All day on October 20, Simon stayed at the Westeros headquarters in Rockefeller Center, Midtown Manhattan.

Through communication with senior executives of Igrit Company, Westeros family political consulting team, Cersei Capital analysis team, Simon's personal assistant office and even Westeros family private intelligence team, we have clearly completed the review and analysis of a series of recent events surrounding the Wisconsin Logistics and Distribution Center.

It was already evening in a small conference room at the headquarters of Westeros.

Simon and James Rebled stood side by side in front of a white writing board in the corner of the conference room, with only a few words on the white board.

political party.

union.

Shorts.

media.

Competitor.

Many things seem complicated, and they are cut into pieces, and there are always a few core threads.

If a political party wants to win votes, it must arouse some topics of interest to the public and make a commitment that meets the public's will.

Trade unions must maintain their own status and strive for more benefits.

A short seller needs a company's stock price to fall so that it can be profitable.

The media needs hot topics of public opinion to promote sales and ratings.

When competitors have the opportunity, they cannot be merciful.

Not only that, these factors are not completely separated, but a complementary relationship. Political parties must win over trade unions, and short sellers must borrow the power of trade unions and political parties. The media is often the most effective tool of public opinion. Competitors are happy to disrupt the political parties, trade unions and media.

The two looked at a column of words on the whiteboard in silence for a moment, and James Rebeld first said, "I will go to Washington on the weekend to talk to the president."

The White House pair really needs to be beaten.

Simon actually has not given much demands on the Clintons and understands that there are too many things to weigh in in that position. However, if the other party blindly watches the Democrats use Igritte in Wisconsin to make trouble with the Democrats in Wisconsin for the most part of the party.

As a state that was focused on last year's midterm elections and also a focus of the Westeros system's deep-root political field plan, it is not difficult for Simon to do this. Compared with states and counties in the Midwest that only have two or three electoral votes, the share of 10 electoral votes in Wisconsin is not irrelevant at all.

Thinking of this, Simon nodded and said, "Also, if possible, let's talk to Gore again."

With the advantages that Clinton has accumulated in recent years, there is almost no suspense in re-election next year's election. Instead, Vice President Al Gore, who wants to continue to win the presidency after Clinton, must be inseparable from the help of the Westeros system. Moreover, compared with the relatively shallow Clinton couple, the Gore family has a much deeper influence in the Democratic Party.

James knew about Simon's meeting with Bush Sr. at the beginning of the year, and also knew some of Simon's thoughts. Hearing this, he said, "Have you changed your mind?"

"Of course not, Jim, you just need to have a meal with Gore, not promise anything."

Simon did not want Clinton to continue the national policy of economic development as the center after Gore came to power, but hoped that the Bush family would come back to power, regain Clinton's accumulated wealth through several wars, and fundamentally decline the United States. According to the weak people experienced in a certain book, Simon believed that this would be more beneficial to the expansion of the Westeros system.

However, during the discussion with James, Simon would not explain so bluntly.

It is hard to say whether James will be a staunch patriot.

Therefore, the reason given by Simon is that the huge Westeros system must have certain solid ally between the two parties in the United States. The Clintons and his wife are allies in the Democratic Party. The relationship between the two sides is actually just right. If it is too close, it is probably a problem for Clinton to be re-election, let alone continue to exert the influence of the Clinton family in the future.

In terms of the Republican Party, Simon chose the Bush family.

As for Clinton's current vice president, Al Gore, although the other party is the main promoter of the U.S. Information Highway Act, Simon had never considered trying to win over the other party from the beginning.

Of course, it is still okay to use the influence of the Gore family within the Democratic Party to interfere with the recent storm.

Neither politics nor business can escape intrigue.

After talking about this, James stroked the word "short" on the whiteboard and asked, "This, Simon, what are you going to do?"

The five factors that caused this storm, the last two "media" and "competitors" are not very important. The Westeros system currently has a very strong control over the media field and will never have one-sided phenomena. As for competitors, there are not many people who will be taken seriously by the Westeros system at the moment.

