Reborn in America: Starting as a California Resident

In turn, Meimeng Software demonstrated sufficient sincerity in its cooperation.

They assured that their software, compatible with major operating systems, was in the final, well-organized testing phase and that a preliminary product version would be delivered in just twenty days.

Within a month at most, each company will be able to obtain a finished software product that is fully compatible with its own computer hardware.

Faced with rapid market changes and such an efficient collaborative plan, these IT giants naturally did not hesitate to decide to join forces with Dreamsoft.

In this capital-driven world, short-term profits are always the most tempting.

The partnership with Dreamsoft can not only rapidly increase sales, but also bring substantial profits to these companies.

More importantly, these professional managers' bonuses are closely linked to the company's performance;

Instead of risking huge sums of money to conduct independent research and development in pursuit of uncertain breakthroughs, it is far better to seize this win-win opportunity, go with the flow, and maximize the interests of both parties.

Once the office suite from Dreamsoft was launched, Apple immediately intensified its marketing campaign, with the sales team going all out and sales soaring. It seemed that the goal of selling 20,000 computers within a month was within reach.

Many small and medium-sized enterprises have begun to consult with Apple about purchasing the software, hoping to obtain support for this new software as soon as possible, thereby improving work efficiency and seizing market opportunities.

In an instant, the entire industry was revitalized by this collaboration, and the name of Meimeng Software resounded throughout the industry, making it a rising star.

However, unlike the enthusiastic market response, Wall Street analysts remain cautious about Apple.

Although they acknowledged that Apple's market value was undervalued, they were not in a hurry to adjust their rating.

In this era, gaining favor from the capital market is by no means easy.

As for Dream Software, analysts are even more confused.

In their view, software companies lack tangible assets, their brand value is difficult to quantify, and while a young and dynamic team is an advantage, it also makes them hesitant about valuation.

If I had to give a figure, it probably wouldn't exceed a mere twenty million US dollars.

Amid this complex market atmosphere, several well-known American media outlets began to focus on Dreamsoft and its backer, Chairman Henry Getty.

The Los Angeles Times, the San Francisco Chronicle, the San Francisco Examiner, and the San Jose Mercury News, all influential newspapers in San Francisco and throughout California, began publishing a series of in-depth reports on Dream Software.

In particular, an article in the San Francisco Chronicle was especially noteworthy.

This report, titled "Dream Software: The Soul of Technology," was written by renowned technology commentator Alex Jensen.

In the article, Jason enthusiastically expressed his views on Dreamsoft: "This company is not just a simple software supplier, but the soul that drives the entire technology industry forward."

It has inspired innovation across the industry and driven new standards for the integration of hardware and software.

......

In this rapidly changing era, only by truly combining technological innovation with user experience can we ultimately win the trust and support of consumers.

After the article was published, it not only caused a sensation in the industry, but also aroused great interest among the general public in this emerging software company.

More and more voices are calling for more attention and support for this startup.

Many investors have also begun to re-evaluate the potential of Dream Software, no longer simply viewing it as a ticket to ride the coattails of the richest family.

"Mr. Getty, what a coincidence! I didn't expect to see you again so soon."

"Yes! What a coincidence!"

At San Francisco Airport, Henry had just completed a crucial step for Dream Software and was once again embarking on his journey to New York.

This time, he once again chose American Express's private jet service, a service he was familiar with.

To his surprise, the plane that served him this time was the same Boeing 747 as last time.

Along with him was Alice Williams, the beautiful flight attendant who had given him subtle hints during their previous trip.

When he saw Alice again, the blonde, blue-eyed beauty still amazed him.

This blonde beauty seems to combine the charm of Gisele Bündchen and Monica Bellucci, possessing not only a perfect face but also a tall and well-proportioned figure.

His previous encounter had left him longing for it, and this reunion only fueled his interest.

Therefore, when boarding, Henry couldn't help but give her a smile, a treatment he hadn't given to the other five flight attendants.

This smile further convinced Alice that her waiting these past few days had been worthwhile—she had specifically requested this flight from the airline.

As the plane climbed to an altitude of 20,000 feet, Henry handed Alice a business card.

"Hello, Alice. This is my business card."

If you're willing to work for me, you can come to the 49th floor of the Empire State Building on Fifth Avenue in Manhattan, New York, before June of this year, with this business card.

I believe this could be a life-changing opportunity for you.

All the flight attendants, including Alice, were somewhat surprised by Henry's sudden action.

However, Alice reacted quickly, smiling and replying, "Yes, sir."

So, what preparations should I make beforehand?

Her answer was just right, which pleased Henry greatly.

"Um... before answering your question, I'd like to confirm whether you have a university degree?"

"Yes,"

Alice answered without hesitation, "I have a Bachelor of Science degree in Management from Northwestern University."

"What?"

Henry almost thought he had misheard.

After all, this answer was truly unexpected.

As is widely known, although Northwestern University's name may not sound particularly impressive, it is undoubtedly a world-renowned university with exceptional prestige.

As a founding member of the Big Ten Conference and a member of the Association of American Universities (AAU), this private research university located in Evanston, Illinois, was ranked 28th in the 2024 Times Higher Education World University Rankings and 9th in the United States.

Alice's ability to obtain a bachelor's degree from this university, especially in NU's strongest field, undoubtedly proves that she must have been an outstanding student during her school years.

Furthermore, she is very likely a top student from a wealthy family!
