Four years later.

The special concert of the New York Philharmonic Orchestra was going on, and the stands in the box were very dark. Song Ya turned her gaze back and quietly looked at her son Rega beside her.

Time flies, he is almost 20 years old, he is 1.90 meters tall, has a handsome face, a good singing voice and sense of music inherited from his mother, black hair, black eyes, can switch between Chinese and English proficiently, and has a quiet but not ambiguous personality. Weak, with excellent grades in school and the leader of his fraternity, he is even more talented in a formal suit today.

Rhaegar was completely immersed in the magnificent symphony at this time, with a focused expression.

Just as the corners of Song Ya's mouth curled up in relief, Rega had stood up and applauded the audience. It turned out that the performance had just ended and the conductor of the orchestra was bowing to the audience.

Song Ya and the others also stood up and applauded along with Rega, sending the conductor and band off the stage, "It was a wonderful performance." Rega said.

"yes."

Song Ya lightly hugged him on the shoulder, and brought him back to the box behind, "Come on, let me introduce you, this is Riise, the chairman of Sanse Liquor Industry."

"Mr. Reese." Rhaegar held out his hand politely.

"Ha, don't you need an introduction? APLUS, we watched him from childhood to adulthood..." Riise, who helped him take care of the spirits business, is in his sixties. This tall Nordic man is still strong and has a loud voice. She shook her hand enthusiastically, "Have you gone to college yet?"

"Columbia University," Rhaegar replied. The ex-wife didn't want him to be too far away from New York.

"Wow……"

"Mr. Scout." Rega greeted the next senior manager introduced by his father.

"Little Lei Jiaha...you father and son really look alike." Scout is older. The defense subcontracting business he is in charge of has been low-key and booming in the past ten years. Drop so much money.

However, as the Michelle dynasty entered its last year in power, both Song Ya and him planned to stop.

"This is from Sears..."

The rest of the boxes are people from Scott’s old company. Sears Department Store escaped the bankruptcy crisis by merging with Kmart, another chain store giant ten years ago, and retained a certain degree of independence through Sears Holdings.

But Kmart failed to save it, and a decade later, the Sears holding company faced bankruptcy again.

Sears is a big employer in Chicago, and the Chicago consortium hopes that someone can take action to save it again, and send charcoal to rescue Sears, which has the funds of the Chicago old money family behind it. Song Ya can fully determine her status as the speaker of the Chicago consortium, politically I also bought an extra insurance. The national strategy of the United States has changed significantly compared with four years ago. In the post-Michelle era, I also need this insurance.

Scout, on the other hand, has the idea of ​​returning home in glory. He really has feelings for his old club, Sears.

To control Sears, which still has more than 100,000 employees, the strength of the defense subcontracting company is not enough. Song Ya also brought in Riise's Sanse Liquor Industry.

Intensive negotiations are currently underway.

"We can help in the First Bank of New Jersey v. Ministry of Finance case." Sears' people desperately needed to grasp the life-saving straw of Black Pharaoh, and eagerly proposed after complimenting Rega.

"That's great."

This is also another important reason why I plan to buy them. Song Ya was overjoyed but did not show any signs of dew, "You talk first, Lei Jia, come with me to the next door and see a few people."

Waiting for people to delay time is his best business tactic, and Song Ya brought out the intention to gradually understand his business empire. Lei Jia, who had established contacts, led him out of the box and walked to the next door.

"Ha, APLUS!"

David Geffen and his group were next door, "Let me guess, it's Mariah Carey's eldest son, right?" He recognized Rhaegar at a glance.

"Yes, Mr. Geffen." Rega stepped forward in a neither humble nor overbearing manner, a little embarrassed by his warm hug and face touching.

"Do you have a girlfriend?"

"Uh, not yet..."

"real!?"

"It's great here, David." Song Ya hurriedly interrupted David Geffen who started to harass Rega.

Here, the concert hall of the Lincoln Center, the home of the New York Philharmonic Orchestra, was awarded the naming rights by David Geffen with a bid of 100 million dollars last year. It has been renamed from the original Fisher Hall to the David Geffen Hall.

David Geffen is also in his seventies and has no children. During the eight years of the Michelle dynasty, the cause of same-sex equality that he has fought for all his life has made rapid progress. On the one hand, he began to spend money on this historical legacy On the other hand, he also needs to prepare for the return of the Arkansas Dynasty next year and consolidate his relationship with New York.

