Long Island has always been the backyard of New York's rich.

In the city where land is at a premium, the skyline is constantly refreshed, and you can have a luxurious estate surrounded by lush trees, breathing the smell of earth and listening to the sound of dew falling from the leaves every day. Such a leisurely "slow life" is undoubtedly a luxury.

A luxury that only the rich can enjoy.

Seeing that Abel's attention was all on herself, Kayla nodded with satisfaction, "The address has been chosen, let's hold it at 227 Swan Wharf in Big Neck, it's big enough and beautiful." By the way, my dear, why are there so many donkeys and elephants in the invitation list for the cocktail party you prepared this time. Didn't you claim that this was a gathering of the financial industry? With so many people from both parties, it may change the nature of the banquet. ”

Kayla can be said to have great admiration for her boyfriend's gameplay and methods in manipulating Zhengzhi.

This time, Abel took the initiative to stir up trouble, which not only made him jump out of the original framework of the Elephant Party, but now he has become an existence that both sides have to work hard to win over.

Both sides are now avoiding him leaning towards the other.

It can be said that in this regard, this time his boyfriend maximized his own interests.

For Kayla Wilson, who came from a California consortium, she admires more than Abel making $10 billion at a time.

This is mainly because the California consortium is too weak in this regard.

Entrenched in such a good territory in California, the energy and military industry are extremely strong, and as a result, the influence on the local area is not even comparable to that of local donkeys and elephants......

There are so many consortia in the United States, and in terms of control over the localities, the California consortium ranks second to the bottom, so no one can grab the penultimate one.

It's as if this aspect of justice is inherently a weakness of the California consortium.

Now Abel has shown talent in this area again, and he is almost invincible in business.

How could this not make the princess of California even more favored.

"It's fine, although it was bad to do it before. But it's okay now. Now they're all begging me. Hey, according to the previous newspapers, I'm now one of the best examples of American dish cooking and seed oil. ”

Abel shook his head noncommittally and chuckled:

"Besides, most of the invited guests are from the financial industry. Except at the end of last year, I haven't held a drinking party in New York in my own name until now. Little Laura isn't here, so you can only help me host. ”

"As I said, don't mention her in front of me." Kayla said unpleasantly.

Abel looked at Kayla who glanced at herself, the curvature of the corners of her mouth, and knew that she was still very happy and useful about it, which undoubtedly meant that her relationship with herself had entered a new stage.

A stable phase.

Kayla is naturally very happy and excited about this, this is the first time she has hosted such a high-level drinking party as a hostess, or in New York, or on Wall Street, with the participation of donkeys and elephants!

She felt that if she was in California, even if she took her father's place as she wished, there was a high probability that she would not be able to hold it.

Wall Street is not a bird of the California consortium, and the California consortium is not taken seriously by donkeys and elephants.

In the U.S., a lot of the time, the California consortium doesn't have much to say. They are powerful and rich, but their voices are always quiet.

In this regard, it is not even comparable to Florida, which does not raise idlers......

In contrast, people who are very similar to California in many ways, but in fact, people who are a little weaker than California have a loud voice in the United States.

The last time she was in Washington, D.C., she accompanied Abel to a banquet, and Kayla felt that she had made herself in the limelight in the media, and she was even more glamorous in California circles.

She felt that this time was better, as a hostess, it was even more powerful than last time!

Of course, this reception is also very important for Abel.

He not only invited his Wall Street friends, but also important people from Donkey and Elephant, in order to take this opportunity to alleviate the impact of the turmoil he caused at the end of last month.

Even if he is the leader, he has to show the donkey and the elephant that he will not change his position at will.

lest the conflict with the donkey and the elephant intensify, and let them deal with themselves.

Even if this is unlikely, it is always necessary to prevent it.

……

……

Kayla is worthy of being similar to Yin Kana, a fighter among women, with a strong personality of a strong woman with a strong sense of professionalism and ambition.

She was tossed very hard for two nights in a row, but on the second day she still struggled to get up and had to go to work.

"I'm the general manager, what would happen if even I, the general manager of Wells Fargo, took the lead in taking a leave of absence?"

