Whether Lehman Brothers followed suit or not, it did not affect Simon's operation in the stock index futures market. Noah Scott made a special trip from Chicago to repair the relationship, and Simon naturally would not refuse.

In this country, if Simon wants to go further, it is impossible to get rid of the connection with investment banks. Although he still won't trust Noah Scott and Lehman Brothers too much, the information Noah Scott just revealed seems sincere compared with other investment banks that are still silent.

After dinner, Simon and Noah Scott separated and returned to the Plaza Hotel just after 8 p.m.

In the presidential suite on the top floor of the Plaza Hotel.

Janet hung their coats on the hanger, went to the study, saw that the man had sat down by the window with his usual hardcover notebook, leaned over to support on the back of the sofa and asked, "Simon, what are you going to do?"

Simon holds a still hand bound 16 open notebook, draws lines on white paper with a pencil, and carelessly fills in notes.

Madonna's new album, a dance style album called you can dance, will go on sale next month. Simon had already handed over a song that fits the style of the album. At this time is writing, but another song, Simon intends to be "vulgar novel" ending song.

However, Simon's mind can't be on these. He just wants to find something in his hand for a while.

Despite Noah Scott's warning that his operation in the stock index futures market has been exposed, Simon finds that he has no way to prevent it from being exposed.

Hearing Janet's question, Simon turned to the woman and said, "I can't do anything. Simon westero is going to be famous again."

Janet smiles, turns around the sofa and sits askew beside Simon.

In front of them is the floor glass window overlooking the whole Central Park. At this time, the window is dark, and only the buildings on both sides of the park are bright.

Holding the man's arm and watching him fill in the notes on the score, a moment later, Janet said, "in fact, there's nothing wrong with exposure. You didn't do anything illegal."

Simon shook his head and said, "a 19-year-old earns more than a billion dollars in just a few months. Isn't that illegal enough?"

"Ha ha, it only means that my little man is so good," Janet came up to Simon and gave him a kiss on the face. She changed the topic and said, "what do you think of the houses I saw today?"

Simon tried to get rid of his inner powerlessness as much as he could, and then Janet said, "it's not so good."

Janet looked forward to it and said, "I think the penthouse building on 68th street is good. It has a three-story structure with a total area of more than 1200 square meters and faces the Central Park. Although the price of $15 million is a bit high, it's a house on Fifth Avenue. It will definitely appreciate in the future. Even if you don't like the baroque style of the interior, we can redecorate it. "

Simon followed Janet's description and recalled the Fifth Avenue luxury apartment he had seen during the day.

The top three floors of the 15 storey light gray building built in the 1950s, with a total of 26 rooms, 3 halls, 2 kitchens, 6 bedrooms and 7 bathrooms, with gymnasium, wine cellar, private projection hall and other facilities, noticed that Janet unconsciously changed the metric measurement, Simon said with a smile: "call the real estate agent tomorrow, and we'll buy this one."

In the era before Simon's rebirth, the price of such an upper east side apartment close to Central Park was absolutely easy to exceed 100 million yuan.

Fifteen million dollars. Simon doesn't think it's expensive at all.

Of course, at the present time in 1987, US $15 million is absolutely a sky high price. Especially in the case of the recent collapse of the North American stock market, the US property market will also plummet. In Simon's memory, two years later, the famous Empire State Building sold for only $42 million.

Janet saw Simon agreed, but her face showed a little hesitation, and said, "if you don't like it, let's have a look."

"Buy it," Simon said, turning to kiss the woman's face. "In fact, I don't like the whole Manhattan house very much. Since I want to buy it, one of us must be satisfied."

Janet flashed a few eyes: "what kind of house do you like?"

"You know, modern, minimalist, and at the top. I wish I were standing by the window and all the other buildings in my field of vision were under my feet, "Simon said. Suddenly, his heart moved. He turned the notebook page in his hand, picked up his pencil and drew it quickly. He said slowly," probably, that's it. "

Janet curiously came over and waited patiently for a while before she saw a building that should be made of glass fiber reinforced plastics appear on the manuscript.

The overall shape of the building is conical, but the top floors show a platform. Later, Simon also marked a letter on the side. At first, it seemed to be "a". Well, it should not be finished, but it soon changed to "W"."W" obviously stands for "Westeros".

Westero building.

Simon's painting skills can be seen from the original sub shot draft of "Lola Run". A few minutes later, some high-rise buildings were sketched around the building. A building standing high on Manhattan Island, much higher than the Empire State Building, appeared on the paper.

When Simon finished painting, Janet couldn't help but take his notebook directly, blinked a few eyes and pointed to the platform at the top of the building: "this, what is it?"

Simon explained, "helipad."

"Well," Janet said, pausing, "how tall is it?"

"If I don't want to see the Empire State building outside my bedroom," Simon thought, "it should be more than 500 meters."

Janet had a little fantasy about living in the top floor apartment of a building over 500 meters high. She slowly turned to Simon and said, "can this really be built?"

"Now that I've made more than one billion dollars in more than five months, it's no problem to build another building," Simon said. After thinking for a moment, he said, "start to prepare now, maybe we can start construction in three years. Such a building, including all the expenses of land and so on, 500 million dollars should be enough. Of course, the cost of various internal facilities must also be very large, and there will be maintenance costs in the future. But as long as it can be built, it won't matter if it costs a billion dollars. "

Janet's expression was still a little dull. She handed the notebook back to Simon, put her arm around the man, rubbed it like a kitten, and said, "little bastard, I want to live in now."

