say she's not at all, because if it's just work.
So why is she so involved in the process, why is she so proactive?
Monica Bellucci continued to argue that it was not something she wanted to take the initiative with.
It's to the back, and when I get to the back, I can't help it, and gradually I take the initiative.
This is a normal physiological reaction, and no one can control it!
Just when she was hazy and had a big fight with her husband in her dream.
She gradually woke up a little in a groggy state.
She heard someone around her shouting, unable to wail, "Oh God...... Count me in, the 4th! Are you a monster? Aren't you tired at all!? β
The music outside is loud, isn't it closed?
Monica Bellucci remembers that the room was well insulated.
After the door was closed, the music outside could not be heard at all.
Could it be that the door was opened?
Monica, a little chaotic, thought so.
Suddenly, she felt her body being bounced up by Simmons.
Something smashed around her, so gravity bounced her up.
With such a big movement, Monica finally regained some consciousness.
She opened her eyes a little dimly and saw that it was Able standing in front of her.
But Simmons was thrown by one person, no, not one, plus her, there were already three.
The closest to her is the British actress Kelly Brooke, who recently starred with her in a film in the "Eurostar" program.
The two played sisters in the movie, which made their relationship in reality very good.
Come to Strawberry Hill like this time and join this party.
At first, Kelly Brooke was somewhat rejected.
She is still young, still a little tall, and a little reserved.
When asked for Monica's opinion.
Monica told her as a passer-by, advising her.
"If you still want to mix in this industry. If you want to go better and further in the profession of an actor. Then I advise you, sometimes this kind of thing can't be avoided. You know what I mean. β
Listened to the words of the good "sister".
Kelly Brooke then accepted Penelope's call.
She appeared here with Monica Bellucci, along with many other women.
Now, the Italian national treasure goddess is still not sober.
She saw Kelly Brooke who had fallen beside her.
Before Monica could react, she subconsciously whispered, "Kelly." Why are you here? β
Kelly didn't have time to reply to Monica, she was puffing in her mouth.
Abel was free, and he spread his hands out, indicating that he had nothing to say.
Monica seemed to understand something, and she tried to stand up after kicking twice in two months, but her strength was very weak.
It made her know that she was powerless to resist.
β¦β¦
β¦β¦
The next day, Abel woke up and saw the mess in the party hall of Strawberry Hill last night.
He shrugged his shoulders and looked at the battlefield with satisfaction, where he had fought all night last night.
Turning around and leaving here, I went to the glass restaurant facing east of Strawberry Hill.
The dining room is just shining, and the tables covered with white tablecloths are already filled with a hearty breakfast.
It was his team of on-the-go chefs, using the freshest ingredients from all over the world to cook for him.
In terms of personal enjoyment, Abel is never stingy, but is particularly willing to spend money.
He has several chef teams, and there are three top chefs who follow him everywhere.
A master of Chinese cuisine, a master of Italian cuisine, and a top-notch barbecue and steak chef.
They tried to make it so that Able could enjoy whatever food he wanted even when he was away from home.
Just like now.
Abel sat down and enjoyed himself slowly.
Before he could take a few bites, he saw Monica Bellucci, wearing a fat t-shirt and barefoot, with some resentment on her mature and feminine face, walking in.
Seeing her appearance, Abel couldn't help but raise his eyebrows.
Few women were able to get up so early the next day and show up at his side.
But he thought about it, and last night Monica Bellucci was the most.
But after all, there are many of them.
It's understandable that Monica Bellucci can wake up so early.
Monica Bellucci, who was a little disgruntled, came to Abel:
"You...... You're going a little too far! Mr. Smith. β
She speaks English very well, is very fluent, and has obviously learned.
Still, Abel liked the fact that last night, when she couldn't help but speak her native language, shouting in those Italian with a slight Perugia accent.
Abel didn't understand, but he liked to listen to it just as much.
