Chapter 178 The Man All the She-Wolves Want to Steal

It's the end of the year and the first snow has already fallen in Boston.

The temperature in New York also dropped below zero.

Here in Los Angeles, it rains occasionally.

At other times, the sun is still everywhere, and the average temperature is around 9-19 degrees.

Hollywood, at the West Coast headquarters of Paladin Media Group.

Sitting in a comfortable luxury chair, Milo took the briefing from Tori, a work assistant who had her hair tied up in a bun, side bangs on her forehead, a black suit with a large white lapel shirt underneath, and a proud bust that allowed her to vaguely see the huge ravines between the mountains.

Tori is his new assistant at work.

It's not that he's unhappy with Monica or Megan, but because both Megan and Monica got promoted.

Megan was arranged by Milo to work at Universal Music.

Milo's secretarial team also began to undergo a renewal and upgrade.

Monica became the nominal head of the secretarial team and also served as Milo's personal assistant.

Tori and another female secretary named Gina became Milo's assistants.

Replace Megan's job.

Unlike Monica's personal assistant, a work assistant needs to have very strong working abilities.

Many times, they had to travel on business to inspect the companies under Milo's name on his behalf.

So Milo didn't have high requirements for their beauty.

What he requires more is loyalty and work ability.

Tori and Gina were both from New England and attended Harvard University.

In terms of loyalty, at least the roots are trustworthy.

"Boss, Boeing called and invited you to visit their company and take a look at the progress and effect of your private jet modification."

"On the evening of the 10th, Mr. Murdoch invites you to a charity dinner in Beverly Hills, where Democratic presidential candidate Bob Dole will also attend."

"The Oscar organizers called to ask if you are willing to be the award presenter."

"Harvard Publishing called again, hoping that you would consider handing over the third Harry Potter book to them as soon as possible. The total sales of your two Harry Potter books in 95 countries have reached 18 million copies."

Listening to Tori's report on important matters, Milo couldn't help but narrow his eyes slightly and tapped his fingers on the armrest of the chair.

He still had to go despite Murdoch's invitation.

After all, the previous cooperation was very pleasant, even though I now have my own media group.

But in many cases, Paladin Media can also cooperate with News Corporation.

Many times, a large media group cannot cover everything with one hand.

This is when you need the help of your friends.

Making as many friends as possible has always been Milo's motto.

Therefore, as long as there is no direct conflict of interest, Milo will not deliberately destroy the relationship between the two parties even if it is a potential competitor.

So is Murdoch, so is Redstone, and so is Disney's Mickey Mouse Ashton.

Even Time Warner, which recently competed for TBS, is still hello to you.

It looks very harmonious.

But Murdoch actually invited Bob Dole, which is a problem.

This old Australian guy supports the Elephant Party this year.

Or it should be said that from now on, News Corporation's position will be more inclined towards the Elephant Party.

This is actually a bit helpless for Murdoch.

Before Milo appeared, most other media groups in the United States tended to support the Donald Trump Party.

Because the policies of the Donkey Party are naturally more in line with the media industry.

Murdoch, who rose to prominence later, had no choice but to join someone.

Everyone else joined the Donkey Party, and since they thought he was a rare commodity, he joined the Elephant Party.

Milo didn't know Bob Dole, but he knew he wouldn't be able to succeed this year.

So...he will still go.

Not for Murdoch's sake.

Instead, Milo believed that he also needed to express his attitude to the outside world and the Elephant Party.

That is, even though Milo's father is a donkey party, many of his friends are also donkey parties.

But his grandfather was a member of the Elephant Party, and his grandfather-in-law was also a member of the Elephant Party.

So he, Milo Blackburn, can lean towards the Donkey Party and the Elephant Party at the same time.

He has the nature of a donkey and an elephant, and he will help whoever gives him the most benefits.

Milo felt that he had to make this position clear.

As for the question of private jets and the Oscars, it’s not too late to watch it after the Chinese New Year.

Boeing's actual delivery time is estimated to be the end of next year or even the beginning of the year after.

Oscar invited him last year.

But at that time, they gave Milo the most ordinary invitation.

It means inviting him to go in and watch the award ceremony. Many people are willing to spend tens of thousands or even hundreds of thousands of US dollars to get that kind of invitation.

This year is different again.

"Angels and Demons" was released in 1996, and "Shakespeare in Love" was also released this year.

