American Fortune Life

Chapter 381 1 dollar, sell it?

Only peers will have the hatred of Hong Guoguo!

And Pete Kaplan's hostility towards Jon Meacham also comes from this. After all, once Andy acquires "Newsweek", his position in the hearts of Pete and "The Observer" will be greatly affected by the boss. The diversion of resources and funds is inevitable, and Jon Meacham's own talent and influence in the industry are also one or two blocks away from him, and the threat is great.

"Peter, you don't have to be so nervous, our goals are different, and the decision is in Mr. Smith's hands, and I just want to find a good owner for the newspaper that I have worked hard for decades!"

Jon stared at Pete deeply, his face regained his composure, and turned his gaze again to Andy Smith, who was saying goodbye to a celebrity couple and returning with two beautiful girls.

"Why are you two talking so speculatively?" Andy took the champagne that Leighton Meester handed to him, and asked with a smile to Pete and Jon, who looked at him and smiled slightly.

"It's nothing, let's talk about the bank's loan issue..." Pete Kaplan lost no time in applying eye drops to Jon, and then glanced at him after speaking.

"Oh? How much is Newsweek in debt?" Andy raised the champagne, took a sip, and there was a flash of light in his eyes.

"Ahem, about 300 million, but we can streamline our personnel to reduce the financial balance..." Jon Meacham couldn't help but secretly hated Pete's insidiousness.

"Layoffs? This is not something to pay attention to. You will only do this if you really have no choice! It seems that Jon and your newspaper are in a lot of trouble. What about the union? Will you compromise?" Andy's expression became serious, and he said to himself Talking to himself, in the end it seemed that he wanted to retreat in spite of the difficulties.

"We can talk about the trade union..." Jon smiled wryly in his heart, knowing that hope had become slim again. It is rare that he really wants to let the boss hand it over to a real estate businessman in his 80s who is about to meet God. It is conceivable that the other party will Drastic layoffs were made to reduce expenses.

"Huh? How about this, I can take over the bank's debts, and I promise not to lay off a large number of employees, and the management will not make major adjustments. I will buy the loss-making "Newsweek" for $1!" Andy smiled slightly. , the corners of the mouth were turned up, revealing a mouthful of white teeth, shining brightly under the bright lights of the banquet hall.

Seeing Jon Meacham leave with a look of hell, with a complicated expression of disappointment on his face, Andy drank the champagne in his glass with a smile, looked at the three people who stood there stunned, and chuckled softly: "Why are you looking at me like that?"

"Gudong..."

The three of them looked at each other, swallowed involuntarily, "Andy, that's Newsweek..."

Andy looked at Blake Lively amusedly, and asked back: "So what? More than 300 million in debt, 10 million in annual losses, overstaffed departments, difficult trade unions, all I want to get rid of this huge pit The owner of the newspaper, I should be very happy to take over them, originally I didn’t want to spend a penny, but think about it, let’s pay a dollar!”

The three of them looked at the calm smile on Andy's face, and talked indifferently, as if it was a matter of face for him to pay a dollar, but after listening to him, it was true, this kind of money-losing product If you give it to some people for free, they may not dare to take it.

Seeing Pete's hesitant appearance, he handed the wine glass to Lively, who was staring at the stars, and said to the two girls who turned into two fans with a smile, "Go and help me with that glass of champagne."

Looking at the graceful figures of the two girls leaving, he said lightly, "If you have anything to say, just say it!"

"Boss, I don't agree with the acquisition of "Newsweek"!" Pete gritted his teeth secretly, and said with a serious face. Seeing Andy's continuing expression, he continued: "Since it was acquired by the "Washington Post" in 1961, "Newsweek" The style of Newsweek is becoming more and more left. After many incidents, it has been included in the unpopular blacklist by Washington. Although the acquisition can suppress internal voices,

Change the style, but the serious liberal style flowing in the blood of their newspaper will not be easily changed! "

Andy looked at Pete Kaplan with a half-smile, and said lightly: "It doesn't matter, left is left, isn't there "The Observer", since they all talk about freedom of the press, then of course we have to accept different voices, why, worry about being compared Ever read Jon's Newsweek?"

"Hehe, how come..." Pete's old face couldn't help but sneered, and then he straightened his body confidently, and said with firm eyes: "They just have a little more historical background than us, and we can rise against the market , not afraid of any opponent!"

"That's good! To be honest, people still have a tendency. We fight on both sides. Every time I see you enter my office with a sealed file bag, I get a headache." Andy said jokingly.

"Ahem... The newspaper is in this situation today, thanks to you, the boss. After all, it is all thanks to you, the boss, that it can withstand the pressure of many parties!" Peter Kaplan naturally knew why the newspaper was able to turn losses into profits and develop rapidly. First, there is sufficient funds, but because of the strong background of my own boss, when reporting some news, I don’t have to look forward and backward as before. As long as I don’t touch the red line, I can truly achieve the independence of news reports independent of the government. , which undoubtedly established a more solid credibility among the people.

"Okay, don't flatter me, just try to trick me! Don't scold our president Xiao Feixie recently, the interview should be similar, don't scold me today, and give him an interview tomorrow, that's very unkind ..." Andy said with an angry smile, these media people are too thick-skinned, they don't care, he still cares about face.

"Ahem... Okay, I see!" Pete Kaplan blushed again, scolding the president is a traditional reserved item in the United States, and everyone is not used to scolding each other for a day, except for the most stinky News Corporation. Kneel and lick the newspapers in Washington.

"It's been more than two hours, and the time is almost up. I'm a bit hungry. I'm going to take the two beauties to dinner, together?" Andy looked at his watch and said.

"Hehe, I won't bother you, boss, on your date with the two beauties."

Andy shook his head speechlessly and laughed. Leaving Pete aside, he said a few words to the two girls who were joking and joking not far away, and left the banquet scene holding his arms left and right.

The paparazzi reporters squatting at the door saw the appearance of the three of Andy, and they immediately blushed with excitement. Is there going to be big news? The rhythm of a threesome!

The senior paparazzi gave up the opportunity to gather around to take pictures, and ran back to the car one by one, ready to follow.

In the western restaurant, the three of Andy toasted and drank while chatting and laughing. On the street through the floor-to-ceiling windows, more than a dozen paparazzi kept taking pictures with long-lens cameras, and followed the paparazzi who wanted to make big news in the dark. They were so angry that they wanted to go up and strangle this group of colleagues to death.

Threesome? Hehe, how could Andy commit such a death! Knowing that the paparazzi is stalking him, he still swaggers and procrastinates. Naturally, there will be no overstepping behavior. He is a very gentleman all night, and he is polite and courteous when dining. There is no ambiguity. The hype made by the exposure rate is average.

The beauty of New York may only be seen more clearly and thoroughly after nightfall. Her beauty, enchanting and blurred, makes people want to get close. Her beauty, magical and glamorous, makes people unpredictable but yearning.

The Cadillac running on the road from Brooklyn to Manhattan is like a steel monster. In the large and comfortable custom-made rear space, there are blushing women gasping and whispering from time to time.

Andy greedily buried his face in Lively's white, tender and plump peaks and charming ravines with his high pink neck, closed eyes, and blushing face.

Blake Lively opened his red lips lightly, and murmured, as if he had thought of something, and opened his beautiful eyes slightly with a blushing face, the scene she saw made her extremely regretful.

As if feeling something, Liton raised her head coquettishly to look at Lively's pretty red face, stuck out her tongue and licked the corner of her mouth, smiled, and continued to work hard. . .

During the more than half-hour drive from Brooklyn to Manhattan, the paparazzi followed helplessly, hoping to get the big news.
