America's Road to Wealth

Chapter 140 Big KK and Lima

No. [-] Thirteen Road, Huangdian, New York.

in the manor house,
In the beautiful and bright outdoor glass dome swimming pool.

Even if the outside is close to four degrees at this time.

There is also a level five cold wind blowing, enough to make anyone in thin clothes shiver.

in the glass pool,
Regardless of the cost and the cost of the knife.

The interior of the huge glass dome, which is 40 meters wide, 55 meters long, and about eight meters high, is as warm as spring at this time.

When Michael Levine, wearing a coat, got off the helicopter, he felt that it was much colder than Manhattan.

Not long after entering the glass swimming pool, Michael was so hot that he wanted to take off his coat.

Michael looked in four directions of the glass swimming pool.

Under the four glass walls, there are more than twenty outdoor heaters and air conditioners.

These energy-consuming guys provide enough warmth for the glass dome.

The boss really enjoys it.

Use so many high-power air coolers, combined with hot air conditioners.

This glass swimming pool, even if it is snowing outside.

It probably won't get cold in there.

It's just that the electricity bill can be staggering.

Thinking of this, Michael Levine withdrew his slightly relaxed spirit and listened carefully to the boss's narration.

"...The New York City government has agreed. Although it is a bit expensive, and only gave us one day of preparation time, five hours of use time, and three hours of disassembly time."

"But it's already very good. To be honest, I didn't expect them to agree. This can be regarded as a pleasant surprise."

Same as last time.

Michael Levine sat stiffly on a recliner.

Abel was wearing a bathrobe and lounging on the recliner.

next to the recliner,

It was Joanna, the head of Abel's butler, surrounded by four beautiful maids who were always on call.

Under the pool.

Still the same as last time, there are two beautiful "mermaids" swimming in bikinis.

Michael Levine controlled his gaze to avoid displeasing his boss.

Michael Levine also knew what the boss said.

What I'm talking about is that this time Isha Company can actually be in the hands of the New York City Government.

Apply for the qualification to hold an event in Times Square, Manhattan on December 12th.

In fact, not only the boss felt a little unbelievable.

Michael Levine himself feels a bit like a dream until now.

half a month ago.

When Michael Levine learned that the New York City government actually agreed to the application of Isa Company.

Levin's first reaction was to wonder if it was April, and if he heard the news on April [-]st.

But subsequent facts proved that Isa company did succeed.

It has been approved by the New York City government for a temporary use right in Times Square, Manhattan.

It is very expensive.

for this qualification.

In one month, Isha donated a total of three times to the New York City government.

This donation will be used for public infrastructure construction and public personnel benefits.

Three donations, each with more money than the first, add up to more than 2000 million US dollars.

These are positive donations to the New York City government.

On the side, there are other donations too.

Isha has also made multiple donations to several private charitable funds.

Those who are interested will find these private charitable funds after careful investigation.

The holders behind them each have high-level connections in the New York City government.

For example, one of them received a donation of 300 million US dollars, a charity foundation that cares for dolphins in the waters of New York.

Its permanent honorary chairman is the current First Lady of New York, Ms. Julia.

donations in both areas.

Add it all up, and the total amount is almost $5000 million.

In addition to these donations, Isha also pays the buildings around Times Square.

The cost was almost $2000 million-plus.

Added up, the cost has exceeded $7000 million.

There are also K Street companies that specialize in New York, which have also been hired by Isa.

The cost is also staggering.

After all, Isha has paid a bill of more than 8000 million US dollars for this.

That's a staggering amount of money.

But even so, Michael Levine didn't think he could succeed at first.

There is a high probability that the money will go to waste.

After all, before this.

I have never heard of a private company that can use Times Square alone for a period of time.

After all, that is the famous crossroads of the world!
But in the end, the application was approved.

The efforts with little hope in the early stage, and the expenditure of large sums of dollars.

It paid off.

