American Fortune Life
Chapter 160: The Suffering of Thoughts
After dinner, a family of three sat in the living room drinking coffee, chatting and waiting for the third season of Desperate Housewives.
In fact, Andy really didn't want to see the show. It doesn't mean much that a neighborhood woman tore it apart, but in order to make Li Wanqing happy, she had to watch the drama helplessly, and Auston was tired of sitting on the sofa and waiting for the show.
“By the way, son, did you write the story behind The Gossip Girl? Show it to me later, it's just a little bit every week, it's just not enough...” Li Wanqing walked back from the kitchen with a large plate of fruit platter and sat next to Andy suddenly said.
“No, Mom, you read these youth novels too?” Andy had to smoke the corner of his eyes and look at Li Wanqing with a flattering look on his face.
“What do you mean by that? Am I old?” Li Wan Qingxiu frowned upside down, intimidating.
“No, that's not what I meant. I wrote this novel just to add a little bit of a young reader. To be honest, I really don't like to write this novel. It's too vulgar.” Andy is a little confused when he thinks of The Gossip Girl story.
“Oh, I didn't expect my son to have a teenage heart that would make the girl think so thoroughly! By the way, didn't a lot of feminists invite you to join us a while ago?” Li Wanqing laughed and teased her son. She had just finished her speech. The coffee in Auston's mouth almost sprayed. After swallowing it forcefully, she coughed a few times and turned to look at her son with a strange look.
Andy's face compares with a bitter smile and helplessly explains: “Most of the time I write these novels, I want to cut into the story as a weak woman, so that the reader can feel the contrast, the pressure to save eventually erupts, and the reader can feel a strong sense of conflict, who knows. Hey, the next book is about the lead actor! ”
“Oh, what about feminist rights, you seem to be a bit of an ostracist?” Auston's insidious excavation made his son jump.
Andy didn't know his father's bad feelings. Li Wanqing was a member of a feminist organization in New York. He wouldn't bother himself. He just grunted softly and said to Li Wanqing, "Mom, leave me alone. I'm not interested in your organization, but I absolutely support feminist rights! By the way, I remembered, I also had a video call with my investment company, and I went back to my room first... “
Li Wanqing snorted back to the bedroom with a cigarette and smiled softly. At this time, a retrospective of "Desperate Housewives" began, attracting Li Wanqing's attention.
Back in the bedroom, Andy walked to the computer and looked at the clock on the eye wall, and the time difference between the stick and New York was 12 hours, which meant that Stephen, the lawyer assigned to the stick, had just started working.
Turn on the video software, tap down Stephen's name, request a video connection, and in a few minutes, an Asian face appears on the computer screen.
“Good evening, boss.” Stephen says hello first with a smile.
“It's morning over there. Are you used to it at Smitter's?” Andy smiled.
“It's okay, it's just a bit of a dietary problem, the beef here is too expensive, and I can't stand pickles all day.” Stephen couldn't help but throw up.
Andy shook his head with a smile, he was Chinese, but he was a standard ABC, inspired by American culture, and speaking frankly was fatal, without the bends of heaven, even in the face of Andy, the big boss.
“I saw the fax you sent back, you worked very efficiently, you registered the company the day after you arrived in the stick country, I was satisfied, by the way, how was the copyright registration for the few compositions I gave you?” Andy asks the questions that concern him most.
“It's all registered, it's going well, the sticks are still very important to the American Emperor background of our company, the program goes fast. ”
“Oh, the stick country also depends on the nationality of the dishes. For my father, they still maintain the image of dog legs that they want to get rid of and depend on. Our company's background has advantages, but also disadvantages. The sticks are still quite exclusive. If you can let Han Chengyu do some things, you can let him out.” Andy still knows a little about Smitters' inferiority and complexity.
“Got it, boss.” As an ABC, Stephen doesn't have a lot of negative feelings about the sticks, but it's a bit disdainful to see the sticks on their knees when they can't move.
“You have two tasks in the next phase. First, give me a good look at the investment, keep an eye on Han Chengyu. I don't want your own investment to float and let you recruit financial staff to control the funds. Each one should be recorded in detail. Of course, you should stay out of the day-to-day affairs of the entertainment company. If the CJ entertainment representatives make a scene, you should maintain support for Han Chengyu. The second point is to use Han Chengyuk's relationship with CJ Entertainment to connect with Smith's TV station, and to establish a good relationship, so as to set the foundation for selling the art show next step. ”
Stephen in Smithda earnestly recorded what Andy said. He talked to Andy once before he got here. If it wasn't for what Smithda said, it wouldn't be his turn. If he didn't come to Smithda, he'd still be his trainee lawyer in the Los Angeles division.
After talking to Stephen again for a while, Andy turned off the video call, looked at the time and thought about it, feeling that Ivana must have called her before she could rest.
“Honey, aren't you resting yet?” The phone was quickly turned on, Andy hasn't come yet, and Ivana's tired voice came through.
“Not yet. I missed you, so I called you. Honey, whenever you get back to New York, I miss you so much...” An episode of Barbara's love made Ivana very popular.
“Girl, you are a genius writer, you have a sweet mouth...” Ivana smiled joyfully.
“Hey, my mouth isn't all sweet, and it's still amazing. Definitely a self-taught talent, you should know best, hey...” Andy listened to Ivana's beautiful voice and couldn't help but feel itchy. After all, she had been separated for several days and was in love with a couple, almost every other day.
Ivana hasn't reacted yet, but when she heard Andy laughing at her every time she bullied her, she had to remember what happened on the couch that day, and her white face turned red and she whispered with a hint of shame: "Shit! ”
“Hey, hey! Some people just say they hate...” Andy said cheaply to the phone.
“You bastard! Besides, I can hang up on you in LIU!” Ivana blushed like a red apple, though a little embarrassed, but the chun in her eyes almost overflowed, with only one bath towel wrapped around her, her legs forced together.
“No, baby, I really missed you!” Andy's breath was a little disturbed, and he himself knew that he had invested a lot in Ivana's feelings. Listening to her sweet voice, thinking of the style of her elegant and charming speech in her previous life, his heart chords trembled slightly. After all, that speech was truly a fan of her circles all over the world.
“Phew!” Ivana seemed to see the scene in front of her, blushing with shame, hearing Andy's breathing on the phone, "I have a few days to go back, you hold on for a few more days, and now that I'm back, you can't touch me, take a nice, cold bath... ”
“God, this is torture! I don't care. You better get back here as soon as you can. You know how much I missed you? Besides, I've been thinking about an interesting thing lately, so come back soon!” Andy complained a little wildly and whispered, but soon he started driving again without the shape.
“Interesting things?“ Ivana was confused by Andy's words, but when she contacted Andy about what he had said before, she quickly reacted. She didn't even notice the flattery in her eyes. She just scolded with shame: “Bastard, can't you be serious! I can't stand you, I'll be back as soon as I can. ”
Andy hung up a little bitterly and lowered his head to comfort him: "Let's go take a cold bath. It'll be a few days before we meet, hey... ”
In San Francisco, Ivana was also a little upset when Andy's phone rang, lying on her bed, rolling over and over, closing her eyes as if to see Andy's face pounding up with a smile, sitting up a little angry, grabbing her hair with annoyance, "How can this make people sleep... ”
