Chapter 33: Good Night, America
On Friday, May 6, 1988, after more than a year of preparation, the BT TV network finally officially launched.
Relying on 112 cooperative TV stations, BT TV's program dissemination has reached 37 states and 102 cities.
In the BT TV studio, 112 color TV screens show everyone in the studio in real time what programs are being pushed to the audience by 112 TV stations.
At 18:29:59, Tommy pressed the start button.
As the start button was pressed, the 112 screens on the studio walls immediately changed from cluttered to uniform, and the pure black screen displayed the words BTTV and the channel LOGO, with a phrase underneath.
βBe Tale Crazyβγ
It was a BT TV promotional phrase, embedded with the two letters BT representing the TV station, and also indicated the style of BT TV.
Pungent, exciting, anti-traditional, wandering on the edge of morality and law.
All the BT employees in the studio applauded vigorously, they had worked so hard for so long just to get this day coming.
After showing the TV station logo, the screen changed to a brightly lit news studio, a middle-aged black man of at least two hundred and fifty pounds pressed his left forearm on the table, stared at the camera with a pair of round little eyes, and started the "Black News Today" program, even if the director signaled that he had started, he still methodically sucked the last straw first, drank the Coke dry, and then put the Coke under the table, and said calmly:
"Welcome to BTTV, this is "Black News Today", I know that everyone in front of the TV is at a loss at this time, first of all, I want to say that there is absolutely no problem with your TV, don't worry about paying someone to fix it, secondly, suppress the urge to pick up the phone and call the police, I am definitely not a terrorist who hijacked the TV station, I am a news host, look, this is my work card, it says, Kevin Cedric, the chief anchor of the BTTV news channel, the unwritten job title actually includes, The VIP large-value customers of KFC fried chicken restaurant opposite BT TV, and the best potential customers in the eyes of the sales consultants of Madison Gym diagonally opposite BT TV. β
"This is BTTV, the' own TV station, Black News Today, I'm the in charge, and I really care about you' news program, let's make a long story short, anyway, you'll see me at this time every day in the future, so don't be like those presidents, the secretary of state hypocritically shushing you through the screen, let's be practical, I'll broadcast the first one, I think it's very important news for black people, if you're a black person, it's absolutely important."
"More than 20 years ago, on September 15, 1963, the bombing of the 16th Street Baptist Church in Birmingham, Alabama, black people over the age of forty should still have the impression that several white Ku Klux Klan members detonated there with explosives, four cute little black girls died in the explosion, more than 20 black compatriots were injured and hospitalized, so many years have passed, if those four thirteen-year-old girls were still alive, they should be the same age as me this year, at this time happily sitting on the sofa, watching TV with their families, You may say, of course we remember, they didn't die in vain, Kevin, Martin Luther King, Jr., and many other blacks marched for them, and the government was eventually forced by the blacks to introduce all kinds of affirmative action laws, and they didn't die in vain......"
"Let's say that other TV stations will never tell you the truth about this group of, that is, in the early hours of this morning, the main culprit of the bombing died in a nursing home, he lived to be 81 years old, not from electric shock, not from hanging, and even he didn't kill four black girls for the explosion, and even for the more than 20 black people who were injured by the bombing, even if he sat in prison for a day, not a day! He fucking used all kinds of legal loopholes, insufficient evidence, pretending to be sick, inciting public opinion, etc., and the means kept delaying the trial, which dragged on for more than 20 years, and did not apologize for the death of the black man from beginning to end, and finally died of old age in a nursing home, it is said that more than 200 white activists visited him before he died, and the nursing home also prepared hospice care for him, and asked a priest to help him ascend to fucking heaven......"
