America's Road to Wealth

"A rating of more than 200 million viewers? Tsk tsk, that's crazy."

Located on the highest point of a hill overlooking the Hudson River and overlooking the New York City skyline in the Rockefeller estate.

He got sick last month, and David Rockefeller, who looked even older, was sitting on the boss's chair in the study. His skin was pale and piercing, especially his eyes, which were extremely cold and slightly glowing red. , giving people a cold and indifferent feeling, very much like that kind of old vampire who was born in the world.

But this time speaking with him here is no longer John Chris Morgan, the head of Morgan who looks younger than him.

Instead, it was replaced by the future heir of the Rockefeller family, his eldest son Richard David Rockefeller.

"It's really outrageous data. I have someone check it, and it's real data. And the other party doesn't need to lie. But father, what does he think, would he say that in front of the public? Yes, everyone Knowing that the crisis is imminent. But why did he bring it up? Does he want to be everyone's enemy?" Richard frowned slightly and said in a deep voice.

"Hehe... Isn't it very cryptic? People like us know what he wants to say. But the ordinary people who occupy a larger number of people can't hear what he is saying. At most, they think he is saying Just some famous quotes."

David Rockefeller let out a dull sneer, the laughter was full of sarcasm, and said lightly: "Maybe they are young people, they are more or less idealistic. Or they have other purposes, in short, they will not be very simple. "

Then there was a short silence, Richard waited quietly, and soon, David Rockefeller's voice sounded, with consideration in his tone, "What do you think of this guy Abel Smith?"

Richard frowned slightly, and pondered for a while. For Abel Smith, a competitor who rose like a rocket, I believe that not only the Rockefellers felt headaches and troubles.

Other consortium families will also not ignore his rise, and believe that there are a lot of research materials such as various intelligence information collection, psychological profiling of characters and so on.

Just like on Abel's side, Smith Wisdom Company will do similar work for them.

Richard knew that his father knew better than himself what kind of person Abel Smith was.

Because my father has confronted each other many times, and almost every time he suffers...

Although this was the first time his father asked this question, Richard was prepared.

"A difficult opponent!" Richard Rockefeller expressed his opinion and evaluation of Abel Smith after preparing for a long time.

"A super big trouble. No matter how you look at it, he is a big trouble, or he is the trouble itself. According to all the data, whether he is his opponent or an ally, he is a big trouble."

"He is a faithful believer in the supremacy of interests. His thirst and greed for interests and money allow him to use unscrupulous means. I even doubt that as long as he is profitable, he can become unlimited."

"The most important thing is that there are too many contradictions and uncertainties in him. Looking at the path of his fortune, it seems that there are traces to follow, but there are many places that reveal a little bit of weirdness, giving people an incredible feeling. Feel."

"The kind of talent that is unparalleled in financial and capital operations, as if like a prophet, really makes people doubt that he is God's favorite."

"Once or twice can be said to be lucky, but too many unbelievable, one has to suspect that it is not luck at all, but that he does have superpowers in this area..."

"Other aspects are still within the range of normal people. The problem happens to be abnormal, and we have no good way to deal with it at all."

Richard's response was well-founded and very calm, and he seemed to know that he had been preparing for a long time.

No way, Abe Smith is too dazzling. He is the young man who has overwhelmed the entire world since entering the new century. Now, he can even be said to be a legend that overwhelms the entire era. After all, he is too young!

Especially the second and third generations of Richard and the others felt a lot of pressure on Abel... He alone made all the young people in the entire American wealthy circle become wastes that were not wastes.

Because no matter how good or outstanding the second and third generations are, they are really no different from trash in front of him.

Richard is the same age as John Chris, but his father never retires. Richard's ability is not bad, at least he is sure to take over the power smoothly.

But Richard knew very well that the combination of an old fox like his father and someone already in power like John Chris couldn't really deal with Abel Smith.

Let alone let him come.

"Hehe..." Hearing his son's analysis, Old Rockefeller laughed dryly like an old fox, looked at his son and said:

"Richard, there is no need to doubt. Some people can really be called God's favorite. Their common feature is that many impossible things have become possible for them, as if with the help of God, this kind of God Beloved, every era has one, or even more than one.”

"For this kind of God's darling, the best way is to do everything possible to win them over, control them, and turn them into our tools to serve us. The only thing we didn't do was face Abel Smith. The good thing is that it’s too late to win over and control.”

Having said that, Old Rockefeller himself couldn't help sighing.

He suddenly thought that maybe it wasn't that he waited for someone to take action too late, but that guy was too cunning.

For a long time, this guy wasn't as arrogant as he is now.

Even in the beginning, the guy was very, very low key and didn't even socialize in the upper circles in New York!

And he is also a Texan who makes the east coast feel tricky, and he is very smart to be closely integrated with the Texas faction such as the bush...

By the time they started to look at this guy seriously, he had already swelled to the point where they couldn't do anything.

David realized something, maybe this was actually the guy's plan.

In the early stage, he forbears and keeps a low profile, but in the mid-term, he goes around colluding with allies. Only when his wings were thick and strong, did he reveal his fangs...

If that's the case, then he's terrible too.

Shaking his head slightly, Rockefeller didn't think about these things that would destroy his prestige.

"Richard, what do you know about his weaknesses?"

