The Goddess Shines on America
Chapter 272 Go home,
The weather at Los Angeles International Airport is fine, even in the cold and windy February season, the body feels far more comfortable than the Washington metropolitan area on the northeast coast. As early as on the plane, Alice took off the thin sweater under the down jacket. When she finally walked out of the airport, the small suitcase she was dragging was heavier than before.
"Hey, Alice!"
As soon as she saw her daughter walking out of the street, Sophie, who was waiting on the side of the street, waved and shouted: "Here!"
"Oh, Mom~"
First saw the red Cadillac at home, and then saw the mother wearing a brown windbreaker, Alice smiled sweetly, picked up the suitcase with one hand, and ran over quickly: "Aren't you still busy today? Why come pick me up in person gone?"
"Because your dad needs to prepare lunch"
Sophie touched Alice's head with a smile, and took her suitcase: "My daughter has gone to research and develop fighter jets for the Ministry of National Defense. Why can't she go home by taxi?"
Alice rolled her eyes: "Actually, I didn't fly an F-16 to Wenton Street. It was already for the sake of disturbing the people. Tell me, Mom, what was the surprise of the phone call last night?"
As early as last night when talking on the phone in the hotel, Sophie mysteriously told Alice that there was a surprise waiting for her after returning home, which made Alice still guess whether it was her parents who wanted to give her another gift. Add a younger sibling.
"Let's talk when we go home, we'll talk when we go home."
While talking, Sophie had already put the suitcase in the trunk and opened the driver's door, and Alice jumped into the co-pilot.
But just as she was wearing the seat belt, Alice frowned again, staring at the white marks on the seat belt: "Hey, Mom, where did this dirty thing come from?"
"What? Oh, that."
Sophie chuckled: "When I went camping the day before yesterday, Oscar was sitting in the co-pilot. While he was drinking a carton of milk, James happened to let the car run over a big rock. The result...can you imagine?"
"Wow, dad did a great job."
Morning flight, so when Alice finally arrived at her cozy home in sunny California, it was time for lunch. When the car was just parked on the street outside the house, Alice saw her father cooking from a distance through the window.
"Hey Alice! Welcome home!"
Hearing the sound of the engine earlier, a flowing red-haired figure immediately appeared in sight. Hannah was thrown out of the house like the wind, and gave Alice a big bear hug in one jump.
"Oh~ Hannah~ you're getting fat!"
"Oh ~ Ellie ~ your breasts are bigger!"
Then, seeing a ghostly boy appearing at the door, Alice narrowed her eyes: "Hey, Oscar, I heard you sprayed milk all over yourself?"
"Mom!? Didn't you agree not to tell Alice!?"
"She found the marks on the seat belt by herself, and I can't help it."
Bypassing the yelling Oscar, he walked into the house holding his sister's hand, and could smell the aroma of Chinese food from the kitchen far away.
Alice sniffled: "Hmm~ Sweet and sour carp, farmhouse fried pork, Beijing sauce shredded pork, tomato and egg soup and fried river bamboo shoots, so rich today?"
Oscar had already entered the room, looking at his sister strangely: "Dog nose?"
Alice looked back, raised her head and smiled humbly: "Are you envious?"
"cut!"
The dining table was already filled with all the food. Seeing his daughter entering the room, James promptly brought the last plate of fried river bamboo shoots to the table. The apron was still untied, and he said cheerfully, "Come and taste Dad's handicraft, Weiwei, sit down quickly."
Alice looked at the plate of farmhouse fried pork with satisfaction: "The pork belly is used, and the spicy smell can be smelled half a street away. It's really great. I said, Dad, Mom, what day is it today? Why are you so excited?"
It stands to reason that it is not normal, Alice thought about it carefully and came to this conclusion. Although she has just settled some matters at Lockheed, the research and development of YF-22 must have her own benefits, but it will not make her family so happy, right?
"Actually, Alice, we have two good news for you."
Everyone sat down together, and Sophie said happily: "The first thing is, "Fortune" magazine is planning to write an article for you. We believe you will agree, so we told the reporter that we will come to you tomorrow."
Alice nodded: "It's just an ordinary interview. It's easy, and it's okay. But this is just an interview with Fortune. As for being so happy?"
Sophie thought for a while: "Let's put it this way, dear, do you have a specific understanding of your current worth?"
