Best Actor

Vol 2 Chapter 121: coming

    "Short the Dow Jones?!" Neil widened his eyes, then let out a long breath, reached out and rubbed his forehead, "You know what you're talking about , Sean?"

     "Of course, if something really happens, and it's as terrifying as in a dream, it will definitely affect the stock market, won't it?" Sean said indifferently .

    "If there were really explosions everywhere, people running everywhere, and plane crashes, then New York was definitely under attack," Neil spread out Hands, "Who are we at war with? China?"

    Hearing this sentence, Sean had the urge to cover his forehead, and quickly coughed: "I don't know, but I don't think this is War, maybe an accident?"

    After thinking for a moment, he finally gave up the rhetoric of a terrorist attack. people doubt. The reason why they pretend to be ghosts is because there are always these related records in history. For example, before the voyage of the Titanic, some people dreamed that the ship would sink, so they gave up boarding and survived, or more than 500 people died in Japan in the 1980s. It is also said that some people rushed to feel uncomfortable before boarding and abandoned the flight, thus surviving. Movies like "Death Is Coming" are inspired by these.

    Whether these claims are true or not, at least it gives people the impression that when a big change happens, someone will always panic, which gives Sean an excuse.

    People always seek advantages and avoid disadvantages. As I said before, it is necessary to do altruistic things without harming one's own interests. When it comes to yourself, you can only choose to save yourself. Likewise, when something lucrative is in front of you and it's almost within reach, why let it go?

    This is not a psychological burden either, he is neither making a fortune, nor making a fortune in the country, he just goes to the stock market and cashes out some of the inflowing hot money, without him Many other speculators, so why not? The big deal is to take one of the proceeds and donate it to charity. After all, he is just an ordinary person, and only has the moral standard of ordinary people.

    "Damn..." Neil rubbed his forehead again, "What about the time? Don't you want to say it's just two days?"

    "It should be in these few days, a week or so," Sean gave an uncertain time, "You just need a little more time in this week Help with stories and real-time news, and of course, don't go to New York and don't fly."

    "So you'd rather come back by private jet?" Neil asked, thinking of something.

    "Yes," Sean admitted without hesitation, "If you want to go back, you can take my private jet, I just rented one Gulfstream V for one year."

    The rental price of private jets is not expensive, only a few million a year, which Sean can afford.

    "It seems that I have no choice," Neil smiled wryly and spread his hands, "I can only accompany you crazy - how much principal are you going to take out? ?"

    "10 million, ten times leverage." Sean took a deep breath.

    "It's a big deal. It seems that "My Big Greek Wedding" has brought you quite a lot of money." Neil said half-jokingly.

    “Compared to those funds that can invest hundreds of millions at a time, these 10 million are just bits and pieces leaking from the fingertips,” Sean shrugged , "Or do you want me to put all my net worth into it?"

    “Forget it, I will be very uneasy with such a large amount of money in my hands,” Neil sighed and shook his head, “Last year’s I still remember things."

    "Okay, so be it," Sean didn't insist, "remember to keep it secret, including Galen and the others."

    It's not that he doesn't want to take out more principal. Although Sean insists on the character of "make a decision, you must work hard to the end", but he is gambling. It's not important, unless there is no way out, you won't do such a desperate thing. Second, it’s hard to explain if he invested too much. His current series of requirements are all based on that set of premonitions, which made Neil dubious at first, and he invested all his net worth.

    And third, Sean trusts Neil, but has doubts about his skills, as Neil himself said, last year's events It's still vivid in my mind. If it wasn't for his carelessness, Sean would have lost his underwear. Therefore, investing 10 million is enough. If I can make ten times the profit this time, I will be considered a billionaire.

    And the reason for hiding it from Galen and Sanders, except because this language is still too ridiculous in the eyes of ordinary people, even if Sean is optimistic and won There have been many successful scripts. It's also because Galen has a relatively more sense of justice. If he knows, although he won't fall out or anything, he will definitely not feel comfortable. Neil is different. As a person who grew up in a financial operation family, all kinds of changes in this area are his own business. As long as he can turn his hands into the clouds and turn his hands into the rain, the rest will not care so much. .

