Simon's meeting with Zheng Shoudong lasted only 15 minutes. He sent out a director of Bank of New York Mellon as a sweet date and directly began to arrange work for the other party to investigate the debt situation of several top chaebols in South Korea. As a result, Zheng Shoudong can only stay in North America for three days. After some job handover, he needs to return to Asia again. For the time being, he is still stationed in Hong Kong to form his own team.
There will be people in Asia who will cooperate with each other.
After Zheng Shoudong left, Simon met with three other people at other times of the day, named Cui YanXu, Zheng Xiangyuan and Zong Zhenghao.
Cui YanXu, like Zheng Shoudong, is 37 years old, Korean American, first generation immigrant. He graduated from Business School of Columbia University and previously worked for Lehman Brothers.
Zheng Xiangyuan and Zong Zhenghao are from South Korea. The similarity lies in that they both come from the newly disintegrated Hanbao consortium.
Zheng Xiangyuan, 41, who still has a background of studying abroad, graduated from New York University. Before he lost his job due to the collapse of Han Bao, he was a senior personnel officer of the consortium.
Zong Zhenghao is the only native Korean who has no background of studying abroad. He only went to Seoul University. He is 37 years old. He previously worked in the financial department of Hanbao steel and belongs to the upper middle management. Because the bankruptcy case of Hanbao steel has also been implicated, the westero system has spent some means these days to extract the other party.
Four people can be described as Simon quite targeted selection.
First of all, their previous work involved four aspects: legal affairs, administration, personnel and finance. They complement each other. At the same time, they have excellent foundation and many years of work experience, and they do not lack the potential to be independent.
Secondly, they are all over 35 years old, with a family and a family. Before that, they were not successful. They are basically sure that they have been smoothed out by the society. In addition to their nationality or background of studying abroad, even the last Zong Zhenghao is not clean and easy to manipulate. On the other hand, compared with the young people who have some national spirit, they suddenly get a chance to develop. These people will not have too much resistance to help the westero system harvest their own country.
Finally, four Korean faces will be active among some Korean business giants in the future. As long as they pay a little attention, they will not arouse the antipathy and vigilance of the Korean people.
Simon didn't meet the four together at the same time, just in case. For a long time, the four will work on their own, and they won't be tied together until the westrow system confirms that they can be trusted. If they fail to pass the test, they will be abandoned in terms of ability and loyalty.
And it's just Simon's first puppets.
There will be more in the future.
My last job on Monday was Titanic.
After more than a year of tossing, the film is almost certain to burn 200 million dollars, and it has not been completely completed until now.
This time it's about the soundtrack.
After Simon intervened a little, the soundtrack of the film chose the original James Horner. However, because of Simon's big butterfly, even the original soundtrack, Horner is not likely to write the handed down classic that highlights Titanic.
Simon still has to go out in person.
From 3 p.m. to nearly 7 p.m. for four hours, he played a sample film and gave some suggestions for revision according to his memory. Simon's main points on the soundtrack were Scottish bagpipes and "my heart will go on" by brainstorming.
Frankly speaking, although Cameron's history of burning 200 million dollars has not been changed, it's a lot of pleasure to change the heroine from fat Wen to Rachel Vichy.
During the period, we also discussed the issue with Amy who came to watch the film at the same time.
The film will be premiered at the Venice Film Festival in the second half of the year.
The premiere of Titanic at the Tokyo Film Festival was mainly due to the fact that the Tokyo Film Festival in October was closer to the end of the year. However, the Japanese audience didn't seem to buy it. Of course, they skipped this time. Even if the Venice Film Festival in September is a little earlier, if the feedback from the premiere is still not good enough, it can give danielis time to make up for entertainment.
As soon as Simon stepped into the hall of the shell villa, he saw several people sitting on the other side of the curtain wall chatting with each other.
As she walked by, Janet got up first, then Veronica and Melbourne, who had just stayed by her side.
"How's today, my dear?" Janet hugged Simon, said hello, took the man by the arm, turned around and explained, "my aunt came back this afternoon. There's something wrong with AOL."
Simon nodded slightly and looked at her son, who was still holding a small hand by Veronica.
