Chapter 124 Planning for future activities "Just answer my question." Abel responded to David Mellon in this way. But he didn't say he was looking for K Street, because he wanted the people on K Street to put pressure on Sony. He then shows up at the door and tries to find a way to buy back Spider-Man from Sony. If you say so. Even if this company were actually profitable, David Mellon would certainly say he didn't do his job well. According to David, Abel should work hard on Wall Street. Wall Street generates random amounts of money and earns many times more profits than other sectors. It's also easier and cleaner. With Abel's abilities, there is almost no risk. Making money is easy, so don't make it so easy. Run to another industry to make that small profit. David Mellon couldn't understand. Abel was fed up with David Mellon's words so he didn't speak directly. "GOOD." David Mellon didn't know what Abel wanted to do. He had to think for a moment and then said into the phone: "You don't have to look for me. Lapierre, didn't you have dinner with him not long ago? He is an excellent lobbyist. The reason he can hold this position is because he is excellent in that field. " When David Mellon called him back, Abel suddenly realized something. That's right, I don't need to use David to indirectly find related strings. Isn't the largest lobbying group in this country closely linked to itself? The National Rifle Association has always been a major customer of K Street. "Oh, that's right." Sitting on the sofa, Abel couldn't help but pat his thigh. "Thanks David for reminding me." » Abel said smiling. "Lapierre is Lapierre. If you need more, I can find more for you. After all, in this field, everyone is good at different angles. » "Like Lapierre, he clearly wasn't very good at finance," David Mellon said. If you need a financial lobbyist, there are better ones on Wall Street. "What if what I need is outside or related to the entertainment industry? » David Mellon was silent for a moment. We can guess that David is whispering to himself that Abel is bankrupt again. But David continued: "Okay, I will send you an email later. You can ask Merio directly or ask Jones to contact the other person. Next to Abel there were two Davids, one was David Jones and the other was David Mellon. David Mellon is Abel's right-hand man in finance and capital. David Jones is Abel's assistant in life and other less important business matters. Even though the two Davids haven't met yet. But they both knew that besides Abel there was another David. And that's important. In this regard, Abel could actually be better than Merio or David Jones if he puts his mind to it. Especially Merio, this guy has worked on Wall Street for almost two decades. Its job has always been not to invest and finance but to support related fields. "Understand." Abel replied to David Mellon: "Then you can send it directly to Merio. Later I will ask Merio to contact these people." "Okay~" David Mellon said. "RIGHT." Before hanging up, Abel repeated: "What is the oil price today? I mean the international oil price." "Let me see." David said. Then David reported something over the phone. After hearing this, Abel immediately ordered: "A good number. So David, we'll start briefly. » Abel noticed this after hearing his words about financial investments. David, on the other end of the line, was clearly excited. "Speak, my BOSS. I'm happy to fight for you again!" Abel smiled, held his cell phone and said: "Three billion US dollars, the ratio is still 1:1, and the leverage is 6-8 times. Sell international oil futures contracts at the current price." "clear!" David is decisive and honest. Abel hesitated for a moment then gently said: "By the way, you can also contact Mr. John J. Brown at the Texas Commerce Bank branch in New York." Hearing Abel's name, Abel realized it took him a few seconds to answer: "What do you mean?" "Here's what it means. In the future, Smith Capital will add Texas Commerce Bank." As Abel spoke, he heard David on the other side laughing lightly, his tone seemed happier. "Dear Abel, it seems you have gained a lot from your return to your homeland this time." Talking to smart people is easy, just ask David to contact John J. Brown. This generation N born in Mellon immediately thought of many things. Abel smiled and said: "It's too early to talk about the harvest. But there always has to be one more choice, right? Like I chose you, David." "Understand." » David Mellon said smiling. "GOOD. That's all." Abel said: "Let's talk next time, goodbye." "Okay~" Abel hung up the phone first and placed it on the table next to the sofa. Standing in simple, loose pajamas, he walks toward the giant floor-to-ceiling window of the guest bedroom in the Four Seasons Hotel's Ambassador Suite, overlooking downtown San Francisco below . Looking down from the upper floor, there was no sign of Mr. Nee or the homeless people downstairs. We only see a bit of cyberpunk, but at the same time it is incredibly beautiful, a magnificent and flourishing steel forest. It's not as good as New York, but downtown San Francisco is still thriving. Abel thinks about his company's next plan. Honestly, because he is not