Chapter 378: Attitude

"What? Have you decided? Virginia looked at Parks, then nodded, "Well, now that you've made your decision, I'll support you and do my best to do that." I can't believe www.biquge.info you'd give up your position as mayor of New York City to run for vice president. And not the president! ”

Parks was sitting in the garden of the villa, talking to Virginia, but his topic did startle Virginia. Although Virginia knew that Parks had achieved good political results after becoming mayor of New York, and that Wall Street had avoided a financial storm, and that since then, innovation has been strongly encouraged, and e-Labs has continued to launch new products. In 1966, the microprocessor chip based on the inheritance module was introduced, and in 1967, the first personal computer using the e-core was introduced. This is 6 years ahead of that era in the previous life. And this advance time is based on the design ideas proposed by Parks, and the results of the e-laboratory after the vigorous allocation of funds, in the case of abundant funds and the right research direction, the early advent of personal computers is not a difficult thing.

Because of this, a myth of technology stocks was once created on Wall Street! The stock of Company E has risen in recent years, and the shares of Company E, including security companies and laboratories, have achieved good results, increasing more than ten times. And the outside world also continues to be optimistic, especially with the E security company in the Vietnam battlefield has also achieved good success, in the US military casualties are generally heavy, and began to suffer repeated setbacks, the E security company personnel with their more sophisticated equipment and more professional and more adapted to the rainforest combat methods, not only casualties are lighter, but also continue to raid the Vietnamese army's strongholds, reconnaissance intelligence, and continue to achieve success.

The most improved version of the PV50 assault rifle developed by Gray Company for the staff of E Security Company is more suitable for the local environment, which makes many American soldiers envious of their equipment, and their individual equipment is also extremely suitable for jungle warfare, including radio communications, night vision devices, etc., which are fully ahead of the current US military equipment.

The high-tech equipment of Company E's security personnel has finally attracted the attention of the U.S. military, and they have begun to contact Company E and have offered to buy the weapons they produce. The U.S. Department of Defense submitted the procurement bill to Parliament, and it was General Taylor, General Hiss and General Langer who pushed the proposal. And these people are all very close to Parks, one is his old superior and friend, and the rest is he rescued from the Asian concentration camps, and they also have a deep friendship.

Now that the situation is good, Parks is going to run for a vice president with no real power, and he will cover up his glory under the president alone, which makes Virginia a little puzzled. Of course, Parks didn't explain it to her, because he knew that if history was true, Richard? President Nixon will be elected president in 1969, and he will also break out in 1972 Watergate and resign in 1974, and what Parks wants to do is to become vice president in the 1972 presidential election, and then after President Nixon resigns, he will smoothly take over the presidency, which will be a rare example of the United States becoming president as a free man rather than as the spokesman of a political party. Of course, all this needs to be well prepared. The same is true of the war against Vietnam.

"Of course, dear! I'm serious! "But not now, I'm going to run for vice president in 1972, and if I run for president, I'm not going to be a match for those parties." Parks laughed, then stood up and kissed Virginia lightly on the forehead.

There was the sound of children's laughter in the house, and the three children ran out of the house, the eldest of the three children was already 12 years old, a girl, and the young age had been as beautiful and elegant as a hibiscus out of the water, just like a little princess in a fairy tale, pure and distressing. The second is a boy, 8 years old, and the youngest is only 4 years old, a little girl, who is the favorite of her sister and brother. Three children always fill the room with laughter.

"Dad, what are you talking about?" The eldest daughter, Jenna, trotted over to the two of them, and she said to Parks, "Dad, Oliver is flipping through your photo album again, and he always wants to see those old photos!" I've told him not to move, but he just won't listen to me, you don't always let him do this! ”

"Well, my sweet little princess!" Parks stood up, then kissed Virginia, and was led by the hand by his daughter towards his own study. Virginia shook her head and smiled behind his back, Parks doted on the child too much.

Parks's study is not very large, but it is very exquisite, a little blonde boy is lying on the desk, looking at Parks's photo album seriously, he is kneeling on the leather chair, straightening up, and concentrated, people can't help but feel fond of this little guy. Jenna was about to yell at him, but Parks quietly raised a finger to her lips and smiled behind the little boy with a smile and ignored Jenna's pursed mouth.

The little boy was licking his fingers, one hand supporting his chin, then licking his fingers, and the other hand began to flip through the album, apparently lingering on each Parks photograph for a long time.

