Now, things are clearly turning around.

Speaking of which, even without today, Jill knew she had locked in a good future after meeting Janet Westeros in June.There will always be rumors that Janet Westeros was left out by Simon Westeros in the outside world, but Jill knows that Janet Westeros in Cape Dume Manor, or the two Jennys, have the resources And the power far exceeds that of the hostess of many rich merchants and wealthy families.

However, compared to Janet Westeros' future arrangements for her, Jill still hopes to get the direct favor of the male master of the family.

Simon simply closed the "Business Weekly" in his hand, and motioned to the girl: "Come here."

Jill obediently moved to the man's feet.

Simon lifted the girl's chin with his hand and looked at it. The appearance of a standard Germanic girl with a score of 80 or above, blond hair, blue eyes, a straight nose and a delicate mouth, and the tender skin that was obviously carefully maintained from the fingertips: "Pektor, this Is it a German surname?"

Jill nodded slightly: "Yes, boss, I was born in Germany and immigrated to the United States with my parents when I was 3 years old."

Simon withdrew his hand and said with a smile: "One more point, I also like German girls. Except for the lack of sense of humor, Germans are indeed one of the best nations in the world."

Jill thoughtfully handed the bottle of mineral water that Simon hadn't touched to his boss, looking up at the man's eyes flickering, but didn't speak.

In fact, Jill was very curious about this man's ethnicity.

Or the whole world is very curious.

Westerners always emphasize equality and political correctness, but in fact, most people are very concerned about ethnicity, not only between different races, but also between whites and whites.For example, the Anglo-Saxons are obviously the most superior, and the Jews are the most controversial. As for the Slavs, they belong to the lowest level. Due to historical reasons, they have long been disgusted and even hostile.

Besides, Simon Westeros, because of his fortune in Hollywood, coupled with the miracle of this young man's rapid accumulation of huge wealth, there were rumors that he was Jewish, and the Jewish community obviously hoped that this was true.

However, according to the appearance characteristics, Westeros seems to be more inclined to the mainstream Anglo-Saxons, which is of course the expectation of the 'Wasp' family.

In addition, with some rumors that Westeros is very interested in Eastern Europe, especially after using the former Soviet army to make a fuss in Africa two years ago, there are some gossips about Westeros having Slavic ancestry.

Because of this man's orphan background, even his real surname is unknown, and Westeros probably doesn't know the truth.Or, the man already knows.After all, as power and wealth become more and more prosperous, if Westeros wants to pursue something, it may not be difficult to find out some truths.

Thinking this way, after Simon took a few sips of water and seemed to be in a good mood, Jill said again: "Boss, can I choose the team to follow the three of them?"

"Okay."

"So, boss, and then, what can I do?"

"Get to know China first, and find opportunities by yourself. Unlike Europe and the United States, the other side of the ocean is a blue ocean of capital in my opinion. If you can't find opportunities in such an environment, you can only rest assured of your current position."

"If I find it, will the boss support it?"

"Find it first and then talk."

Jill opened her mouth again, but stopped talking.

Simon smiled and said, "As for funds or resources, they will be given to you when they should be given to you."

After chatting for a while, the housekeeper Angourie Davis arrived and naturally took over Jill Pector's work. The three girls were swam around the villa by Simon who wanted to let the cats go, and were caught again. Shouting down the stairs, you will see shelves full of luxury women's clothing, bags and shoes in the hall, and even a team of professional stylists.

After more than two hours of tidying up, the three girls who had just signed a contract with Elite and could only live in the dormitory and wear the cheapest clothes completely transformed from Cinderella to princess.

As in a dream.

During the period, the housekeeper also collected a batch of party information to be held in the Hampton area tonight. Simon chose a charity cocktail party held by Condé Nast Group boss Shiyi Newhouse at his mansion in East Hampton.After a little contact, the other side learned that Simon intends to attend, and naturally expressed his great welcome.

Eight o'clock in the evening.