But Michael Levine knew that the reason why he could apply was to be successful.

In addition to the credit of a lot of dollar bills, Isha's own efforts have actually had little effect.

It can be approved by the New York City government.

The biggest reason still fell on the young and handsome boss in front of him.

Hearing the boss's emotion at this moment, Michael Levine said quickly:
"It's all because of you. With your efforts, Yisha has achieved the impossible task of other companies!"

"Ha~ I like to hear you say that." Abel smiled and said, "Even if it is true. But Michael, your tone is always so pleasant."

The two Michaels next to Abel are already senior pimps.

Or should I say,

Entertainment intermediaries who are doing well in the United States are also called entertainment brokers.

One of these people counts as one, and they must all have worked as pimps!

An entertainment agent who can't do this job well must have poor resources in the industry.

Because many times, if you make the high-level figures in the circle happy, there is a high probability that you can get the corresponding resources.

The cost is low, and the payoff can be large.

Low investment and high profit, why not do it?
Under this premise,

An entertainment agent can't even be a pimp if he wants to.

And if you want to be a good pimp, you must have a sweet mouth in front of people with resources, that's for sure.

As with Michael Ovitz, so with Michael Levine.

Abel felt that among the people around him.

In terms of flattery and sweet mouth, only Merio can hold these two people firmly.

"Since now, we have obtained the right to host."

Abel looked at Michael Levine, and he said seriously:
"Then we can't screw up. If we screw up, it will not only make the future of Isa company bleak."

"It would also embarrass me. It might even make New York City blame me."

"You know what I mean? Michael, on the night of December 12th, there was no way to fail."

Seeing the boss's serious expression, Michael Levin's heart tightened suddenly.

Michael Levine nodded immediately, and said seriously:
"BOSS. Please rest assured. I have hired the best designers, engineers, and actuaries to calculate the entire process and construction and dismantling of the facility."

"I guarantee that there will be no problems with the facilities of this event!"

That's Times Square, it's so striking.

The Yisha company will hold its own Yisha show there, and it will be Christmas Eve on December 24th.

It can be said that just these two points will attract the attention of most Americans that night.

With the heat at that time, there is even hope to look forward to the Super Bowl.

After all, the Super Bowl happens often, every year.

For the first time in history, there are lingerie models on Christmas Eve in Times Square!
If when it's time to hold it, there are some changes, even accidents, on the field.

Not only Abel will take great responsibility, maybe even the New York City government will become a laughing stock.

That is, the current mayor of the Elephant Party will not participate in the election next year.

He is almost retiring, and due to physical reasons, he will not be able to go into politics again in the future.

Before stepping down,
He wants to make a lot of money, and he is not afraid of taking the blame.

In addition, I also want to take risks, betting that Abel can succeed.

If successful, it would add another event to New York.

Tourism and attention to New York can also be of some help.

There are considerations in this regard.

The New York City government will agree to this application and approve the outrageous application for Yishaxiu to be in Times Square.

In this, Abel's personal reasons also accounted for a part.

When Isha applied, it was the time when Smith's storm was at its most intense.

New York is more or less like an Internet celebrity city. At that time, Abel was the largest "Internet celebrity" in the United States.

New York also wants to rub his hot spot.

Plus Abel got in touch with several companies on K Street in Washington, DC.

In addition to letting them mess with Sony, they also asked them to find some people to lobby for this matter.

After a multi-pronged approach, it finally succeeded.

It's just that this kind of success has not even reached half of the real success.

To be really successful, you have to wait until the end of the Isa show and get very good feedback.

That's the real success.

In this process, of course, there can be no mistakes.

If things go wrong, the collapse of Yisha's company is just a trivial matter.

Let the New York City government complain or even blame, or cause bad influence.

That's the big bad.

In it, if something goes wrong, Abel is of course the first person responsible.

But Abel can get out easily, at most, he has a bad reputation and bears a little infamy.

