Janet moved quickly and flew to Melbourne with her female assistant and three little guys after the weekend.

Jennifer didn't want to go to Australia that much, mainly worried about embarrassment when facing the Johnston family, and she also hoped to stay by Simon's side. Simon and his wife persuaded together, and the female assistant reluctantly agreed.

Veronica also followed.

This is something Simon and Janet are reluctant to do. There are many things to deal with these days. What Simon needs most is someone who is absolutely reliable.

Veronica was very insistent on returning to Australia, and said that this was her original itinerary plan, but when Janet asked the reason, she was reluctant to explain with a flickering expression.

Simon did not object in the end.

Before leaving in the morning, the female assistant repeatedly reminded Simon not to go to the Oscars at night.

Today is March 21, and the 66th Academy Awards are held tonight.

It is not suitable for public appearances recently. Even if he won a best screenwriter nomination for "The Lion King" again, Simon has no intention of attending the awards ceremony. Naturally, he agreed with the advice of the female assistant.

This time back to Australia, the women and children did not take the Boeing 767 that can fly directly to Melbourne at home, but booked the first-class cabin of an ordinary civil aviation Boeing 747. Simon admitted that he was a little oversensitive, but insisted on being careful. If Janet didn't think it was unnecessary, he even wanted women and children to fly to Australia on separate planes.

The content of the assassin's suicide note in the last assassination incident gave Simon a great reminder.

If Simon does have an accident, according to the federal inheritance tax rate of 50%, the U.S. government will make a huge windfall, and many people may even have a "feast".

Simon had whispered with Janet over the weekend that he would soon revise a will.

After the will is revised, if something does happen, Simon does not intend to leave any of his assets to the U.S. government unless the top federal officials completely tear their faces and play a big buck in front of the world.

Of course, this is just in case.

The key is to strengthen one's own strength, so that some people will not dare to do anything out of the ordinary even if they think about it.

Two ongoing undercover investigations, the exposure of the London girl and the assassination a few days ago, have progressed.

The investigation team conducted a more detailed investigation of the Assassin's apartment, which had been neglected, and unexpectedly discovered unfamiliar fingerprints that did not exist in the other party's known social circle. , is actually the biggest flaw.

In addition, the bank account of the assassin, the history of contact with people in the past period, etc., are all important traces that can be continuously traced.

Simon, on the other hand, was handed a report on the London girl exposure by Martin Dienham, one of the heads of the family's intelligence team, on Sunday.

The mastermind behind the perseverance to reveal the news of the London Girls Team to the British media did not surprise Simon at all. It was the Hearst family.

The last time people around the Westeros family tried to expose the details of the female assistant's pregnancy, Simon gave a warning, but the Hearst family did not stop. Although they dared not reach out to people around Simon, they continued to pass the "San Francisco Chronicle" When the family media launched an attack on the Westeros system, the London girl incident this time was still a small trick used by the other party.

Not only that, Congressman David Melrose, a congressman supported by the Hearst family, has recently been pushing the House of Representatives to set up a special investigation committee to launch an investigation into the Westeros system.

Simon initially hoped to maintain a friendly attitude with a long-established media family such as the Hearst family.

Even though there have been some small frictions between the two parties in the past two years, Simon has maintained a business-as-a-business attitude and has not interfered with the cooperation between the subsidiaries in the system and the Hearst Group.

It's a pity that the Hearst family, who have been strong for nearly a century, did not realize that many things have changed with time. After a little conflict with the Westeros system, they continued to maintain tit-for-tat with their usual arrogance, which eventually led to the two sides. The contradiction cannot be resolved.

Since the other party is now like a maggot in the tarsus, Simon is no longer polite, and no longer leaves room for it.

War is it.

On Monday morning's temporary Westeros system high-level conference call, Simon officially announced his decision to require all subsidiaries in the entire Westeros system that have cooperative relations with the Hearst Group's media to sever their cooperation with each other. .

Except for a few relatively serious media such as the "San Francisco Chronicle", the media platforms under the Hearst Group are more inclined to fashion and entertainment. Many famous fashion magazines such as "Cosmopolitan" are assets of the Hearst Group, so no matter Whether it was Daenerys Entertainment or Melisandre, or even various other companies in the Westeros system, they had been advertising in a large number of newspapers and magazines under the Hearst Group.

In 1993, the Westeros system alone invested a total of $65 million in advertising spending on Hearst Group media.

Starting March 21, all of these spending ceased.

Not only that, but in the fields of technology, fashion, and entertainment that the Westeros system can affect, relevant partners will be required to choose sides.

There are many traditional media giants in North America, but there is only one Westeros system.

So choose

!

