Hollywood Hunter

The car stopped in front of the Shell Villa at Dumei Point Estate. Simon did not mean to get off immediately, but said to Sarah beside him: "I will let you take you back."

Sarah Michelle Gellar froze, looking at Simon with some doubt and disappointment.

Simon instructed the driver in the front row and saw that the girl soon turned into a pitiful expression, reached out and pinched her little chin, and laughed: "It's not convenient tonight, if you have time, take you to Europe to play ."

Sarah still didn't understand it, but she grabbed the big hand Simon wanted to take back and held her face, saying, "So, Simon, we're done."

Simon nodded with a smile: "Of course."

The driver pulled the car door outside and saw that Simon was about to get off, and the girl leaned over again: "But, Simon, how can I contact you?"

"I will contact you."

After Simon got out of the car, he told the driver another word and walked towards the villa.

Sarah Michelle Gellar wanted to summon the courage to chase it out, but the driver closed the door before she could move. She had to sit back and looked at Simon through the car window towards the building that often appeared on newspaper and magazine pages On the seashell villa.

The front driver politely asked Sarah's stunned interruption.

The girl responded quickly, waiting for the car to start, not seeing the man, and looking at the manor destined for a glimpse at night.

Simon is well aware that he has been staring at countless eyes around him. This is California. Sarah Michelle Gellar is only 15 years old. Even if the girl herself is willing, she can’t guarantee that she won’t be caught and make fuss in the future. Some storms came out.

There is no shortage of women around, there is no need to bury such a time bomb.

In fact, I have been too busy recently, otherwise I can take the girl to other states tonight.The laws of the states of the United States are different. In many areas such as Utah or Washington, girls can get married at the age of 12.

The three daughters A, B, and D take care of Janet on the east coast, and the recently-doll-faced Zoe Parkes on Dumei Point and Isabel Dunn, whose breasts are very eye-catching, are responsible for Simon's daily life.

Simon entered the villa, and Isabel welcomed him.

After saying hello, Simon's suit folded and hugged to his chest, Isabel said, "Boss, Alice is back."

Although still serving as the female butler of the Westeros, Alice Ferguson spends more of her free time in San Francisco because of the Amazon online store.

Zoe and Isabel were recently arranged to take care of Simon’s life at Dumei Point Estate. In fact, it was also the female housekeeper who trained her successor after being acquiesced.

The Westeros family has already reached more than thirty people in North America.

However, after several adjustments, many girls were directly arranged in the city where the property under Simon’s name is located. The initial batch was able to approach the Simons.

After glancing at Isabel, he wondered if he intentionally squeezed his suit on his chest. Simon smiled and asked, "Where is it?"

Isabelle lifted her waist slightly under Simon's gaze, but with an unconscious look in her expression, she pointed in one direction and said, "Over the living room."

The Shell Villa has an activity area specially arranged for the maids. Generally, the bedroom is on the second floor. On the first floor, there are also their exclusive kitchen, cloakroom, gym and living room.

Of course, this treatment is limited to a few girls who can stay with the Simons, such as ABCD and the housekeeper. Most of the others can only live outside the manor even in Los Angeles.

Today is April 9th, and some business data for the first quarter of 1992 should be released.

Simon thought of this and walked directly to a living room on the east side of the villa hall pointed by Isabel.

Isabelle saw Simon's movement and froze a little, then quickly followed.

Simon used to seldom take the initiative to go to their rooms.

Just came to the door of the living room,

Standing in the doorway and looking in, Alice Ferguson was sitting on the sofa with a laptop, Zoe Parks snuggled beside her, arms around the waist of the housekeeper, and her chin was still knocking on her shoulder, with a smile on the corner of her mouth. The ground said low.

A baby-faced girl, Birdie, is beside a beautiful girl with short temperament and cool hair.

This picture, um, is beautiful.

just.

Simon could not help but feel a prying corner.

This is a small vase that I work hard every day to make money!

Isabelle Dunn followed Simon, she also heard Zoe's light laughter, carefully crossed Simon to look into the living room, and then looked at the male host's reaction, and suddenly had a slight feeling of luck and misfortune. .

Let you always be indifferent to us!

Hum.