"yes……"

Spending 100 million is a bit of a pain after all, right? David Geffen looked at the newly remodeled concert hall with emotion, and asked with a smile, "What about you? I heard you intend to name the University of Chicago Law School?"

He intends to tirelessly go back to the Arkansas dynasty, while Song Ya decided to shrink back to the Chicago base camp and wait for the changes. The acquisition of Sears and the naming of the University of Chicago Law School are all to assist this strategy.

"We can't agree, they charge too much." Song Ya replied with a smile.

After the 2008 financial crisis, the University of Chicago sold the name of the business school to David Booth, the boss of Demingxin, for 300 million dollars. After gradually coming out of the crisis in 16 years, it is still a law school, which is naturally more expensive. .

"It's worth it, APLUS, think about it, that is the Law School of the University of Chicago, the birthplace of so many laws, economics, and social theories, and so many Nobel Prize winners..." David Geffen persuaded.

"I created so many theories and won so many Nobel Prizes, but I can't even manage the small things of my own campus security well..." Song Ya complained.

"Hahaha!" David Geffen laughed.

"You have such a good relationship." After bidding farewell to David Geffen, Rega expressed his observation conclusion.

"He is an old fox. We have cooperated and fought over the years."

Song Ya used this to teach: "Don't just look at the surface."

As for MJ, after so many years, David Geffen has already recalled the role he played in it. When Warner Records was privatized in 2011 and participated in the business war to carve up EMI Records, it was David Geffen. Fern cooperated with Sony Columbia Records to stir up pornography, but unfortunately he didn't get all the credit.

When the alliance of Song Ya, Microsoft, and the richest man launched an attack on Comcast, Jewish tycoons such as David Geffen also firmly stood on the side of the Robertson family of the same family.

However, when it comes to various affirmative-rights causes and the power of the Michelle dynasty, the two sides are close collaborators. There are same-sex groups on the one hand and African-Americans on the other. No one can completely tear their faces apart.

Song Ya simply clarified the real relationship between the two parties.

"I'm going to have the First Bank of New Jersey case done by the end of the year."

Leaving the Lincoln Center for the Arts, Song Ya took Rega to meet the Manhattan Gang. The former New York Mayor Dinkins was still alive and well. Also present were the former New York State Governor David Patterson, and the inner city department The old buddy Pierre Sutton, Pierre's father Percy Sutton has long since died.

After taking over the governorship of Spitzer, David lost the subsequent re-election to the son-in-law of the Kennedy family in New York's Cuomo dynasty.

The loss was due to David Patterson's own problems. After picking up a big wallet, he obviously drifted away, or maybe it was because he had been holding back for too long before, cheating, making frequent gaffes, instructing law enforcement agencies to tamper with the criminal records of acquaintances, and being strong in municipal bidding. Ling gave the contract to Jazzy, the lowest bidder, and asked for a free Yankees package for a friend...

And the work was too rough, and Song Ya couldn't save him.

"Are you not optimistic about the election of the Arkansas Dynasty?" Dinkins asked, half lying on the sofa with a cane.

"How can it be."

The Arkansas Dynasty is very stable this year, but it has completed its strategic shift. Song Ya continues to spend money, but his bloodline problem cannot be avoided after all, and there is a nasty Harvey Weinstein jumping up and down. For some reason, the Arkansas Dynasty It should not have been a difficult choice to refuse to abandon Harvey to please Black Pharaoh and Disney Chairman and CEO Linton.

When he thought of these things, he became worried, for himself and for the other side of the sea, "In short, it's best not to delay things until next year."

"We will fully support you. You don't need to worry about APLUS." David Patterson narrowed his eyes and pulled Rhaegar closer, and said while identifying and remembering his appearance, "but it may not be enough."

"The reaction of public opinion will be relatively large." Dingkins expressed his concern.

Now there is no First New Jersey Investment Bank. After a series of rescue operations after the financial crisis, the assets and liabilities of the investment bank were returned to the First Bank of New Jersey. Amelio has also retired, and Dr. Chen is now in charge.

"The people behind Sears are also willing to help, plus everyone else I can influence, Michelle's husband..."

The case was filed in New York, and Song Ya said, "Of course, I will pay back by saving Sears' life."

"That might work..."

"it should be OK."

Dingkins and David Patterson exchanged views, but one was old and the other was blind. The Manhattan Gang had completely withered after David Patterson's re-election defeat, "Pierre, please run..." Anyway, it was Pi El runs errands.

