Chapter 229

Chapter 229 Misfortune diverted to the east

  Two commentators from the New York TV station teased the audience in front of the TV. They were not sure if Song Yang was a baseball genius, but Song Yang was the richest player in the baseball industry, but no one questioned him.

  The two commentators teased Song Yang's net worth. Even among those old Americans who treat the baseball team as a toy, Song Yang's current net worth is already quite high.

   "Bruno Song is indeed from the baseball industry, and his baseball level is quite good!"

The ridicule is ridicule. The two commentators don't want to lose their jobs. Song Yang's baseball level, just one pitch, can be seen as a hammer when the Dodgers let the water go. However, the two commentators still praised Song Yang and did not let Song Yang Yang's personality as a "genius baseball player" has collapsed.

Not only the commentary on the New York TV station, but also the TV stations in Los Angeles, Houston, Chicago and other places that commented on the game, they didn't dare to talk about Song Yang's baseball level. As for the level of actual combat, the beholder sees the benevolent and the wise sees the wisdom.

It's hard to say how good Song Yang's baseball is, but his worth is like crazy, rising non-stop. As the day of double-click listing approaches, more media have begun to discuss Song Yang's worth. Some media even think that, Today, Song Yang's net worth has reached the top of the top 100 richest people in America.

   But no matter how much, the current Song Yang is the representative figure standing on the Internet.

   Such a person on the list of the 100 richest people in America came to play for the MLB audience in person. It is rare to see him in many years. What more bike do you need? !

After a few words, the commentary of the New York TV station suddenly broke out a big news, "Before the game, I heard a news that the O'Malley family, which owns the Los Angeles Dodgers, is seeking to sell the Dodgers. As we all know, Bruno Song has always been very interested in the baseball industry!"

  As soon as this sudden news came out, it instantly attracted countless TV viewers. These two commentators seemed to have said nothing, but they seemed to have said it.

  The O'Malley family is selling the Los Angeles Dodgers, and Song Yang just appeared in Los Angeles at the moment. Coupled with Song Yang's worth, it can't help but make people wonder whether the Dodgers are about to change.

In the past few years, the Los Angeles Dodgers, once the giants of the MLB Major League Baseball, have not had a good life. Even today, the Houston Astros have been defeated many times. There are rumors that the O'Malley family is selling the Dodgers , not once or twice.

It is not surprising that the news came out again this time. On the contrary, many people believed it. A professional team is not impossible!

   New York TV station had to commentate. After the big news, it started to explain the game again, as if what he said just now was not what he said.

   At this time, such news was released suddenly. Naturally, this commentary could not be aimless. Someone must have instructed him to break out the news that the Dodgers were about to sell, but Song Yang was involved in it incidentally.

  In fact, there is a consortium in New York that wants to move the Dodgers back to the former Brooklyn district of New York, but the O'Malley family has some problems with New York, and their response to New York buyers is very cold.

  Even though the New York consortium actually bid higher than News Corporation's Murdoch, the O'Malley family still flirted with Murdoch, which made the New York consortium naturally dissatisfied.

  Take advantage of today's opportunity to expose the news that the Dodgers are looking for a buyer, and bring Song Yang into it, which is actually to muddy the water.

   But at this moment, the news has started to spread like the wind. Even the local sports channel in Los Angeles, after receiving the news, began to discuss the possibility of the Dodgers being sold.

On the court, Song Yang, who was about to leave the field, suddenly heard a burst of boos, and even the voice of "The Dodgers will never leave Los Angeles", which made Song Yang a little confused. He was here to advertise for Double-click Company, why? Provoked the Dodgers fans.

Song Yang was a little dissatisfied with this lying gun. If he wanted to buy a baseball team, then Song Yang would only buy two teams. One was the Houston Astros baseball team, and the other was the New York Yankees. As for Los Angeles The Dodgers are not in Song Yang's consideration at all.

   "Song, there is some misunderstanding here!"

Under the boos all over the sky, Peter O'Malley, who accompanied Song Yang today, the second-generation head of the Dodgers, the son of old Walter O'Malley, and the current president of the Dodgers, looked at him with embarrassment. Song Yang said, at this time, it was revealed that he was going to sell the team, and it would be **** if he didn't get sprayed.

Glancing at the fans around him, Song Yang could only sigh. Double-click listing was really a disaster. Find someone to reason with.

   Didn't stay on the court much. At halftime, Song Yang and Peter O'Malley left the field respectively. Song Yang didn't want to be booed anymore, and Peter O'Malley had to deal with the mess.