The summer night finally enveloped the four fields, and Simon took three well-dressed girls to take a stretched Rolls-Royce to the mansion on the east side of East Hampton of Shiyi Newhouse. The head of the Newhouse family, who is as famous as the Te family, came forward to greet him in person.

"You are welcome, Simon, you will be the biggest surprise at the party tonight."

"I hope I'm not being too abrupt."

"of course not."

Shi Yi Newhouse greeted Simon, and did not forget to shake hands with the three gorgeous oriental girls beside him one by one, teasing and envious.

Really envious.

No matter what aspect this young man is, he is enough to make old rich men like them jealous.As far as women are concerned, at Newhouse's level, of course there will be no shortage of women, but Shi Yi Newhouse, who is short and ugly, can't make a large number of beauties of all colors voluntarily fall into his arms.

After a simple exchange of greetings, Shi Yi Newhouse led Simon and the others into the reception scene. As soon as someone entered the hall of the villa, many eyes immediately gathered around him, and then they couldn't move away.

Seeing this situation, Shi Yi Newhouse felt a little uncomfortable in his heart, but he couldn't express it.

For this young man who almost destroyed the Hearst family, the Newhouse family did not dare to neglect at all, even though the rise of the Internet dominated by the Westeros system in recent years has continuously squeezed the living space of traditional paper media, but when the gap becomes wider When growing up, no one has any special thoughts.

As for the pride of the century-old Qian family?

forget it.

Simon didn't have any pretensions either, and quickly blended into the crowd.

The parties of the Newhouse family, whether in the fields of fashion, media or finance, all the guests present, Simon has basically known each other over the years.For example, Anna Coleman, the female president of Fashion TV, Anna Wintour, the editor-in-chief of "Vogue" magazine, and Cindy Crawford, all met at Jerry Hall's house last night.

In fact, this kind of circle is already very small.

Anna Coleman and the others were not at all surprised that Simon brought three oriental girls to the reception today as he was staying at Hall's house. No one can tell how many lovers there are in Westeros. The number is clear.Moreover, if it is another man, especially a married man, it is inevitable that there will be ups and downs. For Simon Westeros, after getting used to it, many people will take it for granted.

"Jane and the three of them have just signed under Elite. Anna, if "Vogue" has a suitable opportunity, let them try."

"No problem, Simon," Anna Wintour agreed with a smile, and looked at the three girls seriously: "I have to say, their bodies and temperaments are all very good, and they will definitely shine in the future, by the way , Simon, are you going to have them on the Victoria's Secret runway for the last time?"

"It depends on the specific situation. They are all just entering the industry, and their steps are not very good. You know, my requirements are very strict."

Anna Wintour laughed: "I'm actually a very strict person."

"of course."

Simon was chatting with Anna Wintour and others, and the three daughters of Jian Xin obediently accompanied them with smiles on their faces.The English skills of the three girls are only sufficient for simple communication, and it is difficult for the people around them to understand if they speak a little faster.However, although they can only be quails by the man's side, the three girls are quite excited to be able to participate in such a party.

It's just an Anna Wintour, the eyes of the three women who already understood what Vogue means in the fashion circle, let alone the surroundings, these are all big names in New York City in their minds.

Of course, no matter how old he is, he is no bigger than the man beside him.

So be sure to hold on tight.

Simon was chatting with Wintour when a slightly old voice came from beside him: "Simon, I really didn't expect to see you here tonight."

Turning his head to look over, it was George Soros, followed by another middle-aged man.

After shaking hands with the other party, Simon also said: "I didn't expect to see you here, George, I didn't expect you to be interested in fashion?"

"Oh, of course not, I've been talking about things here this afternoon, and it just so happened that there was a party here in the evening, so we came together," George Soros said, then looked at the three vases beside Simon, and said, "Can you It's really enviable," said this, and then introduced the gray-haired middle-aged man wearing black-rimmed glasses: "By the way, Simon, this is David Rubinstein. He and several other people run a private equity firm. An equity fund called Carlyle, maybe you've heard of it."

