Chapter 1049 If you do something wrong, you must be punished

Boston, inside the golf club in the West Rich District of the city's western suburbs.

It was already Saturday afternoon.

I handled some work in New York yesterday, and in the evening I came here to accompany Maria, who had just become pregnant for a night. Now it is Maria Bezruk. However, Ulyanna's side, because she felt that the woman's original surname "Ovginnikova" was long, circling and unpleasant, so she simply continued to call her "Meretskova".

Simon was playing golf with the three boys from Maria's house again. Girl A came over from a distance and reminded the guests that they had arrived.

Motionallying to continue with the three boys, Simon left the court and came to the cafe on the edge of the court.

In addition to Maria who accompanied her as usual, there is also a tall middle-aged man in his forties and fifties, with short brown hair, and the typical long round winter melon face that Simon just read today.

This is Timothy Mellon.

Although he looks young, the other party is actually 54 years old. He is the fourth-generation great-grandson of Thomas Mellon, the founder of the Mellon family. He is also the grandson of U.S. Treasury Secretary Andrew W. Mellon in the 1920s and 1930s who brought the Mellon family to its peak.

Most importantly, the other party is the fourth-generation core of the Mellon family. He not only controls a large transportation company, but also is a director of the Andrew W. Mellon Foundation. At the same time, he is on the list of the 400 richest people in the United States this year, with his father Paul Mellon, the father and son's assets are US$1.1 billion and US$500 million respectively.

Seeing Simon appear, Timothy Mellon got up first, smiled and came over and said, "Hi, Simon, I'm very happy to see you, I've been waiting for you for a long time."

Simon was also very enthusiastic: "So too, Timothy, hello."

Maria, who was watching, saw the two men who thought it was a snake. The woman who knew why this meeting was not the same, couldn't help but feel a little confused. She didn't know if she hoped that her children would do the same in the future, or would do it.

After the two men sat down, Maria did not accompany them and poured coffee for them herself. She left the cafe with Girl A and several other followers.

"I recently read the family tree of the Mellon family. It's amazing to say," Simon and the women left, their smiles remained unchanged, and they said to Timothy Mellon: "From Mr. Thomas Mellon's 1813 to 1996, nearly two centuries, the Mellon family is still prosperous. In my opinion, the Mellon family's current foundation is deeper than the Rockefeller family."

"Oh, thank you, Simon."

Timothy Mellon responded with a smile, picked up the coffee and took a sip, responding to changes.

Simon waited for Timothy to put down the coffee cup before continuing: "But do you know what I admire most about Mr. Thomas Mellon?"

"Um?"

"What I admire most is that Mr. Mellon has 8 children. This is actually a kind of expectation of mine. I also hope that I can have many children and have prosperous descendants, and pass on the surname "Westero" because I believe that only if you live long enough in a single person's life can you be the winner, and only if your descendants are prosperous enough can you be the winner of this world."

Timothy Mellon obviously didn't expect Simon Westero to talk to him about this...some strange topics. After the young man opposite him finished speaking, he finally couldn't help saying: "Simon, I'm even more curious why you invited me today. We didn't have much intersection before, so why not just click it?"

"Actually, this is the issue I want to talk about," Simon said, handing over a document on the table, and then said: "It is not easy for any family to pass on for a long time. Just like Morgan, who was tied with Rockefeller, now, except for the names of big companies on Wall Street, this family has declined. Oh, by the way, there is also the Hurst family. What happened in the past two years is a pity. In fact, my initial expectation was to establish a good cooperative relationship with the Hurst family. Unfortunately, I am a nouveau riche like Hurst, obviously not something that I am as noble as Hurst."

Timothy Mellon didn't have to hear Simon's final meaning, but just opened a stack of information in front of him, and his eyelids couldn't help but hop.

First of all, there are some photos in the folder.

Among them is the woman with a very good temperament who just left.

Then, there is a draft news title: "Scandal, two Ukrainian lovers in Westeros are all pregnant!"

Turning back further, Timothy Mellon quickly understood the ins and outs.

This report was a secret investigation conducted by two reporters from the Pittsburgh Tribune, which included various secret photos, recordings and pregnancy test materials obtained from a private hospital at a high price.

However, it was not these that shocked Timothy Mellon the most, but the entire investigation process of these two reporters was recorded in detail by other "eyes", including how his cousin Richard Mellon Skyve instructed him, who did both reporters come into contact with and even this explosive manuscript will be used as various arrangements for next Monday's bombshell news.

