Chapter 757 (1/2)
Christmas Eve.
After the Christmas Eve reunion, it was supposed to be a party night. There was neither a party nor an invitation to other people's parties in the villa of the Westeros.
In the evening, Sophia specially called her daughter back to the next room.
So it's just the Westeros.
After dinner, the female assistant took the initiative to take care of the three children. Simon and Janet hid in a living room on the second floor, turned off the light and hugged on the sofa together. The TV on one side was on, and the sound was very small. But through the French windows, we could see the city sky far and near. From time to time, there were clumps of brilliant fireworks, accompanied by the sound.
Ordinary people need to rush in during the festival to revel freely, enjoy big meals and arrange travel. For people at the top of the pyramid, as long as they want, this is life.
So the festival is no longer special.
Some of them stick to the man's chest foolishly. Janet looks at another cluster of fireworks just exploding out of the window and suddenly says, ”little boy, do you remember that we met Janet and Simon. Her eyes are more colorful. Then she gently shakes off the man's big hand holding her face and sticks it to his chest, saying softly:” little boy, I said, I just want to hug him It's enough to have you. You're still free. You don't need to be hindered by me, and you don't need to care what other people think. ”
Knowing that Janet was referring to Sophia's pregnancy, Simon just whispered, ”thank you.”
After a moment of silence, Janet volunteered, ”little boy, have you ever forgotten the dream we said on your 19th birthday?”
Simon nodded: ”No
During that birthday, Simon was in Arizona to help Katherine shoot blood corpse night. Janet drove to the visiting class and took him out alone. She said a lot of irrelevant words and dreams.
It's a little hard to destroy the world.
So I decided to rule the world first.
Janet looked up again and said with a smile, ”before, I thought dreams were just dreams. Unexpectedly, there was a day when I was getting closer to my goal.”
Simon also laughed and said, ”now I think it's less difficult to destroy the world. It's very troublesome to rule the world.”
”As long as we work together, it will come true.”
”And then,” Simon asked
Janet is not puzzled by this philosophical question: ”then, there will always be a next goal. The universe is so big and we are so small. Except death, no one can reach the end where we can't find a goal.”
Simon stroked the woman's soft blonde hair and said with a smile, ”let's work together.”
”Well.”
After a moment of silence, Janet quickly said, ”little boy, you just recited the Old Testament as if you were reading a poem. Will you read it to me?”
”Good.”
Simon nodded and thought for a moment. Tagore's ”life is like summer flowers” sounded in the room.
*I hear you.
*I hear music, from the moonlight and the carcass
* like bait, capturing the ethereal.
*Intense, pure.
*There are always memories running through the world
* I believe
* I believe that life is as gorgeous as summer flowers, and death is as quiet as autumn leaves
* it is not prosperous and chaotic, and its posture is like smoke
*
At the door of the room, Jennifer holds little Nick, who is only willing to sleep peacefully because of the sound of fireworks. Listening to the poems coming from the room, she bends her mouth slightly, stands still for a moment and turns quietly.
This Christmas comes on Sunday. After the holiday, some people have to start working again until the new year.
Simon also began to sort out and plan a lot of the layout of the westero system in the past few days between Christmas and new year. In fact, this is a very early idea. At home and abroad, economy and politics. In the past few years, Simon seems casual, but in fact, he has fallen a lot of pieces.
If trees want to harvest fruits, they can't grow freely. They must be nourished and pruned regularly.
In terms of economy, Simon is still in charge of the entertainment and technology sector, which is the core of the westero system. Janet continues to be responsible for the financial sector, which is equally important to the westero system. Simon will not ignore other corners, but he does not intend to spend too much energy.
In terms of politics, this time we just sorted out the political lobbying network of the Westeros system, and strengthened the overseas layout. It plans to set up some funds, similar to the operation of the so-called ”third-party funds” used by the US government.
In addition, the military forces and intelligence network directly under the Westeros family will also be more standardized integration, especially in the aspect of intelligence network, which used to be unrelated to each other in the past. However, if any intelligence network wants to be strong, it must form an interrelated organization to form a sufficiently tight network.
Such a team can't hide in the dark forever.Simon has tried to set up various shell detective companies or take the way of department affiliation.
