Just kidding, do you really think that the whole world is full of super rich people who spend money like water?

Although the bosses of Fox and North American TV have a high status, their annual salary and share dividends are quite considerable, they are still professional managers after all, and they work for the bosses behind them. Simply put, they are still quite far from being top giants like Rockefeller and Morgan.

It is precisely for this reason that when Zhou Ming took out a million cash and piled it in front of them, the spectacular scene made their eyes suddenly shine.

But after all, they have all seen the world. Then they thought that Zhou Ming must have something to ask for after so much money, so they immediately took it and said that as a media person, they should have ethics and something.

If the American media has ethics, this is probably the biggest joke, but Zhou Ming is not interested in engaging with them on this issue. Don’t they just want money anyway? It just so happens that what he has now is money. You have to know that the stocks of Internet Communications Investment Bank are sold at a total value of 100 billion yuan. Now he has spent millions to bribe the two media bosses, which is a drop in the bucket.

But no matter how rich Zhou Ming is, he doesn’t want to be a sucker. When he bids for five million, they are still trying to make it. Then I’ll say goodbye to you.

The two bosses also realized that they were a little over-the-top, so they explained to Zhou Ming repeatedly that they didn't mean that, and that they still hoped to cooperate with Zhou Ming, but that things should be done more thoughtfully.

Zhou Ming was too lazy to talk nonsense to them: "The price is 4 million yuan at a time. If you think it is suitable, do it. If it is not suitable, it will be overwhelming."

The two bosses glared: "Why is there another million less?"

"So otherwise it would be three million..."

This time, Zhou Ming was interrupted before he finished speaking. The two bosses said in unison: "Four million, only four million, the deal is completed!"

These two people have understood it. If they talk too much, they will probably lose these four million. You must know that even if it is a golden time advertisement, many of them may not be able to sell for 4 million. They will not have much chance to get 4 million at a time in their lifetime, so how could they give up easily? It’s just that they regretted their greed just now, otherwise they would be able to get 5 million.

Zhou Ming nodded, very satisfied with the result. He also emphasized: "I hope this news can spread throughout the United States, not only your main TV station, but also all the independent TV stations below will also be broadcast."

The two bosses expressed their understanding.

Although Zhou Ming had no good feelings for the American media, they still had the spirit of contract. On the night when Zhou Ming flew back to San Francisco, he turned on various channels of the TV and broadcast about challenging the Internet extreme sports.

This was the first event initiated by a Brighton computer graduate student. The classmate named Griffin failed to send an email successfully, which made him feel dissatisfied with the school's network. He was a computer major, so he made a mini program to detect the network speed and found that his actual network speed was seriously inequality with the operator's publicity.

The classmate was very angry, so he posted the mini program he designed to the Internet and launched this challenge campaign.

Once the sport was launched, it became popular across the Internet because just an hour ago, Feige's chairman Perridge participated in the challenge sport.

No, not only Perridge, but also Hollywood stars and NBA stars are also involved, and now this challenge is mutual.

The movement of networking speed seems to have become a national project.

...

As the media came to an end, this movement that originally challenged the Internet's extremes, which was originally just a self-satisfaction online, was pushed to the peak. This self-satisfaction on the Internet began to transform into a grand event that affected the entire United States.

While the Internet extremes continue to heat up, Zhou Ming is joining forces with Rockefeller and Morgan to suppress telecom operators such as telephone companies, as well as stocks of communication equipment suppliers such as Coase, Motorcycle, Danner and U.S. communication equipment, which caused these companies to fall by 2% to 5% in just a few days.

Don’t underestimate this number. You should know that the capital market in the United States is relatively complete. Whether it is the national telephone or Coase, they are also huge companies. Most investors hold stocks for a long time, so the decline is already quite strong.

Anyone who wants to be a marketer in the stock market must first learn how to take advantage of the momentum to suppress the price, because the rise and fall of the stock is very similar to a spring. Only when you suppress it first will it become more violent when the rebound in the future; of course, this can further improve your returns.

Whether Caitlin or Rockefeller and Morgan, they are all veterans of bankers. This time, they borrowed a campaign to challenge the limits of the Internet, which is to let the media add some reports on the current situation of the US network when broadcasting, and form public opinion with bad Internet situations.