Not only that, the second half of the information suddenly changed and became the privacy of his stupid cousin, a bunch of lovers and illegitimate children.

After looking through the information in his hand, Timothy Mellon felt a layer of cold sweat on his back, and he couldn't help but scold his cousin. Is he planning to go to war with Simon Westeros like the Hurst family? What's more, is it to pull the entire Mellon family to start the war?

Simon waited quietly for Timothy Mellon to close the folder. Seeing that the other party was wandering and obviously didn't know how to speak, he took the lead and said: "The cause of the matter may be that at a cocktail party in Boston last time, your cousin probably felt that I didn't respect him enough. It's easy to understand. The Mellon family, as a veteran family of the Federation, should be respectful to anyone when they see it. In short, he probably wanted to teach me a lesson."

Timothy Mellon paused and couldn't help saying, "Simon, in fact, Charlie and I are not close. Since you have read the family tree, you should know that our family is very large, and Richard is just the grandson of my grandfather and younger brother. We are just the fourth generation."

Simon raised his eyebrows slightly: "So, you can't control this?"

"No, no, of course no, I promise that certainly won't appear in the newspaper next Monday."

"I know that Mr. Skyve has spent millions of dollars in recent years to dig out Mr. President's black material and has gained a lot. But now you have seen that the White House has not suffered any fundamental harm, and Clinton's position has become more and more stable. This has proved that these insignificant methods are useless. Since it is useless to the President, a public figure who needs to cherish his feathers, it is of course even less useful to me."

Timothy Mellon listened patiently, and had already scolded a cousin a hundred times in his heart. After a pause, he still had to say, "Simon, I... I apologize to you first on behalf of Charlie. If you think it is necessary, I will let him apologize to you in person."

Although the Mellon family's current strength is even faintly above the Rockefeller family, Timothy Mellon is more aware of what kind of power Simon Westeros, with a net worth of $1.5 trillion, has. If there is a real conflict, even if Westeros will be in a mess, the Mellon family will definitely fall to the same situation as the Hurst family.

In short, this softness has to be accepted.

Simon stared at Timothy Mellon, but shook his head: "I also believe in another principle. Timothy. If you do something wrong, you must be punished. Apology is not enough."

Timothy Mellon looked at the information in front of him and said, "The two press conferences that investigated this matter were fired and will never be able to enter the industry in the future."

"Not enough," Simon shook his head again and said directly: "Since Mr. Skyve wants to publish a heavy revelation about me in the Pittsburgh Tribune next Monday, if you want him not to do so, then turn off the newspaper."

Seeing that he apologized and gave in, the other party was still greedy. The pride of the century-old money-children also stared at the young man opposite him and said, "Simon, don't you think this is a bit too much?"

Although the print media is rapidly declining now, as Pittsburgh's newspaper with the same circulation as another Pittsburgh Newspaper, the Pittsburgh Tribune is worth at least $50 million. Just because of a small matter, a newspaper worth half a million is shut down. How is this possible?

Simon did not directly answer Timothy Mellon's question, but said: "I checked in advance. In the 1990 Forbes US 400 list, 9 of the Mellon family members were on the list, and the total family assets were about 5 billion. This year, only 6 people were on the list, and you were the last one. Timothy, have you ever thought that next year, or the year after, your family will continue to decrease, just like the Hurst family?"

"Simon, are you threatening me?"

Simon did not hesitate: "That's right."

“…”

After a moment of silence, Timothy Mellon suddenly said: "Simon, don't forget that thing about Pittsburgh two years ago."

Simon shook his head and said with a slight silence: "I don't know what you are talking about, but it must be a very bad thing. But, Timothy, have you ever wondered why all of you know about this? Is it because, in fact, someone deliberately lets you know so that everyone can understand what extent will the other party do if they are completely angry?"

Timothy Mellon is silent again.

Simon's tone returned to normal and soon said again: "Timosie, as a poor boy who climbed up step by step from the bottom, I understand more than all of you what the prey of the weak is. I never treat my friends unfairly. But if I become an enemy, I have never had anything called kindness here, and I will only knock the other party out of dust at all costs. Now, today's event is just a small friction for me. We are neither friends nor enemies. At the same time, we still have the opportunity to become friends or enemies. Everything depends on how the Mellon family plans to choose. Next Monday, I will give me a result."

