Chapter 146

Chapter 146 The sky in New York looks completely different from last month. The sky was dark and sad, with low hanging clouds. . It looked as if they were about to fall from the sky and destroy every skyscraper in Manhattan. November 7. New York receives its first snow of the year. Many years ago, the first snowfall fell in New York. Normally this would only happen in late November or early December. There were a lot of them at the beginning of the year. Indeed, this year's climate is a typical "La Niña" phenomenon. La Niña and El Niño are two terms in climatology. . When El Niño occurs during the year, the global climate is significantly warmer that year. Overall, the world will experience a mild winter. It can be easily understood like this. The El Niño phenomenon is hot in the summer and hot in the winter. La Niña is another climate phenomenon. This means that the hotter the summer, the colder the winter will be. In general, after El Niño comes La Niña. It turns out that last year there was an El Niño phenomenon. The global climate is generally warmer this year, and the summer in New York is extremely hot. Now winter has come. . Nina is here. The hot summer in New York is followed by the bitter cold of early winter in New York. This year it will probably be much colder in New York than last year. This year in New York, the first snow of the season came very early. Queens, Smith Building. At the 4th floor office last night. Abel accompanied everyone in the company and never left the Smith Building. Although Abel has reason to pay more attention to this short-term investment of 10 billion US dollars. But in reality, he also wanted to practice Smith Capital. He wants to try it. . What situation can Smith Capital achieve when operating large funds. This will also make subsequent adjustments easier. In the future, questions about investment behavior will become more frequent and on a larger scale. This is the first project to turn the entire company into a financial paradise. This is rare on Wall Street. In other words, Smith Capital is still small and not in the tight environment of Wall Street. Has its own independent building with enough office space. do this. . If they are replaced by Goldman Sachs, they clearly will not be able to do that. At least they can't do it in an office building. Tens of thousands of employees were confined to their homes for days and nights, eating, drinking and playing together. On the other hand, after installing privacy stone. Abel also asked David Jones to invite the relevant service team. See you next time. All employees of Smith Capital, including David Mellon. . They will be in the Smith Building all the time. Eating, drinking, sleeping and working are inseparable. He also cannot communicate with the outside world. Chefs, doctors and even masseuses are present. They can enjoy these relaxing treatments without leaving the building. Outside the building, the newly expanded Rock Security posted more than 50 guards to surround the entire company. In addition to preventing outsiders from visiting, this also prevents people inside the building from leaving. . At the same time, Abel also contacted David Jones with the company's network service provider and other corresponding companies. Avoid sudden loss of network connection or sudden power outage during operation. It was a thought that he later recalled. . This also causes Abel to make a decision. After that time, the Smith building is expected to also be on the inside, designing its own generators and alternative routes to the network. Avoid physical harassment when making important financial transactions today. Exactly. talk about Wall Street. People can actually do things like unplug network cables! Because this was the first time this happened, Abel did not leave the company last night. He also spent the night in the Smith Building. When I woke up, I still hadn't showered. Abel stood right next to the window and saw the first snowflake falling from the sky. Abel, who has no writing skills, has an adjective for it: "astonishingly beautiful". He was in the office after taking a shower. After wearing prepared office attire. He then left the office and went out. At the secretary's office, Catherine and the other secretaries were not seen. This financial war basically does not require an administrative department of dozens of people from Smith Capital. They evacuated yesterday and temporarily returned to the Woolworth office. Handling and managing Smith Capital's external affairs. From the 4th floor, go down to the 3rd floor which is the company's trading floor. When Abel came down it was nine o'clock in the morning. He saw David Mellon holding a glass of water and a toothbrush. Foaming at the mouth, walking among the underground traders, brushing my teeth and admiring the market. Seeing this scene, Abel immediately relaxed a lot. I have to say that David Mellon was right to give a 2% dividend on dry stock. Not to mention his poor, white background in his early days on Wall Street, helping David Mellon create Smith Capital. In capital markets alone, David can help him a lot. Keeping an eye on the public like this, always pay attention to events in the global foreign exchange market. Abel feels he cannot do well. It consumes too much energy, time and requires a large store of related knowledge. In addition, David also had the status of Mellon, which also greatly helped his reputation on the East Coast. Having known each other for more than a year, the two have established a good relationship. Abel actually considered David his right-hand man. He took advantage of the fact that David's staff didn't pay attention