Chapter 65 Prophecy
Eric had no objection to Spivey's joining. He wished there were more people. There were too many things to deal with in a project of several hundred miles, so Eric was naturally happy to have someone to help.
Even though he has opened many high-end restaurants over the years, Eric is not a very gentleman when eating.
After swallowing the last bite of the excellent Argentinian steak, Eric knew that he would be busy after tonight, so he stood up and said to Gallo, Spivey and others, "Let's go to the RICK Club today, I'll pay!"
After eating, Song Yang and Greg did not leave, but Eric and Gallo carried Spivey away.
After leaving the restaurant, Song Yang said to Greg, "Uncle Greg, please help me take care of the equity of the Hotmail mailbox and ICQ instant messaging project!"
Glancing at Song Yang, Greg said with a straight face, "I know. I will take care of this matter."
Greg naturally understood what Song Yang meant. He wanted to completely separate the shares of Hotmail and ICQ from DoubleClick. If anything happened to America Movil in the future, Bank of America would not be able to take away these two companies.
After a pause, when they were almost at the parking lot, Greg spoke again, "We still have to be careful about the America Móvil project. Once AT&T, Comcast, and Verizon know about this project, they won't give up easily. People like Adrian... also have to be careful!"
"I understand!" Song Yang knew that Greg was reminding him that he could seek help from powerful federal figures such as Adrian, but not to rely entirely on this group of people.
After obtaining funds from Bank of America, the newly-formed America Móvil began to implement its plan in full swing.
Eric and Spivey began to prepare, while Song Yang, Gallo, Jenny and Haley went to the town of Chamin. In addition to attending the baptism of Song Yang's godson, whom he had never met, the other thing was to solve the construction problems of the Chicago to Wall Street line project.
The two cars started from Houston and drove towards the town of Chamin. Haley drove the Ferrari F50 in front, and Song Yang and Gaylord followed behind.
"I haven't been here for a long time!" Gallo said to Song Yang as if he was quite nostalgic.
Song Yang glanced at Gallo, and he couldn't tell where he missed her at all. "If you want, I can tell Jax to let you stay there."
Gallo cursed angrily, he just said it casually, it's not like he complained that his current life was too good. The salary Song Yang gave him was paid according to the standards of senior executives.
In the future, he may receive equity rewards from DoubleClick or other companies. Gallo may become a millionaire or even a billionaire. If life like this is unbearable, why not go back to being a motorcycle bandit?
Just like those basketball stars who came out of the slums, when facing interviews, they may often say that the slums tempered their will, etc., and it sounds like they miss the life there. But which one of them would give up living in a villa and run to the slums to sleep on the floor with other people, unless they are bankrupt .
The car drove all the way into the town of Chamin. As soon as we entered the town, we could clearly feel that it was different from other places. From time to time, a team of Harley motorcycles passed by on the streets.
After Song Yang and his team's vehicle entered the town, it immediately attracted a lot of attention. After all, it was hard not to attract attention with that Ferrari F50.
We drove all the way to the town church located on a high ground in the town. There were already quite a few people gathered there. Haley and Jenny just got out of the car and looked back at the town below, "The scenery here is nice!"
Song Yang and Gallo looked strange after hearing this. Seeing this, Hailey asked them in confusion, "Is there something wrong here?"
Song Yang and Gallo looked at each other and shook their heads. If Haley knew how many opponents of the Sons of Chaos were buried under the town of Chamin, she would not have said this. If this town was developed one day, the real estate company would probably dig up a lot of "surprises".
"The big shot from Houston!"
As soon as Song Yang and his friends arrived at the church door, a teasing voice was heard. Song Yang saw that the person who spoke was Clay, the current president of the Sons of Chaos. He was quite tall and it was obvious at first glance that he was not someone to be trifled with.
Hearing this, Song Yang just laughed, and the people near the church also looked at Song Yang. They had naturally heard some rumors about Song Yang during this period, and knew that Song Yang and the Bruno family both came from the town of Chamin, but when they saw Song Yang, they were still extremely surprised.
Song Yang took a look and saw that many people had come today. In addition to Jax, Opie, Donna and others whom he knew, there were also gangs from other towns. The Maya Gang, the 19 Gang and others had also sent people, which showed how many evildoers there were in this border town.
"Song, I'm glad you can come!" Jax stepped forward and said. Jax was obviously very happy that Song Yang could come.
Donna, who came with Opie and was familiar with Song Yang and Gallo, couldn't help but exclaimed when she saw Song Yang and Gallo, "Song, Gallo, it's really you. Opie said you would come, I can't believe it. Are those media reports true?!"
