Chapter 390 If you have a conscience, you are not a capitalist

Many of Avril Lavigne’s songs from this album immediately landed in the top ten of the Billboard chart as soon as they were released at the end of last year.

Album sales were 731K in the first week, breaking Britney's annual record of 712K at the beginning of the year.

The first month sales volume was 2150K, which is 2.15 million copies, directly ranking first in the first month sales volume in the past three years.

The name Avril Lavigne also has the word "pure punk".

It was also listed in Google search. It was in the top 10 hot words list not long after it was launched, and it has not yet come down from the top.

To sum it up in one sentence, Avril Lavigne is popular.

David Geffen is indeed a master of music production.

Teaching students in accordance with their aptitude and adapting to local conditions, a highly contrasting character, and Avril Lavigne’s own talent.

As soon as she debuted, she would be at least several times more popular than her in parallel time and space.

After experiencing this explosive feeling, Avril was willing to work hard to maintain her pure white lotus image in front of the public.

As for what's behind... of course what it was before is what it is now.

When you grow up, it will be difficult to change your three views.

Abel held Avril in his arms. He liked that she was so inconsistent:

"In short, dear, you have to understand that in front of the public, your "innocence" is more important than anything else. You must always pay attention to this."

"Huh, am I still innocent? You..."

Avril pouted her red lips, hummed softly, put her arms around Abel's neck, and said coquettishly and angrily.

It was this bad guy who, after the media recognized him as a "music queen".

When he was working on himself, he became more energetic.

He was more proactive and energetic than when he started.

Avril, who understands Abel's bad intentions, of course knows the reason.

"Haha, you can play around like this with someone who is ranked 19th among the 25 most pure beauties in the United States selected by The Hollywood Reporter magazine. Gee, should I be proud?"

Abel teased jokingly.

"So, is it fun?"

Avril's pretty face was slightly red, she bit her Chun and said softly with charming eyes.

“Delicious! Very delicious!”

"Giggle, do you want to continue... playing now?"

Avril whispered in Abel's ear.

"Tsk, tsk, you little greedy cat... you obviously thought of it yourself!"

What else could Abel say to such an invitation from Avril, who knows her tastes?

Naturally, I can only satisfy her simple request!

Princess Abel picked up Avril, who had been watching him with twinkling beautiful eyes, smiled slightly, and walked towards the bedroom.

Only Abel knows, even though he is following the contradictory beauty route of purity + rock.

In the past and in the future, we have been working hard to create and present the character, and it will always be this route.

Over the years, she has become one of the most beautiful and innocent actresses selected by various media magazines.

But essentially, she is not a good girl.

Avril Lavigne has a very strong musical talent.

He is uninhibited and wild in certain things. Although he is petite, he is not American.

But essentially, she is just a standard American girl.

This kind of person is different from others and can make Abel experience completely different feelings.

Well, it was just like that time in the Hilton Hotel in Brooklyn, New York.

At the last moment.

Abel asked her, are you ready? Are you sure?

Under the watchful eyes of Sophie Marceau and Penelope.

Avril Lavigne said, ready! Of course I am sure!

As Abel saw it, she couldn't be better prepared and couldn't be more certain.

Just like now.

I don't know how long it took, but in the dark bedroom, the moonlight filtered through the gauze curtains and sprinkled on the floor.

Abel put his arm around Avril, who was already exhausted and fell asleep.

With one arm behind his head, his bright eyes opened in the dark night.

Just like she was yesterday, just like Britney is today.

After a few hours, the innocent punk Avril couldn't hold it anymore.

Abel looked at the clock hanging on the wall. It was past 11 o'clock.

Come on, it’s only four hours…

How shameless.

Dududu——

The cell phone placed on the cabinet next to Simmons started vibrating.

Abel looked at the clock again——

January 8, 2002, 23:15 pm West Coast time.

Seeing this time, he smiled slightly, then stretched out his long arm and took the phone over.

"Hello?"

"BOSS. There was an accident at California Pacific Electric."

"What kind of accident?"

"It suddenly exploded at a substation in Southern California. The explosion caused a fire, which spread to nearby areas. Many residents' houses were burned down. In addition, there were seven employees in the substation. Three people were killed on the spot, and four people had already died.

He was sent to the hospital for emergency treatment and his life was temporarily out of danger."

"What a horrific and heartbreaking surprise... What did CEO Shoups say?"

Abel is the chairman of California Pacific Electric, in which he holds 50.9% of the shares.

But all along, because of other shareholders and the local government in California, Abel has not had too much involvement in California Pacific Electric.

Because Abel already has a Pacific Energy.

If he had his hands full with California Pacific Electric.

Then, 2/3 of California's energy supply, in terms of electricity and gas, will be controlled by him.

In the area of ​​gasoline and diesel, 1/4 will be affected or controlled by him.

This is something that is difficult for many local giants in California to accept.

Under the influence of these local snakes.

Even if Abel holds as much as 50.9% of the shares.

But California Pacific Electric, he still hasn't been able to completely control it.

From beginning to end, except for a few inspections.

It can be said that there are not many traces of him in California Pacific Electric until now.

It is because these local snakes are constantly persuading, discouraging, and lobbying the local government in California.

What if Abel didn't have any skills and just relied on money to win these things?

Maybe even his 50.9% stake in California Pacific Electric will have to be sold.

It is precisely for this reason that Pacific Energy has been unable to integrate California Pacific Electric.

In California, the media is controlled by local local gangsters.

There has been propaganda to the local people that once the two Pacific Oceans merge.

Then there will be an energy "trust" in California's local energy supply.

Under the opposition of these local snakes.

Abel also had no way to continue to acquire shares of California Pacific Electric.

Because California authorities, and even authorities in several states on the West Coast, have clearly expressed their opposition.
To be continued...
