Chapter 50 Blowing Balloons

Hearing Song Yang's words, Eric shook his head and said, "I want the RICK club to make changes. You know my mother donated money to the church, but they were all rejected!"

Speaking of this, Eric was obviously a little angry and helpless. He took out a beautiful knife but was rejected.

Song Yang would not be fooled by Eric's words so easily. If he wants to donate, there are plenty of opportunities in private.

But to be aboveboard, to donate under the title of the RICK club, unless the person who collects the money does not want to mix in America, otherwise he dare not accept it at all.

Don't look at Hollywood movies, it seems to be very open to package America, but in America, a country where Puritans are the mainstream, it is still necessary to have a face, even if it is superficial.

Seeing that Song Yang didn't seem to believe what he said, Eric said, "I guarantee that nothing out of the ordinary has happened in the RICK club, and Nasdaq can accept RICK's listing application, which has been proven! "

"I want RICK to make a transformation, not just to do these night shows, I hope to let RICK enter other industries, and hope that RICK can continue to exist."

Of course, there are some truths and some falsehoods in these words. Eric really wants to make some changes, except because of the poor image of this industry. There are big people, even people who call him a pimp in private.

Another point is that Eric is also in trouble. The night club is a very special existence, and it has received a lot of public opinion and controversy. No matter how bad the federal government is, it still wants Bilian on the surface. It is impossible to support the RICK club openly. Eric couldn't get a loan from the bank at all.

All of these made Eric a bit anxious, and there is no way to go public. RICK wants to maintain his current position in the industry, or really transform into other industries, he must have money. In this industry, Eric Ke is already considered a boss, and if he wants to go further, it is not a question of opening more nightclubs.

"Song, RICK really wants to transform, and wants to cooperate with Song and technology companies like Double Click!"

Eric said it to Song Yang, to get to where he is today, Eric naturally has vision, he naturally knows what the hottest industry is right now, and in Houston, the most famous Internet is undoubtedly Just double-click the company.

Song Yang didn't expect that Eric wanted to cooperate with Double-Click Company. For Eric, Song Yang didn't want to provoke Eric, so he could only vaguely say, "Maybe, if there is a chance, he will definitely cooperate with RICK Company!"

Eric was not surprised by this set of rhetoric. On the contrary, if Song Yang agreed, Eric would wonder if Song Yang was planning to trick him.

"This is America, anything can happen, everyone's own value, keep my business card, maybe Song you need it sometime!"

Eric looked at Song Yang and said meaningfully. After speaking, he took out another card inlaid with some small diamonds, which seemed to be very luxuriously made.

"This is RICK's club diamond card. As long as there are RICK's clubs in America, it can be used. In addition to getting the best service, people who hold it can also get the full support of RICK's clubs around the world. Including temporary safe haven, there are no more than 200 people in America who have received this card, and the most recent one is Marshall II!"

The Marshall family is also a well-known tens of billions of oil giants in Houston, and decades ago, the Marshall family exchanged 15% of the shares with the American chemical giant Koch Industries in Texas. Shidu became the VIP of RICK Club, and Eric had to reveal the great power of RICK Club this "little".

"Thank you!"

Song Yang picked up the diamond card and took a look. In addition to the RICK logo, there was also a sentence engraved on it that showed the style of the RICK club, "I want to ascend to the sky, lift my throne high, and surpass those kings under God."

Putting these words in other places, it may be pretending to be a bi, but it is printed on RICK's diamond card, which can't help but make people's imagination run wild.

After coming down from the roof, Song Yang returned to his seat directly. At this moment, Gallo and his gang were having a heated fight with Nicole and other escorts. Gallo obviously drank a lot.

"It's time to go!" Song Yang went to pull Gallo up.

When he got outside, Gallo came to his senses and said to Song Yang, "I went to see you just now, and the people from the RICK club said you were going to see Eric. Is there anything between you and Eric?"

Gallo couldn't help but feel a little worried. Eric is not a guy like Frante, but a real local snake in Houston.

Song Yang glanced at Gallo, knowing that this guy had drunk a lot, and his brain hadn't been soaked by alcohol, so he threw the RICK club diamond card to him, "It's okay, I just talked about something!"

