Chapter 38 Behind the Scenes
Hearing Song Yang's words, Josiah showed joy on his face, pointed at Greg and said to Song Yang, "Greg is my best partner!"
Greg looked at Josiah, who used to be the one who had the final say in the law firm, and now even tried to please Song Yang, which made him sigh in his heart that the world has really changed.
Josiah and Song Yang walked towards the golf club, complimenting Song Yang from time to time, and even flattered Greg.
Now DoubleClick has become the largest client of Josiah's small law firm. What Josiah fears most now is that Song Yang will suddenly kick his small law firm out. Josiah has heard that several large law firms are very interested in DoubleClick!
Song Yang's net worth has exceeded 10 million in such a short period of time. Josiah doesn't know what Song Yang's net worth will be if DoubleClick Company goes public as the media says.
By then, Josiah's law firm might be the one serving a listed company. When he thought of this, Josiah felt a surge of excitement in his heart.
And now even a figure like Adrian wants to meet Song Yang, which makes Josiah more convinced that Song Yang has the opportunity to become a big man in the future, so naturally he is unwilling to let go.
"Greck, maybe he will become a partner of the law firm, and the law firm may be named Josiah and Greck Law Firm!"
Greg was walking and saw Josiah suddenly turn around and say something to him with a smile. Although it was meant as a joke, it still made Greg's heart tremble.
Partner in a law firm, a law firm with his own name, when Greg thought about this, although he tried to remain calm, the smile on his face became stiff.
Of course Song Yang could see what Josiah was thinking, which was to tie Greg to his law firm and then get the legal affairs of DoubleClick.
Regarding Josiah's method, Song Yang also said, "This is a good name. I look forward to seeing that day!"
Josiah was stunned for a moment. He didn't expect Song Yang to agree directly, but he quickly reacted, "I have been looking forward to this day for a long time. Greg is my best partner. Together we will be the best legal team in Houston. What do you think, Greg?"
Americans are never modest and always brag about themselves. It is impossible to refuse at this time. Greg said affirmatively, "I think so too!"
Josiah naturally felt a little distressed about letting Greg become a partner of the law firm and giving him a portion of the equity, but he also accepted it as he and Song Yang became "one of their own".
"The person who contacted me this time was Congressman Adrian's personal lawyer Digg . Adrian is here today to meet his 'fundraising supporters'!"
Having become "one of us", Josiah told Song Yang what he knew.
Song Yang understood clearly that to raise funds for supporters, in plain words, was to meet those big donors. Elections were very expensive. No matter whether it was city councilors or congressmen, or even going a step further on Capitol Hill, elections had to be held every few years, and each time it was a war of US dollars. Therefore, those federal bigwigs who could stand on the stage had the support of a bunch of donors behind them.
After entering the golf club, Song Yang and others went directly to a small dining hall. Outside the dining room, Song Yang saw Digger, who was in contact with Josiah, and a slightly thin middle-aged man next to him.
Seeing Song Yang and others arriving, Digg whispered a few words to the middle-aged man next to him.
The middle-aged man looked Song Yang up and down several times, with a slightly surprised look in his eyes. He was obviously surprised at Song Yang's age. He knew who were the people in the restaurant behind him.
"Please wait a moment!" the middle-aged man said to Song Yang, then pushed open the door of the restaurant behind him and walked in, then closed the door tightly.
“Matthews is like this, Councillor Adrian has let Song in, and Matthews still has to report!”
Digg, who was standing at the door, smiled and said to Song Yang, secretly mocking that Matthews was an old dog who was only loyal to Adrian.
Hearing that Matthews was Adrian's chief of staff, Song Yang did not dare to underestimate Matthews at all. He was Adrian's most trusted confidant, who knew almost all of Adrian's secrets. Of course, he must have been involved in various private activities and had the right to use Adrian's power!
A congressman can have many helpers. In places like Los Angeles and New York, a congressman may have more than 30 assistants, but his real confidants are only the chief of staff, personal lawyers and a few others.
Digg and Matthews seemed to be at odds with each other, but he was interested in getting closer to Song Yang. In a moment, he seemed to have become familiar with Greg. After all, he was a multi-millionaire. Which lawyer would be willing to refuse the opportunity to get closer to an upstart like Song Yang?
"Song, Congressman Adrian invites you in!" After Matthews came out, he opened the restaurant door for Song Yang.
Song Yang nodded to Matthews and went in with Greg and others. As soon as Song Yang entered, he immediately attracted the attention of everyone in the small restaurant.
Song Yang also took a look inside the small restaurant. It was filled with old white men, all over 40 years old, all dressed in suits and ties, and obviously of high status.
"It's that lucky guy!"
When Song Yang entered the restaurant, he could vaguely hear several people in the restaurant whispering about Song Yang. The word mentioned most often was "lucky guy". Obviously, these people still thought that Song Yang was just lucky and the company he founded was suddenly noticed by the WPP Group.
"Ooooh, look who's here!"
Adrian, who was holding a plate and talking to a few people, saw Song Yang coming in. He immediately put down what he was holding, walked towards Song Yang, and said to the people in the restaurant, "This is our Houston genius. The Houston media predicts that this is a man who will change the future!"
"Kenneth, your style is a bit outdated!"
When passing by, Adrian pointed at a slightly bald man in his fifties and said, which caused the others to laugh. The middle-aged man who was teased did not get angry at all. Instead, he looked at Song Yang with interest, "After all, the times are changing, and we have to look forward!"
"Song, I'm glad you can come to this party!"
When they arrived in front of Song Yang, Adrian hugged Song Yang. Adrian did not look outstanding, but he gave people a friendly feeling. He was very eloquent and very contagious.
Adrian led Song Yang into the circle just now, and Matthews calmly took Greg and Josiah aside.
"I have to say that Song really exceeded my expectations. He made Houston a new technology hub like Silicon Valley. DoubleClick will become a big company, I'm sure of that!"
Adrian took a bite of food, waved the hand holding the fork gently, and spoke to the people in the circle, including the bald man just now.
