Reborn Tech Maniac

Chapter 844 Take a deep breath
PS: Chapter 0920 was blocked once, but fortunately it was released quickly, it is really unnecessary.

In addition, starting from Chapter 0266, there are a few chapters that I can’t read, and they should be blocked. There is no processing result yet, let’s just make do with it—there will be bread!

……

Mr. Richest Man’s vision and ability to make money, naturally no one doubts, but his admiration for the prospect of AOL is more considered by the people present to be the “false” among the false and true that the big shots are used to—just kidding, We believe AOL has good prospects, but it would be an exaggeration to say that its value can be so high that it surpasses Time Warner Turner at a fraction of the price.If this is really the case, why should we be embarrassed?

Tang Huan, who had a panoramic view of everyone's reactions, smiled slightly, put down his glass of red wine, and said to Richard Parsons, "AOL plans to move its headquarters to New York. Is there any property available at Rockefeller Center?"

Upon hearing this, many people gasped - most of the company headquarters settled in Rockefeller Center are old companies like General Electric; the former Time Warner and the current Time Warner Turner are also among them.Mr. Richest Man is trying to bring AOL up to par!

Of course, there is no rule that says no.But the problem is that America Online, whose company history is only a little over ten years old, is still burning money. Is it necessary to spend an extra sum of office expenses like this?

"You should consult someone with this question." Richard Parsons shrugged his shoulders after he regained his composure. "As far as I know, the buildings in Rockefeller Center are all under the management of Mitsubishi Land."

The richest man nodded slightly——Richard Parsons, who was closely related to the Rockefeller family, implied that the Rockefeller family would not be involved in such matters.

"Or, I'll ask Time Warner Turner to free up some offices for America Busy." Gerald Levine suddenly interjected with great interest: "Presumably America Online, like WarnerMedia before it, has divided the financial and other administrative departments On the east coast, the creative department remains on the west coast, and the office space required should be limited.”

Tang Huan raised his brows, "But America Online still intends to take over the naming rights of the entire building."

Gerald Levine smiled wryly, "If that's the case, then there's nothing I can do."

……

You can tell with your eyes closed that the news that AOL wanted to move its headquarters into Rockefeller Center spread across the United States like wings.

Among the many discussions, the first voice that popped up was ridicule—it's so ambitious, and I don't even weigh my own strength!With such unnecessary administrative expenses, the executives sitting in luxurious offices are indeed decent and comfortable, but are they worthy of the eagerly expecting investors?

America Online?Hmph, this name is so fucking politically correct and hilarious!Unfortunately, not very business wise.

This is really the best April Fool's show this year.

The overwhelming disdain made AOL's relocation plan a typical international joke of overreaching. Even the milkman on the most remote farm can gossip.

According to Nielsen ratings survey data, this year's Oscars ceremony has an average of 4626 million viewers across the United States. After comparison, sorry, at least 1 million Americans chanted the name of AOL.

Soon, observers in Silicon Valley commented calmly—an emerging Internet company like America Online cannot be measured from a traditional perspective.

Just when you were enjoying yourself, did you know that America Online's traffic had doubled and had to urgently expand the line and increase the number of servers?
Furthermore, although AOL is not as good as Fangyuan and Zheru, it is an absolute NumberOne among Internet companies.As a leader and representative, if it really moves its headquarters into Rockefeller Center, it will be a good thing for the publicity of the entire industry.

……

The richest man really doesn't care about such noises that attract different looks!
What he wants is this much-anticipated effect.

If Internet companies want to develop, don’t they do everything possible to “seek attention”?

It can be said that Tang Huan deliberately created this topic.

"Onyxia took a deep breath..." and then exhaled the ultimate move to destroy the group; the richest man also took a deep breath, but what he blew out was not a dragon's breath flame, but colorful lights beautiful speech bubbles.

If the development of the Internet at this stage still cannot escape the law of the bubble bursting disaster, then the initial bubble should also be blown by the giant dragon Tang IT.

