America's Road to Fame

Chapter 21 The Dust Settles
After another night of gunfire, Paris cried at the end last night that he wanted to go back to the hotel, and then fell asleep crying.

William Chen looked at Paris on the bed, still sleeping soundly. The quality of this sleep was really good. Every time William Chen woke up in the morning, she could always sleep soundly, even when he let her hold her arm, It didn't affect her sleep at all.

After taking a shower, William Chen changed into sportswear and started today's morning run.As he was jogging along Fifth Avenue towards Central Park, he suddenly heard someone calling him.

Turning his head, William Chen saw that it was Ivanta. She was wearing a tight gray sportswear, which revealed her curvy figure.At this time, she was walking out of the headquarters building and trotting towards William Chen.

"Morning, William, are you going for a morning run?" Ivanta had a sweet smile on her face, and the sweetness in her voice was a bit too sweet.

"Yes, Ivanta, you are going to run too." From her attire, William Chen naturally saw that she was going to exercise.

"Yes, I saw a report about your morning jog in the newspaper before, and I was still thinking that we live so close, why haven't I met you before, I didn't expect to meet you today."

Ivanta walked side by side with him, turned to look at William Chen, and said with a smile.Her height is about 180. If she doesn't wear high heels, she is about five centimeters shorter than William Chen. At this time, the two of them walk together, which is very commensurate.

"Maybe it's because the time was staggered before, and maybe our running routes are different. Otherwise, if there are beautiful women running together, I will definitely be able to run more laps every day."

"Then let's go together today. I'll follow your route and see your usual running route."

The group building is very close to Central Park. From the entrance of the building, you can see the southeast corner of the park. The two of them walked into the park while talking.

It can be seen that Ivanta should also be a frequent runner. Usually, William Chen’s route is a morning jog around the soft cinder road next to the Jacqueline Kennedy Onassis Reservoir in Central Park. The lap is about 2.5 kilometers Left and right, after running two laps, he looked at Ivanta, who still didn't seem to feel tired, so after asking, the two decided to run another lap.

In fact, morning running does not need to pursue speed too much. The main thing is to exercise the whole body. Movement is very important. Otherwise, it will damage the knees after a long time.After running, the two of them walked back slowly while talking.

"I feel like I ran a little more today than usual. It seems that I haven't met you before. It turns out that our routes are different. I used to run on the road outside the park. Today I feel that the scenery of your route is really good. In the future I decided to switch to this route as well.”

Ivanta smiled and said, "By the way, William, do you usually run at this time?"

"Almost, I wake up more regularly, usually a little after six o'clock."

"That's really envious of you, because I don't usually have such a regular schedule. Sometimes when I'm busy, I have to work late at night, so I can't say that I can run every day, but whenever I have the opportunity, I will go out for a few laps." Yes. If we run again in the future, if the time is right, we can run together."

At this time, although the temperature in the morning will be slightly cooler, Ivanta is still dripping with sweat after running, so she takes out a small handkerchief from her pocket, wipes the sweat from her face, and talks to Chen William talking.

"That's great. If someone runs with me, I won't be so boring that I need to listen to music at the same time. Especially for a beautiful woman like you, I wish for it."

"By the way, William, I remember you said last time that you fell in love with a newspaper and wanted to buy it." Ivanta suddenly asked this question, and she asked with some hesitation: "I asked you last time and kept it secret." , that newspaper won't be the New York Observer?"

When Ivanta talked about this matter, William Chen already knew it, he nodded, and asked with a look of surprise: "Yes, how did you know, has this matter been leaked now? "

"Really, it's not that I heard about your acquisition, it's just..." She hesitated for a moment before saying:

"It's just that I heard from Garret yesterday that he was in contact with the owner of the newspaper and was planning to buy it. It suddenly occurred to me that you also said that you wanted to buy the newspaper before, so I asked you today when I had the opportunity."

After finishing speaking, Ivanta glanced at Chen William, sighed, and said, "I didn't expect that you all took a fancy to this newspaper, then you will become competitors again."

"It's quite interesting. First it was Building 666, and now it's the New York Observer. It seems that Garrad and I have similar visions in many things."