"Honestly, when my editor told me the news, I thought he was lying? How is this possible? Are we living in fucking America? My editor looked at me seriously and said, "Why can't we live in fucking America!" β
"Tell me, in addition to my program, in which newspaper, on a news program on a television station, on a radio program, have you heard or seen this news? Now understand the importance of seeing me every day? The Truth About Black People. β
"Because I'm going to tell you something that white people never want us to know, and I want us to always be ignorant idiots, and I'm not going to let them get away with it, and that's what I'm going to do on TV, and I'm going to tell you the truth that every black person has the right to know, and then, the second piece of news ......"
While the others were still staring intently at the screen, Tommy quietly turned around and walked out of the studio hall.
From the time he started that station, he knew that the blacks at the bottom would not refuse the programs he had carefully prepared, and he believed that when most white families were still the main consumer force, other television networks would not completely ignore the white audience like he did, and instead spend a lot of money to build a series of self-produced programs around black people, even if it is FOX.
All the staff, including Sophia, were staring at the TV, not having time to notice Tommy's departure, and Tommy walked up the stairs and slowly onto the terrace.
On the terrace, Susan, Jim, and Tommy's Stanford SSD alumnus, Tommy's Stanford SSD alumnus, have a television set in front of them, and they're watching BT's newly-launched black news program with relish.
"I'm curious where Tommy got this kind of news, and if I didn't miss it, it seems that none of the newspapers I subscribe to mention it today." KeyBank CEO Jim Manz sat in front of the TV, looking at Kevin, the black host inside, announcing the news, and asked the two with some confusion:
"I don't know if you know, but I know what to do with the free TV network's evening news program, and I was exposed to the consulting business of the television network when I was at McKinsey, this kind of news department, all their employees will buy a copy of all the major newspapers in the market before they go to work in the morning, and then when they arrive at the company, the news department will all meet to discuss all kinds of front-page news, and vote on which news to put into their news program, and the host has a veto, so to speak, if the Associated Press and the major newspapers don't have news, Then the TV network also has no news, so Tommy's first news source just now is absolutely exclusive, how did this guy find it? β
"My dad told me that a few days ago one of his co-workers named Wilson received a handwritten reply from the deceased, thanking Wilson for donating five dollars to pay him an astronomical amount of bail, and now he is about to leave this world, so before parting, he wrote back to everyone who helped him, and I talked on the phone and talked about it, and I thought it was good to use it as a scoop, and black people would love this kind of scoop." Tommy walked over, sat down next to the three of them, looked at the screen, and said with a smile.
Benjamin looked at Tommy, who was obviously much more mature, in recent years, relying on Tommy's EFF, his net worth has swelled a lot, although there is no EFF, he is also confident that he can make money in the computer industry, but it will definitely not be so easy, and he will not have his current status in the industry, seeing Tommy's gaze, he smiled:
"You need a lot of investment, and it's risky, and you don't want your good friend Stephen to take it for you, so find me, an old guy with a worse heart?"
"Benjamin, please, you are my entrepreneurial mentor, in my heart, I have the same feelings for you as my father did for his uncle, I treat you as family, but you treat me as a material youth who only knows how to open his mouth and shut up money? It makes me so sad. Hearing Benjamin's teasing, Tommy opened his arms with a look of grievance and explained to the other party.
"Mind you, Mr. Benson, Tommy once talked about how his father almost sent that uncle to an AIDS research center to be treated for free at the cost of AIDS." Jim smirked and helped Tommy tear it down.
Tommy looked at Jim: "F*ckYou! Jim! Why can't you suffer from hearing loss? β
"Because I'm not your uncle or grandfather." Jim looked at Susan, then at Benjamin, and then said affirmatively to Tommy:
"I guess you're not just going to have us congratulate you on the success of Black TV in person, you'd better say something that interests me, or at least makes me feel like the time spent flying from New York to Los Angeles is worth it."
Seeing that Tommy was about to speak, Jim hurriedly added:
"I don't care what Benjamin or Susan will do to you, in short, my attitude is, I want no money, no people, nothing."
