Chapter 640

Creak, creak, the sea breeze in the morning makes every antique wooden door in the villa call. Song Ya is awakened by the sour sound, kisses Maria Kelly who is still smiling at the corner of her mouth, puts on her clothes and gets up.

"Is this place to be repaired?"

Linda and Maria Kelly's assistant were making coffee at the bar next to the open kitchen. Hayden was reading with a newspaper. The door of the balcony facing the sea was opened, and the white curtain was blowing in the wind. It was like a big balloon hunting.

"You see, it's beginning to rust."

Song Ya pointed to some iron structures in the room, "and the door is always ringing, just like the cry of a woman."

"Look at you. If you like these old works of art, they need to be maintained all year round."

Hayden folded the newspaper and handed it over.

"The Federal Trade Commission launched an antitrust investigation into several major record companies..."

In the news, Daniel was surrounded by his entourage and pulled out the photos surrounded by reporters. It should be what happened before he came to the celebration dinner last night.

"This guy..." Song Ya threw the newspaper into the dustbin. "Can we help him?"

Although I am very angry with Daniel now, I have no other choice but to continue to support him.

"No, wait a minute. This kind of lawsuit will take a long time. After all, the FTC's claim to seek billions of dollars in fines is considered too radical. Donovan and I just talked on the phone. Except for polaroid, the five major record companies will take it seriously. According to the current situation of the record industry, even if it is apportioned, we can't afford to pay the money. Of course, Daniel's side has the greatest pressure, and no one knows what the capital management will react to. "

"We don't have to use energy for them, and our political relations don't look at this kind of thing," Hayden said

"Well."

Songya takes the coffee from Linda's hand. "By the way, who did you say yesterday was the former owner of this house?"

"The Maxwell family, the former owner of the mirror group, was the British media magnate who owed hundreds of millions of pounds in debt and died at sea in 1991."

"He inherited the two sons of the mirror group and will be sued in court this year. He is in a hurry to take action. This is one of the holiday villas, which has not been maintained since 1992, and has only hired a gardener to take care of it regularly," Hayden said

"Oh, I know, that legendary Jewish old man also called Robert? It is said that he is a multi-faceted spy... "

Song ya got interested and went back to visit it carefully. Because the house was built on the cliff, the main building was not big, with an area of more than 3000 square feet and only four bedrooms. However, every piece of furniture and furnishings were old and exquisite. Many Hayden did not know how many years ago, and where the works of art came from, just like those who were robbed by the British and bought from the United States far away Wood carvings, however, are generally short of maintenance, and the paint on them is mottled.

"Do you want someone to repair it? Do you want to repair the old as it is, or do you want to replace it with a new one? " "It's cheaper to get a new one," Hayden said after him. "If you keep it the same, you need to hire more people."

"I'll talk to Mimi first."

Song Ya didn't make up his mind. He liked the decoration style here, but it must cost money to repair it. He enjoyed the wooden rattan fossils dug out from the Amazon basin. Now it's made into a shelf, with ivory like beautiful cream white. "I'm going back to Chicago today, and I'll go to New York after exam week to concentrate on wedding preparation. Here Put it first. After all, neither she nor I will live here very often

"She's definitely going to film stardream's tears in the second half of the year." "She was serious about her first shock," Hayden warned

"I know, after the wedding."

"Jimmy." Linda handed me her cell phone.

"Well, boss, are you in Los Angeles, too?" Jimmy's voice came from the other end in a timid voice.

"Yes, what's the matter?" Song Ya asked.

"I have something to report to you Can I see you? "

"All right, you come." Songya, give Linda a call.

"Where are you, Jimmy? All right, drive up California Avenue. We're at Yes, it's not far from ponitdume State Beach... "

Linda guides Jimmy to bring the car to the villa.

"What's the matter? Jimmy. " As soon as song Ya looked at his trembling face, he knew there was bad news.

"Er..."

Jimmy stood in the middle of the living room, his hands hanging over his sides, glancing at Linda and Hayden.

"Come on, do you have any secrets you can't let your own people know?" Song Ya didn't have a good voice, "say it quickly."

"Well, there seems to be something wrong with 3dfx..." Said Jimmy.

"What's the problem? If you have something to do, you can finish it at one time. " 3dfx song ya, however, had to throw five million swords to get it No, it's 20% of the shares.

"They can't make usable chips at all this year..." Jim replied.

“WTF？”

Sonya black question mark, "you You wait, they can't make usable chips this year? What do you mean? Last year, I saw the demonstration effect of his chip at the computer exhibition"The demo of the war game?"

"Yes..."

Song Ya still remembers the 3D graphics technology that was beyond the level of the whole field, and all the colleagues present at that time had black faces.

"That demo is fake." Said Jimmy.

"Fake? No way, I saw it with my own eyes... "

"It's fake, boss At that time, they only made a piece of software, that is, the technology called graphics engine, which was achieved by running on SGI's professional graphics workstation Jim replied.

Song Ya opened his mouth and was stunned for a long time. "No, no, it's still impossible. The SGI graphics workstation is very large. I didn't see any..."

"They hid the SGI graphics workstation right under the demo platform, directly connected to the monitor on the stage..."

“……”

Are you really fooled? Song Ya recalled the warning given to him by boss Hu, who was an innovator at that time. He said that the level of 3dfx could never surpass that of the industry too much. People from NV company and imperial alliance company also kept saying, "it's impossible." so

"How do you know about it?" He wanted to struggle for the last time.

"The three founders of 3dfx disclosed that they were elated and boasted to the technology media that they had obtained tens of millions of venture capital through this move, and from you alone, they got five million..." Said Jimmy.

"Oh! M-FXXK！”

Finally determined and sure that he was cheated by the three second rate cheaters. Song Ya was so angry that he dropped his coffee cup to the ground. How could he send bad news in March? No wonder that Jim Clark, as the former founder of SGI, once led the boss of 3dfx, who did not invest money in it.

"Honey, what's the matter?"

Maria Kelly and her assistant came out of the bedroom, looking at the broken tiles all over the floor, and came to him worried.

"Nothing I was a little excited just now. Linda, clean up this place

Song Ya comforts her.

"I don't know about it, but can I sue those guys?" Asked Hayden.

"At that time, you don't know, the investors were scrambling to be able to invest, I There are no relevant binding terms in the investment agreement we signed, otherwise they would not sign it either... "

Like a child who did something wrong, Jimmy hung his head and held his hands unconsciously. "My fault, boss, you said before to give me a last chance. I screwed up, so..."

"You fool

Song Ya also knew that he was not to blame. It was the same problem. It was the ability to cheat people within the scope of the law. So the three founders of 3dfx would boast about "small tricks" as the basis of their talks. They all blame themselves for the fact that after seeing the demo effect, they were so excited to force Jimmy to finish the investment as soon as possible, even the innovative Mr. Hu and other people in the industry at that time Reaction did not care, in the heart also secretly ridiculed them jealousy peer, now his face was slapped! Damn it, "but I don't blame you this time."

"What shall we do now?" Asked Jimmy.

"Let's go to San Jose."

Song Ya forced herself to calm down and thought carefully, "Linda, call Tony and the muffler. Since the scammers 3dfx have taken so much money from me, they have to make the products for me anyway, otherwise Otherwise, I won't make them feel better! "
