Although the two houses of Congress also have the power to initiate various judicial investigations, and the Republican Party controlled the entire Congress through the mid-term elections two years ago, compared to Clinton’s absolute authority in the White House, what Congress wants to do, even if it initiates One side holds the majority, but whether it is pushing a bill or launching an investigation, it will take a long time to wrestle.

At least, it is definitely too late to concoct an investigation into the Westeros system 10 days in advance.

This is why so many people fight for the position of the White House.

The Congress has a lot of power, but it is a Congress of hundreds of people.

The White House is just a one-person White House. Because of its absolute power, whether it is a staff team or a member of the cabinet, it is necessary to obey the president who is the head of state and the commander-in-chief of the armed forces. Otherwise, he will be fired.

On the other hand, whether it is the investigation suddenly launched by the Ministry of Justice, or the game between the two parties in the United States using the Westeros system as a gimmick at the last moment of the general election, they are just a continuation of the wealth list that shocked the world released yesterday.

$1.5 trillion!

What kind of wealth is this, too many people are completely unable to understand, but, no matter what, everyone understands that such a wealth is too huge, so huge... It has caused many people to have a An uneasy feeling.

Therefore, the investigation initiated by the Ministry of Justice today, even though many Republicans such as Bob Dole and the right-wing media pointed out the possible thoughts, but as long as someone attacks the Westeros system and that man, then, Everyone will feel better.

Mr. President's goal of taking the lead in making moves can be regarded as achieved.

You know, not just the high-ranking young man, the entire list, 400 people, still does not include Bill Gates and other rich people who are less related, but billionaires who can be called 'Westerosian', compared to last year's 37 people , with the B girl who founded the Alia company and many other newcomers on the list, this year the number has rapidly increased to 53, that is to say, more than one-eighth of the people at the top of the country's wealth pyramid are from Victoria. Stroh system.

How does this feel balanced? !

Therefore, in the turbulent public opinion, some people once again proposed the wealth tax. An additional tax should be levied on the group of people at the top of the pyramid to reduce the wealth inequality in this society.

However, because of the fresh memory of a series of risky and tough actions by someone two years ago, and the strength of the Westeros system itself is also quietly rising to a higher level, whether it is the media or the political circles, the influence Lidu is not what it used to be. Therefore, this time, when someone mentions it again, the number of responders is far less than that of two years ago, and the response is even less.

Others countered that if some people are forced to deprive because they have too much wealth, it is tantamount to shaking the foundation of capitalist society.

After all, the United States is not the former Soviet Union.

Of course, the Westeros system will not remain indifferent. The guidance of public opinion has started even before the release of the "Forbes" list. One of the important trends is to start criticizing the serious bubble of technology stocks. False news has instilled in the public the notion that the personal fortunes of Simon Westeros and other tech tycoons are not real and are mostly just bubbles.

The spirit of Ah Q is common all over the world.

Since Simon Westero's more than 1 trillion US dollars or the billions and tens of billions of wealth of other technology stock tycoons are just bubbles, naturally there is not much to envy.

At the same time, the Westeros system has once again begun to publicize the benefits of new technologies to ordinary companies on a large scale, launching a large number of companies that rely on the Internet platform to create blogs, publish videos, make games, etc. The cases of millionaires and multimillionaires are used to tell the public that the Internet is open to anyone, and everyone has the opportunity to rely on the Internet to realize their American dream.

The uproar over the latest Forbes list has spread around the world, including China, of course.

Moreover, this time, this list, or to be precise, someone on this list, aroused the ideas of many people in the upper class of China.

这个人排行今年《福布斯》美国400富豪榜榜单的第387名，个人财富5亿美元，比第400名的4.3亿美元门槛只多了7000万美元，附注的涉及产业同样是热门的‘科技’领域。

On the original list in English, the rich man's name is Su Lin.

Lin Su.

This Lin Su is naturally Pi Lin Su.

At the beginning, many people didn’t react, and they didn’t think in a certain direction at all. After all, they subconsciously felt that the “Forbes” list was so high-end, and it was an American list. What did it have to do with the Chinese, until A certain girl who had been doing bad things on purpose from the beginning and got the cooperation of her boss took the initiative to release the news, and everyone suddenly realized.

A certain Lin Su turned out to be a Chinese girl who had just immigrated to the United States for only two years.

$ 5 billion.

It seems that there are not many on the "Forbes" list, but according to the exchange rate of US dollar to RMB, it is equivalent to 43 billion RMB.

What is the concept of 43 billion RMB?

