Chapter 1438

Some things, only when the lid is lifted, people will suddenly realize...

Since the hedge fund issued a short-selling report at the beginning of the year, Enron's stock price has fallen by half by August, but the company's top management has always been very confident to the outside world, and its self-rescue measures are also very firm. It has obtained a new credit line guarantee from a large consortium. Some buyers are willing. Acquisition, all kinds of rumors are flying around, true or false. Including Song Ya himself and stockbroker O'Grady believe that this one of the world's largest electricity, natural gas and telecommunications companies with a market value of 100 billion yuan and more than 20,000 employees around the world has almost fallen into place.

It wasn't until October that they handed over their second-quarter financial report, which was a huge loss. The US Securities and Exchange Commission launched an investigation, and then they were downgraded by Standard & Poor's and Merrill Lynch. The stock price plummeted again, and the capital market realized that something was wrong. On 9/11 and the war thousands of miles away.

Today, while the Mi army launched a ground attack and admitted financial fraud, their reputation was ruined. Song Ya instantly realized that their problem must have been too big to be repaired, and Wall Street would not be distracted by public opinion. , but ordinary people will, and the intensity of the regulators and prosecutors to hold Enron executives accountable will be affected by public opinion, so this should be a self-protection operation for their personal interests in the future...

"Thanks."

Retrieving the coat at the storage point, Song Ya held it in his hand, looked back at the Capitol Hill Club, Scout had already chatted with a familiar face, the key soldier in the Bahn chemical case, a former soldier : Heinrich.

After Heinrich retired from the army, he has now joined the middle and high levels of a defense contractor company, and the Deep Sea Trading Company, which currently only has Scott as a bare-handed commander, is temporarily unable to obtain the first-level contractor qualification from the current government of the Georgian Dynasty. , Still following the line of John Cheney, Deep Sea Trading is expected to become a subcontracting company under the defense contractor Heinrich works for.

Kasiti was holding the arm of her superficial boyfriend, socializing with her colleagues in the Elephant Party with a sweet face.

Some things are often impossible to follow a fixed process all the way to victory or failure, but will be disturbed by various accidents or the whims of the people in the game, and go to another track...

For example, Cassidy's way of solving her marital affairs, or herself being targeted by ultra-conservatives who have just been vacated.

After the war, although Song Ya and other African-American elites expected that the Georgian Dynasty would start to win over the black group, they still did not guess that the transformation of the Georgian Dynasty, which was worried about affecting the morale of black soldiers on the front lines and fearing a repeat of the Los Angeles incident in 1992, was so strong. It is so big that recently they have almost licked and flattered the black group, especially the black elite, and their own troubles have naturally disappeared without a sound.

Even Gordon, even if he doesn't go into politics next year and still stays on the anchor station, I'm afraid no one will say anything about driving him away...

"let's go."

The Secretary of State would not rush to the occasion, so guests are naturally not allowed to bring bodyguards. Today, the old Mike also put on a strict formal dress. Song Ya looked away from the positive and smiling Cassetti, and called the old man to go out together. boarding.

'What is an iPod? The iPod is an MP3 music player with CD-like sound quality and supports mainstream digital music file formats...'

'Rechargeable polymer lithium battery, it can be recharged repeatedly, 10 hours of continuous playback, 80% of the charge for one hour...'

‘We used a hard drive with a diameter of only 1.8 inches...5G capacity...it can hold a thousand songs,

Super portable, no need to worry about vibration like a CD player...a box of poker...the thickness is only 0.78 inches, lighter than the mobile phone in your pocket...'

On November 13th, only four to five days after the ground attack, the coalition forces of the United States and the local warlords captured the capital of Afghanistan. The illustrious military exploits made it clear that those who commit crimes against America will be punished even if they are far away...

Song Ya, who returned to Highland Park, was not interested in focusing on international affairs. He stared at Jobs, who showed a small white device in his hand on the TV, and fell silent.

Jobs' Apple released an MP3 player called the iPod on the 23rd of last month. It seemed a bit out of business, but the familiarity that hadn't been there for a long time lingered in Song Ya's heart.

"This thing is not new." Mariah Carey said beside her.

Indeed, MP3 players have been around for a long time, but Song Ya will not take it lightly: "But Apple's patented music file format is deeply used in our record production process, and the loss of mastering compression will be lower than other companies' products. That means better sound quality.”

Jobs began to show a piece of Bach played by Chinese cellist YOYO again.

The ex-wife listened intently for a while, "It seems to be better...but so what? It's far worse than the sound quality of CDs. I never listen to this kind of rubbish."

That's the problem, Song Ya frowned, because she didn't listen to it herself, and her ten years of professional musician career had already spoiled her ears, and she couldn't stand the poor sound quality of MP3.

"O'Grady, what is Apple's stock price now?" Song Ya called her stockbroker.

