Back to 1995

Chapter 533 Fortress
Song Yanggao raised his wine glass and said to Conor and the people present. He said so, but this glass of wine was more like a sacrifice to Ross Peretti Bank. Starting today, this bank has become history.

The atmosphere at the banquet was noisy, and Gallo was full of excitement, drinking with all the guests present, even Greg couldn't help drinking a few more glasses.

For Gallo and Greck, PayPal's acquisition of Ross Peretti Bank means that the strength of the Bruno family has risen to a new level, regardless of whether the bank is a big bank or a small broken workshop!

Banks are a very special existence in America. Companies in other industries may disappear after decades of decline, but if a bank operates properly and does not engage in nonsense, it is really possible. Extended for a hundred years, or even longer.

No one knows how long double-click, ICQ, or even PayPal payment can exist, but PayPal Bank may continue to exist as the foundation of the Bruno family.

One day in the future, when something happens to the Bruno family, the PayPal bank is likely to become the last bastion of the Bruno family to tide them over. That's why Grek rarely drank a lot of alcohol today.

The guests present were all celebrities from San Jose, they gathered around Song Yang and complimented Song Yang with various words.

The celebrities in San Jose at the banquet could hear Song Yang's big moves almost every once in a while. In a few years, Song Yang's worth, just like a snowball, kept rolling up, and now even more It was the acquisition of a bank. For the celebrities in San Jose, the impact was too great.

Many people are now thinking about making money with Song Yang. The growth rate of Song Yang's net worth is a bit exaggerated, far exceeding the old white men in the past. Whether it is relying on the Internet industry, Bringing the social status on paper, it is still rumored to be making troubles in Southeast Asia. Now many people want to invest their money in Song Yang and make a fortune along with it.

"Song, if your North American investment foundation launches a fund, I will be the first to subscribe!"

A middle-aged man spoke to Song Yang. Although there was a joke in the words, the man was actually looking forward to it.

Song Yang recognized this man, and he could be regarded as a celebrity in San Jose. There are several big hotels in San Jose, and nearly one-third of the parking lot in San Jose is in his hands. There is a lot of cash flow in his hands every day. He was carrying out the loan business in a sneaky manner. Of course, he lent to others to collect interest at a higher interest rate than the bank, but his heart was not too dark, and he didn't play usury.

The man said that he wanted to buy a fund launched by the North American Investment Foundation and hand over the dollar knife to Song Yang. He was obviously not joking. He had a lot of cash flow every day. It's a bit unscented...

As soon as this man opened his mouth, other people around Song Yang also opened their mouths one after another, flattering Song Yang, wanting to make a fortune along with him.

"Yes, Song, we believe in you. If you manage the fund, I believe it will be the most profitable foundation in America!"

"Just like the Madoff Foundation and Buffett's Berkshire!"

"I think Song's investment vision surpasses that of Madoff and Buffett. They are too old. Now is the era of the Internet, which belongs to Song!"

All the people around spoke and persuaded Song Yang to let his North American Global Investment Foundation launch a foundation, and they were willing to subscribe for it with all their money.

These people directly compare Song Yang with Nasdaq CEO Madoff and Buffett. The former has also become a membership-based foundation, known for its high interest returns every year. Now it is The foundation with the highest rate of return in America, many people are trying to invest in Madoff's foundation, but they are not accepted.

Not to mention Berkshire, the old man relied on it to become a figure competing with Bill Gates for the richest man.

These two foundations are one of the most famous foundations in America, and they can be said to represent what you can earn.

However, Madoff and Buffett seem to be inferior to Song Yang. After all, there are traces of what they played, but Song Yang played the Internet, which is to get rich overnight. As long as you buy the right one, you will be worthless on the first day, and become a billionaire on the second day. This is the Internet. Compared with the old bus and Madoff, the money comes in much faster!
And Song Yang is a master of this set of gameplay. From double-clicking to Hotmail, to ICQ, Xueleshan, and PayPal, Song Yang rarely misses.

In addition to those that Song Yang directly took out, he also invested in Fortinet, ebay, Amazon and other companies. No one knows what else Song Yang will launch, but in this frenzy period of the Internet, even that What the hell, as long as it is launched by Song Yang, people will flock to it and buy it at a high price.