Susan got up to help Tommy open a beer, walked over and handed it to Tommy, and then said, "Jim, don't be like this, Tommy didn't ask you for money before preparing the TV station, how can you start this idea after the broadcast?" β
"That's what the bastard told you? Didn't ask me for money before the broadcast? Do you think he'd be willing to take money out of his account to set up a black TV station, and that bastard wouldn't even sleep with a black girl, and you think he'd be willing to spend money on a black guy? Jim took the glass and looked at Tommy with an angry face:
"If it weren't for KeyBank, would you have been able to survive the money you earned from selling your body for so long? Tommy? β
Tommy took a sip of his beer and looked at Jim with a smile: "I made the money by selling my body, Jim, I'm so great, I sold my body to raise money and give the black brothers their favorite show." β
"I'm the one who sells my body, I don't know how many times I've sold my body to help you make money, you know what, I don't feel a train coming into my body from behind." As Jim spoke, his palms clapped together with a snapping sound:
"If it weren't for the fact that the remuneration I earned was enough to compensate for the psychological damage and enough to repair the physical damage, I would have prosecuted you for forcing my partner to sell his body."
"Jim says he doesn't have anything, I'm different, I'm going to have to listen to you before I can decide if I'm rich, Tommy." Benjamin waited for Jim to finish and said to Tommy.
He knew that Tommy wouldn't be okay to call him to come to the TV station, but Tommy wanted him to take the money out, and there had to be a reason that appealed to him enough.
Tommy picked up Jim's cigarette on the table, lit it and took a puff: "You see, my TV career has just started, and the main audience is still the low-level black people who are not very rich, so the income can only be made by helping advertisers to advertise, and the payment will be very slow, and if I judge correctly, my best black friend in the TV industry, Wolf Tucker, will definitely show up on BT TV tomorrow, not angry at me, angry at Earl Rush, he will think that those people have taught me badly, Because I had discussed the future with him countless times when I poached him, he knew that my idea of BT was definitely not so vulgar and had no depth to speak of, and that he would definitely come to my rescue. β
"So, that guy treats you like his best white friend, taps into Bole he trusts him, and after seeing that a black man like Earl misleads you, he's going to try to persuade you to get back on the right path, and you're going to take advantage of the guilt that he's gone from you, and you're going to throw him a chore?" Jim didn't even take a drop of alcohol at night in order to see Tommy, because he knew that Tommy called him because he needed his help, not a drunken congratulations, so he was clear-headed, and as soon as Tommy finished speaking, he immediately knew that Tommy was going to help an unlucky black man put on the shackles.
Tommy looked at Jim with satisfaction and nodded slightly: "yes, I'm glad to see that your brain hasn't been soaked in alcohol in New York until it goes to waste, Jim, Wolf's team doesn't fit into BT's current channel style at all......"
Although Tommy complimented Jim, Jim's reaction was to immediately shake his head and widen his eyes:
"I can't listen to it anymore, I said, no money, no people, nothing, don't want to tell me, your first channel has just started, and you will soon launch the second channel!"
"I wanted to be a 24-hour cable news network, and Wolf Tucker couldn't be president, but I thought I could give him a place in management and help me with the preliminary work, which he knows very well, and he has done it three times." Tommy speaks his mind.
Benjamin didn't rush to speak when he heard Tommy's words, and if Tommy just wanted to launch a twenty-four-hour news channel right away, that reason wouldn't convince him to take the money out.
As for Susan, it doesn't matter even more, anyway, she won't express her opinion, she is used to Tommy making decisions, and her income in EFF is the same as Tommy's, and it is entrusted to Sophia to be managed by a company on Wall Street, and if Tommy asks her to take out the money, he won't let her come over and chat in person, because it's not necessary.
