Chapter 1691

Name:Hollywood Hunter Author:Just Do
In the morning, she came to the restaurant with the baby who had celebrated her first birthday yesterday. Emma Reston found that the man who came in early was missing again. She was curious about the housekeeper who was putting the tableware. She learned that the man had just been sprinkled with a glass of milk on his pants and had to change it.

Wait a moment, the man reappears.

Gesturing to the little guy in her arms to say hello to her father, Emma glanced at the waitress following the man.

This is a beautiful beauty with standard blonde hair and blue eyes from the attendant team provided by the Westeros family. Emma also noticed that the maid's uniform collar was slightly open, revealing a small piece of delicate skin and a perfect collarbone like a jade carving.

Probably understand something.

Some common female tricks.

However, Emma didn't plan to investigate, because whenever she thought of herself, she always felt that there was such a thing as fate in the world. If the girl has a certain fate, she can't stop it. If not, no matter how hard you try to show off and seduce, it will certainly be useless.

What's more, Emma doesn't think that even if she is so lucky, it means that other girls can easily walk up to a man. It's true. The other party must not have time to attend his little Jack's birthday party in person now.

Therefore, even if the waitress waited for breakfast and took the initiative to stay and watch next to the little guy put on the children's chair, Emma didn't rush, and occasionally instructed the other party to do some small work as usual.

The topic discussed with men is not taboo.

After all, these people around her, to some extent, are also the assistants arranged by the Westeros family for her, and they are all excellent ones.

"Simon, the foundation I am responsible for, I have some doubts. Why should we fund primary education in primary and secondary schools? I have made some understanding in private. Theoretically, it is more in our interests to invest in higher education?"

It's the public welfare fund that Emma is responsible for.

This is an education fund, mainly for Kansas, where Emma was born. The funding direction is primary and secondary education in Kansas, helping to build schools, recruiting better teachers, providing financial aid for poor students, and so on.

Of course, it also undertakes some tasks to help the Westeros find talents.

The gifted children in Solvay college did not fall from the sky.

Simon picked up the housekeeper and quietly put on a glass of milk with the right temperature, sipped it, looked at Emma across the street, smiled and said, "I used to think the same as you."

Emma hum, slow down the action of eating, seriously look at the man opposite, waiting for an answer.

Simon said, "maybe you should have experienced how bad the federal primary education system is, and according to our survey, this situation continues to deteriorate. The public wants to get a good education and even change their lives, often they can only enter expensive private schools, but this is unbearable for most ordinary people."

Emma thought she understood, nodded, and subconsciously complimented, "Simon, you are really a kind person."

"I said..." Simon smiled, saw the sincere appearance of the woman opposite, and simply did not say, Then he said: "Although I can accept your praise without blame, this matter does have a deeper consideration. In our country, a large number of top private schools, through the monopoly of high-quality educational resources, have actually hindered the rising channel of the whole society. This is the instinct of vested interests, and I don't want to say anything more. However, a country, in such a world with sustained and rapid development of science and technology, wants to be strong, If we want to remain strong for a long time, we must have a perfect education system for all. Otherwise, only a small number of elite classes have mastered the top-level knowledge, and in fact, it is impossible to maintain the continuous operation of a huge society. "

After more than a decade or two, the United States desperately wanted to promote the return of manufacturing. However, the middle and low end, not to mention the most high-end industries such as semiconductor, wanted to move to the United States, but it was embarrassing to find that even enough qualified technical personnel could not be recruited. Fundamentally, this was a serious problem in the United States' own education system.

If Emma realizes something.

The waitress next to the ignorant little guy suddenly said, "Mr. westrow, I also know something about your concerns. Listening to you, I think Ms. treston's compliment just now is far from enough. Your long-term consideration for this country can be described as great."

Simon looked aside and remembered that the girl had just introduced herself. Claire Wheeler smiled and said, "have you studied this problem?"

Knowing that this was his chance, Claire Wheeler immediately nodded, "Mr. westero..."

"I prefer you to call me boss."

Claire immediately changed her words: "Boss, I graduated from Northwestern University majoring in journalism. In my junior year, I happened to do a social survey on federal education. Although it was limited to some areas around Evanston, Illinois, where the school is located, i... well, several classmates who did this survey also came to a very pessimistic conclusion that the poor primary education system is causing a very serious negative impact on our whole country For example, in recent years, the rapid relocation of various industries, in addition to cost factors, another very important reason is that enterprises are increasingly difficult to recruit a large number of highly educated professional workers. "

Emma listened to Claire talking with the man opposite. After the other party finished, she interrupted, "Claire, are you exaggerating? Although there are problems in the primary education system, the Federation has the best higher education system in the world, attracting the best foreign students from all over the world. We still don't lack talents."

Claire could feel Emma's taste. Considering that it might not be so easy to be taken away by a man today, he was smart under the eaves, didn't refute, but just looked at the man next to him.

Simon ignored the little confrontation between the two women.

Somehow, I think of Boeing, which is exactly Boeing's' famous' South Carolina factory.

When a super tycoon who is familiar with the inside story of the industry customizes Boeing's private aircraft, and even some commercial companies who know the inside story order aircraft, they often add a collateral condition: the aircraft produced by the South Carolina factory must be assembled by Boeing's Washington factory.

As for the reason, according to the news exposed after a series of Boeing failures and air disasters, many of the employees of Boeing's South Carolina factory did not have the corresponding professional engineer qualification at all. Before being recruited, some drove trucks, some sold insurance, and some were city cleaners

However, these people, after a period of so-called professional training, unexpectedly entered the Boeing aircraft assembly line with the highest professional requirements in the concept of ordinary people.