"The Da Vinci Code", which was released during the Christmas season, is also a movie of this year.

For these three films, he served as director, producer, screenwriter and original author.

The key is that he is very famous, so he will definitely receive an Oscar award this year.

Best Director is unlikely.

So it’s either an award related to the script or an award related to the producer.

Also because of his fame, the Oscars wanted him to be the guest of honor while receiving the award.

Simply put, Oscar also wants to take advantage of the fame of the world's tenth richest man and the most famous person in the United States.

"Boss, coffee." While he was thinking, Monica's sweet voice sounded in his ears. He reached out to take the white porcelain coffee cup, smelled the rich aroma, picked it up and took a sip, smacked his lips, and Milo nodded with satisfaction.

Monica's professionalism and work ability may not be as strong as Megan, Tori and Gina.

But she is beautiful, has a good figure and a good temperament!

And before she became his secretary, she was his mistress.

In the workplace, it is easiest for a boss and a secretary or assistant to develop a relationship after working together for a long time.

After all, as a successful person, both wealth and temperament are very attractive.

Young girls are also extremely easily attracted, and this is common all over the world.

This is the situation in China now.

In the tide of reform, bosses would be embarrassed to call themselves successful businessmen if they did not bring a female secretary with them when they went out.

However, due to the strong feminist rights in China, many female secretaries have become the masters of the business, snatching the bosses away from some of their wives, which has also seriously affected the reputation of female secretaries.

On the contrary, in the feudal country of Japan, the relationship between bosses and female secretaries has always been semi-public, and the proportion of relationships occurring is very high.

But they rarely cause any trouble that would cause a fall-out.

There are even many bosses who pass away. After the female secretaries get married and have children, they will go to pay tribute to their former bosses on their death anniversary every year.

Some even brought their husbands and children to worship, and then people discovered that their children looked very much like their deceased bosses.

In the United States, it is actually quite rare for bosses to sleep with their secretaries.

Instead, female secretaries in their 40s and 50s are the most popular.

Because of sound laws and profit-seeking lawyers, many incompetent bosses are unwilling to be sued for sexual harassment by their female secretaries or female employees.

Once convicted, not only will it be a huge blow to the company's reputation, but the company will also have to pay huge compensation.

Rather than eating the female secretary who may be poisoned at any time.

Might as well make a phone call and ask for advanced service.

No matter what color or flavor of chocolate you want, you can enjoy it to your heart's content as long as you spend a little money.

She can wear the secretary's clothes and be fucked by you on the office desk.

You can also have a different dish every day, which is what Americans like.

Even Milo's father, Milo, knew that Joseph had done this.

To be honest, Milo himself knows the value of Monica, the beautiful assistant.

Many people are tacitly aware of this.

Even Monica, she was the first woman Ariana knew about Milo.

Ariana is well aware of the role Monica plays around Milo.

In the upper class society, there is no man who doesn't have a few mistresses.

The most important reason why she chose to ignore it was that Monica was within her control and posed no threat to her at all. She had seen too many such things since she was a child.

No man with great wealth and power will be content! Being naive, willful, and uncompromising will only lead to suffering.

Reality is not a fairy tale. She doesn't understand the principle that it is better to loosen than to block. Her father and grandfather will teach her to understand it.

They know their kind of family better than anyone else.

Instead of letting your husband go out and find some messy woman, it is better to keep one or two people who know you well around you.

Some people may think that this is a distorted view of the world.

But this is the reality, look at how loving Prince William and Princess Kate are.

But she still couldn't resist Prince William, so he flew halfway around the world to the United States to secretly meet his woman outside.

Even Princess Kate was introduced to him by his ex-girlfriend and bed partner.

Foreign media gave him a nickname prefix, called habitual cheating.

The Queen's husband, Prince Philip, had many women and illegitimate children, so the Queen, who could no longer tolerate this, beat him up and left him with a black eye.

During Kate Middleton's pre-marital training before marrying into the royal family, royal officials pointed out that William might cheat after marriage.

I'm afraid it's not just one person. Kate must learn to be patient.

"Put on a smile and accept the facts," these are Kate's exact words.

The Queen's adviser even told Kate directly: "Dear, it's not a question of whether he will cheat, but when he will start cheating. You'd better turn a blind eye."

Although Kate was furious about William's infidelity, in order to become a "royal bride", she had to turn a blind eye and acquiesce to this "rule of the upper class."

