When Yu Tingyu left, Simon leaned against the back of the mahogany chair, took a sip of tea, continued to enjoy the scenery outside the window, and casually asked Ren Jingxi opposite: "how's your side? I heard that a recent Kung Fu reality show is very good?"
"Yes," Ren Jingxi was inexplicably happy to hear him talk to himself. He just felt that he was the same as Wuling for a moment. He continued: "however, he only plans to do one season. It was reminded that this kind of program with real fighting tendency is not in line with the current environment."
Simon smiled: "yes, just make a fuss in the film. In reality, it's really bad."
Ren Jingxi's beautiful eyes glanced over: "you, ah, really look like Chinese."
Simon deliberately raised his chin slightly and said proudly, "I have a Chinese name."
Ren Jingxi was curious: "what?"
Mo Wuling also opened his eyes slightly.
Before Simon could speak, Chen Qing said, "Lianhua westero."
“……”
“……”
Simon pretended to stare angrily at a girl, smiled, shook his head and said, "it's just a joke. My serious Chinese name has Chinese characteristics. It's Jianguo, westero Jianguo. How about it?"
“……”
“……”
“……”
Now the three girls are speechless together.
In fact, Chen Qing has heard her boss joke before. However, it is obvious that neither Chen Qing nor the other two girls can ever get to this deep-sea stem separated by a whole parallel time and space.
After a short silence, Ren Jingxi remembered one of his own things and said again, "Simon, speaking of name, I've always planned to change my company. The name of huanzhu film and television is too narrow. This time, I happen to ask your opinion."
When Ren Jingxi said this, Chen Qing became alert. However, before she thought of an excuse to stop, Simon said, "do you have any ideas?"
Ren Jingxi looked directly at a man and said, "Weijing media, what do you think?"
Simon shook his head and smiled, "is that too straightforward?"
Mo Wuling also looked surprised. Unexpectedly... It's too bold. However, I can't help thinking. If I, uh, Wei Wu and Wei Ling don't seem to have Wei Jing, it sounds pleasant.
Chen Qing finally reacted and rushed to answer: "yes, there will be opinions on changing the name. It may also cause a lot of speculation. Anyway, it's too high-profile and bad."
Because a man was there, Ren Jingxi was not afraid of Chen Qing. He retorted, "I'm not afraid of these tongue chewing people."
Then he looked at someone expectantly.
Simon shrugged: "if you don't think there's a problem with the name, of course I have no problem."
Seriously, Weijing, the name is really too straightforward and high-profile, but Simon can really ignore these in his current position. As long as the opposite Nizi can bear some consequences of the name.
"That's it." Ren Jingxi didn't give someone a chance to repent. His beautiful face jumped with a little joy: "I'll call the capital to go through the renaming formalities later."
Seeing this, Chen Qing looked pitifully at Simon: "boss, I want it too."
Simon put the almost bottomed tea cup on the table and was about to get the teapot next to him. Mo Wuling had picked it up, leaned over slightly to renew his tea, nodded to the girl to thank him and turned to Chen Qing: "what do you want?"
"Wei Qing," Chen Qing said, "I'm going to register a company, too. It's called Wei Qing."
"That sounds far fetched, doesn't it?"
When the words "Weijing" were put together, they somehow felt very harmonious. "Weiqing" was suddenly a little different.
Chen Qingdu is coquettish. She also holds her boss's big hand and starts shaking: "I want this."
Simon can only promise again, "I don't care. It's yours anyway."
Talking so casually, the time soon came to noon.
Simon and the three girls had lunch together and sent Ren Jingxi, who had not left yet, to visit the garden. Together with Chen Qing, they returned to the study on the second floor of the three-story study building.
A map of the world has been hung here in advance.
Simon went straight to the theme, picked up a pen, drew a big circle in Southeast Asia and said to Chen Qing: "next, the investment layout of Westeros system in Asia will be adjusted, and the investment strategy for China will remain unchanged. However, at the same time, we should strengthen the development of Southeast Asia."