"Hey!" Abel beckoned, pointed to the breakfast on the table and said, "Dear Monica, won't you eat some?" I dare say you're hungry enough to eat a cow right now. You didn't eat anything last night. β
Monica Bellucci looked at Abel's sunny smile and heard his gentle words, and couldn't believe that this was the monster that didn't stop for a moment last night.
What's more, Anna Wintour's praise is not actually bragging.
Many times, Abel's smile is matched with his appearance, which is indeed very easy to make the opposite sex feel good.
In addition, the sunlight in the glass house restaurant at this time is just right, which makes him feel like the male protagonist in the movie.
Monica Bellucci is not young and knows what it means to be in moderation.
She took a soft breath, hesitated, and sat down beside him.
It's so close that Able can smell the scent of Hermès Orange Spring Shower Gel on her body.
Obviously, before coming, after waking up.
Monica bathed herself without perfume, but also made her body smelly.
"Chinese food? French food? Italian food? Or barbecue, what do you want to eat? If you don't have it here, you can also ask my chef to cook it for you. β
Listen to his gentle words.
Monica glanced at the white tablecloth in front of her, which was full of delicacies.
The Italian national treasure-level goddess secretly cursed in her heart: [Abominable chaebol capitalist! γ
A breakfast, just so extravagant, so much food, not afraid of waste?
But she still got close to it, chose to experience what she liked to eat, slowly and elegantly.
Within a few bites, she heard him speak:
"I asked, Smith Media and Vivendi will co-fund a documentary-like film."
"The film will feature Anna Wintour, Karl Lagerfeld, Alexander McQueen and others in a fashion style."
"It's a two-heroine movie, and a lot of actresses will be used. It will be filmed in Hollywood, and will be filmed in Europe and the United States. β
"The investment is huge, and the publicity budget is as high as $40 million. It has cooperated with many top luxury companies. β
"I gave a suggestion that you and Sophie Marceau play the two heroines in it."
Monica Bellucci, who was about to give it to the entrance with a boutique macaron from a Laduri store, was stunned, and she listened carefully to his speech.
"What is this? Is it a ticket? β
After listening, after a few seconds, she couldn't help but ask in a low voice.
"Whatever you want." Abel shrugged:
"The supporting actresses in it will be selected from last night's selection."
"Sophie Marceau and I are the heroines, so ...... What about Penelope? Monica Bellucci said.
So many people have a share.
It's not going to be this pimp girl, but to be left out in the cold, right?
"Penny doesn't play in this movie. She had other film shoots and was not available at all. β
Damn pimp girl, apparently what she did last night did her a great favor!
But this guy is indeed like the legend, "clearly marked the price", and will never cheat the girl.
Monica has no doubts.
Knowing the nature of the party.
She also came to participate in the married woman, and this was what she originally wanted.
Now that I've got these, the other party has no intention of entanglement.
She already has a family, she should be happy.
But for some reason, Monica Bellucci felt a little lost.
Because it seems that even if Abel showed that he was more fascinated by her last night, he is now very indifferent.
She was keenly aware of her uncomfortable feelings.
And the explanation she gave herself was-
[I'm jealous of that Spanish woman, everyone gives the same amount, but she gets more than us. That's right, that's all......]
Continuing to eat, Monica didn't say much more halfway through.
She was afraid that as soon as she opened her mouth, her family, which was quite stable, might have problems.
Half an hour later, the Italian national treasure goddess, a strong contender for the honor of the Earth Ball Flower.
Monica's eyes widened in surprise as she sparkled her beautiful, black jewel-like eyes.
Because in front of her and Abel, there was a large amount of food that weighed at least four or five people, and she thought that it would be wasted by the hateful capitalists in the end.
Except for her own share, she actually killed Abel and ate it all for him.
This stomach capacity is also too good, and the amount of food is too exaggerated.
Looking at the back of Abel after he was full, he smiled at himself and left.
Monica thought to herself: No wonder she has such good physical strength.
