Back to 1995

Chapter 84
Marcus looked up at Song Yang in front of him, and he had already raised Song Yang's level to the highest level in his heart. No, looking at Song Yang's age, Marcus felt that this might be the future of his cooperation for so many years. Perhaps there is no one with the highest social status!

Marcus didn't know how much trouble these financial documents would cause if they got out, especially the project of American Telecom. The project is really amazing.

"Song," Marcus put down those financial documents, "Honestly speaking, these are beyond my expectation. It will take a little time to clarify these financial documents. Maybe you should come to me earlier to avoid a lot of trouble!"

Marcus said to Song Yang, feeling that Song Yang has some expenses, which are too worthless. Needless to say, sports cars and villas, but double-click companies, American Telecom, etc., if Marcus operates, it can not only avoid tax , You can also get some financial subsidies from Texas and other places through operations.

"So, I'm here to find Marcus today!"

Song Yang said to Marcus, "I hope you can help me deal with these financial problems, not only these, but you may also be needed as a consultant for the financial problems of Double Click, America Telecom, Hotmail, ICQ and other companies in the future! "

Marcus's calm heart couldn't help shaking at this time. As a private financial consultant, he can earn hundreds of thousands of dollars a year at most, but it is different when he is a company's financial consultant. The larger the financial scale he handles, The salary you get is higher.

Like America Telecom's financial consultant, if America Telecom can sell to Wall Street after the completion of the Chicago-New York line next year, it will be a multi-billion dollar financial management. If Marcus handles it, the salary will be at least Start with a million dollars!

"Song, I will take care of these finances!" Marcus Bird expressed his attitude and was willing to take over the identity of Song Yang's personal accounting and financial consultant.

Hearing that Marcus was willing to take over, Song Yang negotiated his contract with Marcus. Marcus didn't ask for a high price. On the contrary, the asking price was a bit "low".

Marcus requested that the annual financial consultant fee, that is, the cost of helping Song Yang declare taxes, deal with financial problems, and avoid taxes, only costs 24 U.S. dollars. Now it seems that the price is not low, but compared to other big accountants, and In terms of what Song Yang might have in the future, this is really not too high.

But Marcus also has other requirements, that is, to deal with Song Yang's investment and other issues, he needs additional costs, such as projects such as American Telecom, or acquisitions, investments, etc., he needs additional costs.

Song Yang thought for a while, then reached out to Marcus, agreeing to his request.

Not to mention anything else, Song Yang is looking for a financial backer to take over the Hotmail mailbox this year, and it will involve a large amount of capital transactions, which needs to be handled by Marcus.

In addition, next year's American Telecom will need Marcus to deal with Wall Street. Even if there is a professional accounting firm, it needs to be watched by one of its own people, otherwise if it encounters a scam like Andersen , it's too late to cry...

Marcus became Song Yang's private accountant. If there is no accident, Song Yang's finances will be in the hands of Marcus for many years to come. In a certain sense, he may know Song Yang better than the Bruno family. How much is Yang worth?

"Are you also managing the finances of the San Francisco Giants baseball team?" Song Yang asked Marcus when he signed the agreement.

It would be a bit taboo for someone else to ask about another employer of Marcus, but in the future, he will be tied to Song Yang, and even at special times, he will have to take some blame for Song Yang. So Marcus, just chuckled at that.

Marcus, who has done his homework, knows that the inspirational story that Song Yang has advertised, the genius baseball player who accidentally fell, entered the Internet industry and climbed up again. Marcus does not know if this thing is true or not, but Song Yang is from a baseball team. it is true.

Marcus didn't find it strange that Song Yang asked about the San Francisco Giants baseball team, "If, Song, you want to become a minority shareholder of the Giants, I can help with the operation!"

Many sports-loving rich men in America will invest in some teams. As a small owner, they often go to the stadium to watch games and get in close contact with the team stars, and the team also likes to use those celebrities to increase their popularity.

As for the more expensive ones, like Microsoft's Paul Allen, he bought the NBA team Trail Blazers and the football team Seahawks two teams to act as large toys. Marcus also thought Song Yang was trying to mess with him. A giant team gets minority shareholders or something.

"NO", Song Yang looked at Marcus and said, saying what he said to Gallo earlier, "If I want to enter the baseball club, I will buy the New York Yankees!"

Marcus shook his head with a smile, "Song, if the San Francisco fans hear this, I'm afraid they won't be so happy!"

