Chapter 55 Waiting for others to jump into the pit



Chapter 55 Waiting for others to jump into the pit

As time goes by, the Christmas atmosphere gradually envelops the entire United States.

The San Francisco Bay Area, which does not have many tall buildings, often does not present its perfect Christmas scenery until the night when the colorful lights are lit.

On the afternoon of December 20th, Milo and three well-dressed men walked out of a high-end restaurant.

They hugged each other warmly and said goodbye.

"Hey, Gavin, the oysters in this restaurant are really well made, just like you said. But the clams in Boston are not bad either. Next time you go to Boston, I'll treat you to clam chowder."

"Jerry, no, no, I'm afraid I can't stay here on Christmas. You know, Christmas Eve is the day when all the Lambs of the Lord gather together, and I need to go back to Massachusetts, wherever I am."

“Hey, Paul. Say hi to Nancy for me and thank her so much for helping me with those companies. Again, I’d do the same thing if I were in Massachusetts!”

"goodbye!"

Watching the car go away, Milo let out a breath with a slightly tired look.

He walked to the car, opened the door, got in, and said to David, who was the driver today, "Wait a moment, I'll make a call."

"Grandfather, I just met with Brown, Newsom, and Pelosi. Honestly, I think Edward and his team are not doing a good job. The whole thing gives me a sense of division. Unlike us and others, although we have internal conflicts, we can still speak with one voice when speaking to the outside world."

"Not enough foundation? Maybe. Their history is indeed very short. But the two sides did not choose to merge, or the fusion was very poor, so I still think they did a very bad job."

"Yeah, they are all old foxes. No one will express their opinions, but I don't want them to help. They just need to do their best not to help either side."

"Huh? Why would I be afraid? It was just a finger of the monster. If it was a complete monster, I might as well give in. But if I am afraid of a finger, I might as well go back to Plymouth and be the Lord's shepherd."

"That's all. I will be back before Christmas Eve. Good afternoon. Goodbye, Grandfather."

Milo hung up the phone with an expectant look on his face, "Hey, the pit has been dug. It depends on whether he will jump into it."

Closing his eyes and lying in the trunk, Milo re-walked the experience in his mind.

After confirming that most of the places have been completed by yourself.

He stroked his chin and opened his eyes. "David, let's go. Go back to the hotel and pack up. We'll go back to Los Angeles tonight. We've been in the Bay Area long enough."

David responded, picked up the walkie-talkie, pressed a button, and said a few words.

Then several Cadillac sedans that looked exactly like the one Milo was riding in drove over.

Several cars shuffled their order and exchanged positions before driving onto the main road toward the InterContinental Hotel San Francisco.

evening.

Los Angeles International Airport.

After a short flight of less than two hours, Milo led Kenny, David and others out of the business channel.

Wendy was already waiting outside the airport lobby with several business cars.

In the car, Milo looked at the detailed list of royalties that had recently been transferred into the copyright company's account, and a smile appeared on the corner of his mouth.

To be honest, Milo is really short of money right now.

He invested in Internet companies and made movies. The money his family gave him was not enough to spend.

Although he can mortgage some of the Internet company's stocks.

But this money also needs to be paid with interest, and the interest rate is very high.

The family is also in need of money now.

Dad is in his rising period, and sister-in-law Haley is also seeking to move to Washington.

Besides, to be honest, the family doesn't have much cash flow.

Blackburn's background and wealth are mainly reflected in the lands spread across the thirteen states of old North America.

These lands are indeed valuable, and many of them are located in city centers or important locations.

But these lands are ancestral property and no one dares to sell them casually.

Moreover, many of the lands are occupied by churches. If they are sold, Blackburn's influence on the church may also be reduced.

This is Blackburn's core.

It was thanks to his influence on the church and various military chaplains across the United States that Blackburn was able to join the upper echelon of the Boston financial group.

Don't mess around in this area.

Still need to make money.

As of now, "Angels and Demons" has not been released yet and "Shakespeare in Love" is still being filmed.