Standing beside her boss, Chen Qing scanned the national territory of Southeast Asia one by one and said curiously, "boss, why?"
Southeast Asia was just destroyed by international speculative capital led by the United States, such as Soros, three years ago. In Chen Qing's view, this actually has the consideration of restraining the economic development of Southeast Asian countries.
Now, why the other way around?
Simon did not hide, but also reached out to make a virtual circle in Mexico under the United States, Ukraine in Eastern Europe and Angola in Africa, and said, "it's very simple. Considering the interests of the Westeros system, I don't want to put my eggs in one basket."
Chen Qing blinked. If she realized something, she bent her mouth and said, "I always think the boss is optimistic about China. Now it seems that I still underestimated the boss's optimistic about China?"
Simon didn't deny it. He smiled and reached out, pinched Chen Qing's chin and said, "the problem is, you still only see half."
Chen Qing tried to lower her head and hook her boss's big hand with her chin. She failed. Hearing the speech, she tilted her head slightly to think. A moment later, some uncertain light flashed and hesitated: "boss, you, um, you're not optimistic about the future of the United States?"
Simon didn't answer immediately, but talked about another thing that seemed irrelevant: "have you known some history of the age of great navigation?"
Chen Qing shook her head in doubt: "not much."
Simon came forward a little and knocked on the Spanish territory of Europe: "the first maritime overlord, Spain, at its peak, and then the sun never sets Empire, was just a group of pirates in the eyes of Spaniards. Guess how Spain declined?"
Chen Qing shook her head directly this time: "I don't know."
Simon smiled and said: "the decline of the country often has quite comprehensive reasons, which can not be simply because of one aspect. However, one of the most important things about the decline of Spain is that at the peak, Spain controlled more than 80% of the world's gold and silver mining rights."
Chen Qing was a little confused and didn't quite understand the causal relationship for a while.
Isn't it a good thing to master more than 80% of the world's gold and silver deposits?
Simon continued: "Your first reaction is probably that this is not a good thing. The problem is that because Spain has mastered a huge amount of gold and silver mineral resources and almost has an inexhaustible currency commonly used in the world at that time, Spain continues to give up other low profit industries. What it needs is directly bought with money, so that in the end, even warships and arms need to be purchased from other countries Home purchase, think about it, what is the result? "
Chen Qing responded and quickly organized the language to answer: "as a result, due to the lack of strong national defense and people's livelihood industry support, when the war broke out, the once invincible fleet was defeated by the pirate country that he always despised?"
"That's right."
Chen Qing draws inferences from one instance: "the boss means that the United States has gone on a road similar to that of Spain because it has separated from the gold standard and theoretically can issue unlimited US dollars?"
Simon's eyes fell on the map of the world in front of him again. He nodded when he heard the speech: "different tunes are the same."
Chen Qing was not sure: "boss, I don't think the United States will repeat the mistakes of Spain. After all, it's not hundreds of years ago."
"The only lesson history has taught mankind..."
"... is that human beings never learn a lesson," Chen Qing answered skillfully, but said again: "however, things are not absolute. Isn't the boss preparing for a rainy day?"
Simon shook his head: "the key is that the general trend of a society is difficult to reverse."
Sociology?
Chen Qing caught a word and felt a little strange. The two had been talking in Chinese. She thought that her boss should not use the difference between "country" and "society", so she asked, "what about the country?"
Simon smiled bitterly: "the country is possible, but these days, I have considered some possibilities and asked the affiliated think tank to make some models."
Sure enough.
Chen Qing made up her mind and saw her boss stop halfway. She asked curiously, "what model?"