But the experience and connections of the Manhattan Gang in New York are still sufficient, "Rega, you can chat with everyone more." Song Ya left her son to accept Dingkins' teaching.

"Can't Jon go back to America?"

His current official girlfriend is Charis, who is still in the film industry. Charis, who is hardworking and hardworking, is still popular. Last year, she starred in Mad Max 4 Fury Road. Her bald head and acting skills once again received unanimous praise. , Hollywood's first-line actresses are firmly in the position.

Ever since Song Ya drove Robb to England to study, Xue Linfen simply moved there with her children soon after. Jon, who was born on the same day as Rhaegar, had already studied in Cambridge, so he had the opportunity to meet his biological mother Charis Even less, "transfer to your alma mater, and you can learn more about business management in Chicago."

She began to take Rega frequently for political and business engagements. As her current girlfriend, Charis naturally knew that she pretended to be casual and said in front of the dressing table.

"Jon please?"

The children grew up gradually, and there was an undercurrent of grievances and grievances in the backyard of their own house. Song Ya was very vigilant.

Compared with Robb, who confronts him with a cold face at first sight, Jon has a much more honest personality, and he is dull, doesn't like to talk, always follows the crowd listlessly, and is often reduced to a background board covered by the light of other brothers and sisters , In fact, this is also very good, Song Yaben didn't have high demands on him, and defined him as a wealthy and idle person in the family in the future.

"No, I... just miss him."

Charis hurriedly interrupted, put down the comb, stood up, turned around, and the silk nightgown slipped down her delicate body soundlessly.

"Let's talk about it after finishing the undergraduate course."

Song Ya was half lying down, and answered casually.

The current social trend is very different from that in the 1990s, and she is also 40 years old, so she no longer has to be taboo about going out with her openly. Song Ya looked at her with admiring eyes, and couldn't help but feel proud of the way she chose the forest. , She, like Amy, Halle, Jenny, and Shakira, has the miraculous ability to freeze age. She is considered poor among them. Now she needs some high-tech assistance, but the scale is still acceptable, and her figure is not bad. Well maintained.

"Harvey asked everyone to make a short election video calling on voters to support the Arkansas Dynasty. Everyone should."

Charis fiddled with her hair flatteringly, her waist swayed like catkins, "I received the script book, and I feel a little arrogant, as if Hollywood stars naturally know more than ordinary people..."

Song Ya smiled lightly. For so many years, she could always see through her cautiousness at a glance, so it was obvious that she didn't want to record it.

"Record it, this is a matter of expressing your opinion."

It’s not to express his opinion to Harvey. Song Ya is too lazy to be a dead fat pig who always likes to pretend to be a tiger, but the Arkansas Dynasty behind him cannot be ignored. After all, this year is the last year of the Michelle Dynasty...

"Hollywood must express its full support." Song Ya pressed the small remote control in her hand.

"Oh!" Charis frowned softly.

"hey-hey……"

"Charis, Charis..." In the middle of the year, Charis, who had returned to Hollywood, walked into the studio and met Harvey head-on.

After leaving Disney and the Miramax film industry he founded, Harvey still maintained his previous style in the new company Weinstein Films. Already resigned, after Goldman Sachs tried to control Weinstein Films himself and was defeated by him, he simply withdrew his capital and stopped playing.

Without the support of Goldman Sachs, Harvey has long lost the power he once had in Hollywood, but he is still alive and kicking.

"Hello, Harvey."

Charis, who came to record the short film, no longer had to pretend to him, and greeted him with a cold face that refused to be thousands of miles away.

"Welcome, thank you for coming to help."

But Harvey is different this time, the obsessive eyes that looked at him back then appeared again, he opened his arms and chanted lyrically, "Think about it, a new eight years, a new era is about to begin. "

"Yes."

Charis knew what he was showing off, "I'm here, do you want to record it now?" It was a short video, just a few words, and she ordered it.

"certainly."

Harvey didn't dare to really do anything, and stepped aside to go to the dressing room, "How is your talk with Disney's new film?"

"very smooth."

"Hehe, not necessarily? I heard that Mr. Linton's situation there is getting more and more difficult." Harvey pointed, "Maybe you can spare some time and come to help me."

"I don't think the negotiating for the second female film of a commercial film will not alarm the chairman of Disney." Charis frowned.

"Of course hehe." Harvey was blocked by her followers.

"It's just a simple fix." She brought her own stylist, makeup artist, entourage, and female attendant, just to finish things sooner, "What happened to Disney?" She knew that Disney had been controlled by her "boyfriend" for ten years, It is also very important to herself. Harvey's attitude just now made her feel a little worried.

