Chapter 332

Name:Hollywood Hunter Author:Just Do
Aware of the side of the man when the sky is bright, quietly up.

I didn't wake up.

I don't know how long later, the sky in the gap of the curtain is still not as bright as it should be in the early morning. Sleepy, I grope to put on my underwear, get out of bed barefoot, come to the window and open the curtain of the French window. In front of me is a gloomy scene of drizzle.

The sky, the lake and the city buildings on the other side are shrouded in this gloom.

The mood did not become gloomy, but enjoyed it.

A chill came.

Facing the cold breath, I went out of the bedroom and leaned on the balcony railing to look around, not worried about being seen.

This is a villa on Mercer Island in the middle of Lake Washington. It's located in Seattle. It's more than two acres of luxury house. It's surrounded by green trees. The city on the other side of the lake is also covered by rain.

When I majored in advertising and art in University, I didn't write for a long time, but I had an impulse to draw the scenery around me.

I don't belong to myself.

A 33 year old woman, who doesn't feel she's getting old, is feeling frustrated.

I wish I had such a house of my own.

Just like the fantasy when I left the campus, I created my own advertising company, owned a beautiful house, free from material constraints.

Then, there is the gap between ideal and reality.

At school, she was the cheerleader, the queen of Homecoming Day, the envy of girls and the target of boys.

Into society, all of a sudden nothing.

Think of yesterday afternoon, heard that little man so naturally invited, feel that he is too overbearing, but not much resistance.

Should be some yearning.

Yearning for a world that I have never touched.

So, after finishing work, I went home to change my clothes. When a car came to pick her up, I sat on it and imagined what would happen next night.

The result is still beyond her imagination.

Dinner was eaten on his Boeing 767. I had never experienced it before, and I even felt a bit fantastic.

A very luxurious plane.

I didn't feel much flaunt from him.

Or, the young man who has already been enveloped in too many auras does not need to show off any more.

It's just natural.

It's like, well, he takes it for granted when he "invites" himself.

It's like the whole of Hollywood is his.

He is the king.

You can take whatever you want.

In the face of the king's request, she didn't even have the courage to be reserved.

After dinner, the plane landed in Seattle at night.

The airport is in Langton city on the South Bank of the great lake. After leaving the airport, board a speedboat nearby, cross Lake Washington, and then enter the mansion.

It's kind of like coming home from work.

However, it's not the kind of driving on the congested road for two hours and coming home tired.

It's smooth.

Though.

Well, it's thousands of miles away from Los Angeles.

Thinking wildly, a thick Cotton Bathrobe suddenly wrapped around her.

Turn around, is the man's genial smile.

Let the whole body be wrapped in the bathrobe, he took the waist, hesitated, originally slightly backward, she leaned forward, in the man's lips to kiss, said: "good morning."

"Good morning," Simon said, looking at the woman whose brown hair had been soaked by the rain. "I don't want to disturb you to see the scenery, but believe me, the cold is not good at all."

"It's beautiful here." She answered, not knowing whether it was an explanation or something else. She paused, looked into the man's eyes and said, "well, what are we going to do today?"

"Breakfast first, then back to Los Angeles."

"Ah?"

Simon said patiently, "I'm sorry, but I'm very busy. I'm afraid I can't spend the weekend with you."

I would like to say that I can spend the weekend here alone.

It's just that it seems a bit abrupt.

He nodded obediently.

Simon looked at the woman's wet hair and said, "I'd better take a bath first. Don't really catch a cold. I'll wait for you downstairs."

He was pulled away from the terrace by a man and entered the bathroom. When he closed the door, he finally summoned up courage and asked, "would you like to come with me?"

Simon smiles, shakes his head and reaches out to help the woman with the bathroom door.

More than half an hour later, Sheila ward walked out of the bedroom. She was already wearing yesterday's black coat and corset skirt, which showed her figure.

It's easy for a man to be deterred by a woman wearing black. She wore black on purpose yesterday.

It doesn't work for him. Men still seem to like it.Stroking the handrail of the stairs, he walked down the stairs and looked around curiously.

