"Ah, this..." Irene was obviously moved. She has been in the United States for more than two months, and she hasn't gone out much. The farthest she has just strolled around Manhattan.Glancing at the cousin who is the backbone, seeing that Zhou Damei has no objection, Irene nodded: "Okay." After speaking, she said: "Will it be troublesome?"

"No." Shirley took a sip of the red wine and said, "I can use a private jet over Simon."

Irene was surprised again: "A private jet, I haven't been on it yet."

Shirley smiled and looked at Zhou Dameiren: "Karen, are you going?"

Zhou Damei's expression was still calm, but her heart was a little crazy.

However, facing Shirley's invitation, she hesitated a little, but she still nodded and agreed.Then he stared at Shirley and quietly comforted himself, that is Simon Westeros' private jet, not yours, so what is there to be proud of?

Chapter 1266 Willing to Help

Although it is the weekend, Simon's schedule is still very full.

Arrived in Manhattan, nine o'clock was a seminar in the field of molecular biology at Columbia University on the Upper West Side, hosted by the Simon & Janet Westeros Foundation.

In fact, it is a small extension of Simon's 3G planned tour.

The theme of this symposium is to establish a sub-fund of the Simon & Janet Westeros Foundation that focuses on biological gene research. Although it is a sub-fund, it is only the first special budget, and the scale will reach 100 billion US dollars. Injected in five years, the main sponsorship target is the Human Genome Project.

Just as basic materials are the key to a fundamental understanding of a building, genes are the key to unlocking the mysteries of life.

The Human Genome Project, which plans to sequence billions of human gene sequences, was conceived in 1985 and launched in 1990. The United States, Britain, France, Japan and other countries joined forces with a total budget of only 30 billion US dollars.

Simon announced at the seminar that he will spend 100 billion US dollars. No matter what his intentions are, the sensation in the small circle at the scene can be imagined.

Anyone with a little knowledge understands that research in the field of basic science is the key to promoting the progress of civilization.

However, the reality is that because all kinds of basic science fields have the characteristics of huge investment but little output, whether it is at the national level or private capital, the resources invested are very limited.

Everyone is short of money!

If Simon Westeros can really fulfill the promise of 100 billion U.S. dollars, and even continue to add it later, this is no longer a big money maker, but a savior-level existence.

at the seminar.

Faced with the expectations of a large number of experts in related fields, Simon also gave a rare speech. The general theme was that after the end of the Cold War, mankind has entered a rare period of peace, but we cannot fall into ease because of this, and must continue to move forward.The other is the elaboration of the 3G plan and the specific operation objectives of this sub-fund.

Unravel the mysteries of life.

The seminar starts at nine o'clock and lasts for two hours.

Although the news spread quickly in the circle, at the public media level, at least the specific information of this seminar will not be made public. After the meeting is over, the subsequent operation of public opinion will be carried out by the huge media PR of the Westeros family. The team takes over.

The main thing is to create a 'talisman' for Simon.

At the same time as the Columbia University seminar, at ten o'clock in the morning, Tinkerbell's store on Fifth Avenue and East 59th Street officially opened.

This is the plan that Simon transferred to Tinkber at the beginning of the year.

After more than half a year of preparation, there are only three stores in the first batch. Considering the time difference, the opening of the other two stores in Los Angeles and San Francisco will be postponed for three hours. Therefore, this store in New York can be regarded as the world's first Tinkerbell brand flagship store.

As one of the fastest-rising new technology companies in recent years, the opening of the Tinkber store has attracted the attention of a large number of media and brand fans.This morning, the area at the junction of Fifth Avenue and East 59th Street was once congested because too many people gathered.

Media reviews of Tinkerbell's store have also been mixed.

Many media with traditional ideas think that it is very unwise for Tinkber to choose to open brand stores in prime locations such as Manhattan in New York, Beverly Hills in Los Angeles and Pacific Heights in San Francisco, mainly because the cost is too high. High, you may fall into a loss if you don't pay attention.

In addition, some media believe that Tinkber's product range is thin after all, and there is no need to open a flagship store at all.

What's more, although the Internet bubble has burst, a large number of industry media are still optimistic about the development prospects of e-commerce, believing that online consumption will be a mainstream trend in the future.It is also well known that Tinkber Company has focused on e-commerce in recent years, and now it suddenly opens a physical store, which seems to be a step backward.

Even though there were huge crowds of people at the opening day, the mainstream view still thinks that this is only temporary.

Simon just watched quietly.

After all, energy is limited, and for many companies in the Westeros system, Simon is currently acting more as a guide.After finalizing the direction, the specific way to go is still for the enterprise team to operate by itself.In addition, after discovering that the attempt is unsuccessful, Simon will push for the direction that needs to be continued, just like the series of Daenerys' game department.