"Oliver!" Jenna waited for a while, and finally couldn't help but scream, she pouted dissatisfiedly at the smiling Parks, "It's up to you, Dad, you have to keep Oliver in order, or my personal belongings will become the target of his rummaging!" Saying that, he looked like he had succeeded in his plan, and walked out triumphantly.

"Dad, I didn't mean to flip it, but it always attracted me, so I couldn't help but come and look at it. But Dad, you look so handsome in a military uniform! Oliver looked at Parks, innocently.

"Well, son, why do you like this album?" Parks looked at Oliver, smiled and hugged him down, then crouched in front of him, looked at him very seriously and asked.

"I want to be a general, Dad, just like you!" Oliver was not ambiguous at all, he casually took down the album, pointed to a picture of Parks in a colonel's uniform, and said, "It's like this!" ”

"No, son, that's just a colonel's uniform, not a general. Of course, if you want to be a general, that's a good idea! Parks smiled, then took a military cap from the cloakroom in the study and put it on Oliver's little head, covering most of it.

Oliver lifted his hat upward, then smiled and straightened up proudly in front of Parks. Parks gave him a military salute and said, "Hello, General! ”

Oliver also returned a military salute to Parks at this time, although it still seemed very non-regular, but he was already learning to behave, like a serious soldier about to charge. This made Parks smile again, to be honest, his son likes soldiers, this may be influenced by himself, his son really wants to embark on the road of joining the army in the future, he can't do it, he will only support him, not oppose him. He didn't have the dream of becoming a general, and it may be a very good choice to hand it over to his son to complete.

And just as Parks was enjoying his family, the Vietnam War once again made the U.S. military feel more and more like they were stuck in a quagmire. Moreover, various anti-war voices have gradually occupied the mainstream media and become mainstream voices. And Parks is clearly having achieved his goal in Vietnam, and he will not let the E Security Company also fall into this quagmire with the US military.

In the spring of 1969, Parks gave a speech at West Point, in which he laid out the principles of the e-Security Company and pledged on the spot to withdraw from the Vietnam War. Yes, his purpose is to show the E Lab and the Gray family of various new weapons through the Vietnam War, and promote the proposal, let the U.S. military purchase weapons, now this purpose has been achieved, General Taylor's proposal was passed in the House, and the PV50 improved assault rifle has become the U.S. military's conventional standard weapon, and some new equipment is gradually being accepted by the U.S. military, and is negotiating with Gray Company.

After such news was released, the stock of the Gray family and the stock of Parkes E Company rushed to the high point again, Parkes's worth more than doubled again, and his marriage with the Gray family has become the most classic marriage case in the United States, so much so that it has been imitated by those families and wealthy families.

"Mr. Parks, you are saying that you are going to withdraw the personnel of the E Security Company from Vietnam, and as far as I know, the fighters of the E Security Company performed very well in the Vietnam War, does that mean that you would have predicted that the United States would lose this war, or that you have become an opponent of this American policy?" A reporter asked a very tricky question at a press conference after Parks' speech.

"I used to be a soldier, and I know that war is generally a last resort, and everyone who has experienced war has painful memories for a lifetime. The security guards went for the peace of Vietnam, but now that this mission seems to be far away, and any more participation in it will only be a painful memory of the war, and there will be no fruits of peace, and I think the best way is to let them go home. It's not about the position of the political axe! ”

This answer is more pertinent, but there is still a reporter who doesn't want to let go of this opportunity to ask a difficult question, and another reporter also stood up and said: "Mr. Parks, I heard that you are in the arms business with the US military political axe, and the order is likely to be the advanced weapons equipped by your E security personnel, is your purpose to verify the power of the new weapon, and then let the political axe procure?" ”

Parks looked at the reporter and suddenly smiled, "Of course, I agree with you. I've really benefited from that. But what I want to say is that if I participated in it, it was at the invitation of the political axe, and not at my own initiative, of course, this also brought me benefits, I think my stock has never been so high, of course, if you are interested, I suggest you buy some too! ”

Immediately, everyone around laughed. Parks easily dispels the reporters' troubles, and the atmosphere becomes harmonious. And Parkes's speech and press conference let the outside world know that Parkes conveyed a meaning, that he is now not hopeful about the Vietnam War, and he is not very optimistic about this war.

Americans all remembered that Parks' predictions of war would be very accurate every time, and I don't know if this time it will be an exception!
