Hardy Empire 1945

Chapter 227: Selling Post-War Materials

Blink of an eye to March.

The annual Golden Globe Awards ceremony arrived, and Hardy attended with three women, Ava Gardner, Elizabeth Taylor and Heidi Lamar.

This year, both Elizabeth Taylor and Heidi Rama were nominated for films, and the killer was not too cold and ghostly, and both were nominated for best actress.

There are many good films this year, and the competition is fierce. In the end, Elizabeth Taylor won the Golden Globe Award for Best Actress for her wonderful performance in This Killer Is Not Too Cold.

The little girl held the trophy and kissed excitedly. This was the first award in her life.

As for the two films of HD Pictures, they also won several awards one after another. After the party, Hardy sent Taylor back.

Two hundred meters away from Taylor's house, Taylor asked Hardy to stop the car on the side of the road, and the bodyguard car that followed Hardy also stopped far away.

As soon as Hardy stopped, Tyler jumped on Hardy and kissed him fiercely.

In the end, Hardy had a feeling.

Hoo~!

The two finally separated, Taylor breathed slightly, and looked at Hardy with a pair of big purple eyes: This is the first award in my life, I'm so excited, and thank you Hardy.

It's your own effort. Hardy said with a smile.

No, you taught me well. I have learned a lot of acting knowledge this year, and I have watched more other people's performances. I found that my previous performances were really far from good. If you hadn't taught me how to enter Mathil For this role, I definitely won't get this award. Taylor said.

You only need to have this understanding. Only by knowing your shortcomings can you improve. I believe you will win the Academy Award in the future. Hardy said.

That means I don't have a chance this time? Taylor asked.

This girl is really smart, and she immediately grasped the point of Hardy's words.

There is a nomination.

Taylor was slightly disappointed, but immediately lost his emotions and said with a smile, It's hard to get an Oscar nomination.

After he finished speaking, he looked at Hardy and said softly, Hadi, I want a reward.

What reward do you want?

Tyler closed his eyes again.

Hardy kissed him knowingly.

During the intense entanglement, Hardy reached out his hand subconsciously, and Taylor's body trembled, but his response was even more intense.

Taylor's parents also attended tonight's Golden Globes party,

It was a ticket for their daughter Tohadi's relationship. At the end of the party, the two went out for a drink with their friends. When the husband and wife drove back, the headlights shone on a car parked on the side of the road.

Beverly is a high-end residential area, with wide roads, almost no parking on both sides, and a car parked on the side of the road is very conspicuous.

Hey, isn't that Mr. Hardy's car? Isa asked in surprise when she saw the license plate number.

Immediately after the headlights shone into the car, a man and a woman were kissing. Isa knew who it was immediately after guessing. The car stopped in her own courtyard in a blink of an eye. Isa glanced at the car under the streetlights a few hundred meters away.

Then walk into the villa.

The daughter has grown up and she has her life.

When she was as old as her daughter, she also had a boyfriend and knew about things between men and women, not to mention that the man was Mr. Hardy.

After waiting for another half an hour, Taylor finally came home and walked in happily with the Golden Globe trophy in his hand. Isa saw that her daughter's lipstick had already been spent, and she naturally knew what happened.

Another 10 days have passed.

The annual Academy Awards ceremony begins.

This Oscars ceremony, ABC TV purchased the copyright and prepared to broadcast live in the United States. Countless celebrities attended the ceremony, and Irina became one of the hosts.

Hardy once again took a few girls to participate.

HD Pictures has gained a lot this time. The two films have won a total of 12 nominations. Taylor won the nomination for This Killer Is Not Too Cold, and Heidi Rama won the best performance for her wonderful performance in The Ghosts. Actress Award, after being sealed.

Heidi Rama's eyes were red when he came to the stage to accept the award, I am most grateful to Mr. Hardy, he is the one who came up with the story of ghosts, he made me play this role, and he is also the theme song of the movie. Written, I would say, Mr Hardy is the most talented person I have ever met.

Wow wow~~!

There was applause at the scene.

Subsequent awards, The Killer Isn't Too Cold and Ghost Love also won several awards, including the Best Director Award, the Best Editing Award, the Best Original Story, and the Best Original Song Award.

Hardy took the stage to accept the award. He just walked on the stage and did not speak, and there was warm applause from the audience.

Now he is the boss of the Hardy Group, with assets of hundreds of millions of dollars, a proper tycoon, the boss of a TV station and film company, and the chairman of the Actors Guild who controls the real power in Hollywood.

After Hardy became the chairman of the labor union, he made some practical changes, such as rectifying small brokerage companies, making the air of Hollywood purer, making Hollywood have a better ecology, and helping many actors solve problems related to their vital interests.

Mayer sat off the stage and looked at Hardy on stage, and sighed in his heart. Now Hardy's influence in Hollywood has a tendency to surpass him.

