Chapter 860: Facing the Line

Barn Sr. ......

He seems to have completely gotten rid of Bath Chemical and went to the world, and then ...... Pension? Anyway, he basically disappeared into the rich social circle in Chicago since then, and he has never intersected with himself again.

But he must be as resentful of that business as Edward, right? After all, a business that was originally mired in the quagmire and was about to bankrupt him and Edward was brought back to life immediately after being transferred to his own hands.

Edward is a little better, the outside world does not know much about the role played by the Wall Street investor in the Bath Chemical case, the old Barn is more miserable, Bath Chemical is his family's business, and after the 100 million deal with Dow was exposed, the financial media praised himself for turning corruption into magic, and often used him as a negative example.

Old Barn, who is portrayed by the media as mediocre, conservative, short-sighted, and completely unsuitable for the trend of the times, will he not hate himself at all?

If Danburton can get the testimony of Edward and many engineers of Bath Chemical, it is impossible not to go to Barn Sr., the fluorescent agent factory was established by Barn Sr., and there is cooperation with the military, and the elephant party has great energy in the military.

Perhaps Danburton still had in his hands a copy of Barnes Sr.'s testimony, or even the military's ......

"Of course, in terms of the theme of this hearing, the telecommunications industry, especially the network industry, is the future, and I personally admire Negroponte's series of columns published in Wired magazine, and humanity will definitely enter the digital age of existence, which means that we need higher network bandwidth and information transmission speed. The amount of money and materials required for the related basic investment is sky-high, and only large companies can complete it......"

"For example, Comcast's large-scale wired broadband network construction, such as Motorola's Iridium program, I heard that they will test launch their first satellite this year? For this part alone, I support the telecommunications bill, these things can only be done by large companies, the bigger the better, and the state even needs to help them as necessary. ”

After all, the break was only ten minutes, and the Elephant Party MP who temporarily mentioned Old Barn should not have much information, Song Ya easily fooled the past, and the next MP brought the topic back to the telecommunications bill.

In the familiar field, Song Ya finally had time to read the manuscript while urgently weighing the sudden danger, damn it! It occurred to him that not long ago, it had just been hinted that Ballard, the president of 3DFX, would include Huaguo Lanoff's QDI branch in the list of cooperative manufacturers, and directly ordered Chicago Fire head coach Bob Bradley to actively introduce Hao Cannon, and the Blade Warrior project also planned to use Xiangjiang director Stanley Tang......

After the hearing, Damberton's treason accusations and the news broke at the same time...... Then the fun is great, am I floating or is it floating?

Yes, I floated.

Fortunately, these things should not be clear to the outside world, at least the media in the United States has no reaction for the time being, and it should not be too late to make amends.

"Part of my concern is the living conditions of minority media, and the government must also prepare for it, and I call on Congress to ...... it."

After filming the sycophants of large companies such as Comcast and Motorola, he changed his words and called out for the small and medium-sized media again, and he would have perfectly completed the first congressional hearing in his life after going through the motions, but ......

Danburton had been in his seat in protest with body language and facial expressions, occasionally interjecting, and applying for another question, but Nancy Patricia could not ignore it any longer, and gave him back the right to question.

Song Ya immediately cheered up the spirit.

"Mr. Jordan Belfort, do you admit to secretly shipping the illegal batches to Switzerland, and that the Swiss bank account number is in the name of your wife and aunt, right?"

What is particularly annoying is that the apocalypse is still trick-or-treating at this important moment, Song Ya only saw Damberton's mouth moving, but a movie clip appeared in his ears and mind, it was still Xiao Lizi, the new Huaer Street-themed movie that had an apocalypse.

Xiao Lizi was also questioned at a hearing like himself, and he was called 'Jordan Belfort' by the lawmakers? Isn't that the king of Wall Street junk stocks that I met at the Netscape IPO celebration dinner? The first apocalypse of this movie was probably also obtained at that celebration dinner, right? Will he break later? Xiao Lizi plays him, he must be the protagonist, right? A biographical film like a cat-and-mouse game?

The brain was spinning fast, dizzy, Song Ya rubbed his eyebrows fiercely to feel better, and when he returned to reality, Danburton had already sneered and stared at himself, and heard the tail of some laughter on the spot.

"Mr. Song, are you going to refuse to answer my question? It's not okay to play stupid, unless you invoke the Fifth Amendment, and then I'm going to apply to a hearing committee to rule that you have contempt of Congress. Damberton said viciously.

