Chapter 1153

"Crim and Victor are crossed out, and there are other candidates related to ufms. In the future, ufms must remain absolutely independent."

"Boss, Victor is good to say. As for Kerim, the jelevyanko family is very powerful in Rovno. If you take him away, will there be any opinions? After all, it's just a seat in Parliament?"

"You just need to tell him it's my decision."

Boston, the western suburb of Weston, in the manor villa study.

Simon is discussing with Celia Miller the list of candidates for the vestro system in next year's Ukrainian parliamentary election.

The first parliamentary election after the promulgation of Ukraine's constitution is expected to be held in March next year. Although there is still more than half a year to go, it needs to be arranged in advance.

Celia Miller brought a list of the two leaders of Simon's Ukrainian employment corps, ufms (Ukrainian front line military service company), Klim jerevyanko and Victor costalev.

Simon's attitude is to cross it out.

Although he is a mercenary, for Simon, the army should have an army position, that is, to be as independent as possible. In practice, it is not easy. However, Simon must show his attitude.

It's also a test.

If two people, especially crim jellyvyanko, whose family is well-established in Rovno, are dissatisfied with this, it may be time for Simon to change the head of ufms.

As for the influence of the jelevyanko family, it is nothing in the face of the westero system. If there is a complete fall out, it is not a problem to eradicate it completely.

Celia Miller understood Simon's thoughts after a moment's thinking. She continued to review a series of lists with her boss. All the hundreds of candidates were members of the Ukrainian Progressive Alliance Party, which was just registered last year. It took more than two hours to select 20.

It's OK to double or even double the power of the Westeros system in Ukraine at this time. However, this is not the 1994 mid-term election in the United States three years ago when Simon continued to cultivate power and consolidate the foundation of the Westeros system. Therefore, it is still necessary to step by step.

The 20 member quota will not cause a rebound from the Kiev authorities, and it is enough to ensure the influence of the westero system in the Ukrainian parliament.

Moreover, in addition to the 20 members of the Progressive Alliance, Simon will deploy some dark elements in other forces.

The final list is all decided by Simon.

Simon doesn't intend to engage in democracy and discuss with each other in Ukraine. Simon just wants to show his power and see the reaction of Ukraine.

Who is for it?

Who is against it?

After more than three years of continuous operation, we need to look at the results again this time. By the way, we need to clean up again appropriately, so as to further consolidate the foundation of the Westeros system in Ukraine.

Looking at the list of 20 people, Celia Miller found that it was quite different from what she had imagined in private. Her boss was really blatant cronyism. Among the 20 candidates, seven were the parents and elders of a group of girls in livny. Although it can enter the list of 100 people, has been strictly reviewed in advance, but it still makes Celia have a sense of chaos.

If someone in the federal government does this, it will definitely be removed by the media and become a laughing stock.

However, if you think about it again, it is feasible in Ukraine.

After all, in such a small country, there are 450 members, which is the same size as the US House of Representatives. It is impossible not to be flooded. Moreover, with more people, it is difficult for the media and the public to distinguish who is who.

As for the Ukrainian media?

There is no need to worry about this. The media in the state of Rovno is basically under the control of the westero system, and the number of members will basically come from the state of Rovno and some surrounding areas, and will not compete for the share of other regions. If there are people who have to make trouble because of this, just break their wrists.

Simon also leans on the leather chair to review the final list. By chance, he looks up and notices Celia's expression beside him. He laughs and asks, "do you think I'm in a mess?"

Celia paused and nodded honestly.

pays attention to the official account: Book Club headquarters, focusing on sending cash and coins.

I can't help admiring.

Men are lucky to raise a group of girls in Ukraine.

Once upon a time, in Ukraine, oligarchs could push their drivers, lawyers and even family doctors to the position of Councillors. Simon didn't think it was wrong to do so. A country with a lot of fun only deserves councillors with a lot of fun.

With that in mind, Simon deflected the leather chair slightly against the ground, reached out and pulled Celia over and put her arms around her legs.

I've been addicted to hand feeding recently.

Then he explained, "I just do it on purpose. I just want to tell them that these councillors are just puppets. It's not so important. It's the most important thing for them to work for me at ease."In fact, some of them are still unclear.

Push the elders of those girls up, because these people have no foundation, and they can only rely on the Westeros system after they are in the upper position, so their loyalty is very guaranteed. Compared with them, jeleveyanko, they already have a certain strength. If they raise their strength a little more, they will inevitably not have other thoughts.

