Silicon Valley
Chapter 216
"Super God Emperor" alliance leader is powerful, this book adds another alliance leader!!!
Where there is a 100% success rate, Henry will not let it become 90%!
West German publishing house can get novel resources, but if you want to import a large amount of traffic, you have to find other ways. Undoubtedly, the best way is to introduce the huge traffic of ICQ chat software!!!
The West German publishing house makes a website here, ICQ makes an interface there, and adds the function of "ireader novel" to the software interface! Click "ireader novels", you can enter the ireader novels website!
However, the best way to achieve such intimate cooperation is for both parties to become partners and establish ireader novel website together, with each holding a part of the shares!
So Henry went to ICQ again.
To ICQ company, Henry and Tian Shuai said what he meant.
When Tian Shuai heard that Henry had finished, his eyes lit up and he immediately agreed to come down!
No matter whether the ireader novel website can make money or not, ICQ alone can rely on ireader to provide novel reading services for the majority of ICQ users, so as to consolidate its position and expand its brand influence. It is worth a lot of investment!!!
"Chairman, I think it''s OK. ICQ is very willing to cooperate with West German publishing house!" Tian Shuai nodded to Henry and said excitedly, "after the invention of writing, human beings can''t do without reading. If the price of reading a book on the Internet is several times cheaper than that of physical books, I think it will be very popular! Therefore, the establishment of a fee novel website, it really works! Once this novel website grows, ICQ company will be able to make a lot of profits from it
"Well, yes, you''re right!" Henry nodded with a smile, then changed the subject and said: "however, I want you to set up the ireader novel website not only for these purposes, but also for a deeper meaning!"
Henry said slowly: "after the development of ireader novel website, it will not only be limited to novels, but also involved in the adaptation of novels, comics, books, film and television, etc. I want to make ireader novel website the largest IP incubation base in the world!"
When I heard this, I felt warm and passionate!
But what does IP mean? Doesn''t it look like the IP address in the Internet?
Tian Shuai looks at Henry and asks his doubts.
"Chairman, I don''t know what this IP means."
"IP is intellectual property!" Henry explained, "the goal of ireader is to make intellectual property rights bigger and stronger, so that it can develop around IP, so as to achieve huge benefits and influence! For example, I wrote the novel "Jurassic Park", because it''s hot, so IP is very valuable, the film companies are scrambling to adapt the film! "
Tian Shuai nodded thoughtfully and said: "that is to say, if we run a novel well and make it famous, then we can make money by all kinds of copyrights when we become famous!"
"Yes, that''s it!"
"I understand..." Tian Shuai looked at the young man who was several years younger than him, and he was filled with emotion. Even though I have developed instant chat software, served as CEO of ICQ company, and was rated as one of the top ten outstanding young people in the world by time magazine, I have to say I admire my boss Henry!
Henry then asked about the development of ICQ game platform, virtual community and chess and card games.
Tian Shuai told Henry that the development of the game platform will be adjusted according to the chess and card games, so the development of the game platform will be a step slower than the game. At present, the development speed of chess and card games is not very fast. Considering the playability, interactivity and interface design of the game, ICQ company''s idea is to keep improving and strive to create classics, so the progress is very slow.
And the virtual community is the same, the speed is not very fast.
It will take at least 1992 to officially launch ICQ game platform and virtual community.
Henry nodded after hearing the speech, and then chatted about his family. He asked curiously how far his relationship with his girlfriend, an Jiayi, had progressed and when he would get married. He must invite himself to have a wedding wine!
Tian Shuai''s face turned a little red, "we are still young before we get married! Of course, you will be invited to our wedding. I hope you can spare some time to attend our wedding
"Ha ha," Henry said with a smile, "no problem, I''ll give you a super gift at that time!"
Henry then continued to chat for a few minutes and left ICQ.
Not long after she left, kailina called and said that Amgen biopharmaceutical company wanted to acquire other pharmaceutical companies, consult her own side, and hope to get financial support!
Henry pondered for a moment and said to Kalina, "tomorrow, you and I will go to Anjin biopharmaceutical company to have a good understanding of the situation."
"Well, good!"
