I’m in Hollywood

After the raging fire last week, after entering the weekend, the mainstream media in North America began to change significantly in the Nasdaq market. They have questioned that the bubble of the new technology industry has completely reached the level of out of control.

Of the media's focus on a series of discussions, the first and foremost is Eric's latest statistics of $625 billion in personal assets.

What is the concept of $625 billion?

In the statistics of the total national wealth in 1998, Denmark, ranked 27th, as one of the developed countries in Europe, has a total national wealth of just over 600 billion US dollars.

This means that Eric's own assets are equivalent to the total wealth of the top 30 countries in the world.

Moreover, if the statistical scope is extended to the entire firefly system, according to the peak market value after the Nasdaq broke through 5000 points on Friday, the total assets of the firefly system holding companies have reached 1.85 billion US dollars, which can just be the 1998 national wealth. In the list of the total value, Canada, which ranks eighth in the national wealth ranking of $179.95 billion, is crowded down.

It is worth mentioning that above Canada, it is the United States, Japan, Britain and France, these superpowers that control the world economy.

Thus, although most of the ordinary media that like to attract the attention of the audience are using various exaggerated titles to speculate on the latest record of Eric's personal wealth.

However, some professional financial publications, such as Wall Street's well-known "Financial Weekly", after combing the entire firefly system, very arduous evaluation of Eric's personal assets 'such as the same tank can not withstand any scrutiny of soap bubbles' .

The New York Times also wrote that Eric’s personal asset bubble outside of Hollywood is more than 70%.

While paying close attention to the Nasdaq market trends, Eric finally completed the post of Gravity. The day before the Nasdaq hit the top, Eric flew to Boston to attend the Yahoo high-level meeting, once again pre-arranged the upcoming storm.

In fact, since the end of last year, Yahoo's expansion has been conservative under Eric's suppression.

In the past six months, due to the substantial increase in its revenue figures, the IPO received nearly $5.7 billion in funding, and there were $5.1 billion remaining. Yahoo’s conservative business strategy for the past six months has been criticized by Wall Street’s radical investors more than once as the first priority in the entire Internet industry.

But now, although the Internet bubble is about to burst, the development of the entire Internet industry will not stagnate. Even in the case of reduced competition, the next few years will be the best time to really fit the Internet industry.

More than $5 billion in cash reserves, Yahoo is still struggling to expand in the winter of Internet capital.

On July 17, the end of Yahoo's high-level meeting, Eric did not return to Los Angeles, but flew to New York, intending to witness the spectacular moment of the Nasdaq crash next week.

Midtown, Cindy and Linda production company.

Although it was a weekend, an interview was arranged today.

When I came to New York last time, Cindy said that in order to make the little guy in his belly become as smart as Hawaii, he planned to find a few assistants to read to her every day. Carefully looked for more than a month, just as Eric came, he pulled him to the final interview.

Said to be an assistant, but actually more like a babysitter. However, Cindy chose all the top graduates from all the world's top universities, and in order to let the little guy grow up in a multilingual environment, the candidate basically needs to master more than three languages. .

At this point, Eric looked at the last dozen of his brilliant resumes in the super-skilled level, and couldn’t help but be on the side of Cindy: "So a smart group of people, enough to be my assistant. Are you sure you can hold it after you find it?"

Eric’s voice just fell, and Linda, who was running around to join in the fun, said, “Yes, and they are all so beautiful, be careful that they will step on you in the future.”

When Eric heard Linda’s words and flipped a few resumes, he found that although it was only a simple photo ID, the high-profile students selected by Cindy were obviously above the standard, and several of them were quite Meets Eric aesthetics.

Noting Eric's slightly surprised expression, Cindy gave him a glance and said: "If you really find a few ugly women to put around, if something goes wrong, then I am not even more faceless. Anyway, Can't help it, it's better to find a few beautiful ones."

Eric was even more surprised and smiled: "When did you become so high?"

"Virginia yells at me," Cindy gave an answer that made Eric unexpected. He continued: "Don't you find that the maids at East Hampton's Manor and Kevin's tutors are Pretty?"

Eric recalled, and had to admit: "It seems that it is. It seems that I have to praise Weiji."

Cindy rearranged the information in front of him and told the outside secretary to start the interview. He then said to Eric: "I found that Virginia is very smart in this respect. You men sometimes The mind is so weird, a group of beautiful women are placed around, often do not care too much, but will look at those ugly women. Just like the president, obviously can find a woman ten times better, but must be with a look even and even Some fat interns are messing around, and Schwarzenegger, I don’t even understand why he is interested in such a ugly maid, and he has created an illegitimate child."

Clinton’s zipper door scandal has been raging, but Schwarzenegger’s illegitimate scandal has not yet been exposed, but it’s no secret in the circle.

Linda has just targeted Cindy, but at this time it is very unsatisfied to turn the road: "It is said that this is a man's hunting psychology."

Eric reluctantly raised his right hand and said: "I swear to God, I definitely don't have that kind of mentality."

The outside secretary let the first interviewer come in. Cindy finally glanced at Eric, didn't say anything, and started a formal interview.

As high-school students in world-class colleges such as Harvard, Yale, and Cambridge, these girls who participated in the interview today are not lacking in employment opportunities, so they are basically attracted only because of Cindy's far above average salary.

However, when I saw Eric Williams sitting behind the desk, most of the girls were obviously bright, and some of the girls who were not proud of the original work were also playing a 12-point spirit. In the course of the interview, the performance is very serious, and there is a bolder initiative to discuss with Eric.

The interview for less than 20 people took place throughout the day.

In the evening, I returned to Cindy’s apartment on 75th Street and had dinner. Eric took the laptop and sat in the living room to check the email during the day. Cindy and Linda were still whispering next to each other.