Therefore, in addition to political parties and trade unions, another most unstable factor is Wall Street's short capital against technology stocks in the Westeros system.

Simon sorted out his thoughts and said, "What a short short company wants to succeed is nothing more than those means, provoking lawsuits, introducing authorities' interference, exposing financial scandals, etc. The matter in Wisconsin has little to do with short positions. They are still building positions, but I think they will definitely continue to use these things to suppress the market's confidence in Igrit. As for the financial aspects, Igrit has no loopholes for them now, so the most important means is to introduce authorities' interference, nothing more than antitrust review. Even if we have already compromised with Washington, Igrit's monopoly advantage is still too obvious. Robertson and others want to short, the most effective way is to start from this aspect."

Choosing the right time to split Igret is Simon's established plan.

After all, the scale of Igret is too large now. If you don’t make any adjustments on your own, it will be difficult to escape the development shackles that are too big to lose.

James also understood this, so he knew that even if the bears really succeeded, they would not cause a heavy blow to Igret. However, he quickly asked: "Simon, are you really not worried that the new technology bubble will burst in the short term?"

Simon said: "Cisco, AOL and Igrit, the only thing I'm a little worried about is AOL, because it is still investing heavily in building its own infrastructure network, so I plan to let AOL issue another $5 billion in long-term bonds in the near future to reserve enough cash. Apart from that, there is nothing more. If the bubble really bursts, with Cisco's market advantage, it can easily survive the trough. Even so, you must have read the memorandum of the meeting on October 7. The funds raised by this company's IPO are the chips I prepared for the bottom-buying expansion after the bubble burst. Therefore, if the new technology bubble bursts early, it will only benefit us, because many potential competitors will lose their strength and even have to completely withdraw from this field."

James swept a series of words on the whiteboard again, turned to Simon again, and looked bright: "So, do you think these things are nothing recently?"

"Of course not. We still have to take it seriously and handle these things very carefully. There has never been a shortage of various black swan events in human history. Sometimes, just some very inconspicuous small things may turn into an irreversible storm. Therefore, I will only say to you the words just now, that in front of others, my attitude is definitely like a great enemy."

When James heard Simon say this, he smiled relievedly and couldn't help but say, "Simon, I'm often curious about what kind of experience will make you so mature?"

Simon followed and smiled: "Jim, let's talk about the next topic."

James just asked casually and did not expect an answer.

The two continued to discuss some specific details of the subsequent response, and they did not get off work until six o'clock in the afternoon.

Speaking of which, Simon is actually happy to see the recent storm and even some things that can be expected in the future.

Because the technology stock market is indeed rising a bit too fast.

Simon would be happy to see growth slowing down in Igrit and other Westeros system tech stocks.

Only fine water can flow for a long time.

Therefore, even without these things, Simon is planning to start reducing his holdings in Westeros system technology stocks at the beginning of next year. On the one hand, cash out funds for investment in other fields, and on the other hand, suppressing the overheating rise of technology stocks.

Now it's a two-pronged approach.

Of course, Simon will not let it go.

Just like the sudden strike of a truck driver at the Wisconsin logistics and distribution center contractor, in order to avoid another situation similar to being caught off guard in the future, Simon's handling method this time will definitely make some people unforgettable.

There is no work arrangement for the weekend, Veronica is still in Los Angeles and cannot go back to the West Coast.

In recent days, I occasionally glanced at the map in the Fifth Avenue apartment. I just decided to go to the Alaska wasteland where the snow had already started to fall, race, hunt, hike, and relax.

When ordinary people see rich people wearing ordinary clothes and driving ordinary cars and eating ordinary food, they often think that rich people are just like this, and even feel strangely superior. In fact, the biggest advantage that wealth brings to people is freedom and choice. Rich people can wear ordinary clothes, but they can also swipe luxury goods on a shopping street at any time. This is something that ordinary people who have to save money for half a year for a shoulder bag cannot do.

Simon wanted to go to Alaska on the weekend and told me that everything would be arranged.

