Going Into the World!

It's been a few days since I left the end of the century. Unfortunately, I planned to go into town to have a wonderful end of the 20th century that I could never turn back to. I was a little excited about fireworks and performances in the city, but after going to Jennifer's house and hanging out with my family, I went to the future wife like Mo did, but I thought I shouldn't just leave without seeing him, so after waiting, I gathered my relatives together and became sober.

"Phew! I was good at not going downtown. I almost didn't want to cause any trouble. ’

Later, it was heard that the number of people from the Ferry Building next to the harbor to the end of Market Street, an estimated 1.2 million people were on the street.

Of course, it can't be troublesome, but it's a bit severe, considering this isn't an annual event. Drunk young men wrecked shops, set cars on fire, group fights, nearly a hundred injured, and three or four dead.

One small street became a mess, but I was good at not going out with my beauty for no reason. I don't have a bodyguard yet, but I have to be careful. I've made a lot of money so far, but if I don't spend it and go wrong, it's only my loss.

The sky is still blue and glorious today. When the new year came to light, there was a ‘slight error in the calculation of time' and 'an error in the interpretation,' shouting that the world would be destroyed. ’There were some people who were saying nonsense such as back and forth. Now most of them are out of their minds, and some of them are ridiculous enough to believe it again and believe in a new calculated end. I feel like I want to open my head.

The ‘Armageddon’ of chaos did not come, nor did he need Noah's Ark. The prediction that the world would be ruined was never a lie. I'm thinking this is proof that it's not ruined.

Descartes, the philosopher of some kind, says, "I think, therefore I exist." ’That's what I said.

I didn't hear you say the plane went down. Old computer systems that were built in the past can only calculate two digits by 99 years, so by 2000, the world was in a commotion about the great chaos of computer systems.

I don't know how many consulting agencies have taken this money from companies or public institutions for an excuse. It is said that the sum of the money spent on the Y2K problem going from 99 years to 2000 worldwide would exceed several times the national budget of any country.

At midnight on January 1, those who were hesitant did not hear anything until the next morning. I later found out that there were a few small computer errors somewhere, but I was embarrassed to send them to the article because they were too small.

People thought something big would happen, but no one said anything big would hurt anyone.

I don't know if it's because I'm really good at preparing, or if consulting firms just beat people up with tools and took money.

I come to work at the company and try to think of a new year, but I really don't know what to do with this. I've done too much already.

Phew! I have to take care of something now...

When I tie my head like this and think about it, I have to have a cup of coffee with evil, but Eva is on vacation. I told my sister I'd go to Poland to see my mom, but she won't be back for another week.

I only drink this every day, and then I want to ride it myself.

“I'll stop by Starbucks later. By the way, Mr. Starbucks is great with a cup of coffee. Aren't you jealous?” I just have something, but I'm also jealous of how well others do.

“Thyr ~, thyr ~” The phone rings and breaks my mind.

“Hello?"

“Chow! Happy New Year, John. ”

Mr. Lipton called me from the beginning.

Chow means "hello," originally from Vietnamese. How did this happen? It went into Italy and became Italian. It became a daily shark, and later it crossed over to the U.K. and became a unique English word.

Usually it's just friends and people with faces, but seeing Mr. Lipton telling me this, it probably worked when he went to the last holiday party.

“Happy New Year. So, what brings you here on your first day of the new year?” Today is the 3rd of January, so it is not the first day of the new year, but it is the first day of work.

“Haha. Do I have to call you if I have to? I'm disappointed.”

“No, I didn't mean it like that. I'm surprised it's today. I'm always happy to hear from you. Thank you for your kind words at the party last time. Now that I think about it, that was really helpful. ”

“Is that so? Haha. As expected, you are a young man who knows manners. Not like the kids these days. ”

No one hates being praised or respected. ‘That was really helpful.’ There is no one who would hate it. It's the same for both the president and the general public. Again, praise is a bribe without pay.

“Oh no, I told you the other day, didn't I? I want you to meet someone. ”

“Yes?! Is that why you called?” I was a little moved. I'm not a player and I'm sure the administration will be busy, but thank you for calling me on the first day of the new year for that.

Hmm. Now that I think about it, maybe the economy won't be too busy.

“Haha. This is all for later. Do you have a minute next week, by the way? ”

“Next week? Yeah, I don't know what's going on, but I need some time. You called me. ”

“No, you're mistaken. I told you I had a friend. Meet him. I spoke to them today, so they'll probably introduce you to some people. ”

Mr. Paulson, isn't he the president of Goldman Sachs? Goldman Sachs is an ultra-high investment finance group in 130 years with 40,000 employees. I'm a little nervous about this.

‘No, but it's no big deal compared to Bill Gates, right? You scared the shit out of me. ’

He is a great figure, but Bill Gates is currently the richest man in the world. I worked with such a person, but I don't have to worry about it. And I'm wealthier, if you ask me.

“Thank you very much. Since you care so much, I'll treat you to a lovely evening later. ”

Even if we help each other out, we're grateful. I expressed my gratitude politely.

“Ahhh. I'll take that under advisement. Good luck then.”

After making a short appointment and hanging up the phone, I thought, if I go to China this time, I'll have to set a course.

I can't be directly involved in the far reaches of China, nor do I have a foothold like this. Besides, unlike other countries, it's not easy how to run a business.

“Hm. Now I'm told, should we plant one of these in the company? You want to get in on who you're meeting this time? What about a partnership?“ I'm muttering to myself, but I don't think I went to China for a reason.

His country has many different ways of doing business, so the more I think about it, the more troublesome it is.

