Chapter 117 New York World

“Today’s harvest is really good.”

After coming out of the building and getting into the car, Milo said with emotion.

"Good harvest?" Monica asked casually following closely behind.

"Yes, I have a feeling that Monica, Britney, Christina, and that boy band will all become idol singers that many people will chase after crazily."

Milo said cheerfully.

It won’t take long, two years at most.

Disney will regret their decision today.

Milo thought.

I don’t know what Michael Eisner’s expression will be at that time.

Those are several cash cows.

Seeing his confident expression, Monica wanted to say - how do you know they will succeed?

Idol singer...

It is easy to become a singer, but it is not so easy to become a popular idol singer.

But then she thought about how she had known Milo.

Whatever he wanted to do or whatever he judged, he never failed or made a mistake.

He says so now.

Monica subconsciously felt that perhaps those boys and girls really did have some potential and abilities that she could not see.

But Milo saw it, so he chose to sign these people in advance.

…

…

At night, the Grand Central Hilton Hotel in the heart of Midtown Manhattan, New York.

Outside the hotel, luxury cars were driving slowly.

The luxury cars drove to the lobby of the hotel entrance, dropped off their wealthy, famous or famous owners, and then left to find a place to park.

Everything about Manhattan is good except parking.

Here at the Hilton Hotel, there's a charity auction tonight.

It is organized by major newspapers across the United States.

Some celebrities and stars will naturally not be absent.

Wherever there are stars and celebrities, there are reporters and paparazzi.

Especially tonight the bosses of major newspapers will also be there.

So even though it wasn't completely dark yet, the flashing lights in front of the Hilton Hotel made it as bright as day.

Milo wore a slim-fitting blue-black suit tonight, a crimson bow tie, and leather shoes as bright as mirrors.

The watch was an Omega gift from Zeta-Jones after she became famous and made a lot of money after filming "Angels and Demons".

His neat golden hair is combed meticulously, revealing his forehead. Needless to say, he is handsome.

Standing at the hotel entrance, he looked up at the Hilton Hotel. This was his second time attending a banquet at this hotel.

The last time was the Met Gala hosted by the evil queen Anna Wintour, and he just came there to have fun and gain some experience.

After getting out of the car, Milo squinted slightly because of the flash, walked onto the red carpet, put one hand in his pocket, and took a few photos in response to the shouting reporters.

"Mr. Blackburn, is it true that your media group is interested in acquiring U.S. News and World Report?"

"Excuse me, are you really dating Ariana Rockefeller? If so, is the rumor about you and the Hollywood actress true or false?"

"Mr. Blackburn..."

“…”

Ignoring the reporters' shouting, Milo walked quickly into the hotel after they finished taking pictures.

When we arrived at the banquet hall, many so-called celebrities were already there.

At this time, most people were walking around casually. Some were in groups of two, three, or four, chatting enthusiastically together. You could also see them nodding or shaking their heads, or laughing quietly.

At this time, the banquet hall had been completely decorated, with a wide podium and round dining tables below. In the middle of the table was a large bouquet of pink flowers. Waiters wearing white shirts, black vests and bow ties were constantly moving among the crowd, serving champagne and red wine.

As Milo walked into the banquet hall, he saw Arthur Otz Salzberger, the owner of The New York Times, coming up quickly from the buffet area, and Milo also took a few quick steps.

"Good evening, Mr. Blackburn. Have you had dinner? The banquet starts a little early tonight, so we have prepared rich food here. You can eat something first." Little Arthur said to Milo with a smile.

From Arthur's perspective, Milo Blackburn is his ally and even his superior.

Firstly, Blackburn owns about 3% of the New York Times.

These were the shares that The New York Times exchanged for when it bought the land from the Blackburn family.

Part of the land where Times Square is located belonged to the Blackburn family.

Blackburn is a shareholder of The New York Times, so he is one of them.

And now, Milo Blackburn is marrying Rockefeller.

Rockefeller has always been a benefactor of the Salzberg family.

With these two levels of relationships, Salzberg is naturally very close to Milo.

Even the reason why Milo came to the party tonight was because of little Arthur.

Hearing little Arthur's caring words, Milo smiled slightly and followed him to the food area.

Two long tables were connected and filled with pastries, fruit salads, meat and seafood. The food was very delicate and beautiful, and the portions were large.

After all, those invited tonight are all successful people in their respective industries. Most of them are people who have proven themselves in society, and most of them are not particular about details and eat whenever they want.

Milo picked up a plate and picked up some cakes and roast meats, while talking to Arthur, "Mr. Salzberg, is Michael Pulitzer here?"

"Not yet, but he will definitely come tonight. After all, it's you, the super writer, super director and super financier, who wants to meet him." Arthur Jr. said with a smile.

