America's Road To Wealth Chapter 172

  Chapter 172 Continues to expand the media territory

  Anne Hathaway's mental journey in the past month.

   Abel didn't know.

  But she has often been in a daze for the past month, and sometimes seems very confused about this matter.

   Abel knew.

  The bodyguards who stayed by Anne's side.

   Especially Jin Na, a female bodyguard from Moscow who looks like an aunt.

   Regardless of her current size, one can beat four or five men.

  But when he was young, he was a professional trained in Swallow.

  Annie's slight change of mind could not escape Jin Na's surveillance at all.

  Afterwards, Annie left alone, and went to the actor's guild to find opportunities.

   In fact, it is also under the control of Abel.

   He even authorized Jinna to mislead Annie to do that.

  Even the audition director dared to make such an unreasonable request.

   It was only done under the misleading methods of Jin Na.

   People are not fools, Anne Hathaway is also a "Smith girl".

   Without Jin Na's operation, how dare you mention that kind of thing without knowing it.

  Including Jinna contacting the Moscow gang in California afterwards, throwing the other party's waist into the black community.

  Abel knows the whole process and is authorized by default.

  As for Anne's follow-up thoughts on some small things, Jin Na is quietly guiding them.

  Swallow is a professional by birth, and everything is done very well.

  When Abel was brought over, Annie had already done her own psychological work.

  Forgot her distress and confusion for more than a month.

   This made Abel have to give Jin Na's work an excellent rating.

  In fact, including Charlize, Liv and others.

   Those female bodyguards who look good at fighting, but ordinary in appearance.

  In fact, they have all conducted similar training.

  The content of the training is to let them control the psychology of the protected object while monitoring.

   This is mainly because half of Abel's soul comes from China.

   And the color of the hat that Chinese men hate the most.

   is the color of the hat that Monkey Annan likes to wear most.

   Inside Rock Security.

   There is such a special small department dedicated to this work.

   So far, this small department is doing well.

  Anne Hathaway just had a little semblance of a trend that was quickly interrupted.

   For this reason, Abel has praised the rock security department in private.

  Jin Na was even more pleased to present a bonus check of US$100,000.

  Let them make persistent efforts and work hard to maintain the internal harmony of the boss's Crystal Palace.

  Although it is said that his habit, some people in the rock security who know it feel a little strange.

  It's normal for them to feel that way.

   After all, in the atmosphere of Europe and America, Abel's style of painting is really weird.

   Fortunately, these people found it strange, but they didn't say much.

  The boss is a super rich man, so it's normal to have a little eccentricity.

   The super rich, who doesn't have a quirk?

  The key is that the boss pays enough salary and good enough benefits, which can even be extended to family members.

  Dental health insurance that ordinary jobs can't afford, who would refuse these?

  So female bodyguards like Jin Na work very hard.

  Invisibly, a big net caught the women that Abel liked.

   Waiting for Anne to get rid of the very tiring yoga time and regain consciousness again.

   It was already night.

   Lying on the soft Simmons, Annie opened her eyes and regained her sobriety.

  As soon as she opened her eyes, she saw Abel walking towards her while taking off his clothes.

  The girl from New Jersey suddenly changed her voice in fright.

   "Ah? Come again! My dear, I don't want to do yoga anymore. Huh, I'm so tired. And my legs are numb and swollen."

   "That can't be done. I just came back from the outside. For things like yoga, you have to persevere, you just have to persevere."

   "Be good, be obedient."

   When Anne is really fully awake, and there is no Abel around to force her to do yoga.

   It was already noon the next day.

   "Hmm~"

   With a groan, Anne Hathaway, who was curled up in the soft bed, woke up with her eyes open.

  Just waking up, she habitually touched her side.

   Sure enough, it was the same as before, never touching him.

  The combat power is not equal, and even the time to wake up cannot be carried out at the same time.

  She looked outside the quilt with some trepidation. In the messy bedroom, she didn't see him.

   Only then did Annie breathe a sigh of relief.

  Finally, I no longer need to continue doing yoga.

  Although doing yoga is very comfortable, it is also very tiring.

   Even get hurt!

  Thinking like this, Annie struggled to sit up on the bed.

  She just felt as if her whole body had been torn apart, her hands and legs were sore and numb.

   This is the performance of excessive yoga.

  She struggled to move a few steps, picked up the phone from the bedside table, and pressed the number one button to dial out as usual.

  In most hotels, the number one key on the landline in the guest room has different functions.

   But for Annie, it doesn't matter which hotel she stays in.

   Dial the number one key on the hotel telephone.

   can contact Jin Na as soon as possible, this is her personal life assistant and female bodyguard.

   This is because every time she stays in a hotel.

  The room she lives in will be checked by rock security personnel.

  During the inspection, I changed the phone and replaced it with Rock Security's own phone.

   "Hello ~ Jin Na, are you there? I'm so hungry, bring me a suit of clothes and food."

"OK."

  The calm voice of Jin Na, a former member of Swallows and now an employee of the special female department of Rock Security, can be heard.

