Chapter 606 Seeing the Needle
There are many people, and Baumner's design office has invited many designers to join the design team, so it is impossible for the slightest bit of news to leak out.
When it was heard that Song Yang might invest US$100 million or even more to build a mansion, this news inevitably spread in the American design circles.
There are many big designers who want to join the manor design team. Not to mention the salary, his reputation will also be greatly improved by him. With this kind of fame and fortune, who doesn't want to join?
First, the news broke in an American architectural design magazine, and then spread to the Internet and the technology industry, directly detonating public opinion in America!
It's not uncommon for wealthy people in America to resort to all kinds of money-burning methods. After all, in America, it is said that as long as you have enough money, you can buy anything you can't imagine.
But even so, in this day and age, it is rare to spend hundreds of millions of dollars, or even more, on a mansion.
“The head of the San Jose City Land Department confirmed that the land from 94 to 99 located in the southern suburbs of San Jose has been purchased by the Bruno family for US$12.8 million, covering an area of more than 7,000 square feet, which has exceeded the 6,600 square feet of Bill Gates’ Seattle mansion.
Square feet, affected by this news, land prices in the southern suburbs of San Jose have increased by 14%!”
The southern suburbs of San Jose, nearly half an hour's drive from the city center, are still in an undeveloped state, and land in the southern suburbs has not been very valuable in recent years.
But this time, after the news came out that Song Yang was aggressively acquiring land in the southern suburbs, the price of land in the southern suburbs began to skyrocket. Real estate developers from San Jose and California began to rush over to join in the fun.
Many real estate developers have claimed that they will build a wealthy area of luxury homes and villas in the southern suburbs of San Jose, just like Bill Gates did in Seattle. As soon as his mansion was built, a large area of land around it suddenly popped up.
There are countless villas and estates. Think about it, if you are next to the richest man in the world, can the land be worthless?
Song Yang's net worth is not as good as that of Bill Gates, but Song Yang is much younger and his net worth has soared. Who dares to say that Song Yang will not touch the chair under Bill Gates in the future.
Another key point is that as the center of Silicon Valley, San Jose has quite a few wealthy people, but before, it was San Jose who made the money and New York and Los Angeles spent it.
No one knows whether Song Yang's plan to build a century-old mansion in San Jose will cause a butterfly effect and attract the upstarts from Silicon Valley to build luxury homes in San Jose. However, major real estate developers are ready to take a gamble.
For a time, numerous land parcels were enclosed in the southern suburbs of San Jose, which forced the price of land in the southern suburbs to rise a lot.
In a hotel in San Jose, Paulson watched the report on TV and snorted coldly. Pellegrini and several Goldman Sachs executives and assistants beside him did not dare to express their anger loudly.
I watched the serious debate on a local TV station in San Jose about how much investment would be involved in Song Yang’s manor, whether it would surpass Bill Gates’ manor, its design style, etc.
After arriving in San Jose, Paulson, who had been waiting for several days and still had not received Song Yang's "appearance", became increasingly irritable.
"It seems that our Internet genius has really made a lot of money in Southeast Asia!"
Paulson looked at the TV and said with a smile. But listening to Paulson's tone, people familiar with Paulson such as Pellegrini knew clearly that the newly minted King of Wall Street had already been very fond of Song Yang.
It's dissatisfaction.
Originally, Paulson expected that after arriving in San Jose, Song Yang would come to see him immediately, and it would only take a day or two to resolve the PayPal matter.
But God is not as good as man. Paulson never dreamed that someone would dare to let his pigeons go!
It has been almost half a week since he arrived in San Jose, and Song Yang has not even called Paulson on the phone. To say that Song Yang didn't know that he was coming is pure nonsense.
In the past few days, Paulson has not been idle. He has explored the bottom of Silicon Valley. The current "Internet riches" trend in Silicon Valley has attracted geniuses from all over the world to take risks here. After these few days,
Paulson is convinced that Silicon Valley’s ability to create wealth has surpassed that of Wall Street. For a long time in the future, America’s richest man may all be born here!
After Paulson returns, he plans to shift Goldman Sachs' focus to Silicon Valley. Goldman Sachs cannot miss this wave of Internet wealth creation.
As for Song Yang's influence in San Jose, Paulson also knows a thing or two. Compared with Apple, HP, Intel and other established companies in San Jose, Song Yang is still a latecomer.
However, the emergence of companies such as Alcatel Mobile, ICQ, Sierra, Feita and now Paypal has rapidly increased Song Yang's influence in San Jose. Paulson has just set foot in San Jose, and Song Yang may be afraid
Just received the message.
