  Chapter 341 Roland's "Love"

   As the saying goes, spoken words are like poured water, and if you blow it by yourself, you have to finish it while kneeling.

  At the beginning, when faced with the planning of the British royal wedding that Kate had found, Roland said very affirmatively:

  ‘Wedding photos don’t need to be taken in a limited location’

  ‘Anyway, if you have money and leisure, you can go wherever you want’

   Not only that, he was young, frivolous and ignorant, and he was talking nonsense at the time, saying:

  ‘The wedding dress on the wedding day is individually customized, and others can refer to first-line finished products’

  ‘Buy whatever you like, it’s a once-in-a-lifetime event, you can’t just settle for it’

  So, Kate, who was warmed by these two bold words, synthesized them a little according to the context.

   First, I took Roland to go to major wedding dress brands to choose the style I like.

  The most classic wedding dresses with heart-shaped necklines, round-the-neck wedding dresses that accentuate the waistline, vintage-style wedding dresses with one-line necklines, wedding dresses with lace sleeves that add temptation, and mermaid wedding dresses that outline the figure, she...

   I bought them all.

If it is said that the behavior of picking seventeen sets in three days is completely within the range of Roland's acceptance, because while he is sitting in the dressing room admiring Kate's change of clothes, the money needed to buy these wedding dresses has already been given by his tools. After earning it, Kate's reluctance to wear clothes, ah bah, was a reluctance to wear ordinary clothes, which really made him see the madness of women.

   After choosing the wedding dress, Kate took Roland to discuss the location of the wedding photos.

  The Mouth of Truth in Rome, the Wall of Love in Paris, the Sagrada Familia in Spain, the Amalienborg Palace in Copenhagen, the sea of ​​flowers in Amsterdam, the poetic lake in Fussen, the cliff heights in North Cape...

   These are places Kate wants to be.

  After finalizing the location, Kate, who flew to where to take pictures, was like playing around Nuan Nuan.

   According to different scenery, choose different wedding dresses, and then think about the shape and pose.

In the past few months, what Roland has seen the most is the woman wearing a wedding dress and the woman wearing nothing. Compared with this monotonous change, the joy overflowing from every pore on her body is so beautiful. It is the only one forever.ʀᴇᴀᴅ ʟᴀᴛᴇsᴛ ᴄʜᴀᴘᴛᴇʀs ᴀᴛ novelenglish.net . Firᴇ(.)nᴇt

  At first, Roland thought it was Kate's excitement after her wish came true.

  Because he knows that Kate is also a guy who is more rational than emotional.

   And the other party said to himself before—

  'I like your face first, and then your money, and finally I gave up my acting career for you'

But when Kate took out the drawing board prepared by the assistant in advance, and acted like a baby to Roland, asking him to record a sweet picture belonging to the two of them every time he went to a city, Roland discovered that even people with a hard heart also have own fantasy.

  Even if the original intention of the two parties is to combine interests, but after going through this link and deciding to build a family together for a lifetime, the kind of mutual communication that knows the root and the bottom of the heart can make the two parties have a closer relationship.

   This kind of feeling is not love, but it has surpassed love.

  In life, lovers may still have their own little Jiujiu, but they don't.

  Because both parties know each other's goals.

   Roland helped Kate fulfill her greatest wish in life, and Kate understood that Roland had fallen in love with power.

   There may be conflicts between lovers whose three views are more consistent, but they don't.

  Because most of the conflicts in the world originate from greed.

  But they... what else can they be greedy for now?

   This subtle change surprised both of them. They even believed that if they replayed "Titanic" again, the current state of the two could completely crush the previous **** and love.

   But while they were surprised, they were also happy about it, because no one wants to live a lifetime with a hard rock.

  So, for Roland now, drawing pictures for his mother-in-law is indeed the most important thing.

  Because business is never finished, and people cannot be missed.

   As long as there is someone who has a relationship, there is always a chance to remedy the failed business, but if the person in front of him runs away, where should Roland go to find someone who can talk to him? With the improvement of his status, what he desires most now is not money and love, but talking and listening, because only this method can make him feel warm when he is lonely.

   "Finally finished drawing?"

After Roland approached his mother-in-law with his masterpiece, Kate, who had been standing for almost three hours, softened and leaned against her man without any image. While supporting Roland, she bent down and kept repeating Pat your legs with your hands.

   "Oh! It's so numb! If you slow down, my legs will probably be broken!"

   Crying and complaining made Roland purse his lips and chuckle, "Isn't this the posture you chose yourself? It's not what I asked for."