Lose some money.

As for Michael Levin, the second responsible person, it is estimated that he will be doomed.

For this grand event, Michael Levine can be said to bet his career and reputation.

Cheng became the boss of the most famous modeling agency and underwear company in the United States and even the world, and became a bigwig in the industry.

If it fails, it is estimated that there is no way to even go back to CAA to work.

For the sake of this matter, Michael Levine is naturally extremely serious.

Fortunately, Abel's support for him was very strong.

Whether it's contacts in New York or financial support.

No effort was spared.

This made Michael Levine a lot easier in this matter.

Reciprocate what Michael Levine asks of his boss.

Naturally, I did my best.

like tonight.

In fact, before this, he was still negotiating with personnel from two engineering companies.

Busy ass can't sit down like that.

But when the boss called, he immediately brought the two young models who were participating in the catwalk in New Jersey to the boss.

It was just because the boss said that I was afraid of swimming at night and needed two people to accompany me.

Next,
Michael Levine chatted with Abel about Isha Show again.

Among them are the considerations of hardware facilities.

"New York is so cold now. By Christmas Eve, it may have snowed for an unknown amount of time."

"Although the models are very frost-resistant, they may also be extremely cold."

"At that time, it will be hard to freeze them. If there is any disease in the freeze, the news after that will not be very good."

"Michael, do you have any plans or preparations for this?"

Hearing this question from the boss, Michael Levin thought to himself——

[You can walk the show in Times Square on Christmas Eve under the attention of more than tens of millions of American audiences. 】

[Those models, how could they be afraid of the mere cold. 】

[Not to mention the weather around minus five or six degrees, even if it is minus twenty or thirty degrees, they will be willing. 】

Of course, they are mentally willing to return to willing.

But physically, after all, he is still a mortal body, and he is also afraid of the cold.

When the time comes to keep warm for catwalks, we still have to think about it.

"There are currently two options."

Michael Levine said:

"It's all a plan given by the design company and the engineering company."

"The first plan is to cover the outside of the show with a glass cover. Separate the air and turn on the air conditioner and heater inside. This way the models will not be frozen."

"If you just use this plan, the scene may not look so good."

Abel nodded. The bad thing about this plan is that the glass will reflect light to some extent.

Especially at night.

At that time, it may affect the shooting and affect the effect of the scene.

"What about the second plan?" Abel asked again.

"The second solution is to use a large number of hot air conditioners and cooling fans on site to try to increase the temperature of the show and its surroundings."

"The disadvantage is that no matter how you improve it, because the hot air escapes, it will eventually be cold."

"It's just that it should be much better than nothing, and the cold models may be able to bear it."

"Okay." Abel nodded, he didn't really care about that.

What's wrong with being a bit colder when you can run a show in front of tens of millions of people around the world?
Will any model say no?
It's a big deal to take a rest for a period of time to cure the disease if it is frozen.

If they don't play, it is estimated that the models will be the first to refuse.

After chatting for a few more words, Abel checked that the time was almost up.

He smiled at Michael Levine.

"Michael, I'm going to swim. Do you want to join me?"

How dare Michael Levine be together.

The quick-responsive former CAA senior partner and broker immediately got up and said:

"Ah~ No. Boss, to be honest, I can't swim. And I still have a job, and I have to go back to Manhattan."

"Are you still working so late?"

"Yes. And it's urgent. I must leave immediately."

"Alright then." Abel said hypocritically, "Since you are very busy, you should go first."

"Okay. I'm leaving, goodbye, BOSS."

"Goodbye, Michael."

Michael Levine left the glass pool without looking back.

It was as if he had forgotten about the two young models he had brought over.

The two "mermaids" in the swimming pool have actually been paying attention to Michael Levine and Abel.

Seeing Michael Levine leave, the two began to get nervous.

They know that the show meat is coming.

Can I attend the Isha show in Times Square.

