Chapter 221: Misfortunes lead to the east
Two commentators from the New York TV station joked to the audience in front of the TV that they were not sure whether Song Yang was a baseball genius, but no one doubted that Song Yang was the richest man in the baseball industry.
The two commentators joked about Song Yang's net worth. Even among the wealthy Americans who treat baseball teams as toys, Song Yang's current net worth is already quite high.
"Bruno Song is indeed from the baseball industry, and his baseball level is quite good!"
Joking aside, the two commentators didn't want to lose their jobs. Song Yang's baseball level was only one pitch, and even when the Dodgers let the team slip, it could be seen that it was a hammer. However, the two commentators still praised Song Yang and did not let Song Yang
Yang's "genius baseball player" persona has collapsed.
Not only the commentators from the New York TV station, but also the TV stations from Los Angeles, Houston, Chicago and other places that commented on this game were all merciless and did not dare to talk about Song Yang's baseball skills. Is he a scumbag? At least the action just now was considered standard.
As for the actual combat level, it's up to the beholder to see the wisdom.
It’s hard to say how good Song Yang’s baseball skills are, but his net worth is like crazy, rising non-stop. As the date of Double Click’s listing approaches, more media begin to discuss Song Yang’s net worth. Some media even think that,
Today, Song Yang's net worth has reached the top of the list of America's 100 richest people.
But no matter how much, Song Yang is now the representative figure standing at the forefront of the Internet.
Such a person, who is on the list of America's 100 richest people, comes to play ball for the audience of Major League Baseball in person. It has been rare for many years to see him, so what kind of bicycle does he need?!
After a few words, the New York TV station's commentator suddenly broke the news, "Before the game started, I heard a piece of news that the O'Malley family, which owns the Los Angeles Dodgers, is looking to sell the Dodgers. As we all know,
Bruno Song has always been very interested in the baseball industry!"
As soon as this shocking news came out, it instantly attracted countless TV viewers. The two commentators seemed to have said nothing, but at the same time they seemed to have.
The O'Malley family is selling the Los Angeles Dodgers, and Song Yang happens to be in Los Angeles at this moment. Coupled with Song Yang's net worth, people can't help but wonder whether the Dodgers, a giant, is going to change.
In recent years, the Los Angeles Dodgers, once a giant in Major League Baseball, have not been having a good time. Even the Houston Astros, who they faced today, have been defeated repeatedly. There are rumors that the O'Malley family is selling the Dodgers.
, not once or twice.
It is not surprising that the news came out again this time. On the contrary, many people believed it. After all, at Song Yang's age, it is easy to be impulsive when he is young and has a lot of money. For the so-called interest, he bought a car.
A professional team is not impossible!
The New York TV station had to commentate. After showing the explosive news, he started commentating on the game again, as if what he just said was not his.
At this time, such news was suddenly released. Naturally, this explanation could not be without aim. Someone must have instructed him to reveal the explosive information that the Dodgers were preparing to sell. It was just that Song Yang was involved by the way.
In fact, there is a consortium in New York that wants to move the Dodgers back to Brooklyn, New York. However, the O'Malley family has some problems with New York and has a very cold response to New York buyers.
Even though the New York Consortium's bid was actually higher than that of Murdoch of News Corp., the O'Malley family was still flirting with Murdoch, which naturally made the New York Consortium dissatisfied.
Only then did he take advantage of today's opportunity to break the news that the Dodgers were looking for a buyer, and dragging Song Yang into it was actually to muddy the waters.
But at this moment, the news began to spread like the wind. Even the local sports channels in Los Angeles began to discuss the possibility of the Dodgers being sold after receiving the news.
On the field, Song Yang, who was about to leave the field, suddenly heard a burst of boos, and even a voice saying "The Dodgers will never leave Los Angeles" made Song Yang a little confused. He was just here to advertise for Double Click Company. Why?
Angry Dodgers fans.
This move made Song Yang a little dissatisfied. Even if he wanted to buy a baseball team, Song Yang would only buy two teams. One is the Astros baseball team in Houston, and the other is the New York Yankees. As for Los Angeles
The Dodgers are not in Song Yang's consideration at all.
"Song, there is some misunderstanding here!"
In the face of overwhelming boos, Peter O'Malley, the current second-generation head of the Dodgers, the son of Walter O'Malley Sr., and the current president of the Dodgers, who accompanied Song Yang today, looked towards him with an embarrassed look.
Song Yang said, at this time, it was revealed that he was planning to sell the team, and he would be damned if he didn't get criticized.