Whether it is born or destroyed, it is all out of my hands.

The truth is that simple!
Of course, it's true that AOL wants to move its headquarters to Rockefeller Center.Otherwise, not only will it really become a joke, but it will also amuse everyone, which will really attract people's hatred.

If you want to find a place in Rockefeller Center, you should really consult Mitsubishi Land, which spent 2200 billion yen to buy this New York landmark-such common sense, there is no need for Richard Parsons to remind Tang Huan I know, but sometimes, he will strategically and knowingly pretend to be confused.

Usually, when dealing with a person, the richest man will deliberately bring Masako Wada, a Harvard graduate, a book of new women with both tradition and modernity, to show his intimacy.

However, now that Masako Wada is inconvenient, Tang Huan arranged for her to rest carefully.Let others handle this kind of affairs, and there is no requirement for absolute privacy anyway.

There is no doubt about a person's sense of service, not to mention the fact that AOL's move has caused such a big commotion.

Soon, the Rockefeller Group, which is controlled by Mitsubishi Land and the specific manager of Rockefeller Center, sent someone to the door.The leader is a Japanese-born lawyer named Yuasa Taku.

This gentleman's hairstyle has a slightly exaggerated bangs, which has a kind of vigor fluttering in the wind.

After the richest man looked at the other party for a few times, he said with a smile: "It seems that you have the demeanor of a showbiz star."

Yuasa Taku bowed humbly, and replied: "It's not a star, I signed a contract with Hori Production Co., Ltd., and sometimes I will appear in some TV shows."

"Oh..." Tang Huan asked with interest: "Is it the Hori Production Co., Ltd. that Momoe Yamaguchi belongs to?"

"Exactly." Yuasa Zhuo nodded, and then added: "When Mitsubishi Land acquired the Rockefeller Group, I was a member of the lawyer's agency team. So, please trust my professional ability."

"Of course I believe in your serious work attitude and professional service level." The richest man laughed, "Then, you must have brought the solution I wanted this time."

"Of course we dare not neglect." Tang Qianzhuo took out the documents and asked tentatively: "I heard from your staff, it seems that they are more inclined to buy properties than lease properties, and hope to get more than one building?"

"If you can buy it, don't rent it." Tang Huan replied as a matter of course: "I also want to design a theme for AOL that best demonstrates the characteristics of the Internet industry. How can a building be enough?"

Yuasa Zhuo unconsciously bent down another 30 degrees, respectfully handed over the document to Mr. Richest Man, and carefully introduced: "We recommend to you the seventh building in Rockefeller Center. , it used to be the headquarters of the famous Hollywood film company RKO.”

Tang Huan flipped through a few pages noncommittally, with an obvious expression on his face that was better than nothing.

Seeing this scene, Yuasa Zhuofei was not uneasy, but was a little excited to test again: "I don't know, if I am lucky, arrange a meeting between you and the president of Mitsubishi Estate Takeshi Fukuzawa?"

"What do you mean?" The richest man raised his head, and glanced at the other party who was full of care.

"Perhaps, through the meeting with President Fukuzawa, you can get the answer you want on the issue of purchasing the Rockefeller Center property." Yuasa Takashi explained sentence by sentence.

"Are you suggesting to me that Mitsubishi Estate wants to sell Rockefeller Center, which it acquired just a few years ago?" Tang Huan asked playfully.

"I'm just providing an information." Tang Qianzhuo waved his hand quickly and said, "I can't guarantee the specific situation."

Tang Huan didn't doubt what Tang Qianzhuo said.In addition to the information from the original time and space for reference, Gein also has the energy of an American lawyer who can take both sides.

Of course, the so-called double-sidedness refers to the entire profession of lawyers, not to individuals. Otherwise, there will be a big problem with professional ethics.

Take the Rodney King case that triggered the Los Angeles riots in 1992. Rodney King, who was attacked by the police with batons, and his lawyer, claimed 1 million US dollars based on the standard of 100 million US dollars per baton. Dollar.As a result, when the verdict came out last year, Rodney King received $5600 million in compensation.And a considerable part of it was taken away by lawyers.

