f forced the headquarters building.
In order to achieve his own goals, Director Hoover did not hesitate to resort to the most insidious tricks, trying to disgust Alex from the perspective of public opinion.
With Hoover's connections and influence, it was easy to push the media to report, which really set off a monstrous wave at that time.
But what I didn't expect was that the other party would dissolve it in three clicks and two clicks, and now the news media has not reported the Brigitte scandal at all, and people no longer care about this kind of news.
Not only did Alex not give in to his call, but even his revenge plan fell through.
As a powerful and narrow-minded Hoover, how could he bear this breath. In particular, his repeated errors in predicting Alex's behavior made him very embarrassed in front of Tolsson. In addition, the Carpenter family has now initially stabilized and broken through the siege under the leadership of Alex, which makes him feel that things are a little out of control.
Hoover made repeated mistakes in Alex, not that he couldn't see people accurately, but that Alex's ability was too strong, and he could successfully fight back even in the face of an absolute disadvantage.
Since ABC TV launched the "American Idol" program, the encirclement between Disney and NBC TV has naturally been self-defeating, and the large number of ABC TV employees they poached did not let the TV station be severely hit, but because it vacated a lot of positions, the remaining employees and new employees have a very strong fighting spirit.
Today, ABC's ratings are snowballing, and the morale of the employees is further boosted.
Seeing that ABC TV is about to grow into one of the three major TV stations in the United States. How could these employees drop their chains at such a time? In the face of such a situation, not to mention Disney and NBC TV, even other TV stations dare not stand in the way of ABC TV.
As for Walt? Disney still has any tricks to come out, then it can only depend on what happens next. But in this case, everyone else thinks they are gone.
Carpenter Records has also received a large number of rookies because of this talent show, and with the addition of fresh blood, its position in the record market has been further consolidated.
Not to mention the recent release of the Carpenter siblings, which has killed other record companies, and any record released at the same time as them, no matter how famous they were. All of them have been hit by a great deal of impact. There is a certain amount of record market, and when the Carpenter sibling group swept through, the record sales of other companies were naturally not very ideal.
With the exception of the record company, which is the strongest high ground for the Carpenter family, the film company has not suffered much.
The only loss may be the loss of the opportunity to acquire Paramount. For such an accident. Neither Alex nor Morris expected it. But they just regretted it for a while, and they didn't care about it.
Now Morris is busy filming the Anthropomorphic series of films, taking advantage of the success of the first two blockbusters. The third installment, Escape from the Planet of the Apes, was also a huge success. The successful release of this film has further expanded the ranks of ape fans, and more and more people are hooked on this series of movies.
DreamWorks' successes have given Hollywood studios a new way out, which is to invest huge sums of money to shoot high-quality films. In this way, they will be able to survive in the market and attract audiences with increasing tastes to the cinema.
All in all, in the entertainment industry, the Carpenter family's territory is as stable as Mount Tai, and no one can challenge their position for the time being.
As for the market for rockets and satellites, no one can move SNETSASA is also completely in SNETSASA, and the leadership positions of various key departments are all from SNETSBSP; Nominally, NASA is the overall coordinator of all rocket and satellite research institutions in the United States, but in fact, this big piece of fat has been swallowed by the SCC company. The other small fish and shrimp who followed behind the SCC company could only drink some soup at most.
With the Hughes Group as a backer, Alex doesn't have to worry about what problems the SCC company has. Coupled with von Bryan's ability, he has a lot of resources in his hands, which has made the United States improve a lot in aerospace technology.
Now the United States and the Soviet Union are competing with each other, and they have taken the lead in rocket satellites, and the Soviet Union has been pressing the United States in the early days. In this regard, von Bryan was greatly influenced by Alex to be able to do this.
As for computers, IBM has been around since it was acquired by Seymour? After Clay was stunned, he never reacted. Their IBM DS system has become a chicken rib, and while it is actually the fastest computer in the world, CPT's computers are able to achieve faster and better computing at a fraction of the cost.
