Chapter 1300: Gaming Method, Control the Mouthpiece

Being one of the two players in the game, and the one desperate to win. The first thing the Stark government has to do in the game confrontation is to find out the details of the opponent and figure out the routine of the opponent.

The methods that the consortium can use are actually very simple. In the final analysis, they still use their own power to add obstacles to the Stark government, and by the way, use some shady tricks.

Although the action is simple, it is extremely useful. It's like there are always a few special cases of assassinated American presidents in the past. Saying that they were assassinated by ordinary people, there is no conspiracy behind it, is it possible? Really think that the US government's security system that concentrates a country's elite forces is free.

Without the involvement of hostile capital, without those rich people buying people's hearts behind the scenes, and even using media and public opinion to clear obstacles, how could things be so simple.

Although Tony is not worried that those capital consortiums will use this trick, because he still has the name of a superhero anyway. But that doesn't mean he doesn't take the issue lightly. His danger does not need to be considered, but those important figures in the Stark government have to worry about it. In this government department that has been streamlined to the limit, the casualty of any key person may trigger a series of impacts. This is definitely not what Tony wants to see.

Thankfully, though, their safety doesn't require Tony to think too much about it. Because these high-levels themselves are not simple things. The occupations they were originally engaged in were all extremely dangerous occupations, which made them not only have a keen awareness of danger, but also have the ability to deal with most dangers. It is not that simple for those capital consortiums to use those dirty means to deal with them. Even if they say something carelessly, they might get off the hook. So Tony wasn't too worried about that.

In contrast, he was more worried about the conventional means that those consortiums would use.

The easiest way for capital to fight the government is to mobilize the people. Because they have inherent advantages over the government in terms of relationships, they can easily convey their ideas to the brains of the people. They can easily do these things by taking advantage of the spread of media and public opinion, and taking advantage of their own and the public's position at work.

You know, there will always be an anti-government sentiment in the hearts of the people. In many countries, government speech can be questioned by the people. Compared with the speeches released by the government, the vast majority of people are more willing to believe the reports in the media, or even gossip from people around them. They don't care whether these reports and news are carefully researched or whether it took five minutes to make up a joke. For them, as long as the news is against the government, it is worth watching.

This is a headache for all governments. Sometimes in order to ensure that those guys who are brainwashed by conspiracy theories don't pour too much dirty water on their heads,

They have to invest a lot of manpower and material resources in the media to do public relations. Image engineering is a waste of time and money, but it has to be done. That's a major reason.

On this issue, the United States is definitely the most serious one. The reason for saying this is, on the one hand, because of the historical problems left by the Americans. Those such as the Gulf War, Agent Orange children in Vietnam, the abuse of civilians in the Middle East, etc., were all extremely buried by the people of the United States. For these things, they have often protested to their own government. Even after many years, there are still people marching to the White House under this banner.

On the other hand, it is because the United States is very deficient in media control.

You must know that in today's society, the power represented by the news media cannot be underestimated. Because anyone who wants to understand what is happening around him and in this society must rely on the power of the news media to do so. The news media is the window in front of all the people. For the government, the news media is their mouthpiece. In order for the people to understand and identify with themselves, the government must use the news media to make its voice heard.

They are so important that any country should keep a dedicated news channel as a bridge of communication between itself and the people. Unfortunately, there is no such channel in the United States.

In the United States, almost all news media are affiliated with those capital enterprises. They are private, so they are only for private purposes in most cases. In this country, you can't see what the government wants you to see. It's what those capitals agree with the government to show you, and you can see what.

The relationship between the government and the media is very awkward, and they often only have the so-called supervisory power. The right to supervise, for the practitioners of the news media, may not be as important as their freedom of the press. So many times, Americans can see their government being ridiculed and ridiculed. There are not one or two people who make fun of the president, but piles of them. The media has no respect for the government. If there is any breaking news in their hands, they will not care about the loss of the government. A big news that attracts traffic is enough for them to put the entire government on the grill. And for this, the U.S. government has nothing to do.

Private property is sacred and inviolable. Under the operation of capitalists, this regulation has long been above the government. Under such a banner, the news media has always been confident. The government almost always has to be ridiculed by them. If you are not willing, or even use some coercive means, then the Uncrowned King will tell you what it means to be unstoppable when the people's anger is called.

This is a deadly question, especially in the present. Tony is very clear that if the news that he is the mastermind behind the scenes is revealed, then those consortiums that control the news media will definitely spare no effort to smear themselves on the news media. In the face of this kind of framing and slander, Tony doesn't think the people can have too much clear understanding.

He knows his people all too well. They lack intelligence and are extremely easily agitated. Sometimes big names in the news media yell and they can immediately cum like they've been stepped on the G-spot. It is simply unrealistic to expect these people to remain rational at that time and have a clear understanding of the government they govern. So Tony knew very well that his next job was to control this mouthpiece.

Not to mention controlling all the media in your own hands, but at least controlling a few key ones to ensure that the direction of public opinion will not be overwhelmingly tilted towards the opposite side. However, it is not easy to achieve this level. Because things like the media obviously belong to the taboo of those capital consortiums.

Under the banner of Osborn, it is easy for him to take over a large heavy industry company like General Electric. Because in the eyes of many people, this is nothing more than a rivalry between the same industry. Osborne and these companies are themselves competitors. Taking advantage of them when they are in a period of decadence to take down each other in one fell swoop is completely understandable. Because the development and growth of any company is actually inseparable from this step. This is an industry phenomenon, and no one can say that there is a problem.

However, if Osborne takes advantage of this time to extend his hand to the news media industry, it will obviously touch the nerves of many people.

Everyone is not an idiot. If a company engaged in high technology and heavy industry suddenly gets involved in industries related to media and entertainment, this itself is problematic. You're not bankrolled enough to reach out that far, especially since you've just made that big move. If you really do this, even if everyone doesn't doubt you at first, I'm afraid they will inevitably have more thoughts on you. And by that time, Osborne would be in danger.

In Tony's plan, Osborne is a very crucial link. So it is absolutely impossible for him to let Osborn do such a dangerous thing. So, who should it be? After thinking and thinking in his mind, Tony finally got an idea. And after having such an idea, he immediately made a private call.

"Mr. Wang, it's me, Tony Stark. I have a business I want to talk to you about!"

On the other end of the private phone is a capital businessman from the country across the ocean. As a businessman, in which country can he climb to the position of the richest man, it is difficult to say that he does not have much connection with the government of his own country. However, Tony didn't care about this connection, so he told him the intention of coming to him very directly.

Faced with these words, the person on the other side was obviously a little surprised. He was surprised by Tony's identity. It was obviously unbelievable for a president of a country to make such a phone call to himself. This made him hesitate, because of his special status, if he had private contact with the other party's senior management without authorization, then there might be unnecessary troubles. In addition to this hesitation, he was still a little excited.

As the richest man, it is impossible for him not to know about the recent big moves in the country. I thought it had nothing to do with me, but now it seems that it may not be the case. He does not lack capital, all he lacks is opportunity. But now, an opportunity was presented to him like this, and it was absolutely impossible for him to turn a blind eye.

So after thinking and thinking, he immediately made up his mind. And this made him take out a respectful enough tone, and smiled at Tony.

"Your Excellency, your call really made me, Mr. Wang, very bright. I don't know what kind of business it is, but can you contact me in person?"

"Mr. Wang, to make a long story short. I know that you have always wanted to invest capital into the American entertainment industry. While completing the transformation, you will open up a second way of making money. It's just that your plan has not been realized due to policy issues. And Now, I can give you this chance, just ask you, do you have the courage!"