However, in order to avoid too embarrassing the progress of the plot, Isabel took the initiative to cough a little, as a reminder.

The lighting in the living room is bright, but there are only yellow wall lamps in the hallway, so the two female housekeepers did not immediately notice Simon's arrival.

Suddenly heard the sound, the two women looked over together.

Seeing it was Simon, Zoe Parks, who was still wrapped around the housekeeper, reacted for the first time. Frightened cat jumped off the sofa and stood up. His eyes flickered left and right in a panic, then he greeted himself calmly: " Good evening, boss."

The female housekeeper, however, was very calm-looking, and got up to say hello, and took the initiative to send Zoe, who is a thief, to prepare coffee for Simon.

Watching the baby-faced girl run out of the room, Simon walked into the living room, sat down on the single sofa beside the housekeeper, raised her legs, looked at the cold beauty in front of her, and didn't speak. The evil boss looks like.

Isabel really wanted to come in and join in the excitement.

However, seeing the appearance of Simon, the girl had just stepped into the door a few steps and quietly retreated.

The female housekeeper sat down on the sofa again, looked at the laptop again with ease, and beat it a few times before handing the laptop to Simon, saying: "Boss, the basic revenue data for the first quarter of the online store has been preliminarily calculated. Finished, do you want to take a look?"

Simon took the laptop handed over by the housekeeper and placed it on his lap. He looked at the document on the screen and said: "Aren't you going to explain it?"

The butler's tone is still calm: "Boss, you never said that office love is not allowed."

Simon frowned slightly as if trying to recall it before saying, "Well, yeah, I didn't say that."

Seeing Simon's attention on the laptop screen, the housekeeper quickly and seriously looked at the expression of the man in front of her, and then she felt relieved.

My boss obviously doesn't really care about these.

After working for Simon for so long, Alice was also able to tell when this young man who always seemed to be always light and windy was really angry.

However, I suddenly discovered that for such a long time, this indifferent man showed so many angers that he couldn't even get one hand together.

It seems that there is not much that he cares about in this world.

Indeed, at the age of 24, it has reached a peak that most people in the world do not necessarily touch in ten lifetimes. It is too easy to get everything you want, and naturally it is difficult to care.

Can't help but think, what if it's you?

After having this idea, the female housekeeper suddenly realized that maybe her own idea was not accurate.

It's not that he has too much and doesn't care.

More likely, this is the nature of this man.

Geniuses are often lonely and indifferent.

The man in front of him couldn't even be described as a simple genius.

It was a miracle.

A miracle that makes it easy for people to have a strong desire to find out: what kind of person is he, how has he done everything now, and where is the limit in the future?

"Ellie, do you know? When a woman has a strong curiosity about a man, she often falls in love with each other unconsciously."

Suddenly there was a voice in the ear. The housekeeper woke up and suddenly realized that she had been staring at her boss for a long time.

There were two cups of hot coffee on the coffee table in front of me.

Obviously, Zoe had already sent coffee in, and had quietly left.

Some panickedly glanced back, subconsciously retorted: "I won't love you."

I regret it immediately.

This sentence is simply the standard response of the heroine of the soap opera.

Simon smiled and continued to read the financial report data on his laptop.

The Amazon online store opened on January 23 at the beginning of the year. In the first quarter, it only ran for about 70 days.

After the outbreak of first-day orders due to users' early adopters' psychology and extensive publicity and marketing, the subsequent sales of the online mall began to decline rapidly.

Compared with the staggering 1.32 million book purchase orders on the first day, the average daily order volume of the online mall after running smoothly is only between 50,000 and 100,000.

This sharp decline in sales figures is actually expected.

In the shopping carnivals like the Double Eleven in Simon's memory, the number of orders per day can often be more than ten times that of normal days.

On the first day of the opening of the Amazon online store, under the Westero system's tireless marketing, it is equivalent to a small shopping carnival.

Subsequent orders have shrunk sharply, which is the normal state of e-commerce development in the early days.

Even so, throughout the first quarter, the cumulative number of orders on Amazon's online store reached 5.03 million, 6.19 million books were sold, and sales reached $135.71 million.

In Simon's memory, Amazon was established in 1995, and it was not until three years later in 1998 that it achieved annual sales of $600 million.

