Chapter 195 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 programs spread to 37 states and 102 cities.

  BT TV studio, one hundred and twelve color TV screens, in real time, presenting to the people in the studio what programs the one hundred and twelve TV stations are pushing to the audience at the moment.

  18:29:59, Tommy pressed the start button.

  As the start button was pressed, the 112 screens all over the studio wall immediately changed from chaos to unity. The words BTTV and the channel logo were displayed on the pure black screen, with a phrase below it.

   "Be Tale Crazy".

  That is the promotional phrase of BT TV station, embedded with two letters representing BT TV station, which also shows the style of BT TV station.

  Spicy, exciting, against tradition, wandering on the edge of morality and law.

   All BT employees in the studio applauded vigorously. They have worked so hard for this day to come.

After the TV station logo was displayed, the screen changed to a brightly lit news studio. A middle-aged black man weighing at least 250 pounds pressed his left forearm on the table, staring at him with a pair of small round eyes. The camera started the "Black News Today" program. Even though the director indicated that he had already started, he still methodically took the last sip of the straw and drank the Coke. Then he put the Coke under the counter and said calmly:

"Welcome to BTTV, this is Black News Today, I know you guys are looking dazed, first thing I want to say is that there is absolutely nothing wrong 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 a TV station. I am a news anchor. Look, here is my work card. It says, Kevin Cedric, BTTV News The chief anchor of the channel, the unwritten positions actually include VIP large-spending customers of the KFC fried chicken restaurant opposite BT TV, and the best potential customers in the eyes of the sales consultant of Madison Gym diagonally opposite BT TV.”

"This is BTTV, the niggas' own TV station, Black News Today, my **** call the shots, the news show that really cares about you niggas, let's make a long story short, you'll see it at this time of day anyway Me, so don’t be like those presidents and secretaries of state who are hypocritically greeting you through the screen. Let’s be practical. I will broadcast the first one. I think it is very important for black people. If you are a black person, it is absolutely important."

"More than twenty years ago, on September 15, 1963, the bombing of the 16th Street Baptist Church in Birmingham, Alabama, black people over the age of 40 should still have memories, and several white Ku Klux Klan members Explosives were used to detonate the place, four cute little black girls died in the explosion, more than 20 black compatriots were injured and hospitalized, so many years have passed, if the four thirteen-year-old girls are still alive, they should also be with them this year I am the same age. I am sitting happily on the sofa watching TV with my family. You may say, of course we remember that their sacrifices were not in vain. Kevin, Martin Luther King and many black people marched for them. In the end, the government was forced by the voice of black people and introduced various affirmative action bills, and they did not sacrifice in vain..."

"Tell me that other TV stations will never tell you the truth about these niggas. That is, in the early hours of this morning, the chief culprit of the bombing died in a nursing home. He lived to be 81 years old. He didn't die of electric shock or death. For hanging, he didn’t even spend a day in jail for blowing up four little black girls, and for the more than 20 wounded blacks, not even a day! He used various legal loopholes, insufficient evidence, pretending illness, inciting public opinion and other excuses, the means have been delaying the trial for more than 20 years. From the beginning to the end, there was no apology for the killing of black people, and finally died of old age in a nursing home. It is said that more than 200 white activists went to Visiting him, the nursing home even prepared hospice care for him, and invited a priest to help him ascend to the **** heaven..."

"Honestly, when my editor told me this, I thought he was lying? How is that possible? We live in **** America? My editor also looked at me seriously and said, why can't it be, We live in **** America!"

"Tell me, what newspaper, what TV news program, what radio program have you heard of this news other than on my show? Do you now understand the importance of seeing me every day? About black people the truth."

"Because I'm going to tell you something that white people never want us to know, want us **** to be idiots who don't know anything, and I won't let 'em get it, that's what I'm on TV, I'll tell you the truth that every black person has a right to know, and next, the second piece of news..."

   While the others were still staring at the screen, Tommy quietly turned around and walked out of the studio.

From the time he founded the TV station, he knew that the low-level black people would not reject the programs he carefully prepared. He believed that when most white families were still the main consumers, other TV networks would not completely ignore white people like him. The audience turned to spend a lot of money to create a series of self-made programs around black people, even FOX.

  All the staff, including Sophia, were staring at the TV and had no time to pay attention to Tommy's departure. Tommy walked slowly up the stairs to the terrace.

