Katherine's "the end of the road crazy flower", obviously a bit more rough flavor.
Of course, rough is not rough, it just gives people a sharper and colder feeling.
It's hard for the audience to see that this is the work of a female director because of the desert sand, the end of the world, and the more crisp and unrestrained flying with the progress of the plot.
However, the director is still a woman.
Therefore, the new version of the last flower highlights feminism more clearly.
Fortunately, under Simon's constant influence, Katherine gives up the sermons she likes to add deliberately in her original works, and focuses more on the subtle expression of some ideas through the story.
In the initial discussion, Catherine once hoped that the two heroines would finally escape to Mexico.
However, in the final version, Selma and Louise still drive down the cliff, so they sacrifice a complete story.
At the end of the audition, and after discussing the publicity of the last two months, Simon takes Catherine back to domay point manor. It's more than six o'clock.
Katherine was informed in advance that she would be here today, and Janet had her dinner ready.
When she got home, she said hello to Katherine affectionately, and Janet said another thing.
Today, the lawsuit against Matthew Broderick and others is completely over.
During this period of time, the investigation and litigation of the original attack has always been the focus of media attention, but Simon himself did not spend too much time on this small matter.
After months of investigation, the Santa Monica Police Department officially informed the media of the investigation results last week.
In fact, the truth of the matter has long been obvious.
The Los Angeles District Court today officially announced its judgment based on the results of the investigation and the contents of the prosecution.
Matthew Broderick and mark Stein were dismissed completely.
In the lawsuit against Simon, six people were sentenced to damages ranging from $5 million to $1 million for libel and 600 hours of community service, and no more public discussion on Simon related matters.
In addition, the original attack was ignored by the court because the two sides signed a settlement agreement privately and Simon did not file a lawsuit for intentional injury.
Janet didn't want to give up so much if she wasn't pregnant.
Now, with a little life in her stomach, women have no desire to pursue her.
Moreover, the amount of compensation in the level of one million US dollars will basically empty several people's families. Three of the six people can't afford it at all, and they can only bear such a civil compensation debt for a long time. In the future, unless we pay off the compensation, we will not be able to turn over for the rest of our lives.
When the dinner started, the little thing that Simon was talking about now had been thoroughly exposed.
After dinner together, she was dragged by Janet to talk until more than nine o'clock. Catherine resolutely refused Janet's proposal to invite her to stay, got up and left.
Once only three people together absurd, women never let Simon succeed again.
Janet has been pregnant for three months. In fact, she can do something.
However, in order to be on the safe side, the woman has no intention of letting Simon touch herself, and Simon has no idea of teasing the big bellied woman. It's just a time to make out with your female assistant when you go to Los Angeles, or a little hunting like last Saturday.
Although he won't treat himself badly in the matter of men and women, Simon is also very abstemious.
I spent most of the weekend with Janet talking about setting up a private medical center in Malibu.
It's mainly because of pregnancy.
During this period, the woman has bought a plot in the northern hills of domay point manor, and even her name has been registered, westero medical center.
However, it's not a matter of two days to build a top-level private medical center, even when the baby is born, so it's mainly for the future.
Basically, it's an investment that doesn't pay off, much like the Johnston family funded medical center in Melbourne.
After the discussion, Simon decided that the medical center is mainly used to serve the management of the whole westero system, and is supported by the Simon & Janet westero foundation. In the future, some medical institutions dedicated to research will be set up.
Many charitable projects sponsored by the rich in the west always cover "medical care", and to a large extent, they serve themselves.
The Rockefellers finished their day work and dinner was invited by Morgan Stanley CEO Richard Fisher.
At seven o'clock, Simon arrived at a French restaurant in midtown Manhattan. Richard Fisher had arrived early.
Over dinner, the two discussed the details of AOL's launch.
Towards the end, Richard Fisher brings up another topic.