Regarding the fact that Song Yang wanted to buy the New York Yankees, Marcus only thought that Song Yang was joking and didn't care too much about it. Let alone whether the Yankees owner George Steinbrenner would sell it or not, he just said that Song Yang was at the moment. Yang's entire net worth is cashed out, and it is estimated that he will not be able to eat the Yankees.

Song Yang just laughed and didn't explain too much, but if there is a chance, then Song Yang will definitely try and win the most proud team in the Big Apple!
"Marcus, I need you to deal with these financial problems as soon as possible, and then report to the federal taxation side. I don't want to be targeted by the IRS!"

Song Yang didn't want to be messed with by those mad dogs from the IRS. Even the slightest loophole could make a fuss about it.

"In addition, next, I need you to deal with some financial issues. You need to keep an eye on America Telecom's finances. Hotmail may also undergo some investment this year, or equity changes such as acquisitions!"

Hearing this, Marcus' eyes froze. Song Yang was revealing some news to him so that Marcus could prepare early.

Even if you are not an Internet professional, these days, the media in San Francisco and Silicon Valley, reporting the news of Hotmail mailboxes, is simply overwhelming.

Through these reports, Marcus can also think about the potential of Hotmail mailboxes, but now he heard that Song Yang has the idea of ​​selling Hotmail mailboxes. If this comes true, Marcus can predict that this will probably be a shocking deal. .

But after being slightly surprised, Marcus quickly regained his composure, "Don't worry Song, I won't have any problems here!"

Marcus is really dedicated. After signing the agreement with Song Yang, he immediately started to deal with those finances, and used various methods to avoid taxes for Song Yang as much as possible. The role of the Bruno Foundation in the hands of Marcus can simply be recognized Play with flowers.

After coming out of ICQ's San Jose office building, Song Yang didn't rush to San Jose University to report, but drove to Feita Company.

ICQ's office building is not far from Feita Company, only half an hour's drive away, and Song Yang rushed to Feita Company's office.

After entering Fortinet, I feel different from other places immediately, because there are almost all Asian faces here, and the voices in the office are all in Chinese. This is almost the first all-Chinese company in Silicon Valley!
Fortinet's office is not large in scale, and it is divided into two parts, a software development office and a hardware department. What Fortinet needs to do is to integrate software, hardware and the Internet, which is unprecedented in the network security industry. Naturally, it needs to develop hardware products.

Seeing Song Yang who came in, a young man in his 20s with glasses, looking at Song Yang, felt vaguely familiar, and asked Song Yang suspiciously, "May I ask who you are?"

Song Yang said in Chinese, "I'm looking for Xie Qing!"

As soon as Song Yang's accent was heard, the office suddenly became noisy again. Sitting in the office, a tall, dark-skinned man shouted into the small office inside with a Sichuan accent, "Old Xie, someone is looking for you!" !"

"This way please." The young man gave Song Yang an apologetic smile, and led Song Yang to Xie Qing's office.

He glanced at Song Yang, and when he was about to enter Xie Qing's office, the young man said distressedly, "I feel that you seem familiar, as if I've seen it somewhere before."

"Song Yang," Song Yang smiled kindly at the young man, "Maybe you have seen another name reported in the media, Bruno Song!"

After finishing speaking, Song Yang nodded to him, and then entered Xie Qing's office, leaving only the dumbfounded young man, and the whole office was silent. The person who called Xie Qing just now also had a dumb look on his face.

Double-click the founder of the company, the genius of the Internet, and now the founder of Hotmail, the founder of the concept of Internet viral marketing, and of course, the largest investor of Fortinet, now appears in their before!

Regardless of Song Yang's influence in the Chinese American community, he definitely has unparalleled influence among yellow-skinned people working in Silicon Valley and the Internet.

Maybe other people in Silicon Valley want to be the next Bill Gates, or the next Mark Anderson, but for the yellow-skinned people who work here, they definitely want to be the second Song Yang, not other people.

Xie Qing, who was busy in the office, was taken aback when he saw Song Yang coming in, and then hurriedly stood up, "Boss Song, why didn't you tell me in advance when you came."

Looking at the messy office, Xie Qing showed embarrassment, "I made you laugh!"

Song Yang waved his hand, found a chair from the piled up documents, and sat down casually, "That's how you came here, you have to go to Yahoo's previous office, and of course the small office of Double-click when the company was first established." After seeing it in the garage, you know that everyone is actually the same!"