Melbourne was swept by his father's eyes, subconsciously released Nana's hand and said, "good evening, Dad."
Simon showed a little coldness: "well."
The little guy quickly said, "aunt Jennie, they are preparing dinner. I'll help them."
After that, run quickly.
Janet was almost laughing as she watched the "interaction" between father and son. When Simon and Veronica said hello again and pulled him to sit down, she still couldn't help laughing and said, "he's always so cruel to Moore. Don't you find that he's getting less and less close to you?""Why should father and son be so close?"
“……”
Janet almost wants to roll her eyes, but think about it, it's like It makes sense.
She also knows about the next generation.
Just like my father, he has always been strict with her brothers, and now he can't be said to be close to them, but he is very precious, the grandson of Moore.
Yeah.
And my aunt and Moore.
It's about It's family heredity.
Simon was pulled to sit down by Janet, but he was still in a bad mood. He glanced at Janet, who was smiling beside him: "are you two here to have a rest and let Jane prepare dinner alone?"
Since early October last year, Jennifer has been pregnant for more than seven months.
Janet sniffed and said, "no, Sophie's here in the morning. She's in the kitchen."
There are also some small stomach Fei.
Even if Sophia Fischer doesn't come, there's no need for Jennifer to prepare dinner herself in this villa.
Some guy is just jealous.
Hum.
Simon saw what Janet said and didn't go on. He looked at Veronica, who was sipping a cup of coffee across the street: "what's wrong with AOL?"
Vistro system is the core three in the Internet industry. The audit of igrit, which Simon values most, has ended, and AOL is ranked second by Simon.
When Veronica saw Simon, she looked up slightly and said, "I found that AOL's network budget in many regions in the past few years has been abnormally overspent. Steve Case thinks that with the current stock market situation, we should not go deep into it, so as not to cause the continuous decline of the stock price. If case doesn't cooperate, it's difficult for my team to continue."
Although Simon has been abroad most of the time for more than a month, he has not relaxed his attention to the NASDAQ.
As of today's closing of the east coast stock market, the NASDAQ index, which has been plummeting for more than a month, has fallen to a low of 4353 points, with a cumulative decline of 38% compared with the peak of 7045 points on the day of the collapse of the NASDAQ index on March 24.
The collapse of the Nasdaq stock index after 2000 was a relatively slow process. During this period, there were several rebounds. This time, according to Simon's original prediction, the higher the rise, the fiercer the fall. The 38% decline, not counting the waist cut, also reached the chest and belly. The NASDAQ stock market, once as high as $9.3 trillion, now has only $5.6 trillion left. In just over a month, 3.7 trillion dollars of stock wealth evaporated.
The three giants of westero system, igritte, Cisco and AOL, once the leading stocks of NASDAQ, also bear the brunt of the decline this time.
Simon really shouldn't fight now for the sake of stock prices.
pays attention to the official account: Book Club headquarters, focusing on sending cash and coins.
However, Simon has always attached more importance to the long-term development of the westero system.
After a little consideration, Simon quickly said to Veronica, "I'll talk to Steve after dinner." after that, Simon turned to Janet and said, "next, arrange two more female guards for her to ensure that there is at least one group of people around her all the time."
Before Janet spoke, Veronica said, "I don't want so many people to follow."
Just as Sophia fishy came by, Simon got up straight and said, "that's it."
With that, he welcomed Sophia.
Janet looked at the man's back after he got up, made a face at Veronica, and then simply got up to his aunt and said, "well, aunt, you must have more things to do than us. I also know that some people are in a hurry and can do anything."
Veronica Doug: "in fact, the problem is not so serious. Over the past few years the new technology bubble fever, the budget overlay of the AOL network is basically expected."
"I know, I know," Janet continued with a smile, "just in case."
Simon and Sophia next to him hugged and exchanged greetings. They came back to the sofa to sit down and talked about other topics.
As for AOL, Simon also expected the problems there. Even in the past few years, he has been aware of the problem. He just turned a blind eye to some overspending after he made sure that AOL's network deployment in various regions was completed with quality and quantity guaranteed.