"This? I sent it to you."

The female follower took out her mobile phone and sent a private message through a friend in the OpenDiary community.

Charis also took out her new Palm4090 mobile phone, put it in front of the vanity mirror, and sent a video link.

‘Mr. Chairman, regarding the new revelation that it was your insistence that caused Disney to miss Marvel and the wave of superheroes, do you have anything to say? '

Linton is being besieged by reporters, "In addition, Disney's live-action fairy tale film strategy has failed in succession in recent years..."

"I have nothing to say. The news is not true." Linton signaled his subordinates to separate from the crowd, and got into the car in embarrassment.

"Hahaha!"

Harvey, who was watching the video with his mobile phone outside, had watched this video several times, "Linton, APLUS..." He gritted his teeth, "Didn't expect me to come back? Hahaha!"

Unfortunately, at the end of the year, he couldn't laugh at all. The Arkansas Dynasty lost...

"Harvey! We're done!"

He got involved too deeply and made too many enemies. Next year's elephant party will not be a good fruit for him. Brother Bob rushed in and shouted, "They won't let us go!"

"What are you panicking about!"

Harvey looked at the vote counting results in front of the TV, and raised his hand to touch his forehead, sweating all over, "How could this be, how could this be..." he muttered to himself.

Bob flipped frantically, trying to find any news of a dramatic reversal like 2000.

‘The Federal Court of New York has just issued a judgment, ruling that the U.S. Department of the Treasury continues to hold shares in the First Bank of New Jersey in violation of the new financial management act, which means that the shareholders of the First Bank of New Jersey can redeem these shares within the time limit...’

There is even a channel that is not broadcasting the general election, "Don't cut it!" Harvey stopped his brother and watched intently. He knew who owned the First Bank of New Jersey, no, who owned it before.

'At the peak of the bailout policy after the financial crisis, the bailout funds once held 80% of the shares of the First Bank of New Jersey, which successfully helped it survive the risk of bankruptcy, and now the withdrawal of federal government funds will make the bank's main shareholders Rich people such as APLUS spend a relatively small price to regain control of the bank. After the assets such as Apple shares owned by the bank are unlocked, based on the current value calculation, if APLUS subsequently chooses to redeem his shares in First Bank of New Jersey, its His net worth will skyrocket to more than 100 billion, becoming the first 100 billionaire in human history, and the well-deserved richest man in the world! '

"OMG!" Bob exclaimed, holding his head, "You haven't messed with him lately, Harvey?"

"This is a power-for-money deal!" Harvey roared angrily.

'How will APLUS choose? It's not hard to guess at all...'

‘This judgment immediately attracted a lot of criticism, and the biggest beneficiary, the role played by APLUS, who is the super funder of the current government, is beyond imagination...’

The news broadcast a clip of Song Ya kissing the "enemy station" FoxNews before being interviewed.

"The private economy is the source of business vitality. The bailout fund has fulfilled its mission. The house price has almost risen to the level of 2007. The deleveraging has also been successful. The Ministry of Finance should not stay here. We don't need a nanny. A big government like this...' Song Ya said.

‘But the country saved you, they saved your business in 2008! ’ Cold-blooded Barbie Cassidy, a long-time FoxNews guest, interrupted excitedly, pointing at him with her index finger, “Don’t forget, if there is no bailout fund, your bank would have gone bankrupt long ago!”

‘So you don’t support small government? '

Song Ya asked back with a chic smile, which was in stark contrast to the other party's agitation, 'K... Mrs. Weiss? '

"Uh..." This is contrary to the concept of the Tea Party, Kasiti was momentarily at a loss for words when questioned.

‘But if the Ministry of Finance is counted as an investor, they should have a portion of the gains over the years, right? ’ The host helped Cassity out of the siege.

"This is a problem left over from history. The bailout policy of the Ministry of Finance at that time was too rough. In fact, the operating conditions of the First Bank of New Jersey were very healthy at that time..."

"Healthy!?" Even Harvey laughed angrily at this face.