After hanging up the phone, Henry remembered the news of Fortune 500 published on July 22: "in 1991, Amgen biopharmaceutical company of the United States ranked among the Fortune 500 for the first time. In the first half of this year, the sales of its products have exceeded 600 million US dollars!"
The reason why Anjin biopharmaceutical company makes so much money is that it only took one or two years to become one of the top 500 in the world because it has developed two heavyweight drugs, Epogen (erythropoietin) and neupogen (leucopoietin)!!! And these two kinds of drugs have been praised by the world''s major professional medical journals as two of the most successful commercialized biotechnology drugs in the world!!!
Epogen is used to treat anemia caused by chronic renal failure and anemia treated by HIV infection!
Neupogen is used to treat neutropenia caused by chemotherapy!
These two kinds of drugs not only benefit countless hemodialysis patients and cancer chemotherapy patients, but also bring huge profits to amjin biopharmaceutical company, and amjin biopharmaceutical also develops rapidly accordingly! Now, it has developed to the level of acquiring other companies!!!
Amgen biopharmaceutical company is headquartered in the academic atmosphere of Thousand Oaks, California, close to the University of California and California Institute of technology, to absorb fresh blood!
Henry and kellina both got off the plane wearing sunglasses, which were hard to find. Henry and kailinna are both well-known people, especially Henry. The picture of the richest man is presented by some people as the God of wealth. They offer incense three times a day to bless their promotion and prosperity
This time, Henry made a temporary decision and didn''t let kailina inform Amgen biopharmaceutical company.
Thousand Oaks, California, is a small city north of Los Angeles. Surrounded by mountains and beautiful scenery, it attracts many middle and upper class residents to settle down! Its architecture is mainly Mexican style, the urban environment is comfortable and clean!
Henry and kailinna stroll in the meantime, as if they had come to a tourist resort, blowing cool wind, feeling exotic general!
"It''s a nice place. There are few people and it''s quiet..." Henry said with a smile. "Although San Jose is developed, it has too many people. It''s the most densely populated place in California!"
"Ha ha, San Jose is the tenth largest city in the United States and the richest city in the United States. Of course, there are more people living in it..."
When Henry and Kalina came to the center of the city, it was lively! There are many open-air restaurants here. Henry and his wife chose a nearby restaurant for lunch.
However, when eating, the crowd around them always look at them!
"Are you recognized by them?" she whispered
"It''s not me. They see you. You''re recognized," Henry said with a wry smile. "At dinner, you took off your sunglasses, and I''m still wearing them. In addition, my dress is not the same as usual. I just changed my hairstyle yesterday. I think people who are not familiar with me can''t recognize me unless I take off my glasses too... "
"It''s awkward to eat with sunglasses on."
"Well, let''s have a quick meal and leave after dinner!"
On the other side of the table sat two men in their thirties. One was a fat man with a bald head, a big nose, big eyes and a fierce face. His name was Matthew; The other is a thin man, like a bamboo pole, with a small head of water deer, named Zach.
Matthew whispered to Zach, "look, is that woman over there Kalina, CEO of prestige capital? She was on the cover of the last time
Zach turned to look at it, then nodded and said, "yes, it should be her. Hehe, I''m very impressed with this beautiful CEO. I dream of riding her at night!"
"Ha ha..." they both looked at each other, showing their eyes!
Matthew''s eyes flashed a trace of light, and he reached out to touch his companion. "Zach, it''s a rare opportunity. Don''t you see a little white face beside her? How about we come forward and blackmail her? "
"How to blackmail?"
"Ha ha, we are like this..." the fat man attached to the thin man''s ear and said, "we say that the little white face owes us money, and then let him pay back the money. If he doesn''t pay it back, we''ll ask Kalina to help him pay it back! "
"What if they call the police?" Asked the thin man.
"What are you afraid of! My cousin is the police officer here! " Fat man fearless way, "even if the final plan fails, let''s say recognize the wrong person, what else can she do to us?"
"Good!!! Let''s go and ask them for money now! " Zach squinted, turned his head and asked, "by the way, how much do we need?"
Matthew thought about it and said, "one hundred thousand dollars is not much for the rich."
"Well, we''ll take 100000!"
At this time, Matthew and Zach come up to Henry and Kalina with a look of ferocity. In fact, there is no need to pretend that their faces are fierce enough!
