Chapter 81 Reasons for leaning towards the White Robe Society
"I feel like I'm on the way to a brothel with you now, Stephen." Under the night, Tommy and Stephen leaned against a lamppost on Stanford's Greek Avenue, like two young drunks with nothing to do. Carrying two Miss Pink energy drinks.
This thing is actually a genuine alcohol product. The main ingredients in it are caffeine, taurine, guarana and absinthe alcohol. The packaging is pink, so it is nicknamed Miss Pink. Minors and college students do not need any restrictions , You can buy this so-called energy drink in the supermarket.
As for the legality of energy drinks containing alcohol and caffeine, it depends on who the owner of this product is, Molson Coors Brewing Company, the largest brewing company in the United States and Canada.
Let’s put it this way, when this beverage was produced and put on the market in 1980, some parents of students complained that their children were addicted to alcohol because of this product, but now three years have passed, and this product still has no impact on normal sales. The main reason is that Molson Coors hired a large number of former senior government officials as directors of its numerous subsidiaries and hired numerous lobbying companies for public relations.
Stanford University stipulates that students cannot drink alcohol in public, but there is no rule that they cannot drink energy drinks. Therefore, many college students who cannot get beer will buy a pink lady if they want to drink and walk along the street. Although the alcohol content is a bit low, it is better than taking Looking like an adult with a can of juice drink.
"That's our brothel." Stephen pointed to a two-story building with the words ZDB and Roman-style doorposts not far away, and said with a smile: "ZDB, everyone used to call them Betty's Club, Stanford's best sorority, our VSA fraternity organization, the difficulty of membership selection is much more complicated than us boys, height, hair color, pupil color, bloodline, clothing, sexual experience, family background...except for a few high-ranking government officials. Except for the ugly girls, all of them are qualified to participate in the Miss Universe beauty pageant, each of them can be noble in appearance and dissolute in heart, it is said that they will also exchange skills in internal meetings, you know, that's the kind of skill."
What Stephen said in Tommy Hawke's heart is quite fascinated. You must know that such a traditional selection of members and sororities that cultivate bed partners for fraternities are rare in 2022.
Although there are still sororities in 2022, unlike fraternities that rarely change their admission standards, sororities are more in line with the times, first starting with aesthetic diversity, then ugly culture, of course, it may also be where Tommy was at that time The Asian fraternity ranks in the school are average, and the quality of sorority sororities is so-so, but the vast majority of sororities are unlikely to screen newcomers according to the criteria Stephen said at this time, otherwise they will be complained to the university by freshmen, maybe a few big hats Withhold it, and the sorority will be closed down.
"As for the BDP of the White Robe Club, it's called the Blonde Club. The selection criteria are much worse than that of the Betty Club. It can only be regarded as the sorority with the most blonde girls in Stanford University." Stephen saw Tommy looking at the building of the Betty Club. Jia's eyes became hot, and he added with a smile.
Tommy withdrew his gaze, looked at Stephen, and said with a smile: "Actually, I created a freshman party just to attract the attention of the Order of the Phoenix or the White Robe Society. These two fraternities are the ones I wanted to join before reporting. , but after I finished the report and got a more detailed understanding of some information, I now prefer the White Robe Club."
"Why? Do you want yourself to wear the white robes of the Ku Klux Klan of the White Robe Society? Brother, you will lose the friendship of Prime Minister Madouf and all the black people in St. Vincent. Those **** don't know how to treat black friends equally." Stephen heard Tommy's voice Intention, showing an unacceptable expression.
In his opinion, there is no doubt that Tommy Hawke will join VSA with him, one is because of his friendship with him, and the other is because VSA is more enlightened and more gentlemanly, and those idiots in the White Robe Club can't wait to engrave his face directly. I am a white person, and those **** regard the executioners who invaded Vietnam, maintained the Vietnamese monarchy, and hindered the democratization of Vietnam as heroes, and raise donations for those blood-stained war criminals every year.
Tommy lowered his head, as if he was considering his words, how to explain to his friend.
But this question is difficult. He can't tell Stephen that he is from 2022. He found that there is a billionaire named Ross Perot on the roster of fraternity alumni of the White Robe Club.
In a sense, he is an American business icon that Tommy admires very much. In his last life, he also read that guy's autobiography. No matter in business or politics, Ross Perot has achieved blockbuster success.
When he was in politics, he ran for President of the United States on the same stage with Bush Sr. and Clinton in 1992. He emerged from the siege of the two parties and won 18.9% of the votes. Even though he lost the election, from the day he failed until his death, Ross Perot has always been the target of the Republicans and Democrats.
He is a genius in the IT industry as a businessman. After retiring from the Navy in 1957, he joined IBM and became the sales champion of IBM on the west coast within one year. He completed the annual personal sales target set by the company in just two weeks. Let IBM headquarters think that the sales data submitted by the West Coast branch has made mistakes.