Only Jim, although he just said that he would not pay or pay people, but after Tommy said that he was going to launch a news television network, he put away his laughing expression and looked at Tommy seriously:
"I came to Los Angeles on the plane, and I guessed why you called me over, and opened another channel among my many guesses, so I also did some homework, CNN, officially launched in 1980, and as of 1988, it barely managed to have 11 million subscribers, and a large part of it was because it was lucky, at the scene of the Challenger space shuttle crash in '86, because other TV stations were not interested in reporting on the scene, CNN as a TV station got the opportunity to exclusively report on the disaster on the spot, The disaster allowed it to grow by more than three million subscribers that month, so to speak, if the challenger hadn't exploded that year, CNN would have closed its doors a long time ago, and Turner Jr. was still looking for investment in major investment banks on Wall Street last year, how can you not understand that there are so many 24-hour paid sports channels, paid movie channels, and even paid adult channels in the United States, but the only reason why there are no paid news channels, because there is not so much news in the United States at all, so that a TV station can broadcast 24 hours a day. β
"What Jim said about Turner Jr. helping CNN find investment on Wall Street, I can testify that it's true." Benjamin added on the side: "CNN is really losing a lot of money. β
"Why lose money, why look all over the world for investment, because CNN's subscription fee of 20 cents a month, even if you don't consider how much tax it has to pay, it can only recover 2.2 million a month by relying on 11 million subscribers, and it is not even enough for satellite signal leasing fees, let alone labor expenses." Jim's eyes sparkled, and he said to Tommy seriously:
"Aside from the Challenger crash, CNN happened to be on the scene, what other news can you remember? Why pay for a news channel when you buy a newspaper and read the news, or when you can see important news on a free-to-air TV network's evening news program? The annual satellite leasing cost is also at least 30 million, which means that at least 20 million subscribers can pay the lease fee, 25 million subscriptions can barely break even, eight years, 11 million, according to CNN's development data, it will take 16 years to reach 25 million subscribers, are you sure to be prepared for a loss of 16 years to achieve break-even? I know you want to be the eyes of the American people, and I know you drool over FOX, but FOX isn't as eager as you are to stabilize your current black audience, and I'm sure you'll get the attention of those politicians as well. β
Seeing that Tommy was just looking at himself and smiling silently, Jim smacked his lips and slowed down a little:
"Did you know that the average age of CNN's employees today is less than 25? Why, because CNN can't afford to pay salaries, it can only keep hiring interns, fooling those rookies, taking those inexperienced rookies to complete the training in six days, issuing press cards or director cards to let them start working, squeezing them with $3 an hourly wage, fooling them into making a lot of money in the future, and they will share it, in fact, news directors or reporters who resign from CNN, other TV networks will not consider hiring, because they feel that their work experience at CNN is a master. β
"I see, Jim, I understand that there's a reason why none of the three major networks have a separate news channel, right?" Tommy smiled and looked at Jim, who had a reassuring look of persuasion, and said with a grateful look on his face.
When Jim saw Tommy's face, he immediately changed his face and accentuated: "You don't understand! I know you'll have a lot of words ready to talk about later, and I can only get over it! Because I know that it costs a lot of money, cable TV is not this kind of free TV network, you need real money to lease satellites, and the annual cost of leasing satellite bandwidth is at least 30 million! CNN currently has more than 300 employees, and labor costs are a big expense? And you! Definitely not going to pay for it yourself, just saying to me, Jim, I have a good idea, I just need a sum of money, you can figure it out...... I'm your fucking babysitter, and every time you expel a good idea poop out of your body, you're calling out to me, Jim, come and wipe my ass with something called a bill! F*ckοΌ β
Hearing Jim's words, Susan and Benjamin couldn't help but laugh, from Jim's frantic expression and angry tone, they knew that Tommy should have made Jim's position very uncomfortable all these years.
"I don't want to only do domestic news, I mean of course domestic subscribers are also important, my BT TV network is responsible for gathering the bottom black people, this serious news network absorbs middle-class and above domestic subscribers, but the main group in the early stage is overseas English subscribers, I mean each country has its own news TV station, but there doesn't seem to be a real English news TV network in the world." Tommy spoke to the three.
