The Boeing 767 landed at San Jose Airport in the Bay Area in just over half an hour.

Simon and Natasha Henstridge walked out of the front cabin talking and laughing, and Miss A and Raoul Bradley went up to meet them, and everyone got off the plane together.

Raul Bradley quietly looked at Natasha Henstridge. The 19-year-old girl looked at the man beside her with joy, admiration, flattery and a little not so secret awe.

Obviously, the two of them got along very happily in the half hour just now, and there was no sense of strangeness that they only wanted to meet for the first time.

Bradley is not surprised by this.

A man like Simon Westeros can get a lot of women to post him without any action.If you are a little more gentlemanly, considerate and humorous, it is even easier for women.

Everyone left the airport, and Simon drove to Woodside. Girl A stayed on, sent Raul Bradley away, and brought Natasha Henstridge to the Palo Alto, which is owned by Simon. Another property in the affluent area of ​​Sutton.

Although she felt a little bit resentful about her boss's act of raising the vase, Alison still handled all kinds of things dutifully. In order to avoid unnecessary troubles in the future, everything that should be handed over to the vase needs to be clearly explained, which is actually beneficial to everyone.

After a simple arrangement, Miss A took Natasha Henstridge to dine at a high-end restaurant near Atherton, and at the same time began to instruct a vase of various self-cultivation.

The female assistant didn't like the fact that Simon's maid was always showing up at Woodside's villa, and Girl A spent most of the weekend tuning Simon's new vase.

While accompanying the female assistant, Simon took time to attend some meetings of several companies as usual on weekends.

After the launch of 8list in August, a series of uproar caused by the fraud case has been completely settled recently.

After entanglement for a period of time, the six victims of the original fraud case voluntarily withdrew the lawsuit.

Privately, the parties also have no other settlement agreement.

This is the inevitable result.

If Eaglet Co. backs down in this incident, once it loses the case and becomes a case, it will definitely be involved in endless troubles in the future.

Even a private settlement for compensation will not work.

Because it will also become a reference for latecomers.

Therefore, Igret was aggressive in arresting fraud gangs, and faced the class action of six victims seeking additional compensation.

If you want to fight a lawsuit, then keep fighting, even if it goes to the Supreme Court of the United States.

Eaglet has fulfilled all its due obligations and wants additional compensation. Sorry, this is impossible.

At the same time, compared with Eaglet, which has strong financial resources, the six victims obviously cannot afford the protracted and high legal fees, so they can only give up in the end.

On Monday morning, after seeing off Natasha Henstridge, Girl A met her boss with a signed non-disclosure agreement. Instead of returning to Los Angeles, she flew to New York temporarily.

There have been some twists and turns in the construction of the mansions of Westeros.

In the past weekend, an obscure local newspaper in New York suddenly exposed the massive use of illegal labor by the construction team of the Westeros Building, and at the same time questioned the safety of the construction site of the building. There were at least six safety incidents that left two workers severely and permanently disabled, although no fatalities were reported.

At the end of the article, it also pointed the finger at David Dinkins, the mayor of New York who is sprinting for re-election, and criticized David Dinkins for irresponsibly approving the large and inappropriate project of Westeros Building in exchange for Campaign finance support for the Westeros system.

This year is another election year for the mayor of New York.

Incumbent Mayor David Dinkins took on former New York City Attorney Rudy Giuliani for the second time.

In the election four years ago, Rudy Giuliani lost to David Dinkins, in which the campaign funds and media support provided by the Westeros system played a big role.

This time, Rudy Giuliani pointed the finger at David Dinkins' behind-the-scenes Westeros system, the 'big benefactor' from the beginning of the election.

The Westeros system has become more and more popular in recent years. When the media and the public marvel at the rapid growth of Simon's personal wealth, there are inevitably more and more criticisms of this latest rising consortium.

David Dingkins is a very experienced politician, and perhaps he has enough enthusiasm for his re-election. Therefore, Dingkins decisively chose to draw a clear line with the Westeros system, and even retreated from the Westeros system. Some campaign funds related to the Los Angeles system.

Simon had already expected the fickleness of politicians, but he did not expect Dinkins to be so straightforward.

The opponent even disrupted the layout of the Westeros system in New York politics.

You know, the Westeros system originally planned to continue to support Dinkins, but the other party suddenly defected, and the Westeros system could not switch to other alternatives at all, unless he switched to the Republican Party, which obviously would not work.

David Dinkins took the initiative to draw a clear line, and the Westeros system did not step up to the pole.

However, for a world-class political, economic, and cultural city like New York, many subsidiaries of the Westeros system are headquartered here, so it is impossible to give up infiltrating the city's political circles. Simon finally decided to All the resources originally planned to be invested in Dingkins were transferred to the competition for New York City Councilors.

The final vote in the mayoral election will be held in early November.

The sudden arrival of the local media in New York can be said to kill two birds with one stone. It not only creates trouble for the construction of the Westeros Building project that Simon values ​​very much, but also hits David Dinkins' approval rating.

Therefore, when the small newspaper named "Manhattan Metropolis Daily" provoked the topic, newspapers such as "New York Times" and "Daily News" began to follow up.

