Chapter 5, The First Person to Eat Crab

Diana was quite surprised to see Song Yang return so early, as he rarely came back at such an hour. It was even more common for him not to return at night. Noticing Song Yang looking towards the study, Diana couldn't help but feel that he might have gotten himself into some trouble again. If one day he were to bring home a grandson or granddaughter, she wouldn't be surprised at all.

"Isn't it just because of a woman? Tonight, I will invite a few more girls, and I guarantee that Song will forget that skinny sparrow by tomorrow!" Haley said to Gallo.

Now, Song Yang saw a road appear before him, which made him both excited and uneasy; he did not know what would happen when facing those once renowned figures.

It was already late at night, and Gallo's small apartment was still brightly lit. Hailey had long since fallen asleep, while Gallo sat idly with Song Yang. The floor was already littered with a pile of empty bottles and cigarette butts.

When Song Yang entered the study, as Anna had anticipated, within two minutes, the sound of Grek's angry voice echoed from the study

Gailo, please buy the recent issues of "Vanity Fair," "Wired," "The New Yorker," and "Computer Magazine" for me

Gallo made a helpless expression; if it were Gallo who had to deal with Grek regarding that sum of money, it would likely lead to a dramatic father-son gunfight that would shake the heavens.

If Song Yang knew that Gai Luo was thinking about this nonsense, he would really pour him a few bottles of whiskey to cool him down

Gailuo patted Song Yang on the shoulder

In the morning, with dark circles under his eyes, after arriving at Devers School, Song Yang's mind was not at all in the classroom. He did not go to the baseball training field in the afternoon and only briefly mentioned to Jenny, with whom he had been getting along well these past few days, before hurriedly returning to the Grek household

Haley saw Song Yang, who was focused and surrounded by books, resembling a delicate oil painting. She felt that the group of little vixens she knew would likely be unable to contain themselves upon witnessing this scene

You will have to discuss this with the old man yourself, but for anything else, feel free to let me know if you need my assistance

He is merely an ordinary person from a future university, with a slight talent for technology. His previous aspiration was simply to secure a job at a leading internet company after graduation.

Song Yang ignored the nonsensical remarks of Gai Luo, as he prepared to go downstairs to purchase all the recent newspapers related to technology and economics

Although Gallo verbally supported him, in reality, he shared the same sentiments as Ryan and did not hold much hope for Song Yang. Every year, countless entrepreneurs emerge in America, yet only one in ten thousand truly succeeds. Not to mention, Song Yang lacked both experience and capital. Gallo felt that perhaps once this wave passed, Song Yang would quietly withdraw.

Upon hearing that Song Yang had set his sights on that sum of money, Gallo gave Song Yang a look that suggested he should count his blessings. He was well aware of Grek's temperament, which was certainly not easy to deal with

Hearing this nonsensical remark, Gallo became even more worried. He wondered if he should hire an Indian shaman to communicate with Song Yang's spirit or something like that, as he had heard that many issues could not be detected by hospital examinations

Seeing Song Yang finally put down the last magazine and start to pinch his brow, Gallo couldn't help but ask, "Song, what exactly are you planning to do?"

Seeing Gallo and Haley getting up, truly ready to search all of Houston for those few worn-out magazines for Song Yang, Ryan couldn't help but shake his head. The party in the evening was definitely off, and he was preparing to get up and change venues.

Upon hearing this, Gallo immediately took charge and said to the *book*, "No problem, anytime is fine, Jaden is also my brother!"

Gailo, after all, has some experience. Although the racing company he is with is essentially a makeshift team, Gailo understands how difficult it is to get things done.

"Is there something going on with Grek in the study? Should I go talk to him?" Diana asked

However, just now, Song Yang inexplicably recalled a phrase: someone has to do it, so why can't it be him

Jaden, Bleso Jaden, you have met him before. Do you remember the prom when I took you with me? You even flirted with a senior girl. She is now at the University of Houston and has previously asked Jaden about you!

He knows that he must provide an explanation to Gallo and Grek, as he will need their assistance moving forward

No need, Song Yang took a deep breath, "I will go talk to Uncle Grek!"

Aunt Danna! As soon as Song Yang entered the door, he peeked curiously towards the study.

Listening to Song Yang, Gallo widened his eyes. He questioned whether his intelligence was adequate, yet after just a glance at the television, he discovered a problem. He wondered if they were watching the same television, as he saw soap operas and entertainment news about celebrities, while Song Yang was able to identify the issue.

At this moment, Song Yang turned around and looked at Gai Luo, saying something nonsensical, "Someone has to do it, so why can't it be me?!"

Speaking of this, Gallo immediately became alert and quickly recalled it, speaking with great enthusiasm.

Looking at Ryan, who was shaking his head, Gallo also felt uncertain in his heart, but still rebutted Ryan for the sake of Song Yang, saying, "No matter what Song wants to do, I support him this time. When we started this racing company with Tushu, no one supported us either"

Previously, Song Yang had never considered standing up at this moment to confront those prominent figures who had once appeared on television, in magazines, and even in textbooks.