Benjamin nodded slightly, and then asked, "Tell me about it?" β
"The Soviet Union will not last long, the newspapers say that the three Soviet Union member states in the Baltic Sea have already broken out in the wave of independence, and a rebellion has broken out in the Caucasus, and this behemoth, which stands opposite the United States and owns the other half of the world, is already crumbling, but I don't know what day it will be." Tommy took a deep puff on his cigarette:
"At the time of the collapse of this behemoth, there will be countless major news, such as the independence of the member states, such as the reunification of Germany, such as the Moscow coup, such as Gorbachev's possible defection to the United States, in short, any news can appear, this kind of major news, as long as there are two or three times, our news network becomes the world's first, there will be a large number of regional news stations that cannot get news in time to seek cooperation, there will be a large number of overseas English subscribers obediently paying, those overseas news stations, we are like mothers, We give them the news, they become our children, CBS, the largest television network in the United States, and there are only more than 300 cooperative television stations, and it is only limited to the United States, but what if we look overseas from the beginning? β
Whether it is the Berlin Wall or the collapse of the Soviet Union, Jim, Susan and Benjamin do not think Tommy is alarmist, in fact, as Tommy said, the Soviet Union is now an old man who is dying, and I don't know how long it will take for it to die, and now even many American newspapers can discuss the Soviet Union in a relaxed tone, as early as two years ago, the Soviet Union was no longer the red giant that made the world tremble after a military exercise a few years ago in the eyes of Americans.
In the eyes of the Americans, the Soviet Union is now a country that is somewhat similar to the United States, but worse than the United States, and the similarities between them, for ordinary Americans, are that the United States was stuck in a quagmire in Vietnam, which most Americans could not find on the map, and the Soviet Union was also in the quagmire in Afghanistan, which most Americans could not find on the map.
The defeat of the Soviet Union in Afghanistan relieved most ordinary Americans, and the Soviet Union could not even fight Afghanistan, so it should be unlikely that it would hit the United States.
Benjamin looked at the host on the television who was chatting about black news, but his mind was thinking about Tommy's concept of a global news network.
As Tommy said, there is indeed no global English-language news network in the world, and the only one that is barely related to the world is only the news network of the Murdoch Group, and he is now in the United Kingdom in Europe and Australia in Oceania have achieved a near-monopoly situation, and Thatcher can sit firmly as the British Prime Minister, thanks to the overwhelming propaganda of the Murdoch Group, so that her voice and appearance are more than the number of times that her opponent has appeared in front of the British people, I don't know how many times, as for Murdoch's hometown Australia, not to mention, Both parties in Australia will have to look at Murdoch's face, and he will be able to decide which candidate will be most visible to voters.
But even the ambitious Murdoch Group did not dare to build a global English-language news television network, but chose to work steadily and steadily, completely control public opinion in Australia, so that all politicians have to grovel to him, and make sure that he has no worries, he only invaded Britain in a big way, and fought with those British media companies, he got Britain, and dared to land in the United States with the power of the two countries, even so, the financiers who provided loans to Murdoch were still frightened, because Australia and Britain were not good, None of them are comparable to the United States, and it is also true that Murdoch, who is invincible in Australia and the United Kingdom, is struggling in the United States.
Benjamin believes that Murdoch's fellow Jew is not unwilling, but he doesn't dare, because Tommy's thinking is much riskier than steady, with nearly $10 billion in debt, and the Murdoch Group, which has always been financially stretched in the past two years, does not dare to try, Benjamin was born on Wall Street, and he knows that many investment banks have begun to consider stopping supporting it because of the large losses of the Murdoch Group in the past two years and a large amount of cash acquisitions.
"The risk is not ordinarily big, Tommy, I know you want to bet on major news, just like CNN was lucky enough to encounter the Challenger air crash and added more than 3 million subscribers that month, like this kind of major news that is of global concern, I believe that as long as you can publish it first, you can increase tens of millions of subscribers around the world, but the problem is that you can't guarantee that your news network will be the first to publish, how do you know where major news will happen." Benjamin didn't dismiss Tommy's train of thought, but just voiced his concerns.
