In 2012, APLUS was in the hearing, age: 37, personal wealth: 40 billion meters.
The black Pharaoh’s face below is already fatter, and it looks much greasy than before, but the tycoon’s style is undoubtedly obvious. He no longer pays attention to the camera, and has been looking at the documents on the table with his eyelids down, his ring finger pressed against it. On the paper documents, thinking about something alone, there is no way to see any emotions from the expression.
"The world hasn't come out of the financial crisis yet, but these rich people are even richer." An editor looked at the string of complaints behind the four.
"Yeah." The editor-in-chief didn't want to talk about this issue.
Senator McKean, who represented the Elephant Party losing the election in 2008, was reading the manuscript. Song Ya slid the document on the table while listening intently.
A few minutes later, the questioning session began, "APLUS, I have a document here, which shows that the current campaign team led by The service called'Internet Data Consultation' is used to assist the election. Can you confirm its authenticity?" An Elephant Party senator raised a document and asked a question.
The lawyers around him pushed the relevant documents and the ‘correct answer’ to the front.
"Yes, I confirm, Mr. Senator." Song Ya leaned into the microphone and replied.
"According to the investigation by the Election Special Prosecutor's Office, your Internet consulting department called a large amount of data from the YAHOO search engine, including user information, search keywords and other personal privacy-related content..."
"Speaking of inaccurate calls, it is more appropriate to use Internet-based public information retrieval technology. Some senators. Litman Media attaches great importance to protecting the privacy of users, let alone infringing on it. This is our obligation."
"Haha, given that you also held shares in YAHOO at the time."
"I'm just a small investor, and I have never held any position in YAHOO. The two parties are only a business partnership."
In 2009, Song Ya cooperated with Karl Icahn and other YAHOO shareholders to go crazy, and successfully forced YAHOO to agree to a premium acquisition of more than 40 billion US dollars from Microsoft, and took the money out of it. "And now all of them have withdrawn, Mr. Senator."
If you don’t accompany Microsoft and the richest man to challenge Comcast’s Robertson family, everything will be perfect. Song Ya feels a little regretful, "What? I didn’t understand. I’m sorry, Mr. Senator."
"I mean, you and Litman Media deeply participated in and manipulated the 2008 election. Do you admit this?"
"No, Mr. Senator."
"A...Mr. Song, according to the information we have, OpenDiary under Litman Media is currently one of the most popular social networking sites for Americans to log in. You are also the world's largest personal blog, social game and classified based on topics and interests. Online communication community. At the same time, OpenDiary has not yet provided account login verification services on other websites. The current market share is..."
"Yes."
"The Beats website owned by your Palm company is currently the world's second largest online music store and the largest music exchange community and record database."
"Yes."
"Have you used this data for campaigns, or used it to assist in pushing campaign advertisements to target groups? Answer me after you think about it."
"OpenDiary and Beats websites have the strictest privacy protection clauses, and all our actions are legal..."
Nonsense, of course, and the 2008 general election made him more truly aware of the power of using these big data techniques to influence public opinion and the power of the general election, but Song Ya will not admit it, and of course he cannot deny it directly. Anyway, the hearing He knows how to skillfully, "Mr. Senator."
"Please answer me positively."
"This is a difficult question to answer simply. Mr. Senator, the Internet is open. The concept of Web2.0 is that users are not only the viewers of website content but also the creators and sharers of website content. Users themselves are interactive or passive. In interactive social behaviors, they actively share public information with others. This information..."
Song Ya began to drop his bookbags and repeat reading long stories.
"Puff..." Jenny, who was watching the broadcast outside, couldn't help but laughed when she saw this familiar scene. The man's trick has been tried and tested for more than ten years.
The older veterans can’t keep up with their ideas at all. They don’t understand at all, and they can’t really take a world’s fifth richest man, whose industries span media and entertainment, the Internet, chip design, consumer electronics, winemaking, and even defense subcontracting. The new Chicago consortium in other fields is thinking about it. The detention is nothing more than to disrupt the re-election campaign of the current commander. They also don't want the rare time to be wasted, so they soon began to'appeal to emotions'.
"I still have a document here, or a form."
McKean also showed new evidence to show, “You and the companies and organizations you control will score the candidates of Quanmi according to this table, and then combine the data collected by you for infringing on the privacy of users to comprehensively judge a candidate. The winning percentage, and then decide how much political contributions to invest in the opponent, is that right?"
"This is not true." Song Ya denied.
"Please repeat this answer again, pay attention to the record." McKean bluffed.
"This is not the truth, Mr. Senator."
This table was compiled by Sloan before. How many points should be added for supporting gun ban, how many points should be added for supporting issues such as racial equality, LGBTQ, feminist rights, immigration, abortion, etc. The candidates are ethnic minorities, women, immigrants, etc. LGBTQ and others have added how many points each. If the Elephant Party did not know how to get this watch, it would be impossible for him to be forced to sit on this chair today.
Fortunately, the form in their hands is not a complete version, and the chain of evidence that can be traced back to themselves or their own companies and organizations is not sufficient. "I don't know that there is such a form... In fact, this is the first time I have seen it."
"You are lying, giving false testimony at the Congressional hearing!"
"I promise I don't, Mr. Senator."
"Hehe, APLUS, do you know what people in the U.S. Congress call you and your congressmen in private here?"
"Let's say there is no such thing as my councillor."
"A+ Network! And you are the real center of this dirty political spider web! Not the person in the White House!"
"This word sounds like an inferior copy of Koch's octopus, ha..."
Song Ya showed his sharp rebellion and immediately raised his hand and surrendered. "I was just a joking Senator. I did fund some campaigns, but what I did was related to other political interests. White Americans are no different."
McEnough was enough, and he didn't pursue it any more.
Passed easily, Pierre Sutton and the lawyer did not interrupt the reminder in the middle, Song Ya then had a leisurely mind and Joe made a POSE and accepted the pictures of the reporters who came round.
"A wealthy African-American funded the African-American leader. Because of this, he was summoned by the Elephant Party to be besieged on Capitol Hill! Defamation! Persecution!"
That night, Rashida scolded in grief on the anchor station, "This is racial discrimination! Think about it, if APLUS is white, would he be treated like this?"

Four years later.
The New York Philharmonic Orchestra's special concert was going on, and the box stand was very dark. Song Ya turned his eyes back and quietly looked at his son Rega.
