Chapter Seventy-Seven: Fooling and Being Fooled
The office space of Moder and Med's company is also in a garage with a tethered dog.
Of course, the place where they actually stay is the home next to the garage. Both have legitimate jobs, one is a retired Air Force captain and now has a job flying planes for the government. A person's work as a system engineer is to process and improve those office software every day.
It is the fashion of the moment to start a company and start a business, and these two people really set up a company through that bet.
The game that was released, that is that flight simulation game. The platform for issuance is 2600 at Atari. In the beginning, as long as Moder was displayed on the street and peddled in front of the store, the sales were considerable. However, with the proliferation of a large number of inferior games on Atari consoles, players have lost faith in video games.
Their "Space Flight" has also become difficult to sell. In desperation, Moder first pretended to be a customer and called the store to inquire, and then appeared as a dealer to get orders.
People are forced, as long as they are forced to be helpless, they have their own methods.
Of course, the only one who bothered the two races was Moder, and Dmitry was very relaxed. Because when two people bet, it was very clear. Make games by Dmide, and sell by Moder.
In addition to completing his own job as a plane flight recently, Moder is busy with the company's affairs. Among these things in the company, in addition to pretending to be a ghost to fool dealers, another very important thing is to find investors.
In the 80s of the 20th century, there was a very enthusiastic entrepreneurial wave in the United States. It can almost be regarded as a national entrepreneurship. All of a sudden. Countless companies have sprung up on the land of the United States. This also caused it to be difficult to find a good company name when starting a company in the United States.
Because. The companies that were founded may have come up with a good name. And then I quit. Occupy the pit and don't. Good names are given by dogs.
In the beginning, most of the companies were founded in their own garage offices. After ups and downs, there are always many companies that fail, and some that succeed. At this time, they will get out of the garage and move into what looks like a tall office building, and be neighbors with some tall and tall businesses.
Later, when the business is better, it is possible to build the headquarters building by itself. Then, it is the annual drama of selling buildings that everyone likes to see.
Just like investors will have information about the business, these small businesses are in their hands. There is also a list of investors.
Modell flipped through the thick stack of investor profiles and wondered which investor he should contact.
Turning the pages, he didn't know which investor he should look for.
The reason for this is that the video game industry is a minefield right now, and no investor wants to get involved.
At this time, he saw a new investor in the newly obtained investor handbook. According to the information, he is not an American, and he is very young. A series of investments have recently been made. All for some keyboard factories that are on the verge of bankruptcy, or some keyboard-related companies that have just begun to be established.
That's him.
Modell looked at the contact information on it and picked up the microphone again.
He chose this man for the simple reason that he was not because he was rich. But because he is a foreigner and should not be familiar with the situation in the United States, it is better to persuade him to be optimistic about the company's prospects.
In other words. Moder thinks that this foreign wronged leader is easy to deceive.
Invest, invest. You can't succeed every time, but you will fail. Take someone else's money. Carrying out their own failures, where to find such a good thing.
"Hey, hello, are you Mr. Lin Yan?" Modell skillfully changed to a kind tone and asked Lin Yan on the other end of the phone.
"I'm Lin Yan, who are you?" Lin Yan held the phone and thought in his head who might be the person who called him. Are those people in whom he invests in businesses? Not quite like that, this tone was characteristic of the voice, and he didn't remember hearing it.
However, he didn't dare to directly determine that this was a riot-nuisance call. In this day and age, not only is the cost of talking expensive, but the quality of fairy tales is not high. The voice of a real person is often very different from the voice on the phone.
"Hello, I am the owner of a business and I would like to ask you to invest in my business." Modell said methodically. His mind was full of ways to persuade Lin Yan. As a salesperson, the most important skill is to flicker. When negotiating with customers, you can exaggerate the effect of your products by ten times and a hundred times, as long as the negotiation is successful, everything will be fine.
Lin Yan understood that he was wrong, this call was not from those companies that he had invested in, and he had something to find him. Nor is this hotel a phone that offers special services.
However, it is not a little strange that the call to the special services is made by men.
It's not too strange these days. Lin Yan saw that the streets were full of powerful and tall women, and they had already developed immunity. These people are not the same thing as the girls in his impression.
In such a comparison, he thinks that Chiba Yuki, Mayu by the river or something, are all very cute and cute.
There is one sentence that Lin Yan doesn't know, that is, Europeans and Americans think that Asians are all perverts of pedophilia. There are white people who travel to Asia just to experience what it's like to experience pedophilia.
Since the Industrial Revolution, the civilization of the whole world has been dominated by the West. Therefore, the relatively backward Asian countries. For European and American countries, there is an inferiority complex mentality in it.
Therefore, Asian women who have been educated by capitalism will also prefer these white people.
Therefore, it has also caused a more interesting phenomenon. A man who can't even find a wife in his home country, as soon as he arrives in another country, he instantly becomes a winner in life.
Originally, they didn't have many survival skills, but when they went to these countries to become foreign teachers, and then, while they were resting, they would go to a bar, and many girls would stick up to them.
It's a lot more cost-effective than going straight to the house, and you don't even have to pay for the room yourself. And those girls will also feel normal. They have long been accustomed to this kind of life.
"Do you also make keyboards? Want my investment? Lin Yan asked the person on the other end of the phone.
"No, we're not. We are a video game company and would like to get your investment, can we talk to you? ”
"Good. You say the time and place. (To be continued......)