The problem is, no one knows where the big news will happen, no one knows what will happen the next day, maybe your news team is staring at Moscow, waiting for a coup d'Γ©tat in Moscow at any moment, but maybe maybe you are talking about Moscow in front of the camera and the president of the United States is suddenly shot?
"That's the second question I want to talk about, taking the initiative." Tommy looked at Benjamin and said:
"I don't know when the Berlin Wall will be demolished, I don't know when the Soviet Union will die, maybe this year, maybe next year, maybe ten years from now, but I can take the initiative."
"First of all, like CNN, recruit a few brainwashed young people who are willing to endure hardships and love journalism, and they don't have to do anything, and they fly me to Germany to report on the Berlin Wall, and I do fucking journalism around this wall every day, and I will be more generous than CNN, and I will reimburse them for airfare, local accommodation, and travel expenses, as long as they make sure that the news anchors in the studio want to connect to that wall at any time of the day, and there are reporters there to talk to the camera!"
"Second, dredge public relations, Jim worked at McKinsey, he should be familiar with this kind of thing, he doesn't need to get the time to tear down the wall, he just needs to dredge the GDR, whether it's spending money or selling his ass, in short, let the East German government allow our reporters to be stationed there until the wall is demolished, and for the sake of us spending a lot of money, it has to be exclusive, and the advantage of this is that there are other news organizations in West Germany to take the lead, and we can also have another perspective for the first time, we will always have multiple perspectives."
"Third, technical support, I have studied the communication equipment of reporters from CNN and other well-known news channels in various countries, their foreign correspondents rely on local telephone lines to connect with their studios, if the telephone lines are damaged or ordered to be suspended, they can't even send a fart out, our reporters, everyone makes sure to have a portable satellite phone, even if all the local communication lines are destroyed, it will not affect the news directly back to the studio."
"Think about it, the Berlin Wall is being demolished, the reunification of Germany is not big news for the world, and if we are the first to inform the whole world, of course the subscribers will grow, sooner or later the collapse of the Soviet Union, sooner or later the Gulf War, all the same, as long as we make sure that two or three times this kind of major news is published, the news agencies of those various countries should know who to work with, the Soviet Union has so many member countries, if they become independent, it means that we have a lot of big news to do."
Jim licked his tongue, Tommy's bastard will always have this kind of ambition, and when you think he is trying to master the black community with a black TV station, he actually wants much more: "Use overseas achievements to make a sign, and use this to put pressure on the country, if your news network is successful, other TV stations need to apply for a White House press card, and I guess the White House can take the initiative to provide it to you." β
"That's right." Tommy nodded, not denying it.
"With a large number of low-level black viewers in the United States in my left hand and a global English-speaking mid-to-high-end audience in my right hand who cares about the news, if I am a politically ambitious person, I am absolutely proud to have the opportunity to help you." Jim exhaled deeply:
"It's not scary for a person to have money, it's scary for a person to know how to spend it, so, when is your shit news network going to start?"
"That's the problem, I need somebody to help me deal with the Soviet Union, to do the dredging work, to allow our reporters to be stationed there, and to get acquainted with the situation there, frankly, somebody to help me deal with the GDR and the Soviet Union, to make sure that our team of journalists is stationed in East Berlin and Moscow and the member states, and then we need real experts on the Soviet Union and international relations to serve as advisers to the news network, to help us determine whether there are hot issues that we want to focus on in the near future in the messages that foreign correspondents send back every day. Until then, Wolf-Tucker will be in charge of setting up the framework of the news network, relying on tepid news to attract subscribers, and when the Berlin Wall falls, it will be preemptively published to officially announce our existence to the world. Tommy dropped his cigarette butt, took a sip of beer, and looked at Jim.