The Hearst Group's turnover in 1993 reached 2.11 billion US dollars, and the advertising revenue of 65 million US dollars from the Westeros system accounted for more than 3% of the other party's total annual revenue. This is definitely not a dispensable share. .

Moreover, if it is said that the complete loss of this part of the income cannot achieve the effect of hurting the Hearst Group, it is impossible for the Westeros system to use its own influence to unite all partners to attack the Hearst Group in an all-round way. Let the other party remain indifferent.

It's not over yet.

The Hearst Group has also begun to deploy the Internet in the past two years, and has continuously invested in a number of new technology companies. The Hearst family was initially reluctant to cooperate with Igret on news content, but recently they quietly opened the electronic version of the San Francisco Chronicle.

Starting from March 21, whether it is the three mainstream portals of ygritte, aol and msn, or the google search engine and facebook social network under Igritte, the new technology companies and Internet websites that are implicated in the Hearst family , will adopt a ruthless blocking strategy.

On the same day, after Simon himself made the decision on Saturday and completed consultations with the New York Times Group on Sunday, the Igret Portal and The New York Times simultaneously published the news of the cooperation between the two parties on their respective media platforms.

Igrete not only announced the general terms of the cooperation between the two parties on the portal homepage, reiterating that Igreat had no intention of monopolizing Internet media, but also launched the official website of the New York Times on the subsequent news entries. An article about the Clinton administration's push for a ban on assault weapons will be directed to the official New York Times website.

The Boston Globe, which The New York Times Group just acquired last year, will also launch an electronic edition in the near future, and will also receive traffic support from the Igreit portal.

In addition to news content sharing, two other cooperations have also attracted strong attention in the industry.

The New York Times Group has taken a 15% stake in broadcast, an online radio station and audio resource site, for $30 million.

This business is too expensive for many people who see it for the first time.

In fact, The New York Times Group initially thought so.

After learning about the details of broadcast's more than 3 million registered users just a year after its launch and the future prospects of the site, the industry generally realized that the New York Times Group may have taken a big advantage.

Personal radio, audio books, educational courses, online music, etc., a little analysis shows how huge the market potential is.

Moreover, the broadcast website also announced the general plan for the possible opening of audio download services in the future through the Igreit portal on the same day. Whether it is to place advertisements in the audio content or adopt a VIP payment strategy, it means that broadcast has explored a set of very feasible solutions. business model.

This is even more commendable for most websites that are still trying to win users without considering the prospect of profitability at this stage.

Rapidly growing users and a viable business model are just these two advantages, combined with the rapid explosion of the Internet industry, which means that the IPO of the broadcast will be carried out one to two years later, and the market value is likely to easily reach the level of 1 billion US dollars. At that time, the seemingly expensive $30 million investment of the New York Times Group was enough to easily double it many times.

Of course, the potential earnings for Igret are significantly higher.

Everyone can only be envious and jealous.

At the current stage of Silicon Valley, even if you can offer a higher price, most of the high-quality Internet projects will be easily snatched away by Igret. Other Internet companies of the same type are far behind.

Another authorization for Internet streaming video technology also caught many eyes.

Even if no specific projects have been announced, the phenomenon-level social effects brought about by the recent live broadcast of girls in London shows the huge commercial potential of Internet video sites.

The cooperation between the two parties was reached, and the New York Times Group also reciprocated.

In fact, dozens of newspapers under the New York Times Group have reduced their targeted articles on the Westeros system since the negotiations entered their final stages.

The official cooperation agreement was finalized on Sunday, and Arthur Salzberg Jr., the head of the Salzberg family behind the New York Times Group, also wrote a letter to Simon himself, saying that the New York Times Group would be in print media public opinion. Provide as much support as possible to the Westeros system.

After Simon asked people to comb through all 32 newspapers under the New York Times Group on Monday, although there were still a few follow-up criticism, they did not find any more sensitive and fiercely targeted articles. Not only that, but there are many reports that speak for the Westeros system.

The public relations team of the Westeros family also reached out to some senior executives of the New York Times Group on Monday, and plans to conduct further cooperation in public opinion guidance.

Simon appreciates the sincerity shown by the Salzberg family, even stronger than the old fox Murdoch, who is close to the surface and elusive. As long as this cooperation can continue, he does not mind giving more benefits to the New York Times Group.

Therefore, when receiving a letter specially sent by Arthur Salzberg Jr. in the morning, Simon wrote a paper reply in person, expressing his optimism about this cooperation and his hope to go to the West Coast next time. Able to visit the Salzberg family.

On the other hand, with today's agreement between Igret and the New York Times Group

The news of the cooperation was announced, and the most important Los Angeles Times Group on the West Coast sent Simon a cooperation test through Peter Butler, who had jumped from the "Los Angeles Times" company to the Igret portal.

