Seeing Alexander and Miranda having breakfast at the small bar in the living room, Eric did not enter the restaurant, and placed Giselle, who was shy and looked next to Alexander, and said, "Hey, sit down, I'll get breakfast."

Alexander felt the atmosphere was a little strange. Seeing Eric walking towards the kitchen, he quickly got up and followed, saying, "Eric, I'll help you."

Smelling the scent of cereal porridge, Giselle, who had already consumed severe physical strength last night, suddenly felt a strong sense of hunger. Before Eric and Alexander came back, he picked up the small bowl of Alexander next to him, picked up the spoon and started drinking.

After drinking all the cereal porridge that was not left in Alexander's bowl in a few seconds, Giselle looked up and looked at Miranda with his eyes wandering around, saying, "What do you think, you will have this day sooner or later."

Miranda just tsk twice and said, "I'm just surprised."

Of course, Giselle knew what Miranda was surprised about. In the modeling circle, there were really not many girls who could keep their first time for a long time. If she and Alexander hadn't just stepped into this circle, Eric would have been selected by Eric, in the past few years, the two girls would never have been able to survive alone.

Although his body was still a little uncomfortable, thinking of this, Giselle still felt a little grateful to Eric again. After all, even if the concept is open, no girl would be willing to exchange her body again and again for the sake of being on the rise.

Eric and Alexander soon walked out of the kitchen, each holding a tray.

Sitting across from Giselle, Eric placed a bowl of cereal and a fruit salad in front of Giselle, then took a portion of food for himself, and said while eating, "Stay at home during the day, and I happen to have a party to attend at night, and I will take you with you."

When Giselle heard Eric taking her to the party, she nodded happily. She still hoped to have more interactions with Eric. After all, this was her first man, and maybe even the last one.

However, thinking of something, Giselle shook his head again in a blink of an eye and said, "Eric, I am going to shoot the cover blockbuster for next month for Bazaar magazine today, and I have already made an appointment with the photographer."

Eric took the milk handed over by Alexander, took a sip and said, "Then I'll push it until tomorrow. I'll call your agent later and say you'll be with me today."

"Yeah," Giselle stopped saying anything and nodded slightly.

After Miranda and the other two said that, they pulled Eric's sleeve pitifully: "Eric, I want to go to the party, too."

Eric shook his head and refused, "This time it won't work. Next time there will be a more relaxing party, so I'll take you there."

Although Giselle could be lazy for a day, Eric could not do so. Before coming to Manhattan, his schedule for the next week was already full.

The new year TV program promotion season in May has just passed, and all TV stations under ABC Group have basically determined the subscription list for the next year.

Eric has to watch new project demonstrations from several TV network program production departments in the past two days. Classic TV programs are always hard to come by. Even if you cannot see the high-rated programs in your memory, Eric also requires you to have a clear idea of ​​the upcoming new programs of several major TV stations.

After a busy day, I returned to my apartment on Madison Avenue in the evening and simply ate something in advance. Eric took Gisele to the Upper East Side.

The party was held tonight by Morgan Stanley President John Mark. Chris brought the other party’s invitation when he came to East Hampton last week. Yahoo’s ipo process has been steadily advancing under Morgan Stanley’s operations. There are only benefits and no harm in establishing a good relationship with the other party, and Eric did not refuse.

The car stopped outside an apartment on East 95th Street. Eric pulled Giselle's little hand and just got out when he saw John Mark and Chris greeting him together.

John Mark is about fifty years old, with a bit gray hair and a slightly short figure. He is wearing a gray suit. When he saw Eric get out of the car, he immediately smiled enthusiastically and stepped forward and reached out to Eric.

"Good evening, Eric," John Mark shook hands with Eric, and looked at Giselle next to him.

"This is Gisele Bundchen, my girlfriend," Eric introduced: "Gisele, this is Mr. John Mark, the president of Morgan Stanley."