"Simon, according to recent market feedback, 22.5 million AOL shares are totally unable to meet the market demand. Since you are not willing to increase the distribution share, how about adding a green shoe scheme? "Simon looked at Richard Fisher with a smile: "green shoes?"
"Yes, the green shoe scheme is like this..."
Simon raised the cutlery in his hand to stop Richard Fisher's explanation and said, "Charlie, I know what the green shoe program is. However, for AOL, this is no different from increasing the proportion of shares issued, and I will not agree with it. "
Generally speaking, the green shoe scheme in the process of IPO is a kind of protection mechanism to deal with the uncertainty in the process of IPO.
In short, if the market is very optimistic after the IPO and the stock price rises, the IPO company will issue an additional amount of no more than 15% of the new shares to investors, which can raise more funds. If the market goes down, in order to maintain the stock price and avoid breaking the market, IPO companies will use the funds raised previously to buy back a certain share of the stock from the market.
Richard Fisher proposed to launch the green shoes program at this time, obviously hoping Simon could issue more shares of AOL.
In fact, even the 15% issue ratio this time, Simon is a little too much.
Simon would prefer to issue only 10% if he could.
However, in order to avoid that too few stocks in circulation affect the activity of AOL's stock trading and further affect AOL's share price, Simon set the IPO ratio at 15% after repeated discussions.
Moreover, there are other reasons for doing so.
AOL monopolizes the ISP market of the most prosperous states on the East and west coasts of the United States, which is easy to hate.
Issuing a little more shares to all investors in the United States can also reduce some unnecessary troubles in antitrust and other aspects that may be encountered in the future.
In this respect, Microsoft and Facebook in Simon's memory are the best examples.
Because of the monopoly, Microsoft in the original time and space in the whole nineties were the whole desire to die, once almost split.
In Simon's view, the main reason is that the ownership of Microsoft is too concentrated. Bill Gates and Paul Allen still hold more than half of the total shares of Microsoft until 2000. With such huge wealth in their hands and such a strong monopoly advantage, other capital forces in the United States will not be reconciled.
Later, when Damen continued to reduce her holding of Microsoft stock, Microsoft gradually became a public holding company jointly held by many types of investment funds in the United States, and Microsoft never encountered too much antitrust trouble in North America.
Later, Facebook became a public holding company early. In the process of the data leakage scandal that shocked the world, the media played up the rhythm of Facebook's closing down every minute. Xiaozha resigned and fined several trillion yuan.
The final result.
It's just a playful congressional hearing.
When everyone thought that they would see a large number of congressmen bombarding Zuckerberg fiercely, for four hours, all they heard was "my granddaughter is a loyal user of Facebook, I want you to sign it" and "please explain what big data is" and so on.
In the final analysis, because a large number of U.S. pension funds, insurance funds, investment banks and other institutions hold Facebook shares, the U.S. government can't really bring down Facebook as long as it doesn't have a brain to draw wind, even if the punishment is a little heavier.
In order to avoid the situation of Microsoft in the 1990s, Simon will continue to list the high-quality companies of westero system, and at the same time, he will continue to reduce his shareholding ratio in these companies. The cash out can also be used for other investments.
In the end, Simon hopes to achieve a kind of integration of the whole westero system into the American economic system.
At that time, if the suppression of the Westeros system is the suppression of the American economy, Simon does not believe that he will encounter the same trouble as his classmates.
But this is not the present.
For AOL, a new technology company that is expected to impact a giant with a market value of 100 billion, it is unwise to sell a large number of shares when it has a valuation of only 3 billion US dollars.
As a result, Simon refused Richard Fisher's proposal without hesitation.
There was a desire to make friends with each other, and although Richard Fisher's goal was not achieved, the dinner was still pleasant.
After dinner, it was more than eight o'clock in the evening on the east coast of the United States.
Simon left the restaurant and drove directly to Kennedy International Airport.
There is a seven hour time difference between New York and London, and the flight from the east coast of the United States to Britain is about eight hours.
