448 The Unchangeable Bond

Hawaii, the capital city of Honolulu, and a few people from Raleigh flew back to RB. Simon also did not return to Kauai, staying in Honolulu above Oahu.

In the evening, Simon took Katherine Hills to a Chinese restaurant and ate hot pot.

The hot hot pot soup was soaked in various pieces of meat, and Simon ate it while wiping the sweat on his forehead.

"Huh, cool," Simon took a swig of beer, another chunk of meat.

Catherine Hills has already learned to use chopsticks with Simon. It is definitely a good thing for her boss to love Chinese food.

"Boss, the taste of this store seems to be a little different, and there is a bit of sting in the mouth," Kathryn Hills actually can eat spicier than Simon, but the spiciness is a little different.

"Oh, it's spicy and my lips are trembling. I've eaten it a few times when I was in China before, and it feels good to have less chili. If it's too much, I can't stand it," Simon said, continuing to add slices of meat.

"There are so many categories of Chinese food, I really can't distinguish them, each has its own flavor, no wonder you like it," Catherine Hills flattered.

"Is there anything in the group that needs my attention these days?"

Simon has been in Hawaii for more than ten days, and it is already the end of November, so he basically doesn't have to worry about the company.

"Next month, we need to start working on next year's budget plan, and there may be many meetings that the boss may need to attend!"

"Let's go back to Los Angeles tomorrow," Simon said, wiping his mouth. After all, the company has just gone public, so it's really not suitable to leave for a long time.

California, as the state with the strongest economy in the United States, recovered quickly after the financial tsunami.

The San Francisco metropolitan area has high-tech industries such as Silicon Valley, and the Los Angeles metropolitan area has Hollywood and other entertainment industries; plus aviation, weapons research and development and manufacturing companies.

The appeal of California is great for people in many parts of the world.

Located in the central part of California, the seaside town of Monterey, on the Pacific coast of Monterey Bay, has a pleasant climate and beautiful sea views.

Simon, who returned to Los Angeles, took the "Dream Sea" private yacht to Monterey Bay. The average daytime temperature in Monterey in winter is only about 16°C.

Simon docked his private yacht at the port of Monterey, and in the eyes of outsiders, he must be continuing his vacation.

In the evening, Simon waited on the yacht for the person to meet, Ms. Barbara Boxer, one of the California Democratic senators, who is 70 years old.

There are 100 senators in the U.S. Congress, with two from each state. Washington, D.C. is not yet the 51st state in the United States, so of course there is no place.

Ms. Barbara Boxer, 70, and Ms. Diana Feinstein, 78, are senators from California.

"Madam, congratulations, I am re-elected as a senator this year," the U.S. senator is elected every six years, and one-third of the congress members change every two years. can be re-elected indefinitely.

"Simon, I also need your support, otherwise it will not be so easy, and there will be many opponents," Barbara Boxer expressed her gratitude to Simon, who holds the NBC wireless television network group. In Hollywood, the young people in front of them are not easy.

"In the next term, I may have to retire. Although Diana is 78, she has been re-elected as a California senator since the late 1980s. It is estimated that if you don't want to retire in the next term, you will still have a seat!"

Simon nodded, two California Democratic senators, Simon has been in contact with them in recent years. It's just that Ms. Diana Verstein is also a billionaire, with a lot of resources, and this person is basically a centrist, good at compromise, and does not have a deep relationship with Simon.

Barbara Boxer is different, many places need Simon's support, media, funds and so on.

"Los Angeles is the most important city in California's economy, and the entertainment industry is second to none in the world, but it also requires policy inclination in terms of taxation. Not to mention domestic cities such as New York and Atlanta, Ottawa, Montreal, London and foreign countries such as XN and Melbourne. The city has drawn too many Hollywood movies out, and Los Angeles is big, but it can’t keep going down.”

Simon needs to have councillors lobbying, and places like Xinghai Studios, Universal Studios, Universal Studios, etc. need a bigger interest. Even if Simon wants to beat the other big studios, the bigger the better for Hollywood as a whole.

"I understand that this financial tsunami, Congress's support for the entertainment industry is a blank check, and the strong endorsement of the financial industry has caused a lot of grievances in Hollywood. What should be fought for California, we will definitely fight for it," Barbara Of course, Boxer understands the exchange of interests. Xinghai Entertainment has a great influence in Los Angeles, and everyone gets what they need.

The two talked for an hour and a half before Barbara Boxer left.

Sitting on the sofa, Simon poured himself a glass of champagne, lit another cigar, and smoked.

Kamala Harris, a 47-year-old minority, was elected California Attorney General last year and was previously the District Attorney for the Old JS.

Barbara Boxer revealed that this woman is ambitious, will do anything to achieve her goals, and has a strong desire for power. If the next Barbara Boxer retires, she is likely to be the one to succeed the California senator.

Simon smiled. This woman had been in Simon's eyes as early as last year, not only that she could be elected California Attorney General. What's more, Simon knew that in the future she also had a name Harris, and would become the vice president of the United States, the first African-American and Asian vice-president.

After all, Barbara Boxer's parents are Jamaican and Indian.

"Banning guns" has always been one of the hot topics of debate in the United States. Barbara Boxer wants Simon to back her gun ban.

"Hehe, ban guns!" Simon doesn't care about how many shootings occur in the United States every year. Whether he supports it or not depends on how much benefits different congressmen can provide.

Arms dealers are a bunch of lunatics, and they are all rich and powerful, and now Simon Pike's identity is different. It is absolutely forbidden to make some clear-cut statements in formal occasions, otherwise the impact will be great.

Hollywood is also America's window to foreign culture. This force is very strong. Because of the growth of Xinghai Entertainment, Simon Pike's own identity has also risen.

Wall Street, Hollywood, sports, no one can underestimate themselves.

Xinghai Entertainment and the Nine-headed Bird Consortium represent a huge group of forces. No matter who wants to move the overall interests, they will be subject to unimaginable revenge.

After Barbara Boxer left, she sat in her car, sighed, and said to the assistant next to her: "After returning to Sacramento, make an appointment with Ms. Diana Verstein for me!"

In return, we must pay, which is the unchanging bond between politicians and businessmen in the United States.