part of the business elite. Just a road network editor. Yuan is an old man with artistic talent, but he is only good at walking dogs, herding horses, and doing some American farm work. Once these two souls merge, it would be strange if they could suddenly become business elites. Without financial "talent", Abel believes that at most he can set aside a little money to invest in some listed companies in the future. Keep it in good hands and sell it again after ten years. In this way, it is estimated that they can earn more than dozens, even billions of dollars. In this state, I can live happily in America and that's enough. The important thing is that I was not only reincarnated but also had such "talent" in me. And Wall Street too. A happy life on Wall Street for more than ten months no longer made him satisfied with the life of a rich person. He wants more. It's just that these "extras" aren't easy to find. In any case, Wall Street alone cannot get them. If you rely solely on Wall Street, this can be risky. He had no other choice but to launch a large business project himself. The road has only just begun. He himself felt a little confused and couldn't control himself. Thinking of this, he felt a headache so he patted his forehead. "啪~" "Yeah, it's still not suitable for Germany anyway." You can only avoid it this way, by grasping the most important points possible. Don't think of yourself as an elite businessman and don't think of others as stupid. For the rest, we can only say that we took it step by step. Fortunately, he also knew that he was actually the two strongest places. One is my talent in finance. There are also family situations that can be strengthened by my financial influence. Keeping these two people, Abel felt that even if he continuously failed in business, it was nothing. Thinking like that, Abel felt much more comfortable. He doesn't think about it anymore, he has a complicated business plan. "That's it. Media and entertainment come first! But let's focus on energy and industry. » "In terms of media entertainment, currently there are CAA, ab Smith Entertainment, Marvel, ab Smith Newspaper and Isha. Don't count Isha, it is just a playground. It is a brokerage, film investment, business cinema and journalism." . media." After careful consideration, at this commercial chain. It also lacks film and television distribution capabilities. The movie channel is not vulnerable to attack and may then trigger the supreme law. After much thought about media and entertainment, Abel believes that next time he will focus on television channels and film distribution. Among them, the film's release is not very important. As long as you have the money, the movie will still be a good movie and you won't have to worry about not having a good distribution company. What matters is the TV channel. Abel stood in front of the bay window, his back to the sofa. He rummaged through nearby drawers and easily found paper and pen. He wrote down the television station's comments on paper. After clarifying this sector, Abel moved to the energy and industrial sector, which he really liked. The media are merely organs of personal expression and entertainment, while energy and industry are the backbone of people's ability to stand up. On the business side, to be honest, Abel has no idea. Energy is doing well and he now owns Aleswas and Electric Company in Texas. Although Ales Company is only a small and medium-sized energy company, it can be considered a new company. Subsequent capital injections can be used for expansion or direct mergers with other companies in the same industry. Thinking of this, he wrote "Energy merger" in the other corner of the newspaper. After confirming these two key points, he breathed a sigh of relief. "Let's do this now." Abel put down his pen, picked up an A4 piece of paper with a few simple lines written on it, and looked at it. At this moment, he heard light footsteps behind him. It was the sound of bare feet walking on the soft carpet. Abel turned his head and saw a faint light. Anne Hathaway's whole body no longer had a single thread, her whole body glowed, she weakly rubbed her eyes and then limped towards him. Unlike Jessica, this girl doesn't like to wear clothes when she's with him. "Honey what are you doing?" Anne Hathaway squinted her eyes for a moment, but when she woke up, she couldn't see Abel anymore. Hearing voices in the living room, he went out to find Abel. "Nothing, I was afraid of forgetting something so I wrote it down to improve my memory." Abel responded with a smile. As soon as he finished speaking, Annie came to his side. Then, without being polite at all, she sat directly on Abel's chest. Abel wears pajamas, but pajamas are also in his most primitive human state. Anne: Σ(°△°|||)︴ Abel: (→_→) "Oh, I just remembered that. I'm so hungry, I'm going to eat something." Annie stood up and said, Abel stopped her and took off her pajamas. "What's for dinner?" When the two left the room and wanted to find something to eat. It was around noon. To be honest, Anne Hathaway didn't want to go out at all. At that time, her limbs were limp, completely dependent on her boyfriend's support. He was now a pot-bellied