There happened to be a very interesting comparison. In 1995, "Forbes" paid attention to the rich people in mainland China for the first time. For this reason, it listed a list of 17 people. The total personal wealth of these 17 mainland rich people is only 41 billion yuan. , not as good as Lin Su who suddenly appeared.

Chapter 1017 In China (1)

In Hong Kong, CICC, the first investment bank in China, is located in the conference room of its headquarters in Central Plaza. The meeting that lasted for an hour and a half has just ended.

The time is already November 8, Thursday.

This was a meeting with only a dozen participants, but the standard was very high, because the content of the meeting was to discuss matters related to the introduction of cornerstone investors for the listing of China Telecom in Hong Kong.The so-called cornerstone investors refer to some highly credible investment institutions, well-known companies or rich and famous people who are selected in advance during the IPO process of a company to make guaranteed subscriptions, so as to further strengthen market confidence.

In the just-concluded meeting, most of the participants were potential cornerstone investors of China Telecom's overseas listing, but they were basically Chinese businessmen from Southeast Asia who had good relations with China.

Except for two women.

Among a group of middle-aged and elderly men, Chen Qing and Lin Su, who are quite outstanding in appearance and temperament, are quite eye-catching. The two women are participating in this meeting as the direct personal representatives of Simon, and Westeros Corporation will also participate in the meeting. Participate in early subscription as a cornerstone investor.

Compared with Southeast Asian Chinese businessmen, the name 'Westero' alone is enough to support the cornerstone investor role of this IPO, whether it is credibility or capital strength.Simon didn't completely monopolize the idea of ​​the role, though.

Whether it is meat or soup, sharing is the kingly way.

Of course, after all, the volume is placed here. Compared with the total subscription quota of US$10 billion from various Chinese businessmen convened by CICC, only Westeros alone contributed US$5 million.

According to the current listing plan that is basically determined, the total financing amount of China Telecom’s IPO, which will be listed ahead of the end of the year, is about US$50 billion. Now, the IPO plan is still advancing, and the subscription share of US$15 billion has been determined in advance, and Subscribers all have quite strong international appeal, basically declaring that the IPO will be smooth sailing.

At the end of the meeting, everyone got up one after another. As the younger generation, Chen Lin and the two girls originally planned to stay behind, but a group of middle-aged and elderly men also took the initiative to slow down. When the two girls approached, one of them invited in Mandarin: "Xiao Lin, tonight Do you have time, Zheng Sheng has a reception in Repulse Bay tonight, if you are interested, you can go and have a look."

Feeling the rather friendly tone of this tall and thin man wearing glasses, Lin Su instinctively felt a little uncomfortable, and declined politely: "Sorry, Mr. Li, Xiaoqing and I will return to the mainland soon."

"Oh, it's okay, I hope to have a chance next time."

As the other party spoke, not only was there no displeasure in the slightest, but he also took out a business card and handed it over. Lin Su took it politely, and did not forget to take out his own business card to exchange with the big bosses present.

After greeting like this for several minutes, the two women were able to get away.

Accompanied by four female maids and guards, they went downstairs and got into the car. Looking at Chen Qing, who had been acting like a servant just now but now grabbed her handbag and began to check her business card, Lin Su gave her a weak look: " Since you are more interested in these, why push me out?"

The news about Lin Su's entry into the "Forbes" 400 rich list of the United States ranked 387 has spread rapidly in recent days.

Of course, just now a group of Chinese businessmen took the initiative to get close to Lin Su, not because of her personal net worth of 5 million U.S. dollars. After all, this money is not ranked among the people just now. The key lies in the well-known man standing behind Lin Su , now in this world, no one can ignore the name 'Simon Westeros'.

Chen Qing smiled like a little fox, unceremoniously stuffed a stack of business cards into her bag, and said, "Because I want to be behind the scenes."

Lin Su was speechless, inexplicably thinking of someone again, and said: "You...you know how to bully me."

Having said that, the car had just left the underground parking lot of the building. Lily Favel, who was in the front passenger seat, felt something, took out a vibrating mobile phone from her bag and handed it to Lin Su: "Lin, your father's phone number, He already called once during your meeting with Chen."

Lin Su subconsciously raised her hand, flinched again, finally took the phone over and pressed the answer button: "Dad... yes, he's still here... I'll be back soon, um, I mean, Xiaoqing and I are going Beijing...fake, I don't have 5 million dollars... No matter how authoritative a magazine is, it will make mistakes, Dad, don't listen to other people's nonsense, okay... I'm not sure, maybe after a few days in Beijing, I'm going back to the United States Oh...Dad, he is my boss's boss's boss, I don't know how many levels higher, I won't see him for a few months...Okay, I'm going to get on the plane, that's all for now."