Glancing at the fans around him, Song Yang could only sigh. Double-click's listing was really troubled. He was targeted when it was listed. When it was about to go public, Song Yang advertised for Double-click, but he still lied about it. This
Find someone to reason with.
Without staying on the court for long, Song Yang and Peter O'Malley left the field separately during midfield. Song Yang did not want to be booed again, while Peter O'Malley wanted to deal with the mess.
However, Song Yang's departure did not stop the media from fanning the flames. Rumors began to spread that Song Yang had met with Peter O'Malley and wanted to acquire the Dodgers.
Even though Song Yang and the O'Malley family claimed that they had not discussed the acquisition of the Dodgers, no one believed them.
If Song Yang and the O'Malley family are still a little depressed, then Murdoch, who is preparing to spend real money to buy the Dodgers to build his own sports empire, is really scolding.
After receiving the news, the Los Angeles City Department, under the protests of the fans, some congressmen directly came forward and stated that they would never let the Dodgers leave Los Angeles, and directly asked the O'Malley family to suspend the sale of the Dodgers!
The Los Angeles congressmen don't care about the Dodgers, who have suffered miserably in the past two years. For two consecutive years, the Dodgers have been named "MLB's least profitable team" by Forbes. You can imagine how unprofitable they are.
, it was such a loss that the O'Malley family thought of selling it.
As a result, a group of local congressmen in Los Angeles, faced with the protests of Dodgers fans, were naturally happy to be "good guys" and directly terminated the sale of the Dodgers. These congressmen need the fans' votes and support, and they don't want anything else.
It doesn't matter whether the O'Malley family dies or not, as long as they can get votes and gain fame.
Moreover, the next time the O'Malley family wants to sell the Dodgers, they must first get the Los Angeles city councilors to agree to the sale. If they don't pay a large sponsorship fee, they will definitely not be able to sell it.
.
The most uncomfortable thing is that Murdoch is about to reach an acquisition agreement with the O'Malley family. Murdoch, who is invincible in the media industry, has always been a little uncomfortable in the sports industry.
Murdoch wanted to buy Manchester United, but was directly rejected by the British government. He wanted to buy French TV, but was also kicked out. Now he wants to buy the Dodgers, but he is actually being interfered with...
Song Yang didn't have time to pay attention to the quarrel between the Dodgers, the O'Malley family, Murdoch and News Corporation. This time he came to Los Angeles, in addition to advertising for Double Click, he also had to
Meet someone.
In a hotel in Los Angeles, Song Yang saw the arrival of a tall, thin man wearing glasses.
"Carmack!" Song Yang stretched out his hand towards the man. The man in front of him was John Carmack. He is regarded by countless people in the gaming industry as a godfather figure, the father of 3D games, the father of fps, the god of programmers and other titles.
, are all the halo of Carmack.
In this era of technological giants emerging one after another, Carmack is definitely a figure who can be ranked high.
However, Carmack is not very old. He is just 26 years old this year and has just entered his peak period, but he is already a being that many programmers desire but cannot reach. In this era, there are indeed geniuses!
"Song!"
Carmack shook hands with Song Yang, but the talented programmer had a slightly dejected look on his face at this time.
"I'm glad you came, Carmack!" Song Yang asked the hotel staff to give Carmack a cup of coffee and said to him.
John Carmack looked at Song Yang in front of him, sighed, and asked Song Yang, "Why id software company? If it's just for the engine of "Thor's Quake", I can license it to Xueleshan!"
After icq proposed to acquire id Game Company, this game company that had enjoyed great success a few years ago was completely disrupted.
Carmack and the founders were quarreling over whether or not to sell id Games Company. id Games Company was not a team company, but more the product of a group of geniuses working together on their own.
Just like the "Quake" engine, Carmack developed it alone. With the Quake engine, another founder will build levels, models, game bosses, etc. Several id founders,
Almost all are independent of each other, which makes the games produced by id full of personality. Almost every level in the game has a different style, because the developers of each level are independent.
But a few years later, when Carmack and several other founders began to have their own names, became big figures in the industry, and wanted to launch their own style of games, coupled with Carmack's obsession with technology, and other
The concepts of several founders have gone in opposite directions.
The entire id game company is actually like a powder keg. Even without the appearance of Xueleshan, it would have exploded in a short time, and the founders would fall apart. It's just that Xueleshan has moved the time forward a little.
Carmack came to meet with Song Yang on behalf of id Game Company. In fact, Carmack did not want to sell id Game Company, but Romero and other founders wanted to start over or build their own business.