But doing this is only icing on the cake, because the people participating in the event have not complained about their bad Internet speed. Zhou Ming and Rockefeller and Morgan rely on this negative news, coupled with their continuous selling in the market, can easily lead to the market rhythm and suppress the stock price without much effort.

When the stock prices of major telecom operators were in decline, Zhou Ming and Caitlin were not idle either and had already begun a future rebound.

At the internal meeting, Caitlin said: "The United States is a country that is very affected by public opinion. They must take care of the sentiment of capital and voters. Many lawmakers can attract all kinds of sensationalism in order to attract votes and increase their popularity for themselves. Then, this matter will inevitably be quickly mentioned."

Zhou Ming asked himself what he needed to do and whether he needed to find a politician to act in a play. Tang Ran also said that the Tang family supports many congressmen in San Francisco, and even the mayor can speak.

However, Caitlin told them that it is not necessary: ​​"If you intervene in politics, it will cause a lot of trouble. It's better for us to wait. I can guarantee that someone will stand up on his own initiative."

This is indeed the case. On the second day after the three major TV stations intervened, South Brighton District Councilors publicly accused the Internet infrastructure in the area.

"I really can't imagine that this is actually the Internet in 1997. I even thought I was still watching Apollo moon landing! Did our Internet infrastructure still stay decades ago? It made our laboratory unable to send an email normally. So I would like to ask our mayor, where do we spend so much budget every year? Why are our roads and networks very messy! We are Brighton, the most prosperous city in New England, and we should build the most prosperous Internet network!"

The MP's speech received widespread praise and attention immediately through television, with his support

It also soared immediately. If he could maintain his current approval rating, he would likely participate in next year's election and get the position of mayor.

This immediately made countless politicians discover new wealth codes. These people immediately accused the local Internet of Things for not being able to deploy, and promised their voters that they would find ways to promote Internet infrastructure, promote technological innovation of local operators, etc.

The remarks of these councillors undoubtedly put great pressure on the state and municipal governments, because if they do not find a way to do something, they will lose their votes, so they can only hold an urgent meeting to discuss the strengthening and improving network infrastructure.

The first to make changes was Paro, a city south of San Francisco. Many people may not know the name of this city, but Stanford University and Silicon Valley are famous all over the world.

It is precisely because Paro has top universities like Stanford and Internet high-tech parks like Silicon Valley that the demand for the Internet is undoubtedly the highest. Similarly, Internet companies have the greatest voice in the Paro Municipal Government. More than half of the members of parliament have received political donations from major Internet companies, and these people must speak for their bosses.

So in just a few days, Paro City first approved up to $500 million in infrastructure projects, and then conducted public bidding.

Paro City started, which also made other states and cities more urgency. Soon, cities such as San Francisco, Los Angeles, New York and other cities began to bid for Internet construction, and state and municipal governments in various places also continued to deliver televised speeches, expressing their determination to improve the local Internet situation.

As the bidding activities in various prefectures and cities unfolded, crazy competition began between telecom operators.

Faced with such changes in the situation, Zhou Ming and Caitlin did not sit idly by, but actively participated.

"The United States telephone is the largest and most powerful telecom operator in the United States, with Westminster and Tereson ranked second. Although the United States has the strongest and most extensive coverage, Westminster and Tereson also have their own very solid basics. For example, in Stanford and Silicon Valley, most of them use Tereson's lines."

"In addition to these three major telecom operators, there are more than a dozen large and small telecom operators and independent communication equipment engineering companies, and these companies also have relatively stable basic foundations. Therefore, I think the Internet infrastructure construction action launched in the entire United States can greatly drive the development of the telecom industry. Not only the three major telecom operators, but other small companies are also worth investing."

This is Caitlin's analysis result, which is generally consistent with Zhou Ming's previous judgment. Since the US communications engineering construction has not been completely separated from operators, most of the construction orders in various states and cities will flow into the pockets of the three major operators. However, no matter how strong the three major operators are, they will not monopolize all orders. There will always be a considerable number of orders flow into the pockets of other secondary operators and engineering companies.

So eager to make this judgment, Caitlin proposed a plan: to invest in three major operators, mainly secondary operators and engineering companies.
