Suddenly leaving his busy work and coming here, Simon's first feeling was not comfort, but anxiety, a strong sense of loss of control.Fortunately, Simon has a special experience that is different from anyone in this world, which is equivalent to the accumulation of more than ten periods of life, which made him adapt quickly.

The female assistant can switch freely between a strong woman in the workplace and a woman at home.

When I came here, I only brought a few books and a picture folder.

During the day, I asked Simon to teach me how to draw, and I skated on the frozen lake in front of the hut, wearing a very girly white down jacket, looking like an elf.

Snuggle together by the fireplace at night, and read to Simon in an elegant voice, Proust's "Remembrance of Things Past", a very thick volume.

Or Yeats' poetry.

……

I'm going to get up and go, to Innisfree.

Build a hut with soil and sticks.

I want nine rows of cloud bean racks and a bee nest.

Listen to the bees singing in the forest, and live alone in a secluded place.

Then I will have peace.

……

After reading it, I also suggested whether to give the small lake in front of me a name, or call it Lake Innisfree.

Simon refuses.

In the rare expression of resentment made by the female assistant, it should be called Jenny Lake.

The female assistant's resentment did not dissipate, and she asked which Jenny.

Simon firmly said that of course it was Jenny in front of him.

I also brought an original Chinese version of "Dream of Red Mansions".

Janet never forgot that joking female assistant back then. She wanted to know the story about the attacker and asked Simon to tell her in person.

Then I fell in love with listening to the romance, joys and sorrows in the Grand View Garden.

Even if strong curiosity flashed in his eyes occasionally, he never asked Simon why he knew such a difficult and obscure language.

Just keep asking all kinds of questions.

I also worked hard to learn to recite a poem in the book.

There is no fixed pronunciation, but a standard accent.

full of nonsense,

A handful of bitter tears.

All say that the author is crazy,

Who knows what it means.

Finally, I couldn't help it, and asked Simon casually, is there really a three-life stone?

Simon said no.

Just a story.

Obviously dissatisfied with the answer, the corners of his mouth curled up again.

After Simon comforted him, his emotions disappeared.

Satisfied with Xiren's ending, she threatened that if one day Simon didn't like her, she would find a good man to marry.

When he said this, he looked at Simon with threats.

Dare to threaten.

So he was severely 'cleaned up'.

Submissive every time.

Found out a few things, sued Janet for a lot of the dirty little details that she told her, and it didn't turn out to be there.

Simon smiled and said that this can be done.

then.

There really is.

Calm down, and continue to read that "Remembering Things Past" to Simon.

Simon has been listening patiently. Inadvertently, he wrote down what he heard on the blank page of the Dream of Red Mansions book in his hand: Always strive to keep a piece of sky outside your life.

Smelling the aroma of food, he lazily opened his eyes.

This is the bedroom, naturally there is no food around, just the sticky smell from the man who came in from the kitchen.

Still couldn't help but twitched his little nose, but lazily refused to move.

The room was very warm, and Simon was only wearing a woolen sweater and khaki trousers. Seeing her open her eyes, Simon leaned over to kiss her.

Turning his head away: "I haven't brushed my teeth yet."

Simon didn't let her go, kissed her freshly awakened cheek, and leaned over to her fair neck. Still not satisfied, he pulled down the quilt a little, and leaned over again.

Under the quilt is a perfect body that can drive a man crazy.

Not an inch.

Nephrite jade is warm and fragrant.

Feeling that Simon bit it greedily, he finally reached out and pushed the man's head weakly, and said with a smile, "It's so itchy."

Simon raised his head, but stretched his hand in, and said, "Get up now, or should I sleep with you for a while?"

Hold down the man's strange hand: "I want to get up, you go out first."

"I'll help you get dressed."

"No, I will wear it myself."

"This is not possible, we must help."

As he spoke, he moved amidst the female assistant's coquettish laughter, and finally the two of them redressed together.

Breakfast also had to be redone.

It was already cold.

After eating, it was already ten o'clock in the morning.