He has only been here for over a year.

He has worked hard for decades.

Hardy took the trophy, and the audience burst into applause again. Hardy stood in front of the podium, put the trophy next to him, smiled and looked at the stars in the audience and said, I won the award, should I give an acceptance speech?

Someone in the audience chuckled and applauded again.

Forget the acceptance speech, that song was just made out of sudden inspiration. It's luck that everyone likes that song.

This sentence is very Versailles.

If you want me to say a few words, then I will tell you some of my thoughts. Movies are the seventh art, and this art is an art produced by integrating many resources, actors, directors, screenwriters, lighting, props, and even stand-ins. Actors, group performances.

Everyone has worked hard for this work of art. While we care about the actors, we should also care about those who are silently giving away. The flower of art blooms more brilliantly.

Wow wow wow wow~~!

There was warm applause from the audience.

At the cocktail party after the awards party, Heidi Rama drank a lot. Today, she fulfilled the biggest long-cherished wish in her life, and she swayed with Hardy's arm when she left.

Sitting in the car, Heidi Rama held Hadi's arm and looked at Hadi with beautiful eyes, Send me back, please, I'm so happy tonight I don't want to sleep alone.

When they came to Heidi Rama's house, the two spun into the house, their clothes scattered all the way, and they fought fiercely on the sofa.

a long time.

Heidi Rama put her arms around the man, her eyes full of admiration.

Thank you Hardy.

After the matter in hand was settled, Hardy took out a plan, The Hardy Group plans to establish a national logistics company and a warehouse-type supermarket.

This is an industry he has long been interested in and is ready to start.

It is not easy to establish a logistics company and a supermarket. It requires a lot of money to buy land, build a logistics center, and build a large supermarket. It also requires a large number of manpower and a large number of vehicles.

Others can be done by his subordinates. As for manpower, Hardy immediately thinks of Major General Williams. He is responsible for the placement of veterans. Every year, there are retired soldiers and officers. These people are his headaches, but they are what Hardy needs most. .

Picked up the phone and called Major General Williams. The phone rang a few times and connected. It was Major General Williams' office secretary. Hardy reported his name. After a while, Major General Williams took the phone and answered.

Hadi, you haven't contacted me for a long time. Major General Williams said with a smile. The two are now real friends and speak very casually.

I know the general has been very busy recently. Hardy said with a smile.

It turned the problem onto me, well, I'm really busy recently. I'm busy selling things every day, and I'm about to become a grocery store owner. Major General Williams said helplessly.

By the way, Hardy, what's the matter with you calling me?

I plan to build a logistics company recently. The logistics company needs a lot of manpower. I'm also planning to build a national supermarket chain, which also needs a lot of manpower. So I came to you to ask for someone. I estimate that two or three thousand veterans will be needed this year. Hardy road.

This is good news for me. It has solved a lot of troubles in the placement of veterans. I would also like to thank you Hardy. Don't worry, you can give as much as you want, and the best will be left to you. Major General Williams said.

You just said that you became the owner of a grocery store selling things, what's the matter? Hardy asked casually after finishing the business.

Major General Williams complained, At the beginning, for the war, a large number of aircraft, tanks, ships, guns, and various combat materials were produced in China. Now that the war is over, a large number of materials are piled up in warehouses and the Gobi Desert, just like you The same planes I bought last time.

Yours are still good and can be sold. Now these are more things that are not easy to sell. Even if those aircraft, tanks and warships are left alone, annual maintenance is an astronomical expense.

Recently, the government has made a decision to get rid of them, and then create a 'war property administration' and let me be in charge of this department. Do you know how many of these things there are? There are tens of thousands of types. Distributed in 181 warehouse bases around the world.

I can deal with some good ones, such as transport planes and cars. These are really in demand, but who would want tanks? Who would want fighter jets? What about warships parked in ports?

I'm in the process of contacting other countries to see if Argentina, Mexico, Peru, and Chile are interested in buying warships. Maybe they can sell one or two ships. If they can't be sold, they will have to dismantle and sell scrap iron in the end.

Hardy knows that the U.S. military is rich and powerful. Half of the largest manufacturers in the United States rely on the U.S. military to make their fortune. They make money by selling to the U.S. military. We can make money by selling things for the U.S. military. This is definitely a lot of business. .

Hardy saw business opportunities and smelled money, Major General Williams, I'm about to set up a sales team, maybe I can help you sell these things.

Oh, what are your thoughts?

I think the best way to sell things is to find a professional team. It takes a lot of energy for you to contact other countries and do international trade. Other businesses can be outsourced, and you don't have to do it yourself. When the time comes, come up with a solution and you are responsible for making the final decisions. That's it, it solves the problem and is very easy, Hardy said.

Well, it's a good idea, Hardy, why don't you come to my side, let's have a good talk. Major General Williams said.

Okay, I'll go over now. Hardy said.