Maria returns to the cafe with A and Timothy Mellon has left.

Simon stood up, looked at the girl A put away the information on the table, and said, "Get Mary and the others to change to a private clinic. In addition, the Chels Hospital, which leaked the news, contacted their board of directors, and the dean fired the doctor involved, and found a way to throw her into prison. If she had no flaws, she would find her husband, or her son, or her parents and brothers."

Girl A nodded and agreed softly.

Maria was a little worried: "Simon, I think there is no need to do this."

Simon stepped forward, reached out to hold up the woman's glossy face and rubbed it. He looked at the woman's blue eyes and said, "In this world, you are not too much about others, it will only make others treat you more and more excessively."

Maria felt the man's palm begin to slide towards her neck, and raised her hand to hold it down with a blushing face. She also subconsciously looked at the other side of the court outside the window, not mentioning Simon's decision.

Seeing the woman being shy, Simon smiled and withdrew his hand, walking out and said, "I'll wait until I go back to New York next time, you can take good care of yourself."

Maria followed Simon, nodded, and couldn't help but say, "You, Simon, Ulia also have two children."

"I think I'm too biased to Victor and the others?"

Maria didn't answer.

How obvious.

However, as the mother of three boys, Maria instinctively hopes that her little man will be better for the children.

Seeing that Maria didn't speak, Simon did not continue.

When he came to the field outside, the three boys who were notified also came over. Simon rubbed the youngest Anton's head and said, "I'm leaving and take good care of your mother. In addition, when Kangen's fight last time, someone will say bad things about your mother in the future. You three can continue to fight, and then I will deal with their parents."

When Maria saw the little man mentioning the fight between her second son Constantine and her classmates some time ago, she was a little nervous. When she heard it, she couldn't help but widen her eyes and said, "Simon, you can't teach the children badly."

Simon ignored it and continued to say to the three boys: "If you have any problems in learning, you can find your mother, and you will listen to me. Of course, you must also remember that only if you are the right party, I will support you without reason. If you deliberately cause trouble, you must first consider whether you can bear it before doing it. Moreover, the support I give you is not permanent. You will grow up one day, and at that time, I hope you will become men who can take everything alone."

Maria finally calmed down when she heard this.

Men finally didn't teach their children to become bullies.

However, thinking about the incident some time ago, the boy who fought with his son was not only dropped out of school, but even the father who was the president of a large company lost his job. The family came to apologize and beg, and even she couldn't help but feel soft-hearted. However, maybe the matter was passed to him through the waitress next to him, and then he didn't know what happened. In short, the family never appeared in front of her again.

After a few chats at the end, Simon sent Maria and the children home before returning to New York by helicopter.

There are still arrangements tonight.

Mainly, the stage drama "This Man Comes from Earth" started some time ago, which is also an important peripheral to this phenomenal and top-notch science fiction movie at the beginning of last year.

Speaking of which, the famous Broadway is not just classics like "The Phantom of the Opera" and "The Cat". Many Hollywood movies will be adapted into stage plays and performed on Broadway. Once successful, they will also tour in San Francisco, London, Paris and other places outside New York.

Just like this time, the 3D version of "The Lion King" produced by Daenerys Entertainment was released at the end of 1993. Not only did it have a global box office of more than $900 million, it also launched a stage play at the end of last year and was a great success. So far, the box office of the tour around the world has exceeded $300 million in one year.

This is actually just the beginning.

The former "The Lion King" was still touring until 20 years later, and the cumulative box office of stage dramas even surpassed the legendary "The Phantom of the Opera", reaching more than 6 billion US dollars.

Although the profit margin of stage dramas that require high rent and actor salaries is low, this phenomenon-level peripheral income that can last for decades is actually the fundamental foundation of a large studio. The reason why Daenerys Entertainment has achieved a net profit of more than $5 billion in the past fiscal year is because the diversified omni-channel operation of the entire group is becoming more and more mature.

Let’s talk about “This Man from Earth”, the reason I planned to attend tonight is because the heroine is Alexandra Martinis, the ‘Golden Rose Cave Princess’ brought back from Italy by Simon.

Unlike "The Lion King", which has huge investment and requires professional singing and dancing, "This Man from Earth" mainly focuses on dialogue and has low requirements for actors. Alessandra is more than enough to play this role.

Then he made an appointment to go to the woman's place to spend the night after the show.