The time was July 7th, and I stayed here for a full week. Although only Janet would occasionally make one or two harassing calls, it would be hard to justify staying here.

Very sunny day.

After packing up her luggage and standing outside the house, the female assistant was obviously reluctant to part with her, and was worried that her hut would be destroyed and occupied by outsiders. She didn't feel relieved until Simon promised to arrange special caregivers.

Taking advantage of the sun at noon, I boarded a helicopter parked nearby.

The helicopter roared into the sky, and the small lake became smaller and smaller in the field of vision, just like the long-term memory that everyone will gradually fade and dissipate deep in his heart.

The rented Bell helicopter did not have enough battery life, so I had to take a boat back to Melbourne on the northern coast of Tasmania, and returned to the villa outside Melbourne, it was already past four o'clock in the afternoon.

I made some calls to people close to me. I planned to rest for another night and start working tomorrow. Anthony Johnston called and asked Simon to go to the mansion to attend a party. It turned out that today happened to be Norman Johnston’s birthday , the family will be there.

Taking Jennifer to live outside for a week, Simon didn't believe that the Johnston family would not know, and he was a little guilty and didn't refuse.

The more guilty female assistant dared not go there together.

Came to the mansion in the evening.

Many people were invited to the party and it was very lively.

Except for Patrick Johnston winking at Simon, no one reacted too particularly to Simon's whereabouts in the past week.

The entertainment lasted until late at night, and when all the guests left, Simon originally wanted to leave, but the old man stayed behind. Although the meaning in the words was that there is no place for you to live at home, Simon understood that the old man still treats him As for the previous week, there are opinions.

Nature can only stay.

When you return to Melbourne, you can’t sleep late and wake up on time at seven o’clock the next day.

Leaving the bedroom, crossing the corridor and going to the stairs, passing a room, Veronica Johnston happened to open the door and walk out. When she saw Simon, she froze immediately, and raised her hand subconsciously, but she was very nervous. put it down.

Simon also stopped and frowned when he saw Veronica's subconscious defensive action.

Seeing Simon frowning, Veronica raised her hand a little uneasy, as if she wanted to explain, but she just mumbled out the word "I..." and couldn't continue.

Seeing that she stopped talking, Simon continued to walk towards the stairs.

Veronica stared blankly at Simon's figure disappearing at the stairs before walking out of the room.

After breakfast, Simon and Anthony Johnston rushed to the headquarters of Johnston Holdings in downtown Melbourne.

After the operation targeting the Japanese market last year, although the headquarters of Cersei Capital moved to New York, there is still a team here. The operation of the crude oil market this time, in order to reduce the penetration of the details of the operation of Cersei Capital from the outside world, this time in Melbourne. Side teams are also involved.

In fact, because Cersei Capital has established a batch of very large and complex crude oil futures portfolios through different accounts in various crude oil futures markets such as New York and London, and recently began to directly participate in spot transactions, except for Janet and Simon, a few people, even Even within Cersei Capital, few people know the company's specific position data.

Cersei Capital began to build long positions in late June, when the international crude oil price was still above $6.

Recently, in less than a month, the price of international crude oil has dropped to 13 US dollars, which is also the lowest price of international crude oil in Simon's memory.

If you don’t count the short positions of two-way positions, and only count the recent long positions, in less than a month, the book loss of Cersei Capital has exceeded 16 billion US dollars.

Moreover, because Cersei Capital is still increasing the scale of long positions and reducing short positions at the same time, if the international crude oil price does not rebound as expected, but falls to $10 a barrel as predicted by many institutions, Cersei Capital will not only All the profits made by the short position will be spit out, and even the principal may be lost.

In Simon's memory, international crude oil prices began to rise after the breakdown of negotiations between Iraq and Kuwait on oil production control at the end of July, and doubled directly after the war broke out on August 7.

Now, the negotiations between Iraq and Kuwait are still going on. According to news from the Middle East, the first stage of this negotiation will not be achieved until next week. Either Kuwait will make a compromise and reduce crude oil production, or the negotiations will break down. into an unpredictable situation.

