Hughes has changed his temperament since he was injured in his second plane crash, from a playboy who mingled in Hollywood to a neurotic billionaire.

Oh! He was already a billionaire before that!

Howard? Hughes was America's first billionaire. His dream since he was a child was to fly the fastest plane, sleep with the most beautiful girl, or have the most mistresses?

Alex can't be known, and can only secretly guess based on the other party's behavior.

There was once a report that said that Howard? Hughes was only in New York City at the time, and he raised more than a hundred juniors, at the same time!

Think about it, more than a hundred women are waiting for Hughes to come, even if it is to go to one place every day, it will take three or four months to go all over again.

Even if there are so many women, Howard? Hughes did not leave a single offspring, and he died without children.

I have to say, it's very strange. For ordinary people, I am afraid that even if they are seventy or eighty years old, they will try their best to have a descendant, at least someone will inherit their inheritance after their death.

When Alex laughed and scolded Hughes, alluding to his absolute grandson, he also beat a little drum in his heart, for fear that he would force people too much.

This kind of remark is extremely lethal, and people from the east, west, north, south, ancient and modern, Chinese and foreign, do not want to be talked about without a queen.

But this is just Alex's negotiation strategy, hoping to make the other party lose his mind and hope that the other party will not overreact.

If it were another person, if he was hit in the sore spot by Alex mercilessly, he would probably have turned his face a long time ago. Howard? Hughes is not an ordinary person, he is a weird person with obsessive-compulsive disorder, not only acting strangely. The thinking is also strange.

Hughes didn't get angry after hearing this, he had been prepared for it for a long time. He thought for a moment and said, "I can only give you 49%!" If not, forget it! ”

Alex also knew that his request might have been too much. He was the last to accept a 49% stake. Although it can't control the company, it has to invest nearly $300 million to get that high stake.

Fortunately, the Carpenter family's company has been making money lately, especially after concentrating the family's shares in investment companies, and paying taxes has been much reduced. It's just enough to take out $300 million at once, but I'm afraid that the capital turnover will not be enough.

However, there is a kind of thing called a bank in this world, and Alex can find someone to borrow money from the bank. In addition, Hughes's aerospace company will not use so much money immediately, he can slow down, give some of it first, and slowly add the rest.

After getting this big investment done. Alex was secretly proud in his heart, he knew that this investment only made money, and he forcibly took 49% of the income from Hughes, which is not something ordinary people can do.

For Hughes, he didn't suffer much. As long as he can ensure his control over the company, he can also reduce some of the burden by one more person to pay. Now Hughes's purpose is not to make money, but to achieve his grand goals. His goal has never changed, and that is to be the best golfer in the world. The best pilot in the world and the best filmmaker in the world.

As for the woman Yunyun, naturally she can't say it in her mouth, just think about it in her heart.

To build the tallest and fastest plane in the world, then the rocket will obviously be able to meet his requirements. Hughes wanted to see a man on the moon in his lifetime. He really thinks so, and it doesn't matter if he lands on the moon or not.

Alex calls von Bryan. Learn about the readiness of the rocket for launch, and learn from the other side that it is almost there.

"Hmm. Then I'm going to get some music! Alex got up and put on his coat. Ready for a trip to the record label.

"Or just re-record some songs?" He thought to himself.

Grab a few bodyguards, drive to the record company, and find the head of the company, Rudy.

"Are there any new songs that the company is going to release now?" Alex asked.

Rudy felt a little strange and replied, "Of course there is!" What is this for? Would you like to hear it? ”

Alex shook his head, and he said, "I want the people of the whole world to listen!" Well, it shouldn't cover the whole world, and at least a third of the area can listen to it! ”

The more Rudy listened, the more confused he became, and he even wondered if Alex had a fever in his brain and was talking nonsense. Seeing his appearance, Alex knew that the other party didn't understand what he was talking about at all, so he explained.

