America 1982

"I'm sorry for what that idiot Jason did to you. The punch seems to be fine now, right?" Tommy handed Mark Warren a can of beer and asked with a smile: "Jason Sen said you are as shy as a little girl and like to keep your head down when walking."

Mark took the beer and looked at Tommy's dormitory environment: "Yes, he didn't tell you why I was so shy?"

"No," Tommy said, opening a can of beer himself and taking a sip.

"I'm a local, and I've made that kind of movie, you know? I had sex with about a dozen women who were smuggled from Mexico and El Salvador in front of the camera. I was short of money at the time, but when I didn't lack money, I started to panic. "Mark Warren took a big gulp of beer, and then took a breath of alcohol:

"I have all kinds of scary scenes in my mind every day, such as walking on the street, and suddenly a relative came over and patted me on the shoulder. My dear nephew Mark, your film was really good! Or in After my father's funeral, my mother told me with tears in her eyes the reason for his death: Your father wanted to learn some new tricks and bought a new movie, and guess what? Our son was in it teaching him how to fuck Mexicans. , and then he was so angry that he suffered a heart attack and died on the spot.”

Tommy smiled, lit a cigarette, and nodded to Mark: "So why did you do this kind of thing in the first place?"

"What else could there be for me at this age? Of course she is a woman. I have a girlfriend who is very beautiful and is my classmate. I wanted to buy her a necklace, and then I was attracted by the advertisement and tricked her into going to the set. I spent Saturdays and weeks on it. After two days of shooting, I earned enough money to buy the necklace she liked. On Sunday night, I gave it to my girlfriend, and she was so moved by the surprise." Mark said with a rich expression. , walked over and took the cigarette case from Tommy's hand, lit it skillfully and held it in his mouth:

“But in the end we broke up because she was going to have sex with me that night, something exciting, and she was grateful for the surprise I gave her, but the moment she took off her clothes, I rushed into the bathroom and vomited. "

Tommy looked surprised: "Wow, what a sad story."

"Look, Tommy, I appreciate you looking up to me and giving me a job. I'm going to work hard at it, and I'm going to make sure I learn those computers. I want to work for a real company, with a slicked-back haircut, and a suit." , so maybe even if they are walking on the street, they will at most think that the leading actor in that movie is somewhat similar to me, and as a diligent, studious person with a stable job, it is absolutely impossible for me to do that kind of thing." Mark lowered his head and took a sip of wine. , and then said seriously to Tommy.

Tommy shook his head: "Man, your attitude makes me very satisfied, then you can take action."

"Let me look for it on "Happy Seekers"..." Mark wanted to ask.

"That kind of efficiency is too low. I think you are very brave, so you can do something more extraordinary. Do you know that it is not easy to get the company's shares, and it is even more difficult to get money. You have to do it in order to get it." Pay more for that money, think about what you can get from your college, and what do we need? These are the questions that people like you should consider, cheap whore? Brother, I will never let you go again Dealing with those scumbags, I want to ensure that you make money as soon as possible, so that you can get out of panic and no longer worry about being discovered. You can throw money in those people's faces and tell them that you are a scientific and technological talent. Damn slander, your lawyer can force their whole family to jump off the rooftop." Tommy interrupted Mark, walked up to him, stretched out his hand to hold the back of the other person's head, with an encouraging smile on his face:

"Use your brain, what do we need? Mark, think about this problem clearly and solve it. I will ask a few high-end call girls who charge four hundred yuan per session, the kind of model-level call girls, to let their superb skills help you first. Heal the shadow that Mexican women have left you.”

Mark stared into Tommy's eyes and nodded blankly.

…

"It feels like we are getting further and further away from the software company." Jason took a puff of his cigarette, looked at the several extension phones that had just been installed in the garage, shook his head and said to Holly: "You know, I originally wanted to call My father said that I was a partner in a technology company, so I gave him a surprise, but now I have decided to give up on this decision. I am afraid that he will visit me on a whim and find out that I am actually engaged in some kind of fraud company or entertainment company. Work."

Holly shrugged: "I didn't tell my family that my main job after starting a software business was to catch all kinds of money."

"Every company has someone responsible for fishing, Holly."

Tommy quickly walked to his computer with two floppy disks, turned it on and put the floppy disks in. Hearing Jason and Holly's words, he responded in a perfunctory tone: "Good morning, what are you talking about?"

"Nothing, I was chatting with Holly just now, discussing that our software company has not sold the software yet, but we recruited Susan and Mark first. Stanford is full of talents, but you have a sharp eye and picked them up like rubbish from outside. Two." Jason turned his seat to face Tommy and said, "And we have no idea why you chose them."

