At her daughter\'s age, she already had a boyfriend and knew about relationships between men and women, especially since the man was Mr. Hardy.

About half an hour later, Taylor finally came home, holding her Golden Globe trophy happily. Sara noticed that her daughter\'s lipstick was already smudged, and naturally, she knew what had happened.

Ten days later, the annual Academy Awards ceremony began.

For this year\'s Oscars, ABC Television had purchased the rights and planned to broadcast it live across the United States. Countless stars attended in their finest attire, and Irena was one of the on site hosts.

Hardy attended once again, accompanied by several women.

HD Films had a massive haul this time, with its two films garnering 12 nominations. Taylor was nominated for her role in Leon: The Professional, while Hedy Lamarr won the Best Actress award for her brilliant performance in Ghost, earning her the title of Best Actress.

When Hedy Lamarr went on stage to receive her award, her eyes were red.

Clap clap clap~~!

The audience erupted in applause.

The awards continued, with Leon: The Professional and Ghost also winning Best Director, Best Editing, Best Original Story, Best Original Song, and several other major awards.

When Hardy went on stage to accept an award, the audience burst into enthusiastic applause even before he could speak.

Now, his status was that of the owner of Hardy Group, with assets worth hundreds of millions of dollars, a top tycoon in Hollywood, the owner of a television station and a movie company, and the chairman of the actors union, wielding real power in Hollywood.

Since becoming the chairman of the union, Hardy has made some significant changes, such as regulating small talent agencies, purifying Hollywood\'s atmosphere, and improving the overall ecosystem, as well as helping many actors with issues directly affecting their interests.

Mayer, sitting in the audience, watched Hardy on stage and sighed. Hardy\'s influence in Hollywood had already begun to surpass his own.

And he had only been here for a little over a year.

Mayer, on the other hand, had spent decades painstakingly building his career.

Hardy accepted the trophy as the audience erupted in applause once again. Standing before the podium, he placed the trophy beside him and smiled at the gathered celebrities below. "I\'ve won an award, so shouldn\'t I give a brief acceptance speech?"

The audience chuckled softly, followed by another round of applause.

"If I must say a few words, I\'ll share some of my thoughts. Film is the seventh art, and this art is a fusion of many resources. Actors, directors, screenwriters, lighting technicians, prop masters, even stunt performers and extras all contribute.

"Everyone has put effort into this piece of art. While we focus on the actors, we should also care for those who work quietly behind the scenes. In the future, the Actors Guild will pay attention to the development of everyone, making the bloom of this artistic flower even more radiant."

Applause thundered through the audience. Discover stories with m,v l\'e-NovelBin.net

At the cocktail party following the awards ceremony, Hedy Lamarr drank a lot. Today, she had fulfilled one of her greatest lifelong wishes. As they left, she held onto Hardy\'s arm, a little unsteady.

In the car, Hedy Lamarr clung to Hardy\'s arm, her beautiful eyes gazing at him. "Take me home, won\'t you? I\'m so happy tonight, I don\'t want to sleep alone."

When they arrived at Hedy Lamarr\'s house, they spun into the room, leaving a trail of clothes behind them as they passionately embraced on the sofa.

A long time later...

Hedy Lamarr held the man close, her eyes filled with adoration.

"Thank you, Hardy."

...

With his current tasks completed, Hardy pulled out a planning document titled "Hardy Group\'s Nationwide Logistics Company and Warehouse Style Supermarket Plan."

This was an industry he had long set his sights on and was now ready to pursue.

Establishing a logistics company and a supermarket chain isn\'t easy. It requires significant capital to purchase land, construct logistics centers, and build large supermarkets, as well as needing a large workforce and numerous transportation vehicles.

While others could handle most of the work, Hardy immediately thought of Major General Williams regarding manpower. Williams was responsible for the resettlement of veterans, and every year, many soldiers and officers retired from service—a problem for him, but exactly what Hardy needed.

He picked up the phone and called Major General Williams. After a few rings, Williams\' office secretary answered. After Hardy gave his name, Williams soon took over the call.

"Hardy, it\'s been a while since you last contacted me," Major General Williams said with a laugh. The two were now genuine friends, speaking very casually.

"I know the General has been quite busy lately," Hardy replied with a smile.

"Shifting the blame onto me, are you? Well, it\'s true. I\'ve been busy selling things every day. I\'m almost like a shopkeeper now," Major General Williams said in a resigned tone.

"So, Hardy, what can I do for you?"

"I\'m planning to establish a logistics company soon, which will require a lot of manpower. I\'m also planning to set up a nationwide supermarket chain, which will also need a lot of people. So, I\'m here to ask you for help. I estimate I\'ll need two or three thousand veterans this year," Hardy said.

"That\'s good news for me. It solves a lot of issues with veteran placement, so I should be thanking you, Hardy. Don\'t worry, I\'ll give you as many as you need, and only the best ones," Major General Williams assured.

"You mentioned you\'ve become a shopkeeper selling things. What\'s that all about?" After the main topic was discussed, Hardy asked casually.
