Chapter 193 People are floating in the rivers and lakes
Seeing Song Yang, Tristan immediately stood up with a smile on his face. With Song Yang in front of him, Tristan could be said to have watched Song Yang step by step until he got to where he is today.
"Professor Albert!"
Song Yang introduced Tristan and Albert. Although Tristan looked like a troll when he was on the TV station, in front of academic colleagues, Tristan was full of pride.
One of them is Song Yang's nominal real mentor, and the other is his spiritual mentor. Albert and Tristan are also looking at each other.
"I've heard about it for a long time, America's youngest economic Nobel Prize candidate!" Tristan, who was still versatile, spoke first and complimented Albert.
Albert smiled bitterly and shook his head. A few years ago, these words would have been a compliment to Albert, but now they are like a shackle.
He has been running for the Nobel Economic Prize for many years, but he is still a "candidate". Albert is really afraid of this status. From now on, he will accompany him until he retires, just like a Japanese writer who wrote "Norwegian Wood"
The author of the book has been running for the Nobel Prize for 15 years and can be called an evergreen candidate for the Nobel Prize...
In a few years, if anyone dares to say this to Albert again, then it will not be flattering, but insulting. Who says Albert is following whom?
As soon as he sat down, Tristan couldn't help but criticize Song Yang, "Song, I saw the Chicago futures investors on Wall Street. Regarding your complaints, your America Telecom has reshuffled the Chicago futures market.
!”
He was saying that what Song Yang did was not authentic, but the smile on Tristan's face almost turned into folds, which showed how happy Tristan was about this matter.
Tristan, who was invited to the University of San Jose today to give a lecture on the Internet landscape in America, could hardly hide the smile on his face at this moment.
"Song, do you remember that Christian Barnard?" Tristan said, suppressing a smile. "That's Song. You saw that episode when I debated with him on the TV station. After you watched that episode, you established
Double Click Company!”
Mentioning this, Tristan feels like he's getting his revenge. Last year, before Tristan unlocked his tongue-in-cheek skills, he was an old professor from the computer science department at New York University. In order to get some research and development funds, he went to the TV station to speak for him.
The Internet is waving the flag so that Silicon Valley funders can invest some money in his laboratory.
As a result, as soon as he came on the TV station, he was criticized by Christian Barnard and couldn't get off the stage. Tristan has never forgotten this incident.
The appearance of Song Yang gave Tristan the confidence. Now Tristan can be said to be America, the most famous scholar in the Internet field. Regardless of whether he is really talented or not, his reputation is definitely the highest!
"That Barnard complained to you Song on the TV station a few days ago that his investment company spent tens of millions to purchase line seats for America Telecom!"
Thinking of Christian Barnard, who was furious on the TV station and kept calling Song Yang and American Telecom "vampires", Tristan felt relieved. The more he cursed, the more Barnard suffered.
When Tristan mentioned Barnard, Song Yang couldn't help but think of the fat man he had seen once on TV. Song Yang had a strange look in his eyes. He wondered if this was considered as giving away someone's life. Barnard provided inspiration for Song Yang to establish Double Click Company.
, and contribute to the revenue of America Telecom. This is simply a model for the times!
Hearing that Song Yang and Tristan were talking about the telecommunications industry, Albert couldn't help but shook his head and said, "The new telecommunications bill implemented by our commander-in-chief is really..."
As one of America's top economists, Albert's ability is beyond doubt, otherwise he would not have become the youngest economics professor at the University of San Jose.
What exactly is the new telecommunications bill? Albert can see through it at a glance. Albert reminded Song Yang, "Now the Internet and telecommunications industries are almost reaching a fever period. All major Internet companies and telecommunications companies are borrowing money to develop.
It’s like mergers and acquisitions, but the frenzy will eventually subside one day!”
Regardless of whether he was a troll or not, Tristan still had a few brushes. Upon hearing what Albert said, Tristan frowned, "Professor Albert, do you think the Internet market will weaken?!"
Tristan is a staunch supporter of the Internet industry. This is his job. He will definitely not pour cold water on the Internet. Tristan’s prediction is that the Internet industry will enter the entire United States and become the largest technology industry in America globally.
Before this, there was no bubble at all, just insignificant "small bubbles" generated during the development process.
Albert shook his head, "I'm just saying that it's possible. It's easy to blow up a bubble, but it's not so easy to maintain it or even blow it up. Even if America's money printing press keeps running, it's not that easy."
Not even there!”
"No," Tristan also shook his head, "Past experience is indeed true, but the Internet is different. It not only consumes funds, it also creates new value. Telecommunications, as the basis of the Internet, must be developed..."