The new version of Amazon has just completed sales of 135 million US dollars in the first quarter of opening. With the continued growth of performance in the following quarters, the annual revenue exceeded 600 million US dollars without any problem.

In the early 1990s, the annual sales volume of the US book market was around 500 million copies.

According to the sales data in the first quarter, in just one year, Amazon's online store's share in the book market is expected to exceed 5%. Such a growth rate of performance has made the entire physical book retail industry an enemy.

On the other hand, the amazing sales performance achieved by the Amazon online store is actually logical.

Unlike the original Amazon, where Jeff Bezos started from scratch and needed to start from scratch, now relying on the Amazon online store of Igret, it has almost 10 million users of the entire World Wide Web platform as soon as it goes online. This is a huge consumer group with a scale of more than 20 million, and it is the highest-end consumer group with the best education in the US economy and the highest degree of education.

In addition to a large and high-quality user base, the brand-new Amazon Mall also has an increasingly perfect Ypay online payment system, which is also far from what Amazon used to be.

Even in terms of platform capacity, once Amazon had to start from scratch, it could only scale up step by step, from tens of thousands to hundreds of thousands to millions of users.

This time the Amazon online store, when the platform opened, was able to support 5 million visits at the same time.

Moreover, because of the use of cloud computing technology, Amazon was able to support simultaneous access to a single segment of up to 5 million users during the first day of the opening, but at the same time, when user traffic fell back, it was very flexible to reduce server resources to corresponding Scale, and therefore significant cost savings.

This technology looks amazing in some technology companies that have seen its clues.

Computing resources have always been an essential and very expensive cost for information technology companies.

If the Amazon online store does not use cloud computing technology, only the huge server cost will become a big burden on the store. In order to adapt to the peak traffic, the substantial expansion of server equipment will also cause a lot of waste of computing resources during the unpopular period.

Another key logistics aspect, Simon also used his own prophetic advantages based on the impression of the Blockbuster model and a lot of other information, allowing Amazon to establish a close cooperative relationship with the US postal service company, the largest logistics network in the United States, to the greatest extent possible. Ensure the user's online shopping experience.

All in all, the success of Amazon's online store should actually be regarded as the result of the continued investment of Igret in the past few years.

It should be known that in the previous 1991, the company’s total operating income in YWS services, online advertising, Ystore and IE browser sales reached 491 million US dollars, which is also a small initiative in the industry. .

However, on the other hand, behind the company’s annual revenue of nearly US$500 million, the company’s net loss was as high as US$387 million.

In the history of American business, there is very little capital that dares to burn hundreds of millions of dollars every year in an industry where the prospect is completely unclear.You must know that the entry threshold for the Forbes 400 rich list in the United States in 1991 is only $300 million.

Moreover, the loss of US$387 million does not only mean that Igrid only burned US$387 million in 1991, close to US$500 million in revenue, and basically reinvested in Igrid’s talent employment, Various aspects such as technology research and development, promotion and marketing, and data center construction.

Many technology companies that are already familiar at this time, such as Intel, Microsoft, Apple, Oracle, etc., initially only raised hundreds of thousands of millions of dollars in financing, and then developed step by step.

Under the investment of Simon wholly without cost, Igret is a super high-growth development.

Moreover, unlike the early blooming of the Internet in the space-time Internet industry, it was precisely because Simon spared no effort to invest. Now the World Wide Web, even if it has always been under the banner of open sharing, anyone can see that this is a The company's basic monopoly network platform.

In the past few years, Westero has created a brand-new high-tech industry through joint efforts with a large number of technology companies such as Intel, Microsoft, Cisco, and AOL.

After reading the information, Simon casually glanced at the time in the lower right corner of the laptop, which was nearing eleven o'clock in the middle of the night.

Looking around, the female housekeeper was still sitting in danger.

Raising the corner of his mouth and smiling, Simon put down his laptop, got up and walked in front of the housekeeper, and said in the girl's panic with a slightly different flashing eyes: "I suddenly want you to honor your original promise."

After Simon finished speaking, like a robber, he went directly to pick up a woman with a stiff body, and turned and walked out of the living room.