"It's more than one yuan and thirty cents, which is a slight increase from the cost price you paid at the beginning." O'Grady replied.

"Let's increase our holdings more, and buy more this time." Song Ya ordered.

"Did you see their new MP3 player?" O'Grady cheered up. "There is a problem with that thing. They use Apple's unique data line, and the market acceptance..."

"Buy it, I'll ask my private lawyer to bring the authorization documents over."

Calling Song Zecheng to communicate the matter, Song Ya thought about it and called Jeffrey Hawkins, "How difficult is it to make a similar product to Apple's new MP3 player?"

"How difficult is that little thing..."

Jeffrey Hawkins, a technology guru who returned to his company and was concentrating on building smartphones, was very disdainful, "Everything is ready-made for decoding chips, just assemble the hardware and write a small software."

"As good as an apple?"

"Uh... that may not work, some music formats and patent barriers... You can ask Tribeard of DTS, he knows better than me, and he is professional in music playback technology." Jeffrey Hawkins said.

"OK, can you make time to come to Chicago? I'll get Terry Beard, too."

It's still the same old way, hedging investment, Song Ya increased his weight in Apple stocks on the one hand, anyway, now rice stocks are getting more and more miserable by Enron's fake account scandal, and stocks are very cheap. On the other hand, he also plans to make his own. MP3 players have already flooded, and countless miscellaneous companies are making them, and their industries involve record companies, notebook computers, smart phones, VCD players, surround sound formats, chip design, packaging and testing OEMs, etc. As Jeffrey Hawkins said for the related industries, how difficult is it to create a similar product according to the cat and the tiger?

Just do it! He excitedly called people everywhere.

"Hey! When will MC Hammer come back?" The ex-wife kept making trouble beside her.

"He's mentally ill and needs to rest for a while."

Song Ya didn't dare to let out that big-mouthed stick for the time being.

"Hmph..." The ex-wife began to pout.

"What's the matter? Don't you often disagree with him?" This was her habitual action of displeasure, Song Ya asked, "Now you miss him again?"

"That Foxy Brown is more annoying!"

"You really worked hard, I can feel it, the choreography of this dance is very interesting, and you also performed it very well..."

A segment of the ACE street dance competition, the ex-wife is judging the performance of the contestants on the judges' bench, just like a queen.

'I said...' Foxy Brown from MC Hammer wanted to intervene, but his ex-wife didn't even look at her, and made a gesture of "wait for me" and continued talking to herself.

'Can I talk? ’ The street girl Foxy Brown immediately raised her hand in a bitch, asking to speak again like a primary school student.

‘Let’s talk about it after you have the championship list. ’ The two may have had some conflicts before, and the ex-wife, whose qualifications, coffee position and record transcripts are crushed, made Foxy Brown roll his eyes.

"Oh ho ho ho..." Adam Shankman, the only remaining male judge, smelled the smell of gunpowder, and leaned his body away from the two of them.

Seeing this, Song Ya covered her forehead, "This is a hip-hop competition. How about you competing with junior singers?"

"She didn't have it in the first place... She still fights against me everywhere."

The ex-wife complained, "I don't want to see her on the show again, what qualifications does she have to be a hip-hop judge?"

"There are not many celebrities who are willing to take over temporarily. You two fired me as soon as you two..." Song Ya didn't want to do that.

"It's not just tearing apart." The ex-wife said.

"Oh, by the way, let me introduce my mother to everyone, she is over there..." She continued to be a monster on TV, and began to introduce her mother sitting in the audience to the audience, "This is the first time I have known in my life. A DIVA."

The original meaning of DIVA is the leading actress of the opera, and it was later extended to the queen of the recording industry. It is also true that she is called the mother of the chief opera house.

Anyway, talking nonsense, just not giving Foxy Brown a chance to speak.

"ah!"

Foxy Brown, who once got into a fight with Lil King in New York, and who had poor emotional management ability, was finally bullied too much, and left the show in the middle of the show with a scream, quitting.

"Look, she didn't want to do it herself." The ex-wife took the opportunity to grab Song Ya's arm and shake it to please her. She also snatched the phone and dialed Sloan's number.

"This kind of drama, the gossip media won't miss it, right?" Song Ya asked.

"Of course, the whole meter is broadcasting this scene." The ex-wife replied arrogantly: "But I still have to say, it was a mistake for you to get Foxy Brown into the jury, otherwise she would not be qualified to tear me apart..."

"Huh! I really can't do anything about you."

Linda was looking for Foxy Brown, she just wanted to shut up MC Hammer as soon as possible, Song Ya took a deep breath helplessly, and hung up the phone, "Don't bother the CEO of the head office for such trivial matters, I will tell the people at ACE Say hello."

"Thank you..." The ex-wife was satisfied.

"Is this your attitude of gratitude?"

"snort!"

She rolled her eyes back, but immediately obediently thanked her with a distasteful expression.