This made Song Yang's heart race. At this moment, he stood up, believing that in the annals of internet history, he would not only be a figure of great respect but at the very least, he would leave his name, Song Yang, in the global internet industry.

There is indeed one thing that requires your assistance, " Song Yang rummaged through the memories in his mind, " I remember that you have a classmate in the Computer Science Department at the University of Houston, named ... ... "

After Song Yang left, Gallo, Hailey, and Ryan were left looking at each other in confusion. Ryan was momentarily stunned, then he looked at Gallo and Hailey and burst into laughter, "You can't possibly believe what he said, can you!"

Song Yang automatically filtered out Gallo's words; discussing them now is utterly pointless. It is only when one truly deals with the US dollar that a person's true character can be revealed

"Trust me, Gallo," Ryan said, taking a sip of his drink, and with the self-deprecating tone of someone with experience, he continued, "Gallo, I don't know what that guy Song is trying to do, but as you've seen from our racing company's experiences over the past few years, do you think he can succeed?"

Today, while watching television, Professor Tristan from New York University engaged in a debate with Barnard, which sparked an idea in me: perhaps I have a way to resolve the current dilemmas of the internet

Gailuo looked at Song Yang and tentatively said, "Song, I remember there is a famous medium on 13th Street, perhaps we should pay a visit!"

But why do I feel that this time Song might really have hope!" Hailey murmured softly, this time Song Yang was unprecedentedly serious, of course, this was related to Song Yang's good looks. If the same words came out of Ryan's mouth, she would just take it as nonsense.

Gailuo opened his mouth; he wanted to ask Song Yang how he saw these things. However, upon reflection, considering that Song Yang inherited the genius of his father, it seemed that being able to see these things was merely a trivial matter

After a sleepless night, Gallo returned to his room, while Song Yang made do on the sofa in the living room. At this moment, Song Yang found it impossible to sleep; the thought of stepping onto the stage and interacting with the figures from the textbooks made him restless and unable to settle down.

Song Yang lay on the sofa, stretching his weary body, "I can only turn to Uncle Grek now to get that compensation money out!"

Song Yang listened with a dark expression, wondering what on earth this was. He felt that the previous person was extremely unreliable, not knowing where they had buried the landmines.

At this moment, on the eve of the global internet wave, those well-known technology giants are either just being established or still stumbling in search of a way forward

As a nation where everyone practices a religion, even the supreme leader took office with a scripture in hand. It is not to say that the people of this land are not superstitious; otherwise, there would not be so many cults, sorcerers, and mediums thriving in this region, profiting immensely from their deceptions

"This is Jaden, can you help me get in touch with him? I might need to meet him!" Song Yang quickly interrupted Gallo's reminiscence.

Before leaving, Song Yang was changing his shoes while speaking to Gallo and Hailey, "This is very important; it not only concerns me but also whether your repair shop can transform into a racing company. Hailey, whether you can enter Hollywood depends on this as well"

Seeing Song Yang staring intently at the television, completely oblivious to his words, Gallo couldn't help but feel a wave of concern. He turned to Haley, who was beside a book on the table, and said, "Song, could it be that something is really wrong with his mind"

Song Yang knew that Grek was holding a sum of compensation money from when Song Yang's father and mother passed away, and Grek had never touched that money over the years

Looking at Song Yang, Gallo's expression of concern deepened. He knew that Song Yang had never liked these things before; the basketball court, parties, and girls were Song Yang's true loves. Now, he was actually willing to give up tonight's party for that pile of worthless books. What else could this indicate if not a problem

Gailuo observed Song Yang, not out of fear that Song Yang would do something absurd, but rather out of genuine concern that Song Yang might get involved with something unscientific. He was even contemplating whether to invite a medium to help settle the situation.

Song Yang took a puff of smoke, then drank a large gulp of alcohol and said, "This thing is definitely not healthy, but it is enough to invigorate me. The Song Yang of my previous life never experienced this."

Thinking of this, Song Yang no longer hesitated. He basically had nothing left to ponder over; at most, he would waste half a year and then end up unable to attend university, working at KFC serving plates. However, if he succeeded, the situation would be reversed, with various universities inviting Song Yang for on-site evaluations.

Grek's character is indeed reliable, not to mention that he also holds a lawyer's status. Over the years, while he may not have treated Song Yang as his own, the treatment Song Yang receives is on par with that of Gallo and Logan, ensuring that he never lacks for clothing or food. The sum of money Grek once mentioned was intended for Song Yang's college education.

What are you planning to do?" Gallo asked Song Yang.

Song Yang was perplexed about what exactly Gallo and Hailey were thinking. At this moment, he was nurturing a thought that made him both anxious and excited

He took out a cigarette from Gallo's pack, took a puff, and Song Yang, who was experiencing this thing for the first time, couldn't help but cough a bit, but he felt much more invigorated.