β¦β¦
β¦β¦
Occasionally a dozen twenty-five, or like last night a dozen sixteen.
For Abel, this was nothing more than a pastime, a kind of entertainment to make himself happy.
What really makes him engaged, that he can feel safe
Or a variety of business practices that contribute to their "throne".
Strawberry Hill is about six miles from London's Financial Street.
It's almost 10 miles by car, and there are traffic jams.
So when Abel arrived at the Forey Building, which is the UK headquarters of the Smith Financial Group.
It was already around 10 a.m.
in the trading room.
"How's it going?"
Abel asked with a smile as he walked towards the LCD glass TV wall.
There is no need for Abel to ask carefully, Mr. CEO also knows what the boss is asking.
"The share price is now Β£15.5, up 21% from yesterday's closing. Obviously, there are a lot of investors who are betting that you will buy ITV in the UK. We even found a lot of institutional investors inside. There are even investment departments of companies such as Santander, Lloyds, Barclays, etc. β
"Haha......" Abel laughed.
It seems that the market is still very optimistic about the UK ITV.
And they were right.
Abel also really wants to annex ITV and turn it into a subsidiary of Smith Media in the UK.
But since they are so optimistic, Abel doesn't mind doing a few more bankers and playing with the rat barn a few more times.
"Then there's nothing to say. Let's see how bullish they really are on UK ITV and see if they're investors or just speculators. β
Hearing the boss say this, Jace understands what he did yesterday, and he can do it again today.
It's not very clever, but it's also dangerous.
But the benefits are considerable.
Hundreds of millions of pounds a day.
If it weren't for the fear of the regulators, Jace would be willing to do it every day.
"As you wish, our Majesty ......," Jace smiled.
Smith Financial's "dross" corporate culture is not at all unsuitable for the UK.
It's easier to accept this culture here than in the United States.
Even the living royal family has it.
So, what was played out yesterday at ITV in the UK is happening again today.
Big shorts were sold, and ITV's shares were sold in large quantities.
For an hour and a half, by the time the morning market closed, the day's highest had reached 15.6 pounds a share of British ITV shares.
Again it was suppressed to around Β£11.
Yesterday afternoon and this morning, the leek-level investors, or speculators, who bought British ITV shares, were dumbfounded.
Because this means that from yesterday afternoon to now, each of them has lost at least 30% of their capital on average.
It fell too hard!
At this time, some investors finally realized that this was a very hateful gouzhuang washing chips!
Playing the rat barn, playing the banker's handicap.
Is the Financial Services Authority (FSA) blind by such a bad behavior?
Are other regulators blind?
This market sentiment is reflected in the media.
It was in the afternoon and afternoon newspapers and news interviews that there was a lot of criticism of Abel Smith and ITV stocks.
Immediately after the afternoon market opened, the stock of British ITV began to shake off the decline in the morning and rise.
Almost the same script as yesterday.
This has made the questioning and criticism of Smiths Financial (UK) and ITV shares louder.
So much so that at night.
The Financial Services Authority (FSA) has had to step up.
said that they have investigated all the transaction records of Smith Financial Group (UK) for half a year this afternoon.
FAS said.
The findings suggest that Smiths Financial was not involved in market manipulation of UK ITV shares.
All transactions conducted by Smiths Financial in relation to ITV are in full compliance with the relevant UK regulatory regulations, and there are no irregularities.
But given the shares of ITV in the UK, these two days are very suspicious indeed.
Therefore, the FSA decided to suspend the trading of ITV shares in the UK for three days to prevent market makers from continuing to manipulate the market and avoid losses for investors.
At the same time, at the end of the notice, the FSA once again solemnly stated that investment is risky, and you need to be cautious.
The British ITV stock incident, which caused some uproar, was temporarily pressed by the regulatory authorities.
A large number of investors were unhappy with this result.
If Smith Finance hadn't messed around, who was doing the rat trap?
It's just that as the FSA said, there really isn't a bit of a violation in Smith Financial.