"About the model of reversing the future by some means," Simon hesitated a little, Or do you say: "Like Spain in the past, the United States now has the advantage of the dollar and can directly print money to buy large quantities of materials, but it is conceivable that this will not last forever. Therefore, if we want a society that gradually depends on the implicit plunder of direct printing money to shift back to self-sufficiency in production, we must make mandatory changes to many things, such as actual national strength High social benefits that cannot be supported, such as the shrinking working hours. Ah, now many European countries are constantly reducing the working hours, eight hours, six hours, or even five hours and four hours. You Chinese must think this is a symbol of advanced civilization, right? "
Chen Qing could not deny it and nodded.
Simon shrugs: "The question is, does a person only work a little time every day and produce enough materials to live a good life? Of course, there must be differences in individual productivity, but at the whole social level, think about it, everyone only works six hours a day, five days a week at most, and there are all kinds of holidays during this period. Then, the materials produced by this society, Is it enough to satisfy everyone's superior life? "
Chen Qing didn't know how to answer for a while.
Simon glanced at the girl around him and said with a smile, "you might think that some countries in Western Europe are not like this?"
Chen Qing nodded again.
Simon said: "This is because Europe or the whole western world still has enough technological and cultural advantages, so they can sell their products made in six hours to the basic industrial products that can be produced in 60 hours or even 600 hours in other backward countries at a very high price, and then carry out an unequal exchange to get the materials they need. But then, what do you think Can this technological and cultural advantage last forever, and once it can't last? "
Chen Qing's face appears suddenly.
The result is certainly conceivable.
Simon didn't wait for her to answer, Shrugged again: "so ah, this is not an advanced civilization. It can even be said that it is very despicable. In my opinion, the key point why human civilization is a civilization and different from animals is that we can take the initiative to engage in production, rather than animals. We can fill our stomach through hunting, more bluntly and plundering."
Chen Qing straightened out a little and recovered the topic just now: "so, what did the boss say about the reversal of the United States?"
"As I just said, it's very simple. Cut high welfare, restructure social distribution, reform the labor system and so on."
Chen Qing didn't understand: "can't you do it?"
Simon's big hand allocated on the world map returned to China and said with a smile: "these things, according to your Chinese side, are actually another very appropriate word. Do you know what it is called?"
Chen Qing didn't react for a moment: "what?"
"Reform," Simon still smiled, but his smile was a little cold: "the people who started the reform in Chinese history, whether successful or failed, tell me, how many have come to a good end?"
A series of names flashed through Chen Qing's mind, from Shang Yang to Wang Anshi, from Zhang Juzheng to the Six Gentlemen of the 1898 movement. Well, it seems... I can't think of a few at a time. Shang Yang's reform was successful, and then he was cracked by a car. Wang Anshi failed and ended in depression, which also led to the long-term tear of the hall in the Northern Song Dynasty. Zhang Juzheng's political reform extended his life to the Ming Dynasty for a hundred years. After his death, he was blocked and his descendants were starved to death. As for the Six Gentlemen of the 1898 movement, this is more direct.
Next, Simon quickly continued: "I am not great enough to be willing to sacrifice my life for others. Moreover, the situation of Western society is still different from that of China. For example, if the United States wants to change, it must first change the existing political system to a considerable extent. Otherwise, the White House and parliament will contain each other, and the central and local governments will have tit for tat, which will not do anything at all.
Chen Qing thought of a word in her mind. After thinking about it, she said, "isn't the boss working quietly all the time? I think it's not impossible?"
"Yes, it's possible," Simon said: "Then, the problem goes back to the reform just now. Even if I try to realize this possibility, I actually want to hurt the rights and interests of all vested interests from top to bottom. Even if these rights and interests can't last for too long if they don't change, they will only feel hurt. Then, you know."
Chen Qing nodded gently.
Simon said: "so, instead, it's the current state. In fact, it's good for all levels. If you screw up things, even in the most extreme cases, the government will resign collectively, and then let them elect some people to power at will."
"But this can't solve the fundamental problem?"
"Of course," Simon said, "so it's hard to say what will happen once we encounter an economic crisis such as the great depression in the United States. Oh, when I think about these problems, I have some worries, even fears. After all, I'm a capitalist."