"Hello, Mr. Mark, I'm glad to see you," Giselle smiled and stretched out his right hand to John Mark.

John Mark gently held Giselle's little hand very gentlely and said, "Hello, Miss Bonchen, I'm very happy to see you too."

After a few simple greetings, Eric greeted Chris and Emily again, and then several people walked into the apartment together.

Because every inch of land is valuable, Manhattan buildings always give people a very narrow and crowded feeling from the outside. The same is true for the simple red brick apartment in front of you, but the interior of the apartment looks very spacious. At this time, there were twenty or thirty people standing or sitting in the hall, but it did not seem crowded at all.

Seeing Eric appear, the guests in the hall got up and gathered.

If these traditional Manhattan elites who value identity and manners could still maintain a sense of superiority against wealth upstarts like Eric a few years ago, but as Eric's personal wealth gradually expands to an amazing level, it will be difficult for these people to maintain some reserve.

"Eric, let me introduce you to you. This is Mr. Anson Bilder, the director of our company. He and Mr. Gilbert have been good friends since childhood... and this, the founder of Tiger Fund, Mr. Julian Robertson, last year's Tiger Fund sniping against Southeast Asian currencies with Mr. Soros's quantum fund, was amazing... Oh, the next one is..."

John Mark has a wide circle of people. Among the guests, in addition to several senior executives from Morgan Stanley and several other Wall Street tycoons, as well as some social elites in real estate, media and even political circles. Eric also unexpectedly saw another Victoria's Secret angel, Stephanie Seymour, who attended the party with her publishing tycoon husband Peter Brandt.

With John Mark's recommendation, Eric greeted the guests one by one.

After a rough introduction, John Mark's assistant came over and said something in his ear. John Mark gave Eric a sorry look and said, "Eric, wait a moment, Mr. Gilbert is here too."

Seymour Gilbert was the last chairman of Morgan Stanley. The other party was the godson of Henry Morgan, the founder of the Morgan Consortium. He joined Morgan Stanley in 1960 and led Morgan Stanley's rise on Wall Street. Although the other party has retired now, he still has a strong influence within Morgan Stanley.

After John Mark went out to greet Seymour Gilbert, Eric winked at Chris. He felt that John Mark seemed to be too enthusiastic about him tonight. After all, the two of them had only met a few times. Logically speaking, John Mark should not be so familiar and even a little attentive.

Chris took Eric to the buffet table in the corner of the living room, took a glass of red wine, and said, "You should know the merger between Morgan Stanley and Dean Wait last year?"

Eric nodded. Dean-witter is also a powerful stock brokerage and securities company on Wall Street, mainly engaged in stock retail business. Speaking of which, the protagonist of "When Happiness Comes Knocks" starring Will Smith in the original Time and Space, was laid off by Dean-witter.

Since Yahoo's ipo involves, Eric also paid attention to some of the merger of Morgan Stanley and Dean Vette that began last year.

Seeing Eric nodding, Chris continued: "Last month, the new Morgan Stanley board of directors made a decision to appoint former Dean Vette CEO Philip Pussel as chairman and CEO of Morgan Stanley. Philip Pussel immediately appointed several of his close friends to take charge of important positions in various departments of Morgan Stanley. Only John Mark, the original senior executive of the Morgan system, barely held his position as president."

Hearing Chris' explanation, Eric roughly understood that the original Morgan Stanley management failed in the power struggle for control of the company after this merger, but judging from the current situation, John Mark and others obviously did not accept it.

Eric was not interested in Morgan Stanley's infighting, and just asked: "Will this affect Yahoo's ipo?"

"Of course not. This is a two-digit matter. Even if they fight hard, they will not dare to mess with Yahoo's iPo. If we push us to other investment banks because of this, the whole Wall Street will be laughing at Morgan Stanley." Chris said in a relaxed tone, "John and the others just want to win you over."

Eric then understood.