  However, Song Yang's departure did not prevent the media from fanning the flames. Rumors began to spread that Song Yang met with Peter O'Malley and wanted to buy the Dodgers.

  Even if Song Yang and the O'Malley family claimed that they had not discussed the acquisition of the Dodgers, no one believed it.

  If Song Yang and the O'Malley family are just a little depressed, then Murdoch, who is preparing to spend real money to buy the Dodgers and build his own sports empire, is really a bit of a mother.

  The Los Angeles municipal department received the news. Under the protests of the fans, some councilors came forward directly, saying that they would never let the Dodgers leave Los Angeles, and directly asked the O'Malley family to suspend the sale of the Dodgers!

The MPs in Los Angeles don't care about the Dodgers. They've suffered a lot in the past two years. For two consecutive years, the Dodgers have been named "MLB's Most Unprofitable Team" by Forbes. You can imagine how unprofitable they are. , It was such a loss that the O'Malley family wanted to sell it.

As a result, a group of local councilors in Los Angeles, facing the protests of the Dodgers fans, were naturally happy to be "good guys" and directly terminated the sale of the Dodgers. These councilors need the votes and support of the fans. If you are willing to care, whether the O'Malley family is dead or not is none of their business, as long as you can get votes and reputation.

Moreover, the next time the O'Malley family wants to sell the Dodgers, they must first get the Los Angeles city councilors to agree to the sale. If they don't pay a large sponsorship fee, they will definitely not be able to sell it. .

  The most uncomfortable thing is that Murdoch, who is about to reach an acquisition agreement with the O'Malley family, is invincible in the media industry, and has always been a little uncomfortable in the sports industry.

  Murdoch wanted to buy Manchester United, but was directly rejected by the British government. He wanted to buy France TV, but he was also kicked out. Now he wants to buy the Dodgers, but he was disturbed by someone...

Song Yang has no time to pay attention to how the Dodgers are wrangling with the O'Malley family, Murdoch, and News Corp. This time he came to Los Angeles, in addition to running a wave of advertisements for Double-click, he also had to meet someone.

  In a hotel in Los Angeles, Song Yang saw a tall, thin man wearing glasses arriving at the hotel.

"Carmack!" Song Yang stretched out his hand towards the man, and the person in front of him was John Carmack, who was regarded by countless people in the game industry as a godfather-level figure, the father of 3D games, the father of FPS, the **** of programmers, etc. , are the halos on Carmack.

  In this era of technology giants and endless emergence, Carmack is definitely the number one person who can be ranked.

  However, Carmack is not very old. He is just 26 years old this year. He has just entered his peak period, but he is already an existence that many programmers long for and cannot reach. In this era, there are indeed geniuses!

   "Song!"

   Carmack shook hands with Song Yang, but this talented programmer had a slightly dejected look on his face at this moment.

   "I'm glad you can come, Carmack!" Song Yang asked the hotel staff to serve Carmack a cup of coffee, and said to him.

  John Carmack looked at Song Yang in front of him, sighed, and asked Song Yang, "Why is IdSoftware? If it's just for the engine of "Thor's Hammer", I can authorize it to Xue Leshan!"

  After ICQ proposed the acquisition of Id Game Company, this game company, which had a great reputation in the past few years, was completely disrupted.

   Whether to sell Id Games, let Carmack and the founders quarrel with each other. Id Games is not a team company, but more a product of a group of geniuses working alone.

Just like the "Quake" engine, which was developed by Carmack alone. With the Quake engine, there will be another founder to build levels, models, game bosses, etc. Several Id founders, Almost all are independent of each other, which makes the games produced by Id full of personality. Almost every level in the game has a different style, because the developers of each level are independent.

But a few years later, when Carmack and several other founders began to have their own names, they all became big names in the industry, and they all wanted to launch their own style of games. In addition, Carmack was obsessed with technology. The ideas of several founders have run counter to each other.

  The entire Id game company is actually like a powder keg. Even if there is no Xueleshan, it will blow up by itself in a short time.

   Carmack came to meet Song Yang on behalf of Id Games. In fact, Carmack didn't want to sell Id Games, but Romero and other founders wanted to start over or build their own business.

   "Because of you, ICQ's game business, as well as Xueleshan, Blizzard, R Star, V Agency, and all small and medium game manufacturers need you!" Song Yang pointed to Carmack and said.

   I still owe a chapter, I will make it up tomorrow, huh huh
