MTL - Back To 1995-Chapter 73 Chamber of Deference

   Chapter 73

  As one of the largest toy entertainment cities in America, Houston, the flagship store of Toys R Us, is also huge.

The whole mall is basically dominated by toys, comics, clothes, etc., including Toys R Us, Disney and several other toy and game companies. There are stores in this mall. It is conceivable that every weekend, How many like Millia will come to play.

  Song Yanggang and Millia, as well as Gallo and Logan who came together, received a call from Brady after passing through the iconic clock tower gate of R Us.

   "Song, those guys are crazy, they don't even know what they're doing!"

   As soon as he answered the phone, Brady's angry voice came over, causing Song Yang's ears to go numb.

  Song Yang naturally knew who Brady was referring to, "Netscape really canceled Yahoo's search offering?"

"No, but what's the difference between cancelling and canceling," Brady smiled bitterly, "Netscape wants to increase the cost of searching for suppliers, and provide users with search providers in alphabetical order, what does this have to do with canceling? the difference!"

Across the phone, Song Yang could feel Yahoo's frustration. After going public, Netscape introduced three new search providers at one time, and provided users with the services of these search providers in alphabetical order. , almost without counting, we all know that Yahoo is in the last place.

   "What about the two chiefs of Yahoo, what are their opinions?" Song Yang asked. Whether Yahoo and Netscape openly turned against Netscape depends on what Yang Zhiyuan and Ferro mean.

   "They are meeting with shareholders and investors. They need to stabilize the investors on Wall Street and let them know that changes in Netscape will not affect Yahoo!" Brady said helplessly.

   This is the helplessness of someone who is in charge of the head, and if there is a little trouble, you have to explain it to the big boss.

   "Jim and Anderson are really crazy!" Brady couldn't help but complain.

  Song Yang strongly agreed with this, "Not only Yahoo, but also the Double-click Company. Netscape asked Double-click to increase its advertising costs. Now Double-click's advertising to Netscape is no longer profitable."

Brady believed Song Yang's words. During this period of time, Netscape has been aggressive and pretended to be the leader of the Internet industry. In fact, it was to increase revenue and develop a new generation of browsers with more powerful functions. The pressure with other Internet companies began to increase.

Now Song Yang hopes that Netscape can quickly start a war with Microsoft, otherwise when Netscape starts to expand wildly, the digital advertising, portal sites and other industries where Double-click, Yahoo is located, may all be targeted by Netscape. Can't go down.

   "I heard that Netscape is developing a new generation of browsers in the center, and is implementing a new JAVA language and Internet technology standard with SUN Systems!"

  Song Yang seems to have "unintentionally" revealed the power of Netscape on the phone, and has begun to formulate the technology and standards of the Internet.

   This is to bypass Microsoft, a giant in the software industry, and open up a new battlefield in the Internet. If Netscape is allowed to accomplish this feat, then Netscape can rely on the Internet industry to compete with Microsoft!

   On the phone, Song Yang could clearly hear a word beginning with F, and then there was a moment of silence. Brady also obviously guessed what Song Yang meant.

Netscape is preparing to start a war with Microsoft. If it wants to rely on browsers to replace Microsoft's system, it requires Netscape to get the support of the entire Internet. Only Netscape's browsers can meet all the requirements of users to surf the Internet. Users can get rid of Microsoft, which is one of the reasons Netscape continues to put pressure on Yahoo.

After a while, Brady spoke again, "Song, Netscape, Yahoo will reconsider, I'm looking for you today because I want to increase the promotion of Yahoo, Yahoo needs to make up for the lost traffic and users from Netscape. !"

   "No problem, double-click the company's side, it will increase the promotion for Yahoo, and I will personally call Martin Solo and ask WPP Group to use offline TV stations, newspapers, magazines and other media to promote Yahoo."

  Song Yang said directly, this made Brady feel like the spring breeze was coming. Compared with the strictness of Netscape, Song Yang's side can be described as "full of sincerity".

   "Song, I, and everyone at Yahoo, will never forget everything you did for Yahoo." Brady assured Song Yang.

   Song Yang didn't believe a single word of this, and when Yahoo has reached Netscape's current position, I'm afraid it's not even more ferocious than Netscape.

   "Brady, I am also a Yahoo shareholder and will always stand with Yahoo!"

  Song Yang also said, "But Brady, after a while, I need to launch a new product, and I hope Yahoo can help promote it."

   "New product?" He had sworn just now that he would not forget everything Song Yang had done for Yahoo, Brady, and he was obviously hesitant at this time.