Well, anyway, Milo was quite satisfied with the training of Monica, the canary.

Milo started his normal work only after Monica left the office.

Dealing with various briefings and documents. There was no other way, even if Milo wanted to be lazy, these tasks were necessary.

Don't think that big companies with excellent management teams can sit back and relax, and just work with secretaries, drink coffee and play golf every day.

Many times, just signing the documents is enough to get these big bosses in trouble.

If you really want to let yourself go, haha, Zhang Xiyang from a certain fox is a living example.

From being a powerful Internet giant, he became a joke.

Moreover, several of Milo’s awesome companies were acquired.

Even if he can't spend all his time on these companies.

Then you must also understand the company's daily operations.

This is also his think tank, which has expanded from a few people to more than a dozen people.

Now it has simply become the Blackburn Foundation, and it seems to be expanding into a think tank company.

Around half past eleven, Monica came in to notify us.

Milo had just finished dealing with the things at hand.

I made a phone call to let Wendy know.

Then he asked Jolie and Blanchett, who were actually waiting nearby, to come over.

Recently, I have been preparing to shoot The Lord of the Rings series.

The latest novel is published first on Liu9shuba!

Minogue has been promoting the two and has been taking them around Los Angeles.

Helped them make the headlines of countless newspapers.

The group of four went out and walked into a Michelin French restaurant while being chased by paparazzi.

French food is indeed beautifully prepared, and each dish looks great, but the portions are a bit too little for Milo. He has a good appetite, so he ordered two sets of meals.

After finishing lunch, when the four walked out of the restaurant, they were surrounded by paparazzi who were waiting outside.

"Milo, Milo, after acquiring MCA and taking over, will you continue to acquire it next?"

"Mr. Blackburn, what is your relationship with Miss Delpy and Miss Blanchett? Who do you prefer, Nicole Kidman or Jennifer Connelly?"

"It's been reported that Julie and Kate moved into your Beverly Hills villa last year. What's your relationship?"

“…”

Milo had a cold face and looked calmly at the paparazzi who were threatening him.

I hear all kinds of questions that have no bottom line, and many of them are even obviously provocative.

The bodyguards blocked the crowd with deadly looks, helping Milo to clear a path, and the group got into the car and left.

"That's about the same."

When they got in the car, Milo smiled at Jolie and Blanchett beside him. He said with a smile: "Next time, we will wait until the movie is finished and about to be released before we have another round. Oh, I will also visit you on the set in the meantime."

Jolie smiled sweetly at him, and Blanchett, still lying on his knees, took deeper bites.

Monica, who was sitting in the secretary's small chair, looked at the Australian woman with a little surprise.

This is so deep?

I haven't seen you for a few months, but you've improved a lot.

Now they can all go in.

"If this doesn't end, I'm going to think I'm the hottest star in Hollywood now."

Jolie was not surprised by Blanchett's kung fu, she replied to Milo.

She and Blanchett have been in the media these days.

It is ten thousand times more than all their past exposures combined.

Even a respectable newspaper like The New York Times published their article the day before yesterday.

The key is still the front page headlines.

Although in that video, they only existed as Milo's background and their names were only mentioned twice.

Most of it is about Milo and his media empire.

But that was the front page headline of the New York Times. How many people in Hollywood could get that?

How many Oscar-winning actors and actresses have never made the front page of the New York Times in their entire lives?

To be honest, Julie knows the benefits of increased exposure better than anyone.

Or it should be said that those who want to get into this circle and have been in this circle know the benefits of exposure.

Just look at Gisele Bundchen, who later dated Leo.

Even after breaking up, they are still the targets of paparazzi.

As long as readers buy it, the news reported can increase sales.

Whether you like it or hate it, the paparazzi will not let it go. To put it bluntly, this is popularity.

Why does Leo always have success in dating supermodels?

Even though everyone knows that it usually doesn't last more than a year, some even last a day.

Those supermodels still flock to it.

Because they have the success story of Gisele Bundchen in front of them, isn't it just about sleeping with him?

That, in the world of supermodels, is no different than smoking a few cigarettes.

Once a person gets benefits because of being shameless, he will do it a second time, a third time, until he loses all his face.

For those who are inside the world of fame and fortune or those who are still outside and want to get in.

The bottom line is meant to be constantly broken, this is reality.

It is also a necessary skill to survive in the fierce competition.

