Chapter 1408 Luck Says Bankruptcy

Song Ya received unprecedented courtesy from the Donkey Party during the National Convention. The heads of the House of Representatives took the initiative to welcome them, and met privately with the current grand commander, his wife, Gore, Lieberman, and a large number of Donkey Party leaders. Instead of talking about topics that politicians and celebrities would talk about, talk about elections, the economy, and politics.

Not only because he is the big benefactor of the future president of the United States, but also because the Donkey Party is likely to lose the majority of the House of Representatives this year, so it needs more support. After France ordered Messier and old Bronfman to bow their heads, During this time two more things happened:

First, Linkin Park’s first studio album Hybrid Theory under Metropolitan Records has a huge explosion in music reviews and sales. This is not hip-hop or country music that is difficult to get out of the United States at this stage, but rock and roll, and the whole world will buy it. rock music.

The global sales of Hybrid Theory albums are estimated to be in the tens of millions. Previously relying solely on Song Ya’s three albums, Jazzy’s and others’ hip-hop music did little to help the distribution outside the United States. The metropolitan distribution network maintained at a loss will be alive immediately, and it will be 100% next year. Turn a loss into a profit. And a global record distribution network that is profitable and self-operating well, no matter how small it is, is worthy of instantly ranking among the top five second-tier distributors in the record industry. There is no suspense.

Successful classic rock albums last for a long time, causing both Metropolis and Met to double and triple in value.

This was beyond Song Ya's expectations. He signed Linkin Park only to win the original singer of the apocalypse song Remember The Name, Mike Xintian.

Another excellent example of the Uncertainty Principle, although this time the results skewed towards a surprisingly positive return.

Second, Juniper, a recent A+ venture capital investment, recently released new core and edge router products, and its market share quickly increased to 15%. One billion knives, you must know that the company's total revenue last year was only 100 million...

The reason is that it has something to do with the record industry. In the previous bull market environment, operators and wire and cable companies told stories and got financing to expand and build infrastructure. When the stock market crash came, they had to fight price wars to survive. Network tariffs As it becomes cheaper and cheaper, the number of Internet users and traffic will naturally increase accordingly. The P2P technology developed by Napster to facilitate the sharing of pirated music will create a very large number of concurrent connections in the network environment. Juniper's routing technology route happens to have a faster throughput for concurrent connections than the industry leader Cisco's products. .

At the same time, in order to cope with the soaring demand for concurrent connections and increasingly rampant hacker attacks, many network firewall companies cast by A+ Venture Capital are also surging.

Song Ya did almost nothing,

The money lost on websites such as YAHOO has been fully recovered from a series of emerging network equipment companies such as Juniper. He was an early investor in Juniper and still owns 5% of its shares. The current value is 3.25 billion knife.

Coupled with the global battle of Vivendi, now no one will think that he is a "pig on the wind" who relies entirely on luck. A person who relies purely on luck may have a moment of glory, but it is impossible to have a moment of glory, right? It’s enough to bet once or twice. In the long-term and continuous betting, apart from the unreliable reason for making gods that can predict the future, there is only one explanation: APLUS is indeed a capable, skilled, and capable person. An all-around genius with beastly investment instincts.

And the net worth of this genius has already been squeezed into the ranks of the world's top rich people. In August, when the editorial department of Fujibi Magazine ranked the world's richest people for 2,000 years, no matter how you calculate it, they had to set him a 7.3 billion sword body in a messy manner. Home, the thirty-ninth place after Fidelity fund heir Abigail Johnson, officially ranked among the top forty richest people in the world.

We must know that this year's stock market crash has caused the fortunes of tech giants to shrink to varying degrees. Bill Gates, the richest man, lost more than 30 billion a year, Microsoft CEO Ballmer lost 4 billion, and Song Ya was born carrying Internet stocks. Crashed, and his net worth skyrocketed to nearly three billion.

According to Song Ya's own calculations, his net worth is around the tens of billions mark.

The extremely keen political animals in Washington are naturally the first group of people to react. Even the chairman of the California Donkey Party and Congressman Patricia, who has a good relationship with the former president of Paramount Pictures Shirley Lansing, is no longer In the conversation, he only asked a few words about his views on Huaguo.

Song Ya responded easily with increasingly mature theories of collapse and globalization.

Since the age of sixteen, the super funder who has been steadfast and generous in investing in donkey party politicians is only twenty-five or six this year! If nothing else, in the next 50 years, he will use plenty of gold dollars, carrots and sticks to influence the election and political situation in the United States.

"Haha, APLUS, this is..."

From the beginning to the end, Underwood hugged him affectionately instead of his wife Claire, and helped introduce them one by one. He was happy, and Underwood would never let him go today. Many political transactions within the Donkey Party will be completed during the national convention. It is very beneficial for him to bargain with Gore in order to occupy an important position in the US government next year.

"tired."

After meeting a lot of people, the muscles on her face started to ache from smiling. Song Ya rubbed her cheeks and yawned tiredly, "Go to Long Island together?" Julian Robertson and David Geffen had already said goodbye to their respective private communication , Song Ya invited, "I have prepared a small dinner."

"Long Island?" Underwood wondered.

"Gold Coast, uh... my friend's home."

Song Ya explained: "Ms. Sloan suggested that I don't arrange the dinner in Tribeca. There are too many media during the conference, and there are too many people in the high-rise apartment area over there... Tonight is basically my African-American politician friend."

It should be mainly the Manhattan gang. Underwood asked his wife Claire for advice, and the couple readily accepted the invitation.

"African-American groups like the current general very much, and their perception of his wife... may be worse, but Gore? Believe me, our voting intentions in this year's general election will definitely be very low. Gore is no better than George Jr. Why bother How about a trip to the polling station?"

