Chapter 1376 Not yet at the Limit
"Those guys in the meeting don't necessarily really have no way out."
Ms. Sloan did not attend the event in person, and she was very disapproving of this meeting in Silicon Valley, "Like the party's popular candidate, the campaign team of Texas Governor George Jr. is also very clear that they have a weak foundation in the Internet industry. The stereotype of the George dynasty is that they lack They have an understanding of the Internet, so they are taking advantage of the stock market crash to speed up the acquisition of Internet tycoons. In his latest speech, George Jr. claimed that he would "let go and leave the professional work to professional people", and planned to form a team composed of Silicon Valley tycoons and top elites. Internet Campaign Countermeasures Team."
"As far as I know, Mark Cuban, the owner of the Dallas Mavericks under his rule, will definitely respond. The chairman and CEO of SUN, McNealy, who had a meeting with you, should have also received the invitation, as well as the bosses of Microsoft, Intel and other companies. "
Sloan said: "Microsoft, as you know, has already invested more money in the Elephant Party than the Donkey Party this year. The monopoly case has reached the Federal Court of Appeal, and they can no longer lose."
"Let go and leave professional things to professional people... Well, this sentence is indeed very tempting to Silicon Valley."
Song Ya nodded. After all, Gore is the leader of the information superhighway. He has a thorough understanding of the Internet industry and has sufficient control over it. Against the background of the stock market crash, this may not be a good thing for the Silicon Valley tycoons. Now the technology industry is looking forward to a favorable The loose fiscal policy and regulatory environment to recover losses, to put it bluntly, it is best to have a hands-off shopkeeper and let everyone manipulate the market.
And Gore has always been tough on Wall Street regulation, otherwise he wouldn’t have turned against tycoons such as Perelman and John Malone...
"What are you going to do about it?" Sloane asked.
"I promised Jim and the others to do what I should do."
Kindness, honesty, no one will offend me, no one will offend me, every spittle is a nail, Song Ya thinks she has these good qualities, at least in getting along with the new money in Silicon Valley and those old money tycoons, as long as you promise good things, Just turn around and do it, even if you suffer a little bit or know that you are suspected of being used as a gun...
In short, try to strive for a win-win situation and make more friends.
The stock market was devastated, and after more than three billion evaporated, his net worth continued to shrink. He suddenly felt confused about the way ahead, and had all kinds of troubles, but when he received the latest task from the "organization", Song Ya returned to Chicago non-stop, and still chose to make an appointment immediately. Meet Peter Flock.
"APLUS, I heard something about your recent situation, what's the matter? Are you in a bad mood?"
The next day, both sides brought a large number of cronies to meet in Peter's Chicago campaign headquarters. When shaking hands, Peter showed sincere concern.
"I've lost too much money lately Peter."
Song Ya showed her sharp edge this time, instead of choosing hello and me, she exchanged a few pleasantries, "If my current mood is likened to a string, then the tension it bears is approaching the limit."
"Haha, I can understand." Peter and the campaign manager Eli and others around him all smiled, very friendly.
His wife, Alicia, and three women, Sloan and Melissa, were talking in low voices not far away. Sloan's assistant, Melissa, was also Eli's daughter.
"Let's chat alone?"
"OK, come with me." Peter said a few words to his wife Alicia, and walked into his office first.
"Peter, you have to withdraw from the election. Silicon Valley is going crazy. I can't guarantee what they will do."
Song Ya heard Peter's closing door and said straight in: "I came to you with a mission, to convey and convey their 'ultimatum' very seriously, as they said, you must withdraw from the election, I repeat once."
"Don't you think this is an opportunity for us?"
Peter didn't answer. He walked behind his desk and took the key to open the drawer.
"Of course, as long as you withdraw from the election, they and Gore should promise you more conditions, but in any case, it must be fast, and April will pass, and everyone needs Gore to devote himself to the election of the Elephant Party as soon as possible. In the war of people, every hidden danger he may encounter in the primary election, mainly referring to you, is not good for the confidence of investors at present."
Song Ya has become more and more disgusted with Peter's insistence, "Otherwise, the New York stock market may encounter a bad chain reaction again. You should know how critical the situation is now Peter. I can't stand it anymore, and I am also very dissatisfied with the current situation .”
"Ultimatum?"
Peter put a smile on his mouth, "They are already arrogant enough to try to threaten a candidate for the Grand Commander? So when is the deadline for the ultimatum?"
"About next Monday before the market opens."
In fact, Jim's offer was five months ago, but Song Ya was afraid of accidents, so he made a discount when sending the message and shortened the deadline.