This time, to put it bluntly, Simon is going to "borrow money from the problem" to tighten up the financial system and clean up a group of people at the same time, so as to clean up the enterprises in the westero system.
After chatting for a while, Jennifer, with her stomach in her hand, came over and told everyone that dinner was ready. Everyone went to the restaurant together.
After dinner, Simon connected Steve Case's video connection and gave the AOL boss a rude reprimand. When Steve Case saw that the boss was angry, he made a slight rebuttal, but it didn't work, so he had to be soft.
Simon did not rest assured because of Keith's verbal promise, but also depends on the other party's next performance.
Simon doesn't mind if Steve case goes against the rules. As for the internal turmoil and the decline of stock price, Simon doesn't mind. If a company in the westrow system can't run because it loses an executive, it's better not to run such a company.As for the stock price, it is even more illusory.
The completion of this purge will only make AOL develop better in the future, as will the long-term stock price trend.
The next day was Tuesday, May 20.
Simon still arrived at the company early. Before 9 o'clock today, he left the time for new world director Denny Morris to discuss the publicity of upcoming films such as American Pie and the production of rush hour 2.
Denny Morris also mentioned the growing popularity of Hong Kong.
Hong Kong films have experienced a big crash in the past two years. I didn't expect that it would turn around again so soon. At least, for Hong Kong filmmakers, it would turn around.
In addition to Dove Wu and Fage, who are looking for the popular project recently, Simon also heard that some other familiar names will enter Hollywood, such as Xu laoguai. Relying on dove Wu, several major Hollywood studios are in contact with each other, including new world pictures and MGM.
Simon just remembers that on the time line, Xu laoguai did test the water in Hollywood during this period, and cooperated with action star Shanger Winton in the movie "Thunderbolt".
And then there's no then.
In Simon's opinion, Xu's talent is better than Wu's. Hollywood's failure can only be said to be bad luck, not meeting the right project.
Speaking of Xu laoguai, Simon also remembers the idea of shooting the trilogy "Shushan Zhuan" when he was in China a few days ago.
Once upon a time, "Shushan Zhuan" was an obsession of Xu laoguai. Unfortunately, the filmmaker failed in the 1980s and the beginning of the new century for two consecutive written tests on the IP of water, so that the Shushan series became a forbidden area for other filmmakers.
As for the reasons for the failure, it is quite complicated.
From Simon's point of view, one of the most important is the budget.
Although the two times were big, they were not big enough. After all, the production specifications of such a bizarre series of immortal swordsman in the 1980s should be compared with that of alien ET in the same period. The 2001 version should also have the investment level of hero. It's a pity that Xu's budget is not well-off twice.
Therefore, it can be said that the two films before and after are only semi-finished products.
On the other hand, there is no doubt about Xu's talent, but sometimes he is too ambitious. When he gives enough budget, he must have some restrictions to avoid deviation.
It's like a script.
Simon believes that both projects will have a good story at the beginning of production, but in the actual implementation process, because there are too many ideas to realize, most of the money has been spent early, and it is inevitable that the project will be stretched out and can only rush to work, and the result can be imagined.
After such consideration, Simon made up his mind.
This project can be handed over to Xu laoguai again, but he must also keep a close eye on the other party and not fly too fast.
In the office of Denise studios.
A little distracted to think about the story of Shushan, Simon said to Denny Morris, "since everyone is fighting, you can pay more attention to it. However, we don't want to fight, just see if there is a suitable project."
Denny Morris nodded and said: "in fact, recently there happened to be one from Jiahe, named" phantom agent ". I have read the script. The idea is based on cultivating top agents through subconscious training. It's a very good idea. The plot is similar to last year's" black man ". By the way, Jiahe also invited Miss Jiang from China, and she has agreed to play 。”
Simon was not impressed with the film. He was about to say that he would look at the script and the team first. After listening to what Miss Jiang was mentioned by Denny Morris, he was a little stunned and then remembered that it was Jiang Anqi.
Please report us if you find any errors so we can fix it asap!