If you want to make money from the movie industry, you have to wait until at least after the New Year.

Currently, the only source of money for him is the company that holds the copyright of "The Da Vinci Code".

Although each transaction will not amount to millions, the important thing is to make a steady income over the long term.

Adding up the copyright fees and royalties, the income over the past few months is almost tens of millions of dollars.

In the United States, being a best-selling author is really lucrative! Thinking of the blunder that happened in London.

Milo felt that he should also "create" a little wizard.

In addition to novels and movies, other cash cow projects should also be developed.

If the cash flow is not enough, then in the surging tide of the Internet, your voice will be quickly reduced.

So what track should be opened up next?

Selling movie scripts is not an option. The Hollywood Writers Guild has countless scripts on file.

Some are currently being filmed, but their scripts may have been archived in the Writers Guild for more than a decade.

There is absolutely no such thing as making tens of millions of dollars just by selling scripts and being crazily sought after by Hollywood companies.

A truly popular script must be tailor-made by a screenwriter who has created hit movies, and it must also be favored by film companies and directors.

The key point is that for this kind of script, the price is just like that.

The good ones cost hundreds of thousands, and the best ones cost millions of dollars.

Even if Milo copied out all the scripts in his mind.

Even though all of these scripts have not yet been archived by the Writers Guild, they can all be sold for a good price.

It is estimated that it can only be sold for tens of millions to hundreds of millions of dollars.

The latest novel is published first on Liu9shuba!

The problem is that this work is extremely complicated.

Even if we have computers that can type now, it will probably take half a year to a year to develop it.

Not to mention making movies, most of Milo's cash flow now depends on these two movies.

Scratching his head, Milo suddenly felt a little envious of those seniors who had financial talents or cheat codes after rebirth and could make money in the financial market.

Especially here in the United States, finance is at the top of everything.

In terms of finance, Milo only vaguely remembered the Southeast Asian financial crisis a year or two later.

There will also be financial and currency crises in countries such as South Korea, Russia, and the Crying Country three years later.

There were also major events such as the Nasdaq bubble in 2000 and the century's super financial crisis in 2008.

He felt a little regretful if he were reborn in 1990.

That's just cutting some neon leeks and eating some red bear meat, which is enough to make me fat now.

Unfortunately not.

Although there will be major financial events in the next few years, as long as he gets involved, he should be able to reap the benefits given his background.

But if you want him to do it personally, I'm sorry, no matter if he is Milo who originally studied theology or the typist who came from the Chinese Xia Dynasty.

There is no such ability.

Fortunately, Milo is the same as his uncle.

Both are very self-aware and willing to listen to the opinions of those around them.

Both of them have good grandfathers, good fathers, good relatives, and strong families to rely on.

Then... things are simple.

With the support of his family and his good father, my uncle was able to become the President of the United States.

Then, with the support of my family and a bunch of good relatives, there is no reason why I can't be the stock god on Capitol Hill, right?

What's more, compared to those Capitol Hill stock gods, at least I still remember so many important financial nodes!

Thinking of this, Milo said to Wendy: "Wendy, I'll give you a new job."

Wendy: “…”

The fat man thought, again? Now he wants to be the general manager of a film company and the producer of the film.

At the same time, he has to monitor and manage a bunch of Internet companies, and help Milo with various chores.

Even care about Milo's physical condition.

In short, Wendy has to pay attention to everything around Milo, no matter how big or small.

Wendy now misses the old Milo a little.

Milo didn’t have so much to do in the past!

At that time, all I had to do every day was find beauties for Milo, throw parties, and occasionally deal with some minor troubles caused by Milo.

Unlike now, Wendy has been busy and losing weight like crazy in the past few months.

He used to be a fat man, 1.8 meters tall and weighing 270 pounds.

His weight has now dropped to around 230 pounds, and is still visibly falling.

Although I am still fat, I am no longer the oval-shaped fat I used to be.

Why……

Sighing inwardly, Wendy immediately responded: "No problem, go ahead."

"It's like this, I want to start a new company..."
