Rebirth of the Tech Madman

Chapter 462: The human touch under the aura of wealth

As Tang Huan has had a lot of close contact with the public media during the recent period, reporters who have become familiar with each other have asked more and more questions.

Soon, someone brought the topic to video games, "Don, did you know that Atari's video game "e.t. Aliens" has been selling well. Would you regret that you missed such a good opportunity in the first place."

"Congratulations to Atari for digging a gold mine." Tang Huan said frankly after complimenting his old opponent with a hearty heart: "Maybe I missed it, but do you know what the box office of the movie "et Alien" is in North America? 410 million U.S. dollars. Therefore, you must be content."

"Tang, does your contentment refer to the movie box office of "et aliens", or is it what Hollywood is talking about. You made half of Hollywood's annual income?" The other side asked persistently, and the reporters next to him followed up. He raised his ears.

Everyone is so concerned about Tang Huan's wealth. In 1982, Gein made too much money in Hollywood. The summer file with the best business opportunities was almost completely divided by his film company and Paramount.

The latter's movies are "anandagentleman"-"The Officer and the Gentleman" and "Star Trek", while the former's movies are "et Alien", "Rocky 3", "Noisy Ghost" and "thebestintexas"-" "Spring City is full of flowers", the number is twice that of Paramount, and other films such as "Conan the Barbarian" and "First Blood" also performed well.

Among them, the film "et aliens" alone earned about $200 million in copy rental income. Together with the contribution of other blockbuster movies, Tang Huan earned half of Hollywood's annual income, which quickly spread. .

"Although this statement is a bit exaggerated, I can understand everyone's incredible feelings." Tang Huan did not evade this question either. After smiling sincerely, he thoughtfully said: "This kind of one or two companies dominate. The phenomenon actually shows that the Hollywood industry with a long history has indeed fallen to the bottom. The entire industry must think about how to recast its former glory."

"So, Tang, what do you think?" The reporters hurriedly asked thoughtfully.

"In the past few decades, Hollywood has almost been divided up by big consortiums. Although this has strengthened the financial strength to resist the risk of box office loss, it has not yet achieved its position. The problems facing the film industry. The root cause lies mainly in people. Entertainment methods are becoming more and more diversified. Movies are just a choice. So, I personally think that Hollywood needs to integrate with other media."

Having said that, Tang Huan waved his hand, "How do I feel digressed? Shouldn't you ask me questions about Fangyuan Computer and the computer industry?"

Amidst the roar of laughter, the reporters finally got back to business.

...

With Tang Huan's current popularity, his words and deeds will naturally be sent to the public by the major media at the fastest speed. Then it was discussed and analyzed in order to sum up the so-called way of success, or be deduced and swayed to entertain the public.

Those who are interested can more or less guess how likely this Silicon Valley upstart is to compete with himself in the future.

...

The American media once again proved that they are all-pervasive. They dug up the origin of Tang Huan's bald head image.

Although Tang Huan is a little unwilling to do this, he still has no choice but to speak freely. The media is here to be powerful. Besides, they are gossiping at the same time. I also praised him for his human touch by the way.

But what happened next made Tang Huan furious.

A reporter from the "New York Post" went so far as to sneak into the treasure hospital, secretly took a picture of Betty, and published it, side by side with Tang Huan's bald head, and wrote a very misleading headline-" Is this the daughter of America's richest man?".

There is no doubt that this report is extremely attractive. The newspaper of the "New York Post" that day was out of stock.

Tang Huan immediately asked his lawyer to draft a statement on his behalf, condemning the unscrupulous New York Post, unscrupulously disturbing a terminally ill child, putting him under public attention, and deliberately misleading Betty and his relationship , Its heart can be punishable.

The New York Post, founded in 1801, is one of the oldest newspapers in the United States. At the end of 1976, it was bought by Murdoch. The style of the newspaper changed drastically. It began to increase violence and sex-related news, as well as scandals and cases. The report, and to attract readers through exaggeration and exaggerated language.

The style of this tabloid newspaper, all kinds of no lower limit is simply commonplace, where Tang Huan's dissatisfaction is concerned-"There is a huge media empire standing behind us, you have the ability to bite me for such trivial things."

Tang Huan saw that he couldn't ask the "New York Post" to apologize, so he stopped talking nonsense, and directly took a complaint and took him to court.

Originally, readers have become accustomed to the non-adjustment of the "New York Post", after all, there is more than one pornographic newspaper in the United States. But unexpectedly, Tang Huan became more real.

But because of this, many people began to feel that Tang Huan's persistence was justified, and certain thresholds could not be broken, and that tabloids like the "New York Post" must be hit.

Suddenly, saliva was flying all over the sky, but the "New York Post" was deadheaded, and had no intention of bowing its head.

...

In this hustle and bustle with discordant notes, the time came on Friday, January 14, 1983, when the much-anticipated Fangyuan Computer Company was listed on the New York Stock Exchange.

At this time, the reporters discovered that these Silicon Valley guys have made new tricks. The listing clock was not knocked by Tang Huan or John Chambers and other executives. Instead, it was replaced by eight middle-level managers of Fangyuan Computer Company. And grassroots employees.

Amidst the cheers, the bell that symbolized the wealth of money rang, Fangyuan Computer Company's shares began to be publicly sold at an issue price of $30, and within an hour ~www.wuxiahere.com~ 10,000 shares were sold out.

At the close of the day, Fangyuan Computer's stock price closed at $42, and the entire company suddenly became a behemoth with a market value of more than $20 billion.

And in the following days, this upward momentum will not diminish at all, just like a small ibm.

This wave of wealth myths made several veteran figures who followed Tang Huan become multi-millionaires. As for millionaires, hundreds of them have sprung up like bamboo shoots after a rain.

Tang Huan, whose personal shareholding is close to 40%, has soared by billions of dollars. He has become the world's richest man with a net worth of tens of billions, and has become more and more of a Silicon Valley upstart.

The listing of Fangyuan Computer Corporation has broken and created many jaw-dropping records, especially how the first round of financing of more than 1 billion US dollars will be spent, which makes people scratching their heads with curiosity.

So the reporters stayed at the Waldorf Astoria Hotel where the Fangyuan Computer Company Investors and Media Appreciation Dinner was held, waiting for Tang Huan to answer questions. (To be continued.