Celia Miller slipped off her high heels and curled up on the man in a more comfortable position. She nodded slightly and said, "the boss wants to see who can't help jumping out this time."

"Yes, any piece of land that is not cleaned up often will inevitably be overgrown with weeds." "I hope they can understand that these so-called seats have nothing to do with their elections, but I give them," Simon said, rubbing the slender waist of the woman wrapped in her thin shirt. If I don't give, they have to obey. If I resist, I'll give them nothing. "

Celia Miller has always been a woman who adores power. Listening to men's strong words, she just feels that her body is a little crisp. She can't help turning her head and kissing Simon with red lips.

Simon just click to stop, and the woman kisses, big hands on the woman's neck to pull her away: "I go to say goodbye to Maria, wait, we go to Uriah there."

Celia tilted her head slightly because of the strength of the man's hand. Her face was ruddy and she nodded obediently.

It was evening.

Simon left the study and went to the other room of the villa under the guidance of the maid. Maria and her daughter Anita were holding a small spot in their arms. They were watching TV and chatting, but they didn't see the three boys.

Seeing Simon come in, Anita greets him, puts the little guy in her arms into Simon's hands, and takes the initiative to leave.

Simon carefully held the baby in his arms, looked at it, and recognized that it was the little one. Maria was obviously Michael born to urijana and was still nursing the baby.

Ben decided Maria's character before she was allowed to raise her two children. Simon was not surprised. He looked at Maria and asked, "can you feed the two children?"

The woman nodded slightly reddened: "there is also a nurse. Wulia will often come here. She is very Well, that's not true. "

Simon imagined urienna's eye-catching chest curve, but said, "it's OK to come and feed the kids often, but when the kids grow up, try to teach them by yourself. Don't let them get in touch with urienna too much."

Maria couldn't help saying, "ulia is really nice."

"I don't have time to understand that. I just look at the results."

The result?

Maria was stunned before she understood.

Yeah.

As a result, her four children have been taught very well by her, while ulyanna's side just thinks that ulyanna can't do such things as driving her two children who want to stay in the United States back to Ukraine, at least.

In this way, men's choice is right.

I think Simon's arm is not comfortable enough. The little guy who had been squinting and dozing soon began to groan, as if there were signs of crying.

Simon tried to shake the baby to sleep, but he really cried.

Maria saw that the man was at a loss. While shouting, she wanted to put the little guy in her arms on the sofa next to her. As a result, the other one was not easy to be provoked. She was interrupted while she was sucking. She cried, too. Maria could only hold her again.

Soon a homely looking maid came in.

Obviously a Slavic girl, too.

The maid glanced at Maria and got confirmation. Then she came forward and took the baby from Simon. She sat down next to her and made a slight inspection. After confirming that the baby was not urinating or drowning, she raised her skirt and began to feed the baby.

Simon waited for the two children to be quiet and ignored. While feeding the baby, he glanced at his maid with a reddish face and said to Maria, "I have to go. I'll come to see you next time."

Maria wants to get up. Simon presses her down and she sits quietly saying goodbye to the man.

Some do not give up, but also gradually used to.

Fortunately, with so many children around, without a man, she would not feel lonely at all.

Simon and Maria said goodbye. Instead of leaving Boston, they took Celia with them to uliana's side and stayed in Boston in the evening.

The next day was August 11.

Monday.

In the new week, the focus of many people's attention is still the continuous turbulent Asian financial crisis.

Previously, on August 6, Malaysia was forced to give up the protection of its own fixed exchange rate after the Thai baht, announcing the second great victory of international speculators. After the loss of the Malaysian ringgit, the currencies of other countries, such as Indonesia and the Philippines, began to falter.

As a result, the stock market and bond market of all countries and regions in Asia are in a state of great sorrow, and the impact on North America and Europe is becoming more and more obvious.However, Simon knows that this is still not the most turbulent moment of the financial storm.

If history doesn't change much, the top of the storm should be in October.

In my memory, the Asian financial crisis in 1997 peaked in October of that year, which also led to the North American stock market triggering the first fuse after the 87 stock market crash.

The international speculators everywhere fanned the flames and attacked the cities, followed by the European and American authorities, who were awe inspiring and denounced the international speculators for their malicious attacks on Asian currencies. At the same time, the capitals led by the International Monetary Fund also launched rescue actions.

It's like an army burning, killing and looting in the front. The medical team in the same camp with the army helps the one who is devastated by the army to save lives and heal the wounded.

The picture is full of internationalist love and peace.