Simon is now taking off, sleeping on the plane and arriving in London at noon local time on Tuesday.
Alice Ferguson, the housekeeper who boarded the Boeing 767 private plane and was going to Europe with Simon, met him with a little coldness on her face, reminding him that Ms. Jenna had been waiting for more than half an hour.
Since last Saturday, the housekeeper in front of her ridiculous boss looks like I want to keep a distance from you.Simon stopped, reached for the housekeeper's delicate face, patiently pinched a satisfactory upward arc on the corner of her mouth, then nodded to himself, and warned: "if you dare to face me with this smelly face again, your salary will be deducted."
When Simon let go of her face, the housekeeper blinked quickly.
Then.
Obviously I didn't think of anything and then.
Do you want to resign?
Do you want to slap back?
Are you going to sue him for harassment?
Obviously.
It doesn't work.
Then, he can only bend the corner of his mouth and glare at him to show that he is not happy.
Simon ignored the housekeeper and said, "let the crew get ready to take off. In addition, send me a pot of coffee and the box office report of last weekend."
Alice blinked again.
Direct takeoff?
Are you going to take that woman to Europe?
Seeing her boss walking towards the cabin, the housekeeper followed her step by step, then stopped and turned to do her own business.
Simon came to the living room in the middle of the plane. Chris Jenna, sitting on the sofa, immediately stood up and said with a smile and a little flattery, "Simon, you Good
Today, Chris Jenna is wearing a light blue blouse and close fitting white casual pants, showing her mature and plump figure. In the 1980s, many Western women did not tend to tan themselves, and their skin was very white.
Without answering the woman's greeting, Simon looked at her and went on to the front cabin, saying, "follow me."
Chris Jenna didn't understand Simon's idea, so she got up a little uneasy and carried her bag to the front cabin of the Boeing 767.
Entering the living room on the upper deck of the front cabin, Simon sat down on the sofa at will, looked at the woman coming in and said, "I hear you know me very well?"
Without a man's sign, Chris Jenna didn't dare to take the initiative to sit down. Hearing Simon's question, her guilty expression was more flattering. She subconsciously took a step forward and noticed the man's blocking eyes. She quickly stopped and said, "I, Simon, I'm sorry."
With that, thinking of her situation, Chris Jenna relaxed again.
If the little man is dissatisfied because she got the chance of "New York wife" under his guise, he doesn't need to see her at all.
Now, it seems clear.
So he pointed to the position next to Simon, with a slightly provocative smile on his face, and said, "Simon, can I sit down?"
Simon shook his head: "stand."
Women have to continue to stand and watch men leisurely pick up a magazine to read up, do not know what will happen next.
However, think about what happened at the beginning of the year, anyway, she still wants to get the chance of "New York wife".
A few months ago, her ex husband suddenly stopped her credit card and got a clean divorce.
Because of the prenuptial agreement, she basically didn't get anything. After being a housewife for so many years, she found that she could do nothing but continue to be a housewife.
I can only marry another man soon.
But she didn't want to go through it again.
Therefore, when recruiting the heroine in "New York wife", she knew that she was not likely to be selected, so she would take the risk to use the little man's name in front of her. She used to pay close attention to "Beverly's wife" series. The housewives who took part in this reality show not only gained fame, but also developed a good career.
Worst of all, it's paid to participate in this series of reality shows.
It is said that this autumn's latest season of "Beverly's wife", the single season pay of several leading characters has risen to 250000 US dollars, which is already a very considerable income.
Even for the latest New York wife, it's $100000 a season.
What's more, she has enough confidence to do other things with the fame of the reality show, like the housewives of Beverly's wife.
The housekeeper brought in the coffee and the box office report of the past weekend. When she left, she looked at the woman standing at the door and asked, "boss, will you take off immediately?"
Simon looked up at Chris Jenna and said, "would you like to go to Europe with me?"
Chris Jenna opened her mouth.
If it's just tonight, she's got a reason.
But she didn't think about going to Europe.
