"Ten million dollars. It's a waste. My father founded Motorola in 1928, which has accumulated 60 years, and the galvans have a small fortune, but I still can't imagine how to spend 10 million dollars on a party, which is just as ridiculous as westrow's earning more than one billion dollars in just a few months. I think the first thing the Brady committee should investigate is Simon westero. If we find out this, we will probably understand the cause of last year's stock market crash. "

"Mr. Galvin, all the trading records of westero last year have been made public, and no one has found any irregularities."

"Jim, do you really believe the data in the media?"

"All I can say, Mr. Galvin, is that I didn't see another completely different piece of information coming out. Involving a huge amount of money of more than one billion dollars, I believe the federal investigation agency must have conducted a very careful audit of westero. If westero's deal last year was suspected of breaking the rules, he might be spending his 20th birthday in prison now. "

"I still don't think he's innocent. Otherwise, it would be the most tragic event in the history of federal finance. With so many people working hard all their lives, generations may not be able to accumulate too much wealth. That young man only took five months, can you imagine? Five month event, 1.6 billion dollars, "on the TV screen, Robert Galvin, chairman of Motorola, became more and more excited, gestured and said," then he began to act like a bastard who suddenly inherited a large legacy, wantonly bought airplanes and luxury houses, and spent 10 million dollars for a birthday party at one time. "

"Mr. Galvin, compared with many other celebrities, westero is very low-key. Moreover, the 20th birthday is worth celebrating. "

" westero can do something more meaningful. He is an orphan and everyone knows that. He grew up with the support of the federal social welfare system. But now, no one sees him trying to give back to the country, to the people who pay taxes to provide him with food, shelter and education. I heard that many charities tried to contact him, but none of them got a response. His indifference to charity is chilling

"Mr. Galvin, can I think you're just holding a grudge against westero for selling Motorola shares. As far as I know, Motorola's share price was $75 before Simon westero's sell-off, but it has been hovering around $60 in recent months. On the contrary, during this period, many of the companies held by westero have continued to rise. What's more, I've heard that you have been criticized by the board of directors of the company and may resign in the near future. "

"No, no, of course these are not true. Motorola's share price was indeed disturbed by the westero sell-off, but it did not affect our company's performance. Last year, Motorola's net profit exceeded $300 million. The stock price is only temporary, and it can create profits for shareholders, which is the essence of an enterprise. In addition, as for me, I am 66 years old. Before that, I was thinking about retirement, which has nothing to do with the sale of Westeros. "

“……”

“……”

In Malibu's mansion, it was noon the next day.

Janet walked into Simon's study and listened to an interview with Robert Galvin, chairman of Motorola, on the TV. When Simon hung up, she picked up the remote control and turned off the TV. She said, "do you like to hear people talk about you face to face?"

Since this morning, both mainstream media and tabloids have been using various eye-catching headlines to discuss Simon's birthday party last night.

Pat Kingsley called in the morning to report some media news that Simon needs to know. Finally, she said with a smile that she would be busy and calm down the impact of the party for a long time to come.

Simon sat behind his desk and wrote something in his notebook. He said with a smile, "it's very inspiring to know that there are still people in the world who hate you. Is your brother here

Janet leaned back on her desk, leaned forward slightly and said, "I'll see if you're done in a few minutes."

"It's done," Simon nodded and explained casually. "It's Amy's call. The American writers' Union launched a public strike this morning. This year's strike must be inevitable."

Today is February 23. Simon remembers that the writers' strike date is March 7. However, the strike of the American writers' union can't be decided by the WGA's top management at will. It also needs a member vote. As WGA members distributed in North America and even overseas need to send their votes by mail, this process usually takes two weeks.

Janet was obviously not very interested in listening. When Simon got up, he took the man's arm and was about to leave the study, but pointed to the TV on the wall and said, "just now, I think you should set up some charity funds, even if it's just a show. This kind of thing can't be avoided, otherwise more people will attack you with it in the future. "Because of some things in his memory, Simon was really indifferent to charity. At this time, he didn't oppose Janet's suggestion and said, "OK, just call Simon & Janet foundation. You can take care of it for me."

But Janet shook her head and said, "no, it should be Simon & Janet westrock."

"Well, the noun should be longer so that people can notice it."

"Ha ha, that's not what I mean."

They come to the kitchen of the villa talking and laughing, and just bring the ready lunch into the restaurant, the doorbell rings.

Simon and Janet went out to meet each other. Although they didn't have any special feeling in advance, when they met Janet's family, Simon was inevitably restrained.

Anthony Johnston looks more mature than his age. He wears a straight gray suit. He is the same height as Simon. He has a short beard on his face. Some features between his eyebrows clearly show that he is a family with Janet.