At least on the bright side, Smith Financial just didn't mess around.
Investors can punish Smith in other ways, and they can't achieve it at all.
And many people don't know that this night.
The FSA, which is the head of the Financial Services Authority of the United Kingdom.
Howard Davis, who is also Chairman of the Royal Bank of Scotland.
He appeared at Barbecoa's restaurant in London, accompanied by William Bout, son of the Marquess of Bout.
Barbecoa is located next to St. Paul's Cathedral, one of London's most famous landmarks, and has a bright and historic window that overlooks the Church.
The restaurant specializes in freshly grilled food. Tender and juicy steak with a rich red wine from France.
Many diners agree that this is the perfect food combination in London.
βCheers!β
A cheerful chorus sounded in the corner of the restaurant.
It can be found that Barbecoa has no other guests except for this table.
It's clear that Barbecoa is covered tonight.
On the wine table, Abel's crystal glass filled with red wine.
and Howard Davis, Fat William's wine glasses bumped into each other.
"Ah, Manchester United's derby against Manchester City today, I have to say it was really exciting! With a score of 3-1, I think the Red Devils will definitely win the Three Lions Cup this year!! β
Howard, who was thin and ruddy-faced, was holding a glass of red wine and talking with his eyebrows fluttering.
The Three Lions Cup is generally the British name for the Premier League championship trophy.
Because the design of the Premier League trophy is taken from the traditional "Three Lions" coat of arms of English football, which has a golden crown and three lions.
"Who's to say it's not? Haha, Beckham plus Ronaldo and Ruud van Nistelrooy, no one has ever played such a team! β
William Bout also said with a smile.
What the two were talking about was a local derby between Manchester United and Manchester City.
The result of the match was Manchester United's 3-1 thrashing of Manchester City.
And Willian is talking about the big three of the current Manchester United team.
Among them, Beckham is a superstar raised by Manchester United themselves.
Ruud van Nistelrooy was brought over from PSV Eindhoven by Alex Ferguson for a Β£19 million transfer fee in April last year.
None of this has anything to do with Abel.
At that time, Abel had not yet taken charge of Manchester United.
Only Ronaldo, who already has the title of alien, bought it from Inter Milan at the beginning of this year when Ferguson spent 32 million euros.
At this time, the alien had not yet started his 2002 World Cup show.
Coupled with Ferguson's means, the current Manchester United team has the blessing of the world's richest man, which is extremely attractive to players.
So Manchester United bought him, more than 10 million euros cheaper than when Real Madrid went to buy him a few months later.
The three football giants at their peak, under Alex Ferguson, showed terrifying power.
In the Premier League, he contributed a very beautiful game and a jaw-dropping scoreline.
For this, Manchester United fans are happy.
According to the survey, the Greater Manchester area is now also the best place in the UK to look at Abel Smith.
There are even Manchester United fans who call Abel "King of Manchester United".
Who told Abel to buy Manchester United, not only did Manchester United's results explode, but the whole team, including the general manager, head coach Ferguson and the main players, all praised Abel.
Whoever is called Manchester United now, the team can earn as much as they want, and the team will spend as much as they want. Whether it's the salary of the players or the salaries of other employees, it is a lot higher than that of other teams.
With such a good boss, what's wrong with holding a little bit?
Facing the two in front of him, he acted as if he was really a real Red Devils fan.
Abel smiled silently.
He had no doubt that it was Abu or any other team owner sitting here right now.
The object of praise from these two people in front of him will definitely become other teams.
However, everyone carries the sedan chair, not to mention that this time Howard Davis gave special face.
Abel then smiled and raised his glass again, "Cheers to the Red Devils, toast to football!" β
Howard and William looked at him, and they both smiled and raised their glasses again.
It's as if they're really celebrating the win of their favorite team.
And not because of their privately managed funds in Smith Financial, a single investment made huge profits.
It's all about football, isn't it?
