Song Yang and Jeff Skilling were both sizing each other up. Jeff was a middle-aged white man in his forties, with a look of rebelliousness and pride visible to the naked eye.

Jeff also has the qualifications to be proud of. He graduated from Harvard with straight A's. In the same Harvard class, from mentors to classmates, when it comes to who is the smartest person at Harvard, Jeff has always chosen him over him. After graduation, he entered

McKinsey, the top consulting firm in America, then joined forces with Kenneth to push Enron to where it is today.

It can be said that Enron today is so ambitious and full of desire for expansion. It is basically brought about by Jeff. He is also the person Kenneth trusts most and is recognized as the second person in Enron. If Kenneth is the leader, then

Jeff was the strategist, and Enron's most important decisions were driven by him.

"Oh, of course I've heard of it, Houston's technological genius, I hope you won't disappoint me today!" Jeff looked at Song Yang carefully, then said with a smile.

The people present today were basically Enron's shareholders, directors, and senior executives. Song Yang, who was sitting at the end of the conference room, looked at the people in the conference room. They were basically all people with prominent status.

After the meeting began, Jeff Skilling took the lead and struck out very forcefully, "Enron must make changes, otherwise it will fall to the ground like an old elephant like Exxon Mobil, and eventually turn into decay!"

As soon as Jeff came up, he pointed his gun at Mobil Energy, his archenemy. "Enron wants to make changes. We can't just be in the natural gas pipeline business. Enron wants to become the helmsman of the energy industry. We need to formulate new rules for the energy industry."

, let the chariot of Enron start again and break those old rules!"

Jeff Skilling made no secret of his ambition to surpass Exxon Mobil and other competitors. Everyone in the conference room, except Song Yang, seemed to agree with Jeff's theory and believed that ExxonMobil

Companies such as Enron represented the old economy, while Enron was the new economy that was to replace them.

"Enron wants to be different from other natural gas companies. We want to build the world's first energy financial platform to be a trader and wholesaler in the energy industry, and even other derivatives in oil, electricity, coal, steel and any other industry.

All can be traded on the "Enron Online" website!"

When Jeff Skilling's words fell, the entire conference room immediately became noisy. Regarding Jeff's proposal, all Enron shareholders and directors were both excited and a little panicked. According to Jeff's plan, this platform

The money spent is not a penny.

However, looking at Kenneth, who sat firmly on the Diaoyutai and allowed Jeff to promote this plan, all Enron directors knew that this matter must have been approved by Kenneth.

"President Kenneth, if we launch the Enron online website, we may need to invest too much money, and the benefits are uncertain!" A representative from a Wall Street investment bank said with concern.

It is not that easy to trade futures. The uncertainty is too high. It is not comfortable to stick to natural gas pipelines and make huge profits. Now Enron's pipelines transport 20% of energy to the entire America. Raising this ratio to 50% will not be good.

??!

But Kenneth had obviously reached an agreement with Jeff. After Jeff mentioned this project to him, Kenneth already looked down upon the small and slow-moving pipeline business.

Kenneth has agreed with Jeff to use Wall Street methods to run Enron. Kenneth hopes to make Enron surpass Mobil and other established energy giants in the shortest possible time and make Enron become an investment bank in the energy industry. There is no doubt that this is a path.

The fastest way.

"If all goes well with the plan, and Enron can become the largest trader in the global energy industry, Enron's revenue will exceed US$100 billion by 1998!" Kenneth said while looking at the people in the conference room.

These words caused a complete stir in the entire conference room. In the next three years, the revenue will exceed 100 billion, which is considered to be an elephant dancing for Enron's size.

Faced with this temptation, even the directors of Enron, who were no longer worried about the risks, did not stop it at this time. Although there were still objections, it was obvious that they could no longer prevent the resolution from being passed.

Song Yang sat in the back, a little bored. He had already understood that he was pulled over by Kenneth today. In fact, he almost acted as a tool man and told these Enron directors that Double Click Company would provide technical support for the "Enron Online" website, which could

Get the website online smoothly and so on.

"Song, what do you think? You are a genius in the technology industry, and the Internet is your territory!"

At this time, Kenneth suddenly named Song Yang, which made Song Yang stunned for a moment. Everyone in the conference room also looked at Song Yang.

"Jeff's plan is very clever. Enron Online will definitely become the world's largest energy trading website, which is equivalent to recreating Enron..." After saying this, Song Yang immediately felt that something was wrong in the atmosphere in the conference room, and he wished he could do it for himself.

This is a fucking slogan for Enron.

The conference room was slightly quiet for a few seconds, and then someone started to applaud. The first person to applaud was Jeff Skilling, and then the entire conference room burst into applause.