Obviously, for Donna and the people in this town, it is still hard to imagine that Song Yang, who was reported by TV stations and media news, suddenly became a technological prodigy and a multi-millionaire.
Especially the technological geniuses reported by the media, Donna, who once went to the same school as Song Yang and knew Song Yang inside and out, felt that their three views were somewhat unreliable.
"Song is a genius. His mind was only on baseball before!" Before Song Yang could speak, Jenny, who was holding Song Yang's arm, was the first to bring out Song Yang's genius, thinking that Song Yang just didn't bring out his talent before.
Song Yang just laughed and talked about some past events with Opie, Donna, Jax and others. At this time, Song Yang saw a group of people coming, said something to Opie, and walked towards the group of people.
"Mr. Oswald!" Song Yang said to a man who had just arrived at the church door.
Elliot Oswald, who had just walked his family to the church entrance, was surprised to see Song Yang. He felt that he looked familiar, and then suddenly remembered the news he saw on TV a few days ago, "Are you Song?"
"Mr. Oswald, would it be convenient for us to talk later?" Song Yang said to Elliot. The Oswald family is the most well-known family in the town of Chamin. They own more than one-third of the land in Chamin and several surrounding towns. They also own farms, lumber mills, processing plants and other industries. Even in Houston, their net worth is considered substantial.
The most important thing is that Elliot also owns a construction company. Previously, most of the projects in Chamin and the surrounding towns were built by Oswald Construction Company!
Elliot Oswald looked at Song Yang in surprise. He had read the news and knew that Song Yang was an Internet user, tinkering with his computer. He didn't know why he was looking for a typical American landlord like him.
But facing Song Yang, the newly-crowned multimillionaire, Elliot would not offend him, "Welcome Song, you can come to visit the Oswald family anytime!"
After entering the church, Song Yang, Jenny, Gallo and others watched the baptism ceremony of Jax's son. After the church pastor completed the ceremony, Jax suddenly stepped forward and announced to everyone present that Song Yang became Amber's godfather.
It goes without saying that Opie and others had already known the news, but everyone else present, whether they were gang members or celebrities in the town like Elliot, were all surprised by the news. This was beyond everyone's expectations!
Song Yang stepped forward and took Amber from Jax. He lowered his head and looked at everyone in the church. He gently lifted Amber up and said, "I'm sure he will become a big figure in America in the future!"
The Mayan gang and other gang members sitting below all changed their expressions when they saw this scene. Song Yang was completely different from the Sons of Chaos. They would rather fight with Jax and the others than to provoke an American multi-millionaire or even a billionaire.
After handing Amber over to Jax, Song Yang took out a jade pendant of longevity lock that he bought from Chinatown and placed it on Amber. "This is an oriental tradition. It can bring good luck to Amber!"
"He will wear it all the time!" Jax said to Song Yang. He knew that this was a token of love from Song Yang to Amber.
After the baptism, there was a banquet like other gatherings, but Song Yang did not attend it. Instead, he came to Elliot's house.
The Oswald family estate where Elliot lives has been renovated by several generations and is now quite large. Even compared to those famous mansions, its area is not inferior at all. If you want to get such a huge estate in Houston now, you may need a large sum of US dollars. Even so, the old whites who own those lands may not be willing to sell them.
"These are all made from grapes from the Oswald family farm. Song, you can try it!" Elliot poured a glass of red wine for Song Yang.
The Oswald family, which owns a large farm, can basically achieve self-sufficiency . Except for machinery and electronic products, which they cannot produce, they grow tea, tobacco, grapes, etc.
Song Yang took a sip and couldn't taste any difference, but looking at Elliot's slightly smug look, he knew that this wine might be of some quality.
After saying good wine, Song Yang said to Elliot, "Actually, I came here this time to seek cooperation with Oswald Company!"
"Work with me?"
Elliot, who was sipping his wine, was stunned for a moment, then he couldn't help but laugh and said, "Sorry, I don't know much about the Internet and computers, so I'm afraid I can't help you."
"Not the Internet, I need Oswald Construction to help me with a project."
"Dig a line from Chicago to Wall Street in New York!"
Elliot didn't even notice the wine spilling from his hand. He looked as if Song Yang was teasing him. "Song, this joke is not good."
Seeing that Song Yang didn't have the slightest bit of joking on his face, Elliot's expression also became serious, "This is not a small project, but, Song, what are you going to do?"
"I just want to know if Oswald Construction Company can take on this project!"