"Whoa, that's been a few days." Peter took out a large white envelope from a drawer.
Song Ya thought it was another insider information about his shooting case, "Don't be like this Peter, this is not what happened before the two of us, don't make me regret that I supported you back then, you know how much pressure I have endured over there. "
"It's not what you think."
Peter handed over the envelope, "Open it and have a look."
Song Ya took it suspiciously, opened it, and inside the envelope was a speech.
‘Mr. Vice President connived at the formation of the Internet bubble, and he is now trying to use all taxpayers’ money to please the billionaires in Silicon Valley, who have formed a very stubborn community of interests. I know what has happened to the Nasdaq Index recently, and I also know that many ordinary investors who invested in it lost their money, but I still want to say that the responsibility for forming such a serious bubble lies entirely with my opponent, the current deputy commander Al Gore gentlemen……'
Seeing this, Song Ya knew exactly what Peter was going to do, and raised her eyelids to look at Peter's old-school movie star face viciously, "You want our friendship to end?"
"After watching it APLUS." Peter didn't answer directly.
'Deputy General Gore said that he led the construction of the Internet industry, so now he should take full responsibility for the status quo today. Regardless of the ongoing primary election, I still want to call on him to push the regulators to list the Internet as soon as possible. The company's illegal cash out, fake accounts and other illegal activities are investigated. Almost all Internet listed companies are unable to pay any slightly more beautiful financial reports. This phenomenon has continued for several years, but the market value of each company has skyrocketed? It doesn't take a lot of financial knowledge, all of us know that there is definitely a very dirty inside story...'
Peter seems to be determined to continue to exert extreme pressure, and it is the kind that takes advantage of Gore's illness to kill Gore. He said at the end of his speech: "I am looking forward to the face-to-face debate with Deputy Commander Gore in June. We At that time, this issue must be discussed in front of all voters. '
"You crazy peter, do you know how much I lost because you didn't quit? I didn't buy the bank in New Jersey, my stock investment plummeted and whether Daly Jr. or Gore or Silicon Valley blamed me for funding you The meaning of election!"
Song Ya was in a hurry, this guy went crazy and wanted to take him to be buried with him, "I have already achieved my purpose of supporting you. Both Daly and Gore know my energy, but this matter can't be overdone. Playing with fire!"
This was the first time he spoke to Peter so forcefully, and Peter didn't show any anger, maybe because he knew that the man in front of him just lost three billion and was on the verge of blowing up at one point?
"Finished?" Peter asked calmly.
"After reading it, except for you, it is estimated that everyone else will not be happy to see this speech delivered, including me."
Song Ya is very straightforward, if she can't persuade Peter this time, she will really... M-FXXK! "Do you really want to see everyone go crazy with you? It will get out of control by then!"
"I know what's going on, OK?"
Peter took back the speech and the envelope from his hand, repacked it and stuffed it back, "Okay, I'm sober, didn't you come with a mission? APLUS, help me hand over this letter to Mr. Vice President, You must deliver it directly to him face to face."
"SHXT! And then? If I were Al Gore, I would still accept your threats? Don't forget the case on your back, impeachment... They are just inconvenient to take action against the candidates for the general election, and it's not impossible! If it were you, would you still bow your head and make peace in this situation?"
Song Ya cursed and questioned.
"They were having a very candid exchange."
The large glass of the campaign office has shutters, but you can see the two figures reflected. Melissa looked at Song Ya's shadow walking around excitedly, and guessed with a smile.
"How have you been lately?" Sloane asked Alicia.
"It's okay, I'm only doing my job right now, campaigning with him, and working on cases at other times." Alicia asked back: "APLUS's net worth has shrunk seriously?"
"Yes, but...that's it." Sloan shrugged and replied, Alicia was in charge of part of the legal business here, and she knew that the other party had access to some internal documents, "Anyway, he lost money from the stock market, the numbers It's just a game, and it won't go bankrupt anyway."
"Well, your new private jet is beautiful," Alicia said.
"Hehe, it's inconvenient to carry the wife of the Grand Commander candidate now, wait for a while." Sloan covered his mouth with a slightly smug smile.
Alicia rolled her eyes, she was a little worried about the relationship between the two people in the room, because she saw her husband sticking out his finger.
"Don't talk to me like that, APLUS! Don't forget the things you and I did together!"
Peter was finally impatient with the impatient Song Ya. He stretched out his finger and shook the opponent's nose, tearing his face and threatening, "Just finish your task and bring this letter here! Believe me, my enemy hasn't arrived yet limit!"