to him or bother them, so he left quietly. As the boss, he doesn't need to go with them to keep quiet here. It's too boring. He just needs to come and observe from time to time and pay attention to the currency pair market anytime, anywhere. Depart from the Smith Building, after overcoming obstacles provided by the rock for safety. Abel's procession has reached Queen Street. "In the heart of Manhattan." In the back compartment of the luxurious black Rolls-Royce Phantom. Abel calmly ordered. The weather in New York today is snowy and windy, not suitable for helicopter flights. Abel wants to enter Manhattan, but he can only choose to enter by car. In such weather. If traveling by helicopter, the risk is very high. Don't take a helicopter, don't go into Manhattan or get stuck in traffic. In fact, it only takes about ten minutes to get there by helicopter. And also includes takeoff and landing times. And driving inside, even though there is not much traffic, it takes more than half an hour to go a few kilometers. Half an hour later. The motorcade arrives at 521 West 23rd Street in Midtown Manhattan. Number 521 is a ten-story building with seven apartments. This house was built in 1914 and has a history of more than 80 years. Many buildings in Manhattan are very old but they are still in use even in 2022 and are very expensive. This is the most expensive ancient building in the world. Abel has a two-story house here. Located on the top two floors, these are also the two most expensive floors. 6 bedrooms and 5.5 bathrooms, with an interior area of ​​approximately 7,820 square feet. HOA fees are $4,182 per month and property taxes are $8,489 per month. When he bought it last month, it cost nearly $23 million. It was a little more expensive than the eighteenth floor of the Carnegie Hill Building on Fifth Avenue, where he had previously lived with Anne Hathaway. Not to mention nothing else, just $12,000 a month in taxes and real estate fees. In this country, 99.9999% of the population cannot afford to live. The woman currently living here is Charlize Theron. Charlize came to New York this time not just to go with Abel. Before meeting Abel, his career was flourishing. After meeting Abel. I saw "Smith Girl" go crazy in Storm Smith not too long ago. Her popularity is increasing day by day and she has reached many levels in a short time. Although none of the works are famous or particularly noteworthy. But that was because of reputation and visibility. In just a short time, he received many invitations for cooperation and business activities. Before coming to Los Angeles, she was busy with that. This time I came to New York, I came here to place these orders. So those two days though Abel didn't spend much time with her during the day. She also has a busy life, meeting two or three famous people every day. Negotiating contracts and sampling, you could tell he was very busy. Like Abel's other mansions in Manhattan. Some Rock Security employees are also permanently stationed here. This allowed Abel to enter the house and join Charlize Theron without any problems. Charlize Theron didn't go out this morning. She only has one event in the afternoon, and in the evening she will attend a charity event of a certain luxury brand. Therefore, she is relatively free in the morning. This leads to Abel seeing her in the apartment and discovering that the future famous Hollywood camping queen is screaming and playing games in the cozy living room. Play PlayStation2, known as PS2. is the second generation 128-bit home console released by Sony this year. This is an improved version of PS with greatly improved functions. Basically, Abel owns a few mansions on this side of Manhattan. There is a PS2 console. That's how he kills time. Last time I had a great time with Jessica. "I didn't expect you to play this too?" Abel sat next to him and said, smiling. Charlize turned her face to the side, looked at him seductively and said: "I'm only 25 years old, I'm also a young man!" "And it's very cold outside today. There's snow and I feel fine in the morning so I don't want to go out." "Besides playing games here, what else can I do?" "Hahaha~" Abel smiled and walked straight towards the car's headlights. "Ah! Wait a minute, wait until I finish this!" " It's not good. You play your game, I play mine. » "Uh~~ yes." Charlize Theron, whose vital organs were being attacked, groaned softly. She raised her head and discovered that the bodyguard who had played games and read books with her in the living room was no longer there. There were only Abel and I left in the living room. She understood immediately that this morning she had to run away. "Huh~" she hummed arrogantly, wanting to put down the game controller, that was impossible, who said the boss wanted to eat her peaches? But this action was stopped by Abel. Abel told him to hold back the game console. "Continue play." "You play yours, I play mine. It would be better if we didn't interfere with each other." After hearing this, Charlize Theron immediately understood his intention. This guy She bit her lip and glanced at him. How not to interfere with each other? It hasn't even started yet and I can barely process it. But if you can't stand it, you have to wear it. Charlize Theron knows this guy just likes this person. She had no choice but to endure this growing feeling of alienation, comfort, and numbness. Keep playing the newest PS2 released this year. A few hours later. Charlize Theron had to pause her afternoon outing. Let's move the afternoon meeting to tomorrow. Because she knew that, in her current state. Meeting strangers is inappropriate and there is no way to do it