On the terrace, Susan, Jim, and Actor's earliest angel investor, Tommy's Stanford SSD alumnus Benjamin Rosen, have a TV set in front of them, and they are watching BT's just-launched TV show with great interest. Black news program.

"I wonder where Tommy got this kind of news. If I haven't missed it, it seems that none of the news papers I subscribe to mentioned this news today." KeyBank CEO Jim Manzi sat in front of the TV, Looking at the black host Kevin inside broadcasting the news, he asked the two of them with some doubts:

"I don't know if you guys understand, but I know what to do with the nightly news shows on the free TV networks. I was in the consulting business of the TV networks when I was in McKinsey. This kind of news department, all their employees before going to work in the morning, they will put Buy a copy of all mainstream newspapers on the market, and after arriving at the company, the news department will hold a meeting to discuss various front-page news, and vote on which news to include in their news programs. The host has a veto power. The Associated Press and major newspapers have no news, so the TV network also has no news, so Tommy’s first news source just now is absolutely exclusive, how did this guy find it?”

"My father told me that a few days ago, one of his co-workers named Wilson received a personal letter from the deceased, thanking Wilson for donating five dollars and paying the astronomical bail for him. Now he is about to leave this world. So before leaving, I will write back to everyone who helped him, my old man and I chatted on the phone, I think it’s good to use it as a scoop, black people will like this kind of scoop.” Tommy walked over, next to The three sat down, looked at the screen, and said with a smile.

Benjamin looked at Tommy, who was obviously more mature. In recent years, relying on the EFF created by Tommy, his net worth has expanded a lot. Although without EFF, he is also confident that he can make money in the computer industry, but he will never make money. It's so easy, and he won't have the current industry status. Seeing Tommy's gaze, he smiled:

   "It needs a lot of investment, and there are risks. I don't want your good friend Stephen to help you bear it, 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 treats his uncle. I treat you as a family member, but you treat me as a person who only knows how to open and shut up. Materialistic youth? This makes me so sad." Hearing Benjamin's teasing, Tommy opened his arms full of grievances, and explained to the other party.

"Just to remind you, Mr. Benson, once Tommy chatted and said that his father almost sent that uncle to the AIDS research center to treat the hearing impaired for free at the cost of contracting AIDS." Jim helped Tang with a smirk. Mi demolished.

  Tommy looks at Jim: "F*ckYou! Jim! Why can't you be hard of hearing?"

   "Because I'm not your uncle." Jim looked at Susan, then at Benjamin, and then said to Tommy with certainty:

"I guess you didn't invite the three of us over just for us to congratulate you on the success of your black television station, you better say something that interests me, at least makes me think that the time spent flying from New York to Los Angeles Worth the money."

   Seeing that Tommy was about to speak, Jim quickly added:

   "I don't care how Benjamin or Susan will answer you. In short, my attitude is that I don't want money, I don't have people, and I don't have anything."

  Susan got up to help Tommy open a beer, walked over and handed it to Tommy, and then said: "Jim, don't do this, Tommy didn't ask you for money before preparing the TV station, how could he think about it after the broadcast?"

"This **** told you this? Didn't ask me for money before the broadcast? You think he would be willing to withdraw money from his account to start a black TV station. That **** can't even sleep with black girls. You think he is willing to give Black people spend money?" Jim took the wine glass and looked at Tommy angrily:

   "If there is no KeyBank, how the **** have you survived for so long with the money you earned from selling your body? Tommy?"

  Tommy took a sip of beer, smiled and looked at Jim: "I made money by selling myself, Jim, I am so great. I sold myself to raise money to provide black brothers with their favorite programs."

"I'm the **** one who sold my body. I don't know how many times I sold my body to help you make money. Do you know that I can't feel a train driving into my body from behind?" While talking, Jim clapped his palms together vigorously, making a crackling sound:

   "If it weren't for the remuneration I earned enough to make up for the psychological damage and enough to repair the physical damage, I would have sued you for forcing the partner to sell himself."

   "Jim said he has nothing, I am different, I have to listen to you before I can decide whether I am rich, Tommy." Benjamin waited for Jim to finish speaking, and said to Tommy.

  He knew that Tommy would not ask him to come to the TV station as a guest, but Tommy wanted him to take the money out, there had to be a reason enough to attract him.

