The Goddess Shines on America

Seeing Alice turned to the computer, Maiya already understood what was going on: "Go ahead, I'll make you tea."

Alice nodded and looked at the swarm of emails.

Undoubtedly, there are many companies that need to report to her.

Just like the Electronic Arts game company that was acquired by her with a lot of money more than half a year ago, after such a long time, the first game "Sim City" since the investment has not only been completed, but also officially sold. The company submitted its financial report for the month. According to the relevant instructions, after several months of publicity, the sales volume of "Sim City" has exceeded 500,000 copies so far, directly creating a record for Electronic Arts. The turnover of tens of millions of yuan.

It's gratifying, but for the current Electronic Arts company, Alice has always responded with the mentality of taking a long time to catch big fish. After all, judging from the time of her previous life, excluding "StarCraft" and "Age of Empires", as well as "The Sims" and "Resident Evil" and other emotional factors, even the worst game... must be at least 3D, right?

So it's no wonder that Alice has only thought of investing in a game company for more than ten years, because she doesn't play games at all on weekdays. After all, computer games are not essential to her, and I am used to playing those 3A masterpieces of the 21st century, and it is too difficult to look back and hold the "garbage" of the 1980s as a baby .

So, that's all about Electronic Arts, and Alice moved on to the next email.

This is an important point.

The latest on Blackwater International.

Regarding this company, the main premise that must be understood is that for a security company developing in the direction of mercenaries, there are many more important conditions than hardware facilities, which need to be overcome and possessed one by one.

The CEO is Maiya's father. For more than a year, Mr. Akaman has almost stayed in North Carolina, personally supervising the construction of the security personnel training center. Of course, what he needs to do is not just such a simple job. The first task is to establish a good relationship with the local government, and then extend to Washington.

In this e-mail sent by him personally, there are many messages that can be called confidential.

The first is a long list of all government officials that Akaman has come into contact with during this time. Headed by the governor and congressmen, the names of all the executives in the administrative planning of the entire state are included. In addition, there is a basic introduction of an air force base stationed here, including the name of the resident commander-in-chief and the basic information of several major executives.

Of course, there are not many things here that should not be known to outsiders, such as whether there are bribes to certain officials, or the military deployment of that air force base. This is just a list, but after all, it is the precious information that Akaman finally sorted out and sent to Alice after working hard in the local area for a year.

In fact, in theory, it is not very difficult to collect these materials. I think that when Alice bought the land, she was dragged by Governor McDowell to attend a local party. This is the case in the southern part of the United States, where rural power far outweighs urban areas, and according to traditions carried over from the Civil War era, there are always many regular gatherings among neighbors. What Akaman really needs to work on is to fit into that circle.

A simple thing in theory, but quite annoying in practice.

Of course, the email also reported in detail the construction process of the training base, which can be summed up in one sentence as steady development.

In fact, the construction difficulty in many areas is almost zero. To put it bluntly, as long as a forklift is used to level an open space, it will soon be used as a military training playground? And the complex terrain in the depths of the swamp is a natural large training ground, and the construction required is just some basic protection measures for key areas.

Therefore, the real focus is to establish a good relationship. After the soft conditions are met, other matters can be resolved within a month at most.

In terms of contacts, Akaman is working hard. He has known all government officials in the entire North Carolina state. According to his report, the next step is to use the help of congressmen to gradually gain contacts.

Of course, if the whole business is really to be carried out bit by bit by him, it will be a project of monkey years and horses and months from the very beginning. But fortunately not, fortunately, the chairman of Blackwater International is Alice after all. Although before she was eighteen years old, the title of chairman was only in honor, but when Akaman used this name on social occasions, how could it be unimpeded?

Just look at Cisco's business layout. North Carolina was completely "fallen" long after it received its first major order from the White House. When government officials in the state learned from their own channels that their supplier recommendation came from Vice President Bush... Of course, everything was not a problem.