Simon's meeting with Zheng Shoudong lasted only 15 minutes. He sent out a director of Bank of New York Mellon as a sweet date and directly began to arrange work for the other party to investigate the debt situation of several top chaebols in South Korea.

Janet hugged Simon, said hello, took the man by the arm, turned around and explained, "my aunt came back this afternoon. There's something wrong with AOL." Simon nodded slightly and looked at her son, who was still holding a small hand by Veronica. Melbourne was swept by his father's eyes, subconsciously released Nana's hand and said, "good evening, Dad." Simon showed a little coldness: "well." The little guy quickly said, "aunt Jennie, they are preparing dinner. I'll help them." After that, run quickly. Janet was almost laughing as she watched the "interaction" between father and son. When Simon and Veronica said hello again and pulled him to sit down, she still couldn't help laughing and said, "he's always so cruel to Moore. Don't you find that he's getting less and less close to you?""Why should father and son be so close?" Janet almost wants to roll her eyes, but think about it, it's like It makes sense. She also knows about the next generation. Just like my father, he has always been strict with her brothers, and now he can't be said to be close to them, but he is very precious, the grandson of Moore. Yeah. And my aunt and Moore. It's about It's family heredity. Simon was pulled to sit down by Janet, but he was still in a bad mood. He glanced at Janet, who was smiling beside him: "are you two here to have a rest and let Jane prepare dinner alone?" Since early October last year, Jennifer has been pregnant for more than seven months. Janet sniffed and said, "no, Sophie's here in the morning. She's in the kitchen." There are also some small stomach Fei. Even if Sophia Fischer doesn't come, there's no need for Jennifer to prepare dinner herself in this villa. Some guy is just jealous. Hum. Simon saw what Janet said and didn't go on. He looked at Veronica, who was sipping a cup of coffee across the street: "what's wrong with AOL?" Vistro system is the core three in the Internet industry. The audit of igrit, which Simon values most, has ended, and AOL is ranked second by Simon. When Veronica saw Simon, she looked up slightly and said, "I found that AOL's network budget in many regions in the past few years has been abnormally overspent. Steve Case thinks that with the current stock market situation, we should not go deep into it, so as not to cause the continuous decline of the stock price. If case doesn't cooperate, it's difficult for my team to continue." Although Simon has been abroad most of the time for more than a month, he has not relaxed his attention to the NASDAQ. As of today's closing of the east coast stock market, the NASDAQ index, which has been plummeting for more than a month, has fallen to a low of 4353 points, with a cumulative decline of 38% compared with the peak of 7045 points on the day of the collapse of the NASDAQ index on March 24. The collapse of the Nasdaq stock index after 2000 was a relatively slow process. During this period, there were several rebounds. This time, according to Simon's original prediction, the higher the rise, the fiercer the fall. The 38% decline, not counting the waist cut, also reached the chest and belly. The NASDAQ stock market, once as high as $9.3 trillion, now has only $5.6 trillion left. In just over a month, 3.7 trillion dollars of stock wealth evaporated. The three giants of westero system, igritte, Cisco and AOL, once the leading stocks of NASDAQ, also bear the brunt of the decline this time. Simon really shouldn't fight now for the sake of stock prices. pays attention to the official account: Book Club headquarters, focusing on sending cash and coins. However, Simon has always attached more importance to the long-term development of the westero system. After a little consideration, Simon quickly said to Veronica, "I'll talk to Steve after dinner." after that, Simon turned to Janet and said, "next, arrange two more female guards for her to ensure that there is at least one group of people around her all the time." Before Janet spoke, Veronica said, "I don't want so many people to follow." Just as Sophia fishy came by, Simon got up straight and said, "that's it." With that, he welcomed Sophia. Janet looked at the man's back after he got up, made a face at Veronica, and then simply got up to his aunt and said, "well, aunt, you must have more things to do than us. I also know that some people are in a hurry and can do anything." Veronica Doug: "in fact, the problem is not so serious. Over the past few years the new technology bubble fever, the budget overlay of the AOL network is basically expected." "I know, I know," Janet continued with a smile, "just in case." Simon and Sophia next to him hugged and exchanged greetings. They came back to the sofa to sit down and talked about other topics. As for AOL, Simon also expected the problems there. Even