Chapter 81 Section 3

Hosse used his RCA connections to jump ship again to become president of Levi's Entertainment in Los Angeles, California.Livi belongs to a film studio specializing in the publishing and distribution of film videos. In 1985, the loss amounted to 20 million US dollars.Turning losses into profits is Huoser's specialty, and once he encounters such an opportunity, he is eager to try.Hosse took Katie and Eric and moved again, from the east coast of the United States to the west coast. Only the eldest son Lyle, who is a freshman at Princeton University, stayed in New Jersey. Another part of Jose Monadez's "American Dream" is to train the two sons who will inherit the Monadez family into outstanding talents, so that they can reach the pinnacle that they cannot reach in their careers and continue to write their own stories. A saga that began in America.Because Husse created a world entirely by punching and kicking himself, he also has high standards and strict requirements for his two sons.As a father, he can be said to be very meticulous about his children. He stipulates what they eat, what they do, what they read, and even what they think.He asked the children to spend every minute besides eating and sleeping, learning and mastering the "knowledge" that he thought would benefit them throughout their lives, and not to waste it on such things as playing and games.He also stipulated that the two brothers could only choose one sport, instead of playing whatever they wanted according to their own interests.At the same time, they are required not to participate in collective team events such as the three major ball games, but can only choose individual skill sports, such as swimming, tennis, skating, gymnastics, golf, and so on.When Lyle was 12 and Eric 9, their father chose tennis for them.

Jose Monadez's warlord-style education undoubtedly put a lot of pressure on Lyle and Eric. From a very young age, the brothers began to stutter, grind their teeth, suffer from stomach pains, and have a short temper.At the same time, because the mother is always obedient to the father, the two children can only seek comfort and warmth between each other. They depend on each other and take care of each other. Over time, they form an alliance in a sense against their parents. rule.Eric has said to his friends more than once that the person he admires most in this world is his brother Lyle.Although the two brothers are very close together, they have very different personalities.Lyle is withdrawn, indifferent, witty, and cunning, while Eric is quiet, submissive, timid, and sensitive.

Despite the Monadez couple's intellectual investment in their two children, things backfired, and both Lyle and Eric did mediocre in school.According to the teachers' reports, the Monardez brothers are inattentive in class and have poor self-care ability.Lyle wet the bed and played with stuffed animals until he was 14.Lyle is a movie fan, but until he was very old, he still believed in the stories in the movies, and he could never tell which were true and which were fictionalized by the screenwriter.The most unacceptable thing for Hosse is that many teachers think that Lyle and Eric have different degrees of mental retardation.

The problems with the Monadez brothers go far beyond that. In the summer of 1983, when Lyle and Eric were 15 and 12 years old respectively, their cousin Diana Moren came to the Monadès house for summer vacation.One night, when the three children were wrestling together, the brothers pinned Diana to the ground and stripped her naked.Another time, when Lyle and Diana were watching TV together, Lyle suddenly jumped on the little girl and squeezed her breasts. During high school, Lyall had a brief romance with a girl named Stacey Feldman.Stacey was the leader of the school tennis team at the time, and Lyle was the No. 1 player on the boys' team.Their relationship was very innocent, except that Lyle frequently gave Stacy jewelry and other things, and there had never been an incident similar to the Monadez brothers attacking Diana.After entering college, Stacey proposed to cut off contact with Lyle. Lyle tried to win the girl's heart with a mink coat, but Stacey refused.

Lyle is not a good student, he is tired of reading.Despite his father's persuasive teachings that the eldest son of the Monadez family should go to an "Ivy League college," Lyle was preoccupied with opening a restaurant with the old man's money after high school.However, he only told his friends about this, and Lyle never even dared to mention his wish to his parents because of Hosse's despotic power.Lyle knew what the result would be if he said it, and the only thing he could do was to resist passively. In 1986, Lyle submitted an application for admission to Princeton University, but was rejected by the school, so he obeyed his father's arrangement and temporarily took classes at a local community college for a year.During this time, Lyle began dating a restaurant waitress, Jamie Bisassi.Jamie Big Lyle is 5 years old and also plays tennis.The following year, after many efforts by Jose Monadez, Lyle finally entered Princeton University by relying on his minority background and tennis skills.Soon after, Lyle, 19, announced his engagement to Jamie, 24, and followed her to Alabama after Jamie accepted a job as a tennis coach.Husse was very annoyed when he found out, he used his relationship to secretly arrange a job for Jamie to teach tennis in Europe, thinking that as long as the girl left the United States, his son would change his mind and study hard. After painstaking efforts, he chased Jamie to Europe again.

After much effort, José managed to get Lyle back, but things still didn't go his way.At this time, Husse had accepted the position of president of Livi Entertainment and moved to Los Angeles with Katie and Eric.Hosse asked his older sister, Lyle's aunt, Terry, to take care of her eldest son, who was still studying in Princeton, and required Lyle to fly to Los Angeles every weekend for supervision.Lyle later said that such frequent long-distance travel delayed a lot of his homework. What's more serious, once he lost his psychology class notes and other things during the trip, which caused a catastrophe.

When Lyall returned to Princeton that weekend, he hurriedly asked his classmates to borrow notes to complete the homework assigned by the teacher.But later, the teacher in charge of the class decided that Lyle's psychological experiment report was purely plagiarized, which is absolutely impossible to be forgiven in a prestigious school like Princeton.According to the ruling of the Disciplinary Committee, Lyle was given a one-year suspension from school and was punished by staying in school for probation.Jose Monadez made a special trip to Princeton to appeal to the school for this matter, but it was invalid.Lyle felt so humiliated that he wanted to transfer to UCLA, which was closer to home, but his father insisted that he stay in Princeton and "get up from where he fell."