Henry frowned and looked at both of them. "What''s the matter with you?"
Matthew patted the table and said in a loud voice, "of course it is!"
Zach then said, "boy, I''ve been looking for you for a long time. I''m hiding here. Pay back the money quickly. You owe us $100000, but you haven''t paid it back yet! "
At this time, Henry''s bodyguard was ready to come. Henry waved to them to be calm. Now that two clowns have offered to come, Henry can have some fun. He looked at them with interest and asked, "when did I owe you money?"
Matthew said angrily, "you''re still pretending. You lost the gambling last time, and then you borrowed $100000 from me. You don''t admit it? If you dare not admit it, I will cut off your hand. Do you believe it
Zach said with a smile: "of course, if you don''t have money to pay back, you can ask the lady next to you to help you pay back. I know that she is a CEO. She has a lot of money!"
Henry laughed and understood their intention.
Kailinna looked at Henry and said, "let Sean drive them away, like flies, fidgety..."
Henry nodded: "well, I want to play a trick on them. Now that you have said that, I''ll let Sean drive them away!"
Then Henry made a gesture, and a big man came from a distance. Without saying a word, he subdued Matthew and Zach. They cried and cried. At this time, not far from the patrol came to hear the sound.
Matthew looked at it and immediately called out, "cousin, they hit people!"
Patrol more than 30 years old, is very tall, he is holding a baton, vigilant looking at Henry and others!
Matthew reluctantly stood up, pulled his cousin patrol aside and whispered, "cousin, do you see that? That woman is kailinna. She has a lot of money. We just wanted to blackmail her. We didn''t want to run to a man to beat us! We can''t be beaten in vain. We want them to pay for the medical expenses and extort 100000 dollars from them! If it''s done, the three of us will share the bill and give you 30000 dollars! "
Patrol Leo''s serious greed flashed by and said in a deep voice: "well, that''s settled!"
Then, Leo walked up to Henry and others and said, "now, the injured person wants you to pay 100000 dollars. Do you want to pay for it or not?"
"A little wound costs a hundred thousand?" Kailinna disdains to say.
"If you don''t pay, go to the police station!" Leo said with a very obvious threatening tone, and made a ready to take people.
Henry''s bodyguard wanted to do it. Henry stopped and frowned. One hundred thousand dollars is just a small sum of money, but it''s not so easy to make yourself pay for it.
"Karina, call my lawyer and say I was taken to the police station in Thousand Oaks, California!" Henry whispered to kellina.
"Well!"
Henry then said to Leo, "it''s my bodyguard who beat me. They both said that I owe them money. This has nothing to do with the lady next to me. Let''s go now and go to the police station. In other words, I haven''t been to the police station since I''ve been in the United States for so long. Ha ha, I''m very lucky today... "
Leo frowned. "100000 dollars, you don''t want to pay?"
"Come on, officer, I''m not going to pay you a dime!"
Leo said with a sullen face, "well, since you want to stay in jail, let''s go!"
Henry and Sean went to the police station with Leo, Matthew, Zach and others.
When he got to the police station, Leo began to interrogate Henry.
"What''s your name, age and occupation?"
"I''m sorry, I won''t tell you anything until my lawyer arrives!"
When Leo heard this, he was very angry: "OK, I''ll wait!"
Leo sat in the interrogation room and smoked. After smoking one, he asked Henry again. Henry didn''t say a word and ignored him completely!
Leo snorted coldly and began to smoke again.
After an hour, suddenly a young policeman came in.
"Sergeant Leo, no, no!"
"What''s the fuss!"
"Just go outside and have a look!"
Leo frowned, got up and went out.
As soon as I got to the door of the police station, I heard someone saying, "I''m a lawyer from will law firm..."
"I''m a lawyer at Langdon law firm..."
“……”
The young policeman came to Leo and said in a low voice, "officer, a group of people outside are lawyers!"
Leo looked up and saw that there were at least hundreds of people in suits and shoes!
In an instant, Leo felt that the sky was dim and the earth was dark, and he could not stand steadily! He knew that he was afraid of disaster. How big would it be for him to invite more than 100 lawyers to this small police station
