Chapter 212: Go to the police station
The alliance leader of the "Super Heavenly God Emperor" is mighty, and another alliance leader has been added to this book!!
But where there is a 100% success rate, Henry won't let it become 90%!
The West German publishing house can get the novel resources, but if you want to import a lot of traffic, you have to do other ways, and undoubtedly the best way is to introduce the huge traffic of the ICQ chat software!!
The West German publishing house is a website, and ICQ is an interface, and a "IReader novel" function is added to the software interface! Click "IReader novel" to enter the IReader station!
However, the best way to achieve such a close cooperation is for both parties to become partners and set up an IReader station together, each holding a part of the shares!
So, Henry went to ICQ again.
When he arrived at ICQ, Henry told Tian Shuai what he meant.
As soon as Tian Shuai heard what Henry said, his eyes lit up, and he immediately agreed!
Regardless of whether the IReader station can make money, it is worth investing heavily if ICQ can rely on IReader to provide novel reading services for the majority of ICQ users to consolidate its position and expand its brand influence!!
"Chairman, I think it's okay, ICQ is very willing to !!cooperate with the West German Publishing House," Tian Shuai nodded at Henry, and said excitedly, "After the invention of writing, human beings are inseparable from reading, if the price of reading a book on the Internet is several times cheaper than that of a physical book, I think, it will be very popular! Therefore, it is indeed feasible to establish a toll station! Once this station develops and grows, ICQ will be able to profit a lot from it!"
"Well, yes, you're right!" Henry nodded with a smile, and then changed his mind and said, "But." I'm going to ask you to build an IReader site for more than that, but for a deeper meaning!!"
Henry said slowly: "After the development of IReader Station, it will not only be limited to novels, but will also be involved in novel and comic adaptations. Novels, film and television adaptations, etc., I want to make IReader the world's largest IP incubation base!!"
When I heard this, I suddenly felt excited!
But what does IP mean? It's not like an IP address on the Internet?
Tian Shuai looked at Henry. Ask yourself what you doubted.
"Chairman, I don't know, what does this IP mean?"
"IP stands for Intelletual-property intellectual property!! Henry explained, "IReader's goal is to make intellectual property bigger and stronger, so that it can be developed around IP, so as to achieve huge benefits and influence!
Tian Shuai nodded thoughtfully. "That is to say, if we run a novel well and make it famous, and then we will be famous, we will be able to make money with various copyrights!!"
"That's right, that's !!"
"I understand......" Tian Shuai looked at the young man in front of him who was several years younger than him, and was full of emotion in his heart. Even though he developed his own instant chat software, served as the eo of ICQ Company, and was named one of the world's top ten outstanding young people by Time Magazine, he faced his boss Henry. But I have to say that I admire!
Henry then asked about the development of the ICQ game platform, the virtual community, and the board game.
Tian Shuai told Henry that the development of the game platform will be adjusted according to the board game, so the development of the game platform will be slower than the game. At present, the development speed of board games is not very fast. Considering the game's playability, interactivity, and the game's interface design, ICQ's idea is to strive for excellence and strive to create classics, so the progress is slow.
And the same is true for virtual communities. None of them are very fast.
The official launch of the ICQ gaming platform and virtual community took at least 1992 to date.
Henry nodded when he heard this, and then chatted with his parents, and asked curiously how far his relationship with his girlfriend An Jiayi had progressed, and when he would get married, he must invite himself to drink the wedding wine!
Tian Shuai's face turned slightly red, "It's not time to talk about marriage yet, everyone is still young! Of course, you will definitely be invited to participate when you get married, I hope you can squeeze out a little time to attend our wedding at that time!"
"Hehe," Henry smiled, "no problem, I'll give you a super gift when the time comes!!"
Henry then continued to talk for a few minutes before leaving ICQ.
Not long after leaving, Karina called and said that Amgen Biopharma wanted to buy other pharmaceutical companies, asked for her opinion, and wanted to get financial support!
Henry pondered for a moment and said to Karina, "Tomorrow, you and I will go to Amgen Biopharmaceutical Company to find out about the situation!"
"Well, okay!"
After hanging up the phone, Henry remembered the news of the Fortune 500 released by Fortune magazine on July 22: "In 1991, Amgen Biopharmaceutical Company of the United States entered the Fortune 500 for the first time, and product sales in the first half of this year alone have now exceeded 600 million US dollars!!"