Like Blanchett, she could only eat one head at first.

Now? Even Monica was a little surprised when she saw it.

This proves that Blanchett is very motivated, just like Jolie.

If you want material enjoyment, there is material enjoyment; if you want physical enjoyment, there is physical enjoyment.

If you want performance opportunities, you have them; if you want exposure, you have more exposure than anyone else.

I wonder how many she-wolves in Hollywood would be vying for a man like this.

In the afternoon, when the sun is not so strong.

Los Angeles.

Riviera Country Club.

Riviera Country Club is a prestigious golf course in the Los Angeles area.

"You want me to help you get some people working for the DEA?"

On the golf course, March Mark Cabrera, head of the Los Angeles area DEA, hit the ball out with a golf club.

Hector's brother, March, looked back at Milo, "Don't tell me, Milo, you want to start an armed rebellion in Los Angeles."

Milo: “…”

"Fuck! Come on, March. I rebel?"

"Who should I rebel against, who should I revolt against? Rebel against America, and then revolt in California?"

"Hahaha, just kidding."

March Cabrera laughed and waved his hand, indicating that it was Milo's turn to play.

Milo followed him onto the golf cart and headed to the next hitting spot.

In the car, March asked softly, "I'm really curious why you want to put your people in the DEA. You know, the DEA is not a good job."

DEA stands for the Drug Enforcement Administration, which is the abbreviation of this organization.

It is affiliated with the U.S. Department of Justice and has the same investigative powers and jurisdiction as FBI.

And it was tasked with coordinating and tracking down the U.S. laundry detergent investigation abroad.

It was Milo who first got Robert Jr. involved because he called March.

“If I said I was concerned about the spread of laundry detergent in Los Angeles, you probably wouldn’t believe me.”

Milo admitted: "But if I say that I am worried about my own personal safety, I wonder if you will believe me? I hope that there is a rapid response armed force in the Los Angeles area that can legitimately have heavy firepower to support me. I don't have much friendship with the National Guard here, so, you know."

Machi said he didn't understand and was speechless.

If you are worried about your personal safety, then just strengthen your personal security and get more bodyguards.

Is it necessary to donate to the police and then try to put your own people in the DEA? March didn't believe it at all.

But he hesitated, considering whether to help Milo.

Cabrera has always been an ally of Blackburn, and a close one at that.

But later on, Milo messed around with him and the relationship between the two became estranged for a few years.

But as Milo rose to prominence, Cabrera and Blackburn's relationship began to return to normal.

Moreover, Milo has a very good relationship with his younger brother Hector, and he is also the godfather of Hector's daughter who was just born not long ago.

More importantly, the rise of Milo and the Blackburn family was too obvious.

It was such a small request that March knew he couldn't refuse.

Although he thought it was outrageous, he nodded.

"Okay. Now that you've said that, what else can I say?"

March watched as Milo stood in front of the golf ball and began to swing for the strike.

He said, "Send your people to me. I will arrange for them to be stationed at the DEA near Beverly Hills. You usually stay near Beverly Hills in Los Angeles..."

Bang--

There was a clear sound, and the golf ball flew into the sky. March and Milo fell silent.

The two shielded their eyes with their hands and watched the ball streak through the sky.

Look at the golf ball flying a beautiful arc in the endless blue sky.

Finally, it fell very accurately into the hole in the distance.

"Beautiful! Birdie!" March smiled and clapped.

"Haha, this is also my first time to hit a birdie, I'm lucky."

Milo laughed and handed the club to David, who was acting as a caddy nearby.

"Thank you, Madge. Thank you very much."

"You are like a brother to me. I still remember when I was a child, I fell into the water at the edge of Moss Creek. I couldn't swim at that time."

"Paladin wasn't there at the time, and you jumped into the water to save me. You choked on water several times."

"Anyway, thank you."

Hearing Milo talking about his childhood, March was stunned for a moment, then smiled: "I didn't expect you to still remember it. I had forgotten it myself. Yes, it was so good back then. Everyone was there, and we didn't have as many worries as we do now."

"You're troubled? Tell me, March. Maybe I can help you solve it."

Milo suddenly laughed and said, "For example, going back to work in the Five Star Building?"

March looked sharply at Milo.

This time, Cabrera's eldest son.

But there is a good chance that March Marc Cabrera will not be the heir.

He was really stunned.