It's just that.
If you don't go, will you lose the chance to participate in the show?
Simon noticed the woman's hesitation and said, "you don't need to get off the plane. When you get to London, you'll be back immediately."
Chris Jenna counted the time, hesitated, and nodded after all.Alice looked at the woman nodding, saying nothing more and turning away from the front cabin.
Please report us if you find any errors so we can fix it asap!

In short, if the market is very optimistic after the IPO and the stock price rises, the IPO company will issue an additional amount of no more than 15% of the new shares to investors, which can raise more funds. If the market goes down, in order to maintain the stock price and avoid breaking the market, IPO companies will use the funds raised previously to buy back a certain share of the stock from the market. Richard Fisher proposed to launch the green shoes program at this time, obviously hoping Simon could issue more shares of AOL. In fact, even the 15% issue ratio this time, Simon is a little too much. Simon would prefer to issue only 10% if he could. However, in order to avoid that too few stocks in circulation affect the activity of AOL's stock trading and further affect AOL's share price, Simon set the IPO ratio at 15% after repeated discussions. Moreover, there are other reasons for doing so. AOL monopolizes the ISP market of the most prosperous states on the East and west coasts of the United States, which is easy to hate. Issuing a little more shares to all investors in the United States can also reduce some unnecessary troubles in antitrust and other aspects that may be encountered in the future. In this respect, Microsoft and Facebook in Simon's memory are the best examples. Because of the monopoly, Microsoft in the original time and space in the whole nineties were the whole desire to die, once almost split. In Simon's view, the main reason is that the ownership of Microsoft is too concentrated. Bill Gates and Paul Allen still hold more than half of the total shares of Microsoft until 2000. With such huge wealth in their hands and such a strong monopoly advantage, other capital forces in the United States will not be reconciled. Later, when Damen continued to reduce her holding of Microsoft stock, Microsoft gradually became a public holding company jointly held by many types of investment funds in the United States, and Microsoft never encountered too much antitrust trouble in North America. Later, Facebook became a public holding company early. In the process of the data leakage scandal that shocked the world, the media played up the rhythm of Facebook's closing down every minute. Xiaozha resigned and fined several trillion yuan. The final result. It's just a playful congressional hearing. When everyone thought that they would see a large number of congressmen bombarding Zuckerberg fiercely, for four hours, all they heard was "my granddaughter is a loyal user of Facebook, I want you to sign it" and "please explain what big data is" and so on. In the final analysis, because a large number of U.S. pension funds, insurance funds, investment banks and other institutions hold Facebook shares, the U.S. government can't really bring down Facebook as long as it doesn't have a brain to draw wind, even if the punishment is a little heavier. In order to avoid the situation of Microsoft in the 1990s, Simon will continue to list the high-quality companies of westero system, and at the same time, he will continue to reduce his shareholding ratio in these companies. The cash out can also be used for other investments. In the end, Simon hopes to achieve a kind of integration of the whole westero system into the American economic system. At that time, if the suppression of the Westeros system is the suppression of the American economy, Simon does not believe that he will encounter the same trouble as his classmates. But this is not the present. For AOL, a new technology company that is expected to impact a giant with a market value of 100 billion, it is unwise to sell a large number of shares when it has a valuation of only 3 billion US dollars. As a result, Simon refused Richard Fisher's proposal without hesitation. There was a desire to make friends with each other, and although Richard Fisher's goal was not achieved, the dinner was still pleasant. After dinner, it was more than eight o'clock in the evening on the east coast of the United States. Simon left the restaurant and drove directly to Kennedy International Airport. There is a seven hour time difference between New York and London, and the flight from the east coast of the United States to Britain is about eight hours. Simon is now taking off, sleeping on the plane and arriving in London at noon local time on Tuesday. Alice Ferguson, the housekeeper who boarded the Boeing 767 private plane