American Fortune Life

Chapter 1244: Throw a Cannonball and Blow Up a Fish

“Cultural relics are the testimony of historical civilization, documenting every stage of human development, the fruit of wisdom and priceless treasure, and it is incumbent upon everyone, whether they are national relics or not, to protect them from harm. History cannot be repeated; only protection can be inherited. ”

In the car of return, Andy held Lima and said with a serious expression, perhaps a little shameless, but the reality is that both Ah and Iran have now lost their ability to protect them.

Those at Andy's warehouse are really just a drop in a barrel of water, and in Iraq, the looting of cultural relics in both countries is extremely common, and digging antiques for locals is like digging potatoes: harvesting them and selling them.

At the same time, there was even greater chaos, with many arguing over who owned the artifact when it was murdered or killed by sticks, and the black market on the border performing all kinds of black eating every day.

Large quantities of rare art are secretly shipped into the UK, sold in the US, and sold through a wide variety of channels, through merchants, via the Internet, and even in trucks. There are said to be no fewer than 10,000 items on eBay, and the cultural relics of Iraq are being sold.

Not to mention the numerous rare artifacts that have been man-made and destroyed in the course of transport.

It's not that Lima hasn't guessed where these artefacts might come from, but, so what, as her man said, is that someone is needed to protect them, and as for the rest, she doesn't care, she knows that her man has this hobby, and it's enough to have this ability.

Back home, Lima watched Andy open the suitcase, pouring out all kinds of gems from a black velvet bag, a pair of grey green eyes sparkling with glare and a curly, excited yell at the corner of his mouth.

Rubies, sapphires, emeralds, marine sapphires, zircons, yellow crystalline gems, green curtains...

Different sizes, but confusing enough, Lima picked up a ruby the size of a thumbnail nail and blood red, and was obsessed with watching.

Indeed, women of Dragon descent, sparkling stones, have the most lethal temptation for them.

The woman who was completely in XF went wild, undoubtedly a very scary thing, the Wolf's Palace transformed, the gen deeply entrenched, until the death of Hugh...

The next day at around 8: 00 a.m., Andy seemed a little tired and beat up a duvet. He fell asleep and walked into the bathroom. As for the Wolf's Palace, don't talk about running and exercising in the morning. Can you start both in the morning?

Andy misses those long tui's as he takes a shower. Tsk, tsk, tsk, tsk!

After taking a bath, Andy walked out of the bathroom surrounded by a bath towel, changed his clothes, leaned over and kissed Lima's forehead, still asleep, and walked out of the bedroom quietly.

The maid saw Andy go downstairs and immediately brought him a cup of coffee, "Sir, this is this morning's newspaper and Newsweek, and breakfast is ready. ”

“Thank you,” Andy said faintly, taking the lead in opening the latest issue of Newsweek, the cover of which was the French political crowd portrait, and naturally the French political scandal in the notebook, as the front page of this issue, the Globally Harmonized Edition, is a big pen.

Of course, in order not to become completely an enemy of the French and an undesirable member, the Weekly News magazine slightly reduced the exposure and replaced the names of key figures involved in serious violations, such as corruption and extortion, with letters.

This is also avoided because there is no evidence to prove that the other party is guilty of avoiding being bitten back by the client. The best way to defame the newspaper is to replace the name with an alphabet, even if it is enough to kill and injure, say who knows, please take your seat!

Ever since the British came up with a new rule of 'defamation, no winning, no paying', it's sort of completely detonated the resentment of the great celebrities, stars and dignitaries of the Western world over the media who hacked them, and started running to England to fight lawsuits, and for a while, it made some media wolf.

The worst of all, of course, is Fleet Street in the UK, followed by multinational media like Newsweek, which, as before, are prone to SAOs if they don't have enough evidence to make stories or anything, so many media outlets now don't have a real name when they're covering some scandal, letting readers and clients take their seats.

Andy believes that this issue of Newsweek will be globally popular. This is not what the gossip tabloids make up. There is nothing huge about the rhythm of French President Old Sa. Even the fact that his ex-wife ran away twice from home and ran away with people is described in detail, almost completely turning over Old Sa's private life.

Not to mention the other big French politicians, almost a special issue, introducing the world to the wonderful and chaotic private lives of French politicians, the details of which are almost beyond dispute by the big French figures who saw this issue of Newsweek, such as needle felt.

Even though the scandal of this private life is highly tolerated by the French people, it cannot be calmed down to see these officials of their own choosing one by one as messy as the se ghost gathering.

Nima, a beautiful minister, almost had a tui with several cabinet members, even President Sa was the guest of the curtain, and Nima was a little jumpy in the toilet, too much!

Whoa, whoa--

The world was loud, and then there was a laugh, and the British were almost insane, and all the media, the Internet, were starting to make crazy noises about the French, the American media, the German media, even Italy, which had made a model without clothes into a minister, had started a mockery pattern, and it was all buzzing.

This, in turn, gave the world a precious moment of relaxation in the panic of the financial storm, and gossip temporarily replaced anxiety and panic.

Andy knew that his phone would soon become busy and, as he had expected, just after breakfast, his phone started ringing as he strolled on the green lawn in the front yard of the main house.

Old Smith laughed so loudly and happily, laughing at the concerns of his' French friends', hoping that Newsweek would not divulge something...

And then Paulson...

General Electric...

Goldman Sachs...

Finally, Andy waited for his most wanted contact to say please call the Vivandi Group.

When it comes to this French water company, Vivandi, many of you may be a little stranger, but Havas News, Snowstorm, Universal Film, I'm sure many people are familiar with it, and yes, all three of these companies are subsidiaries of Vivandi.

At the same time, the company is a standard egg company, and their favorite is playing "capital games”. Frequent splits, reorganizations and cash-outs make the acquired company bitter, but for Viwandi, money is the hard part.

After the merger of the NBC and Universal Film Industry, Vivandi held 20% of the shares of NBC Global, and this Andy merger, the French very chicken thief no longer kept yelling at the waist to sell the shares, but rather dragged them off the table, which made it hopeful to persuade them to acquire the 20% and then negotiate with Andy that General Electric was very annoying.

And Andy naturally knew the general electricity caution, but what made Andy depressed was that neither General Electric nor his people could pry a gap from the French thieves, who were prepared to bargain.

Neither Andy nor General Electric wanted to be the culprit of the slaughter, and now both sides are a little reluctant to deal with the French, but as shareholders, they had to take these bastards with them when they negotiated.

The Frenchmen also saw what Andy and General Electric meant. They were ready to get Andy to complete the merger and acquisition first, and after cleaning them up, Vivandi would have been a good player in capital games. They had also done an in-depth investigation into Andy Smith. Naturally, they knew that this young man's means were poisonous. They really had to wait for Andy Smith to win NBC Worldwide, and I'm afraid they would become beef on the case board and let this young man kill them.

For a group company like Viwandi, Andy can play with them in just two moves. YU Xianyu dies, financing increases diluted shares, various losses, find a reason not to dividend for several consecutive years...

Viwandi's board of directors is not a fryer, but it was a bit too silly to pretend before. If they came to the door, I'm afraid they would be slaughtered with a knife, and they were wondering how to find the steps to avoid losing themselves. Viwandi just got a call from a politician they funded.

The first time I heard it was to say please to Andy Smith, Vivandi's CEO, it was dark, the steps were there, and I found Andy's phone call without saying anything.