Gallo hurriedly caught a card, and after seeing what it was, his face showed surprise, "Song, you really gave it to me?!"

Gallo had heard about RICK's club diamond card, and he heard that the people who got it were basically rich or powerful. Most people want to get it, and they need RICK's review before they can do it.

The double-click company has started to enter the right track. After recruiting [-] people, the size of the double-click company has more than doubled, and Ryan is still preparing for the New York branch. The scale of the double-click company will continue to expand.

Although Song Yang is still busy here, it is much better now than the days of getting up early and staying up until midnight in the garage.

After double-clicking the office building where the company is located, Song Yang leased another floor as the office building for the new project.

"The main problem right now is the lack of manpower!"

As the person in charge of two new projects in his hands, Wesley is now the first and the second is big. Compared with Silicon Valley, there are still too few Internet talents in Houston, let alone technical experts.

Song Yang looked at the new office floor that had just been built. There were only a few people, and Song Yang couldn't help sighing. At this time, let alone Houston, Internet talents all over the world are basically "pilgrimage" to Silicon Valley. Hugh A place like a village is not very attractive to technical experts.

"This time when I go to Silicon Valley, I will choose a headquarters in Silicon Valley for the ICQ project of instant messaging. When the email project is completed, the ICQ project will move to Silicon Valley!"

Song Yang gritted his teeth and said, originally Song Yang didn't want to enclose the land now, but now Song Yang can't afford the money to build a headquarters, but obviously not moving to Silicon Valley has already begun to affect the development of ICQ and other projects.

The price of land in Silicon Valley is not cheap anymore, but compared to later generations, it must be much cheaper. If you don’t enclose a few pieces of land at this time, you may have to spend a lot of money to buy land in the future.

Hearing that he could move to Silicon Valley, Wesley couldn't help showing joy on his face. In this era, whoever is a technical person doesn't want to make a pilgrimage to Silicon Valley. It is regarded as a "sacred place", and of course there are countless rumors of getting rich overnight.

After dealing with the matter in Houston, Song Yang got up together with Greke, Irene and others, and flew towards San Francisco.

Unlike the last time when he came here in a hurry, Song Yang felt differently when he came to San Francisco again.

After arriving in San Francisco, Song Yang naturally wanted to visit some old friends, and he went to the "Connection" magazine.

Still the same as before, even though she has become a full-time employee, Kayla was the first to arrive at the door of the Wired magazine office.

As soon as she arrived at the door, Kayla saw a familiar figure standing at the door of the magazine. Kayla thought that she must be dazzled. The person she had met once but was impressed with should be living as a multi-millionaire in Houston at the moment. How could life come here so early in the morning.

But when he got closer and saw that face with a warm smile, just like the first time he saw it, leaning against the glass door casually, Keira couldn't help covering her mouth.

"Kayla, long time no see!" Song Yang said to Kaila, holding up the coffee in his hand, "I don't know which flavor you like, so I brought it here for you!"

Kaila opened the door of the magazine, and still said to Song Yang in disbelief, "Song, I didn't expect that you still remember me..."

"I said I would never forget, thank you for everything you did last time!" Song Yang took out a jewelry box that had been prepared a long time ago and put it in Kaila's hands.

Seeing the Tiffany logo on the jewelry box, Kayla knew it was worth a lot, and she might not be able to buy it for more than half a year with her salary, "Song, I can't want this, that's what I should do..."

Undoubtedly, Song Yang put Tiffany's jewelry box in Keira's pocket, "You deserve it, if it wasn't for you, I might not have seen Kevin Kelly at all, and there would be no double-click today." Company, I should award you a one-ton medal!"

Kaila was amused by Song Yang's words, and felt that what happened today was still like a dream.

Not only Keira, but also Kevin Kelly, who had almost grown his beard, entered the office and was surprised when he saw Song Yangde.

"Millionaires are coming to Wired Magazine!" Kevin Kelly hugged Song Yang and said with a bit of teasing.

He has a different feeling towards Song Yang than other people. Song Yang is almost seen by him. Double-click company can also be said to be blown up step by step by "Wired" magazine...

　Seeing here, it’s okay to take a bubble, or pick a 1.
