Back to 1995

Little Alanbell, who was thrown up by Song Yang and caught again, let out a "giggle" laugh. Seeing this, Dana reminded Song Yang.

"Song!"

From Gallo, Song Yang, Logan, Miria to the next generation of the Bruno family, Andre and Alan Bell, are all taken care of by Daana. One can imagine Daana's status in the Bruno family. On the other hand, Song Yang also had to listen to Daana.

Daana looked at the little Alan Bell in Song Yang's arms. At this time, Jenny and Haili were still in Los Angeles. Daana didn't have to worry so much, and said to Song Yang with some complaints, "Song, you should take little Annie with you. When she came back, she was a member of the Bruno family, but she was taken to Mexico!"

Daana already knew about Annie's existence from Greck. What made Daana dissatisfied was that Song Yang didn't bring little Annie back to the Bruno family.

Song Yang teased little Alanbell in his arms, raised his head and said to Daana, "Little Annie will come back, Aunt Daana, you will see her, and she will bear the Bruno family name!"

Not only Dana, but Song Huiqiong and others in Yangcheng also want Song Yang to take little Alanbell, Annie and others back.

Song Yang watched little Alan Bell playing with those beads made of gems, diamonds, and gold sculptures, etc. As the destined head of the next generation of the Bruno family, little Alan Bell was born with a golden spoon in his mouth Well, the Bruno family, Alcatel Group, ICQ and other companies are all waiting for him to grow up. As long as he becomes an adult, he will be able to gain the power, worth, and status he deserves.

Regardless of whether Alan Bell is willing or not, for him, if he wants to wear the crown, he must bear the weight. Whether he likes it or not, those companies will include his name in the list of board members.

On the contrary, Anne and Alan Bell's new younger brother, younger sister, etc. may not get most of the property distribution of the Bruno family and the North American Global Investment Foundation, but they can live according to their wishes , not to mention reckless behavior, but even if he is a libertine, he will not be accused or anything, but will be regarded as normal by the outside world. Little Alan Bell is different, even if Song Yang will not put him under so much pressure, the outside world It will also put pressure on him.

Pinching the little Alan Bell's face, Song Yang sighed softly, "Everything you gain is bound to be lost. Everything in the world has a price, and when you get it, you must pay a corresponding price.

Little Alan Bell ran unsteadily on the grass of the San Jose Manor. The pet dog given by Evan Spiegel barked around the little Alan Bell. Song Yang followed behind the little Alan Bell. When Bell was about to fall, he pulled him up.

On the rugby field in San Jose Manor, Amber is training under the guidance of a professional rugby trainer. Amber, who just entered middle school this year, has already developed a strong body. Amber, who is in the school rugby team, is already the core of the team, leading the school. The team has won many games, and they are already well-known in San Francisco campus football.

Seeing little Alan Bell, Amber stopped training and hugged little Alan Bell.

"I heard from Gallo, Amber, you are in school, but you are very popular with girls!"

Song Yang looked at Amber and joked with a smile. Amber is a famous figure in their school. When his school football team played, Song Yang, Gallo, Greck, and Dana also went to see it a few times. , On the playing field, many girls shouted Amber's name.

Amber's surname is not Bruno, but the Bruno family regards him as one of their own. In addition, he is Song Yang's godson and the main force of the school's football. It is not surprising that he is popular in that noble middle school. After all, even if America is in an aristocratic school, the people there are different according to their families and abilities, and their situations in the school are also different.

With Amber's conditions, in that noble school, there is no doubt that the top group of people is surrounded by countless people.

Hearing Song Yang's words, Amber's face became a little hot, and the trainer next to him said at this time, "Mr. Bruno, Amber is a genius. With Amber's conditions, if he wants to enter the professional football team, he will definitely be selected. ..."

This rugby trainer is not the rugby trainer of Amber's school, but Gallo specially hired it for Amber. After all, this person who has worked as a trainer for many rugby stars costs more than a year. Millions of dollars, the school football team will not bear the cost.

As a professional trainer, it must be reliable for him to say this. If someone, especially a rugby player born in a slum, heard this, he would probably be overjoyed. Once he can enter a professional rugby team, that means Watching him, and even the whole family, will change their destiny and become a millionaire or multi-millionaire family.

But Song Yang just laughed when he heard the trainer's words, and looked at Amber who was a little silent, "This matter is decided by Amber, he will choose later!"