Is there any chance to become a "Smith Girl" like the two seniors in the company.

It depends on the performance of the two of them next.

The Czech supermodel Karolina Kurkova, who is only 16 years old this year and has not yet grown up.

Soaking in the warm pool water, she couldn't help whispering to Adriana Lima, who was a few years older than herself:

"Lima, are you nervous?"

Carolina Kurkova was sixteen, and Adriana Lima wasn't much older.

Lima, who was born in 1981, was only nineteen years old.

However, compared to Carolina Kurkova, the 19-year-old Lima has already made a certain reputation in the New York modeling circle.

In the middle of this year, she even became the cover model of an issue of Elle magazine.

"What's there to be nervous about?" Adriana Lima disapproved:

"To enter this circle, what must be paid, don't tell me you don't have this awareness yet?"

Karolina Kurkova certainly has the awareness in Lima's mouth.

Even though she is only 16 years old, she has been in the modeling circle for two years.

The model circle in Europe and America is a darker circle than the entertainment circle.

The explicit and unspoken rules of many entertainment circles are not rules at all here.

They are everyday.

"Okay," Karolina Kurkova said. "I'm just a little nervous. After all, it's my first time."

Adriana Lima glanced at the little sister who was not yet fully developed.

She wanted to speak a few more words.

But at this moment, she noticed that Abel on the shore had already taken off his bathrobe.

That marble sculpture, more beautiful than most of the top male models in the modeling industry, jumped into the water with a crash.

Swimmed towards them.

Adriana Lima withdrew her disdainful expression towards Carolina Kurkova.

With a big smile on her face, she swam towards Abel who was swimming over.

The 16-year-old Carolina Kurkova was stunned, then gritted her teeth, thumped, and kept up with Adriana Lima.

this evening.

The glass swimming pool at [-] Kings Point Thirteenth Road, New York.

Because of human movement, the temperature of the swimming pool water has increased by 0.0001 degrees.

The next morning.

When Karolina Kurkova opened her eyes in a daze, she looked at the strange ceiling above her head.

Her first reaction was that she was so tired, and her body ached.

The second reaction was oh, I'm in a villa on Long Island right now.

Adriana Lima and I closed a "deal" last night.

The third reaction is that man?
The light of the Czech Republic in the future, she quickly turned her head and looked around, trying to find the figure of the man she felt she would never forget in this life.

But she only saw Adriana Lima sleeping and even snoring in the bed and in the room.

And the whole messy room that looked like it had been in a war.

The hypoglycemia when he just woke up, coupled with his young age, and the future top supermodel KK, he was in a daze for a few minutes.

After a while, she couldn't help but pushed Adriana Lima next to her.

"Lima, Lima. Adriana!"

she called softly.

But Adriana Lima didn't respond, she was still sleeping.

Lima is older and better developed.

The appearance has also completely grown.

There is also more firepower tonight.

It's even more tiring.

Karolina Kurkova couldn't wake Lima up.

This made KK heartbroken, and secretly pinched him.

Adriana Lima groaned, and then opened those beautiful wolf eyes.

"What are you doing?" Adriana Lima frowned, looking at K.K who was holding the quilt.

Karolina Kurkova innocently said:

"Nothing. Just Adriana, it's three o'clock in the afternoon."

"I remember we had four o'clock today and a show in Brooklyn."

"Do you think you can still walk the show now?"

Adriana Lima wakes up much faster than Carolina Kurkova.

"Don't talk about catwalks. I don't think I can even walk now! I can't go to today's show!"

"But that would violate the contract and company regulations," Karolina Kurkova said worriedly.

This is why Carolina Kurkova wanted to wake up Adriana Lima immediately after waking up.

There is one thing to say, the contract of Yisha company is still very strict.

"Huh~"

Adriana Lima, 19, sneered.

"I don't think Michael Levine is going to come after us for that."

"You know it was him last night who sent us to this bed!"