Simon didn't think that the war could be avoided just because of his presence.

In fact, the internal cause of this war is much more complicated than most people imagined. It not only involves the interests of European and American oil groups, but also involves the still turbulent situation in Eastern Europe and the Soviet Union at this time.

However, just in case, this operation of Cersei Capital is relatively conservative. As of mid-July, the size of long positions established is less than 7 billion US dollars, and enough funds have been reserved to move Cersei The leverage ratio of capital is maintained within 150 times.

According to the plan, after all short positions are closed next week, although the principal held by Cersei Capital will exceed US$50 billion, the total size of long positions will still be cautiously maintained within US$250 billion.

After spending the day at Johnston Holdings headquarters discussing what's next for Cersei Capital, Simon's energy turns back to movies.

The filming of "Batman: The Dark Knight" is still going well, and Simon doesn't need to worry too much.

North America.

It has been more than three weeks since Simon left on June 6.

In the North American summer season, several new films such as "Die Hard 2", "Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles" and "Thunderbolt" have been released in succession in the past few weeks.

Going forward, "Human and Ghost Love", which was released on June 6, still maintained a strong box office curve under the pressure of many new films.

As of July 7, within seven weeks of its release, the cumulative box office of "Ghost Love" has reached 19 million US dollars.

Moreover, this tear-jerking love movie was released for the seventh week, and its single-week box office still remained at more than 1107 million US dollars, reaching 2 million US dollars. The movie with a total box office of over 1990 million in North America.

In comparison, "Total Recall", which was released at the same time, although the total North American box office reached 1 million US dollars in the seventh week of its release, successfully broke through 641 million US dollars, but the single-week box office has dropped to 477 million US dollars, and it is expected that there will be only 1000 US dollars left. box office potential of around $[-].

The first of Daenerys Entertainment's 10-film plans, "Sleeping with the Enemy", which Simon is more concerned about, dropped 2762% in the second week's box office after the box office of 33 million US dollars in the first week, and received another 1853 million US dollars.

A drop of more than 30% is slightly disappointing.

Fortunately, in the following three weeks, the declines of "Sleeping with the Enemy" were all within 30%, 21%, 17% and 23% respectively, and successively received another US$1461 million, US$1213 million and US$937 million.

In five weeks, the cumulative box office of "Sleeping with the Enemy" has reached 8226 million US dollars.

Although the box office fell below tens of millions of US dollars in a single week, there is no suspense that the film's North American box office has exceeded [-] million US dollars.

In addition, the production budget of "Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles", which was released on July 7, has increased to US$6 million compared with the US$800 million B-level film in the original time and space, and the quality is even better than the original version.Coupled with the golden schedule of summer and Daenerys Entertainment's spare no effort in publicity and distribution, the box office of the film reached 2000 million US dollars in the first week of filming, far surpassing the debut of "Ghosts" and "Sleeping with the Enemy". weekly data.

In just one week from July 7th to July 6th, according to the step-by-step account sharing rules signed by Daenerys Entertainment and the theaters, "Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles" has already recovered all production and publicity costs.

However, "Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles" largely relies on the popularity brought by animation and games in recent years. The quality of the film itself is far from reaching the phenomenal level. The high start of the first week inevitably means The next week's box office fell sharply.

August 7 to August 13.

In its second week of release, Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles’ box office fell 43 percent to $2267 million.

It earned 6245 million U.S. dollars in two weeks. This box office curve is actually similar to that of "Total Recall", which started at the same time as "Human Ghost".

Of course, the difference is that the production cost of "Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles" is less than one-third of that of "Total Recall" starring Schwarzenegger. The North American box office of "Total Recall" can barely recover the production cost. Teenage Turtles has already begun to generate huge profit returns through its second week of release.

Because of the excellent market performance of "Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles", Daenerys Entertainment soon announced the establishment of a sequel project.

The box office of "Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles" in the original time and space is not as good as the first one, because apart from its own IP popularity, it is actually difficult for this series to maintain too much appeal to the audience. This is largely due to the popularity of the series of animations and games.
