Chapter 490 Dead pigs are not afraid of boiling water
Now is the Internet industry, when it is at its hottest, each of the major Internet companies raises their salary higher than the other to show their strength. This is also the reason why countless people have rushed into the Internet in recent years.

Pellet Greene entered the ICQ office building and looked at the scene in front of him. The current scale of ICQ is not too large, but the treatment and benefits provided are not lower than those of Wall Street companies. This is also the norm in the entire Silicon Valley. .

An assistant took him to the floor where PayPal was located, and when he entered here, what Pellet Greene saw was a busy figure.

Compared with ICQ, PayPal is busy now, with phone calls one after another, and countless technicians are busy in front of the computer.

After a few glances, Pellet Greene was brought into the office. After entering, he saw Song Yang at a glance. Even though he didn't have much contact with Song Yang, Pellet Greene still recognized him at a glance. After Song Yang, there is another person in the office.

"Director Bruno, President Aaron Swartz!"

Pellet Greene spoke first, and spoke to Song Yang and Aaron Swartz in the office.

"Manager Greene, welcome to San Jose!"

Song Yang reached out to shake hands with Pellet Greene and said, "Say hello to President Paulson for me."

For some reason, hearing Song Yang's words, Pellet Greene always had a feeling that there was a special meaning in Song Yang's words, especially Song Yang's expression when he mentioned Paulson. He always felt that Song Yang seemed to be Know something.

"President Paulson, you are also welcome to come to New York. There are not only Deutsche Bank on Wall Street, but also Goldman Sachs and other institutions."

Pellet Greene replied to Song Yang calmly, trying to see something from Song Yang's face, but he couldn't see anything.

"I would also like to thank President Greene for his support to America Telecom last year!"

Song Yang asked someone to deliver a cup of coffee to Pellet Greene. Song Yang had dealt with Pellet Greene several times. negotiated.

When American Telecom acquired CompuServe Telecom and cheated AOL, Goldman Sachs also participated. Pellet Greene participated on behalf of Goldman Sachs, and the two parties can be regarded as "old acquaintances".

"Song, this place is beyond my expectation, ICQ, America Telecom, Alcatel mobile phone, and of course PayPal." When he said this, Pellet Greene glanced in the direction of Aaron Swartz, " Wall Street is spreading rumors about your vision, and I don’t know what products you will launch to give Wall Street a "surprise"!"

Song Yang laughed, "I hope it's a surprise, not a shock!"

Song Yang and Pellet Greene tried a few words with each other, but Pellet Greene didn't mention the purpose of this visit, and Song Yang pretended not to know, just talking about other things.

Pellet Greene took a sip of coffee and finally stopped talking, "Song, I'm here on behalf of President Paulson this time, and I hope to handle the PayPal matter well. I don't want to start a war!"

"President Aaron Swartz, what do you think?"

Asked by Pellet Greene, Aaron Swartz shook his head with a "confused" face and said, "I'm sorry, Manager Greene, PayPal is just a new Internet company." "Small" company, I don't know what you mean by that?"

Seeing Song Yang and Song Yang, who sang together and kept refusing to answer his words, Pellet Greene knew that it would not be easy for PayPsl to give in if he wanted to get things done today.

"Goldman Sachs and Wall Street actually welcome the emergence of new technologies and businesses, but the premise of all this is...under the rules of Wall Street!"

"No one can break the rules. Goldman Sachs is no exception. PayPal is the same. Song, you know what I mean. PayPal's problem will be resolved sooner or later. This time it's me, who will come next time, it's not certain, DoubleClick just got out of the lawsuit and I thought, Song, you don't want the same experience to happen to PayPal again!"

Hearing these threatening words, the smile on Song Yang's face also dissipated, and he looked at Pellet Greene and said lightly, "President Greene, is this a "warning" to PayPal? "

Pellet Greene waved his hand and said, "Song, I'm just telling the truth. PayPal's low transaction fees and high-interest deposits really violate the rules and order of Wall Street!"

This is very "tactful" but also very tough. He told Song Yang clearly that PayPal has violated the rules. Using these methods to deal with those small and medium-sized banks, although they have not threatened the major banks on Wall Street, they have already made Wall Street Very dissatisfied.

Song Yang showed regret, and glanced at Aaron Swartz, remembering what he discussed with Song Yang today, Aaron Swartz said bravely, "Manager Greene, PayPal didn't see those Rules, don't know who made those rules, sorry, PayPal is hard to follow!"

Dead pigs are not afraid of boiling water. Anyway, PayPal is clinging to one. I haven’t seen any federal law that stipulates that the transfer fee cannot be reduced. If there is no regulation, then PayPal can play as it wants.

Pellet Greene took a deep breath, feeling his eyelids twitching with anger. In the past, only Goldman Sachs played hooliganism. When will it be the turn of others to play hooligans in front of Goldman Sachs?

But today, Pellet Greene really met him. He knows why the Internet in Silicon Valley can develop so fast. With this kind of trickery, talking nonsense, and seeing stitches, those gangs have been tamed. Traditional companies that consciously abide by the rules are really no match for these rogue Internet companies.

Hooligans are not scary, but hooligans are educated. This is the current situation in Silicon Valley, in America and even in the world, where the smartest and most educated people gather here, thinking of ways to play hooligans, and not tossing their opponents to death. It's all difficult!
"Song, I'm here today on behalf of President Paulson and Goldman Sachs. I want to solve the troubles of PayPal and the banking industry. I don't want to have a misunderstanding with Song. Otherwise, this time, I won't be here. Well, maybe President Paulson will come here in person!"

Pellet Greene doesn't want to talk nonsense anymore. If he continues with the routine, he is afraid that he will be limped. When does Wall Street make sense? The will of Wall Street.

He doesn't want to have a conflict with Song Yang, but if necessary, Pellet Greene doesn't mind, and uses some means to tell Song Yang the consequences of angering Wall Street!
But after hearing what Pellet Greene said, Song Yang showed a careless expression on his face, "Well, then I welcome President Paulson to come, if he can come tomorrow!"

Pellet Greene's heart beat violently several times. He was sure that Song Yang must have known something.