Therefore, after reading the information on Blackwater International, which has not had much news yet, Alice put aside other report emails, and clicked on a sender outside the system.

Just as she was reading Heishui's email, this hateful old man who was obviously very interested in RU Lolita sent her such a love letter ♂.

"What the hell..."

Muttering this, Alice began to read.

To Alice:

First of all, I heard that you went to Japan to invest in real estate two months ago, which made me slightly surprised but also very relieved. It’s rare that you haven’t devoted yourself to being a scientific research entrepreneur, you can develop an interest in the investment industry, and you can even set your sights on the hot field of Japanese real estate. Good luck to you, like many of us.

So, I happen to have a problem here and might need your help. My ineffective son, George Walker Bush, founded an oil company the year before last called Bush Energy, which is currently at a serious loss. At present, he has started the habit of studying the Bible and Christian publications, and participated in church reading clubs and discussion groups, and has basically calmed down. But until now, I can still remember the pain of his drinking, and the business has not yet recovered from the losses.

This is an unkind request, considering you are sure to make a lot of money from investing in Japan, Alice, I would like you to take a certain size stake in my son's Bush Energy. Of course, I can't impose any minimum investment amount, but if you put in even a little, a little, five million dollars, my whole family will definitely pay you back.

I heard that you are studying at Eton Middle School in the UK at this time. I really envy Barbara. When I learned that it can admit girls from the year before last, my wife has talked to me every day. It is a pity that she herself was not born decades later. . So when the summer vacation is approaching, we will also be very happy to see that you can come to our home and tell Barbara about the daily life and study conditions at Eton.

you are faithful.

George H. Bush.

"Wow wow wow baby~"

When Maiya walked into the dormitory again, she heard Alice humming such a tune.

"What makes you so happy?"

Alice turned to look at Maiya, took the teacup from her hand, took a sip of the hot and fragrant Longjing, then leaned back, and let out a long breath in a very satisfied tone.

"Well, it's an investment invitation."

There was nothing to stop her, she directly presented the contents of the email to Maiya, who of course would not be polite, and immediately moved her head forward.

She read quickly and efficiently, and after a while, she showed joy: "This is a good thing. Although the price of oil in the international market is currently low, it will definitely rise again when the time comes. Moreover, this is what the Vice President owes you Favors are simply pies in the sky!"

"Also, we do have a lot of things that need his help recently."

Alice said very seriously: "However, we need him more than he needs us. Even if we can always use campaign funds to pay back, but tie ourselves and their family to a chariot , but a little too risky."

This time, Maiya couldn't answer anything, and she really needed to think about it herself.

"It makes sense, Alice, you need to pay more attention."

After pondering for a moment, she said: "From the time you founded Cisco, you have only really developed your career for three years, but you have been involved with so many companies and senior government officials. The foundation is not stable, which is your biggest problem now." , especially the trip to Japan caused you to owe so much debt, before we expand our business on a larger scale, why don't we first get good at school honestly?"

Maiya's conclusion did not surprise Alice, after all, she didn't know what the future would hold.

Just like the round of investment in Japan, even if she knew it would make money, it was impossible for Maiya to see nearly three times the income in two years, and she could only see that Alice had already owed 1.1 billion U.S. dollars. Obviously, as long as you just sit back and get Microsoft's dividends and wait for Cisco to go public, you can directly become a billionaire in three to five years, but you keep investing everywhere.

"Well, what you say makes sense, but my main consideration is political factors."

Therefore, Alice cooperated with Maiya's point of view from another angle: "The Bush family is a rising star in the political arena, but the Kennedy family is an evergreen tree, and Ke... In short, as businessmen, we must not fight with a certain A family is too closely connected. Capitalists are eternal, but politicians come and go. A large investment of five million must be carefully considered."

After all, only a big capitalist would have a thought. Maiya opened her mouth silently, but found helplessly that the only sound she could make was a wry smile.