Amgen Biopharmaceuticals has made such a profit and made it to the top 500 companies in just a year or two because it has developed two heavyweight drugs, the injectable protein drugs Epogen and Neupogen!! which have been praised by the world's leading medical journals as two of the world's most commercialized biotech drugs!!
Epogen is used for the treatment of anemia caused by chronic renal failure and anemia for the treatment of HIV infection!
And Neupogen is used to treat neutropenia caused by tumor chemotherapy!
These two drugs have not only benefited countless hemodialysis patients and cancer chemotherapy patients, but also brought huge profits to Amgen Biopharmaceuticals, which has grown rapidly and has now grown to the point of acquiring other companies!!
Amgen Biopharma's headquarters is located in Thousand Oaks, California, close to the University of California and the California Institute of Technology, which is conducive to attracting fresh blood!
Both Henry and Karina get off the plane wearing sunglasses, which are not easy to spot. Henry and Karina are both directly well-known, especially Henry, the portrait of the richest man is offered by some people as the God of Wealth, three incense sticks a day. Bless promotion and wealth......
This time, Henry made an ad-hoc decision and did not let Karina inform Amgen Biopharmaceuticals.
Thousand Oaks, California, named after the many oak trees planted in the city, is a small city north of Los Angeles. Surrounded by mountains and beautiful scenery, it attracts many middle- and upper-class residents to settle down!
Henry and Karina strolled. It's like coming to a tourist destination, blowing a cool breeze and feeling the exotic atmosphere!
"It's a nice place, it's small and ......quiet," Henry laughed, "San Jose is developed, but it's overpopulated, and it's the most densely populated place in California!"
"Hehe, San Jose is the 10th largest city in the United States and the richest city in the United States. Of course there are more people staying......"
When Henry and Karina arrived in the center of the city, it became lively! There were many open-air restaurants here, and Henry and the two chose one nearby for lunch.
It's just that when eating, the surrounding crowd always looks at them with their eyes!
Karina whispered, "Could it be that you are recognized by them?"
"It's not me, they see you, you're recognized," Henry smiled wryly, "at dinner." You took your sunglasses off, and I'm still wearing them. Also, I'm dressed differently than usual, and I just got a hairstyle yesterday. I guess people who don't know me well won't recognize me unless I take off my glasses too......"
"Who called eating with sunglasses, it's awkward!"
"Okay, let's hurry up and eat, and leave after eating!"
At the table on the other side sat two men in their thirties, one of whom was a bald and fat man. With a big nose, big eyes, and a fierce face, his name was Matthew, and the other was a thin man, like a bamboo pole, with a rat-eyed roe deer, and his name was Zack.
Matthew whispered to Zack, "Look, isn't that woman over there Karina, the CEO of Mighty Capital Investments?
Zach turned his head to look over, then nodded and said, "That's right, it should be her, hehe, I'm very impressed by this big beauty EO, and I want to ride her in my dreams at night!"
"Hehe......" The two looked at each other, and they both showed **** eyes!
Matthew's eyes flashed with a gleam, and he reached out and touched his companion, "Zach, this is a rare opportunity, you see, isn't there a little white face next to her?
"How?"
"Hehe, let's ...... like this," said the fat man, whispering into the thin man's ear, "and we'll say that the little white face owes us money, and then ask him to pay it back." If he doesn't pay it back, we'll say let Karina help the little white face pay back!"
"What if they call the police?" asked the thin man.
"What are you afraid of! My cousin is the police officer here!!" the fat man said fearlessly, "even if the plan fails in the end, let's say that we have recognized the wrong person, what can she do to us?"
"Okay!! then let's go and ask them for money now!!" Zack's eyes narrowed, and he turned his head sharply and asked, "By the way, how much do we want?"
Matthew thought for a moment and said, "One hundred thousand dollars is not much for them to be rich!"
"Okay, let's ask for 100,000!"
At this time, Matthew and Zach walked up to Henry and Karina with a fierce look. In fact, there is no need to pretend, their own faces are fierce enough!
Henry frowned and looked at the two of them, "You guys have something?"
Matthew slapped the table and said loudly, "Of course there is something!!"