What Simon didn't expect is still behind.

This morning, without communicating with the Westeros system at all, David Dinkins clarified at his weekly press conference that he had no interest in the Westeros system, and publicly stated that , The New York City Labor Department will join the construction workers' union to investigate issues such as the safety of the Westeros Building construction site.

There is a three-hour time difference between the east and west coasts.

When Simon departed from the West Coast to New York, at the request of the New York City Government and the local workers' union, all the workers at the Westeros Building construction site had been evacuated.

Westeros Mansions were forced to stop work.

For other real estate companies, it is not impossible for the company to be dragged down if a billion-dollar project suddenly stops working.

As the voting date approaches, David Dinkins is already showing a clear disadvantage to Rudy Giuliani.

The sudden attack on the Westeros Building project, in Simon's view, even seemed to give it a go.

From the fact that the incumbent mayor's speech at the press conference only focused on the safety of the construction site of the Westeros Building and did not mention illegal workers, it can be seen that the other party was not on a whim.

New immigrants have always been the basic base for the Democratic Party to win over as much as possible.

During David Dinkins' re-election campaign, he also tried his best to promote the diversity of New York's population during his tenure.

It is self-evident what the 'diversification' here specifically refers to.

Therefore, although illegal workers do not yet have federal voting rights, if this matter is investigated at the same time, it will inevitably offend the immigrant community in New York City.

The shrewd calculations of established politicians are nothing short of brilliant.

On the plane to New York, Simon only sneered after learning about a series of situations in more detail.

That's how Hillary in my memory lost her presidency.

In the 2008 general election, Wall Street originally supported Hillary. As a result, this political woman saw the hostility of the media and the public to Wall Street because of the economic crisis. She just took political donations from Goldman Sachs, Morgan and other investment banks, and pointed her finger at Wall Street in a blink of an eye. Jumping up and down to encourage Congress to enact stricter regulations on Wall Street.

The final result was that Wall Street turned one-sidedly, and Hillary did not even get the position of the party candidate.

David Dinkins behaved exactly as Simon remembered Hillary.

In other words, the thinking and behavior patterns of politicians have always been like this.

Of course, there must be more other influencing factors in the two events. Hillary does not necessarily lose the support of Wall Street to completely lose the chance to hit the presidency, and David Dinkins probably does not only want to be re-elected. Just turn against the Westeros system.

With the rapid expansion of the Westeros system, Simon became the world's first [-]-billion-dollar billionaire, the Internet industry's increasingly large output value scale, and the confrontation between Igret and traditional paper media...

If it were really just safety concerns and illegal labor that shut down Westeros mansions, Simon would probably just hand things over to James Raybould.

It was the awareness of other entanglements that might be involved that made him feel compelled to come to the East Coast.

Simon has always been a person who attaches great importance to preventing the incipient progress, and understands the truth that the embankment of a thousand miles collapses in an ant's nest.

The suspension of the Westeros building will certainly not drag down the Westeros system, but he will not let this matter continue to develop or even expand. If other joints are involved, it must be sorted out as soon as possible.

After getting off the plane, Simon rushed to the headquarters of Westeros in Midtown Manhattan. It was already past five o'clock in the afternoon on the east coast. James Raybould and Tishman Speyer CEO Jerry Spier were still waiting for him.

The shutdown of the Westeros building was most seriously affected by the Tishman Speyer company that undertook the project. Both illegal labor and construction safety are the areas that the other party needs to be responsible for. Westeros can even do well in this regard. count as a victim.

James and Speyer had been negotiating with representatives of the New York City government all day.

Everyone sat down in a small conference room, and Jerry Speer, a round-faced man in his mid-fifties, said with a wry smile: "This time is really troublesome, Simon, and we didn't expect it to happen."

Simon had an understanding smile on his face, but he was not moved by Jerry Spier's complaints.

Tishman Speyer is a time-honored company with a history of over a hundred years, and the Speyer family is deeply rooted in New York.David Dinkins didn't even call Westeros in advance for this unexpected incident, but Simon can be sure that the Speyer family must have received the news in advance.

Girl A brought in the coffee herself.

Simon took the coffee cup, rubbed it lightly in the palm of his hand, and said, "Jerry, I handed over the construction of the Westeros Tower to Tishman Speyer out of trust. The problem seems to be your problem."

Hearing what Simon said, Jerry Spier also found that although the face of the young man on the opposite side was smiling, there was no smile in his eyes. How many people died during the building's construction?"

Simon shook his head.

Jerry Spier said: "Because of the tight construction schedule, although there are only 410 accidental deaths in the 5-day construction process of the Empire State Building, in fact, this number is more than 10 times higher. The construction process of large-scale construction projects has never It is impossible to be foolproof. In the two years since the construction of the Westeros Building, only a few people were injured, and there were no fatal accidents, which is enough to show that there is no safety problem in our construction environment."

Simon nodded: "I understand."

"So," Jerry Spier smiled again and spread his hands, "You must also know that this matter has nothing to do with Tishman Speyer."