"Uh, I'm sorry, Mr. Councillor, what were you talking about?"

Hamlin strictly forbade himself to cite the Fifth Amendment, and of course Song Ya would not fall for Danburton, but the other party's question just now was really not heard clearly under the interference of the apocalypse, so he had to ask it again.

The reporters and the audience laughed again, and the two black caucus members on the podium, as well as Linda next to her, also bowed their heads and snickered.

It seems that everyone misunderstands that he is giving Danburton a face? It's okay, Dan Burton was immediately enraged by his own reaction and that of others, "Councillor Patricia, he despised Congress and humiliated Congressman!" ”

"I'm sorry, I sincerely apologize to you, Councillor Burton, Sir......"

Nancy Patricia's reaction was unpredictable, Song Ya hurriedly crisis public relations, put her mouth close to the microphone, and said sincerely: "I really didn't hear clearly, there is no lie, your question just now is a little difficult to understand." ”

"Hahaha......" The PBS videographer laughed, and he instantly hid his body behind the large, bulky camera, which is also a skill exclusive to this class.

Danburton took a deep breath, "Okay, I'll ask again, your business, I mean your two companies, A+ clothing and A+ wine, the production base is also located in Huaguo, right?" You've given them a lot of jobs, thousands of jobs that have been lost from the country...... What's so hard to understand about this? You just have to answer yes or no. ”

"Yes, Mr. Councillor."

Song Ya replied: "But these jobs have long been out of our possession, the textile industry has long been transferred to developing countries, wine, and now we import a large number of European ......."

How could Dan Burton let him finish speaking, interrupting the statement and asking, "But you are all in Huaguo." ”

"This ......"

Song Ya keenly sensed that this was an opportunity, and sat up straighter, "I'm not the only one doing this, those big companies, such as ......"

"Ahem." Ms. Sloan coughed wildly behind her back.

Yes, Pierre Sutton just reminded you that don't foul if you break the law, and now biting out these giants like Walmart may be refreshing for a while, but it's not necessarily a good thing," for example...... I'm not going to give you an example, maybe there's your funder, Congressman Burton. ”

"Don't always change the subject!"

"Okay, I'll be blunt, I'm a singer and a businessman, where I set up the factory is definitely based on commercial interests, I want to make money, and I can give a hundred examples of the same choice as me......"

Song Ya began to fight back, "And I keep most of my profits and taxes in the United States, and I can even guarantee that I am doing better than many large companies with great reputations." Can you ...... Congress could investigate the financial statements of the two companies. A+ Apparel buys a lot of agricultural products from the United States every year, and bulk agricultural products, such as cotton, are in California and Arizona, and local cotton farmers and legislators won't like your complaints, Congressman Burton. ”

Burton flipped through the file quickly, "OK, then let's turn the conversation back to Barn." ”

Song Ya spread out her hands and made a helpless grimace.

The scene was buzzing and laughing again.

"Be mindful of your demeanor, APLUS." Nancy Patricia warns.

"I apologize, Councillor Patricia." Song Ya immediately behaved.

"You refuse to admit that you directly ordered the then general manager of the Barn fluorescent agent factory to transfer the information to Huaguo, right?" Danburton asked, annoyed.

"I have made it clear before that I would never do this on the basis of subjectivity, but given that I have no impression of the matter at all, I cannot give you a definite answer, Mr. Parliamentarian, I would have thought it was a hearing on the Telecommunications Bill."

"It would have been ridiculous to have a potential traitor present at this hearing, which is a sacred place for legislation." Dan Burton said.

"I'm representing Inner City Broadcasting, a small and medium-sized media conglomerate of African Americans, and we don't have any business outside of the country." Song Ya fired back again: "I don't think I deserve to be on this occasion unless you don't like it, Councillor Burton." ”

"Are you suggesting that I am persecuted!?"

"Of course not, Sir."

"Here's another testimony from a former Barn negotiator......"

Rather than facing the line head-on, Danburton began to talk to himself and kept showing reporters new documentary evidence, "There are some other important testimonies that I can't make public for the time being because of the need to keep them confidential." But I will later present all the evidence to the Judicial Committee and the Foreign Affairs Committee, which I believe will be enough to prompt Congress to launch an independent investigation......"

Song Ya had no choice but to squeeze out a wry smile at the camera and everyone present, and watch him perform to his heart's content, until Nancy Patricia announced that his questioning time was over.