After a few moments, Cindy took a resume and said: "Eric, this, Catherine Neumann, what do you think?"

Eric swept his resume and recalled the appearance of a blond standard German girl who saw it during the day. "It's very good. The German character is more rigorous and delicate. You should pick it first and pick a few more." Pick me up and pick it again."

Cindy still didn't speak. Linda misunderstood Eric's words and said, "You have to pick?"

Eric opened another email from Jeff Bezos and explained: "I mean people are going to re-examine the girls for background checks, whether they have criminal records, whether they have mental illness, whether they have drug addiction, Are there any hidden dangers in the interpersonal circle, and the two of you will not think that anyone is present next to my children? So, I will let people start from their elementary school era."

Cindy obviously didn't think so much, but he immediately agreed with Eric's words and put all the resumes in his hands together. "In this case, Eric, you still have to let people review it. After I finish, I will finish it. Pick it up again, it would be very troublesome if you have problems after picking it up."

"That's OK, I will let people do it tomorrow, you let them wait another month," said Eric, thinking about it and saying: "In addition, regarding the review, you take the initiative to disclose to them. Let's avoid any misunderstandings. As compensation, their annual salary will be doubled."

Linda screamed beside him: "Doubling up to $500,000, I want this job."

Most of the top 500 companies in the world that enjoy the annual salary of 10 million US dollars have the experience of top-level prestigious schools, which inevitably gives the illusion that a graduate of a famous school is very high. But this is not the case. This group of people who climb to the top of the workplace pyramid can only be regarded as the luckiest group. Thousands of prestigious graduates each year, the ultimate career path is only an annual salary of 100,000 or 200,000. The affluent middle class of the dollar.

Moreover, women have a natural disadvantage in the workplace than men. The annual salary of 500,000 US dollars is absolutely hopeless for most women in the workplace.

Eric looked at the surprised expression in Cindy’s eyes and said: “People always say that money is not omnipotent, but I think money is really omnipotent. Giving them a higher salary is enough to guarantee them to the greatest extent. Loyalty. Because once they want to do something inappropriate, they can’t help but imagine the consequences of losing the job. Then, losing a $500,000 annual salary and losing a $250,000 annual salary, The feeling is absolutely different."

Cindy sat next to Eric, nodded at the accreditation point, and suddenly bent his lips and looked at the man next to him: "Do you control us like this?"

"I didn't control you," Eric said with a smile. He reached out and touched Cindy's delicate face and said, "I am possessing you."

Linda looked at Eric's 'interaction' with Cindy, and couldn't help but start jealous. Since Cindy was pregnant, her stomach didn't have any movements. After this time, Linda's emotions were obviously wrong. Can't help but say: "You two started again."

Eric fingertips crossed the delicate neck of Cindy, took back his hand and looked at Linda on the other side. "So, Cindy said that you bought stock again. How much did you buy?"

"I won't tell you," Linda suddenly succumbed to the sofa with a guilty conscience. After the original Yahoo stock was cashed out, Eric repeatedly told two women not to greedy the tech stock market. Cindy Very obedient, Linda apparently failed to hold back the temptation brought by technology stocks. At this point, in the face of Eric's gaze, the girl endured for a moment, or actively confessed: "I have invested another 50 million dollars, are the stock of the firefly system, Yahoo, Cisco, Amazon, and Qualcomm, now It has risen to $86 million. I, I have doubled this amount of money, and immediately throw it away and promise not to buy it anymore."

"Well, then you wait," Eric nodded helplessly. The stupid woman did not put all the capital into it.

Cindy did see that Eric’s expression was different. She was not too concerned about the Nasdaq stock market during this time. However, all the people around me are inseparable from technology stocks. Cindy even wants to avoid it. It is also impossible.

Thinking of the news that the Nasdaq broke 5,000 points on Friday, Cindy said: "Eric, that, is there a problem?"

Eric operated the laptop in his hand and opened Yahoo's financial news home page to show him to Cindy. Linda saw that Eric didn't clean up what he meant and got together.

Looking at the news on the laptop screen that Eric deliberately opened, I couldn’t help but say: "This, in the recent period, they haven’t said that all the time, and they haven’t seen the Nasdaq crash, my The stockbroker said that the Nasdaq is likely to reach a high of 6,000 points, and it is still early."

Eric did not speak, Cindy taught: "In order to earn your commission, of course, stockbrokers can say anything, 6000 points. Do you think it is possible?"

“A lot of people think that 5000 points are not possible. Is it still not achieved?”

Eric listened to the words of the two women, and he was too lazy to say anything. He closed the notebook and picked up Linda next to him. He said: "I think it is necessary to clean up your meal again."

"Ah, Eric, I don't dare any more, don't hit me."

Linda suddenly hanged, half screaming, and was quickly thrown into the bedroom by Eric into the bedroom.

Early the next morning, the sky was just lit, and Eric’s cell phone rang.

Opened the eye, but it was a text message sent by Chris, let him check his email address immediately.

Until there was something wrong with it, Eric got dressed and went to the study, turned on the computer, and soon found a column from Dow Jones’s Barron Weekly in his email address.

Although the title of the article has only two words, it is very glaring: "burning exhausted."

The content is aimed at the financial analysis of more than 200 new technology companies on the Nasdaq market. The final result points out that in the next six months, more than 200 new technology companies that have IPOs in the last two years will have more than 50 companies. Exhausted, this number will exceed half in a much longer year.

Moreover, as the Fed enters the interest rate hike cycle, these companies will have difficulty obtaining the next round of financing, plus they have not formed any effective business model, and the final result can only go bankrupt.