For a while, Albert and Tristan were at loggerheads. Albert believed that bubbles had appeared in the Internet and telecommunications industries, but Tristan didn't think so and believed that the Internet had just begun.
Song Yang was not surprised that Albert had strength, but Tristan made Song Yang feel impressed. He didn't expect that Tristan, apart from his words, had such strength.
"Professor Albert, Professor Tristan!" Song Yang coughed and stopped the two people who were arguing more and more fiercely.
Hearing this, Tristan stopped arguing, picked up the coffee and took a sip, then turned to look at Albert, "Professor Albert, how long do you think the Internet industry bubble you just mentioned can last?
?!"
Tristan has defeated Albert's army. Although there are many divine predictions about this kind of prediction, it turns out that most of them are predictions that are slapped in the face. Once the prediction is wrong, it will take a long time.
His body was beaten for countless years.
Although there are only Song Yang and the others here, Tristan's mouth can make this prediction known to everyone in America, and it even appears in his memoirs.
"No more than five years," Albert frowned, and after thinking for a while, he finally gave his prediction, "If this is a bubble, it will definitely be burst within these five years!"
After hearing this, Tristan stopped being aggressive, and Song Yang could even see a flash of worry on Tristan's face.
Five years seems like a long time. Tristan can also say that Albert is kidding, but in America, the time after five years is too special. At that time, it happens to be the time for the new commander-in-chief to compete.
, once the Xiang Party gains power, I am afraid that it will not care about the life and death of the Internet industry as the current leader's achievements, and may even wish to kill a number of more Internet companies in order to expand the Xiang Party's influence in the core industry.
"I will wait and see. If I lose, I will go on TV in New York in person and admit my mistake to Professor Albert!" Tristan is not a person who cannot afford to lose. Although he feels vaguely not good this time, he is
How can one walk in the world without getting stabbed? Anyway, even if the Internet becomes corrupt, he will not be able to leave. He might as well create an image of a firm supporter of the Internet and gain a group of supporters.
Hearing that Tristan made the bet, Albert couldn't help but smile. He didn't have any dissatisfaction with Tristan, but now he had some appreciation for Tristan. At this age, he can still be so tossing and shameless.
It can still be so thick, which is beyond the reach of Albert.
"Similarly, if within five years, the American Internet industry does not collapse, I mean, more than half of the Internet companies have gone bankrupt, I am willing to teach you Tristan on TV and admit that I made a mistake in my prediction!" Albert
He didn’t take advantage of Tristan, and gave him a definition of what he called the Internet crash, which was that half of America’s Internet companies were dead.
"Song, what do you think?" Tristan suddenly asked Song Yang.
Song Yang was a little embarrassed when he was asked how to answer this thing. Although Song Yang also likes to cut leeks, it is a disaster for Wall Street and those institutions. Song Yang has no ill intentions towards ordinary leeks.
When we advocate the Internet, we will definitely let more leeks fall into the trap.
But if there is a bubble in the Internet, then Song Yang is the enemy of the entire Silicon Valley. If there is instant noodles, then Double Click, which is about to go public, will be questioned by the outside world as to whether it also has a bubble.
"I only stand on the side of the winner. I think Double Click and other companies I invest in that go public in the future will also be winners!"
Song Yang uttered a sentence that made Tristan and Albert burst into laughter. Song Yang didn't care whether other colleagues died or not, as long as the companies Song Yang established and invested in could survive.
But when he came out of the small coffee shop, Song Yang couldn't help but think that he had to start making preparations in advance, otherwise the fun would be ruined one day, and the gain would not be worth the loss.
That night, in an interview with a media outlet, Tristan revealed his bet with Albert. As the most popular word in America today, anything related to the Internet has attracted much attention.
When these words came out of Tristan's mouth, the media immediately began to speculate on the topic of whether there is an Internet bubble in America, and if so, when will it burst? After all, people always praise the Internet, and the audience will watch too much.
I'm tired of it. Occasionally there are opposing voices, which can attract more ratings. Suddenly, the media began to fan the flames.
Arguing about this kind of prediction is basically bullshit, just like predicting an avalanche. It is useless to say more before there is an avalanche, let alone a prediction five years from now.
However, this dispute had no impact on the Internet industry, which was beginning to be in a frenzy. The Nasdaq did not even make a splash and once again hit a new index high for the year.
The same is true for the telecommunications industry. Just when Song Yang left the University of San Jose and headed to the suburbs of San Jose to see the building of the Americas Global Investment Fund under construction, the telecommunications industry suddenly saw two large transactions in one day.
Acquisition!