Tommy picked up Jim's cigarette on the table, lit it and took a puff: "As you can see, my TV business has just started, and the main audience is still the low-level black people who are not very rich, so the income can only depend on helping advertisers place various advertisements." , and the payment will be very slow, and if my judgment is correct, my best black friend in the TV industry, Wolf Tucker, will definitely appear on BT TV tomorrow, not angry at me, but at Er Rush and those people are angry, he will think that those people have taught me badly, because when I hired him, I have discussed the future development with him countless times, he knows that my idea of ​​BT is definitely not so vulgar, absolutely There is no depth to speak of, and he will come to save me."

"So, that guy takes you as his best white friend, taps his trust in his bole, and after seeing a black guy like Earl mislead you, he'll try to get you back on track, and you take advantage of him leaving you Feeling guilty about leaving, ready to throw him a hard job?" Jim didn't even drink a drop of drink in the evening to see Tommy, because he knew that Tommy called him because he needed his help, not because he was drunk As soon as Tommy finished speaking, he knew that Tommy was going to put the shackles on a hapless black man.

  Tommy looked at Jim with satisfaction, and nodded slightly: "Yeah, I'm glad to see that your brain hasn't been soaked in alcohol in New York. Jim, Wolfe's team is not suitable for the current channel style of BT TV..."

  Although Tommy praised Jim, Jim immediately shook his head and widened his eyes:

   "I can't listen to it anymore. I said that there is no money, no people, and nothing. Don't try to tell me that your first channel has just launched, and the second channel will be launched soon!"

"I want to be a 24-hour cable news television network. Wolf Tucker can't be the president, but I think I can give him a position in the management team to help me complete the preparatory work. He is very familiar with this job. It's been done three times." Tommy said his thoughts frankly.

  Benjamin didn't rush to speak when he heard Tommy's words. If Tommy just wanted to launch a 24-hour news channel right away, this reason would not convince him to pay for it.

As for Susan, it doesn't matter, 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, which is entrusted to a Wall Street company by Sophia, and Tommy wants her to take care of it. If the money came out, she would not be allowed to come and chat face to face, because it was unnecessary.

  Only Jim, although he said just now that he would not give money or people, but after Tommy said that he would launch a news TV network, he put away his laughing expression and looked at Tommy seriously:

"On the plane I came to Los Angeles, I guessed why you called me over. Opening another channel is among my many guesses, so I also did some homework. CNN, which officially started broadcasting in 1980, has been on the air since 1988. It barely managed to reach 11 million subscribers, most of which was due to its good luck. It was at the scene of the Challenger space shuttle air crash in 1986. Because other TV stations were not interested in reporting on the spot, CNN, as a TV station, got an exclusive live report on the disaster. Chance, this disaster allowed it to increase its subscribers by more than 3 million that month. It can be said that if the challenger hadn’t exploded that year, CNN would have closed down a long time ago. Little Turner was still looking for investment in major Wall Street investment banks last year. How could you not I understand that there are so many 24-hour paid sports channels, paid movie channels, and even paid adult channels in the United States, but there is no reason why there are no paid news channels, because the United States does not have so much news that can make a TV station 24 hours Non-stop broadcast."

   "I can testify that what Jim said about Turner Jr. helping CNN find investment on Wall Street is true." Benjamin added next to it: "CNN's losses are indeed serious."

"Why are you losing money? Why are you looking for investment all over the world? Because CNN's subscription fee is 20 cents a month. Even if you don't consider how much tax it has to pay, it can only get back 2.2 million by relying on 11 million subscribers every month. Even satellite signals The rental fee is not enough, let alone labor expenses." Jim's eyes flickered, and he said to Tommy seriously:

"Apart from the Challenger crash where CNN just happened to be on the scene, what other stories do you remember about it? You buy a newspaper and you get the news, or you get the big news on the free nightly news show, Why pay to subscribe to a news channel? The annual satellite rental fee is at least 30 million, which means that at least 20 million subscribers can pay for the rental fee, and 25 million subscriptions can barely break even. Eight years, one thousand and one One million, according to CNN's development data, it takes 16 years to reach 25 million subscribers. Are you sure you are prepared to make a loss for 16 years before you can break even? I know you want to be the voice of the American people. A pair of eyes, I also know you stare at FOX and drool, but FOX is not as eager as you, just stabilize your current black audience, I believe you will also get the attention of those politicians."