officially. Instead, it's better not to force it. Rest well in the apartment, go out to do activities in the evening, and go out to meet tomorrow. After calling and informing, come here. She was limp and sore all over. Charlize was lying on the sofa with a soft wool blanket in her hand, squinting at Abel wearing a suit jacket with a happy expression. I looked at Abel full of energy and in great shape. Charlize was momentarily confused. Isn't it agreed that there are only plowed oxen and no plowed fields? Why does the cow seem healthy now? It seemed like he could still plow dozens of acres of land. My "field" felt like it was being bombarded by hundreds of millions of bombs. It cannot be restarted and is not far from being "broken". This isn't the first time Charlize Theron has doubted her life. It must be said. She always makes Abel happy. Later, she will secretly doubt such a life. This is why she even secretly consulted one of her personal doctors. The other party told him. Some men are very dominant in this regard. This is the type of person that is only one in ten thousand, maybe even one in a billion. At that time, the old driver and the female doctor had a saying: "If you meet him, cherish him." This expression makes Charlize suspicious if she mentions Abel's name. The other party will definitely deliver the goods to your home. Because the four-year-old female doctor is not very tall, her appearance is still beautiful. Still has beauty and capital. Literally delivered to your door, Charlize suspects Abel can't say no! This then caused Charlize to cut off all contact with this private female doctor. sniff! Plow my buffalo, do you want to use it, Bichi? How is it possible ! She hugged the blanket like this, covering most of her body, thinking wildly. But I saw Abel, who was dressed, walk towards him and kiss his face, which was still covered with sweat. Then I heard him say: "Rest well, in the afternoon I will return to Texas, I may have to stay there for a few days. Maybe I can't come here with you. Charlize seemed relieved and deliberately said: "I wish I could! If you were here every day I wouldn't have to go to work!" But actually, I heard that Abel won't be able to be with me for the next few days. Young Sai Huang was still a little reluctant. "If you say so then I'll take you away?! You can discuss your work with your brother!" Abel "threatened". Charlize fell in love within seconds. Because she thought. If you are truly alone and stay with Abel for a few days. She couldn't even imagine what it would feel like to be 'destroyed'. Sometimes you can tolerate it for a day or two at a time. Come morning and afternoon, or every day. She thought she could die young! "I am wrong." Charlize admitted: "Actually, I miss you so much. But you have to work, I have to work too. It's my fault that I couldn't go with you. I'm sorry~" "Haha~" Abel just smiled, then said: "Okay, then you don't have to go." "That's right. Someone will send you the optional private jet manual this afternoon." "You choose the decorations you like, then give them to the other party." Charlize: "????" What are the instructions for using a private jet? She didn't understand at all what Abel was saying. Abel explains: "I bought another Gulfstream G400. When it breaks down, it will be leased to CAA or MGM. But the right to use it belongs to me, Mr. President. And you, dear Mrs. Theron, I am willing to transfer this right .This is for your use. Share it with you. "Very simple." » Abel said bluntly. "After six months or a year, you'll have a brand new private jet at your disposal. And you won't have to spend money on its maintenance~" "You now have the power to decide on certain decorations on the plane as well as certain functional options." "Do you understand?" Abel made it very clear why Charlize might not understand. Her beautiful eyes opened wide and she couldn't believe that Abel actually "had" a private plane. Even if he only has control and use of it. But you don't have to lift it, what difference does giving it to you make? All of Hollywood, among the actors. Very few people can afford to buy a private plane! For a moment, Charlize Theron was extremely happy. The strong vanity of Hollywood women at that time made them extremely satisfied. Just like Jessica almost two months ago. Waiting for Charlize to wake up from her state of ultimate frivolous satisfaction. Abel left the apartment. Look at the empty living room and the clutter around it. and in the air. If so, there is a "seafood" smell that even a fresh air supply cannot quickly remove. Charlize lazily leaned her beautiful body on the sofa. She looked up at the bright ceiling of the chandelier above her head and was stunned. Charlize feels like she probably won't be able to live without Abel. Don't talk about contracts. Just being hardware-wise, I probably can't get away with it. She remembered the conversation she had with her mother that evening a month ago. This moment, She thought her mother was right. After all, women must have men, in the end they must give F to men. THEREFORE What is the purpose of a marriage contract and marriage certificate? This can ensure the purity of marriage and lasting love. Can you guarantee that you will grow old together? Sure is not. At least in the entertainment industry, Charlize Theron knows that perhaps less than 1% of couples are capable of growing old together. In this case Now I'm in this state. Now I look like this. It also looks pretty good. He is always arrogant and very self-controlled. When I signed the contract, I thought Charlize would leave after the contract expired. She can't stand Abel's sugar-coated balls. (end of this chapter)