"Rebuild Enron, I like this slogan," Jeff said sideways to Kenneth, "I suddenly feel that this young man is very good!"

Kenneth could also imagine how big an impact it would have when the slogan "Rebuild Enron" was launched, enough to make Enron's new project famous in one fell swoop.

"I have said before, he is a genius in the Internet industry, and Joe Tus has approached him twice in a row!" Kenneth was a little proud of his vision.

Jeff Skilling is also somewhat interested in Song Yang. He likes to make friends with geniuses and those unbridled ideas. For this reason, almost all of his staff are recruited from prestigious schools such as Harvard, University of Chicago, and West Point.

Song Yang didn't want to take such a big blame for Enron, "I think Enron Online should cooperate with the American Securities and Exchange Commission, the Chicago Board of Trade, etc..."

This is to ask Enron to seek endorsement from America's department. Originally, Jeff wanted to turn Enron Online into a private company website. People who enter the platform can only trade with Enron. This makes it easier for Enron to do things secretly. To put it bluntly,

Enron was both a seller and a buyer, and those people could only buy and sell with Enron.

"I think it should be like this. If we bring over the American Securities and Exchange Commission, it will be a good thing for Enron Online..." These directors are all smart people. Song Yangyi said that they didn't understand anything and asked the American Securities and Exchange Commission to come over. Although

There is a little more control, but if something goes wrong, someone will take the blame for them.

Jeff Skilling and Kenneth looked at each other. This was a bit beyond their expectations, but it was not a big deal. After the Enron online website was built, Enron would definitely be the largest trader in the market, but when it was operating, it would be

Just some trouble.

"Enron Online should be able to get the endorsement from the American Securities and Exchange Commission!"

Jeff looked at Kenneth and said seriously, which caused a burst of laughter in the conference room, as if he heard a joke. For other companies, it may be extremely difficult to obtain a license, but for Enron, it is not at all

question.

Although Kenneth and An Ran are major financial backers of the Elephant Party, it does not mean that they have no connections in the Donkey Party. Kenneth has also invested a lot of money in the commander-in-chief of the Donkey Party. This commander-in-chief is here.

During his stay in Texas, it was Kenneth who accompanied him while playing golf. In addition to a group of senior men on Capitol Hill, more than 260 members of Congress had received support from Enron.

"We decided to invite Double Click Company to be responsible for the development and technical support of the Enron Online website. In addition, Double Click Company will also be responsible for future technology suppliers!"

At the end of the meeting, Kenneth said to everyone in the conference room. A group of Enron directors also showed clear expressions. This was basically reciprocating a favor. From now on, Double Click Company will receive hundreds or even thousands from the Enron online website every year.

Everyone in the conference room understood the "technical service fee" of ten thousand dollars, but they didn't know why Kenneth supported Song Yang in this way.

After the meeting, both Kenneth and Jeff were in a good mood. Kenneth invited Song Yang to his huge office with quite luxurious decoration.

After handing Song Yang a glass of wine, Kenneth and Jeff raised their glasses, "Here's to building another Enron!"

After a glass of wine, Kenneth said to Song Yang, "Song, Double Click Company, as the technical consultant of Enron Online, you have to help Enron complete the website development and launch it as soon as possible!"

"Kenneth, when you go to Washington, you just happen to deal with the telecommunications business. Time is running out!" Jeff said to Kenneth.

"Telecommunications business, Enron wants to enter the telecommunications business?" Song Yang, who was sitting aside, couldn't help but said.

Kenneth and Jeff glanced at Song Yang. Jeff looked at Kenneth, saw the latter nodded, and then said to Song Yang, "It's okay to tell Song Yang. The commander-in-chief will tell you at the beginning of next year at the latest."

With the introduction of the new Telecommunications Act, the Federal Communications Commission will unlock restrictions on the telecommunications and media industries!"

This news was no secret to people like Kenneth, but for Song Yang, it was the first time he heard it, and he couldn't help but feel a panic in his heart.

In the past, Song Yang might not have known what this meant, but now Song Yang understood that the entire communications and media industry structure in America, which had been maintained for nearly half a century, was about to undergo tremendous changes!

However, when he heard the news in advance, Song Yang could only sigh slightly. This is an opportunity that America's telecommunications industry will no longer have in the next thirty years. Once it is missed in the past few years, the telecommunications and media industries will appear again.

In a situation where there are several giants, latecomers have no chance to enter the market.

Giants like Enron obviously want to take advantage of the opportunity to obtain a telecommunications license and then enter the telecommunications and media industries.

However, with Song Yang's current wealth, it is really beyond his means to enter the gluttonous feast of the telecommunications and media industry next year.
Chapter completed!
