AEc Capital's research institute cooperation with the London School of Economics is becoming more and more mature, and the Mars Phase I Fund is operating well, and Pan Weidi, who manages the entire quantitative trading department, suggests that similar cooperation with other universities can be considered in the future.

For example, Columbia University. ARm and Margaret's clothing brands are both in the stage of rapid development, and Munters is responsible for post-investment management, and it is foreseeable that he will be in charge of the venture capital business.

Brandon led the investment team to Minnesota to advance the family office's first land purchase.

The privatization of British Steel, in which the Hall family participated, came out in November, and Helena could handle it; The Benaske merger was closed at the end of the year without any surprises.

In this way, Hall really doesn't have any major work that needs to be spent on energy. It's more of a trivial matter: Leeds United, for example, knelt down three times in a row, and the journey to the First Division was clouded.

General manager Renard hurriedly reported to him that coach Johan Cruyff's favorite technical flow master Michel Laudrup could not adapt well to the League One, and minor injuries were constantly being kicked and scrapped.

For example, Brandon is very close to barrister Herbert, and vaguely excludes Luca, the head of the security team, who has had a few separate meals with the art dealer Gagosian.

To sum up, it is nothing more than the competition of rights that will inevitably occur after the expansion of interest groups.

"Nancy, do you have any ambitions?" As the cruise ship returned to port, Hall asked casually as he leaned on the deck railing.

Cheng Chen showed just the right confident smile and replied appropriately: "My short-term goal is to become a qualified assistant candidate, and long-term planning ......"

"It's also an inevitability." Hall threw the crumbs of bread in his hand hard, and several seagulls flew and circled.

Cheng Chen was silent. On the way back to the estate, you can occasionally see a few trucks passing by, loaded with building materials needed for the estate.

Long Island is only about an hour's drive from Manhattan, and in the 20s, a large number of wealthy people came to Long Island to buy land to build villas and estates.

Holmai's estate is located in East Hampton, an old and wealthy district, with an area of more than 200 acres. The tarmac, the private beach, the big garden, you name it.

The manor was a dowry prepared by a wealthy American at the end of the last century to marry his daughter to a ruined aristocrat of England, an almost perfect replica of the ruined aristocracy's former home.

Therefore, the decoration style is quite similar to the Hall family's Orange Palace. Due to disrepair, the price is very cheap, only 3.5 million US dollars, and the renovation budget is the same as the selling price, or even hundreds of thousands.

This is a common market for buying luxury homes. While the houses Hall bought in London's Chelsea borough and Manhattan's Central Park neighborhood cost only a few million dollars, the renovated villa in Mayfair cost nearly 10 million.

This manor on Long Island was just bought by him after he came back from London a few days ago, and it will take a long time to complete the decoration, but the check-in reception can be held first.

“may-ling？” Hall carefully looked at a set of pinyin on the list of invited guests, and then looked at Cheng Chen, who was about to speak and stopped, and asked, "Is it the Mrs. Song of the Jiang family?" "He suddenly had a confused feeling that a historical figure had come into reality, well, blame him for not learning history well.

In fact, Mrs. Song lives some distance from the manor, and is not considered a neighbor. And as far as I know, she lives in a secluded and low-key way, and she is accompanied by multiple security personnel on every trip. Cheng Chen explained.

Hall raised his eyebrows in confusion: "So what do you want to express?" ”

"Mr. Mayor's wife suggested in a private name that we invite Mrs. Song, and the mayor is sure to attend the reception party, and I think he will turn the party into a political show."

"Nancy, do you remember, I used to say that you are not strong enough to be my assistant. But anyway, Brandon wasn't on a business trip, and you had the opportunity to show me what you were capable of, and it turned out that you did a good job. Hall picked up the pen and crossed out the list of names.

Cheng Chen quietly clenched his fists and swung it, controlling his inner excitement and bowing slightly.

"It seems that this year's general election is indeed very fierce, and even a town mayor dares to beat my idea." Hall shook his head again and again, and made up his mind to have a goal next - to study in peace and avoid the limelight, and wait until the dust settles before jumping out.

………… On September 17, the autumn rain came unexpectedly. The rain came in a hurry, but the pedestrians were not in a hurry, walking in groups in groups and talking and laughing in the rain.