He left IBM in 1962 and founded EDS. In 1968, EDS went public. In three days, the stock price of EDS rose from $16 per share to $165. It was on the cover of Fortune magazine and was called the fastest money maker by the magazine. , the wealthiest Texan.
The internal network of Boston University, where Tommy studied in his last life, is responsible for both software and hardware from construction to maintenance, and Ross Perot’s EDS company is in charge. EDS’s customers are not only Boston University, but also many large companies, banks and government agencies. .
If Tommy really decides to start a business and designs a good software, he would prefer to hand over his proposal to the office of Ross Perot, rather than in the hands of other software tycoons in Silicon Valley. Ross Perot is a typical The pragmatist of Tommy, who also believes in pragmatism, has the same view of the world and may be easier to communicate with.
This guy has no factions and no standpoints. As long as he thinks it is helpful to me, he will use it for me. When he founded EDS in the 1960s, the United States was full of hostility towards China. Ross Perot also had a lack of favor for China. However, when the company distributed the English version of Mao Xuan for free to allow employees to study hard, and was criticized by opponents for supporting China, Ross’s reaction in an interview was:
"China is indeed a threat to the United States, but this book is not, it is a tool for me to learn to think in a different way, and those who criticize me have no idea what is going on in the world, they have not even read this book , just because the author is Chinese, I feel that I have found a reason to criticize me, thinking that it will give me a headache, but in fact, this kind of trick hits me without pain, and they will just wait helplessly I was completely wiped out by me who was constantly absorbing nutrition and gradually evolving. My greatest joy in doing business is to eliminate this low-level businessman who lacks structure and vision for the United States."
Compared with Bill Gates, Steve Jobs and IT tycoons, Ross Perot's net worth may be a lot worse, but the main reason is that the guy didn't want to waste his life on making money. What he always wanted to do from the beginning to the end was to change the United States, but changing the United States needed money, so he went to make money by the way. In fact, he was once an angel investor of Jobs.
And the influence among middle and lower-class Americans, the above two IT tycoons are not convincing compared with Ross Perot. Let's put it this way, write the names of these three people on a piece of paper, let Tommy's Dad and his fellow workers came to identify, 100% of those uneducated workers could recognize Ross Perot's name, and then they could tell each other's legendary experience.
The lower the Americans, the more they yearn for heroes in this world, and Ross Perot is a hero to many Americans.
In 1978, the Iranian government imprisoned two senior officials of the Iranian branch of EDS on the grounds of bribing government officials, and issued a sky-high bail of 12.75 million US dollars, one person.
At that time, Iran had not yet revolutionized and had a good relationship with the United States. The United States meant that Ross Perot’s company paid for bail. Anyway, the two did bribe Iranian officials for the company’s business. After the bail, the embassy can help. This statement also represented the failure of formal diplomatic channels to negotiate. After Ross Perot determined that the US government could not provide help, he finally chose to take the money out by himself.
But instead of paying bail to Iran, and hired the retired U.S. Army Special Forces Colonel Arthur Simmons as the commander, he formed a rescue team composed of seven retired U.S. Special Forces elites. Sass built a prison of the Iranian Ministry of Justice, conducted combat simulations, formulated detailed combat plans, and prepared for armed rescue.
The reason why Ross Perot is considered a hero by countless Americans is that he did not hide in the United States, but chose to follow the rescue team deep into Iran when the rescue team set off, just to rescue his two employees.
The result is naturally happy for everyone. After going through untold hardships, the rescue team successfully rescued two employees, took them to break through the Iranian border, and arrived in Turkey. All the employees of EDS Iran also evacuated from Iran.
Afterwards, Ross Perot said in an interview, no matter what, I will not abandon my EDS companions, and I will not give a penny to those **** who try to blackmail me.
This made Ross Perot and his EDS famous in one fell swoop.
Every American hopes that his boss can be like Ross Perot, who will never give up on himself, but this kind of thinking is tantamount to idiotic dreams, so they like Ross Perot who does not give up his employees even more. TV stations, newspapers, and novels all reported this rescue operation, and the film and television industry has been preparing to put him on the screen in the past two years.
"Ross Perot, he is a member of the White Robe Society, I hope to have the opportunity to meet each other in the next four years of fraternity activities, and help my father get an autographed photo with him as a gift. My father regards him as a gift. Idol." Tommy considered it for a few seconds, and finally came up with a reason that barely made sense.
It's normal for a boy at the bottom of a small town to worship an American hero who is praised by his parents. But these words may make Stephen realize that he is different from himself. After all, there are quite a few upper-class people and politicians in the United States. -Perot is a hero, but a hypocrite for fame. He doesn't want to pay high bail at all. After all, it is cheaper to find mercenaries to save people. That guy just seized the opportunity and successfully completed an image advertisement for himself.