In the area of electronic products, CPT is at a disadvantage for the time being, but this is not a big deal. Now CPT has begun to upgrade the old products, and under the pressure of General Motors, it will take back the lost market little by little.
It was a surprise that the airlines, as Pan Am cut prices, took away many of the customers of the airline. However, at Alex's insistence, TWA did not follow the price reduction, but fought for the quality of service.
No matter how powerful Pan Am is, there is no way to kill Trans Am in one fell swoop. This gave them a chance to breathe, and although they were operating at a loss every day at first, they soon saw that the customers they had lost were coming back.
It turned out that Pan Am tickets were too cheap, because every flight was jammed, and it was difficult to buy the right ticket, often requiring days of waiting.
In addition, due to the large number of people, the service of the flight attendant is not in place, and sometimes there are too many people and they are angry with customers, so that many customers who are not short of money feel very bad, so they all run back to take the plane of Global Airlines.
As for the side of Global Airlines, it is different, there are vacant seats every day, and the service attitude of the flight attendants is also in place, and soon many people are now enjoying the flight of Global Airlines. Especially when there are not many people on a plane, it feels like sitting in first class.
Gradually, the empty load rate of the planes on the side of Global Airlines has dropped a lot, and you can make a little money by flying back and forth every day. Instead of going on losing money all the time. In this way, Pan Am's strategy was declared a failure, and they tried to seize the market through guò, which was ineffective in less than a month.
What happened next was even more stunning, when Pan Am abandoned its low-cost ticket strategy, they soon saw that their market share was declining, and it had fallen to the level before the price cut.
This made the people of Pan Am puzzled, and they couldn't understand why the price would be reduced for a period of time and then come back, which would lead to the loss of the original users.
As for the CEOs of Global Airlines, it was also very strange to see this happen, but they admired Alex's "foresight" ability even more.
All kinds of situations have been solved by Alex one by one, and Director Hoover naturally can no longer sit idly by.
He's going to make a big move.
"Is Agent Smith still out on duty?" Hoover asked suddenly.
"Yes, he went to Mexico......"
Agent Smith is the expressionless agent he had met with Alex a few times. It is said that his strength is unfathomable, he is a first-class master among the F-force agents, and he is also the person that Director Hoover likes to use.
This Smith Engineer is able to carry out the tasks above without any mistakes. Coupled with his expressionless face and ruthless behavior to the extreme, many people mistakenly think that he is a so-called machine and only knows how to obey orders from above.
"Went to Mexico? Could it be that the archaeological couple has been found? ”
"Yes, they were seen at the Mexican border, and Smith ...... in order to catch up with them" Tolsson, as the deputy director of the F-force, knows more about such subtle things, after all, he is Hoover's right-hand man.
When Hoover heard the news, he had a hint of foreboding. These high-ranking agents have their own long-term missions, and they are usually things that they can't complete for a while and have to do. And Agent Smith's task is even more special, he has to do everything possible to find the legend of the archaeological world, but unfortunately it has not been successful.
"Is it possible that what you are speculating about is true?" Hoover asked.
"It's not clear, after all, the couple had been lost a long time ago, and even the Freemasons didn't know exactly where they were. As for their relationship with the Carpenter family...... It's hard to say. ”
Hoover shook his head at Tolson's answer, and he tossed the question aside. Even if there is any relationship, it will not be known until the couple is found. He felt that it was better to solve the matter in front of him first.
Sage's Legacy!
Yes, Hoover may not have been a target in the first place, and he wasn't sure that Alex would actually be able to get the key from the manuscript. But things changed, and Hoover needed to get the weapons inside the estate to counter the pressure from all sides.
Originally, he had the idea of muddying the waters, wanting to attract the attention of Freemasonry, Illuminati and other organizations, and let Alex bear the pressure from above.
But what I didn't expect was that not only Alex did not fall into the trap, but even the Freemasons and the Illuminati were silent. Except for a member of the Carpenter family who did it privately, there was no other movement at all.
In this case, the more Hoover thought about it, the more worried he became, for fear that he would soon become an outcast from above. (To be continued......)
