The schedule for next year is full. , This project does not need to be too anxious, nor can it be anxious."

"..."

"Rupert, I thought of one thing when I saw you. We should take the time to talk about the political position of the FOX TV network... Yes, it seems that you already understand what I mean. You stand on the side of the Republican Party. , I stand on the side of the Democratic Party. As long as we cooperate properly, it will be good for both of us...

Steve, the traffic of the AOL portal needs you to fight for it through content and services. Moreover, I must remind you again that online services can only be AOL. You must focus on the ISP business."

"..."

"I did absorb a large number of shares of Freddie Mac and Fannie Mae. The two companies have credit guarantees from the federal government and exclusive franchise licenses in the US housing loan market. They are completely monopolistic. Now the real estate industry is recovering again. This is the best opportunity to buy. Westeros holds 4.9% of the shares in the two companies, and the total investment is 1.2 billion US dollars. It has risen to 1.5 billion US dollars... I borrowed this money, but , Just the current book profit is enough to pay the interest for the next three years, it’s very cost-effective, isn’t it... Of course I don’t want to be targeted by the SEC, Fink, so I will still submit shareholding materials to the board of directors of the two companies. If Black Rock intends to increase its holdings, I can postpone this... Yes, holding it for a long time, I promise that it will not affect your operations for at least five years."

"..."

"I'm sorry, Steve, although I hold 20% of ESPN's shares, I still can't support your plan to buy out the broadcasting rights of the National Football League.

"..."

"Yes, I didn't expect the'Information Age' big marketing plan to be so successful. This can only show once again that a new era is coming. However, Raymond, you don't need to envy you at all. Verizon is currently focusing on development The future industrial scale of China’s mobile communications business will not be much worse than that of the Internet. As long as the Clinton Administration’s Telecommunications Act is promulgated, Verizon will be able to execute its next expansion plan."

"..."

"Hello, Paris, Nikki, you guys look like twins... Why would I know that you are not twins, uh, it’s not good for the little girl to be so tricky, learn from your sister, how cute... Then, Miss Hilton How about a dance together?"

When the Spoorts and Levison met Simon in the lobby of the villa again, the man had just left the dance floor, holding a blushing little girl in his hand.

This is Nikki, the second daughter of the Hilton couple.

In fact, the little girl is only 11 years old, she has already begun to draw a stripe, and she has a slim appearance. She was brought over by her parents in violation of the 12-year-old rule on the invitation letter, but no one will pursue this.

In fact, many children who came with their parents tonight are like this.

He politely returned the girl to the Hilton couple standing next to the dance floor. After chatting for a few more words, Simon nodded to the Hilton family when he saw the Spoort family approaching. On the other side, the younger sister took advantage of Parrie. Si turned and left with disappointed eyes.

Even the communication is accompanied by endless enjoyment of wine and food, as well as entertainment programs such as music and dance magic, and the New Year's Eve party starting at 7 o'clock. The time flies by everyone on the scene, and it is already more than 11 o'clock in the blink of an eye. bell.

In more than half an hour, the New Year's bell will ring.

The party will definitely end after the New Year's bell, which is why the Levisons eagerly want to catch up with Simon Westeros, otherwise there may be no chance. After several hours of communication, the Levisons have already known many of the core members of the Westeros system. However, in order to get the Levison Group out of the predicament, after all, Simon himself must decide himself.

He took a glass of red wine from the passing waiter's tray. When everyone came to the front, Simon asked, "Are you happy tonight?"

"Of course, this party is really great," Francis Levison rushed to answer, and added: "Simon, can we talk alone?"

Simon smiled and pointed to the corridor on the east side of the hall: "Let's go over there."

Turning around and heading to the corridor first, the Levisons quickly followed, and the Graces hesitated slightly, but stopped.

Coming to the small living room on the east side of the villa that can lead to the backyard lawn, I found that Robert Iger and his wife and several senior executives from the East Coast TV department were here, as well as the Kardashian family that Simon remembers very well.

Everyone greeted him again, without Simon mentioning it. Iger, who realized that a few people had something to talk about, took the initiative to take the others away and let the living room out.

Instructed the Levisons to sit down at will, and Simon himself was sitting on a single sofa.

I have drunk a lot of wine tonight. I am somewhat drunk at this moment. I am holding the red wine crookedly in my hand. My body seems a little crooked. I can see Levison sitting on the corner of the couch nearest to me. The lady's mature body wrapped in a black evening dress.

Simon likes to hunt for sex, but he is unobtrusive. He believes that twisted melons are not sweet, and usually only after confirming a woman's willingness to make a shot.

Therefore, it was just a simple glance, quickly retracted his gaze, sat up straight and looked at Francis Levison, but motioned the other party to speak first.

What kind of man Simon Westero is, the Levisons have all heard of it, but at this moment, Francis Levison, who is asking for others, can only look at his wife when a young man looks at him. Turn a blind eye.

On the contrary, Mrs. Levison, Bryce Levison, put her legs together without a trace, and glanced over either intentionally or unintentionally.

A woman is a person who pleases herself.

Being able to attract the interest of this very young and extremely wealthy super tycoon will inevitably make Bryce Levison some vanity.

Francis Levison had previously contacted James Rebald and several heads of Cersei Capital, so he realized that the Westeros system may have paid attention to the Levison Group.

