Chapter 84 No distinction
Marcus looked up at Song Yang in front of him, and he had already raised Song Yang's level to the highest level in his mind. No, looking at Song Yang's age, Marcus felt that this might be the future of his cooperation over the years.
Perhaps there is no one with the highest net worth!
Marcus didn’t know how big a stir these financial documents would cause if they were spread out, especially the American Telecom project. Marcus had never heard of it at all, but it was a big project worth 300 million U.S. dollars.
The project is really amazing.
"Song," Marcus put down the financial documents, "To be honest, these are beyond my expectations. It will take a while to clarify these financial documents. Maybe you should come to me earlier to avoid a lot of trouble!"
Marcus said to Song Yang, feeling that Song Yang had spent some money that was not worth it, not to mention sports cars and villas, but also Double Click Company, American Telecom, etc. If Marcus were to operate it, he would not only be able to avoid taxes
, you can also get some financial subsidies from Texas and other places through operations.
"So, I'm here to see you Marcus today!"
Song Yang said to Marcus, "I hope you can help me deal with these financial problems. Not only these, but in the future, the financial problems of Double Click Company, American Telecom, Hotmail, ICQ and other companies may also require you to be a consultant!"
"
Marcus' calm heart began to waver at this moment. As a private financial consultant, you can only earn hundreds of thousands of dollars a year at most, but as a company's financial consultant, it is different. The larger the financial scale you handle, the more you can earn.
The salary you get is higher.
Like America Telecom's financial consultant, if America Telecom can sell the Chicago to New York line to Wall Street next year after it is completed, it will be a financial investment worth billions of dollars. If Marcus is to handle it, the salary will be at least
Start with a million dollars!
"Song, I will take care of these finances!" Marcus Bird showed his attitude and was willing to take over the role of Song Yang's private accounting and financial consultant.
Hearing that Marcus was willing to take over, Song Yang negotiated his contract with Marcus. Marcus did not ask for a sky-high price. On the contrary, the asking price was a bit "low."
Marcus requested that the annual financial advisory fees, that is, the fees for helping Song Yang declare taxes, deal with financial issues, tax avoidance, etc., only cost $240,000. The price seems not low now, but compared to other big accountants
, and considering Song Yang’s possible future worth, this is really not too high.
But Marcus also has other requirements, which is to deal with issues such as Song Yang's investment. He needs additional expenses. For example, projects like American Telecom, or acquisitions, investments, etc., he needs additional expenses.
Song Yang thought for a moment, then stretched out his hand to Marcus, agreeing to his request.
If nothing else, the hotmail mailbox Song Yang is looking for a financial owner to take over this year. When the time comes, a large amount of funds will be involved, which will need to be handled by Marcus.
In addition, next year's America Telecom will also need Marcus to come forward when dealing with Wall Street. Even if there is a professional accounting firm, it needs to have one of its own to keep an eye on it. Otherwise, if it encounters scammers like Andersen,
, it’s too late to cry...
Marcus became Song Yang's personal accountant. If nothing else, Song Yang's finances will pass through Marcus's hands for many years to come. In a sense, he may know Song Yang better than the Bruno family.
How much is Yang worth!
"Are you also managing the finances of the San Francisco Giants baseball team?" Song Yang asked Marcus when he signed the agreement.
It would be a bit taboo if someone else came to ask for information about Marcus's other employer, but in the future he would be tied to Song Yang, and even at special moments, he would have to take some of the blame for Song Yang.
So Marcus just chuckled when he heard this.
Marcus, who had done his homework, knew that Song Yang had advertised an inspirational story about a genius baseball player who unexpectedly fell and entered the Internet industry to get back up again. Marcus didn't know whether this was true or not, but Song Yang was born in a baseball team, so he was sure.
It's true.
Marcus didn't find it strange that Song Yang asked about the San Francisco Giants baseball team, "If, Song, you want to become a minority shareholder of the Giants, I can help with the operation!"
Many rich Americans who like sports will buy shares in some teams and become small owners. They often go to the stadium to watch the games and have close contact with the team stars. The teams also like to use those celebrities to increase their popularity.
As for those with higher net worth, like Microsoft's Paul Allen, he bought two NBA teams, the Trail Blazers and the rugby team, the Seahawks, to use as large toys. Marcus also thought that Song Yang was just trying to fool around.
A Giants team gets a minority shareholder or something like that.
"No," Song Yang looked at Marcus and said, repeating what he had said to Gallo before, "If I want to enter a baseball club, I will buy the New York Yankees!"