  When the two came to Budapest, the capital of Hungary, Kate, who saw the Fisherman's Bastion and the Danube, wanted to take a photo of a girl looking at the distant battlefield based on the war history here, hoping that her fiancé would return triumphantly and marry her.

  Creativity, copywriting, content, storyboards... everything was prepared by Kate herself.

   And Roland is just a tool man who listens to his wife.

  Although this is a fact, how can Kate be happy to say such words of shirking responsibility at this time?

It's like a couple playing a game and playing an arena. After winning a game, the girl who is a nanny happily told her boyfriend that her healing amount had reached a new high. But at this time, her boyfriend suddenly returned. In a word, that's because the other three DPS in my family are too stupid, standing directly in the enemy's AOE to take a bath.

   Isn't this asking for a fight?

  Is this girl here to discuss techniques with you?

No!

  People just want you to praise her for being amazing!

so-

   Kate, who was still hammering her legs, got up with a pout.

   Since today's photo shoot is about lovesickness, Kate is wearing a long-sleeved wedding dress with no shoulders or back.

  In order to reflect my longing for my lover and interpret my loyalty to love, this wedding dress does not have any complicated patterns.

  From top to bottom, a piece of pure white, extremely simple.

  Because of this, when Kate frowned and glared at Roland, the youthfulness in her boudoir exploded instantly.

   And when she raised her hand and hammered at Roland's shoulder, the little awkwardness of losing her temper made her even more cute.

   "If you can't speak, don't speak!"

   "No one thinks you are dumb!"

   "What is the posture I choose?"

   "This is obviously the result of my discussion with you!"

   "Did I gag you during the discussion?"

   "I didn't take away your right to advise from the beginning!"

   "So! You can't blame me alone now!"

  The slapping of 'Papa Papa' attracted the attention of the surrounding staff.

  Although the voice was loud, every slap of Kate hit the shoulder pads of the suit.

   The loud thunder and the little rain made Roland speak quickly, and said with a smile: "Hey! Look at my memory!"

   "I forgot this is the result of our discussion!"

   "But this matter is really one person's responsibility!"

   "Who told you to be so beautiful after wearing this conservative wedding dress?"

   “When I was just drawing, I was thinking, how can you come up with such a good idea?”

   "Compared to you, I haven't learned any composition skills from Steven and James these years!"

The flattering words made Kate, who was not angry at all, roll her eyes, and when Roland smiled and presented her finished work in front of her, she couldn't help pursing her lips in anger in front of Roland. Her beautiful eyes turned into crescent moons.

  Kate in the painting, leaning against the castle loft, the open door proves that she belongs.

  Hands on the fence, the slightly sloping curve perfectly interprets the inner expectations and desires.

   Facing the distance, there are mountains, forests and rivers with a few brushstrokes, symbolizing love that is like a bubble.

  The sparkling Danube is like a moat, perfectly dividing reality and dreams.

   "The drawing is not bad."

  Although she was very happy, Kate still said with a cheeky duplicity: "There is room for improvement."

  The bulging cheeks made Roland shake his head again and again, "No, no, no, no matter how hard I try, I can't draw your true beauty."

  The schoolboy-like words finally made Kate lose her power. She tilted her head and said with a smile, "Eh? You're getting excited, aren't you?"

   "Ah, I don't understand what you're talking about." Roland continued to play dumb.

  However, this kind of deadly behavior directly deprived Kate of his chance to defend himself, "Okay! Don't you understand?"

   "Then you don't need to understand!"

   "My feet are numb, carry me back."

  ‘What? ’ Roland was startled.

   Before he could react, Kate put her hands around his neck, and her body naturally relaxed.

  Like a koala, it hung on the body of his own man.

  Being like this made Roland call him a loser, but after he and the brazen guy looked at each other for a while, the proud look made him admit defeat, and he took her away from the scene in the posture of a princess hugging her.

   "Where to?"

  Roland didn't want to give this guy who pushed his nose a good face.

   Kate, who was content, giggled.

   "Go back to the hotel and change clothes to eat, isn't that how we live these days?"

For ordinary people, taking wedding photos may be both physical and mental torture, because the merchants who want to make money will constantly manipulate you, asking you to make various poses according to their requirements, in order to achieve Large-scale production for a limited time.

  But for Roland and Kate, there is only one thing to do with the merchants who follow the shooting.

   That is to shut up.

  In this way, it is the norm in the regiment to act according to preferences.

   During the meal, they had already talked about everything, and they also talked on the phone in the afternoon.

   "Who called you when you were painting in the afternoon?" Kate asked.

   "David." Roland replied casually.

   "David? Why is he calling suddenly? Did he want to ask how your wedding preparations are going?" Kate was curious.