In the gale and heavy rain, the westero system also carries on its own layout step by step.

Returning to New York on Monday, one of Simon's tasks is related to the recent layout.

This time, it's mainly a wafer foundry in Taiwan.

TSMC.

At present, the semiconductor industry is still mainly self-produced, and TSMC is far from reaching its peak. In my memory, the NT dollar will fall around October. Coupled with the inevitable deterioration of the Asian economic situation, it is also the best time to enter the westero system.

TSMC's shares have been listed in Taiwan and the United States. Although the share price has not reached the lowest point at this stage, it is time to buy gradually.

In addition, since Nokia, tincobail and other technology enterprises of Westeros system have been arranged to squeeze South Korean oligarchs last time, TSMC will not miss it. However, compared with South Korea, westero system does not have many orders for TSMC. In other words, the current TSMC is far from reaching its peak, neither in terms of scale nor technology.

The rise of TSMC is also related to the financial crisis.

The Asian financial crisis in 1997 had a long-term impact on many industries. Many semiconductor companies in Japan, South Korea and even Europe and the United States went bankrupt in this storm. Later, in order to save costs, more and more semiconductor companies began to use OEM mode, which eventually led to the giant TSMC.

For TSMC, Simon does not pursue absolute control, but it is not a pure investment. His plan is to buy about 30% of the shares and the corresponding voting rights.

After all, it's cutting-edge technology. To meddle in is to mess with.

Simon won't do that.

Because semiconductor OEM is also a capital intensive enterprise, the continuous introduction of funds in the development process over the years has made the current shares of TSMC quite scattered. If you get 30% of the shares, you basically have a decisive say.

No amount is necessary.

Simon no longer pursues to make more money, but looks more at the transformation of the capital held by the Chinese vistrojan system to control various industries. It is Simon's desire that he can obtain more voice with the least capital.

In addition to the financial crisis, it's also the summer holiday in North America.

After the unexpected $29.13 million in the first week of large-scale release, the number of screens of Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon increased sharply again in the third week of release, from 1863 to 2315. Coupled with the continued popularity of the film, the box office decline of the film from August 8 to August 14 was only 17%, and it received another $24.16 million.

In three weeks, the $15 million Chinese martial arts movie has grossed $60.83 million in the North American market.

Even though the Kung Fu craze in recent years has made Hollywood attach great importance to the relevant subjects, a pure Chinese martial arts movie, which completely abandons the Western elements, costs only 15 million US dollars and earns more than 60 million yuan in three weeks. Obviously, it still has the potential to enter the box office Club of 100 million yuan, which still surprises a large audience.

Not only that, when crouching tiger, Hidden Dragon sold well in North America, but also in Britain, the influence of the six heroes of the pig also expanded.

With the aura of Cannes Palme d'Or, "the six heroes of the light pig" opened with 503 screens in the UK on August 8, and its own theme accidentally ignited the public opinion of the British media. Similarly, from August 8 to August 14, the first week of painting, this low-cost film with an investment of only 2 million pounds, won 8.16 million pounds at the box office, equivalent to US $12.51 million.

Although the British film market plays an important role in Europe, it can not be compared with North America.

In addition, the volume of "the six heroes of the pig" is 8.16 million pounds in the first week, which is also close to a miracle. Even the simultaneous release of "Independence Day" in the UK in July was more than 800 screens at that time, and the box office in the first week was only 8.68 million pounds.

Now, how can it not be surprising that the box office of a small film with an investment of 2 million pounds is almost the same as that of a blockbuster like independence day?

As a result, at the end of the summer season in August, when it was obvious that there were not many films that could attract attention, the public began to encounter the joint information bombing of Crouching Tiger, hidden dragon and the six heroes of the pig.It is clear that the two films are very small in scale. No matter the box office volume in a single week or the estimated total box office, they are far from being compared with the blockbusters such as tornado and independence day. However, inexplicably, there is a trend. Many people begin to pay attention to the various information of the two films every day.

A little research, this mentality is actually very easy to understand.

The west is a society that advocates individual heroism, and the public is happy to see the little people realize their big dreams.

Whether it's "tornado" or "Independence Day", it's inevitable to invest hundreds of millions of dollars, but it's sad to fail. "Crouching Tiger, hidden dragon" and "six heroes of the light pig", each of which is 15 million US dollars and the other is 2 million pounds, are now creating a box office far beyond their own size. This kind of counter attack of the weak can naturally bring a sense of resonance to most ordinary people.