Hearing William Chen's words, Ivanta didn't know what to think of, her face blushed, and she heard William Chen continue to say:

"Ivanta, it's not that I deliberately opposed him, it's just that you know, whether it's Building 666 or the "New York Observer", I was the first, and he wanted to intervene. Competing."

"I understand, William. After all, you told me about this a long time ago. In fact, you are all my friends. I really don't want you to compete like this." Ivanta also said in a low voice with a helpless look on her face.

"This kind of thing is often inevitable. I believe that as long as everyone is in a legitimate competition, no matter what the final result is, no personal grievances will be involved. This is also my principle. You can rest assured, Ivanta , even if the final result is that Garrett wins the competition, as long as he wins within the rules, I will still congratulate him and have no complaints against him."

Hearing what he said, Ivanta looked at Chen William with admiration, and said happily: "It's really good of you to think so, William, you are such a gentleman, and I am very glad to be your friend. "

"Me too. Compared with other things, what I value more is the relationship between people. I believe this is the most precious thing." William Chen took advantage of the trend to get a wave of goodwill, and he was still very satisfied with what he just said appeared.

Both Ivanta and Chen William are well-known in the United States, and many street photographers will take the initiative to shoot them when they see them.

And when the two of them walked from Central Park to Fifth Avenue together, they naturally attracted the attention of the reporters waiting there. The flashing lights flashed one after another, and those reporters consumed the film indifferently. Only two or three reporters , Even for a while, it set off the atmosphere of walking the red carpet.

"William, Ivanta, you run together in the morning together, are you dating?"

"Ivanta, did you live with William last night?"

"William, you were photographed with Paris before, and now you are running with Ivanta, do you have a new love again?"

……

With the flash comes, it is a problem.William Chen waved his hands to the reporters and said, "I'll only answer once. I have a good relationship with Ivanta and Paris. I met Ivanta by chance this morning, so we went for a morning run together. Okay. That's it, this is the end of the matter, we are going home, please don't follow me, thank you."

After answering these questions, William Chen walked forward with Ivanta, ignoring the questions that were thrown by the reporters.

"These are reporters from some tabloids. I guess they won't know how to write news when they go back." Ivanta said helplessly.

"I'm sorry, Ivanta, maybe our scandal will spread again. I will make a statement in the media, so that they won't write scribbles and cause others to misunderstand." William Chen said to her seriously.

Ivanta is very open-minded, just smiling...

"Haha, what I'm afraid of is that before that, I will be blocked and beaten up by your admirers." Seeing that Ivanta's attitude is not bad, Chen William also joked to her.

Soon, they walked to the door of the group headquarters building. Ivanta said goodbye to William Chen, shook his mobile phone at him, and said, "Contact again, William, and make an appointment for a run together next time."

……

After Nelson reported Chen William's final offer to Robert De Niro, they are also waiting for the other party's reaction, not only whether Robert De Niro will finally accept the offer, but also whether Garrett will accept it. There will be new quotations, and William Chen has corresponding countermeasures.

At present, his quotation is 700 million US dollars plus assuming 300 million newspaper debts, so the total expenditure is 1000 million US dollars, which is already the same as the expenditure when Garrett acquired the "New York Observer" in his previous life.

Another thing to consider is that when Garrett purchased the newspaper in his previous life, although there was an annual loss of nearly 200 million U.S. dollars, the overall situation of the newspaper office was much better than it is now. Well kept.

But now, after Robert De Niro's tossing, the newspaper's situation is worse than in previous lives.So in this case, is Garrett willing to increase the price and pay a greater price to get this newspaper?Regarding this point, William Chen was not sure either. After all, there was already a scandal about him and Ivanta running in the morning together in today's newspaper. Maybe the other party would make an impulsive decision because of this stimulation.

As a result, William Chen's worry did not happen. Two days later, Nelson informed him that Robert De Niro decided to accept William Chen's final offer after consideration.

That is to say, William Chen can sign a transfer contract with him after paying 1000 million US dollars and become the new owner of the New York Observer.