Ridiculous?

It sounds ridiculous, but it turns out to be so absurd.

As for the result, most people probably knew it later.

Putting all the blame on India's software problem is just a cover up.

Besides, the reason is that Boeing is not willing to recruit professional technical talents?

Definitely not.

Compared with the declining U.S. auto industry, Boeing has enough profit margins. Moreover, executives with a little brain should understand how high professional requirements such a company needs.

After all, no one can survive an accident in the air.

So why not?

Why?

Because we can't recruit so many professionals at all.

Of course, the United States has a strong attraction for the world's top talents for a long time. However, these people often don't want to enter Boeing or Ford factories to become assemblers when they go to the United States to study. After all, the group of foreign students, either rich or talented, can't run to become workers.

In short, if we want to solve the problem, we still need the United States' own education system to make talent hematopoiesis.

The problem is that when a country's basic education system has major problems, how can it carry out a complete "hematopoietic" output layer by layer?

Simon understood the problem from the beginning.

But at first, Simon just thought, what does this have to do with him?

Therefore, of course, as Emma thought, it is the plan with the least input and the highest output to directly invest their own resources into the American higher education system and pinch the talents who are about to mature.

However, I certainly don't think so now.

I still understand that the Westeros system is on this ship. Even if Simon has the ability to jump ship, once something happens, most of the assets of the Westeros system will sink with the ship.

Simon doesn't want to see this happen.

Since I don't want to, I can't think as simple as before, but I must do more things that are really good for the long-term navigation of this big ship.

It has become an inevitable thing to reverse the investment in the education system, give consideration to higher education, and constantly invest resources to reshape the federal primary education system.

After talking about these things and having breakfast, Simon said goodbye to Emma and her son and rushed to the headquarters of Westeros in downtown to start a day's work.

Just sitting down in the office, girl a sent an update.

On October 23, local time, yesterday, bloody conflict broke out again between Palestine and Israel. At the same time, many countries in the Middle East expressed solidarity with Palestine, and a mass rally at the level of one million people broke out in Yemen.

With the turmoil in the Middle East, yesterday's Monday, the international crude oil price once again hit a two-year high, pushing the crude oil price per barrel to a high of more than $35 with a 6.5% increase on the same day.

Speaking of it, 35 dollars a barrel of crude oil is a lot different from the high point of hundreds of dollars in Simon's memory.

However, even the current $35 has become unbearable for many countries. After all, in this era, money is still money, and inflation is far from so severe.

The first is, of course, the United States.

Moreover, what is more serious is that compared with later, the current United States is still a pure crude oil importer, and the era of shale oil is far from coming, so it is more affected by the fluctuations of international crude oil prices.

In fact, since September, the continuous conflict between Palestine and Israel broke out again, and the crude oil price soared all the way, and the people on the federal side began to be dissatisfied gradually.

So, also yesterday, there was a small-scale demonstration against the rise in oil prices in Miami, Florida.

Ordinary people watch the excitement.

For Simon, of course, one can distinguish the twists and turns at a glance.

Not to mention the international excitement, the domestic side, Florida.

This is a key swing state.

The time for voting in the presidential election is getting closer and closer. It is obvious that now is the final stage of the game between all parties. All the means that can be used are spared no effort, and no one will stay.

First of all, between Palestine and Israel, Clinton can be said to have been on the verge of reaching a peace agreement for eight consecutive years in two terms, and finally failed for various reasons. Now, approaching the US presidential election, the Middle East is suddenly in chaos, leading to a sharp rise in international oil prices. If this is just a coincidence, it can only deceive children.

Simon can get more information.

So I know it's not a coincidence.

Anyway, everything is for the election.

After reading the information sent by girl a, Simon only felt a little ironic.

Now, maybe some people are dissatisfied with the authorities because of the continuous rise in oil prices and choose to vote for the Republican Party. However, those people probably ignore that someone is the spokesman of American oil group.

At present, the price of crude oil is only $35 a barrel. What is this?

If you're not satisfied with this, then try the taste of crude oil price exceeding $100 a barrel, tut tut.

Anyway, it's your choice.

Everything that should be done has been done. Now wait for the results in a few weeks. Simon finished reading the information and threw it aside. He didn't mean to do anything again.

Then I learned about Chevron's acquisition of Texaco, which has been contacted again.

This time, the response of Texaco is still not very positive for the time being.

After all, the recent rise in crude oil prices, followed by oil companies' profits and share prices will rise.

Simon is not in a hurry.

When a super bomb is thrown out, the whole energy industry will be depressed for a year or two. At that time, if you are not willing to let go, there are enough means to make Texaco's management comply.

After dealing with some daily businesses, Simon turned his attention back to Hollywood.

Today is October 24th.

Tuesday.

This year's Halloween schedule was already open last Friday.

Danielle here, the first film to be released is "cruise ship of terror" starring Kate Beckinsale, one of the "Thunderbolt babies".

Frankly speaking, the structure of this film is too complex, and Simon doesn't expect much about the performance of the film in the theater market. Therefore, the production cost of the project is $15million, and the publicity and distribution expenditure given here is only $7million, and the number of screens for painting is 2107.

It's a low configuration.

The key is to watch this Friday's "evocative 4".

However, under the operation of Lena Kane, the first weekend ended, and the result of "horror cruise" was fairly good. The revenue of $8.79 million in the first three days of the painting was expected to be about 14million in the first week. Such a start, 30million local revenue is certainly no problem.

Considering that this film is mainly aimed at the follow-up videos and other surrounding channel markets, it is obvious that it will also be a profitable small project.