Chen Qing blinked and changed her mind a little. She immediately understood what her boss was worried about.
A spark.
Think again that you and your boss are grasshoppers on the same boat. Even if you have children, you can't help worrying about the situation: "boss, what should we do?"
Please report us if you find any errors so we can fix it asap!
When Yu Tingyu left, Simon leaned against the back of the mahogany chair, took a sip of tea, continued to enjoy the scenery outside the window, and casually asked Ren Jingxi opposite: "how's your side? I heard that a recent Kung Fu reality show is very good?"

Simon smiled: "yes, just make a fuss in the film. In reality, it's really bad."
Ren Jingxi's beautiful eyes glanced over: "you, ah, really look like Chinese."
Simon deliberately raised his chin slightly and said proudly, "I have a Chinese name."
Ren Jingxi was curious: "what?"
Mo Wuling also opened his eyes slightly.
Before Simon could speak, Chen Qing said, "Lianhua westero."

Hearing the speech, she tilted her head slightly to think. A moment later, some uncertain light flashed and hesitated: "boss, you, um, you're not optimistic about the future of the United States?"Simon didn't answer immediately, but talked about another thing that seemed irrelevant: "have you known some history of the age of great navigation?"Chen Qing shook her head in doubt: "not much."Simon came forward a little and knocked on the Spanish territory of Europe: "the first maritime overlord, Spain, at its peak, and then the sun never sets Empire, was just a group of pirates in the eyes of Spaniards. Guess how Spain declined?"Chen Qing shook her head directly this time: "I don't know."Simon smiled and said: "the decline of the country often has quite comprehensive reasons, which can not be simply because of one aspect. However, one of the most important things about the decline of Spain is that at the peak, Spain controlled more than 80% of the world's gold and silver mining rights."Chen Qing was a little confused and didn't quite understand the causal relationship for a while.Isn't it a good thing to master more than 80% of the world's gold and silver deposits?Simon continued: "Your first reaction is probably that this is not a good thing. The problem is that because Spain has mastered a huge amount of gold and silver mineral resources and almost has an inexhaustible currency commonly used in the world at that time, Spain continues to give up other low profit industries. What it needs is directly bought with money, so that in the end, even warships and arms need to be purchased from other countries Home purchase, think about it, what is the result? "Chen Qing responded and quickly organized the language to answer: "as a result, due to the lack of strong national defense and people's livelihood industry support, when the war broke out, the once invincible fleet was defeated by the pirate country that he always despised?""That's right."Chen Qing draws inferences from one instance: "the boss means that the United States has gone on a road similar to that of Spain because it has separated from the gold standard and theoretically can issue unlimited US dollars?"Simon's eyes fell on the map of the world in front of him again. He nodded when he heard the speech: "different tunes are the same."Chen Qing was not sure: "boss, I don't think the United States will repeat the mistakes of Spain. After all, it's not hundreds of years ago.""The only lesson history has taught mankind...""... is that human beings never learn a lesson," Chen Qing answered skillfully, but said again: "however, things are not absolute. Isn't the boss preparing for a rainy day?"Simon shook his head: "the key is that the general trend of a society is difficult to reverse."Sociology?Chen Qing caught a word and felt a little strange. The two had been talking in Chinese. She thought that her boss should not use the difference between "country" and "society", so she asked, "what about the country?"Simon smiled bitterly: "the country is possible, but these days, I have considered some possibilities and asked the affiliated think tank to make some models."Sure enough.Chen Qing made up her mind and saw her boss stop halfway. She asked curiously, "what model?""About the model of reversing the future by some means," Simon hesitated a little, Or do you say: "Like Spain in the past, the United States now has the advantage of the dollar and can directly print money to buy large quantities of materials, but it is conceivable that this will not last forever. Therefore, if we want a society that gradually depends on the implicit plunder of direct printing money to shift back to self-sufficiency in production, we must make mandatory changes to many things, such as actual national strength High social benefits that cannot be supported, such as the shrinking working hours. Ah, now many European countries are constantly reducing the working hours, eight