Several young people with Asian faces stood in front of the apartment building holding slogans and posters, enthusiastically handing out flyers and screaming in kimchi-flavored accents.

"Let's watch the opening ceremony of the Olympic Games! All-you-can-eat free drinks and desserts! As soon as the handsome black-haired British man read the words on the slogan, he was dragged into the apartment building by a muscular companion next to him.

"Don't believe their Hugo, they took the embassy's sponsorship." The muscular man glared angrily, and stopped several Asian faces who wanted to come over and talk.

There are several dormitories on the Columbia campus for freshmen. These senior Koreans specially blocked the door of the apartment to fool the freshmen with no social experience, publicized how good the Olympics were held in their country, guided the freshmen to express their recognition and praise, and then sent them back to China as material for positive publicity.

The most important Koreans like to use contrasting words, stepping on the previous hosts to put gold on their faces. Muscle guy Mark was trapped.

Back in the dormitory room, a small TV screen was broadcasting the opening ceremony of the Olympic Games. The polite black man with a pair of glasses on his face quickly stood up from the TV, stretched out his hand and said, "Welcome, Hugo, you are very welcome to be a guest." ”

"Thank you, Danielle, I'm glad you invited me to watch the opening ceremony of the Olympics." Hall smiled back, put down the snack dessert he was holding, and shook his hand.

"Don't do that, I said, we've been together for two weeks, okay!" Mark shrugged his shoulders and spread his hands, imitating his English accent and saying funny: "Hello, Daniel, I am Hugo Hall, an aristocrat from England; Oh, and in front of me stood an English nobleman, and I had to be a gentleman. ”

"Hell, where is your accent?" Little Black Danielle couldn't help but laugh. Hall pretended to think and rubbed his chin: "York, only Yorkshire hillbillies speak like that. The smile on Danielle's face froze for a moment.

Mark bumped him on the shoulder: "This guy is a Yorkshire hillbilly, let me see what fancy desserts he brought us." "Two weeks after the start of school is enough to distinguish between social cattle and social fear, and Mark is obviously the former.

With him lively, the time passed quickly while eating and chatting, and the opening ceremony finally came to an end after the Olympic flame roasted 2,400 doves of peace.

"Although the dove of peace died in the flames of the mistake is cruel, I have to say that this year's theme song is unexpectedly good. Arirang ~ The fusion of ethnic elements and popular elements is great. Danielle commented as he took a small bite of dessert.

Mark shook his head again and again in disagreement: "Come on, lyrical songs have long been outdated." Dance music is popular now, and our time needs passion! "The two sides are at loggerheads, and a third party is urgently needed.

"To be honest, I don't know enough about pop music." Hall raised his hand in surrender. Today's popular music trends are earthy enough for him, and the living environment in which he lives basically has no room for pop music.

The people around him who will listen to him with a mouth full of FK's gangster rap, or

"I'm not my child's father" is a popular song?

"I can't imagine how boring your life is, but I'm glad you met me." Mark flipped through a CD from the bedside, "Debbie Gibson, my treasure, the first album and three platinum sales, come and listen to the most trendy music for you!" Hall saw the girl next door wearing a round hat and combing air bangs on the CD cover, and his eyes were big, and he approved, "Pretty pretty." ”

"Hey, what do you think?! She is only 18 years old this year, recognized as a new generation of jade girl sweetheart, and some time ago she also sang at the Atlantic Records annual concert. ”

"That's a top label, and not everyone can go on stage at the anniversary concert! It's only Debbie's first debut to buy three platinum potential diva, three platinum, oh, that's tens of millions of dollars in income! Mark played the CD in an exaggerated gesture and babbled.

The music sounded, and when he heard it again, Danielle couldn't help but correct: "Revenue, that's just revenue." The cost of the film must be deducted, and the company will share a large part of the balabala in order to calculate the revenue. ”

“…… Even if it's a few million, it's enough for us to earn in a lifetime. The current record industry is really in its prime, and it's not too easy to make money. Mark turned to complaining as he spoke.

Hall said thoughtfully, "So this Ms. Debbie is the signature star of Atlantic Records?" ”

"Uh, almost, although there is still Cher...... But Debbie is young enough, she's only eighteen, she's a singer-songwriter......"