In the past six months, with the further rise of the Nasdaq Index, the asset size of more than a dozen companies controlled by the entire Firefly system has exceeded US$300 billion.

Any of these more than ten companies is a customer that several major investment banks need to try their best to attract. Even if it is not IPO listing, these companies want to conduct bond issuance, corporate mergers, targeted financing and other behaviors, which are inseparable from the participation of investment banks.

Eric and Chris were talking in a low voice, and John Mark led Seymour Gilbert, former chairman of Morgan Stanley, to come over. Everyone couldn't help but have another warm greeting.

We chatted with Simon Gilbert and others for more than ten minutes before we separated. Emily and Gisele, who had just taken the initiative to leave time for the men to talk, moved back, and Stephanie Seymour was also following him.

Stephanie Seymour was wearing a black deep V evening dress, looking sexy and charming. When she got closer, she took the initiative to say hello: "Hi, Eric, I heard that you have personally participated in "Iron Man", how is the movie made?"

"We have started to do the late stages, and you will see them next summer," Eric responded, and asked politely, "Where are you, Stephanie, what are you busy with recently?"

Stephanie Seymour immediately showed a half-true and half-false resentful look, glanced at Giselle, who was holding Eric's arm intimately, and said, "I can only be a housewife now. In the future, the fashion circle will be Giselle and the others."

Stephanie Seymour's status in the fashion industry was not much worse than Cindy and Linda. It was just that considering that she was already past the golden age of a supermodel, Stephanie Seymour chose to marry publishing tycoon Peter Brandt.

I thought it was a "real fruit". Unexpectedly, with the emergence of the Victoria's Secret Show, Cindy Crawford, Linda Ivan Golinsta and others ushered in the second spring of their careers. Their fame and status in the fashion industry were even higher than their heyday. Stephanie Seymour herself could only get an ordinary Victoria's Secret Angel. Although the salary for each show was much richer than that of other second-tier angels, and she could make some fame with the high exposure of Victoria's Secret Angels, she was gradually drifting away from the fashion industry.

With the gradual blood exchange of the Victoria's Secret Legion, last year was Stephanie Seymour's last Victoria's Secret show. At that time, Stephanie Seymour also wanted to get a role in "Desperate Housewife", but was rejected by Eric because the conditions did not match.

At this moment, when Eric heard Stephanie Seymour say this, he just smiled and said, "Actually this is not bad. Women always want to return to their families."

Seeing that Eric was unmoved, Stephanie Seymour put away his resentful expression, squirted him with a charming look, and said, "Eric, you are macho."

"Of course not, I mean," Eric shrugged, "Well, men need to return to their families, too."

"Haha," all three women laughed.

As he said this, Stephanie Seymour's husband Peter Brandt came over, put his wife on the waist and said, "What are you talking about?"

Feeling Peter Brandt's movements, Stephanie Seymour's expression froze significantly, and then smiled again.

Eric didn't care about the little moves between the couple on the other side, and joked: "We are talking about several major political correctness in Hollywood movies, such as returning to the family."

"This is an interesting topic and has great potential to explore," Peter Brandt said. "Eric, how about I come to my Interview magazine for an interview with similar topics?"

"Interview" is the main magazine under Brandt Publishing Group. It was founded in 1969 by the famous Andy Warhol. It mainly targets professional interviews with filmmakers, artists, musicians and other groups.

Eric thought Peter Brandt was quite good at finding a chance, but just shook his head and refused, "It's just a chat, I'm afraid I don't have this time."

"It's a pity," Peter Brandt shook his head, and without force, instead said to his wife: "Fanny, come with me, let's go and say hello to Mr. Gilbert."

After saying that, Peter Brandt nodded to Eric and others and left with Stephanie Seymour.

Watching the two go away, Eric retracted his gaze, but found that Chris and Emily looked at him with a strange look. Even Giselle blinked at Eric.

"Well, why are you looking at me like that?" Eric said helplessly: "I did nothing."