Zach answered on the side: "Boy, I've been looking for you for a long time, and I used to hide here." Hurry up and pay us back, you owe us $100,000 and still haven't paid it back!!"
At this time, Henry's bodyguards were about to rush over, and Henry waved his hand, signaling them to be calm. Now that there are two clowns who have volunteered to come to the door, Henry can have some fun. He looked at them with interest and asked, "When do I owe you money?"
Matthew said angrily: "What the hell is that you still pretend to be garlic, you lost the last time you gambled, and then you borrowed 100,000 US dollars from Lao Tzu, so you don't admit it? If you dare not admit it, Lao Tzu chopped off your hand, do you believe it or not?"
Zach smiled on the side: "Of course, if you don't have the money to pay it back, you can ask the lady next to you to help you pay it back, I know, she is an EO, very rich!"
Henry smiled, understanding their intentions.
Karina looked at Henry and said, "Let Sean chase them away, like flies, irritable ......"
Henry nodded: "Okay, I still want to tease them, since you said it, I'll let Sean get rid of them!"
Immediately, Henry made a gesture, and then a burly man came from not far away, and without saying a word, subdued Matthew and Zach, and the two of them cried and screamed. At this time, the patrol officer not far away rushed over when he heard the sound.
When Matthew saw it, he immediately shouted: "Cousin, they beat people!!"
The patrol officer was in his thirties, very tall, he was holding a baton, and looked at Henry and the others vigilantly!
Matthew reluctantly stood up, pulled his cousin patrol officer aside, and whispered: "Cousin, have you seen it? That woman is Karina, she is very rich, we just wanted to blackmail her, but we didn't want a man to come and beat us! We can't be beaten in vain, we have to pay for the medical bills, and extort 100,000 US dollars from them! If this happens, the three of us will split the account and give you 30,000 US dollars!"
Patrol Officer Leo's serious greed flashed, and he said in a deep voice: "Well, then it's decided!"
Then, Leo walked up to Henry and the others and said, "Now, the injured person wants you to pay 100,000 US dollars, do you pay it or not!"
"A little injury costs 100,000?" said Karina, disdainfully.
"If you don't, then go to the police station!!" Leo said in a very threatening tone, and made a look like he wanted the man.
Henry's bodyguard wanted to make a move, but Henry stopped him, and then frowned. $100,000 is just a small amount of money, but it's not so easy to get Henry to pay for it.
"Karina, call my lawyer and say I've been taken to the police department in Thousand Oaks, California!" Henry whispered to Karina.
"Hmm!"
Henry then said to Leo, "It was my bodyguard who beat people, and the two of them also said that I owe them money, and this matter has nothing to do with the lady next to me, now let's go, just go to the police station, anyway, I have been in the United States for so long, and I have not been to the police station for so long." Hehe, I'm lucky on this day......"
Leo frowned, "One hundred thousand dollars, you don't want to pay?"
"Let's go, officer, I'm not going to pay you a penny!!"
Leo said with a gloomy face: "Okay, since you want to squat in prison, let's go!"
Henry and Sean go to the police station with Leo, Matthew, Zach and others.
Once at the police station, Leo begins to interrogate Henry.
"What's your name, how old is it, what profession do you do?"
"I'm sorry, but I won't tell you anything until my lawyer comes!!"
When Leo heard this, he was so angry: "Okay, then I'll wait for !!"
Leo sat in the interrogation room and smoked a cigarette. After smoking one, I asked Henry again, and Henry didn't say a word, completely ignoring him!
Leo snorted coldly and smoked again.
An hour later, suddenly a young policeman staggered in.
"Officer Leo, no, it's not good!!"
"What's the fuss!!
"Just take a look outside!"
Leo frowned, stood up, and headed outside.
As soon as I arrived at the door of the police station, I heard someone say, "I'm a lawyer at Will Law Firm......"
"I'm a lawyer at Random Law Firm......"
“……”
The young man often came to Leo's side and whispered, "Officer, the group of people outside are all lawyers!!"
Leo looked up and saw that there were at least a hundred people in suits and leather shoes!
In an instant, Leo felt that the sky was dark, and he knew that he was in a big disaster, and how big would it be to invite more than a hundred lawyers to this small police station......