The middle-aged man took a step forward and reached out to Simon: "Mr. Westeros, nice to meet you."

"Hi David, just call me Simon."

David Rubinstein showed just the right expression of honor, and then took out his business card and handed it over: "So, Simon, here is my business card."

Simon took it and said with a smile, "Sorry, I don't seem to have a business card."

This is the truth.

I have had it before, but I don’t know when it started, and it’s gone, mainly because I don’t want to mess around.

There was nothing wrong with David Rubinstein's expression: "It's okay."

Simon nodded, then looked at the business card in his hand.

The Carlyle Group, combined with the memory of the two worlds, of course Simon knows.

Unlike New York, where various funds gather together, the Carlyle Group is one of the few investment companies that made its fortune in Washington. People with keen intuition can probably understand the background of this company just by virtue of this.

Standard combination of government and business capital.

The Carlyle Group, which recruited a large number of former high-ranking Washington officials as executives or consultants, has been engaged in corporate capital operations in the defense field since its establishment in the 80s. Come to defense orders and profit from it.

The U.S. military industry group is not just the giants like Lockheed Martin and Boeing that ordinary people think of. Many important military equipment, such as fighter jets, aircraft carriers, etc., often require hundreds of suppliers, and the operating space is very large.Just like some news that was exposed later, a warship nut, the same material, the same standard, the market price is less than 5 US dollars, but the price purchased by the Ministry of Defense from suppliers can be as high as 700 US dollars, a price difference of more than 100 times.

As for the reason?

Do not ask.

Questions are military secrets.

After all, the defense budget is too abundant, and buying hairy crabs is too much to spend all the time, so it can only be so bad.

However, compared to a bunch of parasites in the US defense field, the Carlyle Group is a relatively ideal one. Later, it gradually developed and became a private equity giant in the industry comparable to Blackstone, KKR and other companies.Then, after experiencing the financial crisis in 08, it could not escape the fate of decline after prosperity.

What Simon remembers deeply is the incident of Carlyle's acquisition of XCMG.

Ok.

Not much to say about this.

At this time, he did not expect that the Carlyle Group had a relationship with Soros. Simon was a little surprised by this, but it was not unexpected.

Soros' close ties to Washington are also well known.

David Rubinstein obviously hoped to have a few more words with Simon, but Soros quickly took the initiative to speak: "Simon, I went to Russia a while ago, and I heard that you were in Ukraine at the time."

"Yeah, vacation."

Soros showed a helpless expression and glanced at the three vases beside Simon: "Simon, you live in heaven almost every day, do you still use a special vacation?"

"Of course, I will go to Australia for vacation in a while."

Simon actually doesn’t want to answer Soros’s topic about Russia. If he talks too much, if this financial giant jumps out of Russia’s financial quagmire starting next year, it will be bad. He is still waiting to go. Help Soros clean up the 'mess', such as the stake in a state-owned telecommunications company that is likely to be taken by the Russian oligarch Potanin supported by Soros.

"Actually, George, I don't have any special plans for many things now. Now I just spread seeds everywhere, and then wait to see which ones can germinate. If they grow well, I will water them a little. When they bear fruit, everyone will be happy."

When Soros heard this, his expression was cautious and complicated: "Simon, I was a little surprised to hear you say that. Last time you sowed seeds everywhere, and everyone has seen it now, Eaglet, Cisco, America Online... "

Simon was very talkative: "George, many of my actions are on the bright side. If you think it is very promising, Quantum Fund can follow up."

After Simon's voice fell, David Rubinstein, who was standing beside Soros, couldn't help shaking his hand holding the cocktail glass.

The gate of the new world.

Soros obviously didn't have David Rubinstein's thoughts at all, his solemn expression melted away, and then turned into a wry smile: "That's the problem, Simon, I can't keep up."