Simon took a pencil and carefully drew the letter "W" which had just been temporarily changed. Fortunately, he didn't finish drawing "a", otherwise the avenger building would be exposed. In my memory, the avenger building in Marvel's movie universe series is only about the same height as the Empire State building. However, since it was to be built, Simon naturally didn't plan to go step by step.

After drawing a few strokes again, Simon listened to Janet's words, pointed to the part above the apron on the top of the building, and said, "by then, all the top ten floors will be the Westeros."

"Mm-hmm," Jennie said with a few small heads, "I'll change my husband's surname in the future."

Simon smiles, side head in the woman's head arrived, joked: "just to live in a big house, too spineless."

"Hehe," Jeanette said with a smile, pointing below the platform, "what about these?"

"Since it's the westero building," Simon said, "it should be the headquarters of the westero company. Of course, it must be carefully planned. These need to be handed over to professionals."

Janet added, "where are you going to build this house?"

Simon pointed to the right side of the window and said, "it's a good corner. If Fifth Avenue doesn't work, move east and build it next to Madison Avenue, so that you still have central park at your feet."

After a few words of discussion, Janet turned back and asked, "in that case, little bastard, are we still buying a house?

"Of course, where else?" Simon nodded. "That's the one you just said. The building in the painting is planned for a few years and built for another few years. Maybe, when we move in, it will be seven or eight years later. We will definitely come to New York frequently in the future. It's impossible for us to have no house here for seven or eight years. "

"Then I'll try to hold down the price. It's estimated that I can win it for 12 million dollars. Now that the stock market has collapsed, house prices are bound to plummet. 15 million is the price before the crash, "Janet said, adding," little bastard, when the building on the painting is completed, are you going to move to New York? "

"Of course, you can live wherever you want. In the future, we'll have a private jet, even if we fly from New York to Los Angeles every day. "

Janet patted Simon gently and said with a smile, "I don't want to do this."

Simon said, "I'll go to work every day and you'll be a housewife."

Janet immediately shook her head again. "No, I'm not going to be a housewife."

Simon nodded without any position: "well, you can do whatever you want."

After chatting for a while, Janet looked at the painting in front of Simon again and said, "little bastard, in fact, I still think it's impossible."

"All you have to do is watch me build it," Simon said, adding, "but then you have to work hard to make money."

"Who just said that it's illegal to earn more than one billion dollars at the age of 19."

Simon thought about it and said, "now that it's known by many people, we don't have to cover it up any more. Maybe, it's also a good thing."

Before that, Simon did a lot of things, always subconsciously making his behavior look less conspicuous. Although the results are often some dazzling, but he did not give up this kind of behavior may be some stealers.Now, if the operation of the stock index futures market is exposed, Simon will do something unexpected next, and he will no longer appear so shocking.

You know, one billion dollars is still very valuable in this era.

Forbes magazine just started counting the global rich list a few years ago. According to this year's latest list, the richest families in the world are only those in the Middle East. Moreover, there are only three families with wealth of more than 10 billion US dollars. The wealth of the Newhouse family, the fourth largest media family, fell to US $8.7 billion, and the threshold of the top ten in the global rich list was only US $5.4 billion.

Even excluding all taxes, Simon is now able to squeeze into the Forbes Global rich list of 100.

In 1987, the global population officially exceeded 5 billion. Simon, as the richest 100 of these 5 billion people, can imagine that he is definitely the top group of people at the top of the pyramid.

In a short period of one year, 18-year-old young people, from a state of poverty, suddenly crowded into the list of 100 richest people in the world. As long as this state is accepted by the outside world, Simon will not be too abrupt to do anything beyond people's imagination.

After staying in New York for another day, Simon returned to Los Angeles again, but Janet stayed in New York and kept busy with the house.

On October 30, the day Simon returned to Los Angeles, the box office of the first week of "death is coming" has also been released, with a revenue of 18.16 million US dollars in seven days. It is generally predicted that the final North American box office of the film will exceed 60 million US dollars, both inside Fox and outside media.

Although it can't be compared with "Lola Run" and "Butterfly Effect", in one year, there are two top ten North American box office movies and one top 15 North American box office movie. Simon's reputation as a box office filmmaker has been consolidated.

In his spare time in New York, Simon also finished the script of instinct. When he returned to Los Angeles, he handed the script to Jonathan Friedman and asked his agent and Amy to negotiate with Fox for a new film.

Three films in a row have been successful. This time, Simon will fight for more benefits.

On the other hand, after Noah Scott visited Simon in person that day, the two sides still kept in touch in the following days, and Simon could hear the latest news about himself on Wall Street from time to time.

So until November, although it had been expected, things broke out and Simon was caught off guard.

The fuse is on the side of Lehman Brothers, but also with Simon has been quite concerned about Soros.

As a futures broker of quantum fund, in the sell-off on October 22, the S & P 500 index fell sharply due to the early disclosure of information, so Soros suffered a heavy loss. After a period of deliberation, Soros formally took Lehman Brothers to court, and also involved Simon.