Tommy said without raising his head: "Because they are cheap. Think about it, I can make them work for me for a long time with a weekly salary of one or two hundred dollars a week, but what about the bastards from Stanford? Each of them has to occupy enough Not to mention too many shares or options, if you find that the company is profitable, you will have to talk to me about salary increases for more than three days. Is academic qualifications important? Of course it is. Networks and resources are closely tied to academic qualifications, so we work hard to get admitted. University, but our men don’t need these now, they can just be obedient, right?”

Tommy Hawke raised his head and glanced at Jason: "Or would any of you be willing to give up your shares and let me recruit a few real Stanford talents?"

"I'm going to learn about the charging situation for TV ads. I'm not going to participate in this kind of meeting, so Jason, you and Tommy talk slowly." Holly made a face at Jason, then turned and left the garage.

Jason breathed out: "Your roommate's father is here to help you, not to make money. I'm just worried that the money will corrupt you, Tommy."

"So? Silly*." After Tommy retrieved the information in the floppy disk, he glanced at Jason with a smile, and then looked at the computer screen intently.

"I am willing to sacrifice everything for you, son. You can give me more shares to let money corrupt me faster, thus ensuring that you continue to be simple and kind, and retain your true self in front of money. Don't worry about me, I can hold on." Sen said opening his hands to Tommy.

"No, my dear roommate Jason, I am so touched that you are willing to sacrifice yourself for me. To express my gratitude, I will definitely adjust your work. You can look forward to it now." Tommy stared at the screen. The file displayed on the screen, mouth said.

Seeing Tommy's focused expression, Jason asked curiously: "What is that? Where did you get some military secrets?"

"No, Mark's crap community college student profile, he got it under the pretense of helping enter it into the computer, it's a copy for the company, you know what that means? We have over five thousand phone numbers now."

"You're fucking committing a crime!" Jason jumped up from his seat in fright, walked quickly to Tommy, looked at the data on the screen, lowered his voice and said with eyes widened: "You're crazy! Tommy! If word gets out, you'll be sent to jail!"

"Dude, don't worry, if you leak it, Mark will go to jail too, and in a garbage school like a community college, 60% of the faculty are fucking part-time, and the entire community college has more than 5,000 students, but There are only seventy full-time teachers, and the remaining two hundred or so are part-time. Most administrative matters are provided by student volunteers, so it is not surprising if any leaks occur, not to mention that we will not spread or commit crimes, we just make phone calls Go to those students’ homes and fool those community college guys into believing that as long as they learn our software, they can become high-tech talents, and then we will send them to Silicon Valley to work as ordinary clerks.” Tommy looked through the information and said calmly. .

Jason was so frightened that he changed his color and said in an excited tone: "Tommy, you can't let Actor act like a normal company, developing software, advertising in computer magazines, visiting software dealers to help with sales, and writing various commercials. Why do you do this when you send the plan to the offices of those investment companies? This is not fucking normal! I don’t want you to fail in your business, and then I can only write to San Quentin Prison to greet you and care about you. If your butt is still intact in prison, can I send you some topical medicine? Silly*!”

"Like a normal company? Advertise in computer magazines? Visit software dealers? Send plans to investment companies? Jason, you still don't fucking understand that this company has been abnormal since the day it was founded. Two aspects of this software The main functions were borrowed from the best-selling software of two large software companies, which determined from the beginning that it could not be normal!"

"Publish an ad in a computer magazine? That's their territory. Pay a reporter to write a review? The reporter charges you 1,000 yuan to write an article praising us, and tomorrow he will receive 5,000 yuan from the other party to scold us. The most important thing is that the other party will definitely file a lawsuit. You have seen the lawyer's letter, right? As soon as it is officially launched, it is the end of the world. Will investors spend money to get involved in this shithole? Of course not. Those smart people have the hardest time getting their money." Tommy saw Jason was a little excited, so he simply stopped, leaned back in his chair and looked directly at Jason and said:

"Do you understand? According to normal company thinking, we can't do it. Who the hell will care about a software company whose core function is plagiarism? So we need to find another way. If we want to get investors' money, we must first let them know To our ability, for example, at least you have to hold on for at least one fucking round when the two major companies attack you. All the bullshit that you think has nothing to do with software at this moment is all saving up for a real war with them. Power! Do you and Holly think that you can survive by selling software to a group of prostitutes, a group of unemployed women, and then using a human resources company to make a small amount of money? Stop fucking kidding, when those bastards really do it, you will I found out that I did countless fucking things just to prevent the Actor from being trampled to death by two elephants in the first round."

"What would have happened if we hadn't been trampled to death?" Jason sat back weakly and asked Tommy.

Tommy spread his hands: "If we are not trampled to death, we will let them know that they are in a dark forest and exposed themselves like idiots."
