0164 The Charm of Tetris
As soon as Tang Huan returned to the United States, he encountered something that was both unexpected and difficult to decide.
Due to the popularity of Tetris and the Overlord console in Europe, he was invited to attend the opening ceremony of this year's Summer Olympics in Moscow.
However, in protest against the Soviet invasion of Afghanistan in 1979, on March 21, 1980, US President Jimmy ? Carter announced that the United States would boycott the XXII Olympic Games.
The U.S. decision was echoed by more than 50 countries around the world, including Japan, Canada, West Germany and China. Other countries have announced that they will not attend the Games as national delegations, and that they will only be replaced by the Olympic flag for admission to the opening ceremony and after victory.
In the original time and space, only 80 countries participated in the Olympic Games, and Moscow spent a total of 9 billion US dollars to prepare for the Olympic Games, a record high.
With such a well-prepared feast, the Soviet Union certainly couldn't let it go cold, and all kinds of unofficial campaign activities began, and the popularity of the game "Tetris" in the Soviet Union made Tang Huan the first target to be selected.
Sitting in the office of the Shennong Fund, Tang Huan rubbed his eyebrows and muttered to himself, what are you two world bosses fighting and affecting us little fish.
If you go, I'm afraid it will affect the prestige value that the United States has managed to brush up; If he doesn't go, the market share of Eastern Europe and the Soviet Union will be very covetous, and it will be heartbreaking if it is blocked.
In this way, the planned trip to Europe may become a precursor to this matter.
Tang Huan looked at his public relations consultant McKenna and asked, "How do I choose?" ”
McKenna smiled, "You have that question." Is there an intention to go? ”
"I'm just a businessman. The trick they wrestle with in politics. I'm not interested, and I can't afford to provoke it, but with such a large market space, it's really hard to give up. ”
McKenna also had a headache, and for a while, it was difficult to give any advice.
Of course, Tang Huan is not the only one of his clients, such as Steve Jobs, but there is no doubt about it. The fastest development, and now the most dazzling, is undoubtedly Tang Huan, just look at this high-end office in the center of San Francisco's Financial Street to know how much the other party has laid.
Because of this partnership, McKenna's own status has risen with the tide, just like an agent who has become a gold agent because he has a superstar in his hand, and naturally, his income is also more lucrative.
"I don't think it's a big deal. After all, you're just a businessman and don't have any official background. Whether you agree or not, it's your personal choice, and others have nothing to blame. McKenna said slowly.
"Hollywood should also pay attention to political correctness when making movies, and high-tech industries of strategic significance should not be avoided." Tang Huan looked at McKenna sincerely, "As a minority, I finally have the status I have today, but I don't want to fall into the dust because of some unnecessary factors." ”
"Don, you're thinking too much, this is America, and the rich will always have some privileges within the rules." Hearing Tang Huan's sincere words, McKenna, who felt that he was deeply trusted, was greatly moved, and hurriedly comforted, "Don't you have contacts with the mayor of San Francisco and the mayor of California, they may be able to help you get advice from the White House through the channels of the Democratic Party. ”
"Well, it's an insurance idea." Tang Huan nodded.
"In addition, you should think that it is a very honorable thing to sell American products to the Soviet Union, and to fascinate the locals, and to earn them money, and to provide us with considerable employment opportunities for ourselves, and what could be more understandable to the people." Speaking of this, McKenna shrugged his shoulders, "We just need to secretly guide public opinion in this direction, even if you go to Moscow, it shouldn't affect your prestige." ”
"Your analysis seems to make sense." Tang Huan laughed, "If I can kidnap a beautiful woman back, everyone will be able to talk about it even more." ”
Hearing this joke, McKenna also laughed loudly, "Don, with your charm, you can definitely do it, and that female ship king is an example." ”
"Then, in terms of public opinion and public relations, I have to ask you to bother more." Tang Huan, who is as good as a stream, made a decision.
"You know, you are now my golden sign." McKenna nodded.
Tang Huan then discussed various details with him for a while, as well as possible accidents, before sending him away.
In fact, how could Tang Huan not have a plan in his heart, but he needed an American like McKenna to stand entirely on an objective standpoint, express his views, and after adopting the other party's suggestions, wouldn't he be more motivated.
Since he came to the Shennong Fund, Tang Huan asked his subordinates to take a look at the report, and the data on official affairs was directly and quickly turned over, but he paid special attention to private affairs.
Including the income from those computer books, Tang Huan had a private amount of money in his hand, which was basically not needed, so he directly entrusted it to Shennong Fund to help manage it, and speculated according to the information in his previous life.
At the beginning, it was less than a million dollars in total, so to speak, if you lose, you can't hurt your muscles and bones, and if you win, you won't attract attention, and he doesn't care very much.
Perhaps it is precisely because of this relaxed mentality that the money has risen and turned upside down, and now it has exceeded 10 million dollars, and the growth rate is like the game of putting wheat grains on the chessboard, the first grid is one grain, the second grid is two, and the third grid is four...... If this doubling continues, the results are becoming more and more terrifying.
In the face of this kind of easy profiteering, Tang Huan looked at it very indifferently, realistic speculation is not a simple game of putting wheat grains, maybe when you put it in the tenth grid, it will attract the attention of others.
You must know that the activity platform of the speculator is officially led to build, just like a mahjong parlor, you win a lot of money through thousands of skills, and the other players are miserable and exit, the dealer can't pump water, and it's strange if you don't lift the table to settle accounts.
Tang Huan withdrew part of the surplus of this money and transferred it to the account of Xiangjiang. Obviously, in addition to the largest mahjong parlor in the United States, Tang Huan also wants to go to the mahjong parlor in Xiangjiang to play.
I have to say that Tang Huan still respects the financial system very much, and the company's money is very separate from private money.
Because of the fact that the Moscow Summer Olympics invited him to attend the opening ceremony, Tang Huan had not had time to go home, so after staying in the office of the Shennong Fund for a while, he got up and left.
After arriving at his aunt's apartment, Tang Huan found Deng Lijun sitting in the living room reading a book.
"Ah Huan, you're back." Seeing that it was Ailang, Deng Lijun showed a gentle and sweet smile on her face, and Tang Huan was flickering in her heart, and she couldn't help but calculate in her heart that she hadn't been intimate with the queen of the song for several months. (To be continued......)
