Reborn in America: Starting as a California Resident

As the group entered the office, many programmers immediately noticed the boss standing in the center.

They nodded in greeting and exchanged brief acquaintances.

"Good afternoon, Thomas. How come you're still so strong? Even your chair is probably protesting against you."

"Good afternoon, William. Don't drink such strong coffee anymore, or you'll have insomnia again tonight."

......

Henry was down-to-earth and greeted every programmer he encountered in a friendly manner.

He knew the names and preferences of everyone here like the back of his hand;

After all, he personally recruited these people!

After a brief exchange of pleasantries, the group entered Henry's private office.

This office is the largest office on the entire floor.

Alexander pointed to the lit computer screen on the table and said, "This computer contains all the results of our team's hard work over the past month."

We have completed the software development for Apple and other major brands in the market.

This is the patent data we intend to apply for. Please have both lawyers review it.

As he spoke, Alexander handed the two lawyers a stack of documents that had been prepared in advance. These documents detailed dozens of innovative technologies that Dreamsoft had recently developed.

"These...are all of these?"

Michael Grant, the bald, white little old man, gently stroked the edge of the document, his face full of surprise.

As members of a law firm that has long collaborated with the Getty family, they had already conducted a thorough investigation into the background of Dreamsoft before arriving here.

I initially thought it was just a newly established startup;

Even if a patent application is required, it will only be a very small number of applications.

He really didn't expect that the other party could produce so many patent documents in such a short time!

This must have shocked him greatly!

"That's right!"

Henry's sharp eyes scanned the lines of elegant code before him.

After confirming that the program code was accurate, he slightly raised his head, picked up the Blue Mountain coffee in front of him, and took a sip: "This is why I invited you here today."

"I hope you won't let me down!"

"Of course!"

Seeing that her partner was somewhat flustered, Lisa Carter stepped forward and took over the conversation: "Mr. Getty, please rest assured, we are professional patent lawyers with extensive practical experience."

We will do everything in our power to ensure that every patent you entrust to us is successfully registered.

Years of industry experience and a keen business sense allowed them to roughly estimate the lucrative profits of this business, even without precise financial calculations.

Even a conservative estimate would put it at tens of thousands of US dollars!

One case can be worth almost the equivalent of several years' income for an average person;

It must be said that such a figure is truly staggering.

Being a lawyer is fucking lucrative!

Of course, they would do their best even if Henry Getty didn't pay them any fees.

It's not that they have lofty sentiments and regard money as dirt;

This was simply because, at that time, the Getty family still wielded considerable influence in California!

Although Paul Getty, the richest man in the 1950s, has passed away, the enormous wealth belonging to the Getty family has not disappeared.

Maintaining a long-term partnership with such a wealthy family would bring immeasurable benefits to their law firm and the family behind them.

Never underestimate any tycoon in a capitalist country; they are the true masters of this nation who hold the power of discourse!

After a thorough review and evaluation, both parties happily signed the patent commission agreement.

Alexander politely led the two lawyers away, making sure they left satisfied and respectful.

At the same time, Henry Getty gently pushed open the heavy wooden door to his office and stepped back into the vibrant open-plan workspace.

His steps were light, yet carried an undeniable sense of authority.

Simply by standing in the center of the office area, the bustling scene around him suddenly froze, and all eyes were fixed on him: "Ahem!"

Ladies and gentlemen, every minute and second we have spent together during this period has been incredibly precious.

Your hard work has transformed the Dream Software concept into reality; your wisdom and sweat have forged the extraordinary soul of this product.

"The company will never forget everyone's contributions. In order to reward this effort, I have decided to officially launch an equity incentive plan after all the software systems are perfected."

Every gentleman and lady here will become a master of the company and share in this hard-won success.

Let's join hands and work together to make Dreamsoft stand at the pinnacle of the technology industry!

"Oh ho!"

Upon hearing this, a burst of enthusiastic cheers suddenly erupted from the crowd.

The most eye-catching of them all is Thomas, the "strongman".

He stepped forward and embraced Henry, who was still giving a speech, giving him a magical spin.

"Alright, alright!"

Thomas, stop!

"You're making me want to throw up."

Stopping the nearly oblivious fat man, Henry managed to stand still, smiled, and continued, "Everyone's efforts now will determine our respective futures."

Whether it's living in a luxurious villa or owning your own private estate;

Everything depends on our hands and our determination.

Go for it, my fellow millionaires and multi-millionaires!

"Long live the Boss!"

"We will do everything in our power to complete this mission!"

Henry's words resonated deeply, touching the hearts of everyone present.

The long-term hard work finally paid off, and the originally serious work environment instantly turned into a sea of ​​joy.

A dozen or so employees surrounded Henry, their eyes sparkling with excitement and anticipation, as if they could already see the infinite possibilities of the future.

Feeling the rare and enthusiastic atmosphere, Henry was filled with pride.

He knew that only a team like this could create a true miracle.

While one's own innovative ideas are very important, without the building and improvement of a team, everything is just a mirage.

In this country where capitalism reigns supreme, empty emotional promises are meaningless; only tangible rewards can truly win hearts and minds and inspire the team's fighting spirit.

Although the Dream software is still somewhat rudimentary in Henry Getty's eyes today;

But he also understood that this was merely a result he had judged from the perspective of later generations.

In this era when the technological wave was just beginning to sweep across the land, the sales of computer software were booming, and its market prosperity was comparable to that of the later-famous Zhongguancun.

However, beneath this surging enthusiasm lies a quagmire of chaos—from the software packaging to the promotional strategies, everything is shockingly poorly made.