"Extremely lustful and insecure." Richard, who didn't know what his father was thinking about just now, quickly replied.

These are actually Rockefeller's analysis of Abel Smith's psychological profile report. Richard picked out the most important part of it and responded to his father in a concise and concise manner.

"Lust is almost a common problem of all normal men. Do you still remember how we dealt with William Henry Gates III and Steve Jobs who were also extremely lustful?"

Old Rockefeller had a weird smile on his face.

"Remember, do what they like, provide opportunities and resources, connive, encourage them to cross the line, let them indulge in it, and use it as a bomb that can destroy their reputation at any time..." Richard said with a frown.

In fact, they have not only used these tricks on the founders of Microsoft and Apple.

They have used similar methods on the founders and controllers of cutting-edge companies such as Oracle and Cisco.

Almost all of them succeeded, and finally they were able to eat the fattest flesh and blood from these enterprises.

Otherwise, do you think that a bubble as big as Nasdaq can be inflated by ordinary investors and foreign investors?

It's not the people like them who are behind it.

"However, Dad, these tricks won't work against Abe Smith because he's too cautious. His security company is doing more outrageously than CLA and FlA. They all use Texans, It’s hard for us to infiltrate.”

"In addition, this guy, except for a few famous ladies, seems to only favor female stars and female models, and has little interest in ordinary women. And Hollywood female stars, to him now, are almost all goldfish raised in a pond, and he can get whatever he wants , There is no way to lure him from this aspect.”

"I said he is a trouble, and here is the trouble. He knows what his weakness is, so he has been letting his good, sexual, and sexual side subtly let the public understand and acquiesce. Of."

"I think that in a few years, no matter how much his scandal is reported in the newspapers, the public will only look at these reports with admiration and an attitude that I already know..."

"And more importantly..."

When he was talking about this, Richard paused, glanced at his father, and continued after seeing that he had nothing to say, "He seems to have a weapon against us in this regard. At this level, we are equal to him of."

This is to imply that the other party has already existed on an equal footing with his own family in this respect.

If the attack is aimed at Abel's "weakness", it will easily attract a peer-to-peer attack from the other party.

It's almost a direct battle, and everyone finishes playing together.

These weaknesses can be used as weaknesses, which can only be used before Abel has grown up.

For example, the period before 2001, when Abe Smith was still very weak.

The problem is that everyone at that time didn't expect that this little Dixie, who didn't like socializing, would grow up to what he is now in a few years.

After listening to this, especially the part that his son emphasized at the end, the old Rockefeller shook his head and laughed: "I know what you want to say, another Howard Hughes..."

After sighing with emotion, old Rockefeller had a sly look in his red eyes, and a bright smile appeared on his slack old face, and he said to his son:

"Since you have a thorough understanding of him. Then, let me tell you what we should do."

"I've actually been doing it since realizing this guy is God's favorite two years ago."

"First of all, let's not oppose him. God's favorite is unsolvable, and it is irrational to confront him. Up to Genghis Khan and Master Luo, down to Howard Hughes, and now Abel Smith, they all It's the same kind of people."

"Now let me tell you, in the past two years, I have been fully infiltrating and investing in its industry. His media companies and the Internet companies he values ​​all have our investment. As long as he is interested and has If there is a financing opening, we will invest money in it. We will also send some talents to infiltrate his company and help these companies succeed.”

"I'm getting old. The John Chris guy was misled by me two years ago, and I had conflicts with him many times. Now this guy has come to his senses, and he's doing the same thing as us starting this year."

"Richard, I'm not sure how long I'll live. After my death, this is your task. I ask you, from now on, to find a way to establish a friendship with him. He is like a man in the dark night and deep sea. You have to learn to make good use of this kind of people, don't confront them, but win them over."

"They may be able to overwhelm an era, but no matter how great people are, they will grow old. They can overwhelm an era, but their descendants may not be able to do it. When the time comes, our descendants will be able to take advantage of what we have buried now. the seeds, and take the ripe fruit!"

"It's like we were almost killed by Roosevelt back then. What about now? Now that Master Luo is in New York, their lair, we all have to hide."

"Especially..." Thinking of Abel's extreme absurdity in some aspects, David originally wanted to talk about it.

But he suddenly realized that he was not much better in this matter.

Although the number is not comparable to Abel, it is too much compared to normal people.

This topic is not appropriate to bring up in front of my son.

Old Rockefeller even suspected that his son would not necessarily target his illegitimate children severely after his death.

In this regard, I and Abel, the eldest brother should not laugh at the second brother.

David kept his mouth shut.

"Okay, Dad, I know what to do..." Richard nodded and said after waiting for a few minutes to make sure his father hadn't spoken.

For their centuries-old consortium, they have enough patience to plan and wait. The Rockefeller family has now penetrated into almost every corner of the world, not only through barbaric plunder, but also through many other means , and thus have today's legendary Rockefeller family.

And this is almost the tried and tested, or the last trump card of their century-old consortium.

If even this trick doesn't work, there is only one last way left - go to war!

But that was the method Rockefeller and the others dared not use, and the last thing they wanted to do.

Because if there is a real war, if they win, they will still sit on the throne, and their status will not change much.

In case of losing... The former DuPont and Master Luo families are the best examples.

As a last resort, there is no way out.

Whether it is Morgan or their Rockefellers, no one will choose this option.