Downstairs, I saw a young girl in a light blue professional suit tidying up the sofa in the living room. Noticing her appearance, the girl politely said, "good morning, Ms. ward."

As if nothing had happened, he took back his hand and nodded in response: "good morning, B."

This is one of the stewardesses on his private plane. She is blonde, tall and young. He calls her "B" and another is "a". Last night, the man introduced her casually. In fact, it's Becky and Alison. He seems to like this simple name.

I don't know if there are "C" and "d".

There should be.

I don't know myself.

Well, it should be "s".

However, he didn't call himself that. He didn't even like to shout his name, and he didn't use intimate words like "honey". Just speak, and then she knows he's talking to her.

In front of her, the girl's attitude towards her was obviously cold and hostile, and it was hard to hide her admiration.

Of course I know why.

They were younger and more beautiful, but he was more interested in her.

All of a sudden, he was a little proud. It was intentional to follow him to call her "B".

Enjoying the feeling of superiority that I seldom feel after leaving campus, I raised my chin slightly and asked the girl in front of me, "where's Simon?"

Becky's voice was obviously colder when she saw her like this, but she said professionally: "in the restaurant, Ms. ward, please follow me."

Simon is reading a newspaper at the dinner table.

Seeing her coming in, the man said hello and indicated that Becky could bring breakfast.

Sheila ward sat down opposite Simon, raised her chin naturally, and asked, "is there any interesting news today?"

Simon also looked at the New York Times in his hand and said: "at the meeting of member states of the Arab Cooperation Committee yesterday, Saddam Hussein called on the Middle East countries to unite and make use of their unparalleled energy advantages to build a community of interests that can compete with Europe and North America."

Shira ward blinked a few times, with a little resentment in her expression, and said, "do men become so perfunctory after they succeed?"

Simon nodded with a heavy expression: "yes, it's a cruel reality."

Sheila ward wanted to catch something and threw it over. She glanced at the clean table and had to give up. She asked, "what's special about this news?"

Simon said faintly, "there's going to be a war."

Shira ward wondered, "why, just because the Middle East countries want to build an Energy Union? After so many years of confrontation between the Soviet Union and us, we did not and did not fight. "

"It's not the same," Simon said, shaking his head. "The federal army may not be able to beat the Soviet Union, but it's still easy to beat the Middle East countries. What's more, there's oil there."

Sheila ward frowned a little and said a moment later, "Simon, do you want to fight?"

"No, I'm a staunch anti war activist."

"In that case, Simon, you can try to use your influence to stop the war."

"I think self destruction is the doomed end of human beings, so I will not try to stop this kind of thing, because it is inevitable," Simon shook his head, looked at the newspaper in front of him, thought of something, and whispered, "war, war has never changed."

Sheila ward was a little dazed. She felt a sense of hopelessness and desolation by mumbling a few words to the young man.

There should be a long story behind this sentence.

But she never heard of it.

Alison and Becky bring breakfast. Simon closes the newspaper and smiles again. He seems to forget the topic and says to the woman, "look, you like this place very much. Otherwise, you can spend the weekend here. I'll send someone to pick you up tomorrow afternoon."

This thought, but, listen to the man put forward, she subconsciously shook her head: "or not, I'm here alone, don't know where to go."

"There are many places to go, such as the space needle tower, the University of Washington, the Olympic National Park. By the way, I heard that there is a chewing gum wall in pike market. You can go and have a look at it and stick it on yourself."

Shira ward picked up the cutlery that Alison had handed her and shook her head with a smile. "It's disgusting to think about it. Besides, it's raining outside. I'd better go back to Los Angeles with you. "

After breakfast, the group left Mercer Island in the middle of the lake by speedboat, arrived at Langton airport close to the south bank, and boarded to return to Los Angeles.

It took less than two hours from the rainy days in Seattle to the sunny days in Los Angeles.

Shira ward got off the plane at Los Angeles International Airport and found that Simon didn't mean to leave the airport with him, so she knew he had another trip.

Taking the car that the man specially called to see her off from the airport, Sheila ward watched another plane in the airport roar into the sky. Suddenly, there was a feeling that the pumpkin car and crystal shoes were all gone.Cinderella can wait for her own prince.