The Manhattan Gang came back from Madison Square Garden one step earlier. Although they performed a solidarity situation externally, some people, such as Pierre Sutton, chairman of the Inner City Broadcasting Company, were very unfriendly to Gore in private. He smoked a cigar and complained. : "Even if Mr. APLUS firmly helps the platform to endorse."

Now the black elites of the entire Mimi are undoubtedly firmly on the side of the ethnic hero Song Ya, as are the politicians of the Xiangdang Party.

"What's the use of saying this? Pierre, we won't vote for George Jr., will we? There is no suspense about Gore's election."

Jesse Jackson, a black affirmative leader who was born as a pastor and is more consistent with Gore in terms of conservative tendencies, said with a smile: "Polls don't lie."

"There's a tendency to get closer," Ms. Sloan cautioned.

"Not enough time."

At present, the Gore poll is leading by a large margin, and Jesse Jackson is very optimistic, "Hey! APLUS!" He brought his precious son today, Jesse Jr., a member of the Federal Representative, and immediately greeted Song Ya when he walked in the door, and sent Xiaojie Xi introduced to this black pharaoh, the super gold master.

Little Jessie’s Illinois 2nd District is located in the suburbs south of Chicago’s South City. Since his first re-election campaign in 1996, he has received donations from the Susie Foundation and Where Is Love Foundation. This takes money, but Song Ya and Little Jesse have hardly dealt with each other.

"Hello……"

Little Jessie looked only ten years older than himself. Song Ya, who hurried back, greeted the guests one by one, apologizing for being late as the host, "I'm sorry to arrange the dinner here, is it easy to find?" He asked.

"Haha, we don't have to jump into the wrong door, it's such a big manor mansion!"

Jesse Jackson laughed heartily, "I like the cross-shaped window at the gate, is it a Catholic style?"

"Yes."

Of course, this is a French-style villa. Hayden is very experienced and careful in buying a house. He chose this place to take care of the beliefs of Shakira's family. "Let me introduce it for you." Song Ya hugged and walked forward Mistress, "Shakira..."

"Haha, we all know each other."

"You know Senator Underwood, this is his wife Claire."

Song Ya also introduced Underwood, the politician with the closest relationship with him. Before that, he could not take the initiative to establish a direct connection between Underwood and the Manhattan Gang, but Underwood has gained his absolute trust in this attack on Vivendi Universal. After ten years of running-in, the two were finally able to give their backs to each other with peace of mind.

And there is still business today, that is, the Jef Jam record fake account case sent to Wall Street Inspector Spitzer, commonly known as the Lyle Cohen case, is still unresolved.

"Let's go inside and talk alone for a while, don't bring other people in, especially Estefan and the others." Song Ya whispered to Shakira, Estefan and the members of the Latin gang were quite similar to Harley when he just traded in stocks. The vigor of the time annoyed him.

"Well, let's go."

Shakira replied obediently, her new English-language album this year was coldly received by the market, and she had a lot of free time.

"According to inside information, Lyle Cohen cunningly recruited Spitzer to some operations of Daniel and I at Def Jam Records. Daniel was the president of Sony Columbia Records, which owned half of Def Jam, and the deal was his Indirectly, he and I were also involved in the entrustment of a certain income..."

Entering the small room with Underwood, Ms. Sloan, Sutton and his son, and former New York Mayor Dingkins, they are all trustworthy people. Song Ya generously explained the inside information of some suspected illegal transactions at the beginning, "There is not much money, Looks like millions."

"What was Lyle Cohen's role at the time?" Underwood asked.

"Daniel's ally and I were in charge of threading the needle. We teamed up to drive away Russell Simmons, the largest individual shareholder of Def Jam." Song Ya replied.

Sutton and his son have a good relationship with Russell Simmons, and they know some inside information, "Your lawyer was Hamlin at the time, right?" Percy Sutton asked.

Song Ya nodded, "Yes, he is still in jail."

"Lyle Cohen bites like this... I'm not afraid..." Pierre Sutton said half a sentence.

"Nobody cares about him now."

Song Ya contacted Doug Morris, President of Universal Music through Daniel. Doug Morris hinted that Vivendi Universal CEO Messier has completely laissez-faire attitude towards Lyle Cohen. He will not save or contact him. It is inconvenient to intervene in self-protection, and Lyle Cohen is like a headless chicken now.

Since Ron Meyer, Doug Morris' former colleague at the same level, will soon be the new president of Universal Entertainment, and as the former founder of the CAA agency, Ron Meyer is a guy who knows the entertainment industry very well. Gemorris can no longer play tricks like he did with Bronfman Jr., and there is very little room for maneuver.

"Just do a good job with Spitzer," Sloan said. "This kind of old small case ... don't really bother the New York State Attorney General."

"But about what happened last time, Spitzer..." Underwood didn't say clearly, "He has a bit of resentment towards us, APLUS."

"I know." Song Ya nodded, looking at Sutton and his son and Dingkins.

In New York State, the Manhattan Gang still has some influence. "We will say hello to David, who has a very good personal relationship with Spitzer," Pierre Sutton said.

David Patterson, future hope of the Manhattan Gang, senator from the New York State Assembly.

"Let's leave it at that for the time being. Spitzer is very conceited. The more pressure we put on, the more we may mess things up. David should be able to handle it." Dingkins said.

"okay."

Song Ya nodded. An illegal incident that would have made him jump like a dog in the past is now settled.

"By the way, APLUS, when is the Seagram Wine auction?" After the brief meeting, Pierre Sutton got up and asked casually.

"It's almost the end of the month." Song Ya glanced at the date on the watch.