But until now, Song Yang still had no intention of visiting him. Paulson could not think of any other reason except that he was deliberately leaving him alone.
"Besides this, what else is that guy doing?"
Gulong
Paulson pointed to the two groups of red-faced people on the TV who were arguing about Song Yang's mansion, and asked Pellegrini.
Song Yang suddenly made a big news. Paulson knew this method very well. He used this news to attract away the public opinion that had been cutting leeks on Song Yang some time ago.
This trick is not very clever, but it does work. Paulson has heard that the American media complained about Song Yang before, and it was Grandet from the Houston farmer. After this time, no one will dare to say that again.
Song Yang.
Pellegrini had been staring at Song Yang. After hearing what Paulson said, he immediately said, "Bruno Song just met with Satomi Haru, the president of Nippon Sammy Company, to raise money for Samy."
A $1.7 billion loan!"
"Is it the Japanese marble house project?" Paulson pondered for a moment and said.
Paulson also heard about the incident involving Sierra and Sammy Corporation, which was tinkering with billiard rooms in Japan. The media did not report much on this matter, but Goldman Sachs was aware of it.
But Paulson didn't want to cause trouble for Song Yang in this matter. That would be too offending. There are too many people involved in this project. Even Paulson didn't want Goldman Sachs to mess with it.
All sexy.
When he knew that Song Yang was going to get a share of the Japanese pinball room, Paulson had to admit that Song Yang was brave enough to dare to walk a tightrope, but he also had to admit that this move could completely change the situation.
Song Yang’s situation in America.
Snow Mountain's Japanese marble parlor project has already involved the American Elephant Party, the Donkey Party, members of Congress on Capitol Hill, and too many people from the Federal Foreign Affairs Committee. Snow Mountain Japan's Benz Company is equivalent to these powerful forces.
Character money bag.
Once the Snow Mountain Japanese Benzene Company really starts to pay dividends, the American congressmen who receive the dividends, whether they are from the Elephant Party or the Donkey Party, will naturally be in the same boat as Song Yang, not to mention that they will definitely support Song Yang.
, at least for the sake of beauty, Song Yang will not be troubled!
But once it failed, Paulson didn't dare to think about the consequences. Sammy was definitely dead, Satomi couldn't bear to eat and had to walk around. As for Song Yang, the best result was to give a lot of money and kill those congressmen.
The beautiful swords thrown in will be returned in full.
Risks and benefits go hand in hand. Once the Snow Mountain Japanese Benzene Company's billiard room plan is completed, Song Yang will have countless supporters in America. For example, when Double Tap was sued last year, Song Yang was surrounded by negative news, etc.
It may not even happen, and of course the price of failure is there.
Paulson had no intention of tampering with the Sierra Nippon Benzene Company. Not only Goldman Sachs, but other Wall Street giants also turned a blind eye. If they really messed up this project, Song Yang was unlucky. They also
It's not much better. It offends people so much. Paulson would not have resorted to these methods if he hadn't reached the point where he turned against him and refused to recognize him.
While Paulson was still talking to Pellegrini, the phone call suddenly came to his mind. After Pellegrini got through, he looked relieved.
"President Paulson, President of Paypal Aaron Swartz, want to visit you!"
When he heard that Paypal finally sent someone to see him, Paulson's expression finally softened. He took action personally this time. If he couldn't even see Paypal, it would probably become a joke on Wall Street.
Even if he can regain his position in the future, he still lost his face. Now that Paypal is on the doorstep, Paulson can finally save his face.
"Tell Paypal that if you want to talk, let the man named Aaron come with Song Yang!" Paulson said angrily, preparing to give Song Yang a blow.
"Song, do you really want to build a manor like Bill Gates?"
As soon as Song Yang answered the phone, there was a scream from Jenny, and then she asked Song Yang a barrage of questions.
Rubbing his sore ears from the shock, Song Yang said into the phone, "I'm not sure yet. If the design office can come up with a qualified drawing, then construction should be able to start this year..."
When she heard this, Jenny screamed again. Jenny, who was busy filming the last movie of The Matrix, had also just seen the media reports. This matter had spread throughout Hollywood and became the focus of Los Angeles.
As Song Yangming's official girlfriend, Jenny was also on the set, and was visited by many media and reporters. Some media asked Jenny what she thought of the manor, and some asked in a roundabout way, who would be the mistress of Century Manor in San Jose?
who?!
In the entertainment industry, as soon as the news about Song Yang's mansion came out, it immediately became the focus, and various entertainment media wanted to gain some attention.
"Song, in one month, all my scenes will be filmed, and I will return to San Jose immediately..."