  Annie put down the phone with peace of mind and only waited for a few minutes.

   I saw the burly Jin Na, bringing in another female bodyguard, Anna, with clothes and food.

  The two female bodyguards were familiar with the smell of heather that filled the room.

  Every time the boss comes over, Miss Anne's room will be full of this smell.

   Sometimes even with ventilation, it often takes a day or two to disperse.

   Jin Na secretly asked her hometown, and it is said that there are witches who have researched in this area.

   The witch said only the strongest men.

   can make the room full of that smell.

  Jin Na felt that the boss should be such a man.

   With the help of two female bodyguards, Annie finished brushing her teeth, washing her face, and eating on the bed.

  After changing into a set of more casual home clothes, Annie left the bedroom full of heather flowers.

   came to the bedroom.

  Annie was so tired that she didn't want to move or go out.

  It was vacation time anyway, so she decided to stay in the hotel and wait for Abel to come back.

   But bored alone, she asked Jin Na to help turn on the TV.

  America's television stations are divided into three types: public stations, cable stations, and paid stations.

   Now in 2000.

  There are five public television stations in the United States, namely CBS, abc, Fox, NBC, and PBS.

  Among them, CBS, abc, and NBC are the earliest three traditional public television stations.

  Fox gradually established a TV network covering more than 90% of the United States from 1986 to the early 1990s.

  Parallel time and space,

  After 2006.

  Time Warner's WB TV merged with UPN to become CW TV, becoming the sixth largest public television network.

  At this time, WB TV and UPN are not yet at the level of TV networks.

   Today, among the five public television networks, four are commercial television networks that rely on advertisements for their livelihoods.

  The last PBS is a public institution, non-commercial, with the purpose of supporting the development of public broadcasting.

  It is probably equivalent to CiciTV, which has a weak political position.

   As for the difference between cable stations and toll stations, it is even more complicated.

  Like the leader of Abel's think tank team, Alan Baker negotiated the acquisition of AMC TV station, which is a typical cable station.

  Pay stations are those special TV stations that LSPs all over the world love to see.

  24 hours a day, at least 18 hours of playing mosaic images.

  Intercontinental Hotel, the TV in this top five-star hotel room.

   Except for special pay stations, all other TV stations are naturally fully connected.

   In addition, if there is a need, those who charge can also be viewed here.

   It means that there is an additional charge, and the hotel just needs to pay for it.

  Annie was alone, with two female bodyguards sitting beside her chatting with her.

   Of course it is impossible for her to go to those toll booths.

  When she accompanied Abel to hunt novelty, she watched it two or three times and imitated some of the content above.

   What she is watching now is a channel under the FOX TV network.

  FOX owns 29 TV stations and more than 240 channels, covering 90% of households in the United States.

   I have to say that Murdoch is indeed very skilled.

  As an Australian, he was able to be under the monopoly of the three old TV networks.

   Opened up this situation abruptly and became one of the media giants in the United States.

   Belongs to those who are really capable in this industry.

  Anne watched this channel under FOX.

   is a TV channel that specializes in broadcasting entertainment news, focusing on Hollywood gossip and Beverly Hills anecdotes.

   Of course, sometimes Hollywood or American showbiz.

  When there is any big news, it will also report it.

  On weekdays, Annie likes to watch this channel the most.

  Her initial Hollywood dream and star dream.

   It was only after watching the glamorous lives of those teenage stars on this TV station that I aroused my longing.

   During this period of time, what this channel is broadcasting are all things about teenage stars and teenage stars in Hollywood.

   Very gossip and frothy, but still young Anne.

  Even though she is already in this circle, she still likes to watch these unnutritious things.

  【. Britney Spears is suspected of being at odds with Justin, and was filmed by a media reporter. She stormed off Justin's car】

  Inside the channel.

  The female gossip news host is broadcasting in a relaxed and teasing tone.

  Suddenly a male host appeared on the screen, took the microphone of the female host, and began to say:

  【Play an interstitial message. 】

[This station has received the latest notice that the super tycoon of Wall Street, the founder of Storm Smith, the boss of MGM movies, the crocodile who came to Hollywood from Wall Street, and the spokesman of Abel Smith, David Jones, announced to the public not long ago Two messages. 】

  The voice of the male host is fast and dense, but it can be heard clearly by the audience.

  Broadcast professional basic skills are very strong.

  【The first message is:】

  【ab Smith Entertainment under the name of Mr. Abel Smith announced to the public that Mr. Smith has fully acquired AMC TV station. 】

  【It is said that the transaction involves an amount of about 1.5 billion US dollars. 】

  【Subsequently, Rainbow Entertainment, the original controlling shareholder of AMC TV, confirmed the news. 】

  【Rainbow Entertainment claims that they have received a deposit of 150 million US dollars from Mr. Smith, and the transfer agreement has officially come into effect. 】

  【Another piece of news about Mr. Abel Smith. 】

  【Today, Mr. Mike Richardson, the founder of Dark Horse Comics, the largest independent comic company in the United States, claimed that Dark Horse Comics has been fully acquired by MGM. 】

  【The amount involved in this acquisition is 210 million US dollars. 】

  【This figure is a little more expensive than Mr. Smith's acquisition of Marvel. 】

  【. This station will invite Mr. **** and Mr. OOO to analyze these two matters】

  【Interested viewers, you can】

   Seeing this, Annie looked at Jin Na with some joy.