man, his food consumption alone was equivalent to the food consumption of several rude men over two meters tall. Hotel staff take the time to clean the room. Let's go eat, after all the Four Seasons hotel also has a restaurant. And it is always open 24/24, dedicated to serving customers. Annie, who wasn't sleepy but was shaking with fatigue, was followed by Edward and the others. Abel took the elevator to the fourth floor of the building. There's a VIP restaurant at the Four Seasons hotel in downtown San Francisco. Going out of the elevator, the first person Abel saw was a stone guardian. He nodded at the other person, the other person was also happy and quickly responded to his boss. This employee arrived ten minutes early. This employee's work is done before the boss arrives. Come early, the boss will check the security situation. The stone guards accompanying him, not only this officer, three fell. With the direct transfer of Rock Security headquarters as well as Abel's long-term interest. This security company is becoming stronger and more professional in all related aspects. Edward did not stop himself from going down. Abel knew this meant that the rock's security had confirmed the security situation here. He got out of the elevator, half supporting, half leading Anne Hathaway and entered the restaurant. At noon in the middle of the night, Four Seasons Hotel VIP Restaurant and other guests. Abel noticed there were three tables in a restaurant of about two hundred square meters. Including his goal, there are four goals in total. He quickly discovered that the diners sitting at the table next to him were not diners at all. This was done by the rock's security staff, who may have posted a guard station to facilitate assistance in the restaurant. There are two other tables, one for one customer and the other for three customers. Seeing this scene, he nodded with satisfaction. Security work at this level is not in vain because they spend tens of millions of dollars on rock security every month. After sitting down, the bodyguard took out the restaurant menu. Abel ordered a bunch of meat and then gave the menu to Anne. "The milk pudding here looks so delicious in the picture. I remember you liked milk pudding the most. Would you like some?" » Abel asked gently. Anne Hathaway accepted it unconsciously. After Abel listened, his eyes fell on the photo of milk pudding on the restaurant menu. During the week, she loves to eat this dessert. "I still don't want to eat." She whispered. "I'll order a glass of lemonade." I just need to drink something to relieve my fatigue, Annie thought. Abel nodded, without thinking further, directly handed the menu to the bodyguard. Have personal bodyguards, send menus to the restaurant, then supervise their cooking. At that time, Annie's body felt sore and stiff, like fatigue after overwork. She is in a better mood. Coming from Los Angeles, I slept two hours in the car. Only at night I squint for about an hour. Now she felt sleepless and exhausted, she told Abel: "Honey, look what you said to Ovitz today, are you really buying Marvel?" Abel nodded and smiled. "Yesterday I went to San Francisco. I didn't let you come because yesterday I was negotiating with Marvel's Isaac Perlmutter." The negotiations lasted half an hour and the rest of the time was spent on other things. "As of noon today, 63% of Marvel's shares are owned by AB Smith Entertainment." "It was almost completely owned and it was basically declared that this company was going to be owned by me next." "Oh~" Based on her own abilities and IQ, Anne was accepted into New York University and not just among Hollywood's pure rednecks. Know and understand concepts such as relative detention, secure detention and absolute detention. "So is it true that you want to buy the rights to Spider-Man and X-Men?" Anne Hathaway asked curiously again. "Of course it's true." Abel smiled and reached out, picked up a few strands of sideburns that fell while speaking, then placed them back on his delicate white ears. This small action made Annie feel comfortable and she smiled friendly. "Do I really have a chance to play Mary Jane or Gwen? When I was little, my favorite superhero was Spider-Man! The woman I wanted to be the most was Mary Jane. But then I thought Gwen was quite good!" » Anne Hathaway happily said. "Then I will make your dream come true. Trust me. » Abel laughed. "Baby~ you're so sweet." Annie's mood is getting better and better. Even though her arms and legs ached and her waist was numb, she still couldn't help but want to rush forward and hug Abel's arm. Abel hugged her with one hand and caressed her soft waist with the other hand. It must be said that big horses are in good shape when young and at their best! He sighed inwardly. At this time, Abel suddenly noticed Edward next to him and leaned towards him. Right next to him, Lin and Johnson were also on his left, blocking his view in that direction. These extremely hidden movements of the bodyguards made Abel slightly startled. FXXK! he told him- Actually, it's not that unlucky. It's just that when you're hungry, you go out to eat late at night. Are you a victim of a shooting? (end of this chapter)