After receiving Simon’s hint, Levison sorted his thoughts and took the initiative to speak: “Mr. Westeros, I think you should already know my family company. If possible, I hope the Westeros system can Levison Group injects capital. My requirements are not high, only 500 million US dollars, I guarantee you will get enough returns."

Simon took a sip of the cool red wine, but his thoughts became clearer.

This is a New Year's Eve party. It was originally not an occasion to talk about things. However, after only a few hours of communication, many work topics were discussed unconsciously.

On weekdays, there are not many opportunities for people to communicate with Simon face to face, which is inevitable.

Hearing Levison’s apparently ambiguous offer, Simon’s original inconvenience diminished a lot, and he shook his head slightly and said, “Frank, if it’s just a $500 million small business, take the time to talk to Jim and the others. Now it’s a party. time."

Francis Levison was also a little embarrassed when he heard this.

The main problem facing the Levison Group is that investors lack confidence in the company. Everyone can see that the real estate market has begun to recover, but no one knows how long this pre-dawn darkness will last, and the capital chain Can the tight Levison Group survive until dawn?

If it doesn't last that day, the result will be a domino collapse.

Francis Levison wants to reach cooperation with Simon. The most important point is that the participation of the Westeros system can bring key market confidence to the Levison Group. Therefore, let alone 500 million US dollars, even if Simon only Investing 100 million US dollars in the Levison Group, and the news spread, the creditors of this company will immediately stabilize, and it will be much easier to refinance.

Unfortunately, there is obviously no such simple good thing in this world.

After hesitating for a while, Francis Levison finally said: "Mr. Westeros, 700 million dollars, you can get 10% of the Levison Group, is that okay?"

Just now Francis Levison did not say whether the specific attribution of the $500 million was equity or debt.

Now it is a step further.

Simon shook his head again without hesitation: "Frank, I think you are playing tricks on me."

With that said, Simon stood up and said, "That's it, you can contact Jim and the others after you think it over."

Simon got up, and the Levisons stood up immediately.

Francis Levison also understands that his offer just now lacks sincerity. He just wants to keep enough chips to bargain, but he doesn't want the young people in front of him to want to bargain with him.

Seeing Simon raised his foot and walked out, Francis Levison suddenly regretted his procrastination and was about to catch up. His wife had already subconsciously stepped forward and took a young man's arm: "Simon, let's talk about it again. Can you talk about it?"

He said that, seeming to be too eager, Bryce Levison moved on, her whole body seemed to be wrapped around the man's arm.

Everyone paused immediately, realizing that their actions were not appropriate, Bryce Levison subconsciously wanted to let go, and finally held back it, until it was confirmed that the man did not want to go outside, and then slowly let go of the other party. Arm, step back and stand beside her husband, trying to let herself gently tidy up the hem of the evening dress.

Simon did not go back and sit down, but said: "I don't like people who are too procrastinated, Frank, since you are not sincere, I offer my price, 1.5 billion US dollars, 30% of the Levison Group. "

Francis Levison, who was still concerned about his wife's actions, subconsciously said, "This is impossible."

The Levison family only holds 15% of the Levison Group. Because there is no multiple ownership structure, in the past it only relied on the support of several other important shareholders to firmly control the company. If 30% is sold to Simon Westeros, it is tantamount to directly relinquishing control of his company.

What's more, the $1.5 billion purchase of 30% of the shares in Levison Group is too low.

You should know that although the fixed assets assessed by the industry are only 7 billion US dollars and the debt ratio reaches 75%, the assets of the Levison Group are very high-quality, there are no unfinished projects, no garbage land, as long as the federal real estate industry recovers, and With sufficient operating funds to revitalize existing properties and develop storage plots, it is not impossible for these assets to increase in value by more than double in the next few years.

At that time, it will be 15 billion US dollars.

The current liabilities of US$5.3 billion will no longer be too serious a burden compared to the total assets after appreciation in the future.

Simon did not bargain with Levison any more, but said: "I understand your general idea, Frank, I also know the current situation of the Levison Group very well. 1.5 billion US dollars, 30% of the shares, this is for me A very sincere quotation. Because after the conclusion of this transaction, the Levison Group will not only obtain sufficient funds, but will also become a member of the Westeros system. Backed by the Westeros system, this company will be Not only can you go out of Florida, you may even have the opportunity to develop into a global real estate development giant. This is the most fundamental value of this transaction. You have one night to discuss with the other shareholders of the Levison Group. At nine o'clock tomorrow morning, Give me an answer, either close the deal or give up."

Simon finished speaking, this time without waiting for Mrs. Levison to stop him, he turned and left the living room.

When I came to the corridor, I raised my wrist and looked at my watch. There are still more than 20 minutes before twelve o'clock in the morning. The new year is coming soon.

Greeting to the oncoming guests, he happened to meet his personal military assistant Celia Miller and his wife. Simon stopped each other, but nodded to Philip Miller and said to Celia: "Come here tomorrow morning. Now, I have a special task to give you."

Tomorrow is January 1, New Year's Day, or Sunday.

No matter how you look at it, it's a rest day.

Celia keenly noticed the man's intoxication, did not refute, nodded, and asked thoughtfully: "Simon, do you want me to help you go upstairs to rest?"

Simon shook his head and refused, and walked towards the hall alone.

Not long ago, Janet hid upstairs to rest because she was a little tired, saying that she would come down again at twelve o'clock, and she should go down now. The New Year's kiss must not be missed.