No matter how much, it depends on whether Simon has extra time, or even whether he is interested.

With Simon's current background accumulation, even if some once-hot projects really fail, it will not damage the foundation of the Westeros system.

If you are not doing well, there is nothing wrong with giving up.

Speaking of Tinkber, online sales are indeed a big trend, but based on the experience from Apple, opening a brand flagship store has a lot of benefits, whether it is sales performance or implicit promotion of the brand.What's more, at this stage, especially overseas, e-commerce in some countries is not even considered a budding, and physical stores are even more important.

Although not at the opening, at noon, Simon showed his face at a celebratory reception thrown by the Tinkerbell East Coast team for the opening of the Fifth Avenue flagship.

Didn't stay long.

After all, Miss C and other high-level executives of Tinkbel are all on the west coast, and here is only a vice president of marketing. Even if the other party is already a high-level executive in Tinkbel, it is still far from Simon, and the guests at the reception are mainly ordinary media people. Can't say much. A 10-minute appearance is already a lot of support, and it can also show Simon's attitude towards Tinkerbell's store.

One o'clock in the afternoon.

Simon rushed to the East Coast headquarters of Daenerys Entertainment on 66th Street, Upper West Side, and had another hour-long video conference.

Mainly about.

After 15 hours of sales breaking through 10 sets, as of 9:24 am East Coast time today, 14 hours after its release, the cumulative sales of this video game, which is basically locked at the phenomenon level, have exceeded 100 sets.If this hot sales trend continues, it is not impossible for the sales to exceed [-] million in the first week.

Therefore, in the video conference, everyone unanimously agreed to add an additional 2000 million US dollars in publicity expenses for follow-up marketing.

Simon once again reminded the management to pay special attention to the problem of plug-ins on the spot.

Too many classic games in memory have been ruined by cheats, and this kind of confrontational action shooting game, if the cheats are rampant, it will be a fatal damage to the player's game experience.

In addition, regarding overseas distribution, Simon focused on South Korea.

There are other purposes besides business here.

Still have to start from the beginning.

The year 1998 was a very unsatisfactory year for Koreans. The Asian financial turmoil in 1997 began to ravage the real economy. The Korean economy was in turmoil. Thousands of large and small businesses closed down, and countless people lost their lives. Work, let alone other things, is just about games. South Korea’s downturn in 1998 accidentally created an industry that is South Korea’s e-sports.

The key is the name.

In the original time and space, there is no need to repeat how popular Blizzard is. It is only the first generation of games, and the cumulative sales of more than ten million levels proves everything.Among them, the overseas sales of China, a small South Korea, unexpectedly accounted for 50% of the market share.

As for the reason, under the economic downturn, a large number of young Koreans began to paralyze themselves with games, which can be said to have emerged as the times require.

Too many people are addicted to games. For the Korean upper class who implement the variant 3S plan or another kind of pacifier plan, it is a joy to see.

If the citizens are obsessed with a game, the chances of trouble will be much smaller.

As a result, major chaebols including Samsung took the initiative to promote various e-sports activities, invested heavily in organizing competitions, and even developed an entire e-sports industry chain, just like the chaebols in the 80s for sports. Actively support that.

This time, after the completion of the former Blizzard team, under the personal promotion of Simon, the development of the game was also launched, and it is expected to be released in the first half of next year.

The brand-new quality is temporarily unknown, but Simon also plans to focus on promoting it in South Korea next year.

This is something.

Now, since it has shown some potential, it is really unreasonable not to put this game in Korea as a 'pacifier'.After all, the next few years will be hard times in South Korea, and some spiritual comfort is needed.

Simon is always happy to help.

Even, in the longer term, referring to past memories, Simon has certain plans for South Korea.

After the Second World War, after several twists and turns, the Koreans first lost their military sovereignty and then lost their economic sovereignty. So, as a balance, it is best to make the cultural sovereignty of the Koreans stronger.

I have taken away a lot of material from you, so I will give you a very, very rich spirit.

as ever.

Oscar, here it is!

Cannes, Berlin, Venice, come again!

Korean wave output, strongly supported!

All kinds of intangible cultural heritage preemptive registration, grab it!

As long as he is willing, spiritually, Simon intends to give the whole universe to South Korea.

Then, when the spirit is satisfied enough, do you Koreans still have the nerve to care about the gains and losses on the material level?After all, the whole universe belongs to Korea, why should it be so vulgar? !

Chapter 1267 Blocked

This Saturday, Manhattan is very lively.

There was a traffic jam on Fifth Avenue in the morning due to the opening of Tinkerbell's store, and then, in the evening, the traffic jam happened again, this time near the famous Lexington Avenue Armory, because of the annual Victoria's Secret charity party .