  Hearing this, Roland shook his head like a rattle, "Oh no! It's a business matter."

   "He told me that Amazon has learned from some sources that News Corp. wants to enter the e-commerce field..."

  Roland briefly explained the matter.

   "Is that serious?"

After listening to the cause of the incident, Kate asked again with concern: "Should we go back? Or find someone to inquire about News Corporation? Didn't you just swallow their Blue Sky Studio? Could this be revenge?"

  Although Kate has always said that until the wedding is over, everything has to be her way, but…

  This kind of thing is just casual talk.

  When she has nothing to do, she will take away the right to speak at home, but when things come to your door, support and companionship is the only choice.

"Need not."

  Roland didn't worry that much, and repeated his previous judgment.

   “News Corp. will not take risks when the dot-com bubble collapses…”

   "What if?" Kate was still a little worried.

"Just in case? Not in case." For such a thing, Roland beeped confidently, "For things like e-commerce, you need to burn money to eat up the market. News Corporation can afford this money, but the market won't give it to you." The confidence that they burn money..."

"Even if News Corporation can convince all shareholders to choose to enter the market after the Internet bubble collapses, what they will do is to acquire those e-commerce platforms that are still surviving in the market, but apart from Amazon, there are still surviving e-commerce platforms in the market now. , isn’t it eBay? And the best way to get rid of eBay is to…”

   "What is it?" Kate hated Roland's half-speaking behavior the most, "Hurry up!"

  ‘Paji’

   The slap hit his man's thigh again.

   "I said I said..."

  Roland couldn't deal with this kind of person, so he directly revealed the puzzle, "The best way to destroy eBay is to acquire PayPal..."

   That's right! From Roland's point of view, those media groups that are hostile to News Corporation are too unprofessional!

  Because it owes nearly tens of billions in debt, News Corporation, which is under the hammer of those media giants, has no time to burn money in new industries!

  Even if News Corporation really carried out a capital invasion and wanted to get revenge on Roland by buying, buying, buying...

  Then Roland can buy, buy, buy and call back!

  Because besides Amazon, there is only eBay on the market that is worth buying!

  If JD copied Amazon, then Taobao copied eBay.

  As a B2C e-commerce platform, Amazon does not require third-party payment endorsement, but as a C2C e-commerce platform, without the endorsement of a third-party payment platform, users simply dare not choose.

   As the saying goes, B2C has three treasures: brand, channel, and good sales; C2C has three treasures: you open, I buy, and Alipay.

  Taobao took off because of the existence of Alipay, and eBay was not eliminated because of the acquisition of PayPal. In this way, the best way to strangle eBay is to acquire PayPal.

   As for what to say, News Corporation can also make a PayPal by itself...

   Then this is whimsical.

   Before moving the company to the United States, without Wall Street's intervention, those politicians who want to kill them can fill the Pacific Ocean.

   To be honest, if News Corporation wants to retaliate through other channels, Roland will still be nervous, but e-commerce...

  The probability that News Corporation can win is not even as high as the probability of only one like after account hacking!

   "Then you want to acquire PayPal?" Kate relaxed again after hearing what Roland said.

   And Roland's answer was even more casual, "Take it, when we go back in August, let David take it..."

  Although Roland is full of confidence, he still chooses to be cautious after making the mistake of arrogance like last time.

   Regardless of whether News Corp. is going to attack him or not, there is nothing wrong with buying PayPal.

   First, after PayPal is acquired, it can effectively threaten eBay and consolidate Amazon's position in the circle.

  Secondly, he is the major shareholder of Apple and Google after all.

  After the acquisition of PayPal, it can monopolize the entire third-party payment market. When Apple mobile phones are popular all over the world, ApplePay will be directly cut off. When Android confronts it, GooglePay will be stillborn.

   While credit cards are the mainstream way people pay,…

   There is no need for so many third-party payments.

   It is enough for one family to do this kind of business, but it is better for Roland to do it by himself!

   Like Warren Buffett said—

  "Each of our companies wants to live longer and live more comfortably, and ultimately needs to build its own moat."

  PayPal is a moat, a moat that can contain the development of opponents while growing itself.

  As for why I didn’t talk about this kind of thing before, it’s because…

   "August?" After hearing this word, Kate froze for a moment.

  Because she didn't know why Roland said this inexplicably.

But when Roland pulled her into his arms, inserted his hands into her hair, massaged the scalp, and helped her recall, Kate, who was like a cat, suddenly realized the refreshing feeling, "Oh...I almost forgot about those things! "

   "August, that's when Hot Moms comes out, right?"