That's what she said to Abel.

Abel thought to himself, where are you the manager, at most you are just the regional president.

But Kayla is very persistent, even if her eyelids fight, she must go to work.

Abel wanted to pull her to do it again in the morning, but she refused, saying that she would come back in the evening to make up for him.

After breakfast, Abel dropped Kayla off to work and came to the Smith Building.

in the office.

Abel quickly scanned the bulletins sent by various companies, and there was a stack of today's newspapers on his desk, and the top one was a financial section, with the headline "The Canadian dollar is under sniping, the exchange rate is depreciating, and the economy is affected".

This has undoubtedly made Canadians seem a little dumbfounded, and a large number of people have recently begun to worry about queuing up to withdraw money to buy things.

And these situations were all analyzed by Abel and his subordinates a long time ago, so naturally they would not be surprised. On the contrary, it was a European entertainment version of the news, which made Abel still very concerned.

The marriage of the Italian national treasure goddess Monica Bellucci and the French genius Vincent Cassel lit up a red light, and a reporter photographed the two arguing.

In fact, since the two have been separated in the past two years, the outside world has not stopped speculating about the relationship between the two.

He picked it up and looked at it, and the newspaper didn't say any details.

But Abel knew that it was probably related to him.

The taste of the Italian national treasure goddess is very good.

That time in the garden, Monica "played" so well with herself.

At that time, I had a bad taste for her to talk to her husband, and I deliberately made the sound so loud.

As long as Vincent Cassel was a man, and then his IQ was a little more normal, he could feel something unusual at that time.

Abel remembers that at that time, it seemed that Monica had promised her husband that she would help with the role.

At that time, Vincent Cassel probably took this into account, so he didn't know.

Now for what reason did this Frenchman quarrel with his wife of an Italian national treasure?

Thinking of this, Abel was a little curious, asked David to come in and find Monica's contact information, and then called her.

But it didn't get through, and it seemed to be busy. David later confirmed that at this time in Europe, Monica Bellucci was filming with several European actresses.

The fashion documentary that Abel got for them started filming this month, that is, in September.

She and Sophie were busy.

In this case, Abel let go of his curiosity a little and started his own work.

With the increasing number of companies under Abel, he now has an extended time to read briefings every day, and sometimes when he sees some of the content of the briefing, he has to directly pick up the phone and ask the parties.

This management model has liberated his own time to a large extent, but it still takes about four or five hours a day to process, usually two hours in the morning, two hours in the afternoon, and occasionally a little more in the evening, which has become the norm.

Of course, there is no comparison with the workaholics like Apple's Tim Cook, who got up at 4:30 a.m. to read the briefing and worked 100 hours a week.

"The scariest thing in the world is that people who are richer than you work harder than you!"

Well, this is true, but in Abel's view, busyness cannot be equated with hard work or diligence. Busyness must be built on the basis of strategic vision and platform, otherwise it can only be "busy", falling into the cycle of getting busier and poorer - poorer and busier.

In this, the platform can be said to be very important.

Lao Ma said that he worked 16 hours a day in the company, sometimes more than 20 hours.

Sounds very diligent, scarier than 996. But have you ever thought that people don't have to work as hard as you when they work in the company.

When people are tired, they can directly rest in the luxurious private office, and they can also let the masseurs go directly to the spa to relax their bodies.

It is said that 20 hours a day is really used to do things, maybe at most four or five hours.

In the same way, the crazy working hours of successful people who are boasted by other media outlets contain some moisture in them.

Abel is not making excuses for only doing things for 4 or 5 hours a day.

He feels that he has a pair of eyes that can see through the future, and strategy is his greatest reliance, and doing everything himself will become a nightmare.

A successful person also needs to have one point, that is, self-knowledge.

If you don't know it, like after 2021, the boss of a domestic car brand let his daughter take the position and produced a lot of cars.

As a result, the sales volume of this brand fell from the top three domestic products to seven or eight in two years......

This is a sign of lack of self-knowledge.

Whether Abel is busy or not depends on his opinion. Some people will say that he is not busy at all, because he only did one thing all day, which was to read the briefing. What's more, he would think that he spends most of his time with women......

