Back To 1995

  Chapter 1180 Pull on the thief boat

   "Little Alan Bell stand up!"

  When the telecommunications industry was struggling with Skype, Song Yang, who returned to Houston, was accompanying little Alan Bell.

  Milia was teasing little Alan Bell there, Jenny was watching, and Hayley was holding a small DV recorder, recording the scene of little Alan Bell turning over for the first time.

  Little Alan Bell, who is less than four months old, has just turned over and can't even get up, let alone stand up. Today is the day of baptism for little Alan Bell.

Baptism, wedding, and funeral are also the three most important ceremonies in the life of an American. In addition to the illusory prayers and blessings, the most important point of baptism is to formally establish the name and status of the baptist. Little Alan Bell After the baptism, he will officially become the first heir of the Bruno family, and the name of young Alan Bell will also appear on the inheritance agreement between Song Yang and Jenny before their wedding.

Alan Bell’s baptism was held in the Church of Bishop Andrew in the Diocese of Houston. It was originally just a small church, but after receiving many huge donations in recent years, it has been continuously renovated and expanded. Andrew’s Cathedral has become the largest in Texas. The church, which can accommodate 1,400 people to worship at the same time, is also one of the magnificent landmarks of Houston and even Texas.

Together with this cathedral, Andrew, who was just an ordinary pastor in the Houston community, has now become the speaker of the Diocese of Houston, and he can become the cardinal of Texas in a step further, and will be placed in the entire Texas Texas and even America, this is also a position that can affect countless people!

   "Bishop Andrew!"

Song Yang and Jenny, with little Alan Bell, accompanied by a large group of members of the Bruno family, came to Andrew's church. Song Yang looked up at the grand church in front of him, the Bruno family foundation, and these Most of Nianda's donations were gathered in this church.

  The current Andrew really has the demeanor of a master of Taoism. People who go to and from the church show respect when they see Andrew, which shows how influential Andrew is in Houston now.

Of course, this is because Andrew is on the church side. He has provided relief and alms to the slum community all year round, solved troubles for many community members, issued letters of recommendation for their children, provided employment positions, and even represented them with the head of Houston, Chuck Lord. Negotiations with Sri Lanka, etc., allow Andrew to gain such a huge influence.

Otherwise, even if Andrew is really profound, if he can't get any benefits, he raised his arms and shouted, who would want to go out and go shopping on the street? In the eyes of countless ordinary Houstonians, Andrew can help them solve all kinds of troubles and provide help. , That's why he is willing to become a devout believer of Andrew, and for Houston congressmen such as Chuck Rhodes, Andrew represents votes, which allows him to have both sides.

   "Little Alan Bell, he's a real angel!"

  Andrew took the little Alan Bell, watched the little Alan Bell and said to the members of the Bruno family that the relationship between him and the Bruno family needs no further words.

The Andrew Cathedral named after him, and the relief center here for the entire Houstonian supply, including Chuck Rhodes, the reason for giving him face, of course Andrew knows where it all came from Well, without the donation of a beautiful knife from the Bruno family, he has worn out his lips, and I am afraid that few people will listen.

Most of the people who came to the little Alan Bell's baptism today are members of the Bruno family and relatives and friends. Chuck Rhodes, a powerful figure in Houston, and Alan Bell's godfather Adrian and his wife will also come, but there are also some A few unexpected guests came uninvited.

   "Song!"

   Adrian and his wife came together. After greeting Song Yang, Adrian whispered to Song Yang, "There will be others coming today!"

   After a while, Song Yang knew who Adrian was referring to. Card, the chief of staff of the little cowboy and the director of the White House office, entered the church and nodded slightly to Song Yang.

   Seeing Card's arrival, all the powerful people in Houston who knew Card's identity showed surprise expressions. Card's status is special, and he basically represents the current Grand Commander and the Cowboy Family.

   "On behalf of the little cowboy commander and the cowboy family, bless this child!" Card said to Song Yang, and then sat aside.

Song Yang knew that Kade came here this time, probably nine out of ten, to be a lobbyist for some people. Song Yang just nodded to Kade, and then set his sights on the baptism. No matter why Card came here, it was nothing more important than the baptism of little Alan Bell.