Sure enough, upon hearing Tommy's answer, Stephen sighed: "Honestly, sometimes I forget that you are from that rural place in Warwick, and I also forget that you are different from me. You have family-oriented relatives, while I only have family indifference." relatives, a son always wants to be praised by his father, right?"
"Don't be too pessimistic. If those SSD guys don't choose me, then you have to lend a helping hand and make sure I can join a fraternity, pick up girls, and drink." Tommy raised the bottle and touched him said with a smile.
Stephen took a sip into his mouth, feeling a little disappointed: "I'm looking forward to those idiots* making you lose the election, but I don't think there's much hope, especially the idiots from the White Robe Society saw me bringing the VSA housing manager to see me You, as long as he didn't shoot his brain out when he was sleeping with a girl, he should understand and find out more detailed information about you immediately. Hey, it doesn't matter whether it's the White Robe Club or the Phoenix Order, it doesn't affect the two of us CSLS relationship, right?"
"It's hard to say, brother." Tommy said with a straight face and a flat tone.
Stephen was taken aback, looked at Tommy, the next second Tommy laughed, and pointed in the direction of Betty Club: "Unless you are not going to introduce those girls to me because I joined the White Robe Club."
"Actually, I have a better introduction to you. I'm going to Los Angeles next month. Would you like to go with me? There was a reception held by a Hollywood production company, and the financial company that helped me handle the money received a proposal from the other party. There are exactly two invitation letters sent to me, and the other party hopes that I will use some money to invest in movies, and it is said that there will be some young actresses who are very open-minded at the reception." Stephen breathed a sigh of relief, and then told Tommy mysteriously Said.
Tommy looked at Stephen with a bright smile, hesitated for a moment, and said: "Hollywood is said to be very open, but your best choice is not to waste your spot and take me to meet the world, but to bring your professional investment Manager, let him deal with the other party for you, the film company can use any means to attract investment, if you want to sleep with an actress, you don't have to go to that kind of reception to strike up a conversation with the actress."
Although women's equality has been called for in the United States for many years, in places like Hollywood, actresses are just men's vassals and corporate resources. From Shirley Temple, Marilyn Monroe, to the now well-known Hollywood actresses, they want to make themselves To become a Hollywood movie star, one must first learn to be a Hollywood whore.
Even though Tommy lives in Warwick, he has seen all kinds of gossip about Hollywood actresses and rich people or high-ranking officials in newspapers and on TV. In fact, after a little analysis, it is clear that it is a **** relationship or ordinary chat. The Italians and Jews in Hollywood simply send all kinds of actresses as prostitutes to those people for exchange of benefits. Even Americans have become numb to this kind of thing. After all, even the Kennedy brothers and Marilyn Monroe played two kings and one queen. I have already seen all kinds of gossip, so it doesn't matter how hot the other gossip is.
Respect women? In patriarchal Hollywood, actress and high-end call girl are synonymous.
This guy Stephen is young and rich. If a film company really treats him as a fat sheep and arranges a few actresses to entangle him, this guy is a bit of a gentleman, and he may spend a sum of money on impulse to invest in movies. It is often not too good. Generally speaking, it is completely waiting for the money to be wasted.
It’s not that the movie has no chance of being a hit, but if you’re an outsider and don’t have the intention to develop a long-term cooperation in the movie industry, the other party will naturally kill you. After all, even though your own actress is a prostitute, you can’t sleep in vain.
The other party obviously invested your money in a certain blockbuster film, but they will lie to you and tell you that the money was invested in another film that lost money, and there was no income. If you want to get back your money, continue to invest in it, and there is a better script in preparation Start it up, or simply write two movies when attracting layman investment, so that even if one hits the blockbuster, the other will be released in no time, want to share dividends? Take your time.
Hollywood Jews want to scam investors out of their money in countless ways.
That's why Tommy told Stephen, don't waste the quota to let yourself go to accompany him to open his eyes, but bring a professional investment manager, and don't blindly make promises after a few glasses of wine.
Seeing Tommy's serious expression, Stephen nodded: "If you don't go, then I can only call my investment manager, let's go, change the subject, take me around your dormitory, poor man, get some real money Alcohol comes out, I know you must have stock."
Hearing that the other party was willing to listen to his opinion, Tommy also heaved a sigh of relief, and the two walked side by side towards Hope's apartment in the dark.
I originally wrote a chapter in the middle of the night last night, but my son stayed up after one o'clock. This is the first time he slept in the same bed with me, and he played very excitedly. By three o'clock, he had written more than a thousand words. I couldn't hold back and went to sleep.
Then this chapter is almost 5,000 words, including the chapter last night, so it will not be divided into two chapters...
Also, the editor said that this book will be on the shelves on the 1st of next month. After my daughter-in-law had a high fever, my son also started to have a high fever this afternoon. My parents, parents-in-law and the four of us, the whole family was finally spared, and all of them got positive... Readers, take precautions, whether you can get positive or not, it is still different from the flu It's quite big, anyway, I still feel weak and tired.