   "Don't worry, it's not a portal, it won't compete with Yahoo!"

   "Song, you're too careful, I didn't mean that, don't worry, Yahoo will give you the best traffic for your new products..."

After    hung up the phone, Song Yang and Brady on the other end of the phone both pouted and raised the other party's defense level a bit.

After    hung up the phone, Song Yang heard Millia calling him. After a while, she had already held a lot of things in her arms and a small cake in her hand.

"this!"

  Standing on the shelf taller than her, Millia excitedly pointed to Song Yang a miniature replica of the piano keyboard from the Hollywood movie "Leap to the Future", 128 dollars.

   A toy, 128 dollars, two days' salary for an American adult, it's so bad to grab it.

   Gallo sneered and said to Milia, "If Daana finds out, you buy these, do you know what will happen?"

   Hearing this, Milia pouted immediately, seeing that a thunderstorm was about to fall, Song Yang took down the small piano keyboard and stuffed it into Milia's arms, and the rain dissipated immediately.

In the entire "R Us", there are almost all kinds of toys and props for various animations and movies. In addition to the piano keyboard, Millia is also eyeing a baby doll, and $75 can "adopt" a baby doll, and The staff pretended to be nurses and taught Millia to take care of the dolls.

   Seeing this doll, Millia immediately felt that the piano keyboard was not fragrant. She shoved the keyboard into Logan's arms and rushed into the doll shop.

There are also magic shows, indoor swings, merry-go-rounds and other toy installations throughout the mall. No matter what the price of the person who comes in is, it is definitely impossible to come out empty-handed anyway. A Mercedes-Benz toy car with Swarovski crystals is priced at $30,000, which is enough to buy a real car in America...

Gallo, who acted as a human-shaped shopping cart, looked at Miria who was playing happily, and complained to Song Yang, "Who designed this, it's too immoral, but there are so many toys, why don't we have these back then? ?"

   "Even if there is, do you think you can get these things from Greck and Daana?!"

  Song Yang relentlessly attacked, Gallo seemed to make sense when he heard it. He dared to mention these things to Greg at that time, and he had to leave him with cows for a few days on Old Bruno's farm.

   Seeing Miria who was having fun, Song Yang and the others sat down at the restaurant next to them.

   Song Yang looked at Logan, who was still bored along the way, and asked him, "How is it in the new school?"

After moving to the new villa, Song Yang and Gleek paid a sponsorship fee, and they went to the private school in the community where the villa is located for Logan and Millia. It is also the best school in Houston, and provides personnel for major Ivy League universities all year round. .

   "It's alright," Logan said, looking at Song Yang, "but it's much more intense than the original school!"

  Don't look at the American media, which advocates dropping out of college all the year round, but families with real money try their best to send people to top universities. After graduation, they work as lawyers, doctors, engineers, etc., and slowly climb to the upper class.

   As for those who don’t have money, who can’t go to Ivy League universities or even community colleges, then they basically accept their fate and contribute to factories, fast food restaurants, service industries, etc. in America, and of course, they also provide talents for gangs.

   "I believe Logan, he will definitely enter the Ivy League University and become America's elite, what do you think, Song?" Gallo said with a wink to Song Yang.

Song Yang glanced at Logan and nodded. There were Song Yang, Greck, Gallo, and others. As long as Logan didn't kill himself, he would be maverick, enter a prestigious school, and work in a job after graduation. Interested in a job, marrying a girl from a famous family, even a starlet, a model, etc., is not difficult, this situation is much stronger than Song Yanggang coming to America and facing the contribution to McDonald's. .

   "Song, old Bruno asked us to go to the farm together in a few days, I don't think it's a good thing!" Gallo swallowed a plate of small egg tarts and said vaguely to Song Yang.

  The old Bruno couple had mentioned it several times, and asked Song Yang, Greck, and Gallo to go to the small farm together. Greck decided to visit the old Bruno couple together in a few days.

Song Yang had a good impression of Old Bruno, the little old man. In his memory, the Brunos took good care of Song Yang's original body. In the first few years after his parents' accident, the old Brunos took care of Song Yang. After school, I followed Greck and Daana.

   shook his head, Song Yang could also guess what Gallo meant, it was nothing more than those rich relatives who had distant relatives in the mountains, "The Bruno Foundation has been established, let them join the Bruno Foundation!"

  Gallo smiled, he knew that the Bruno family had several relatives, but it was difficult to deal with them. Song Yang obviously threw the blame on Daana and Greck, who were in charge of the Foundation. It was probably enough for Greck to have a headache.
