Back To 1995: Chapter 667 Life is like a play, it all depends on acting skills
Chapter 667 Life is like a play, it all depends on acting skills
Looking around, in the entire American technology industry, Bill Gates suddenly found that the relationship with Microsoft was not bad, and it seemed that only Song Yang's camp was left.
Microsoft and Song Yang, although there was arguing, but the two sides always maintained their face and did not completely tear each other up. There were also battles between the two sides, but they were cooperating.
Bill Gates is very clear that as long as Song Yang doesn't make a fuss, Song Yang will definitely be able to enter honorary institutions such as the Federal Inventors Hall of Fame, and he will be carried in without even waiting for retirement estimates.
Sighed, Bill Gates suddenly felt that if he wanted to gain the fame of Jim Clark in the future, he might fall on Song Yang...
As Christmas approached, America also became noisy. Advertisements on TV stations and on the streets began to increase significantly. Hypermarkets in major shopping malls also started discount promotions. This is a drama that happens every year.
The sales volume during the Christmas period is often equivalent to 10% or even 20% of the annual revenue. After all, even the slums will be moved into a few Christmas trees. I don’t know where to get them.
There are also various theater blockbusters, events, performances, and sports competitions, which also started to get together. The Christmas game posters of the NBA and other leagues started to be posted early.
The "Matrix 1", which was released this summer, is still being released in many overseas regions. "The Matrix 2" is ready to be released in major theaters in America, and countless movie fans are looking forward to it.
When Western Films produced "The Matrix", they invested 300 million U.S. dollars and made three films in one go. At that time, there were Hollywood people who mocked Western Films for being stupid and rich.
Now there is no Hollywood company that mocks Western Films’ risky move anymore. This year’s summer, Christmas, and next year’s summer, no accident, will be taught a lesson by “The Matrix”.
With "The Matrix", Western Films has gained a foothold in Hollywood. It is still too early to challenge the six major film groups, but it can be regarded as erecting its own signboard.
Song Yang also received various invitations to receptions, charity, art exhibitions, etc., and they flew into Song Yang's hands like snowflakes.
After ICQ went public, Song Yang didn't even accept many media interviews, let alone participate in these invitations. However, Song Yang wanted to join in the annual awards ceremony of the American Italian American Foundation.
When RICK and the LVMH Group were vying for Gucci, the Italian Foundation secretly helped RICK, and let the securities institutions in the Italian peninsula also take action against the LVMH Group, which was regarded as a help to RICK.
This year's Italian Foundation Awards Ceremony, Song Yang must be going to attend, otherwise it would be unreasonable, and it would be too embarrassing for Viola, the chairman of the Italian Foundation, who came to San Jose to invite Song Yang .
The old Bruno couple are all in Houston. Song Yang, Gallo, Greck, and other members of the Bruno family will basically gather in Houston at Christmas to spend Christmas with the old Bruno couple. It has become the custom of the Bruno family.
Before the release, all members of the Bruno family went to various states in America, and even overseas, without even thinking about spending Christmas with the old Bruno couple.
But it’s different now. In order to show their membership in the Bruno family, no one wants to miss Christmas, and even those who are out of reach want to squeeze in. It’s all because of the benefits of the Bruno Family Foundation. , after all, the benefits of ten to twenty thousand dollars per month are real money!
A few days before Christmas, Greg and Gallo returned to Houston with Dana, Hailey, Millia, Amber and others, while Song Yang went to New York.
It's not in full swing yet, Leonardo is staying in the truck driver crew, filming the big production "Titanic", and will star in a gang movie "Gangs of New York" in the future.
Although it is only a movie, some changes have been made to the gangs in it. After all, the director Martin Scorsese, the lead actor and others are all Italian, so they must not pick up black material about their ancestors, and must beautify some of them.
But the film did produce some things. The Italians who first arrived in America settled in New York first, and most of the rest of the Irish, Chinese, etc. were also like this.
The largest Italian city in New York, there are many Italian communities gathered here, as well as the surrounding hotels, restaurants, hospitals, schools, etc., are all Italians, including the management of the councilors and police stations, and most of them are Italians The background, at least people who are closely related to Italians, otherwise they simply cannot stay here.
New York's Italian City is a neighbor to Chinatown next door. When Song Yang came here, he could even hear the voice of Italian, which is rare in other places in America.
This time of year is the busiest time in Italy City, because every day on the street, there are a group of people who have never lived in New York Italy City, leading a large group of people, spending money on the street, as long as they live in Proud children in the community here can get tens or even hundreds of dollars of "charity money" by reaching out their hands.
If it wasn't for the people from the Italian-American Foundation to stare at it, and the Italian-American media to take pictures with reporters, those adults probably couldn't help but reach out.
Although the adults will not be given money directly, all kinds of food, clothes, small electrical appliances, basic medicines and even game tickets will also be distributed to families in the community, basically equivalent to an Italian community family, half months or even a month of supplies.
And Song Yang, among the group of people distributing supplies today, took some supplies from the staff of the Italian Foundation from time to time and distributed them to the people who lined up to receive supplies.
Like Song Yang, there are still many people on the street, all smiling, and never refuse requests for group photos. Among them, a name Song Yang heard is a member of the Ferrero family, the fourth largest in the world. The Chocolate King, like Song Yang, also participated in the awards ceremony of the Italian Foundation.
"This is the "Holy Land" of Italians in America. Like Chinatown, it is a witness to the history of New York. Every Italian in America should not forget what the Italians did when they came to New York. everything!"
Standing beside Song Yang, Viola stepped on the ground hard, explaining to Song Yang how this street came about.
Song Yang nodded and looked up. The streets are full of Italian restaurants and shops, as well as Mediterranean-style souvenir shops.
A few more supplies were sent out. Song Yang felt that the heat was almost ready. Since he came to New York, he was dragged here by Viola, who served as the human background for most of the day.
Song Yang knew that he didn't come here for the sake of showing off. During the NBA All-Star Game, those stars would also be brought to participate in community activities and make some charitable donations, all for image promotion.
But for Song Yang, publicity is indeed needed, but Song Yang does not need to do his best to promote it himself. Some people will "do this for" Song Yang. If they are bypassed, maybe it will be a little troublesome.
Coughed, Song Yang took out a check in front of Viola present, as well as the media and reporters, and solemnly handed it to Viola.
"I came here at the invitation of Director Viola. This street has witnessed the history of Italians in New York and in America. As Director Viola said, it should not be forgotten. The Bruno Family Foundation is willing to Donate $5 million to Viola Trustees, users to maintain street furniture in Italytown and improve the lives of the community..."
Song Yang didn't mention the Italian Foundation, but bit Viola's words deliberately, and told other Italians present in the community that the money was kept and taken care of by Viola. If they wanted to To get it, you have to find Viola.
Seeing the check handed over by Song Yang, Viola smiled on her face, held up the check in her hand, and announced to the countless Italians present, "The Bruno family is one of the most important families of Italians in America!"
The reporters and media present filmed this scene with a tacit understanding. They were invited here to film this scene where a wealthy Italian family blends in with an ordinary Italian family.
