MTL - Back To 1995-Chapter 19 Persona (asking for a monthly ticket)
Chapter 19 Characters (seeking a monthly pass)
Staying in the office of the big boss of the law firm, Greck, who was holding a wine glass, was surprised when he heard Josiah's words. He didn't expect that Josiah would mention Double Click Advertising.
The legal counsel of the double-click advertising company was indeed signed under the name of Gleek, but Josiah suddenly mentioned it, which still made Gleek a little puzzled.
Seeing Glake nodding blankly, Josiah was overjoyed. After having a cup of tea with Greg, he turned off the sound of the TV, and after searching for a few channels, he finally stopped at the local TV station in downtown Houston. .
A news anchor in downtown Houston is broadcasting the news, "California latest news, technology company Netscape announced that it has reached a strategic cooperation with Double Click Company.
Double-click Advertising is a start-up company in Houston. According to our source, this company was established by a genius in Houston, Bruno Song. There is an investment company in Silicon Valley. It has estimated a valuation of more than three million dollars for Double-click Advertising. The reporter will report more in-depth coverage of DoubleClick advertising company…”
Looking at the report on the TV, Greg also opened his mouth wide, and his heart was full of astonishment, only one thought came to mind, that dilapidated garage next to Route 7 is now worth three million dollars?
"Grek, I know you won't let me down, this is a company that cooperates with Netscape..."
Josiah said excitedly to Greg, although he knew that he wanted to win Netscape, the darling of Wall Street, the legal business of a company with a valuation of over one billion dollars, there was no chance at all, but he was able to get the double-click company backed by Netscape. Obtaining legal affairs is definitely a surprise for Josiah's small law firm.
Greek doesn't remember how he got home. When he woke up the next day, he only heard Daana complaining to him. He had never seen him drunk like this for so many years.
Grek, whose brain was aching after drinking, was thinking about what happened yesterday. After get off work, he was dragged by Josiah and went to one of the best bars in Houston.
Thinking of this, Gleek couldn't help but glanced at Daana, and seeing Daanna just complained that he was drunk, Gleek breathed a sigh of relief, knowing that he didn't make a principled mistake last night.
Although there are some fragments, Gleek still remembers that Josiah made a lot of promises to Gleick at the bar yesterday, as the director of the law firm, the general manager and even as a partner!
These things that Gleek never dared to think about in the past, Josiah said it all, of course Gleick knew what it was for.
"Where's Song?" Rubbing his forehead, Greg remembered Song Yang and hurriedly asked Da Anna.
Daana saw Greck with a worried face, wondering what kind of madness he was making, "Song didn't come back at all last night!"
As he was talking, the phone rang again at Greck's house, and Daana couldn't help but say, "What the **** happened today, all the reporters and media are here to find Song!"
Looking at Da Anna's expression, Greg can think of how many people who are pervasive in the media and reporters have called Song Yang.
"I need to go to Song to deal with this matter!" After eating a few bites of bread, Greg hurried out. He wanted to find Song Yang to deal with the media.
Not only was Greg's house constantly on the phone, because Song Yang could not be reached, some local reporters in Houston rushed directly to Devers School to interview.
Devers, who is just an ordinary school in Houston, is the first time I have seen so many media and reporters squatting at the school gate for interviews.
Principal Devers, who received the news, rushed to the school and was interviewed by reporters. The old principal, who was in his fifties, said to the camera, "I believe that Bruno Song can do all this, he is Devers. The best student, he will be the best member of our alumni association at Devers..."
Principal Devers, who did not have much impression of Song Yang at all, when facing the camera, he praised Song Yang and Devers School without any sense of disobedience, and claimed that Song Yang was a real genius with excellent academic performance. , is an A all year round, and is the main force of the school baseball team...
In the Devers School, rumors about Song Yang and Double Click Company are also going crazy. If you didn't know it before, the presence of the reporter today will make everyone completely believe it.
Ibera walked into the dance training room and saw many girls around Jenny. Obviously, these girls regarded Jenny as Song Yang's girlfriend, a new millionaire's girlfriend.
This is America, a place where wealth and worth are divided into identity, status, power, and a young millionaire with visible potential, enough to attract a group of people!
Seeing this scene, Ibera hated Jenny even more. She thought that all of this should belong to her originally. As the girlfriend of a new millionaire, the compliments and flattery of the people around her should have been It belongs to her, but now it has been stolen by Jenny.