It turned out that Alex intended to send audio signals to all radios and televisions after the successful launch of the satellite. At the beginning, he also thought about transmitting video signals, but after learning about it, he found that the satellite signal technology of this era was not as popular as that of later generations.

In order to ensure that the signal could be directly received by ordinary radios and televisions, he could only transmit audio signals like the Soviet Union, and if the video signal was transmitted, it was estimated that few people could receive it.

After learning of Alex's plan, Rudy was very excited, and he said, "Can a third of the people in the world hear this music?" ”

Alex shrugged his shoulders and said, "Theoretically! But I guess the most people in the United States can listen to! ”

"That's fine! This is a wonderful opportunity to get the word out! Think about it, our music is transmitted back through space through satellites! It's amazing! Rudy was so excited that he grabbed Alex by the shoulder and said, "Why don't we spread all the music in our company!" ”

Alex felt a headache, and he said helplessly, "How is that possible! At most, you can only ask for a few albums to play! Think of it as a pre-IPO promotion! ”

Rudy also reacted immediately, he thought for a while, and said, "Then let's focus on promoting the songs of your Carpenter brothers and sisters!" Now, in addition to you, Richard and Cullen are both recording new songs! ”

"New songs?"

Alex was thinking, and he also felt that it was time to record a song to express his thoughts. He thought that he was going to do it, and immediately took action to find the person to accompany him.

"I want to record a new song today, and it's called 'Yesterday'!"

As soon as the news came out that Alex was going to record a new song, it immediately attracted a lot of onlookers. There were so many people that many people were squeezed out of the studio.

"Look. Alex is coming out with a new song! ”

"Don't make noise! Don't be noisy! Everyone, be quiet and listen to what he is singing! ”

"You're not from this floor. Don't go back to work yet? ”

In the end, it was Rudy who personally came forward to maintain order, otherwise it would be really difficult for these staff members to settle down. However, he was also quite interested in Alex's songs, so he simply moved a chair and stayed in the recording studio.

"This song doesn't have a very complicated melody, you guys listen up!" Alex embraced his guitar and gently played the classic song.

It's simple and subtle, and the chord progression pattern is classic, and there are no complicated tricks, so even beginner guitar enthusiasts can play and sing this song.

Alex sang as he played, "Yesterday." All my worries seemed so far away. And now, they look right in front of you! Oh, I'd rather believe that yesterday, in an instant, I was no longer who I used to be, and a shadow hung over me! Oh, yesterday just so suddenly. Why she didn't say goodbye, I don't know, and she didn't talk about it. I must have said something wrong, how I longed for yesterday ...... now"

It's a very lyrical song, a little sad, but not painful.

It felt like moving out of a place you'd lived in for a long time. And then I always had a little worry in my heart. It seems that something has been forgotten in the old home, and many precious things cannot be taken away, and it is a house full of memories. When you close your eyes, you can hear the sound of memories peeling.

Alex chose this song for one of the reasons because he liked it. The other is that he feels that there are not so many complicated things in this song, and even a guitar accompaniment can express it well and show the connotation of the music.

He sang like that. Singing! Once, twice, three times!

In the studio, only Alex's faint and sad voice was left in the air.

By this time, Richard and Cullen had already arrived, and they listened silently without making a sound.

When the song was sung by Alex, everyone was still immersed in the mood created by the song, and it took more than ten seconds for people to slowly react. They applauded Alex for writing another classic song.

Rudy shouted loudly, "Alex, you have such a good song for Lu, why don't you take it out sooner!" ”

Alex shrugged his shoulders and said, "I don't have time, you know I've been busy lately." The key thing is that I didn't have the mood to sing such a song before, so I didn't come over to record it! ”

Richard felt a little strange when he heard this, and he asked, "Then why did you suddenly come over to record the song today?" ”

"A lot of things have happened in the past few days, and I feel very deeply, so I want to express my emotions through singing, and it's hard to put into words." Alex squinted, as if recalling things, and as if thinking about how to phrase them.

