Chapter 21 Recruitment

  After coming out of the TV station, Song Yang and Greg rushed to the bank where they made an appointment.

   In the bank, Song Yang was the first to experience the benefits of being famous. The bank is the most realistic place. As long as you have money, you can get all kinds of super-standard treatment here that the outside world can't imagine.

  Song Yang and Greg first tentatively came to the location of Morgan Bank, the largest bank in Houston.

  JP Morgan Bank, even though they still had some doubts about the value of the double-click advertising company's mortgage assets, they still sent a senior manager to receive Song Yang and gave them high-level VIP treatment.

However, although Morgan Bank is willing to lend to Double-click Advertising Company, the amount is not high. It is only willing to lend to Double-click Advertising Company for a loan of less than $800,000, and nearly half of Double-click Advertising Company's equity as collateral, and the interest rate It is also a bit high. JPMorgan Bank obviously still has some doubts about investing in the Internet industry.

Then Song Yang successively came to Western Union Bank, First Federal Bank, First Imperial Bank, and several banks in Comelica, a local bank in Texas. Compared with Morgan Bank, the attitudes of these banks towards double-click advertising companies Much better, especially the Comerica Bank.

   After coming out of several other banks, Song Yang and Greg came to the Comelica Bank. As soon as they entered, they met a middle-aged man in his forties who was already waiting in the bank lobby.

  As soon as he saw Song Yang and the two, the middle-aged man's eyes lit up, and he immediately led someone to greet him, "Welcome the technology hero of Houston to Comemerica Bank!"

  The middle-aged man came to Song Yang and said to Song Yang, "I just saw it on TV. It was a wonderful interview. I have already seen a new technological star in Houston, which has begun to rise from the space city!"

"Chris Jain, you can call me Jain, the credit manager of the Comerica Houston Bank!" Jain handed two business cards to Song Yang and Gleick respectively. Compared with other banks, Jain wants He was more enthusiastic, and he was flattered as soon as he came up, which was even louder than Song Yang's bragging on the TV station.

   "Thank you!"

  After coming to the meeting room, Song Yang took the coffee brought by Jia En's pretty female assistant, and said to Jia En.

   After Song Yang and Greg looked at each other, Greg spoke first on behalf of the double-click advertising company, "Manager Jain, the double-click advertising company needs to apply for a loan from the Comelica Bank!"

  Jain clapped his hands and clapped his hands a few times, "Comerica Bank is also willing to cooperate with Double-click Advertising Company, such a "potential" company!"

  Song Yang and Greg looked at each other. Jain should be said to have the best attitude towards the double-click advertising company among the banks they met today.

   But when things go wrong, there must be demons. Jain's enthusiasm seems a bit too much. The bank is not a place for charity. Instead, it made Greg's heart pick up, and he used his eyes to signal Song Yang not to speak indiscriminately.

   "Comerica Bank, how much money are you willing to provide for the double-click advertising company?" Greck asked Jain.

   Jain didn't look at Greg, but at Song Yang, "One million dollars!"

   "Two million!" Song Yang said at this time.

  Jain couldn't help shaking his head and laughing a few times when he heard it, "You can listen to my conditions first. I think Comelica Bank, Houston Credit Department, is the most friendly bank in this area to double-click advertising companies!"

   "One and a half million credit funds, a two-month interest-free period, and only need to mortgage 20% of the double-click advertising company's equity!" Jia En said to Song Yang.

  Are these conditions harsh? To be honest, they are already very generous. In the early days of Internet and technology companies, why didn't they ask banks to borrow money?

The double-click advertising company is now also taking advantage of the spring breeze of digital advertising and the support of Netscape, so the bank is willing to tentatively throw a sum of money to the double-click advertising company. In fact, it has never thought of taking it back. After all, every day There are countless new companies emerging in America, how many of these companies can survive to the second year?

  So the conditions proposed by Jain are already very kind compared to those of the **** banks.

   "What does Manager Jain want?" Born in America, the last thing Greck believes is that there will be pie in the sky.

  Jain laughed, and then pointed directly at Song Yang!

   "Funds can be lent to the double-click advertising company. As long as I am still in the position of the Houston credit department of the Comerica Bank, Comerica will be able to cooperate with the double-click advertising company in the future!"

  Jia En looked at Song Yang and said, "But I hope Song, you can become "my" customer in the future. Of course, the double-click advertising company and other cooperative companies' capital turnover, I hope it can also be done in "my" bank."

  Song Yang heard Jia En's implication that he wanted Song Yang to be "his" client, not Comerica Bank!