and was going to Europe with Simon, met him with a little coldness on her face, reminding him that Ms. Jenna had been waiting for more than half an hour. Since last Saturday, the housekeeper in front of her ridiculous boss looks like I want to keep a distance from you.Simon stopped, reached for the housekeeper's delicate face, patiently pinched a satisfactory upward arc on the corner of her mouth, then nodded to himself, and warned: "if you dare to face me with this smelly face again, your salary will be deducted." When Simon let go of her face, the housekeeper blinked quickly. Then. Obviously I didn't think of anything and then. Do you want to resign? Do you want to slap back? Are you going to sue him for harassment? Obviously. It doesn't work. Then, he can only bend the corner of his mouth and glare at him to show that he is not happy. Simon ignored the housekeeper and said, "let the crew get ready to take off. In addition, send me a pot of coffee and the box office report of last weekend." Alice blinked again. Direct takeoff? Are you going to take that woman to Europe? Seeing her boss walking towards the cabin, the housekeeper followed her step by step, then stopped and turned to do her own business. Simon came to the living room in the middle of the plane. Chris Jenna, sitting on the sofa, immediately stood up and said with a smile and a little flattery, "Simon, you Good Today, Chris Jenna is wearing a light blue blouse and close fitting white casual pants, showing her mature and plump figure. In the 1980s, many Western women did not tend to tan themselves, and their skin was very white. Without answering the woman's greeting, Simon looked at her and went on to the front cabin, saying, "follow me." Chris Jenna didn't understand Simon's idea, so she got up a little uneasy and carried her bag to the front cabin of the Boeing 767. Entering the living room on the upper deck of the front cabin, Simon sat down on the sofa at will, looked at the woman coming in and said, "I hear you know me very well?" Without a man's sign, Chris Jenna didn't dare to take the initiative to sit down. Hearing Simon's question, her guilty expression was more flattering. She subconsciously took a step forward and noticed the man's blocking eyes. She quickly stopped and said, "I, Simon, I'm sorry." With that, thinking of her situation, Chris Jenna relaxed again. If the little man is dissatisfied because she got the chance of "New York wife" under his guise, he doesn't need to see her at all. Now, it seems clear. So he pointed to the position next to Simon, with a slightly provocative smile on his face, and said, "Simon, can I sit down?" Simon shook his head: "stand." Women have to continue to stand and watch men leisurely pick up a magazine to read up, do not know what will happen next. However, think about what happened at the beginning of the year, anyway, she still wants to get the chance of "New York wife". A few months ago, her ex husband suddenly stopped her credit card and got a clean divorce. Because of the prenuptial agreement, she basically didn't get anything. After being a housewife for so many years, she found that she could do nothing but continue to be a housewife. I can only marry another man soon. But she didn't want to go through it again. Therefore, when recruiting the heroine in "New York wife", she knew that she was not likely to be selected, so she would take the risk to use the little man's name in front of her. She used to pay close attention to "Beverly's wife" series. The housewives who took part in this reality show not only gained fame, but also developed a good career. Worst of all, it's paid to participate in this series of reality shows. It is said that this autumn's latest season of "Beverly's wife", the single season pay of several leading characters has risen to 250000 US dollars, which is already a very considerable income. Even for the latest New York wife, it's $100000 a season. What's more, she has enough confidence to do other things with the fame of the reality show, like the housewives of Beverly's wife. The housekeeper brought in the coffee and the box office report of the past weekend. When she left, she looked at the woman standing at the door and asked, "boss, will you take off immediately?" Simon looked up at Chris Jenna and said, "would you like to go to Europe with me?" Chris Jenna opened her mouth. If it's just tonight, she's got a reason. But she didn't think about going to Europe. It's just that. If you don't go, will you lose the chance to participate in the show? Simon noticed the woman's hesitation and said, "you don't need to get off the plane. When you get to London, you'll be back immediately." Chris Jenna counted the time, hesitated, and nodded after all.Alice looked at the woman nodding, saying nothing more and turning away from the front cabin.