   Seeing Tommy just looking at him and smiling silently, Jim smacked his lips, and his tone softened a little:

"Did you know that the average age of CNN's current employees is even less than 25 years old? Why, because CNN can't pay salaries, it can only keep hiring interns, fooling those rookies, and taking those inexperienced rookies to complete the training in six days, Just issue press cards or director cards to let them start working, squeeze them with an hourly salary of $3, and fool them into making a lot of money in the future, and share them. In fact, news directors or reporters who resigned from CNN, other TV networks Neither would consider hiring them because they felt their CNN work history was just a play."

"I understand, Jim, I understand that there is a reason why none of the three major TV networks have a separate news channel, right?" Tommy smiled and looked at Jim with a heart-to-heart look, admonishing himself, showing gratitude Said.

Seeing Tommy's face, Jim immediately changed his face and said with a more serious tone: "You don't understand! I know you must have prepared a speech later, and I can only live with my mouth! Because I know that it will cost a lot of money, and cable TV is not like that. A free TV network requires 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 huge expense? And you! You will never do it yourself If you pay, you will only say to me, Jim, I have a **** good idea, but I just need a sum of money, you can find a way... I am your caring nanny, every time you expel a thing called good from your body Mind shit, call me, Jim, come and wipe my **** with that thing called money! F*ck!"

  Hearing Jim's words, both Susan and Benjamin couldn't help laughing. From Jim's frantic expression and angry tone, they knew that Tommy should have made Jim's position very difficult these years.

"I don't want to only do domestic news. I mean that domestic subscribers are of course also important. My BT TV network is responsible for gathering black people at the bottom. This serious news network attracts middle-class and above domestic subscribers, but the main group in the early stage is overseas English-speaking subscribers. I am It is said that every country has its own news TV station, but it seems that there is no English news TV network that is really popular in the world." Tommy said to the three.

  Benjamin nodded slightly, and then asked: "Tell me specifically?"

"The Soviet Union can't last long. According to newspapers, independence has broken out in the three Soviet Union countries in the Baltic Sea, and a rebellion has broken out in the Caucasus. This huge monster that stands opposite the United States and owns the other half of the earth is already on the verge of collapse. I just don't know where it is. One day, I will die." Tommy took a deep breath of the cigarette:

"When this behemoth disintegrates, there will be countless major news, such as the independence of each member country, such as the reunification of Germany, such as the coup in Moscow, such as Gorbachev's possible defection to the United States, in short, any kind of news may appear, this kind of major news , as long as two or three times, our news network becomes the world's first, there will be a large number of regional news stations that cannot obtain news in time to seek cooperation, and a large number of overseas English subscribers will obediently pay. Those news stations in overseas regions, we are like Mother, we give them news, and they become our children. CBS, the largest TV network in the United States, only has more than 300 cooperative TV stations, and it is only limited to the United States. But what if we set our sights overseas from the beginning? ?”

Be it the Berlin Wall or the disintegration of the Soviet Union, Jim, Susan and Benjamin don't think Tommy is alarmist. In fact, as Tommy said, the Soviet Union is now an old man on the verge of decay. Even many American newspapers are now able to discuss the Soviet Union in a relaxed tone. As early as two years ago, in the eyes of Americans, the Soviet Union is no longer the red giant that made the whole world tremble after a military exercise a few years ago.

In the eyes of Americans, the Soviet Union is now a country that is somewhat similar to the United States, but worse than the United States. Their similarity, to ordinary Americans, is that the United States was in a country that most Americans could not find on the map. Vietnam was mired in a quagmire, and the Soviet Union was also mired in Afghanistan, which most Americans couldn't find on maps.

  The defeat of the Soviet Union in Afghanistan made most ordinary Americans breathe a sigh of relief. The Soviet Union could not even defeat Afghanistan, so it should not be possible to call the United States.

  Benjamin looked at the host who was talking about black news on the TV, but he was thinking about Tommy's concept of the global news network.

As Tommy said, there is indeed no global English-language news network in the world. The only news network that barely touches the world is the news network of the Murdoch Group. He is now in the UK in Europe and Australia in Oceania. In a monopoly situation, Thatcher was able to secure the British Prime Minister thanks to the overwhelming publicity of the Murdoch Group, which made her voice and appearance appear in front of the British people many times more than her opponents. Doc's hometown is Australia, not to mention, both parties in Australia have to look at Murdoch's face, he can decide which candidate appears in front of voters as much as possible.

