At the end of the conversation with Celia Miller, Simon put aside the materials of the two projects of the Rifney Nuclear Power Plant and the Nokia Plant, and re-read the other two documents that had just been discussed with Celia.

The first comes from the city of Rifney.

Simon’s last trip to Ukraine had accidentally talked with several senior government officials in Rovno region about the achievements of China’s reform and opening up. He also casually mentioned the idea of ​​establishing the city of Rivny as a special economic zone similar to China.This was a small chat during the reception, but I was remembered there by accident, and I quickly tried to take action.

The document in hand is the plan of the special economic zone that the Rifney City Government plans to submit to the Kiev authorities after this time.

Not only that, some high-level officials of the Rivne State Government also plan to go to China for field visits. When the documents arrived in Simon's hands, the team had already set off.

Simon never helped Ukrainian economy develop prosperity.

However, if this plan is successful, it will be more beneficial to the layout of the Westeros system in Rivne Region.

Because special economic zones often mean a more open financial investment environment, overseas capitals like the Westeros System want easy entry and exit, which is easy to come and go, and it also necessarily implies strong import and export tariffs Favorable stimulus policies for foreign investors such as reductions and exemptions

On the other hand, although Ukraine’s developed industrial area is located in the southeast of the country, the northwest is a backward traditional agricultural area, but Rovno region actually has its own advantages. The northwestern state is only separated from Poland. A Warren state geographically belongs to a state and county close to Western Europe, and has a comprehensive highway and rail transportation network connecting Western Europe, which basically meets all the conditions of a "trade port".

The idea is good, but it is not easy to achieve.

The whole of Ukraine is now in a state of declining in equal measure, once such a "special economic zone" plan that will inevitably increase the attractiveness of foreign investment will be raised, and all parts of Ukraine will inevitably raise objections and even compete with each other.

Compared to the capital Kiev, compared to Petrovsk, the base behind the most powerful Ukrainian authorities, the Petrovsk Gang, compared to the large port city of Odessa on the southern Black Sea coast, and compared to Donetsk, an industrial center in the east, Regardless of what aspect it is in, Rivney, who is still in vain, is not qualified to become a special economic zone.

Therefore, Simon's reply to Celia was to have the Rovno state government postpone the proposal to the authorities for at least one year.

Otherwise, even if the Kiev authorities adopt this plan, and even if more than one special economic zone is finalized, there is little chance that it will end up in Rivney.Of course, the Rovno state government is now beginning to take various preparatory measures, such as going to China for inspection and so on.

Rome was not built in a day, and it is not wrong to prepare in advance.

The other document was the loan application from Yekaterina's father Maxim Noskov.

Simon directly rejected this application when he was in Ukraine, and then rejected Maxim's request for an interview. Unexpectedly, the other party still did not give up, and he also found Celia.

According to Celia’s description, Maxim is obviously not a person who is good at persuading others. When interviewing her, the other party only introduced Celia’s purpose of each sum of money in detail, one by one. For half an hour, Celia could not help but somehow couldn't help it.

In fact, this amount of money is not much. It involves more than 100 individual farms and collective farms, and the cumulative amount is only about 25 million US dollars.

Celia learned that Simon had rejected the loan application and used her personal connections to help Maxim solve the matter in private.

Funding comes from the Netherlands.

The developed country of Western Europe with a land area of ​​only 40,000 square kilometers has a population of more than 14 million. The population density is much higher than that of its neighbors. The compact land area obviously cannot support the food production of 14 million people.

During the period of the former Soviet Union, the Netherlands was one of the important grain export target countries in the Ukrainian region. It was regularly ranked among the top three Ukrainian grain exporters and brought hundreds of millions of dollars worth of foreign currency to the former Soviet Union every year.

After the disintegration of the Soviet Union, agricultural production in Ukraine collapsed. As a “granary in Europe”, there was a ridiculous degree of the need to import food to meet the needs of the country’s food and clothing. The Netherlands’ grain imports to Ukraine were therefore interrupted. Latin America imports grain.

With the gradual stabilization of the political situation in Ukraine, the Netherlands naturally wants to reopen this cheap source of food imports.

As one of Ukraine’s most profitable industries, the Westeros system will not let go of the grain export business in the country’s layout. The Ordek company in charge of Sergey Komorov was established last year A subsidiary specializing in grain export has been established and has successfully started business.

Using the contacts of the grain export company of Aldek, Celia quickly received a loan of 50 million guilders from a Dutch bank that intends to support the production of Ukrainian grain, equivalent to 29.5 million U.S. dollars. More loans.

Because it is a supportive agricultural loan, the three-year period, the annual interest rate is only 4.5%, and it can be directly repaid with food in the next three years.

In the end, the resources of the Westeros system were used. Although the matter was basically finalized, Celia still talked to Simon first, and said that if he insisted, this cooperation could still be canceled.

Simon certainly would not do this.

Moreover, Simon may also be able to understand Celia’s thoughts, and the sincere request of a middle-aged person who only wants to do something for the troubled people around him is even more within his reach, a slightly emotional person. It's hard to refuse.

Now it's the Dutch side who is making money, and Simon has no reason to interfere.

Whether or not the money can be put into practice does not require Simon to worry about it. Since the Netherlands is willing to pay for it, it will definitely carry out relevant supervision, so it has just been agreed.

A girl's voice came from the desktop landline, reminding Francis Levison that he had arrived. Simon withdrew these thoughts and let Alison bring the other party in.

Some details of the Westeros system's shareholding in the Levison Group are still being negotiated, but this matter has basically been finalized, and unless Simon himself regrets it, nothing will happen again.Simon and Levison Group Francis Levison agreed to discuss some of the company's future development ideas today. Levison just flew from Florida this morning.

