Chapter 9 Tyrant
From the outside, Double Click Advertising Company now looks extremely shabby. Apart from a painted sign, there are only two International computers in the garage, as well as second-hand printers, fax machines, etc., which are worth a few dollars.
For Song Yang, this is the first company that belongs to him. It is not easy to get all these with the little funding given by Greg.
Greg's face was still serious, but looking at the garage on Highway 7, it was quite presentable, and he knew that Song Yang did not squander the money.
Outside the garage, Gallo and Haley were taking pictures with a borrowed Kodak camera. After all, today was a memorable day. Although Gallo, Haley and others felt that Song Yang's "Double Click Advertising Company" was a bit unreliable, they still took pictures to record it.
After Song Yang took a photo alone, he called Jaden and others over to take a group photo. Song Yang shouted to Greg in the garage, "Uncle Greg, you need to stand here too. You are the legal advisor of DoubleClick Advertising Company and the future legal director!"
Hearing this, Greg's brows twitched. Song Yang really did not miss an opportunity to get something for free, so he directly handed over the legal affairs of Double Click Advertising to Greg. However, apart from Greg, Song Yang could not find any other lawyer. The key point was that it would cost money to find other lawyers, while finding Greg was basically free. Maybe Greg would even have to pay money to Double Click Advertising Company.
No matter what he thought in his heart, Greg still stood with Song Yang, and then this photo was frozen.
There are three people in the photo. Song Yang is smiling and seems to be quite expectant. Greg is as serious as ever, as if facing a great enemy.
As for the last person, Jaden, he had a sad look on his face, as if he had entered a den of wolves.
After taking the photos, it was time for Gallo and Haley to appear. A party would be held here tonight to celebrate the establishment of Double Click Advertising Company.
"Uncle Greg, in the future DoubleClick Advertising Company will have a lot of legal matters that will require you to handle!" Song Yang said to Greg who was about to leave.
Greg didn't take this to heart, and took out another envelope of funds and placed it in front of Song Yang, "I don't care what you do, the next funding will still depend on how well you do!"
Song Yang watched Greg leave, turned around and grabbed Jaden who was debugging the computer, and pulled him outside the garage to help set up the venue. "Tonight is the last time to relax. Tomorrow we will start our hellish life."
Jaden felt that being in this garage was already hell, and he didn't know how much worse it could get.
At night, a large group of men and women came to the Highway 7 garage to party. The people from Gallo Motors and Song Yang's group at Devers School all came to join in the fun, and of course Jenny was there too.
Hailey called a group of her model sisters over, and when the exciting DJ music sounded and bottles of drinks were brought out, no matter what the conditions were, they started dancing wildly.
"So, you have built a company during this time?" Jenny looked at the garage in front of her and felt amazed. This was beyond her expectations.
Song Yang nodded, and naturally exaggerated a little in front of the girl, "It's an Internet media company. All Internet companies will need it in the future!"
“Like Microsoft?!”
The few technology figures she had heard of were probably Microsoft and Bill Gates. Jenny looked at Song Yang with shining eyes, "Will you be as successful as Bill Gates?"
"If I can reach the level of Bill Gates, I will make you an Oscar winner!"
Haley, who was passing by, heard the conversation between Song Yang and Jenny. She couldn't help rolling her eyes and complained, "Scumbag." A few days ago, Song Yang said the same words to Haley.
Sure enough, when Haley turned around, she saw Jenny had already raised her red lips and moved closer to the scumbag. Haley thought to herself, "Silly girl," and felt that Jenny was still too naive. After entering the art industry, she would know how deep the water is.
The party lasted most of the night. Song Yang and Jenny lingered for a while, and finally sent her back before the deadline set by Jenny's family for her to go home.
When Song Yang went to the garage in the morning, there were several drunkards lying inside and outside the garage. Jaden was also drunk and unconscious yesterday.
Song Yang drove away those drunkards and cleaned up the garage inside and out. In the afternoon, Double Click Advertising Company officially started operations, but soon, Jaden felt like he had encountered a tyrant.
Song Yang placed a set of system software architecture and design requirements in front of Jaden. When Jaden saw the requirements, he suddenly felt overwhelmed and his head started to hurt again after a night of hangover.