But even the ambitious Murdoch Group did not dare to take the initiative to build a global English-language news TV network. Instead, it chose to play steadily and thoroughly grasp public opinion in Australia, so that all politicians must bow to him and make sure that they have no worries. Afterwards, he aggressively invaded the UK and fought with those media companies in the UK. After he managed the UK, he dared to use the strength of the two countries to land in the United States. Neither the United Kingdom nor the United States is comparable, and the fact is that Murdoch, who has been invincible in Australia and the United Kingdom, is struggling in the United States.

Benjamin believes that Murdoch's Jewish compatriot didn't want to, but didn't dare, because the risk of Tommy's way of thinking is much higher than that of steady and steady. Murdoch, who has nearly tens of billions of dollars in debt and has been struggling financially in the past two years The Murdoch Group did not dare to try. Benjamin was born on Wall Street. He knew that many investment banks began to consider stopping supporting the Murdoch Group due to the large losses and large cash acquisitions of the Murdoch Group in the past two years.

"The risk is not so great, Tommy, I know you want to bet on big news, just like CNN was lucky in the past, encountered the Challenger air crash, and added more than 3 million subscribers that month, like this kind of global attention Big news, I believe that as long as you can release it first, you can increase tens of millions of subscribers worldwide, but the problem is, you can't guarantee that your news network will be the first to release it, how do you know where? There will be big news." Benjamin didn't deny Tommy's thinking, but just expressed his concerns.

People in the TV media know that as long as the big news is released first, it can bring a lot of money. 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 paying attention to the news. Looking at Moscow, waiting for a coup d'etat in Moscow that could happen at any moment, but maybe, what if the President of the United States is suddenly shot dead while you are babbling about Moscow in front of the camera?

   "This is the second question I want to talk about, take the initiative." Tommy looked at Benjamin and said:

  “I don’t know when the Berlin Wall will be dismantled, I don’t know when the Soviet Union will come to an end, maybe this year, maybe next year, maybe ten years later, but I can take the initiative.”

"First of all, just like CNN, recruit a few young people who are brainwashed and willing to work hard and love journalism, don't have to do anything fucking, fly me to Germany and station at the Berlin Wall to report, and carry out **** around this wall every day Journalism, I'm more generous than CNN, I'll reimburse them for airfare, local board and lodging, and travel expenses, as long as they make sure that any news anchor in the studio wants to connect to that wall at any time of the day, there is a reporter watching There, have something to say to the camera!"

"Second, unblock public relations. Jim has worked in McKinsey and should be familiar with this kind of thing. You don't need to get the time to tear down the wall. You just need to unblock East Germany. It doesn't matter if you spend money or sell your ass. In short, let East Germany The government allows our journalists to be stationed there until the wall comes down, and for the sake of the money we pay, it has to be exclusive, and the advantage of this is that other news organizations are ahead in West Germany, and we are also A starter who can have another perspective, we will always have multiple perspectives."

"Third, technical support. I have studied the journalist communication equipment of CNN and other well-known news channels in various countries. Their foreign reporters rely on local telephone lines to connect with their studios. If the telephone lines are damaged or ordered to be suspended, they will Not even a fart can be transmitted, our reporters, everyone is guaranteed to be equipped with a portable satellite phone, even if all local communication lines are destroyed, it will not affect the direct transmission of news back to the studio."

"Think about it, the Berlin Wall has been dismantled and the reunification of Germany is not a major news to the world, but if we are the first to inform the world, the number of subscribers will of course increase, and sooner or later the disintegration of the Soviet Union will happen, sooner or later it will happen The Gulf War is the same, as long as we ensure two or three major news releases, the news organizations in various countries should know who to cooperate with. The Soviet Union has so many countries. If they become independent one after another, it means that we have many major news. Journalism can do it."

Jim licked his tongue, Tommy is always this kind of ambition. When you thought he set up a black TV station to try to control the black community, he actually wanted far more: "While using overseas records to make a name for yourself, borrow This puts pressure on the country, if your news network is successful, other TV stations need to apply for the White House journalist interview card, I guess the White House can take the initiative to provide it to you.”

   "That's right." Tommy nodded without denying it.

