Chapitre 640: Chapter 640
After attending Jerry Brown's inauguration, Charles and Ivanka Trump didn't leave Sacramento right away.
In the suite of the Intercontinental Hotel, NBC was broadcasting a massive national protest in Tunisia, a North African country.
Ivanka, lazily draped in a bathrobe and leaning against Charles on the sofa, explained: "This happened because a few days ago, a university graduate in Tunisia's capital, unable to find a job because of the economic downturn, resorted to being a street vendor. Local police treated him harshly, and he set himself on fire in protest, succumbing to his injuries..."
Charles stared at the TV for a moment. "Tunisia is just the trigger. Next, it'll spread east to Libya, Egypt, and all the way to Syria!"
He rubbed his chin thoughtfully, realizing that the conflict would spread eastward, aiming at Syria.
With this initial spark, it was inevitable that Western countries would start to intervene. America's stance on Syria was already pretty clear.
"Looks like another war is coming," Ivanka sighed, seemingly uninterested. "Charles, I'm planning to run for the New York State Assembly. What do you think?"
Charles caressed her face gently. "What's so difficult about that? Should be a piece of cake. Isn't New York's new governor, Andrew Cuomo, pretty close with Ms. Huffington? Just go meet him when you're back in New York. The Cuomo family has been a prominent political family in New York for ages!"
"Yeah, I know," Ivanka responded, giving Charles a tender kiss.
...
Charles wasn't too concerned about the conflicts in North Africa and the Middle East. The glamorous and glittering Hollywood award season was more his style.
Ivanka went back to New York to start planning her political career, while Charles, back in Los Angeles, was ready for a new set of challenges!
Movies like The Social Network, The King's Speech, and Black Swan, which had been prominently featured at producers, directors, and writers guild events, were gearing up for some open and covert competition.
The head of MPAA switched from Dan Glickman to Christopher Dodd.
Fox News Channel (FNC) Chairman Roger Ailes started to lay low.
Capet Universal began planning its IPO.
In Los Angeles, at the SLS Beverly Hills Hotel, Charles was lounging in a warm pool with Kristen Stewart and Alexandra Daddario.
Not too far away, the TV was announcing that Lakers legend "Magic" Johnson had teamed up with Guggenheim Investment to form a group aimed at buying the Los Angeles Dodgers!
Kristen Stewart and Alexandra Daddario had just come from the set of The Twilight Saga: Breaking Dawn - Part 1 and were in Los Angeles for a short break.
Especially Kristen Stewart, who not only saw The Twilight Saga: Eclipse rake in $300 million in North America and $700 million worldwide, but also received praise for her performance in the indie drama The Runaways.
"This guy wants to compete with me for the Dodgers, huh?" Charles sneered.
Kristen Stewart glanced at the TV briefly before turning her attention back to Alexandra Daddario, smiling. "With a sexy lady like this soaking with you, you still have time to care about financial news?"
Alexandra Daddario chuckled, holding Charles close, her 34F figure rubbing against him. "Charles, your Nets are moving to Brooklyn this year. They're even holding an online poll to rename the team. Have you decided yet?"
Charles shook his head. "I haven't really given it much thought. Let's wait for the end of the season and see how the votes turn out!"
However, Charles was puzzled by why "Magic" Johnson was getting involved with the B League. After all, even Jordan had become the owner of the NBA's Charlotte Bobcats.
"Magic" should be eyeing an NBA team. Just with his funds, he'd need to gather investors to buy an NBA team. Like the Dodgers, he'd only end up a minority shareholder.
"Alright, I'm going to make a call," Charles said, kissing Alexandra Daddario on the cheek. He needed Dona Williams to look into Guggenheim Investments.
"Let's head back too! I'm done soaking," Alexandra said to Kristen Stewart. "How about some whiskey?"
"Sounds good," Kristen agreed happily.
Wearing a bathrobe, Charles called Dona Williams as soon as he got back to his room.
"Earvin Johnson and Guggenheim Investment want to buy the Dodgers?"
"I thought the owner of the Detroit Pistons was preparing to sell the team, and Johnson was trying to raise funds to buy them?"
"And he's planning to sell his Lakers shares?"
Listening to Dona Williams, Charles rubbed his forehead. He almost forgot Johnson still owned a share of the Lakers.
Before, he reminded his mother, Evelyn, to buy those Lakers shares.
Charles thought it over. "I guess Johnson couldn't outbid the competition for the Pistons, right?"
At this moment, Alexandra Daddario, done with her bath, came over. Charles motioned her to sit down next to him on the couch.
With Alexandra's sexy figure in his arms, Charles continued, "Talk to my mother and buy Johnson's Lakers shares. Then, investigate this Guggenheim Investment. I need to know who thinks they can compete with me for the Dodgers."
Charles talked on the phone while holding Alexandra close, feeling her 34F form.
"Got it. There's progress on Frank McCourt's side too, according to Molly. What's your plan, boss?"
"Good, then bring Molly Bloom to see me. Start by buying Johnson's Lakers shares," Charles said, hanging up as Alexandra got down in front of him.
He leaned back on the couch, enjoying the moment.
Not long after, Kristen Stewart joined them. "You know, one day, you might just die with a woman."
Charles chuckled. "Nah, it's good for my health," he said, holding and kissing Kristen passionately.
After a heated kiss, an aroused Kristen Stewart knelt down in front of Charles as well.