Marcus smiled and shook his head, "Song, if San Francisco fans hear this, I'm afraid they won't be so happy!"
As for Song Yang’s intention to buy the New York Yankees, Marcus only thought that Song Yang was joking and didn’t pay much attention to it. Let’s not talk about whether the owner of the Yankees, George Steinbrenner, would sell it or not.
Even if Yang's entire net worth is cashed out, he probably won't be able to afford the Yankees.
Song Yang just laughed and didn't explain much, but if there is a chance, Song Yang will definitely try and win the title for the most proud team in the Big Apple City!
"Marcus, I need you to handle these financial issues as soon as possible and then file them with the federal tax authorities. I don't want to be targeted by the IRS!"
Song Yang didn't want to be offended by those crazy dogs from the IRS. The slightest loophole might be used to make a big fuss by those people.
"In addition, next, I need you to deal with some financial issues. You need to keep an eye on America Telecom's finances. Hotmail mailboxes may also undergo some investment or acquisition or other equity changes this year!"
Hearing this, Marcus' eyes widened. Song Yang was revealing some information to him so that Marcus could prepare early.
Even if you are not an Internet professional, in the past few days, media outlets of all sizes in San Francisco and Silicon Valley have been reporting on hotmail mailbox news overwhelmingly.
Through these reports, Marcus can also think about the potential of hotmail mailboxes, but now he hears that Song Yang has vague thoughts about selling hotmail mailboxes. If this comes true, Marcus can predict that this will probably be a shocking deal.
.
But after being slightly surprised, Marcus quickly regained his composure, "Don't worry Song, there won't be any problems with me here!"
Marcus is indeed dedicated. After signing the agreement with Song Yang, he immediately started to handle the finances and used various methods to avoid taxes as much as possible for Song Yang. The role of the Bruno Foundation in Marcus' hands can be easily described.
Play with flowers.
After coming out of icq's San Jose office building, Song Yang did not rush to report to the University of San Jose, but drove to Fortinet Company.
The office building of icq is not far from Feita Company. It only took more than half an hour's drive, and Song Yang rushed to Feita Company's office.
After entering Fortinet Company, I immediately felt that it was different from other places, because almost all Asian faces here, and the voices coming from the office were all in Chinese. This is almost the first all-Chinese company in Silicon Valley!
Fortinet's office is not large in scale and is divided into two parts, a software development office and a hardware department. Fortinet is developing software that is unprecedented in the network security industry. Hardware and the Internet are three-in-one, so it is natural to develop hardware products.
Seeing Song Yang coming in, a young man in his twenties wearing glasses, looked at Song Yang and felt vaguely familiar, and asked Song Yang doubtfully, "Who are you?"
Song Yang said in Chinese, "I'm looking for Xie Qing!"
As soon as he heard Song Yang's accent, the office suddenly became noisy again. Sitting in the office, a tall, dark-skinned man spoke in a Sichuan accent and shouted to the small office inside, "Lao Xie, someone is looking for you."
!”
"This way, please." The young man smiled apologetically at Song Yang and led Song Yang towards Xie Qing's office.
After looking at Song Yang for a few times, when he was about to enter Xie Qing's office, the young man said rather distressedly, "I feel like you look familiar, as if I've seen you somewhere."
"Song Yang," Song Yang smiled kindly at the young man, "Maybe you have seen another name reported in the media, Bruno Song!"
After speaking, Song Yang nodded towards him, and then entered Xie Qing's office, leaving only the stunned young man. The whole office was also silent. The person who called Xie Qing just now also looked dumb at this moment.
The founder of Double Click Company, a genius of the Internet, and now also the founder of Hotmail, the founder of the Internet viral marketing concept, and of course, the largest investor of Feita Company has now appeared in their presence.
before!
Not to mention Song Yang's influence among Chinese Americans, he definitely has unparalleled influence among yellow-skinned people working in Silicon Valley and the Internet.
Maybe other people in Silicon Valley want to be the next Bill Gates, or the next Marc Andreessen, but for the yellow-skinned people working here, they definitely want to be the second Song Yang, not anything else.
people.
Xie Qing, who was busy in the office, was stunned when he suddenly saw Song Yang coming in. Then he stood up hurriedly, "Boss Song, why didn't you tell me in advance that you were here?"
Looking at the messy office, Xie Qing looked embarrassed and said, "I made you laugh!"
Song Yang waved his hand, found a chair from the pile of documents, and sat down casually, "It's all here. You have to go to Yahoo's previous office, and of course Double Click's small office when the company was first established.
Chapter completed!