Simon was still stroking the coffee cup in his hand: "So, Jerry, when will the building be able to resume work?"

Jerry Spier looked at the young man opposite, and couldn't help but add a bit of playfulness in his tone, and said: "This requires you to communicate with the New York City government, and maybe you have to deal with the media."

Simon continued to ask, "Where is Tishman Speyer?"

Jerry Spier felt something strange from Simon's obviously calm tone, paused for a moment, and said: "Simon, we are actually implicated, you should understand this."

"I understand," Simon nodded again, and said, "Since this is the case, according to our original agreement, whether it is the use of illegal workers or the investigation of safety accidents during the construction process, the responsibility lies with Tishman Speyer. Mr. Speyer, you Now you can leave, Westeros' legal team will contact Tishman Speyer to terminate the contract, initiate a lawsuit and seek compensation."

Jerry Spier was stunned for a moment before he finally realized what Simon had just said, but he quickly calmed down, staring at the young man on the other side of the conference table and said: "Simon, it's not good for you to make things bigger." any good."

"Or, another option," Simon said coldly, with an easy-talking look, but his eyes became sharper, "I don't care what method Tishman Speyer uses. Within three days, the project must resume work, or I will replace it." Contractors, the money that Tishman Speyer makes from Westeros, I will do whatever it takes to get it back doubled."

Jerry Spier threatened: "If you do this, I can guarantee that the Westeros Tower will never be built again."

Simon didn't care about the other party's threats, and said tit for tat: "Since you can guarantee that the Westeros Tower will never be built, you can probably guarantee that the project will resume within three days. In addition, I can also assure you that if the maintenance The Strow Tower cannot be built, and as long as Westeros exists, I will target Tishman Speyer until one of us goes bankrupt."

When Simon said these words, Jerry Spier did not fight back immediately, and his expression became cloudy.

A construction and real estate company like Tishman Speyer would not be able to develop and grow without a deep foundation. As the headquarters of Tishman Speyer, New York, this company does have a network of contacts far deeper than the Westeros system.

In the past few days, Tishman Speyer did get the news in advance.

Jerry Spier originally had the mentality of watching the excitement, and perhaps at the critical moment he could get more benefits from the rich Westeros.Otherwise, if Tishman Speyer made an early move, there would be no negative news about Westeros Tower in the media at all.

After careful calculation, Tishman Speyer does have a lot of responsibility for this matter, and it is also obliged to clean up the mess after the incident. However, Jerry Spier originally felt that these should not be games that Tishman Speyer needs to participate in.

I just didn't expect that when Simon Westero arrived in New York, he would directly point the finger at them.

Really falling out?

Losing this project will definitely damage Tishman Speyer's reputation in the industry.

If we become enemies with the Westeros system again, think about the threat that this young man just faced. Which one will go bankrupt first, Westeros or Tishman Speyer?

He didn't dare to gamble.

At the same time, I also thought about the past deeds of this young man.

This is a fierce guy who dares to knock off the five legs of the enemy in one step.

This is a ruthless person who stopped the release of a ten-million-level record because his partner concealed the income.

even.

This is also a madman with a history of mental illness.

Chapter 577 Debt Collection (Revised)

Jerry Spier left the Westeros headquarters almost in a state of embarrassment.

James Raybould sent Speyer out, returned to the conference room, and said to Simon who was sitting where he was reading an evening paper that Miss A had just delivered: "Actually, there is no need to be so blunt."

Simon spread the newspaper on the desk, looked at James and said, "Jim, I am a fat sheep in the eyes of many people, right?"

James didn't know how to answer for a moment.

Simon didn't wait for the other party's answer, and said to himself: "That's the truth, I don't mind if they treat me like a fat sheep, as long as I cooperate with Simon Westeros, it is indeed easier to make a lot of money. However, if someone thinks that I really It's just a fat sheep at the mercy of others. I don't need to pay enough in return for taking my money. I even turn my face against people. Not only will I let them spit out everything that ate me, I will also make them Everything that existed was destroyed."

During the bidding process of the Westeros Building project, Simon took into account Tishman Speyer's influence in New York before contracting the construction of the Westeros Building to the other party.In order to ensure the quality of the construction of the Westeros Building, the quotation is not only not haggling, but rather generous.

This incident, based on the background of the Speyer family in New York, was actually capable of stopping it from the very beginning.

Not only did the other party not do this, they didn't even notify the Westeros company. Instead, they had an attitude of watching the fun, which made Simon completely intolerable.

After all, the other party just regarded him as a fat sheep, an upstart who lacked background.Thinking that he took the benefits and ignored them, Simon has nothing to do with them, and may even give more benefits to the other party to help coordinate.

It was on the way to New York that I figured this out. Simon was so rude to Jerry Spier just now, and even went straight to tit for tat.

As for David Dinkins, Simon also didn't intend to just let it go.

When supporting David Dinkins to run for mayor of New York, the Westeros system actually did not have many practical demands, and it was more just to expand its influence in the political world.

Simon doesn't expect much in return from the other party, but he will never tolerate a politician turning his face and denying others easily.