The rugby trainer was stunned for a moment, and then he immediately realized that other people were greedy for the annual salary of millions or tens of millions to enter the professional rugby team, but this did not include the Bruno family. It is not difficult to buy a football team with the value of the Bruno family in front of the world as a doorman.

Amber's expression moved, but he was still taciturn and didn't say anything. Song Yang looked at Amber's figure and patted him on the shoulder.

Amber seems a little taciturn, but as Jax's son, he must have his own opinions, and he is definitely not the kind of person who follows others.

Coming out of the rugby field, Song Yang hugged little Alan Bell who was tired from running, and got into a golf cart. When passing by the manor horse farm, the horse trainer was walking the horse named Baloo. Following Miriam, they won the equestrian award together, but recently Miriam is reading at night, not interested in horseback riding and other sports.

This year, Milia wants to study in a university in another state, and she needs to get her grades above the average level, so that Dana and Greg are willing to let her go. For the past year or so, Milia has been studying hard. , growing up so big, it was the first time that girl Miria worked so hard.

After coming back from Los Angeles and being busy with Alcatel Mobile, Uber and other companies, Song Yang rarely had a few days to rest. After spending a few days with little Alan Bell, Wen Xun rushed over and voted for Song Yang. There are a lot of people.

Several cars slowly drove into the San Jose manor. Irene, the CEO of ICQ and the number one female professional manager in the world, brought ICQ Chief Technology Officer Wesley and several senior executives with her. Came to the manor.

Irene is no stranger to this manor, but when she came to the manor and saw little Alan Bell, Irene's eyes moved, her steps slowed down a little, and then she continued to walk forward.

Although Irene is very satisfied with her current situation, she is not envious of Jenny marrying Song Yang. She is more professional than Jenny, but when she saw little Alan Bell, Irene felt String, still can not help but be touched a bit.

"Director Bruno!"

When Wesley and several other ICQ executives saw Song Yang, they all said in unison, and all of them had smiles on their faces. Obviously, ICQ has been living a very good life during this period of time.

Song Yang glanced at Irene, Wesley, and the ICQ executives behind them. They hadn't seen each other for a while, and there were a few more unfamiliar faces among the ranks of ICQ executives.

From the establishment of ICQ to the listing, and now, the executives of ICQ have changed several times. The original founding team members either retired after realizing the freedom of wealth, or were replaced by professional managers, and there are people like Evan Spiegel Those who set up their own business in that way, among ICQ's senior executives, their original acquaintances are Irene, Wesley and others, but Song Yang knows that this is an inevitable experience for every company.

After Song Yang asked everyone to sit down, he asked someone to make a few cups of coffee for Irene and the others. Song Yang looked at Irene and said, "It seems that there is good news for me today!"

Irene took out a few documents from the briefcase and put them in front of Song Yang. These documents were the ICQ data of this year, users, revenue, profits and other data since the first half of the year. is a record high.

From this ICQ performance, it can be seen that the Internet industry today is indeed recovering. The shadow of the Nasdaq crash has gradually disappeared from the Internet. The hot industries of the Internet and the technology industry are slowly coming. !

Not only ICQ, but all other Internet companies have achieved outstanding performance in the first half of this year. It can be seen from the stock price, including Yahoo, that they have all risen sharply. Of course, this is compared to the Internet crash. The scene at that time is definitely incomparable with the peak period. Just like Yahoo, the market value of 3000 billion US dollars at the peak period is now less than 800 billion US dollars.

However, the market value of ICQ, relying on the original Internet phone Skype and the Starlink project, the market value has returned to the peak, even surpassing the market value at the peak of the year. The highest market value once exceeded 800 billion US dollars, and now it has dropped a lot , but the market value is also maintained at more than 500 billion US dollars, and it is a well-deserved leader in the global Internet industry.

"In the first half of this year, ICQ's revenue exceeded US$231 billion for the first time, and its social, media, game and other businesses increased by more than 3074 million global users. Users outside of America, including North America, Europe, Asia, etc. A size increase of over 125%…”

Irene reported ICQ's performance to Song Yang, which can be described as quite impressive. The scale of Internet users in America has already fallen into a bottleneck, and the growth is not so fast, but the overseas Internet market is in a state of explosion, just like before. In recent years, the local Internet industry in America has been average, and the number of users has grown like crazy.
