Feeling someone pushing her, Demi Moore opened her eyes and saw Simon standing neatly beside the bed, and immediately remembered what happened last night.
The curtains in the bedroom were not closed, but judging from the weather at this time, it was still very early.
Demi Moore sat up, letting the thin sheets slip off her body intentionally or unintentionally, smiled flatteringly at the man next to her, and said, "Good morning, Simon."
"Morning," Simon put a square box in his hand on the bedside table and said, "I have to go to work. I ordered breakfast for you. It's downstairs. The driver is outside and can take you away at any time."
Demi Moore couldn't help but look at the box with Gucci printed on it and said, "Is this for me?"
"It's for her," Simon gestured to the sleeping woman on the other side of the big bed, reached out and pinched Demi Moore's chin, and said, "Okay, that's it, bye."
Demi Moore watched Simon go to the bedroom, then suddenly lay down on the big bed, muttering dissatisfiedly: "It's Saturday, what kind of work do you have to do, damn man." After saying this, he turned and looked at the bed under the sheets next to him. With a female body that was far more exquisite and graceful than her own, she reached over and patted it: "Everyone is gone, so there's no need to pretend to be asleep."
"You lied to me," Rene Russo suddenly said with her head buried in the pillow, and added with some hatred: "You all lied to me."
Demi Moore reached for the box and opened it. Inside was a classic Gucci Floral series flower-themed silk scarf. It is a very versatile style. It is said that it was an idea personally provided by Princess Grace Kelly of Monaco, which has continued to Now.
She picked it up and admired it with some envy and some dissatisfaction. Of course she could afford a silk scarf, but she was dissatisfied with the guy's favoritism. Upon hearing Rene Russo's accusation, she immediately retorted: "Who lied to you? You obviously did it voluntarily."
Rene Russo was even more dissatisfied and cursed: "Asshole, I thought I was the only one, but I didn't expect it was three people together, my God, three people."
Demi Moore tried to fold up the silk scarf, ignoring Rene Russo's swear words, and said: "So what, he doesn't like you more. It was like this last night, and it's still like this now, and I don't even have any gifts from me." Share."
"Is that like it? I even felt that I had made some unforgivable mistake and he was punishing me." Rene Russo lay on the bed and propped up her body. She felt weak and had to give up. She noticed that Dai Mi Moore wanted to put the silk scarf around her neck, so she reached out and snatched it away: "This is mine."
He said and snatched the box together.
The silk scarf was snatched away. Demi Moore looked at it unwillingly, lifted the sheets and got out of bed, and walked to the bedroom without wearing anything.
Rene Russo looked at Demi Moore walking towards the bathroom, cursed Bichi in a low voice, turned over, stared at the ceiling in a daze for a while, finally got up, looked down and found that there were many places on her body that were not serious but The obvious red marks made me even more depressed.
Although.
That guy was really strong, and it didn't seem that bad. She could feel his roughness with a strange tenderness, even attachment.
but.
Just sleep with a young man who is more than ten years younger than you without any preparation. The sudden threesome still made her collapse a little.
He picked up the sheets and walked towards the bathroom, reaching out to open the door.
Demi Moore was comfortably soaking in the luxurious marble bathtub. When she saw her appear at the door, she waved and said, "Go to other rooms. I'm not used to sharing the bathroom with others."
"I'm even more unaccustomed to it," Rene Russo pressed the sheets on her chest and teased sarcastically. She leaned against the door and was silent for a moment before she asked, "Then what?"
Demi Moore plays dumb: "What then?"
Rene Russo stopped talking and just stared hard at Demi Moore in the bathtub.
Demi Moore felt a little guilty when she saw it. She was worried that the woman at the door would rush over and push her into the bathtub, so she had to explain: "How can there be anything else? There are so many assholes in Hollywood, so I don't know what else can happen."
Rene Russo still stared at her and said: "Don't think I don't know that you are fighting for the heroine of "The Last Love"."
"Yeah, but that bastard didn't make any promises to me. He probably just wanted to play with women, and he didn't think one was enough." Demi Moore spread her hands, suddenly gloating, and said: "You are even more unlucky, he Maybe I don’t even know your name.”