Lin Su hurriedly finished speaking, and hung up the phone directly. Seeing that Chen Qing was still watching the fun, she casually threw the Nokia over: "Here, I'll give you everything."

Chen Qing took the phone with a smile, and joked, "You're quite fluent in lying."

Lin Su glared at her: "When did I lie?"

Chen Qing blinked, then nodded: "Yeah, I'm not lying at all, you really don't have 5 million US dollars, and now you only have 4.1 million US dollars in cash in your account, and some other company shares, etc., should add up to more than 5 million dollars. It’s [-] million U.S. dollars, and I’m not lying.”

"..."

After Simon’s proposal last time, the two women have successively cashed out their respective 2.65% of Scooper’s shares. According to the closing data of the 400 richest people in the United States on August 8, the market value of Skopper had reached 16 billion US dollars at that time.

A 2.65% stake is $5.06 million.

Therefore, if the two women did not cash out, the statistics on the "Forbes" list would not be too biased.

As for why Lin Su only has 4.1 million US dollars on the book at this time, the main reason is that it is impossible to choose the high point on August 8 during the cash-out process. Moreover, the money has not yet been taxed. Profits tax, probably only 16 million US dollars left.

In any case, a woman who immigrated to the United States for only two years suddenly had hundreds of millions of dollars in cash in her personal account. Even Lin Su herself was a little at a loss now.What was even more unexpected was that her partner and a certain hateful man teamed up and secretly pushed her to this year's "Forbes" 400 richest people in the United States.

Seeing Lin Su's dazed look, Chen Qing was about to continue to say something when the cell phone she just picked up rang again, and she picked it up without thinking: "Hello... oh, Minister Wu, I'm Xiao Chen... Ah Su, she has fallen asleep and is a bit tired these days, do you need me to wake her up... Oh, that's good... Yes, the meeting just ended and we are rushing to the airport... Tomorrow morning... no problem, Well, I'll tell her when she wakes up, that's all."

After hanging up the phone, Chen Qing saw Lin Su come over and said, "Ministry of Posts and Telecommunications, I hope we... um, no, it's Ms. Lin, and I've agreed to help you participate in a seminar on China's information industry tomorrow morning." .”

"..."

Chen Qing looked at her: "How about I go for you?"

Lin Su glared at her: "I'm not going to take you with me."

Chen Qing immediately went over aggrieved: "A Su, how could you treat me like this..."

The hairy Lin Su raised his hand and hit her several times.

Chen Qing was not angry after being beaten, but laughed instead: "It seems that I made a little mistake, if I knew it earlier, I would have taken the lead myself."

"You understand now?"

"I'm just joking with you," Chen Qing immediately changed her tone: "I don't intend to show off this kind of limelight, um, Asu... well, ok, Susu... oh, don't fight anymore, I mean , I will be your assistant from now on, so you can stay in the mansion and be a young mistress, and I will try my best to help you with other things."

Lin Su hit her again angrily, thought for a while, and said, "By the way, in the media, I mean, I don't want to make a fuss in China."

"Don't worry, I've already taken care of it in advance, and this matter will definitely not appear in the public media."

Lin Su immediately asked again: "Then in private, why did my father suddenly know?"

Chen Qing smiled and said, "Everything you should know, you must know."

Lin Su pouted, wanting to say something, but didn't say anything.

Chen Qing waited for her to calm down for a while before saying again: "Hey..."

"Ok?"

"Your money, how about I help you take care of it."

Lin Su paused and said, "I want to ask his opinion."

"What's the boss' opinion? Do you think he values ​​your little money? We men have $1.5 trillion?"

Lin Su didn't pay attention to the titles like "our men" in Chen Qing's words, but she didn't say any more.

Although... such a huge amount of money is lying in her account, deep down, Lin Su always feels that she is just helping him to keep a sum of money. After all, since she was a child, she never thought about herself Be a billionaire someday or something.

Seeing that she didn't answer, Chen Qing suddenly thought of another thing: "By the way, I can tell you about this money, don't donate randomly like before."

Lin Su just gave her a blank look.

In the past two years, Lin Su can be said to have donated a lot of money to various domestic charity organizations, but that was basically just her salary. As for the money in her hand, it was due to some reason, and she had no intention of using it indiscriminately. , and even thought that she should return it to him. After all, the money was too much, and she felt that she couldn't bear it.