The old fox Rupert Murdoch also called Simon's office again, half-truly complaining that Simon was too stingy with News Corporation and gave too many benefits to the New York Times Group.

After announcing the cooperation with the New York Times Group in the morning, and completely deciding to go to war with the Hearst family, Simon's energy in the afternoon turned to politics again.

Joseph Schlapp flew to Los Angeles from Washington yesterday, and he didn't leave after talking with Simon for an afternoon on Sunday. The two continued on Monday afternoon in Simon's office at Daenerys Studios to discuss the near-term challenges facing the Westeros system. political situation.

In Washington the other day, Schlapp had contacts with the White House.

Clinton did not make a clear statement on the general adoption of the Westeros system by the congressional candidates facing the midterm elections in the near future. platform.

Simon knew all about the Clintons' rambunctious properties.

If the Westeros system cannot solve the various crises recently faced by itself as soon as possible, Clinton will definitely take the initiative to "comply with public opinion" for the sake of his own approval rate.

In fact, the Justice Department had already held a closed-door meeting on Friday on whether an investigation into the alleged monopoly of the three new tech companies of the Westeros System 'Cisco-AOL-Igreit' was needed, and the Clinton-appointed justice Minister Janet Reynolds hosted it herself.

This is already a signal.

The results of the closed-door meeting were not announced. The White House just expressed its attitude to Simon and the public. When necessary, the White House will definitely take action.

On the other hand, the series of bills promoted by the Westeros system are unlikely to make any progress in the short term.

Simon simply took the initiative to pause.

The Hearst family-backed House of Representatives David Merroth's proposal to form a special committee of inquiry to investigate the Westeros system has also formally submitted an application.

Simon has realized that a formal antitrust investigation is almost inevitable. In order not to lose the initiative in public opinion, the White House will definitely take action before the establishment of the special investigation committee of the House of Representatives, otherwise it will inevitably be attacked by political opponents. Therefore, even if the Westeros system does make all kinds of concessions now, it will only gain an inch.

In this case, Simon intends to further strengthen the 'savage growth' plan.

After all, even if the Internet assets held by the Westeros system are really split in the future, all Simon needs to give up at that time is only control, and he can still hold a large amount of equity in each company after the split. At that time, just like the former Rockefeller family, the Standard Oil Company was dismantled, and Rockefeller's wealth increased significantly because of the large number of shares in the company after the split.

As long as these wealth are in hand, it is not impossible for the Westeros system to re-integrate the Internet industry in the future.

Divided for a long time must be together, long together must be divided.

This is the trend.

Standard Oil, which was split into pieces, has now been reintegrated into a handful of energy giants, and further integration will follow. At-t, which was split ten years ago, also started a new round of integration. The future Internet is destined to be the field of super technology giants.

The last topic of the afternoon is still the midterm elections.

The 'sniper plan' formulated according to the previous list and the maintenance plan for the Westeros family's political 'basic plate' will be launched at the same time.

Whether the two plans can be successfully completed is crucial to whether the next stage of the Westeros system has enough say in Washington.

So this morning's choice by the Igreit Portal to cite The New York Times' news that the Clinton administration is pushing for an offensive weapons ban isn't for nothing.

On the one hand, this news shows the official cooperation between Igret and the New York Times Group on content, and it is also a reminder to the National Rifle Association that if the other party is unwilling to cooperate in this year's midterm election process, instead Choosing to oppose the Westeros system, then, it is not impossible for the Igreit Portal to choose a gun ban position in the future.

The National Rifle Association in Simon's memory has become less and less influential in the Internet age, and a large part of the reason is the Internet.

Shootings in the United States have been very frequent.

In the age of traditional media, news about shootings can easily be confined to one state and one location, so it usually doesn't have much of a sensational wide-ranging impact.

In the age of the Internet, every time a shooting occurs, it will be easily seen by the public across the country and even the world. If the media secretly contributes to the flames, no matter how determined the robbers are, they will face the threat of shootings that seem to happen all the time. , will gradually change their position.

Simon and Joseph Schlapp did not finish their day's work until just after six o'clock in the afternoon.

Across the city, at the Dorothy Chandler Theater in downtown Los Angeles, the 66th Academy Awards ceremony has begun.

The two had a simple dinner together in the company's in-house restaurant, and sent Schlapp off, because the women and children had gone to Melbourne, and Simon simply didn't go home and continued to deal with some recent Daenerys Entertainment in the studios office. Business, by the way, wait for the Melisandre party at the Sunset Tower Hotel after nine o'clock to show off a little.
