Since the early hours of the morning, hundreds of media professionals from all walks of life have gathered at the foot of the Alice Building in the center of Los Angeles. When the noon sun shines on the glass curtain wall of this unprecedented skyscraper, the brilliant light is sprinkled all around, and countless reporters have consumed countless films.www.biquge.info

Zoe Barnes was one of the reporters on the spot, and while Volkswagen Electronics is headquartered in Seattle, the building's significance is anything but local. Therefore, it is no wonder that "Silicon Valley" magazine even sent a camp of three editors, and the guests invited to this inauguration ceremony are too representative!

"Look, look! Gates and Allen!"

Zoe saw the passengers stepping out of the car: "Microsoft's representative is here, and the two founders are here! Missandei, do you see that?"

"Of course I did, oh my god, I knew I should have brought a wide-angle lens!" Shrill voice, Zoe's college friend Missandei was also there, and ABC TV even sent an OB truck to the scene, but her job was to take enough photos.

There were so many reporters around that Zoe couldn't even make it to the first three rows, but the security personnel on the scene were not obligated to make it easy for her. The ceremony was going on step by step, and the bodyguards in black suits were all standing in various positions like Secret Service heroes, their eyes behind sunglasses sweeping around sharply, like the posture of a president.

"Hey, Zoe, leave Gates and them alone. Donnie appeared behind Zoe, patted her on the shoulder, and said, "Don't you think these bodyguards are also worth reporting? I remember, Alice Wang put her security company on the East Coast, these should be the security guards of that company, right? You see their temperament, they are not ordinary people." ”

Of course, Zoe noticed this, but she immediately gave Donnie a roll of the eye: "We're Popular Electronics, man, we're not a general newspaper and we're not from Wall Street, do security companies have anything to do with Silicon Valley?

"I just think ......"

"Go to Missandei, maybe she'll spend the night with you for this reminder?"

Blasting away the annoying co-workers, Zoe continues to follow the entire process of the inauguration. Silicon Valley's super-rich girl has built her private mansion, and her peer business has gathered, even if Popular Electronics is a technical magazine, and the geek audience will definitely want to read it!

"Ladies and gentlemen......"

After a while, loudspeakers rumbled on both sides of the square, and it was the mayor of Los Angeles who began to speak. Zoe looked next to her, Missandei's ABC colleague, wasn't he talking in front of the camera? This was the time for the general media to focus on it, but for Popular Electronics, it only needed to focus on a limited number of key points.

"Hey, Zoe. Donnie rushed over to take a few pictures, and then he came back again: "I just asked somebody, you know sitting there...... yes, who is that lady in black there?"

Zoe looked out. In front of the building, the crowd on both sides of the podium is, of course, those big shots, like the two CEOs of Microsoft who got off the bus before, are standing beside Alice Wang at this moment. As for the woman Downey was talking about......

Blonde hair, tall and charming, it seems that she has just reached the age of thirty, which executive is it? Zoe and Donnie were both a little late, and when they arrived, there were actually quite a few people gathered at the scene, and of course they didn't see where she came from.

"Who?"

"Sophie Wang!"

"Damn, won't you!?"

Zoe was stunned for a moment, and immediately picked up the camera and clicked, but then pulled her throat and said, "Her mother?Donnie, I think that woman is two years older than Amy, right?

"Oh Zoe, don't think that everyone is as virtuous as Amy's old woman. Knowing the answer, the mother of a genius girl in Silicon Valley, Donnie slapped wildly as if he had taken a stimulant, and the long gun and short cannon were not close: "I have hardly seen her in public, she is so beautiful!"

Well, pretty is pretty, Zoe pouted. Since Downey was so interested in the news, she could focus on other things, such as the Bossaks on the other side of the podium, who were one of the three founders of Cisco, who did their best in running the business on a day-to-day basis. Of course, these are Alice Wang's own people, speaking of the invited guests......

"Oracle boss Larry Ellison. "The late-blooming database company owner is many years older than Gates, Allen, and Bossak, and is forty-five this year. Although he started his business late, the company's development speed is not slow, as for the reason why he can become a distinguished customer today...... Cisco and Oracle, the Internet and databases, do you need to emphasize this relationship?