This industry is so profitable, and naturally its energy is unfathomable.

When Mitsubishi Estate acquired the Rockefeller Group, it organized a large team of lawyers and accountants.It is estimated that Yuasa Zhuo, a registered lawyer in the District of Columbia, USA, is addicted to eating like this.

"That's good." The richest man waved his hand knowingly, "I'm looking forward to this meeting."

……

After asking his subordinates and Yu Qianzhuo to go to the Seventh Building of Rockefeller Center first, Tang Huan picked up the remote control and clicked it, and the TV began to play the recent news review of Mexico specially made by CNN.

1994 was an election year for Mexico to run for president.This position with the greatest power does not have a vice president. The term of office is 6 years and cannot be re-elected. However, since 1929, it has been governed by the revolution~system~file~.

Therefore, according to convention, although this year is a period of power transfer, it should be calm.

However, the world is unpredictable. On January 1 this year-the day when the North American Free Trade Agreement came into effect, the "Sapa" protest broke out in the state of Chiapas in southern Mexico, aiming to protect the interests of the local Indians. Tower Movement".

Their army is called the "Zapata National Liberation Organization", which fights against 500 years of Spanish imperialism, fights for the rights of native Indians, and has many supporters in the Mexican urban area and internationally.

Once this kind of armed struggle is launched, the political situation in Mexico suddenly becomes turbulent.

What's more, on March 3rd, Luis Donaldo Colocio, the presidential candidate of revolution~system~, participated in the parade in the largest city in Baja California, Mexico, which is close to San Diego in Southern California, USA. In Tijuana, where the group CD was holding an election campaign, he was shot in the head by a killer.

This is a big problem—you know, since Luis Donaldo Colosio has become the presidential candidate in the revolutionary~system~stage, based on the current situation, he is basically the next Mexican president .

In particular, the time of the assassination of Luis Donaldo Colosio came after the Zapatista National Liberation Organization expressed its willingness to engage in dialogue.

In terms of economy, Mexico's financial market has not opened up at an ordinary pace - the privatization of banks, the abolition of capital controls and other big moves have been released in one go like "combo skills" in just a few years, attracting The influx of a large amount of hot money led to excessive dependence on foreign capital.

The situation would be better if the money was mainly used to invest in production, but the reality is that it has all gone to support consumption, including luxury goods.

It can be said that Mexico is indeed a paradise for short-term speculative capital.It's just that only the Mexicans know whether Mexico is being played badly.

Looking at politics and economy together, the reason why Mexico's political situation is so chaotic is itself inextricably linked to the economy, and now it has in turn added a lot of uncertainty to the economy.

In Tang Huan's view, Mexico at this stage obviously has all the necessary conditions for the outbreak of the economic crisis, and it is just waiting for the fuse to be ignited.

……

As expected, Mr. Richest Man was just doing his homework and meeting some friends. Takeshi Fukuzawa, the president of Mitsubishi Estate, called and said that he would come to the United States immediately for a visit.

"This big landlord, he's so courteous that he loses his dignity." Tang Huan shook his head with a smile.

"What status does he have in front of you!" The scornful female ship king Christina has always regarded her man as a god.

If the Mexican financial crisis really breaks out, it will be a gluttonous feast at the door of the United States, and it is not generally convenient to eat.

However, under the general trend of economic globalization, the US government is very likely to intervene due to political concerns that the fire at the city gate will affect the fish in the pond.

The richest man who cherishes feathers, after considering this, decided to let the resources of the ship queen to operate.

During the European currency crisis, Tang Huan went across the Atlantic to give advice; now that Christina has come to fish in troubled waters, it can be said that there are backs and forths—this is how the family hangs.

"You can't say that. After all, Mitsubishi Estate is the core enterprise of the Mitsubishi chaebol, so you can't underestimate it." Tang Huan calmly and modestly angered his woman.