Jim whispered an expletive: "I've been to the USSR, and KeyBank still has some charity operations in East Germany, so I'm the best candidate?" Again, I guessed right, you want both money and people. β
Susan, who had just listened for most of the time and did not speak, finally stopped being silent when she heard Tommy's words:
"I think, if you need some experts who understand the Soviet Union as consultants, I think, I have the right person, I am an associate professor of political science at Stanford University, she was interested in the Soviet Union when she was a student at the University of Denver, so for so many years, she has been doing research work on the Soviet Union, she is very good, when I was studying at Stanford University to set up ONE, and started the pig bank, she also gave a lot of advice, if your journalists keep sending back all kinds of news about the Soviet Union, I think she and her graduate students would be more than willing to help, as it would be the first to keep them up to date with the news about the Soviet Union. β
"Really? Stanford alumni? That's nice, otherwise I thought I'd be smiling at Jim and counting on him to help us find a good candidate from National Review. When Tommy heard Susan's words, he said with some surprise:
"Who is it? Let's talk about it, let's see if I've ever sat in on her class, probably not, after all, I don't care about politics. β
Susan looked at Tommy and said in a relaxed tone: "Ms. Condoleezza Rice, a black female professor with elegant conversation and lively lectures, we have a good relationship, I will send her greeting cards every holiday or anniversary, and when I graduated, she happened to be promoted to associate professor, for which she also discussed with me and asked me if I would like to be her first graduate student, with the international relations of the Soviet Union as the research direction." β
Tommy heard Susan's name come out of her mouth, and the smile on the corner of her mouth slowly spread like a ripple, eventually spreading all over her face.
"You must have missed what Susan said, the other party is black, you know? So don't show this lewd smile of 'I'm hard'. Jim saw Tommy's expression and said suspiciously.
Tommy ignored Jim's words, but said to Susan seriously: "Susan, do you know, I think back on all my investments in the past few years, and I found that the most successful case is that I invested in you. β
"Because my words made you hard?" Susan didn't understand why Tommy was smiling like that, and asked with a smile as she learned Jim's tone.
Tommy didn't deny it: "Sort of." β
Seeing that Benjamin didn't speak, Tommy looked at him: "Interested?" Mr. Benson, I remember that you are of Jewish descent, and I must talk to you about it tonight, in addition to the fact that you are my entrepreneurial mentor and my SSD alumnus, the other main reason is that you are a Wall Street Jew. β
Benjamin's gray eyes looked at Tommy for a while before he smiled wryly and said, "Tommy, you have a Plan B for yourself, but I don't." β
"Yes, of course you don't." Tommy nodded understandingly, "But I promise, I will never use Plan B." β
"You're going to give me enough decision, enough." Benjamin exhaled a strong breath of turbidity, looked at Tommy and said.
Tommy also nodded seriously: "You can distribute it as you want." β
"Let Jim and your people run through the basic mode in the early stage, and if it's okay, I'll try to help you complete the bundle symbiosis later." After Benjamin finished speaking, he paused for a moment and looked at Tommy again: "Are you sure you remember what I taught you?" Tommy? β
"Every piece of gold flowing on Wall Street has a price tag, but it was deliberately hidden, and he once said to me, let me always remember the original purpose, if what I do now is not in line with the original idea, then ask my heart and find the original intention." Tommy tapped his heart lightly with a fist in his hand:
"I'm pretty sure what I'm doing now is what I dreamed of."
After listening to Tommy's words, Benjamin nodded and grinned bitterly: "Child, your American dream doesn't seem to be quite the same as that of normal young people. β
"Of course, after all, I love this country more than they do, and after the work talks, I want to go home for a swim and go to bed early, after all, I have to deal with my black friends tomorrow, good night, everyone." Tommy stood up in his seat and smiled at the three of them, then looked at Los Angeles in the night and walked up the stairs:
"Good night, America, when the sun rises again tomorrow, the blacks in this country may start to be a little different because of the presence of BTTV."