   "Honey bought a TV station?"

   "Oh, AMC, I've seen their show! And honey bought the dark horse too! Now it's just DC!"

   Jinna wanted to roll her eyes.

  She felt that her protected object had a good temper and good looks.

   But sometimes it is really childish, such as the tone when I was on the phone with Abel before.

   Jin Na didn't answer Anne's question at all.

   This is her character in front of Annie, a silent, stable and reliable powerful female bodyguard.

   In contrast, another female bodyguard who does not belong to the special department for women.

   is more talkative.

  Annie also knew Jin Na's "temper", and soon chatted with the female bodyguard.

   "Amc's programs are average. TV dramas seem to be average."

   "Dark Horse Comics' comics and comic-adapted movies are very successful!"

   "But I think, after they are acquired by my dear, they will be different immediately!"

   "Anna, help me think about it. For the comics of Dark Horse Comics that haven't been adapted into movies, what female characters are suitable for me to play?"

   "There is more, Anna."

  Anne and the female bodyguard Anna were happily discussing the big money of MGM and ab Smith Entertainment.

  Abel himself has left Los Angeles.

  He ran to Palo Alto, which is under the jurisdiction of the San Francisco Bay Area.

  Palo Alto is adjacent to Stanford University to the west and is the center of Silicon Valley with many high-tech companies.

   is the founder of Stanford University, Leland Stanford, who promoted the creation of Palo Alto's economic development.

  At the same time, Palo Alto is also one of the most expensive cities in the United States.

  Abel has been to this place once.

  The last time Abra came here, it was mainly to buy shares in IDEO.

  Many Chinese people don't know the existence of this company.

  Let's put it this way, many of the Tesla cars after the front page were designed by this company!

  After the old American horse took over Tesla, IDEO undertook a large part of Tesla's design work.

   After all, the old American horse is not the real Iron Man, it's just someone else's character design.

  You let him do programming, programming or something.

  Maybe his sword is not old yet, and he can still do it.

  But you want him to design new energy core patented technology, or aerospace core patented technology.

  Then you are embarrassing others.

  IDEO appears to be involved in different fields.

  However, after all, they are in the center of Silicon Valley, next to either high-tech companies or Internet companies.

  It works as a design company, a creative company.

   Compared with other peers, it will naturally be more partial.

  IDEO is more inclined to the design of the Internet and electronic technology.

   When Abel came last time, the three founders of IDEO disagreed with his valuation at the beginning.

   But the Internet winter has not yet passed.

  Ninety-ninety percent of Internet startups in Silicon Valley are dead.

  The three founders of IDEO don't want the company to die like those companies.

   They finally agreed to Abel's valuation, making Abel one of the company's major shareholders.

  After that, IDEO also got a design proposal from Abel.

  Abel came here this time just to see for himself how IDEO is doing.

  As the major shareholder of the company, increase the dual identity of customers.

   There is also a super rich, newly promoted first-generation Internet and media traffic king.

  Abel's arrival naturally caused a sensation in IDEO.

  The founders of the three companies, Mike Nato, Bill Morgridge, and David Kelly were naturally present and accompanied them in person.

   It is even said that the management of some other high-tech companies and Internet companies who are also in Palo Alto.

  After hearing the news, he was also on his way to IDEO.

  In the archives inside IDEO.

  Abel saw some sketches of the plan that he handed over to design here.

  First of all, it is a large picture of the exterior design, which is printed and modified with some pencils.

  Looking at this sketch, it should be born out of some products that already exist now, with some sci-fi concepts added.

  Abel picked it up directly, and in the eyes of the three founders of IDEO, he tore it into pieces.

  In the surprised eyes of the three, he was expressionless:

   "I paid IDEO millions of dollars to design. I also injected money to bring you back to life. Is this how you perfuse me?"

   "Such a design drawing, any student who graduated from art can make it?"

   Seriously, Abel was a little **** off.

   This is mainly in his memory, the IDEO company in the parallel time and space is very dick.

  The first-generation Tesla has their contributions, and many home appliance brands and electronic brands in China have become more and more beautiful and fashionable designs.

   IDEO is also involved.

  This made Abel subconsciously think that IDEO should be the best creative design company in the industry.

   But he didn't take into account that it's still 2000.

  IDEO company is indeed very good in the industry, but it is still a start-up company.

  At the same time, Abel's aesthetics in this area is more than 20 years ahead.

  IDEO cannot design anything that meets Abel's requirements on the outside.

   is actually normal.

   Seeing his expressionless face, the three founders of IDEO fell silent.

   To be honest, they really have a little perfunctory meaning.

  But now, they know that if they continue to perfunctory, something will happen.