These words really stumped Alice. Eaton's schooling, the establishment of the laboratory, the filming of the film, and the preparations for investment in Japan had already taken up most of Alice's time. Of course, as for the follow-up of Electronic Arts' game development and the follow-up of the training base construction of Blackwater International Security Company, these are not trivial matters, enough to keep anyone busy for a long time.
Therefore, since Microsoft and Nasdaq successfully sued IBM, Alice has never cared much about the stock market. Even after the release of Windows 2.0 and the start of development of Windows 3.0, Apple sued Microsoft for the cooperation and copyright issues between the two companies, she did not hesitate to hand over full authority to Gates.
"Let me think about it. A few days ago, the Wall Street Journal said that Gates' net worth has risen to... $300 million, right? He's on the Forbes Rich List."
Alice wrinkled her nose: "Then I'm like more than 200 million yuan, and this is the only listed company, what else can I do?"
This sentence undoubtedly produced a wonderful reflection among the family members.
Hannah and Oscar were okay, they just gave their sister a thumbs up, but James and Sophie couldn't stop laughing bitterly.
"Please, honey, don't you see how old you are now!?"
Sophie said dumbfoundedly: "At the age of fifteen, he became a rich man worth 200 million US dollars by his own hard work. Isn't that enough to surprise people all over the world? And that guy Gates only has one Microsoft. You How many companies do you have under your command? Have you ever considered what outsiders think?"
Seeing her mother's excited look, Alice swallowed three pieces of greasy pork belly in one gulp, rolled her eyes: "I'm really sorry, we haven't entered the era of mobile Internet and social media flooding, no matter what other people think, My circle is only that big, and my feelings are limited~!"
If there is a business partner by the side at this time, I have to sigh again, because Alice suddenly proposed two new concepts. But these two concepts, the whole family has heard her mention it several times, so they are not very surprised.
"Then when you were studying at Eton, didn't any of your classmates tell you these things?"
This is true, Alice swallowed seven or eight pieces of greasy pork belly in two mouthfuls, mixed with three big mouthfuls of rice, and said: "Many people have asked me, and many boys have asked me The appearance of the courtship was blocked by Sissy and Maiya. Well, that’s about it, but when I went to Lockheed a few days ago, those project members all looked like idols, oops Ya~"
After finishing speaking, Alice burped after eating half a bowl of tomato and egg soup: "Dad's cooking is delicious!"
After the meal, of course everyone went back to their respective houses to have fun. Alice called all the members of the SOS group early on and agreed to meet at Sissy's mansion at 7:00 pm. Then, for the entire afternoon, she had a lot of work to do at such a young age and had a successful career.
After all, Sophie has overstepped her role and asked a reporter from "Fortune" magazine to come to her home to interview her tomorrow.
Damn stinky mother, she found trouble for her daughter as soon as she came home!
Of course, Alice knew exactly what Fortune would ask.
A few phone calls were made to the corresponding company, and the fax was quickly available.
To say that Gates is the billionaire with the fastest wealth appreciation in the world is not bragging.
Microsoft, which raked in US$60 million on the first day of listing, has brought Gates a net worth of US$300 million after a whole year has passed, and Alice, as the second largest shareholder, also owns more than US$200 million assets, there is no doubt about that.
Of course, the net worth belongs to the net worth, unless you sell all the stocks, otherwise you don't have that much cash. But there is no doubt that she has also entered the Forbes list with Gates, and she is a fifteen-year-old girl.
Cisco's boom has also been fruitful. Whenever a competitor launches a new product, it immediately launches a next-generation model with better performance. This kind of technology-oriented hard work allows Cisco to stabilize all its peers without any suspense.
Whether it is a router or a switch, Lucent Technology, which ranks second, can only keep up with Cisco, and it is as big as the gap between Alibaba and JD.com, and this gap is still suppressed by blunt technology. And every time Lucent thought it was finally catching up, it was widening the gap again. To be honest, this is really speechless.
In fact, thinking about it carefully, Alice also agreed with Posak's suggestion not long ago: it is time to hire a professional manager for Cisco.
Currently, this role is being filled by Sandy Bosack, who is responsible for customer service supervisors. With so many customers, so many after-sales problems, so many software bug fixes and re-upgrades, it is not an easy job.
Undoubtedly, the editors of "Fortune" will definitely focus on hearing about Cisco's affairs. After all, it has been a leader in the industry since its establishment, but it has not yet come to the market.
"Well, looking for this rhythm, the next issue of "Fortune" will definitely be sold out."
Thinking that she would definitely appear on the cover again and look down at her full C-Cup size, Alice grinned.