She is only a passer-by to him.

Hateful man!

From Seattle to Los Angeles and from Los Angeles to New York, Simon didn't waste more than six hours of flying time. He was reading all kinds of materials prepared by cersei capital all the way.

After this period of negotiation, cersei capital and Blackstone Group reached an agreement of US $75 million to acquire 50% equity of Blackstone financial management company. The US $3 billion capital and Lawrence Fink's team in charge of Blackstone financial management company will be transferred to cersei capital as a whole.

In addition, Janet has re planned the subsidiaries of cersei capital. At present, the three subsidiaries confirmed to be established are cersei fund management company, Apollo management company and black rock asset management company. Cersei fund management company is naturally cersei capital's most direct family, and the other two companies are the names given by Simon according to the information in his memory.

Naturally, there is no need to say that the Apollo management company also exists in the original time and space.

In terms of ownership structure, the three subsidiaries are all co owned by the parent company cersei capital and the operation team, and each has its own business focus.

Cersei fund management company is mainly engaged in financial hedging business, Apollo management company is responsible for leveraged M & A, vulture investment and other alternative investments, and Heiyan asset management company is engaged in mainstream securities, stocks, fixed income and other low-risk investment business.

After the establishment of the three subsidiaries, sub funds 6 to 10 were completely controlled by cersei capital again, and funds were allocated to the subsidiaries according to the actual situation.

The biggest advantage of this is that the funds raised by cersei capital are still nominally held by sub funds 6 to 10, and the sub company teams are only responsible for managing them.

In case of loss or other situation of the subsidiary team, cersei capital can flexibly recover the capital to avoid the situation deteriorating.

Furthermore, the subsidiary team can even be directly disbanded and the subsidiary can be cancelled. At the same time, capital will not be lost because of the turmoil of the subsidiary.

This kind of adjustment is also inspired by the acquisition of Blackstone financial management company.

The funds of Blackstone financial management company are raised separately, and Lawrence Fink's team wants to change jobs collectively. Blackstone Group is hard to make a radical move, so it can only choose to compromise and sell the shares of the company.

Wall Street has paid close attention to a series of recent trends of cersei capital, and investors' investment intentions are also very active. Obviously, many people expect cersei capital to continue to create the profit miracle of Simon's financial operation in recent years.

Facing the expectation of the circle, Simon didn't have much pressure.

Simon knows very well that cersei capital does not need to continue to create miracles. As long as the company has a performance that exceeds most of its peers on Wall Street, it can continue to grow and grow in the future.

With the advantages of the prophet in the next 20 years and the management of a group of excellent talents, Simon is very confident in achieving this goal.

In addition to the two teams of cersei fund management company and black rock asset management company, Janet recently recruited the merger and acquisition business team of the other side from Dechong securities company, which filed for bankruptcy in early January, to form the team of Apollo management company. The leader of the team is Leon black. After receiving cersei capital's invitation and 30% equity promise, black quickly gave up the original plan to work alone and led the team to cersei capital.

We are all smart people. If we work alone, it will be difficult for Black's team to obtain too much capital from investors in the short term because of the work experience of the bankrupt tezon securities.

In contrast, cersei capital has directly promised Leon black $1 billion of initial operating capital, and has prepared for their next stage of work: vulture investment in the still volatile US junk bond market.

The total size of the US $200 billion junk bond market, a large part of which is very repayable.

However, as the overall bond market continues to deteriorate, the prices of many bonds with solvency have also plummeted. As long as we can find out these bonds and take the opportunity to buy them at a price far lower than the book value, and when the economic situation turns better and the enterprise recovers, investors can get very rich returns in the process of debt repayment.

Looking for valuable assets from a pile of seemingly dying financial ruins is the basic idea of vulture investment.

Janet did a lot of research on the U.S. junk bond market last year and accumulated a lot of information, so she and Lawrence Fink talked about Condor investment at a reception at the rebalders' house some time ago.

However, if we know about the US junk bond market, probably no one can compare with the team of tezon securities.