These people at today's banquet also want to make some money and let Song Yang invest for them. If you are lucky, they may be able to double it overnight...

Hearing that this group of people compared themselves with Madoff and Buffett, Song Yang looked a little weird, and Buffett was fine, but Song Yang didn't want to get involved with a character like Madoff, so as long as he did, I guess If you can't run away, Song Yang doesn't want to take the blame for Madoff and his son.

Others, such as Buffett, Carl Icahn and even Soros, are willing to launch foundations and come to find investors because they rely on the dollars invested by these people to do things and charge some management fees by the way.

But Song Yang doesn't need to play this game. If he wants to cut it, he cuts the leeks on Wall Street. How much money are these little leeks, and how much can they earn with that little commission!

"It's just good luck. As I said, a pig can be blown up even if it stands on the wind. Now it's just the age of the Internet. No matter who invests, it will be rewarded!"

Song Yang took a sip of his drink, and rejected the proposal of the group in front of him. Hearing Song Yang's words, the man just now, and many others, all showed disappointed expressions, but they dared not be dissatisfied with Song Yang.

As for what Song Yang said, just find an Internet company to invest in. It’s not that the people present have tried it, and the result is that there are no pants left. Knife, I lost money in a few months, and then turned around and blamed their investors for paying less money...

It was because they had suffered a lot that they understood how hard it was to be able to hug Song Yang, an Internet expert like him, but Song Yang obviously had no intention of taking them to play together.

"Song," Conor found time and came to Song Yang, "Tomorrow, I need to return to Houston to deal with Rosspe..., the reorganization of PayPal Bank's board of directors!"

Song Yang nodded, looked at Conor and said, "The North American Global Investment Foundation will hand over part of the business to PayPal!"

As the parent company of Double-Click, ICQ, Alcatel Mobile, America Telecom, etc., the North American Global Investment Foundation transfers a lot of funds every year. Previously, these funds were settled through the Comerica Bank. Now there is PayPal Bank, not to mention handing over all the businesses involving funds to PayPal Bank, but more or less have to give part of the past. After all, PayPal Bank is now the son...

"Of course no problem, PayPal Bank will take care of this!"

Conor was shocked, and said to Song Yang, this time Ross Peretti Bank, why sell yourself to PayPal is not going to make life difficult.

With these orders now, PayPal Bank doesn't have to worry about life being difficult. Now that they have sold themselves, Adrian will definitely not embarrass PayPal Bank again.

"Conor, I hope that the list of PayPal Bank's board of directors can be provided by the North American Global Investment Foundation!"

Song Yang seemed to inadvertently mentioned something to Conor. Logically speaking, PayPal paid for the acquisition of Ross Peretti Bank, but it did not get all the shares. After the reorganization of the board of directors, one half should be half, PayPal One more board position, but Song Yang obviously didn't want to follow the rules, but wanted to completely control the entire PayPal Bank board of directors.

Conor hesitated for a moment. This is not in compliance with the rules. It is equivalent to kicking out the board of directors of Ross Peretti Bank. From now on, PayPal Bank will be a dish in Song Yang's hands, and he can do whatever he wants cut.

Once the board of directors and management of PayPal Bank are all people from Song Yang, at that time, there will be plenty of means to increase the equity of PayPal Bank from 51% to more, and even if the heart is black, it will be hollowed out. No no!

Song Yang watched Conor's expression, and after a few tens of seconds, a smile appeared on Conor's face, "Of course, the list of PayPal's board of directors should have been provided by the North American Global Investment Foundation, and no one can object!"

Song Yang patted Conor on the shoulder, "Start the PayPal payment and PayPal banking business as soon as possible. I think that at the end of the year, Conor, you will be able to get a dividend that matches your status."

After Conor left, Song Yang came to Greck. Greck, who drank a lot of wine, was a little drunk. When he saw Song Yang, he immediately said, "If old Bruno hears the news, he must I want you to open PayPal Bank to the Italian peninsula!"

After Song Yang heard this, he couldn't help smiling. The old Bruno who came to America hadn't forgotten about the blood relatives in the Italian peninsula. Opening the PayPal bank definitely represented the identity of the old Bruno.

"Uncle Greck," Song Yang said to Greck, "The Bruno Family Foundation donated a sum of money to Mrs. Adrian's charitable foundation and his campaign office!"