In front of Jaden was a set of design requirements for a software system, which was mainly an advertising delivery system center. Through the advertising delivery system, advertisements could be preliminarily planned and designed, and then delivered to the docking website. The delivered advertisements could be managed through the system center. In addition, the delivery system could be used to know the advertisement click-through rate, delivery time, advertising sales share, profit, etc.
Of course, Song Yang was not prepared to become rich all at once. The requirements for this delivery system were quite high, and even after another five or six years, the technology would not be completely outdated.
Even Microsoft's computer system has only gradually matured after more than ten years of upgrades, so the advertising delivery system that Song Yang launched for DoubleClick Advertising Company is basically a wolf in sheep's clothing. As long as the advertisements can be placed on the cooperative websites and the click-through rate of the advertisements can be detected, the remaining functions can be implemented slowly.
But even so, the workload was not small, and Jaden felt that his more than 10,000 US dollars was a real loss.
In addition to this system, Song Yang also added several inconspicuous "little technologies" to this design, preparing to apply for a patent.
The most important of these are the two technologies of "interactive network" and "one-click ordering". To put it simply, the former means that when a user sees a web page and wants to open it, he just clicks the mouse to open the web page. This action is called "interactive network" technology.
As for whether this thing is a rogue patent, Song Yang is unwilling to care, but he knows that as long as this thing can get away with it and get patent applications approved in America, Europe and other places, then every website in the world will have to pay a share of the bill to Double Click Advertising Company!
As for the second patent, "One-click ordering", as the name suggests, it is mainly used in the e-commerce field. There is no need to enter cumbersome information or verification codes. You can purchase products with just one click. This is the one-click ordering patent.
This is one of the most impressive and rogue patents that Song Yang has ever seen. When he saw it in his previous life, Song Yang realized how deep the water is in the Internet industry. Amazon relied on this patent alone to disgust its peers and almost made them cry. Since the launch of this patent, it has earned hundreds of millions of US dollars just by collecting patent fees.
In addition to the two major patents of "Switched Network" and "One-Click Ordering", Song Yang also has several other patents such as "One-Click Payment". Even if Double Click Advertising Company can no longer continue, in a few years, relying on the advertising delivery system of Double Click Advertising Company and these major patents, Song Yang may still be able to live a good life.
Looking at the boss who was much younger than him, Jaden grabbed his hair and said, "Have you ever learned programming? Do you know how much technology and code it takes?"
"I have taught myself and read books on programming!" Song Yang replied woodenly, "Now it's time for you to fulfill your promise. The penalty for breach of contract is 500,000!"
Jaden then remembered that when he signed the employment agreement yesterday, Song Yang had specifically added a penalty clause to it, which completely cut off Jaden's idea of running away.
After staying still for a while, Jaden started programming with a bitter face. When he looked over inadvertently, he saw Song Yang was also programming.
Jaden went over curiously and saw that Song Yang was really programming, although very slowly. He would look at the programming software textbook from time to time. Jaden was surprised and couldn't help but push his glasses on the bridge of his nose and looked at Song Yang a few more times. He didn't expect that Song Yang didn't lie to him and really taught himself programming.
Seeing that his employer, Song Yang, was busy working, Jaden naturally could not complain and could only start working like a slave.
Song Yang is building an official website for DoubleClick Advertising Company. As the world's first Internet advertising company, it naturally needs a good reputation.
Anyway, no one is competing with DoubleClick Advertising Company now, so just post all kinds of words such as "the world's first Internet advertising technology company", "the world's leading Internet media", "America's Internet advertising technology leader" on DoubleClick Advertising Company's official website.
However, the programming language nowadays is still somewhat different from that of later generations. Song Yang is also struggling. It is at this time that he can see the benefit of having Jaden as his helper. Otherwise, if Song Yang relies on himself, it would take him who knows when he will succeed.
But for Jaden, it was not good news. Song Yang had very high requirements for the advertising delivery system. He could even see the bugs and errors in his programming and asked him to make constant revisions. Jaden felt like he was living in hell.
After Double Click Advertising Company was established, there was a bunch of people who came to the party that day to join in the fun. However, once the novelty wore off, except for Gallo and Haley, and Jenny who came to see Song Yang from time to time, everyone else had long since disappeared.
Song Yang basically ran back and forth between Devers School and the garage, and Jaden did the same. In order to avoid paying the $500,000 penalty, he had to go back and forth between the University of Houston and the garage.