Rene Russo fell silent.
She was confused when she saw that little man come in last night but Demi Moore didn't leave. Then came a night of madness. Until he just went out, she didn't even say a few words to him throughout the night.
Her expression was uncertain for a moment, and Rene Russo turned around silently.
Demi Moore stood on the edge of the bathtub again and began to think about it. Although she just said that, she was not going to let it go. As a married woman, she took a lot of risks last night. Even if she really couldn't get the heroine in "The Last Love", she would still get some other opportunities from that little man.
After soaking comfortably in the luxurious bathtub for an hour, Demi Moore put on the dress she wore last night and left the bedroom on the second floor.
Rene Russo was already sitting in the restaurant.
Demi Moore picked a few pieces of food from the plate in the center of the dining table and sat down on the other side. She noticed the silk scarf around the neck of the woman opposite and joked: "You like his gift very much, put it on so quickly." ”
Rene Russo just glanced at her, then lowered her head and continued eating her breakfast.
She had just changed to another bathroom, took a shower and got dressed. She stood in front of the sink and wanted to fix her makeup. Only then did she realize why that nasty little man gave her a silk scarf.
It looks like there are strawberries planted on my neck.
Moreover, she reluctantly put on the silk scarf, and at that time she felt some inexplicable affection for him, and then she harshly condemned herself.
I really have no position!
Now, think about it, he might not even know his own name...
well.
Just think of it as a dream.
after all.
He shines so brightly in Hollywood.
She is older than him, well, fourteen years old, how dare she expect anything
At this time, listening to Demi Moore's words, she no longer felt any perfunctory mood when facing the woman who had brought her to her current situation.
…
After leaving the Palisade, Simon spent the morning with Amy at the construction site of Malibu's Daenerys Studios.
After several months of planning and preparation, the overall design of the cinema has been completed, the land in the mountainous area has also been leveled, and the road into the cinema has been widened. The project will start in mid-May. The construction period of the main building and post-decoration parts will be six months. It is expected to be officially settled in June next year.
At noon, I had lunch with Angela Ahrendts, the president of Gucci America, who came all the way from New York.
Simon has a lot of information about Angela Ahrendts in his memory, which is why he took a special look at her in the pile of resumes provided by Sophia Fessey.
In the original time and space, Angela Ahrendts once served as the CEO of the famous British luxury brand Burberry. Because she re-led this century-old classic luxury brand to reach its peak, Ahrendts received the attention of Apple, and He successfully joined the world's largest electronics company by market value and became Apple's senior vice president in charge of retail business. He was once rumored to be Tim Cook's successor.
Angela Ahrendts is only 28 years old now, but after a few months in office, her work performance has made both Simon and Sofia very satisfied. Sofia now also plans to adopt some of Ahrendts' business ideas to reform Gucci stores in Europe and Asia, and privately revealed to Simon that in two or three years, Ahrendts may be solely responsible for the entire Gucci operation.
Santa Monica.
Angela Ahrendts spent the entire lunch at a seafood restaurant in Venice Beach explaining her ideas for customer experience, financial management and marketing to Simon.
Simon just listened carefully and occasionally asked some questions of his own.
With the rapid expansion of the business territory of the Westeros system, Simon now only needs to have a general understanding of some business concepts and be aware of them. He does not need to be proficient in specific and micro-operations, and he does not have the time and energy to do so.
Lunch lasted until two o'clock in the afternoon.
Near the end, Angela Ahrendts mentioned another thing: "Simon, regarding the Gucci Night event at the Cannes Film Festival, Ms. Fessey still hopes that you can go to France in person."
After the Oscars in March, the 'Gucci Night' jointly organized by Gucci and Daenerys Entertainment was so successful that Sophie Adam decided to replicate the marketing campaign at the Cannes Film Festival in May. The opening of the Cannes Film Festival this year is May 11, and the 'Gucci Night' there is scheduled for May 20, the second Saturday of the festival.
Simon heard Sofia talk about this when he was in Melbourne. He didn't pay much attention to it at the time. He just said that it would depend on his time schedule.
At this time, hearing Angela mention it again, Simon asked: "Do I have to go there?"