After the fifth edition last year, the Victoria's Secret show, which lasted for five years and came to an abrupt end at its peak, made many media and fans feel very sad.

Probably the Victoria's Secret brand felt the voice of everyone and gave this grand annual party as a compensation.

So, since the morning, many media and fans have been camping near the Arsenal on Lexington Avenue. As the evening approached, more and more people gathered, blocking the entire street again.

For some careful people, today's two traffic jams that seem to be unwilling to do anything but are actually closely related are really emotional.

Gossip with Princess Diana, big bang, $100 billion funding for genetic research, opening of Tinkerbell store, Victoria's Secret annual charity party, and busy Thanksgiving schedule... The world can't hold Simon Westeros anymore, and they are all starting to block up.

Outside the arsenal.

A large number of security guards and policemen were in the concierge car passageway that was difficultly carved out by the crowd. In an extended Bentley, the 19-year-old Shen Gui didn't have any insight, and was only nervous.

This is the biggest event she has participated in since she became a Simon woman. The team around her is working around the party that is already close at hand. Next, she will be combined with several other models from China to do a Similar to the marketing of the fashion circle 'China Gang'.

Not to be lost.

Not to mention anything else, but she was wearing this high-end Versace haute couture dress that could buy a villa in Beijing, which made Shen Gui a little trembling.She was specially reminded that if the trillions are damaged and dirty, she can only buy them out of her own pocket.

35 million dollars!

Where can I afford my poor little purse?

Therefore, even though she knew that there was a man behind her back, Shen Gui was still cautious.

The concierge car stopped at the entrance of the red carpet outside the arsenal, which was not too long. Several staff members in the car checked it for her, and after confirming that it was correct, they informed the driver to open the door.

The car door opened, and the sound of restless cheers came in immediately.

And, the intense winter chill.

Fire and ice alternate.

Shen Gui, who had just stepped forward, was agitated by the atmosphere and the chill, and almost subconsciously retreated. She quickly took a deep breath, and then mustered up her courage again, and stepped out of the car door.

colder.

Hotter.

It was a neutralization.

According to the rehearsal received in advance, try to relax as much as possible and move forward slowly.

Her eyes looked around naturally. Although she was not as tall as Jiang Mi, who was 187 centimeters, she was tall after all. Coupled with high heels, her vision could easily look out of the surrounding crowd.

so many people!

I felt emotional again in my heart, and even had some doubts, it was just a party, how could there be so many people?

However, this is not the time to be distracted.

This time we came to North America together, the domestic manager An Xiaohan, who was wearing a staff sign, was at the edge of the red carpet, and he was gesturing to her as he walked along. , to pose in front of a photographer directly arranged here.

A very important promotional material in the plan.

Keeping a smile, she walked slowly to the area where the media gathered near the door. Compared with the two guests who just passed by, the intensity of the flashlights surrounding her was much weaker. Shen Gui, who was also delicate in mind, was inevitably disappointed, but she also understood that she It is already lucky for a Chinese girl to be able to stand here, and it is impossible to expect too much.

An Xiaohan came to a photographer with an Asian face outside the fence step by step. Shen Gui also confirmed the target, and posed several poses towards that side in a row, until she caught a glimpse of a guest behind him approaching from the corner of her eye, and then slowed down again. step forward.

Entering the arsenal, An Xiaohan immediately greeted her, and said with a smile: "Relax, you have performed very well, just now Jiang Mi, huh, I thought she would be more stable than you. Don't say anything, hurry up, just go I miss you, the four of you are going to take a group photo in front of the media wall."

Shen Gui was a little curious about what happened to Jiang Mi just now.

A tall girl of 187 cm, with a glamorous and heroic appearance, Jiang Mi should have been the most qualified among the three of Qin Buzui and the others if she wasn't a little too tall.On weekdays, Jiang Mi also looks proud and indifferent.

However, now is not the time to ask.

It was carefully explained in advance that outside the red carpet, there are only ordinary media who actively come to join in the fun. After entering the venue, there is an official media area and signature wall inside, and then there is the party hall.

As for the four of them An Xiaohan talked about, they were Jian Xin, Tao Yuelei, Jiang Mi and Shen Gui herself.

The other Zhu Momo and Qin Buzui did not come.

Shen Gui is not familiar with Zhu Momo, but Qin Buzui surprised her a little.In the initial contact, Shen Gui thought that Qin Buzui should be the one who was most eager to climb up among the three of them, and even regarded him as a threat.

However, all of a sudden, I don't know what happened, and when she returned to China, the girl seemed to drop everything suddenly and went to the National People's University to go to school.

Renmin University of China.
