Two brothers, two dark backgrounds, one company.
Friedrich and Hank Richtofen were both born on the 25th of februrary 1954 at the local hospital in the little village of Nurnburg, Germany. Their father, Edward Richtofen were an old crazy nazi-scientist who stood by Hitler´s side during the war. He experimented with human brains and the effects of torture. Therefore he wanted Friedrich and Hank to be the same as him. Their father died in an tragic car accident when the boys were 16years old though. so his dream never got anything more but an illusion. The boys also lost their mother Margreth Richtofen by then, so they where all alone in the big world.,
On the 13th of September 1970 they used the savings their dad had made and got on a plane towards America in hope of achieving ”the american dream”. They settled down in Los Santos on the westcoast and started working as mechanics.
One day they got a call. It was from the local newspaper which´s only car had broke down. The boys went directly to their office, got their tools and headed over to the building of the news corporation.
After fixing the vehicle the boys got an idea. They wanted to start their own business which only should be doing media ”stuff” such as radio, papers and of course Television which was a new thing to the world by then.
Since Hank had an source working at the company ”San Andreas-BusinessNames Inc.” They bought the name San Andreas News Network for a small fee.
The boys invested in getting a whole floor of a skyscraper to start their business for real. Their company grew, grew and grew even more, and guess what!? It grew even more! By the millenium shift their company, San Andreas News Network had grown so much it was the biggest News company on the westcoast, covering three major cities. The brothers who then had about onehundred and thirty employees decided to invest in a new hub. The old movieproducing-stages were for sale so it became the best option. As they bought the new hub they also changed name to SAN News.
This year, 2011, SAN News is the fourth biggest news company in The States. Their hub is still the old movieproducing-stages in Los Santos. Friedrich and Hank are still the CEO´s of the company which is still growing aswell as its number of employees are increasing. Who knows.... maybe one day you´ll end up there sitting on the applicant desk with the two brothers Richtofen in front of you.