    As for Sanders, among the four of them, he and Galen have been together the longest, and it is easy to see something, so they just hide it together .

    In short, the less people know about this kind of thing, the better.

    Then, after the matter was settled, 911 came as scheduled, and Sean got up at 6:00 that morning, instead of going out for a run, he was at home After exercising a bit, and feeling a little uneasy, Sanders even teased him a few times.

    Fortunately, after 8 o'clock, Sanders rarely turned on the TV and watched the news for a while, Sean didn't have to do it himself to cause suspicion, and then listened quickly Here comes the news from the World Trade Center.

    "God, what's going on?" Galen and Sanders were shocked when they saw the smoke billowing from the Twin Towers on TV. Exhaled, and then quickly dialed the phone.

    Sean is no exception, first to the family, then to the women. In fact, he had called yesterday. His parents and sister were still in San Francisco, and he had no plans to go out today. Naomi was still in Los Angeles, Katie was still at her parents' house in Ohio, and Jordana had gone to Yale three days ago. Reports, basically not in New York, nor on the plane, and now call just to confirm.

    As for Frederick, don't worry, this guy sent a text message early this morning to arrange for him to meet with a lyricist who must be Los Angeles.

    "It's great, you'll be fine, it seems that all airports have been shut down urgently, so stay home for two days... um... well, I will I'll come back in time... I promise." Sean let out a long sigh after finishing the call with Lianna, it's basically fine, everyone is fine, look at the time, it's past 9 o'clock, on the TV, the second time The impact has already occurred.

    Sean is not sure if the attack has changed, but based on the current situation, the final outcome is not expected to change much.

    Then he called again: "Hey Neil, how are you?"

    "Everything is fine, don't worry." Neil took a deep breath from there. Obviously, he was shocked by today's news.

    "I'm in Boston, but I'll pay attention to everything."

    Sean didn't call him again. It's right to be cautious. When such a big thing happened, the security department will definitely monitor each call. If it leaks out Just a few words, it would be a big trouble.

    After that, the entire United States was in a state of panic on this day, all kinds of bad news came one after another, the Pentagon was hit, and the crash that flew to the White House , U.S. flights were banned, and so on, and the last live broadcast of the World Trade Center collapse made countless Americans cry.

    Sean is inevitably caught in a sense of absurdity, because… For him, this is all something that has already happened, history and reality have never strongly overlapped.

    However, after all, he has lived here for 20 years. Although he has never forgotten his past life, he has lived a good life in this life, so he quickly adjusted. What to do, like attending an evening prayer or being part of a Hollywood fundraiser over the next few days.

    Hollywood held a grand party, all the big and famous celebrities attended, gave speeches, cheered the people in front of the TV, and called everyone to be the victims Family members and the NYPD and Fire Department donated.

    Sean originally planned to donate 10 million in one go, but fortunately communicated with Frederick before that, and the agent quickly stopped this move.

    "Half is enough, otherwise it will be too showy, even if it is only half, it is still enough for you to attract attention, and the rest can be donated slowly. And today You donated, what about in the future? You donated 10 million today, and only 1 million or even less in the future. Even if someone understands, there will definitely be people who fall into the trap. .

    It's true to say that, you want to be in the limelight, but you can't be too showy, so Sean only took out 5 million from the remarks. Even so, it still attracts the attention of many people. You must know that even big names like George Clooney and Jim Carrey have only donated three or four million, and tens of millions are Speer. Berg's line of power figures.

    Although Sean has some names in Hollywood and is called a lucky boy, but donating 5 million at a time is still impressive.

    "I saw the tragic scene on TV and I was shocked, knowing that I was filming in New York a few days ago and browsing near the World Trade Center However, this is a huge injury to all of us, and I have to do something." Facing the reporter's body temperature, Sean said so righteously.

    Frederick was very qualified as an agent. After the announcement of the donation, he arranged for a reporter to interview. Enough to impress the public - it's amazing that the young actor who only became famous in 1999 donated 5 million, more than most actors.

    Of course, there must be some people who are unhappy, but now that the whole country is in the same hatred, the unhappiness can only be tolerated, not to mention, Sean has other action.