hours, six hours, or even five hours and four hours. You Chinese must think this is a symbol of advanced civilization, right? "Chen Qing could not deny it and nodded.Simon shrugs: "The question is, does a person only work a little time every day and produce enough materials to live a good life? Of course, there must be differences in individual productivity, but at the whole social level, think about it, everyone only works six hours a day, five days a week at most, and there are all kinds of holidays during this period. Then, the materials produced by this society, Is it enough to satisfy everyone's superior life? "Chen Qing didn't know how to answer for a while.Simon glanced at the girl around him and said with a smile, "you might think that some countries in Western Europe are not like this?"Chen Qing nodded again.Simon said: "This is because Europe or the whole western world still has enough technological and cultural advantages, so they can sell their products made in six hours to the basic industrial products that can be produced in 60 hours or even 600 hours in other backward countries at a very high price, and then carry out an unequal exchange to get the materials they need. But then, what do you think Can this technological and cultural advantage last forever, and once it can't last? "Chen Qing's face appears suddenly.The result is certainly conceivable.Simon didn't wait for her to answer, Shrugged again: "so ah, this is not an advanced civilization. It can even be said that it is very despicable. In my opinion, the key point why human civilization is a civilization and different from animals is that we can take the initiative to engage in production, rather than animals. We can fill our stomach through hunting, more bluntly and plundering."Chen Qing straightened out a little and recovered the topic just now: "so, what did the boss say about the reversal of the United States?""As I just said, it's very simple. Cut high welfare, restructure social distribution, reform the labor system and so on."Chen Qing didn't understand: "can't you do it?"Simon's big hand allocated on the world map returned to China and said with a smile: "these things, according to your Chinese side, are actually another very appropriate word. Do you know what it is called?"Chen Qing didn't react for a moment: "what?""Reform," Simon still smiled, but his smile was a little cold: "the people who started the reform in Chinese history, whether successful or failed, tell me, how many have come to a good end?"A series of names flashed through Chen Qing's mind, from Shang Yang to Wang Anshi, from Zhang Juzheng to the Six Gentlemen of the 1898 movement. Well, it seems... I can't think of a few at a time. Shang Yang's reform was successful, and then he was cracked by a car. Wang Anshi failed and ended in depression, which also led to the long-term tear of the hall in the Northern Song Dynasty. Zhang Juzheng's political reform extended his life to the Ming Dynasty for a hundred years. After his death, he was blocked and his descendants were starved to death. As for the Six Gentlemen of the 1898 movement, this is more direct.Next, Simon quickly continued: "I am not great enough to be willing to sacrifice my life for others. Moreover, the situation of Western society is still different from that of China. For example, if the United States wants to change, it must first change the existing political system to a considerable extent. Otherwise, the White House and parliament will contain each other, and the central and local governments will have tit for tat, which will not do anything at all.Chen Qing thought of a word in her mind. After thinking about it, she said, "isn't the boss working quietly all the time? I think it's not impossible?""Yes, it's possible," Simon said: "Then, the problem goes back to the reform just now. Even if I try to realize this possibility, I actually want to hurt the rights and interests of all vested interests from top to bottom. Even if these rights and interests can't last for too long if they don't change, they will only feel hurt. Then, you know."Chen Qing nodded gently.Simon said: "so, instead, it's the current state. In fact, it's good for all levels. If you screw up things, even in the most extreme cases, the government will resign collectively, and then let them elect some people to power at will.""But this can't solve the fundamental problem?""Of course," Simon said, "so it's hard to say what will happen once we encounter an economic crisis such as the great depression in the United States. Oh, when I think about these problems, I have some worries, even fears. After all, I'm a capitalist."Chen Qing blinked and changed her mind a little. She immediately understood what her boss was worried about.A spark.Think again that you and your boss are grasshoppers on the same boat. Even if you have children, you can't help worrying about the situation: "boss, what should we do?"
