America's Road to Wealth

The follow-up impact of the ice storm disaster on New York is continuous, and the 29 relief stations set up by the government are already overcrowded.

The consumption habits of Americans coupled with the high prices and high housing prices in New York are doomed to the fact that ordinary people and low-level people here have almost no ability to resist risks.

It's okay in normal times, and the Moonlight Clan can survive a busy month.

In the face of such a sudden disaster, coupled with the capitalist government, it is not a big patriarch. The assistance that will be provided, at most, is to ensure that you try not to die of cold and starvation.

Sometimes even this protection is not available.

In other respects, the human beings here are as particular about natural selection as the jungle society. If you don't have the skills yourself, you can't blame the government for starving or freezing to death.

Therefore, this sudden severe ice storm made all ordinary people in New York feel the bone-chilling cold, and it also added lingering haze and sadness to the coming Christmas in 2003.

Whether it's for a show or for votes. Ms. Carolyn Rehnquist, a candidate for the Elephant Party for the District Attorney of Manhattan, New York, joined hands with the mayor, Mr. Bloomberg. The kindness of Ms. Lorraine and Mr. Mayor undoubtedly brought a lot of warmth to the homeless in this cold and helpless period.

Of course, many media under Abel will naturally follow up and report the whole process. It is not the practice of American philanthropy to do good deeds without leaving names.

Looking at other rich people, everyone knows when they are not shouting. This is not only to promote charity, but more importantly, to tell everyone that I am very rich, but I have also been spared no effort to give back to the society.

To be honest, Abel used to have no concept of philanthropy. From the beginning, he wanted to avoid taxes and gain a good reputation. After accumulating wealth to a certain height, he had some ideas of philanthropy in his heart.

Because of his idea, his charitable fund has become the one with the most money among the many charitable funds in the United States.

Many middle-class elites in the United States are well aware of this. So if you want to pick the one they like the most among the American giants, Abel Smith will definitely be ranked first.

And through skillful media control, this charitable donation is presented to the world from different angles.

The local people in New York affected by the disaster will see Caroline, a kind lady, and the kind-hearted Mr. Mayor bring them warmth.

Other viewers outside of New York saw Mr. Smith on TV and on the news, doing good again.

In short, after this ice storm, in terms of charity, there are naturally Caroline and Bloomberg, two members of the Hydra Gang who need more opportunities to show their faces and maintain a good image, rushing to the front line.

Abel himself became busy over the next few days.

After all, it was the end of the year and Christmas was just around the corner, and the company had too many things for him to deal with.

He can be a hands-off shopkeeper and hand over most of the things to his subordinates, such as year-end bonuses, promotions and other welfare matters for middle and high-level managers.

But Abel has always believed that "name and utensils cannot be faked from others".

If even this kind of personnel and financial power is delegated to subordinates. Then don't blame your subordinates for being able to compete with you one day, or even empty you out.

Therefore, Abel has always chosen to do this kind of thing of gaining the loyalty and favor of his subordinates by himself.

Therefore, in the past few days, the floor of the chairman's office in the Smith Tower, which has always been relatively quiet, has ushered in the busiest period. People come and go without interruption. Meeting.

The main reason is that just a few large M \u0026 A projects have almost reached the end stage at this time. It is impossible for his boss to let go of such a big plan involving tens of billions of funds.

The cooperation with the Mitsui Zaibatsu in American entertainment, the integration of Anadarko Petroleum Company, the acquisition of the railway company, the intervention of the hospital group and so on.

Abel, who has rarely been so busy, couldn't stand it with his extraordinary energy after a few days. Just because he has been screened by various departments and think tanks, there are so many important documents that he needs to review, which makes his brain hurt. Constantly complaining about his original photographic memory may be a pitfall.

Fortunately, there are only a few days at the end of each year, so he needs to be so busy. For the rest of the time, it's time to shake hands or you can shake hands.

Of course, even if it is so busy. During the lunch break at noon, Abel can still take a break from his busy schedule. Spend some time fueling, overhauling and maintaining Amanda and Lydia's two Hurst supercars.

When I got home at night, there were naturally Britney and Keira who were waiting to have their second child. So he is really not only busy at work, but also has no free time in life.

At the end of the year, everyone is like this. What, you're not, you don't? Then who told you that you are not Abe Smith.

"How many meetings are there in the afternoon? I want to go directly to vacation. This kind of life is really boring." Abel closed his eyes, lay lazily in Lydia's arms, and gave him a soft voice on the other side. Amanda, who was massaging, grumbled.

December 10th, at noon.

Once again, I used my lunch break to maintain the two Hearst luxury cars in my garage. After working for an hour, I carefully wiped their whole bodies until they were shiny, especially the headlights and the rear of the car, which were almost shining up.

"If you're tired, just take a rest." Lydia's fair skin was blushed, and there was a clear gleam between her brows. Whispering Liabel's hair, he said softly.

Amanda, who was in a similar state next to her, didn't say much, but increased the intensity a little to make Abel feel more comfortable.

"Hey, no, there is no way. I have to decide many things at the end of the year. Several merger and acquisition plans have been launched in succession, each involving tens of billions of dollars... By the way, Lydia and Amanda, Are you interested in returning to work at Smith Media?"

"I plan to set up a European department and an Asian department to be responsible for the business operations of these two regions. In order to show my importance to these two major markets, the heads of these two departments are also entitled to participate in the rotation of the CEO of the headquarters. In other words In other words, as long as you become the person in charge of these two major overseas companies, you will have the opportunity to become the rotating CEO of Smith Media Group."

Abel arched his head and said to the two with a comfortable hum.

And what he said made the beautiful eyes of the Hester sisters light up.