Karen was also very happy, she clapped her hands and applauded: "Such a beautiful song, brother, you should sing more!" ”

"Ha Luha, let's talk about it when we have time!" Alex touched his head and said to his younger siblings, "I'm here to choose some songs, and the rocket will be launched in a while, and I want the satellite to play our new songs!" ”

Rudy, who was on the side, also explained to them what kind of effect the satellite radio song would have, how many people would receive the satellite signal, and so on.

"Wow! Wouldn't that be able to make our songs sound to a third of the people in the world? Richard's eyes lit up, and he was excited about it.

Cullen jumped up and down with excitement and shouted, "My songs are going to be broadcast by satellite too!" Mine too! ”

Afterwards, they carefully selected a few albums of Carpenter siblings' songs, plus Alex's freshly baked song. Because a lot of things have happened to Alex during this time, it is kidnapping and rocket satellites, except for this "Yesterday", which is a new song, other songs have been released and listed.

Alex has shifted his focus from entertainment to family management, and he may have little time to record songs in the future.

After getting what he wanted, he said goodbye to his younger siblings, and then rushed to Houston with his bodyguards, and he also had to send some materials to the rocket launch base. At this time, the base was surrounded by security personnel, who were specially sent by Hughes, who was worried that someone would come and wreak havoc.

Near Houston's Rocket Base, there is a large lake that used to be visited by people in the past.

Since it became a rocket base, the area around the lake has become off-limits, and only those who have permission to enter it are allowed to enter. Or on the day of the rocket launch, if the base decides to open to the outside, locals or other local travelers will rush to the vicinity to watch the rocket take off.

The convoy kept moving forward, occasionally encountering wild elk on the road, or seeing flocks of frightened birds. The ecological environment here has always been well preserved, and it is still as vibrant as it is in the future.

The US Government attaches great importance to the high-tech secrecy of rocket technology, especially when it is reported that the Soviet Union has sent many spies, and when strangers appear in such a place, they will immediately be interrogated by the military.

In addition to the U.S. military, SCC also has a security team, and there are many people who seem to be very powerful, all of whom Hughes has found. Even though Alex himself is half the boss of the SCC company, he has to comply with the rules and be inspected all the way.

After their group passed through the levels, they finally saw a huge rocket erected in the launch stand. The staff below are busy and are making the most preparations.

As soon as Alex arrived at the scene, he immediately caught the attention of von Bryan, who walked over with several assistants in white coats. Von Bryan was still dressed as before, wearing his white researcher uniform for most of the day, but he seemed to be in good spirits, and his entire face looked radiant.

"Hey! Alex! Von Bryan raised his hand to greet him. His movements seemed to startle the soldiers next to him, and he looked at von Bryan with some surprise, thinking in his heart if that action just now was too "Nazi"!

"How's the preparation of the rocket now? Have you started the most difficult test? ”

Alex looked up at the towering rocket, reaching out to take von Bryan's hand as he modeled it in his own space. After duplicating a von Bryan figure, he immediately began to dual-purpose, talking and analyzing the rocket in front of him in his mental space.

He thought about it for a moment and copied one of Von Bryan's assistants into it, and it was really stressful to turn on two dolls at the same time. He could feel that all his energy was being consumed rapidly, and he felt a little dizzy after only a short while, so he quickly reassembled the assistant doll, leaving only the von Brian doll inside. (To be continued......)

PS: Uh-huh, today is more than 10,000 updates! It is said that on May Day, I went to climb the mountain with my friend, and my friend picked three Ganoderma lucidum on the mountain, the largest of which was the size of a teacup, which was really lucky! However, the house cat is a little strange, because this kind of thing seems to have happened a lot recently, and someone has caught more than fifty pounds of fish in the reservoir. And some other things that have never been heard of, or things that rarely happened before, now they often appear, is it possible that the aura of heaven and earth has begun to increase?