Devers baseball team training ground, just sent away another wave of school management, and reporters took pictures, all members of the school baseball team felt dizzy at the moment.
Song Yang, who quit the baseball team, established a company, and in the blink of an eye, he was worth more than a million dollars. Although it was only a theoretical worth, it was still too shocking for the people on the baseball team, and it completely subverted them. cognition.
The baseball team had a few friends who had a good relationship with Song Yang before. At this time, they were naturally happy. They had a millionaire friend, and their future might change.
Those who were estranged from Song Yang felt a little regretful that they didn't get in touch earlier, but the most people on the baseball team focused their attention on Stanton, who was tall and looked like a black bear.
At this moment, Stanton's face was pale and his face was full of grief. He couldn't imagine what the next day would be. Offending a millionaire, he couldn't imagine what would happen.
When Greg came to the garage, Song Yang, who had been busy all night, finally breathed a sigh of relief.
Insufficient manpower, to connect with Netscape and Yahoo, and to contact advertisers such as the Telephone and Telegraph Group to report data, and to deal with technical problems encountered, Song Yang has to deal with it. Song Yang basically spends a night. busy.
"We need to find people as soon as possible, including technicians, sales, customer service, and change the office location!"
When Greg came in, he heard Song Yang say to Gallo, it was still the garage, but in Greg's eyes, it was completely different from before.
"If you need money, your account will be empty. If you didn't turn down another million dollars from a venture capital firm, we would have money now!" Gallo complained to Song Yang.
Last night until the morning, the calls to invest basically never stopped, and the investment amount has soared, from the previous hundreds of thousands to one million in the morning, but Song Yang rejected them all.
"The market value estimated by Wall Street for Double Click Advertising is only 3 million. The investment of 1 million is already quite good!" Gallo didn't understand, Song Yang never accepted investment.
"It's five million!" Hailey, who bought a Chinese breakfast for delivery, said, holding up the newspaper she bought on the way.
In the past, Hai Li had no interest in these technology and other things, but now it is different. Seeing that the Double-click company established by Song Yang is becoming more and more valuable, Song Yang's net worth is also rising, and Hai Li feels that she is getting closer and closer to Hollywood. As it got closer, Song Yang said that he would help her go to Hollywood, so Hai Li was naturally very active.
Gallo took a look at the newspaper and couldn't help but scolded him. After just one night, Silicon Valley and Wall Street even increased the valuation of DoubleClick advertising company. Luo saw the madness of the Internet industry, which was no different from stealing money.
"I'll take care of the office, and the manpower must be recruited as soon as possible. For the funds, you can go to the bank to borrow a loan!"
As soon as Greg came in, he arranged it directly. As a lawyer for so many years, Greg has naturally rich experience.
As soon as Song Yang saw Gleick, his heart dropped. It was the first time since Song Yang had established a company. Regarding technology, Song Yang had the right to speak for himself. He could manage operations, handle funds, and recruit personnel. When it comes to affairs, it will be inferior. With Greck's help, Song Yang can feel relieved.
Greck joined in, and the small garage that was busy at first suddenly became stable. Gleick made a few calls, Gallo was sent out to check the office, and Hailey went to contact the headhunting company.
"There are reporters and media who want to interview you. I think you need to be interviewed. You can contact Ann Houston's local TV station to do an interview with you!"
Greck said to Song Yang that there are now reporters from New York, Silicon Valley and other places in Houston who are very interested in Song Yang, and want to interview Song Yang and dig out some strong information.
And the local media and reporters in Houston should take the most care of Song Yang. Song Yang was born in Houston, and the local media in Houston will definitely not deliberately make things difficult for this "genius", but the media in New York, Los Angeles and other places may not necessarily.
"reporter?"
Song Yang pondered for a while, nodded and agreed, double-clicking that the company will accept investment sooner or later, and increasing its popularity now is very beneficial for the next investment.
Although Song Yang does not have the idea of creating a "genius" character like Microsoft and Netscape, in this era of "creating gods" in the Internet industry, it is of great benefit to increase some popularity, just like Microsoft originally packaged Bill Gates as a genius. People design, Netscape created Anderson's "Silicon Valley hero" identity, has attracted a large wave of investment, in addition to a large number of technical talents defected.
Song Yang didn't expect to attract thousands of followers like these two, but if he could attract some technical geniuses to DoubleClick advertising company, then it would not be a waste for him to accept this interview.