Well, if you have to say that, Abel can't help it, so he can only say with a sneer: "I don't have to stay up late to become the richest man in the world, no matter how hard you stay up late, you can only get dark circles under your eyes." ”

Abel, who was not busy, sorted out the briefing, opened the drawer and put it away, then shook the mouse in his hand, picked up the phone and prepared to hold a video conference call, and continued to pay attention to his short Canadian dollar.

At this time, the cell phone he had used to call Monica Bellucci just now rang.

Abel picked it up and looked at it, and found that it was a number from Europe, which was Monica's number.

I guess I'm done, right?

He thought about it, and casually answered the phone call from the Italian national treasure goddess.

"Ciao, dear Monica, you're finally calling me back? I'm a little anxious to wait. Abel responded with a smile.

"Ciao" is the most common way to say "hi" or "hello" in Italian.

Sometimes, though, "ciao" can also be translated as "goodbye," depending on the context in which the speech is being spoken.

Abel doesn't speak Italian, but the main languages in Europe are easy to say hello to.

For example, he has learned "stupid pig" in French, "lonely Terntak" in German, etc., and so on.

This is one of the pieces of advice given to him by his advisory panel.

When interacting with Europeans, the occasional greeting like this can lower the psychological defense of the other party, which is a small detail in the psychology of the business environment.

"When calling to greet, you can't use "ciao", you should say "pronto". But correcting your Italian speech is your Italian teacher's business. What's the matter with me, Mr. Smith? ”

In the microphone of the mobile phone, Monica's somewhat resentful voice came.

"Actually, it's nothing, I just want to care about you. Mainly I saw the news of your quarrel with Vincent Cassel in today's newspaper. I was a little worried about you, so I called and asked. ”

"Hehehe......" came Monica Bellucci's sneer, and then she continued to have some resentment:

"Why did I quarrel with Vincent, for the reason, Mr. Smith, you should be a little self-aware, right?"

"Okay, okay." Abel smiled, after all, he played with others, he smiled and said:

"It's all my fault. I just asked, and I said that I already have a good role for your husband. Why is he still arguing with you? ”

Abel was curious about this. Vincent Cassel probably knows what happened to him and his wife.

For the sake of the role and acting career, this Frenchman can endure it for so long in front.

It doesn't make sense that I've just gotten the role now, so I can't bear it, right?

The drama has not been filmed yet, and the role can be canceled at any time.

"Hoo ......"

Abel took a deep breath as she heard Monica.

"Mr. Smith, do you really want to know why?"

"If you are willing to say, then I want to know. If you don't want to say it, then it doesn't matter if I don't know. ”

This is Abel's true words, he is just gossiping about the psychological attack, plus looking at the beautiful photos of Monica Bellucci in the newspaper pictures.

He misses the perfect body of the Italian national treasure goddess.

So the main purpose of making that phone call was to get her to come to New York.

After all, in New York, he only has Kayla and Hearst sisters now, and he can't solve the fire.

Monica, who is so feminine that she overflows, becomes a member of the "fire brigade" that he plans to get for himself.

As for filming or something, you can ask for leave or postpone, it's easy for him, the big boss, to nod his head.

"Well, since you want to know. I'll tell you, then. ”

Abel heard in her voice that she seemed to breathe a sigh of relief.

"Vinson didn't quarrel with me because...... It's not because I'm doing that kind of thing with you! ”

Hearing her say this, Abel became even more curious. Even this kind of thing can be endured, and the role is also obtained, so why does Vincent Cassel still quarrel with his wife?

"The reason why he quarreled with me was because I was pregnant! And the child is not his! ”

Oh, that's why. The wife is pregnant, the child is not his own, no wonder Vincent Cassel is so angry that he quarrels with her.

Compared with the previous thing, the latter thing is indeed more intolerable to men.

Wait, Monica is pregnant?

"The father of the child is ......," Abel thought of a possibility.

"Who else could it be? Dear Mr. Smith, Ever since you took me... Later. Your female bodyguard has been with me all the time! I can't fool around with other men at all! ”

The voice from Monica Bellucci was even more resentful.