In the plan, after receiving US$1.5 billion from Westeros, Levison’s tight capital chain will be completely relieved. After repaying a part of the urgent due claims, the remaining funds will be used for business operations. , Mainly the development of the Levison Group’s Miami Reserve.

The US real estate industry has begun to recover.

The development of new projects is now underway. From next year, the market will pick up, and it will happen that it will be able to gain more market share before other real estate developers. This opportunity will form a virtuous circle in the US real estate boom that will continue for more than a decade.

Because the real estate industry in the United States itself is very mature, coupled with real estate industry policy restrictions, it is difficult for this country to have a large-scale real estate giant.Therefore, Simon's plan is to expand the Levison Group overseas.

Such as China, such as Eastern Europe.

Simon is of course aware of various barriers to protection in the real estate industry.

However, the rapidly expanding Westeros system is no longer a problem to break through these hidden industry restrictions through intertwined interests.

Just like China, even if the Levison Group can’t stand in person, it is also feasible to enter the Chinese market through joint ventures. Levison Group’s experienced real estate development and operation team can help overseas joint venture companies fostered to take a lot of detours. Many real estate giants, such as the CBD mode of operation, are actually imitating overseas real estate companies.

The two chatted for an hour and a half, and Francis Levison left.

The other party also flew directly back to Florida.

Simon continued to deal with some affairs, and until more than six o'clock, Janet personally called and urged him to come home from get off work.Even on the way back to the Dumei Point Estate, Simon was still reading a draft "Communication Weathering Bill" that had just been sent from Washington.

Just the word "weathering" probably understands the content of this bill.

The main reason is that the federal government legislates and regulates adult-related content on the Internet that is already quite widespread.

There are probably not many people, both men and women, who have never been exposed to adult content on the Internet.However, probably not many people have considered how much interest this field involves.

Simon knew it.

According to the information in the memory, only the online part of the adult industry accounts for up to 20% of the entire Internet traffic, and the income from related industries also reaches 100 billion US dollars annually, which is no less than that of Google or Amazon. Revenue volume of technology giants.

Although the reputation of being involved in it will be very bad, it is definitely a piece of fat.Occasionally, Simon had to admit that he wanted to cut a piece of cake out of it.

Of course, with Simon's current status, if he does not want to be drowned by saliva, he can only think about it.

Many others do not have such scruples.

Therefore, in recent years, many related websites have appeared on the Internet, and even some video websites have appeared very ahead of schedule.

Be aware that due to factors such as traffic cost, except for the launch of a small amount of video or live content on the Igrid portal, professional regular content video sites have not yet appeared, including companies that have obtained relevant patent licenses from Igrid. Can only temporarily shelve related items.

The adult industry first made some things out.

Even if it is only very rough and very low-resolution video, it must definitely be considered as advanced behavior.

From Simon's point of view, it is almost the same as war promoting science and technology.

Although it will definitely not be involved, the Westeros system is still very actively promoting the legislation of the relevant parties.Because, an irrefutable fact is that the related industries have really greatly promoted the development of the Internet. Many Internet users choose to access the network in order to find some free content from it.

Moreover, the legislation and regulations of related industries can also prevent companies such as Igrid and AOL as network gateways from encountering litigation risks.

Such as search engine business.

Simon will not get involved in related industries, but as an online search tool that gathers and organizes Internet content, search engines will certainly inevitably touch certain areas.

If there is no formal legislation, this area is in a gray area. Once search engines provide relevant links, some people will inevitably make big fuss and initiate claims litigation against related companies on the grounds of harming young people. When similar litigation appears, it is often the case Class action.

This kind of thing, Igrid actually started to encounter last year.

Fortunately, the Google search engine has always been the edge business of Igret for outsiders. Although the usage has been rising rapidly, the attention has been very low under the operation of the Westeros system, and the relevant lawsuits have been properly handled. Later, it did not evolve into a large-scale class action.

Therefore, at this stage, the Google search engine under Igrid has temporarily blocked or hidden the relevant websites, and users often have to go through several pages to find a half-claw.

As long as the "Communication Weathering Act" is passed to determine that there is a law to follow, Google does not need to cover up this.

As long as you follow the rules, you don’t have to worry about someone deliberately finding fault.

In fact, Simon has always believed that whether it is video games or some content on the Internet, for teenagers, the main subject of supervision should be parents.

This is a natural responsibility for parents, not a content provider.

Parents with a little sense of responsibility, as long as they pay attention to restricting their children on weekdays, there will not be all kinds of broken things.

In the memories of the previous life, whenever I saw those minors recharge tens of thousands for playing games, after the incident, parents asked the game company to return the report that blamed the game and indulged the minors. Simon couldn’t help but feel ridiculous, and did not at all. I think the problem lies in the game, and the root cause lies in the abominable parents who shout loudly.

How much laissez-faire and indulgence will these people give to some kids aged seven, eight, eleven or twelve will have the opportunity to recharge the game?

Entertainment is the normal demand of everyone in modern society.

Whether it is film, television or music games, it is a very legitimate existence. The more developed the country is, the more prosperous the related industries are. Why don’t other people shout at all these things that poison young people?

Because the parents who were supposed to bear the responsibility of supervision and education were seriously neglected and put the responsibility on the game after the accident. This is as ridiculous as the murder case and the charge on the weapon.

It’s the father’s fault if he doesn’t teach.

The ancestors had made this simple truth a thousand years ago.

Therefore, no matter whether it is Daenerys or Eaglet, in the fields of movies, television, games, social networking, music, etc., as long as the content is produced within the scope of the rules, Simon has never had much scruples.

Various national laws and regulations have been quite perfect, and some reminders will not be lacking. If there are still teenagers who are "poisoned", then the "poisoned" is that the parents of the management do not care, and Simon will not worry about this. And he never felt any responsibility.