It can really be said that there is news everywhere, it doesn't matter what else matters, the topic of the next development of the company, but the content that "Popular Electronics" pays great attention to. Zoe didn't even listen to what the mayor had to say, and the governor didn't pay any attention to it, she patronized to think about how many elaborate manuscripts she could hand in.

In addition, the chairman of Intel Corporation and the proposer of Moore's Law, Gordon Moore, was also present. Yes, Alice Wang is still a director of Intel Corporation, although since she joined, Intel's development has only been as planned...... Of course, it's on track, but now that the building is built, it's clear that the company will have to set up an office as well?

"The Silicon Valley conglomerate, the Alice Building. Writing this title in this book, Zoe reckoned, maybe it could be used directly in the article. The Los Angeles Times has long explored the tone of this teenage tycoon, as an entrepreneur with industries all over the world, the most direct role of private office buildings is, of course, industrial integration!

"Ladies and gentlemen......"

Finally, when the bureaucratic style ended, a girl in a white dress finally stepped onto the high platform. When Alice's voice finally resounded in the square, the flashing lights of the reporters swept in like a storm!

"It's a great honor to have the Mayor and Governor in attendance. ”

Standing on the high platform, looking at the dense crowd of reporters in front of her, she smiled calmly. The flash flashes casually, thinking that this can make her stage frightened, it is really ridiculous.

"The completion of this building is truly a miracle for us in the city of Los Angeles, and it is an honor for us Californians. A 2,100-foot tall building sits right here for us. The example of Manhattan shows that it will stand here, and it will stand here for a hundred years, and it will last for a hundred years!"

In the last two sentences, the girl's voice was sonorous and powerful, and there was a lot of applause from celebrities around her. The mayor, the governor and many legislators, the tech community in Silicon Valley and Seattle and the local business elite in the City of Angels all looked at the girls on the stage with all kinds of eyes. Envy, jealousy, happiness, gratification, friendliness, kindness, standing on the stage, Alice can easily distinguish the meaning in the eyes of these people, and it is so easy that she recognizes the attitude of half of the high-ranking people in Los Angeles towards her.

"What to say, Mr. Mayor and Mr. Governor have already done it for me. Now standing on the stage, what I'm going to say is about something that not many people know yet. ”

Zoe stood in the middle of the media crowd, the recording equipment was turned on early, and the audience was silent. What did the nouveau riche girl who built this skyscraper want to do? She is growing so fast that many people have to pay close attention to her wealth and influence.

"There are all people here, you all know how many companies I have under my umbrella and how many levels of companies I am associated with. Yes, there's Cisco, there's Microsoft, which I'm a stakehold, thank you Gates, thank you Allen. At the same time, there are A&A, which I bought out and recently re-listed, and a series of small companies such as Electronic Arts Games. I also asked the concierge staff to distribute the introduction brochure related to the content, and I believe everyone knows about it. ”

Hearing this, Zoe was a little confused.

"Manuals, what manuals?"

"We're late......" Donnie muttered beside him, and immediately a colleague in the distance pulled out a manual, and he smacked his lips, "But it doesn't matter, anyway, we're from the magazine company, let Missandei and them hurry up." ”

“…… When the Alice Building is completed, I will integrate all the related companies and settle here. Believe me, guys, and allow me to take pride in the fact that I can assure you that this new group that has formed around me will definitely grow at an astonishing rate. So, don't worry about the office building being too big, trust me, it's only going to get more and more crowded. ”

Oh my God!

Zoe really regrets why she stayed in "Popular Electronics"! Look at the continuous exclamations of the media people around her, look at their crazy photos and crazy note-taking like JFK assassination! She is even glad that this is not free Q&A time, otherwise this square must become Times Square on Chinese New Year's Eve!

"Xinxing Group!" Donnie screamed at first, but then suddenly said: "Yes, yes, Alice-Wang has also come to set up a group company, but how should she name it? No, no, the group company is a form of sub-parent holding, but when it comes to the consortium, it seems to be ......."

Before he could finish talking to himself, Alice-Wang said a loud word, which made the audience suddenly silent again.

"I am announcing that Ambrera Capital Investments Limited, is officially established today. ”