in the past few years, he has been aware of the problem. He just turned a blind eye to some overspending after he made sure that AOL's network deployment in various regions was completed with quality and quantity guaranteed. This time, to put it bluntly, Simon is going to "borrow money from the problem" to tighten up the financial system and clean up a group of people at the same time, so as to clean up the enterprises in the westero system. After chatting for a while, Jennifer, with her stomach in her hand, came over and told everyone that dinner was ready. Everyone went to the restaurant together. After dinner, Simon connected Steve Case's video connection and gave the AOL boss a rude reprimand. When Steve Case saw that the boss was angry, he made a slight rebuttal, but it didn't work, so he had to be soft. Simon did not rest assured because of Keith's verbal promise, but also depends on the other party's next performance. Simon doesn't mind if Steve case goes against the rules. As for the internal turmoil and the decline of stock price, Simon doesn't mind. If a company in the westrow system can't run because it loses an executive, it's better not to run such a company.As for the stock price, it is even more illusory. The completion of this purge will only make AOL develop better in the future, as will the long-term stock price trend. The next day was Tuesday, May 20. Simon still arrived at the company early. Before 9 o'clock today, he left the time for new world director Denny Morris to discuss the publicity of upcoming films such as American Pie and the production of rush hour 2. Denny Morris also mentioned the growing popularity of Hong Kong. Hong Kong films have experienced a big crash in the past two years. I didn't expect that it would turn around again so soon. At least, for Hong Kong filmmakers, it would turn around. In addition to Dove Wu and Fage, who are looking for the popular project recently, Simon also heard that some other familiar names will enter Hollywood, such as Xu laoguai. Relying on dove Wu, several major Hollywood studios are in contact with each other, including new world pictures and MGM. Simon just remembers that on the time line, Xu laoguai did test the water in Hollywood during this period, and cooperated with action star Shanger Winton in the movie "Thunderbolt". And then there's no then. In Simon's opinion, Xu's talent is better than Wu's. Hollywood's failure can only be said to be bad luck, not meeting the right project. Speaking of Xu laoguai, Simon also remembers the idea of shooting the trilogy "Shushan Zhuan" when he was in China a few days ago. Once upon a time, "Shushan Zhuan" was an obsession of Xu laoguai. Unfortunately, the filmmaker failed in the 1980s and the beginning of the new century for two consecutive written tests on the IP of water, so that the Shushan series became a forbidden area for other filmmakers. As for the reasons for the failure, it is quite complicated. From Simon's point of view, one of the most important is the budget. Although the two times were big, they were not big enough. After all, the production specifications of such a bizarre series of immortal swordsman in the 1980s should be compared with that of alien ET in the same period. The 2001 version should also have the investment level of hero. It's a pity that Xu's budget is not well-off twice. Therefore, it can be said that the two films before and after are only semi-finished products. On the other hand, there is no doubt about Xu's talent, but sometimes he is too ambitious. When he gives enough budget, he must have some restrictions to avoid deviation. It's like a script. Simon believes that both projects will have a good story at the beginning of production, but in the actual implementation process, because there are too many ideas to realize, most of the money has been spent early, and it is inevitable that the project will be stretched out and can only rush to work, and the result can be imagined. After such consideration, Simon made up his mind. This project can be handed over to Xu laoguai again, but he must also keep a close eye on the other party and not fly too fast. In the office of Denise studios. A little distracted to think about the story of Shushan, Simon said to Denny Morris, "since everyone is fighting, you can pay more attention to it. However, we don't want to fight, just see if there is a suitable project." Denny Morris nodded and said: "in fact, recently there happened to be one from Jiahe, named" phantom agent ". I have read the script. The idea is based on cultivating top agents through subconscious training. It's a very good idea. The plot is similar to last year's" black man ". By the way, Jiahe also invited Miss Jiang from China, and she has agreed to play Simon was not impressed with the film. He was about to say that he would look at the script and the team first. After listening to what Miss Jiang was mentioned by Denny Morris, he was a little stunned and then remembered that it was Jiang Anqi.