   "I hold a large number of low-level black audiences in the United States in my left hand, and the mid-to-high-end audience in English around the world who care about news in my right hand. If I were a person with political ambitions, I would definitely be proud to have the opportunity to help you." Jim let out a deep breath:

   "It's not scary for a person to have money, it's scary for a person who knows how to spend it. So, when is your **** news network going to start broadcasting?"

"Here's the thing, I need someone to help me deal with the Soviet Union, to clear the way, to allow our reporters to be stationed there, and to be familiar with the situation there, frankly, someone to help me deal with East Germany and the Soviet Union, to ensure that our reporters The team can be stationed in East Berlin, Moscow and various alliance countries, and then we also need real Soviet issues and international relations experts to serve as consultants for the news network, helping us judge whether it will happen in the near future from the news sent back by the foreign reporters. Hot events that you want to pay attention to. Before that, Wolf Tucker will be responsible for building the framework of this news network, relying on tepid news to barely attract subscribers. Announce our existence." Tommy threw away his cigarette butt, took a sip of his beer, and looked at Jim.

  Jim cursed in a low voice: "I have been to the Soviet Union, and KeyBank also has some charity business in East Germany, so I am the best candidate? I guessed it right again, you need both money and people."

  Most of the time just listening, Susan, who didn't speak, finally stopped being silent when she heard Tommy's words:

"I thought, if I need some experts who understand the Soviet Union as advisors, I think, I have the right person, my 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 after so many years, She has been doing research on the Soviet Union. She is very kind. When I was studying at Stanford University and established ONE and launched the Pig Bank, she also gave a lot of advice. If there is news, I think she and her graduate students will be very willing to help, after all, this is equivalent to allowing them to learn about the news about the Soviet Union as soon as possible.”

"Really? A Stanford alumnus? That's great, otherwise I thought I'd be humiliating to Jim and expect him to help us find a suitable candidate from the National Review." Tommy heard Susan's words. , said with some surprise:

   "Who is it? Tell me, see if I have attended her class, probably not, after all, I don't care about politics."

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, and I will send her a letter every holiday or anniversary. Greeting card, when I was graduating, she was just promoted to an associate professor, so she even discussed with me specifically, and asked me if I would like to be her first graduate student, focusing on the international relations of the Soviet Union as the research direction.”

  When Tommy heard the name that came out of Susan's mouth, the smile on the corner of his mouth slowly spread like ripples, and finally spread all over his face.

   "You must have missed what Susan said. The other party is a black man, understand? So don't show such a lewd smile of 'I'm hard'." Jim saw Tommy's expression on the side, 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 found that the most successful case is investing in you."

   "Because my words made you hard?" Susan didn't understand why Tommy showed such a smile, so she imitated Jim's tone and asked with a smile.

  Tommy didn't deny it: "Well."

Seeing that Benjamin didn't speak, Tommy looked at him: "Are you interested? Mr. Benson, I remember that you have Jewish ancestry. I must have a detailed discussion with you tonight, except that you are my entrepreneurial mentor and my SSD Aside from alumni, the other main reason is your identity, a Wall Street Jew."

  Benjamin looked at Tommy with his gray eyes for a long time, then smiled wryly and said, "Tommy, you prepared Plan B for yourself, but I didn't."

   "Yes, of course you didn't." Tommy nodded understandingly: "But I promise, I will never use PlanB."

   "You have to give me enough decision-making power, enough." Benjamin exhaled forcefully, looked at Tommy and said.

  Tommy also nodded seriously: "You can distribute it however you like."

"Let Jim and your people run through the basic mode in the early stage. If it is confirmed that there is no problem, I will try my best to help you complete the binding and symbiosis later." After Benjamin finished speaking, he paused for a moment, then looked at Tommy: "Are you sure you still Remember what I taught you, Tommy?"

"Every piece of gold flowing on Wall Street has a price tag, but it was deliberately hidden. He once told me, let me always remember the original purpose. If what I am doing now is not in line with the original idea, then ask Get back your heart." Tommy clenched his fist and tapped his heart lightly:

   "I'm pretty sure what I'm doing now is what I dreamed about."

  After listening to Tommy's words, Benjamin nodded and grinned wryly: "Son, your American dream seems to be different from that of normal young people."

"Of course, after all, I love this country more deeply than them. After work and chatting, 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 sat on the seat He stood up and smiled at the three of them, then looked at Los Angeles in the night, and walked towards the stairs:

   "Good night, America, when the sun rises again tomorrow, black people in this country may start to look a little different because of BTTV."