Fashion Week just passed, and many models came to New York to prepare for the Victoria's Secret show at the end of the year while resting and preparing for the Victoria's Secret show at the end of the year. Simon originally planned to bring a few large vases together, and had dinner with Erin Lauder on Wednesday. When he talked about it casually, the girl snatched the pit.

Obviously there is only one.

On Friday night, they rushed to meet with Simon and spent the night at the northern suburb of Greenwich in Connecticut. As soon as the sky was dawn the next morning, the two boarded Simon's private Boeing 767 and flew to Alaska. The six-hour trip arrived in Anchorage. Due to the time difference, it was still around 9 o'clock on Saturday.

After the plane landed, it left Anchorage directly and drove eastward for more than 100 kilometers to a wasteland hunting ground.

In October, Alaska has already fallen snow. Fortunately, not all areas are covered with snow. This is the hunting ground selected by Simon and his group. When they arrive at their destination, they look directly at the most direct feeling of the vast sea and the vast sky.

Erin Lauder, who had never had such an experience for many years, was even more excited. After getting off the car, he looked around and quickly couldn't help but spread his arms and shouted out with a loud shout.

It was already noon.

A group of bodyguards who accompanied Simon and two guides, a man and a woman, began to prepare lunch. Simon naturally didn't need to pay attention to these things. After Erin Lauder finished venting, he looked at the girl's red face and asked with a smile: "How do you feel?"

Erin Lauder felt Simon's smile and suddenly felt a little shy. He stepped forward and held the man's arm: "Where is the gun, aren't we going to hunt? Tell you, I've grown up so old, but I've never touched a gun. I must try it later. Well, I can't hunt any animals. Can I fire an empty gun?"

"certainly."

Simon nodded and walked towards an off-road vehicle behind him. A bodyguard was already sorting out his guns because it was a large animal hunting ground where moose and brown bears appeared, and the trunk was filled with rifles with scopes.

Seeing Simon coming over with Erin Lauder, the bodyguard greeted him, but instead of picking the rifles, he dragged over a box that was obviously a bit heavy. After opening it, looking at the big gun with an exaggerated shape in the box, Erin Lauder immediately widened his eyes.

The bodyguard, who is already a middle-aged and calm, picked up the big gun and handed it to Simon in both hands, and couldn't help but persuade: "Boss, do you have to play this?"

Simon easily took the famous Barrett anti-equipment sniper rifle with one hand, and then gestured to the barrel: "It's not good to remove the bracket."

The middle-aged bodyguard was helpless, but he skillfully helped Simon remove the front bracket of the big gun. He already knew what his boss planned to play. However, thinking about his boss's strength, this 15-kilogram gun weighing nothing in his hand. He handed over the magazine again, thinking that if his boss was injured, he would definitely not be able to take it away. He finally tried hard: "Boss, use this gun to hunt, even a brown bear will be broken."

Simon took the magazine and put it on, saying, "I didn't plan to hit the brown bear, just hit the stones, but this time I was neglected. Next time I can bring some small drones as mobile targets."

After saying that, he held a big gun in one hand and hugged Erin Lauder, who was still a little dazed next to him: "Baby, let's try this big toy together."

Erin Lauder followed Simon's force and walked toward not far outside the camp, standing next to the man, watching him carry the exaggerated gun that looked heavy.

Then.

boom……

At some point, looking at the tall figure beside you and the wild gun, a roar came from your ears. Erin Lauder felt that she seemed to have become a prey of some guy, and she was still the kind of person who didn't need to chase and hunt and just jumped into the trap.

Manor in the northern suburb of Greenwich, Connecticut.

The weekend passed.

It was the early morning of October 23.

He personally cooked and prepared breakfast. After morning exercise, the man who changed into a suit and dressed in a formal suit sat opposite the dining table. Erin Lauder thoughtfully distributed breakfast and sat down at the dining table, but did not pick up the tableware immediately. He supported his face with one hand and still had a certain tempting blushing temperament after this weekend. His eyes were bright and he looked at a guy opposite for a while, and suddenly asked, "Simon, did you do it on purpose?"