After becoming famous for several consecutive financial sniper attacks, Quantum Fund now controls tens of billions of dollars in funds. However, in the face of the Westeros system, which has controlled assets of more than 2 trillion U.S. dollars, Quantum Fund is still not enough.Simon said that he was sowing seeds everywhere. Even if all the targets were carefully selected by this young man, the Quantum Fund could not keep up.

Even if they are sprinkled with a few of them, who knows how to maintain the seeds to bloom and bear fruit after they germinate?

Now a series of new technology companies such as Eaglet seem to be going smoothly and unstoppably along the way, but if someone could see this prospect at the beginning, and even know what to do after seeing it, the current market value of these companies is simply amazing. How can it be the turn of this new money junior who has just risen for a few years to occupy the eye-popping super giant company.

All in all, Soros was really terrified when he heard Simon say that he was sowing seeds again.

Soros actually had some thoughts.

The sowing of seeds that Simon said this time is actually similar to the small arrangement for Jill Pector in the Southampton villa in the evening.Or, the industrial layout of Rivne Oblast, Ukraine.Or even a little bigger, like some short guy in Russia with thinning hair, and so on.

These are no longer the forward-looking plans for the new technology industry for several years after the 87 stock market disaster.

After climbing to the top, Simon, who is indeed a little confused about the future, has been sowing seeds in a mess for the past two years, so he has no clear expectations for future earnings.

However, many years later, when the "seeds" that Simon had sown all over the world grew up one after another, covering almost the entire world, not only Soros confirmed that there was nothing wrong with being terrified at this moment, but the whole world at that time was inevitably terrified.

Chapter 1004

This is the most comfortable sleep I have had since arriving in the United States. The luxurious bedroom, the soft big bed, and the comfortable temperature brought by the air conditioner.In fact, when the men wake up, they also wake up, but they just hear the other party say that they can continue to sleep, so they continue obediently.

Opening his eyes again, although he didn't know the time, he could feel the blazing summer sun through the curtains, obviously it was getting late.

Opening her eyes and thinking wildly for a moment, Tao Yuelei turned over carefully, she could feel the discomfort between her legs during the movement, and seeing Jian Xin and Zhu Momo, who were surrounded by the beautiful scenery with the thin blanket next to her, she felt even more emotional It's a bit complicated.

last night.

Three people... four people... directly shattered Tao Yuelei's outlook on life.

Since childhood, because of her outstanding height and appearance, Tao Yuelei has always been a proud girl in her bones. She never had a relationship until she graduated from university, because she always looked down upon her, and also because...she was for sale.Unexpectedly, in just one night, that man gave her an experience that she had never experienced in the largest literature or film and television works she had ever seen before.

Of course the heart is not very willing.

It's just that every time they think of that man's terrifying identity, they can't even look up at him, and... the other's handsome appearance and knowledgeable conversation, plus some irresistible strength, they will sink into it unconsciously.The occasional moment of clarity also comforts herself, both Jian Xin and Zhu Momo are like this, so she has nothing to worry about.

This is Simon Westeros!

I don't know how long I stayed in the same position in a daze. Zhu Momo, who was close to Tao Yuelei, finally woke up. Probably feeling the coolness in the air, she subconsciously burrowed into Jian Xin's embrace, so Jian Xin also woke up.

After a brief moment of silence, Jian Xin spoke first: "Momo, I didn't expect your skin to be so good and white."

"Naturally beautiful, there's nothing you can do about it. You're not as good, but it doesn't matter, you can keep it."

Jian Xin slapped Zhu Momo somewhere in dissatisfaction, and pushed her away from her arms pretending to be angry: "It's just that I don't know how to behave."

Although the two women were bickering, after experiencing last night, their tone of voice when they spoke to each other was obviously much closer than before.

"I only said that when I treated you as a sister, and I'm being polite to outsiders." Zhu Momo was pushed away by Jian Xin, turned over with a smile, and her slender and graceful body was lying on the big bed, hugging the pillow with both hands Twirling and whimpering a few times comfortably, seeing Tao Yuelei looking at them, she greeted them with a smile: "Morning, big sister."
