Back To 1995

   Chapter 39 Echoes

   "Texas should be the place where America's tech companies should be, the Silicon Valley guys, sooner or later will find this out!"

   Adrian said to the people around him, but Song Yang felt that he seemed to be testing the reactions of the people around him.

   After hearing Adrian's words, Song Yang didn't react much when he saw the old white men around him, and didn't seem to care much, and a few frowned.

   Upon seeing this, Adrian immediately changed the subject and began to introduce the surrounding people to Song Yang. Song Yang had a vague understanding of this scene.

  Although Song Yang didn't pay much attention to the situation in America before, he still knew some basics.

   Texas is still the base of the American Elephant Party. There are a large number of energy, oil, gas, military and other groups gathered here, all of which are natural supporters of the Elephant Party.

   As for emerging industries such as the Internet and technology, Wall Street, Hollywood, etc. mostly support the Donkey Party.

   This is not set in stone. Adrian obviously wants to make some noise, such as supporting the development of emerging industries in Houston, but it seems that these energy giants are not very interested in the Internet.

   "This is Kenneth, you should have met, founder and CEO of Enron Energy!" Adrian pointed to Kenneth, who was teasing him just now, and introduced Song Yang.

Song Yang was stunned when he heard An Zhan. This name is very famous. He has single-handedly turned over several Fortune 500 companies including WorldCom, and also brought Anxinda, one of the top five accounting firms, to the Take the opportunity to pull black from the accounting industry.

   "Song?!"

Adrian saw Song Yang and was stunned when he heard the names of Kenneth and An Ran. Kenneth also cast a curious look at Song Yang. He wondered how Song Yang would be like this after hearing his name. kind of reaction.

  Song Yang came back to his senses and looked at Kenneth in front of him. At this time, Kenneth was still a big boss. He was one of the biggest sponsors of the elephant party.

   "I heard the story of President Kenneth, but I didn't expect to see him today. Enron is the most legendary company I have ever seen. It only took 20 years to become the best energy company in the world!"

  Song Yang said to Kenneth, as if he was "shocked" to meet the legendary founder.

Hearing this, Kenneth did not doubt anything else, patted Song Yang's shoulder with a smile, and regarded Song Yang's shock as his "admiration", Kenneth said with a smile, "Enron is not good enough, it is not The world's No. 1 energy company, when Enron becomes the world's No. 1 energy company, I hope to hear from you again, Song!"

   Kenneth said his ambition was to make Enron the number one in the global energy market.

   "This is the director of United Energy Corporation and the Texas partner of Cheniere Energy..."

Adrian introduced the people around him to Xiang Songyang. They were basically oil, natural gas, trade and shipping companies, etc. These are the most important industries in Houston and Texas. This group of people is gone, and without the support of this group of people, no one will be able to hold the seat of governor.

   However, when the last person was introduced, it attracted Song Yang's attention again, "This is David Duncan, the senior partner of Arthur Andersen, and the president of Arthur Andersen Houston Office!"

   "Song, have you heard of me?" David Duncan, holding a wine glass, noticed Song Yang's expression and asked Song Yang.

  Song Yang didn't know much about David Duncan, but he didn't have to think about it to know that An Ran was able to make such a big noise without the cover of David Duncan. This kind of person is usually used as a scapegoat in the end.

   "Who hasn't heard the name of Arthur Andersen Accounting Firm!" Song Yang replied, anyway, he made up his mind that he would never have anything to do with this guy, or he might suffer in a few years.

   "Andersen is willing to serve any customer, if you have any financial need, give me a call!"

David Duncan handed Song Yang a business card, which was considered an olive branch. In places like Texas where there are many giant companies, David Duncan and Arthur Andersen have no shortage of customers and are willing to do finance for Song Yang and Double Click Company. Review, for David Duncan, is to put down the figure.

  Song Yang nodded, "I will consider it!"

   After Adrian introduced Song Yang to the group, the entire small restaurant gathered together in twos and threes.

  Song Yang also took a plate of food and looked at the small restaurant in front of him. It was a gathering of the most powerful people in Houston. Through these people, one could see that Adrian's skills were extraordinary.

  Greck came to Song Yang's side and cast a questioning look at Song Yang, Song Yang shook his head gently.

  Matthews came to Song Yang at this time and said to Song Yang, "Please wait a moment, Senator Adrian will talk to you later!"

Song Yang nodded, found a place, and began to fill his belly. If he could choose a place to entertain Kenneth and others, the taste of what he made would naturally not be bad. From last night to now, only one fill Song Yang, who was drinking, was already hungry at this time.

Song Yang, who was filling his belly, could hear words such as "running for election" and "running for office" from time to time. It seemed that Josiah was right. Adrian came to Kenneth and others today for the sake of Houston mayor position a few months later.

Seeing the chattering conversation with Adrian, Kenneth and the others in a low voice, Song Yang knew that they must be doing some "deal". Of course, it is definitely not possible that Adrian is doing it alone. Now he is sitting in the seat of the mayor of Houston. The person on the board, and others who have ideas for this position, must be doing all kinds of deals.

   "Song, I kept you waiting!"

   After talking with Kenneth and others, Adrian and Matthews went to Song Yang.

"Song, I'm very happy that a new company like Double-click can appear in my constituency. I hope to be sure that Double-click will not move out of Houston, right?" Adrian still asked Song Yang with a smile, but Song Yang could It felt that Adrian was staring at him at this time.

Matthews also looked at Song Yang with a sullen face. Greg was a little nervous. He hadn't discussed this with Song Yang before, but inside the company, Wesley, Ryan and others had suggested it to Song Yang. , will double-click the company to move to Silicon Valley or New York, threatening that there is the center of America.

   "Double-Click Company was born here, and it will definitely be here forever!" Song Yang looked at Adrian and said.

   Hearing this, Gleek breathed a sigh of relief, and Matthews' expression also relaxed.

   "Song, should the Double Click Company expand? You should need more staff, right?!"