That is to say, Jia En is investing in Song Yang himself this time. He bet that Song Yang can grow up in the future, not to mention becoming the richest man like Bill Gates, as long as he is a person worth tens of millions, for Jain's Career is a huge help.

   Even going one step further, if Song Yang can break through the ceiling and reach the level of a billionaire, then with such a character supporter, Jain may even be transferred back to the headquarters of the Bank of Comerica.

  America has gathered more than half of the rich people in the world, but there are only so many billionaires. Every billionaire has a huge influence. Being supported by such a person is enough to accomplish many things.

  Greck really didn't expect that Jia En wanted to invest in Song Yang. Although it was for public benefit, his willingness to take risks on Song Yang was enough to show that he valued Song Yang.

Seeing Greg nod, Song Yang also said to Jain, "Of course it's no problem, I am willing to cooperate with Manager Jain, and the double-click advertising company's capital turnover can also be done through the bank where Manager Jain works, but the partner , double-clicking the advertising company is powerless!"

  Whether it is Netscape now or Yahoo in the future, there are a lot of forces behind it. Song Yang has no ability to make Netscape and Yahoo have to put money in the bank where Jain works.

  Jain thought about it for a while, and knew that it would be too difficult for Song Yang to intervene in the finances of a company like Netscape with a valuation of over one billion US dollars.

   "Happy cooperation!" Jia En stretched out his hand and said to Song Yang.

  After Song Yang and Greg left, the female secretary who delivered the coffee immediately stuck to Jain, and the pair of dogs and men were immediately entangled.

   "Are you really optimistic about that Song?" The female secretary lit a cigarette, took a puff, and handed it to Jia En. She had never seen anyone who valued him so much, the manager of the credit department.

No matter which bank you are in, the credit department is a fat job. It is up to the credit department to decide who to give money to and not to, how much to give, and when to get it back. Jain is not a kind person. The company still has those who borrow money, not just one or two.

Glancing at the female assistant in front of him, Jain said, "Silicon Valley and Wall Street are now touting the Internet industry, maybe there will be several millionaires and billionaires in this industry, but now Song seems to be more Compared with others, the chances are much greater!"

  Jain is gambling. It's okay to lose the bet. If he wins the bet, he can earn much more than the Bank of Comelica. In this case, it is natural to gamble.

   After receiving this sum of money, both Song Yang and Greg breathed a sigh of relief, especially Song Yang, who had been tense all the time, finally felt that he could breathe a sigh of relief.

  Grek bought some drinks, and came to the garage with Song Yang. Seeing this garage, Gelek was filled with emotions for a while.

   Looking back at Song Yang again, Greg, a cheap uncle, was a little silent for a while. In just a few days, Greg felt that the identity of Song Yang had undergone subtle changes.

   Whether in a law firm or a bank, Gleick's situation has changed because of the double-click advertising company.

Regarding Song Yang, Greck's mentality is still changing. In addition to the kinship maintained by blood, it has begun to be a little more special. Before Song Yang, Greck was more of an elder's mentality, but now, Greg unconsciously began to think about Song Yang's attitude.

   Song Yang didn't think too much about it. He looked up and saw Greg standing there in a daze. He pulled him to sit on the recliner and opened a bottle of wine for him.

  The wine bottle in Song Yang's hand touched Greg, "Uncle Greg, double-click the advertising company, and I still need your help!"

  Greek came back to his senses and took a sip of his drink. Although the current life is a bit busy, compared to the unchanging days, it is more beneficial to Greg.

   "What are you going to do, Comerica's funds won't last long for the double-click advertising company!"

Greg asked Song Yang, the next double-click advertising company must be recruiting troops, renting offices, recruiting personnel, especially the bulls that are blown out with Netscape, the double-click advertising company must desperately attract advertisers, all these need It's a waste of money, as for when the double-click advertising company will be able to make a profit, no one can tell.

  Song Yang was lying on a chair, looking at the simple garage. In a few days, he would probably move out of here.

   "Double-click advertising companies definitely need investment, but they need to find the most suitable sponsor!"

  Before Song Yang rejected many investment calls who wanted to come to Qiufeng, but this does not mean that Song Yang is not ready to raise funds, but to find a big sponsor who is most suitable for the double-click advertising company.

  Greck wanted to say more, but when he turned around, he saw that Song Yang had already fallen asleep. Greg shook his head, got up and began to deal with things.

  The interview Song Yang accepted in Houston was reprinted and broadcast by CBS, which caused some waves in the Corey industry, especially for the names Song Yang mentioned in the interview.

"I like Song very much. He is a real genius. He opened the curtain of a new generation of Internet!" Song Yang.