After hugging Janet, Anthony Johns gently shook hands with Simon, and then took out a gift to congratulate Simon on his 20th birthday: "I could have arrived yesterday, but my business partner in London had to postpone a deal until now. Happy birthday, Simon."

"Thank you, Tony. Let's go in. Lunch is ready."

The three of them walked towards the villa together, but Janet took the gift box from Simon's hand, took out the watch in the box, looked at it carefully, and then said with satisfaction: "it's not bad, Dad's collection. I thought you would buy a gift at the airport

Anthony Johnston listened to his sister's teasing, but said to Simon, "it should be a headache to get along with Jennie. She likes pranks so much."

Simon said with a smile, "it's OK."

Janet, however, was dissatisfied with Simon's ambiguous answer and said, "what's fair?"

"That's to say, I have headaches occasionally, not so often."

Janet grabbed Simon's arm discontentedly. "I'll give you a headache every day if you want to."

Although Neil Bennett and Ken Dixon had already got a lot of information about Simon and the personal relationship between Simon and Janet, Anthony Johnston was really relieved when he noticed the intimacy between his sister and the young man.

After a simple trimming, the three of them sat down in the dining room.

The atmosphere of lunch was very relaxed. We were just chatting about all kinds of trifles.

After lunch, Anthony Johnston offered to talk to Simon alone, and they went to the terrace by the cliff.

The mansion is located in the west of domay Point Park. Standing beside the balcony railings, you can see not only the beautiful sea view in front of you, but also the sharp corner not far from your left.

Anthony Johnston looked at the sharp corner of the cliff and said, "it's a good place to build a mansion."

Simon said with a smile, "State Park."

Anthony shook his head slightly and said, "Simon, there's nothing we can't get."

Simon hesitated a little, nodded and said, "well, I'll find a way to take it down. It's really suitable for building a manor. Pointed point manor, well, the name seems inappropriate. Since it is domay Point Park, it will be called domay point manor in the future. "

Anthony took a look at Simon and said, "you've long been interested in that piece of land, haven't you?"

"It's just a little hesitant all the time," Simon admitted

Anthony laughed, but suddenly changed the topic: "Simon, do you remember your parents' information?"

Simon was stunned, shook his head and said, "I don't remember."

Anthony thought for a while, seemed to be hesitant, but he said quickly: "I don't know why, the first time I saw your picture, I had a certain feeling, just saw you face to face, this feeling is more clear. However, I can't say what this feeling is. It seems that we've met before, but it's definitely impossible. You should have been in San Francisco until you arrived in Los Angeles two years ago, but I've only been to San Francisco three times since I was a kid. "

"Maybe it's just a sense of seeing. Many people will have this feeling."

"Maybe," Anthony nodded. "In fact, I hired a detective company to investigate your parents' information. I mean possible information. I don't have any malice. I hope you don't mind. However, none of these investigations has yielded any results. You were picked up by a policeman on the side of the road when you were 5 years old and sent to a welfare home, but before you were 5 years old, there was no record of your personal identity. Do you remember before you were five? "

Simon doesn't mind. He's also very curious about his past. If the Johnston family can find out, he won't have to waste any more experience.

At this point, hearing Anthony's question, Simon shook his head and said, "no, or, very vague, I can't remember at all.""Forget it. It's said that people have been claiming that it was your parents who tried to recognize you, but you didn't respond. I don't think you're looking for your parents Anthony said, suddenly looking at Simon again and saying, "do you hate them?"

Simon shook his head: "I don't know them at all. How can I hate them?"

"Well, I'm curious. What drives you to be who you are?" Anthony asked another question: "you know, without enough ideas, it's hard for a person living at the bottom of the society to be as good as you are now. Most of them just drift with the tide or get worse."

"I haven't thought it over, Tony," Simon said, shaking his head. "If you really want an answer, maybe it's just that I want to be better than most people."

"It's still not reasonable," Anthony said. "But since you don't want to explain, I won't ask more. In fact, the only thing I care about today is when you are going to marry my sister. Of course, this is also the most concerned thing of my parents. They don't want two old girls who can't get married in our family. "

Simon said subconsciously, "two?"

Anthony was stunned and said with a smile: "I There is also an aunt who is my grandfather's daughter and father's sister. It's just smaller than me. You should know? "

Simon nodded and said, "she, well, Jennie and I have mentioned, isn't she married?"

"Now that Jennie has mentioned it to you, she must have revealed something more. My little aunt has never been married, and even, well, you'll know when you see her. My father always thinks that Jennie may have been influenced by my little aunt, so she has never made a boyfriend Anthony said and asked again, "so, when are you going to marry Jane?"

Simon did not because, said: "as long as Jennie would like, any time can, I do not resist this kind of thing."

"Then try to finish it in two years as possible," Anthony said, not politely and decisively. "You should know that Janet is 28 years old, and her parents want her to get married before she is 30 years old."