After Chen Qing finished speaking, she looked at Lin Su's expression carefully, felt relieved a little, leaned on the leather chair, mentioned the meeting she just attended, and couldn't help but said: "I don't know what the boss thinks this time, if it wasn't for Wei Wei Instead of subscribing under the name of Stroll Company, but choose a third party as the medium, maybe we can get a lower discount."

As a cornerstone investor, you often have to bear higher risks, and at the same time, you will naturally enjoy corresponding benefits.

Of course, this part of the discount is generally not displayed in the open.

Lin Su heard Chen Qing's words, turned her head to look over, subconsciously wanted to say something, paused, and fell silent again.

Chen Qing noticed Lin Su's expression, and slightly hooked the corners of her mouth.

Arrived at the airport, boarded a Gulfstream V business jet that almost became the private car of the two women, departed from Hong Kong, arrived in the capital in the evening, and then drove back to Simon's courtyard house in Mao'er Hutong, Nanluoguxiang.

Recently, this courtyard is no longer just a group of maids.

Zhu Momo and his group returned to China a few days ago, and they were personally arranged here by Chen Qing, who also took care of Simon's various properties in China, and they were under their noses.

So, in the courtyard now, besides the original team of maids, there are five more people at once, namely Zhu Momo, Jill Pector, Zhao Anni, Li Youhu and Teacher Yu.Of course, with the size of this courtyard house, let alone five more people, even if it was doubled, it would still be more than enough.

"Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon", which is in the final preparatory stage, is expected to be launched in late September. It plans to shoot some scenes in Beijing first, so the crew is currently stationed in the capital, so Li Youhu and others can stay here.

When the filming starts, everyone will start traveling across the country.

Compared with China, where the news spread is not fast after all, Jill Pector and the others have already got the news that Lin Su has entered the "Forbes" list in advance. .

Therefore, when Chen Qing and Lin Su returned, they happened to meet Zhu Momo, Li Youhu and others who had just come back from Chinese opera classes nearby all day long. When they saw Lin Su, the one who touched Lin Su the most was Jill. pector.

Although, with a net worth of 295 billion U.S. dollars this year, she and another Tinkobel founder tied for No. 400 on the Forbes 3 Rich List in the United States is Jill Pector's ultimate goal, but let alone the net worth Girl C, who is already close to 300 billion US dollars, even the other three girls A, B, and D are still far away from her.

Coincidentally, Simon set her career goal in China again, so for Lin Su, the woman who ranked 387th on this year's list, unknowingly became the most direct target of Jill.

And it's relatively promising.

After all, it only took Lin Su two years to start from scratch, and Jill didn't think she would be much worse than the other party.

No matter what their thoughts are, after meeting, the women were very warm to each other, and after a while of pleasantries, they came to the inner courtyard together. Chen Qing, Lin Su and others still lived in the west wing, and Zhu Momo and others moved in. In the east wing, no one lived in the main room, and no one offered to live in it. After all, the place belonged to a certain man by default.

Unless the other party comes, they can only go in at night.

From evening to dinner, Teacher Yu and Li Youhu felt that they should not ignore them. After all, they had become Simon's women a few days ago.It's just, well, transparent people also have the benefits of transparent people. It's quite interesting to watch Chen Qing and Zhu Momo secretly confront each other.

"I've also read the script of "Speak Well", and it's a very interesting story." At the dinner table, everyone gathered together. Compared to the quiet Lin Su, Chen Qing naturally took the initiative in the confrontation , said to Zhu Momo: "However, at this stage, China's film industry, huh, basically there is no film industry, including Youhu's "Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon", which is actually a good movie for me, so, Mo Mo, you don't have to be too concerned."

Zhu Momo just talked about his upcoming cooperation with Zhang Guoshi. Of course, he could not help showing off a little bit, but he didn't expect to be evaluated by Chen Qing immediately. With a girl's character, of course she would not give in, and counterattacked: "Chen Qing Sister, according to what you said, is Simon's emphasis on the Chinese film industry completely unnecessary?"

Chapter 1018 In China (2)

Not to mention now, even after more than 20 years, the total annual box office of the Chinese film industry, which seems to have entered its peak period, is not even as good as a crayfish farming industry.Of course, Chen Qing couldn't see the future, but when faced with Zhu Momo's question, she said without any hesitation: "Maybe it's really unnecessary."

Zhu Momo's eyes widened slightly. After all, she was not as good as Chen Qing, and blurted out: "I will tell Simon."

Chen Qing showed a disdainful expression: "Only brats make small reports."