‘No, I have a headache because I'm trying to eat something all at once. Let's just relax a little bit. It's not time to be greedy. ’

At first, I tried to use Robin to do something about it, but the more I investigate, the less likely I am. I couldn't hold on tight enough to it, so I decided to do something different.

‘Also, I need to plant my informants in the company. If you give me some money, if I'm good, I'll take care of it, right?’ I'm going to plant one of my people in a company that no one knows about.

If you give me a few more bucks a year, there's gonna be a line of people lining up for my informants. A few ducks are needed everywhere.

The white clouds that look out the window seem to be waving at me. I sat in the seat and stretched my legs.

“Susan, can I get another glass of wine? ”

I called the flight attendant. So, how do you know his name? Haha. There's a reason for everything.

“Yes, John. But there's gonna be a meal soon. Are you sure you're okay with that? ”

“Really? That's fine.” You don't have to have another drink to get out of the meal.

Susan smiles kindly and glances at me, then returns to her seat.

"Hmm. Where should I look this time?" Let's also take a look at the Daewoo business in China. Ah. There's no need to bother going there. Should I just start a company? 'I came in a hurry, but I haven't set an exact schedule yet. I have to go and think about it.

'I didn't know Clarkson had friends in China, by the way. Is that why the world is so big and so small?'

In the old days, I used to make friends with foreign friends by calling them penpals, but it was not an easy effort to send and receive letters. Now that the Internet has arrived, I can easily make friends anywhere in the world if I just want to. Of course, there are language constraints.

When I first came to America to study, I asked for my loneliness on a computer when no one knew me, and I used to do various forums. Clarkson then met and became close with a group of programmable computer users, who are actually two years older than me.

As a student, I lived in the same city, but it was not easy to meet in person, but I felt at ease that we had the same hobbies and ideas for young people.

That's how Clarkson introduced me to Yahoo through his best friend online. In a way, Clarkson is a friend who gave me a starting point to grow like this.

Now they're studying something at a company called Agilent. He used to love programming, but he majored in electrical electronics, so he joined a company to study it, and he said he was working on a project to make lighting devices for computers nowadays.

Yesterday I stumbled across Clarkson on the street. I've been in touch for a while, but it was nice to meet you since we were both busy and different fields. I stopped by Starbucks to have a conversation like this, and this time I'm going to China, and the main thing is, you said you knew someone.

Apparently, I met a friend of mine at an internet forum that I was working on for a while, and he said he does some internet business in China. After that, I was no longer able to go into Yahoo and do business, but Clarkson has still been in touch with his online friends at the time. Yesterday, I also emailed him his contact information in Beijing.

“Here, come this way. The meal is ready,” Suzanne calls, thinking to herself. I moved to the dining table.

“Come, sit over here.” Mr. Paulson has given me a seat. Henry, Director of Asia, also sits there.

Yes, I am on a plane to Goldman Sachs to China. In the United States, one or two large corporations have private jets, and Goldman Sachs, the world's largest corporation, is said to have generations. Of course, the largest private plane is ridden by the CEO, Mr. Paulson.

“Thank you. How many days are you staying this time, by the way? ”

“I can see that. Well, maybe a couple of days, but I'll know when I get there.” It's nice to have a car plane to do. You don't have to book an airplane, and if you want to go, you don't have to. I'd like to have one of these, but I'm still a little...

“By the way, can I ask you about someone I'd like you to meet? Well, I thought it might help to know. ”

I only heard the big name, so I wanted to hear more information. The more you know, the better to deal with.

“Oh, you know, Wangchisan, who enjoys philosophical discussions and bad jokes with historians. He's good at solving problems, and he's got a lot of thrust, so he's got some credibility from above. It's also a rare breed that understands our United States and cares deeply about our relationship. ”

As if he knew a person called Wangchisan Mountain well, Mr. Paulson commended his personality and other pros and cons.

“A historian? Ripton said he was with the Chinese during the financial crisis in '98. Aren't you an economist by nature? ”

Historians and economists don't get in my head very well. A little different, a lot different, isn't it?

“Haha. That's what China is all about. You don't have to do this because you majored in something, but China is worse. Wangchisan is actually the man who used to be the Deputy Prime Minister of State, so how did he suddenly become an expert in economics? John, did you know that in China, the Thai Party and Shanghai are fighting each other? ”

“Yes. I've studied somewhat, but I don't know the details. ”

In fact, I read a few books about China before I arrived, but only a few of them came out of the common sense. Funny thing is, in China, most things about family or individuals of government officials are classified as confidential and the media has control over the news.

Google's search for Wangchisan results in only a name and no details.

“The Thai Party is a group of children and relatives of the Communist Revolutionary Party of China, which still has a shadow on it. Is it right to call me a nobleman a little too much? By the way, President Zhang Zemin is from Shanghai, the Dissident Clan. If it's just hard, you can think of it as a Democrat and a Republican. ”

He also gave detailed advice on who is likely to catch the next power and how to do business in China. It surprised me that I know more about China than I thought, but I learned so much today.

"Hmmm, it's the Thai Party. We're doing this all by ourselves. I also share a seat and play well with this. ’

I decided not to think complicated. I'm gonna go get an introduction and do some business together. From what Mr. Paulson has to say, he still has quite a network, so if you want to share it properly, you'll like it. I don't have to clean up my business until I come to China. It's just a good thing.

Mr. Paulson continues to say that the more we know about China, the more complicated it is. This is common sense. Fists rather than law, I think it is a country with power rather than principle.

[Hery Paulson joined Goldman Sachs in 1974 and worked for the Nixon administration prior to joining Goldman Sachs, the best Chinese way to visit China for more than 70 business trips since his 98th year as chief executive officer and subsequently the Minister of Finance. In fact, Henry Paulson and Mt. Wang Chi have known each other since 98 to 99.]