Angela Ahrendts nodded and said: "If you can't show up, many of the guests we hope to invite may not be there."
Simon thought about his work schedule.
Because the post-production time of "Batman" is very loose, and many tasks do not need to be monitored all the time. He basically spends half of his time on the post-production of "Batman" and the other half on the management of the company. Even though he was busy, it wasn’t to the point where he couldn’t leave at all.
The good operation of Daenerys Entertainment in the past few months has also proved that the company is on the right track and does not need Simon to keep an eye on it.
So he nodded in agreement.
Seeing that it was almost time, Simon called the waiter to pay the bill, and then asked Angela Ahrendts: "Do you have any plans for the afternoon?"
Angela Ahrendts was stunned for a moment and shook her head.
Simon noticed the hesitation in Ahrendts' eyes and realized what she had misunderstood. He explained: "Daenerys Entertainment has established a data analysis company to support Blockbuster operations. I'm going to have a look this afternoon. This Some of the concepts put forward by the person in charge of this company have a lot of overlap with what you just said. Maybe you two can have an exchange."
When Angela Ahrendts heard Simon's explanation, she felt a little embarrassed about the thought that had just crossed her mind. She nodded and said, "Nancy, we know each other."
Daenerys Analysis Company is located near Santa Monica Beach. The two left Venice Beach and arrived at their destination less than two kilometers north.
Looking at another branch office living in a three-story building, Simon looked forward to the completion of Daenerys Studios as soon as possible.
Nancy Brill was already waiting for him. When she saw the appearance of Angela Ahrendts, she looked obviously very happy. She pulled her and whispered, almost forgetting the existence of Simon as the boss in an instant.
Angela Ahrendts was not as unsophisticated as Nancy. She just chatted with her for a few words and said, "Simon said he wanted to see the results of your work together."
"Let's go upstairs," Nancy nodded when she heard Angela's reminder, and then said to Simon: "I happened to find something recently."
The three of them went upstairs together.
The second floor is the office area for data analysts. The surroundings are a bit messy, with various forms hanging on the walls. Some employees who are still working can't help but look over curiously when they see Simon, the big boss, appear. Simon did not act too coldly and greeted everyone warmly before beginning to listen to Nancy's explanation.
"Blockbuster's data management system will not be upgraded until September. However, based on the existing data, the analysis company has begun to cooperate with Blockbuster and has provided a lot of suggestions in terms of logistics, warehousing, management, etc." ," Nancy said, taking out a document from the filing cabinet on the wall and handing it to Simon, saying: "For example, this item, this is what I just wanted to tell you."
Simon looked through the file and found that it was an analysis report on the types of video rentals and sales in the Blockbuster chain store, which detailed the rental and sales data of various types of movies.
Looking through the documents in his hand, Simon asked: "Actually, the idea is not the most important. The key is, how can you ensure that Blockbuster can implement these suggestions without compromise?"
Nancy said: "I'm watching it personally now, of course they won't."
Simon raised his head: "Are you watching in person?"
"Yes," Nancy nodded and said, "In addition to being a director on the board of directors, I am now also the senior operations consultant of Blockbuster."
Simon wondered: "How come I don't know?"
Nancy was even more confused: "Do you need to know?"
"Okay," Simon was speechless. He remembered the last time Nancy forced the management of Blockbuster. Angela Ahrendts next to him reminded her helplessly: "When are you going to put Wayne Huey out?" Zanga stepped down and became chairman himself, remember to remind me."
Nancy said seriously: "According to Blockbuster's current expansion progress, by the end of next year, the number of Blockbuster chain stores will exceed 1,000, and Huey Zanga's capabilities will be somewhat insufficient."
Simon was defeated: "I was just joking."
Nancy still said seriously: "I didn't."
Simon glanced at the little woman who was a little shorter than him in a sky-high dress with a guilty conscience: "Um, Nancy, do you have any plans to oust Simon Westeros?"
Nancy shook her head: "No, you are the 100% controlling shareholder of Daenerys Entertainment. If I think so, it will only lead to myself being driven away."
Simon breathed a sigh of relief: "That's good."