Adrian, who was sitting next to Song Yang, said to Song Yang in a low voice, "Cad is probably here with the wishes of the little cowboy and Capitol Hill, and wants you to cooperate with the Telecom Operators Association Let's reach a settlement!"

   They are all like-minded people, and Adrian can guess what Card and the little cowboy want to do.

  If Song Yang wasn't behind Skype, I'm afraid Kade wouldn't have come this trip at all, and the commander-in-chief and the Federal Communications Commission wouldn't have had a bad relationship, so they would have gone directly to the Telecom Operators Association.

"I know!"

  Song Yang looked at the little Alan Bell in Andrew's hand, "I will not disobey the wishes of the little cowboy commander and Capitol Hill, but Skype, as a "victim", should not accept that agreement in such a humiliating way!"

Adrian listened to Song Yang's words, and he could hear that Song Yang didn't seem to be that opposed to the settlement, but it seemed that he was not too willing to reach a settlement agreement with those telecom giants so easily. Adrian couldn't help but feel a little weird, and couldn't guess what Song Yang was thinking.

   "Song, no matter when, I will stand by your side. If necessary, the state of Texas can express its support for the Skype platform!"

Adrian expressed his attitude to Song Yang. Regardless of the attitude of the little cowboy and other influential figures in the elephant party, he is always on Song Yang's side. No matter whether he can help or not, he has to show his attitude anyway. OK.

  Sitting at the back of the church and becoming the head of the White House Office, Card, whose hair has been completely gray for just a year and a half, looked at Song Yang and Adrian in front of him, and his brows frowned.

His trip this time is mainly to "persuade" Song Yang to accept the settlement negotiation. He believes that Song Yang is someone who knows what is more important. This time he represents the commander-in-chief, Capitol Hill, and the entire Ami With millions of telecommunications practitioners coming from Lijia, Song Yang should "consider" clearly that offending so many people at once, even Song Yang will have a hard time.

But if Song Yang and Adrian join forces, Kade really feels a bit tricky. Song Yang is the big donor of the Xiang Party, and may be the big donor for many years in the future, and Adrian is the leader of the Xiang Party. The mainstay of Zhengwang is also considered to be one of the few powerful figures who may represent the Elephant Party in the future and regain the leadership of Amerika.

It is easy to force Song Yang to bow his head now, but Card also has to consider whether he will offend Song Yang. Can be disgusting to death.

Look at the fate of the Kennedy family. It is still the top family in America, but it has fallen into a "curse". Every few years, a male of the Kennedy family encounters an "accident". It's almost time to catch up with the "Death Note" of the former leader and his wife. As for whether it was a real accident or a fake accident, only the devil knows. Anyway, the Kennedy family has become empty-handed these years, and Card doesn't want the Cowboy family to suffer from the curse. He doesn't know if something will happen to the cowboy family at that time, but he, a dog-headed military strategist and dog-legged son of the cowboy family, must be the first to be unlucky!

   After the baptism, the Bruno family held a dinner party. Kade took an opportunity and came to the study with Song Yang.

"Governor Song, Adrian, I am here this time to hope that the Skype platform can start reconciliation negotiations with the Telecom Operators Association. Don't worry, Song, Mr. Datong is on your side!" Card said With an attitude of "one of my own", he said to Song Yang.

Song Yang's attitude was very firm, "I'm sorry, Mr. Card, I am very grateful to Mr. Datong for his kindness, but there is nothing wrong with the Skype platform, why should a company that did not make a mistake settle, and a good person confess to the crime? !"

  Card was a bit confused by Song Yang's attitude. He was sure that Song Yang would not understand the rules of the world. This attitude was obvious, and it was intentional.

   "If we continue to fight, Skype may not be able to take advantage of it. Many overseas telecommunications giants are already preparing to block the Skype platform. Reconciliation now is beneficial to both parties!" Card said patiently.

   "It's okay to start reconciliation negotiations, but...all members of the American Telecom Operators Association must join the Starlink project!"
