Chapter 39 The Real American Dream

Walking out of St. Patrick's Cathedral, Dan felt a little depressed.

He still can't accept it. Nate made a special appointment for him to meet here, but the real purpose was just to use him as a bargaining chip to negotiate with Jamie.

In other words, he was able to get Grandpa Nate's college recommendation letter not because he could play a big role in this matter, but just because he was Jamie's friend.

When they parted at the door, Jamie planned to invite Dan to sit in his new home.

Dan shook his head in refusal.

He had just been hit once and didn't want to be hit a second time.

Jamie nodded, asked Dan to wait a moment, and then walked into a roadside coffee shop and quickly brought back two cups of hot coffee.

Dan planned to take the subway back, and Jamie decided to accompany him to the subway station.

On the way, Dan finally couldn't help asking the question that had been hidden in his heart for a long time.

"Grandpa Nate can obviously provide Nate with a nice apartment, so why does he want to see Nate come to live in my house?"

Jamie took a sip of coffee, stopped and looked at Dan who was confused, and explained seriously:

"This problem is the same as when my father asked me to stay at your house when he could have just bought me an apartment in New York."

"You can imagine if the words on the title page of Percy Jackson were not 'He was inspired to write this story while living in a Brooklyn boarding house,' but instead 'He was inspired to write this story in a Manhattan penthouse. Inspired to write this story, which one is more inspiring, more in line with the American dream, and more resonant with readers and their parents?"

Dan looked at Jamie in shock.

As a quasi-adult on the verge of reaching adulthood, of course he could tell that what Jamie was saying now was true.

Jamie shrugged, holding a paper coffee cup.

"You don't have to look at me like that. I also learned this trick from others, and this person must know it, the famous founder of Apple, Steve Jobs."

Dan's Adam's apple rolled hard, and he had a strong feeling that what he heard next would completely subvert his previous understanding.

"So you don't really think that Jobs assembled the first PC in the garage because he was so poor that he didn't even have a formal place to start a business, right?"

"There are also Bill Gates' Microsoft, Bezos' Amazon, and Google. These companies were all born in garages. Do you think this is accidental? No, they are just copying Jobs' work."

"After all, a company born in a garage is inherently friendly to the people, which makes it easier for the company to establish a good image."

"What they're never going to tell you is that there's probably a huge swimming pool next to the garage where they started their business, and a wide lawn to play golf on."

"The same goes for Nate. He should have already decided to start a business before you extended the invitation to him. In this case, it is naturally impossible for him to live in a big house."

"If WeHouse succeeds in the future, you will definitely see similar words in Nate's entrepreneurial story. After his father was defrauded and owed money and absconded, he had to live in a friend's house in Brooklyn. This experience became He is the biggest driving force behind starting a business.”

Jamie shrugged at Dan.

“Doesn’t it sound very inspiring? At least it sounds more convincing than the founder of WeHouse lying in a big bathtub in the penthouse next to Central Park, leading his partners to create a company that amazed the world, doesn’t it? "

This meeting with Nate's grandfather made Jamie determined to push Nate to the forefront.

This was actually the deal Jamie made with Grandpa Nate, too.

Nate is destined to enter an official career in the future. If he can have a glorious resume of successful entrepreneurship before that, it will help him gain the trust and support of voters more easily.

To put it bluntly, Grandpa Nate hopes that Nate can complete the gold plating at WeHouse.

In exchange, the Vanderbilt family will become WeHouse's staunch allies in its development.And this is why on the plane yesterday, Jamie was determined to join Lanette.

After learning the truth, Dan finally left in despair.

He declined Jamie's offer to accompany him to the subway station, and just wanted to be alone for a while.

Jamie, who stood there, had no regrets.

What he just said just revealed to Dan the cruel truth about this society.

If he can't even accept this, then Dan will only encounter more beatings when he truly enters society.

On the way to the apartment, Jamie received a call from Jimmy.

This guy had just found a place to live in Brooklyn and was eager to get to work.

Eager to show off, he has now completed the domain name registration and company registration for WeHouse.

Jamie glanced at the calendar schedule on his phone.

Chuck's dad and Lily's wedding is scheduled to be held in a week. Jamie, Chuck and Nate have all been invited to be the best men, and the bridesmaids are Serena and Blair.

Before that, Jamie had to go to Phillips Exeter High School.

Rebecca had sent Zuckerberg’s mobile phone and email to Jamie’s phone yesterday, and early this morning, Jamie received a “resume” from Zuckerberg in his email.

A website to be precise.

After Zuckerberg learned some ideas for WeHouse from Rebecca, he wrote the website code in just a few hours.

The WeHouse website functions envisioned by Jamie are basically implemented on this website.

I have to admit, this guy is really efficient.

Although there is a lot of showoff in it.

Jamie told Zuckerberg in his reply email that he would go to him in the near future.

The specific time is tomorrow.

More than a week has passed since 911. Except for the ruins of the collapsed World Trade Center, which is still smoking, other places in New York have returned to normal order.

Even so, Jamie's first choice for travel is still to drive rather than fly.

Because it was an official business trip under the guise of "interviewing" Zuckerberg, Jamie took a look at a yellow Lamborghini Diablo SV in Chuck's garage, which is also commonly known as the third-generation Daniel.

This car is a newly revised model launched by Audi after acquiring Lamborghini from Chrysler, with a top speed of over 320 km/h.

Until the suspension of production last year, only 100 units had been produced worldwide.

Zuckerberg showed off his programming skills, so Jamie had to show off his wealth.

Early the next morning, Serena was still sleeping soundly. Jamie, who had gone downstairs early, took the key to the Lamborghini Diablo SV from Chuck's driver, stepped through the scissor door and got in.

With the low roar of the motor, the sports car drove all the way north out of New York and sped towards Phillips Exeter College in New Hampshire.

　Zuckerberg’s high school was mistaken before. The two high schools are sister schools. They are both called Phillips. They just have different suffixes. One is in Massachusetts and the other is in New Hampshire. The previous article has been corrected.