Milo nodded and slowly ate his food. Arthur thought for a moment and then spoke again, "Mr. Blackburn, I really can't understand why you would be interested in a newspaper that has been closed for sixty years. If it's because of Pulitzer, then it would be useless even if you bought the entire Pulitzer Company."

"The Pulitzer Prize is now completely decided by Columbia University. The Pulitzer family has at most a little influence, but it cannot decide where the Pulitzer Prize goes."

Arthur's voice was sincere, and Milo nodded. Then he said, "Thank you very much for your advice, Mr. Salzberg. I will never forget your help."

"It's just a small favor, not much help," said little Arthur with a smile.

The latest novel is published first on Liu9shuba!

A few days ago, little Arthur, who was doing well in the office, suddenly received a call from Milo.

Milo called Arthur Jr. and asked if he could ask the Pulitzer family for him.

He was interested in the copyright and trademark of The New York World held by the Pulitzer family.

I would like to ask the Pulitzer family if they have any intention of selling it.

Little Arthur was very surprised at the time, wondering why this person suddenly wanted to buy a newspaper.

Then Salzberg remembered that Milo had set up a media company in Los Angeles.

As a newspaper boss, Arthur Jr. also heard that Milo was contacting Ted Turner.

Ted Turner owns Turner Broadcasting, the largest television network besides the four major ones.

Milo first approached the owner of the broadcasting company, then asked himself about the newspaper industry.

Arthur Jr. realized that Blackburn might be ready to move into the media industry, rather than just staying in the entertainment industry of movies and television.

Especially in the past two days, after he heard about the incident in U.S. News and World Report, he was even more certain of this.

The question is, even if he wanted to buy a newspaper, why would Milo be interested in a newspaper that had been closed for sixty years? After thinking about it, Arthur felt that what Milo was really interested in was Michael Pulitzer's Pulitzer Company.

This favor was easy to do; Milo just wanted him to contact the Pulitzer family.

Even if little Arthur is worried that he might become a competitor in the future and doesn't want to help, Milo can ask someone else for help.

Many people can do this, such as Disney and Murdoch of News Corporation.

He could even find a headhunting company, or Milo could approach the Pulitzer family himself.

So little Arthur took the initiative and was happy to help Milo with this small favor.

He even suggested that Milo come to the party tonight.

The banquet was announced several months ago.

Arthur Jr. said he could invite Michael Pulitzer, the current head of the Pulitzer family, to come.

When the time comes, Milo can just go to the banquet and have a private chat with Michael Pulitzer.

This is also the reason why Milo appeared at the banquet hosted by the newspaper tycoon tonight.

"Oh~ here he comes."

Little Arthur suddenly pointed to a gray-haired old man in the banquet hall and said, "Michael Pulitzer, the younger brother of Pulitzer III and the current ruler of the Pulitzer family."

He then said to Milo:

"I'll go up and talk to him first. You can go directly to him later, Mr. Blackburn. But I heard that apart from Michael Pulitzer, no one else in Pulitzer is interested in the newspaper industry. So he might take the initiative to contact you later."

Milo nodded and thanked little Arthur.

Little Arthur smiled at him, holding a red wine glass in his hand, took big steps and laughed heartily to greet Michael Pulitzer.

Milo had just finished eating a few pieces of barbecue and was feeling a little greasy.

I saw the fruit salad area on the left and thought about having some fruit salad to relieve the greasiness.

Just as he reached the fruit salad section, he smelled a scent of perfume coming from behind him, and Milo instinctively turned around and looked back.

"Wow, Milo, I didn't expect to see you here!" a sweet female voice said in surprise.

"Hehe, hello, Nicole. Wow, you look so stunning tonight!"

When Milo saw that it was Nicole Kidman, he couldn't help but be amazed by the Australian goddess who appeared in a gorgeous dress in front of him, and he praised her generously.

Tonight, Nicole Kidman wore a black sequined one-shoulder tight dress, which made her skin look even whiter.

Her long golden hair was combed neatly and tied behind her head. A pair of platinum earrings with black gemstones hung low. Her left shoulder and collarbone were exposed, which was very sexy. She was not wearing stockings, and her slender, glowing white legs were very attractive. She was wearing a pair of black pointed high heels with seven-quarter heels, which made her figure look taller. She was simply stunningly beautiful.

"Haha, thank you very much for your compliment. My dear Milo, I am so happy to see you tonight!"

There was an obvious hint of resentment in Nicole's happy tone.

It was as if she was complaining about someone who had tricked her, a married woman, into bed and then stopped contacting her.

Milo's response was also very direct. She ignored the female companion who had just walked over to Nicole and smiled and said, "Hey, me too. Maybe we can go for a drink after the party is over?"