'healthy! ? oh! You are such a shameless capitalist, the standard 1% of the American class, parasites..." Cassidy raged: "How many people are bankrupt because of you people, unable to pay their mortgages and homeless!" '

'You know how much I've invested in philanthropy over the years, Mrs Weiss. '

‘That’s just a tax avoidance method for you rich people. The comprehensive tax rate you enjoy is only a fraction of that of the middle class! The data shows that you have not paid much tax after 2008! '

'It's convenient for me to agree with you, I agree to increase the tax rate for the rich OK? I didn’t violate any tax laws, in fact, we’ve presented evidence in court that the deleveraged First Bank of New Jersey had a positive balance sheet ratio, and other companies like AIG Insurance…’

‘You can’t use current house prices to calculate. ’ The host poked it out.

'Shameless! '

"The situation at the time was irrational..." Song Ya said eloquently, "I admit that this is a lesson for all of us. Wall Street should pay more attention to risk control, and people should also take more into account when applying for mortgages." own actual solvency. I'm glad this has changed...'

‘What a shameless sophistry! You shouldn't be sitting here, you should be in jail! ’ Cassidy interrupted again.

"Well said Cassidy Weiss!" Harvey agreed deeply. He knew the former spokesperson of the Ministry of Justice, a blond and white woman who married the conservative politician Weiss and took her husband's surname. During the period, the two sides were mortal enemies, and this time they had to turn to praise.

"If nothing else happens, a new richest man in the world is about to be born. He is the former pop superstar APLUS, whose real name is Alexander Song, an African-Chinese mixed-race American..."

'Unless APLUS is a fool, once he gets back his equity in the First Bank of New Jersey, his net worth will far surpass Bill Gates. According to the data of Fujiby magazine in 2016, Bill Gates' net worth is 75 billion about……'

'APLUS won! ’ The news quickly spread around the world.

"You have won."

Song Ya lovingly scraped Kasiti's face with the back of her index finger, and time ruthlessly left marks on both of them, "Will you be rewarded for your merits?"

"Who knows, my luck has always been bad."

Years of setbacks have prevented Kasiti from being too optimistic. This time he made the right bet, but whether it will pay off is another matter.

"Anyway, don't think about that."

Song Ya felt that she was doing it again, "You spit on my face that day, and you must get revenge today hehe..."

"Ah!" Cassidy exclaimed from his sudden movement, "Moths! Capitalists!" she yelled.

It was not easy to meet, and the two fought like beasts.

"boss……"

Kasiti quietly left in the middle of the night while he was still asleep, and Song Zecheng pushed the door in early in the morning, "Arranged in South America, what do you think?"

After all, the Arkansas dynasty lost, and it was difficult for both of them to smile, "South America? In the name of going on vacation with Shakira and the children?" Song Ya guessed his thoughts immediately after years of cooperation.

"Yes."

Shakira has given birth to three children in total over the years, daughter Arianne, son Quentin and Tristan.

"well!"

Shakira put down her phone. The above Romp website just broke the news that APLUS, who was the richest man in the world, broke up with Charis and reunited with herself. Except for the gossip messages like "Shakira got the last laugh, she's so lucky", there was nothing left. The following are all scolding APLUS for robbing ordinary people and then robbing the country.

She sighed softly, and looked at the man walking by the sea with his private lawyer in the distance, "He really did it... the richest man in the world..." Everything was like a dream, she looked at the tall and somewhat lonely figure Mumbling to himself, "It's a pity that it's his dream, not mine..."

"Daddy is so strange, I just saw that he was not happy!"

The eldest daughter, Arianne, who has a tall head, a perfect figure and healthy wheat-colored skin, also walked over with her mobile phone. This beautiful mixed-race girl who combines all the advantages of her parents' looks is almost twenty years old. In fact, since she was a child, she has She spends most of her time in Long Island, New York, and has developed a standard New York socialite style. She knows everything she should know and should not know. I'm going to be replaced by someone who doesn't like him... Damn it, I can't even come back, it's all my classmates who ask me where I'm on vacation and want to come and play with me through private messages haha!"

"You don't have to worry about these."

Shakira gave her daughter a blank look, "He will definitely test your Chinese later, have you forgotten all about it?"

"Nihao, I want to change my car, I want to buy a bag...hahaha!"

"I had someone secretly do a B-59 poll."

Facing the warm sea breeze, Song Ya handed a piece of paper to Song Zecheng, and then raised his eyes to look into the distance, "The result is not optimistic. The ratio of the two sides choosing to press the launch button is very different. We must deeply understand that Yingmi The cold-bloodedness, madness and cruelty in the cultural base should be speculated with the most unlimited imagination, and you must not have illusions, especially young people..."

"OK, thanks."

Song Zecheng put away the paper, "Goodbye, boss..." He stretched out his hand with sobs.

"goodbye."
