Chapter 122: Weng Son-in-law is in deep love
Howard's kid is so hated, but the more he lives, the more nourishing he becomes, on what basis?
Conrad, of course, knew that.
"The Bell folks went to Stark today, and I think they're definitely working on the new phone right now."
The main reason why guys like old Osborne and Rockson hate Howard, but they dare not offend him, is here.
Because that guy is really a genius!
Genius is not terrible, but a genius still has money, and by the way, if there are people, then no matter who it is, it must be taboo for three points!
Howard has brains, money, and power, not to mention S.H.I.E.L.D., which is still hidden in the shadows, he has an inextricable network of interpersonal relationships with governments and the U.S. military.
It was all a fateful friendship established during World War II, which was very different from the network of relationships that Conrad had woven with money in recent years.
"You know very well that guy Howard's mind, and you also know the strength of Bell Company, if the two of them are combined, what chance do you still have?" Lyndon asked anxiously.
"I don't have it, if I face it alone, I'm 100% sure, but if the two of them really cooperate completely, I don't have any strength to fight back at all." Conrad said with a smile.
Bell has been the communications overlord for so many years, and its assets are so strong that it explodes, and the Stark Group is now like a Taishan Beidou-like existence, the two of them have joined forces, coupled with Howard's brain, Conrad's fruit company is simply vulnerable.
After all, as long as the other party is willing to calm down and study, he can definitely develop a mobile phone that is much better than that of Big Brother.
Although he has all kinds of other mobile phones and the promotion of smart phones in his head, in this era when the microprocessor has not even been invented, it is simply nonsense to think about a smart phone.
"You ......" Originally, Lynden was still confidently waiting for Conrad to guide the country, but he was almost vomited blood by his words.
You can't beat it at all, why don't you quickly admit what you're thinking?
"But father-in-law, do you think that with Howard's temper and the urine nature of the Bell Company, they can really cooperate fully?" Seeing that Linden's face was very bad, Conrad didn't bother to sell it, and explained directly.
"I hurt Howard's face, and at the same time robbed the interests of Bell, but they are first and foremost a businessman, and even if they join forces, they will never really work together."
"What Howard wants now is face, and Bell will never want to lure his dragon into the communications industry, so even if the two of them seem to have a common enemy, they will not actually reach a cooperation!"
In the final analysis, it is Conrad's strength that is not good, even if it seems that his mobile phone business is now in full swing, but in fact Bell has not suffered much.
After all, most people are still based on fixed telephones, and mobile phones are only popular among high-end people, and the price of 499 is still a number that can only be looked up to for those who are in the middle and low levels.
So for Bell, it would have been best if Howard Ken had helped them develop a new phone, but if Howard Lion had opened his mouth, then they would certainly not want to find another person to share the cake.
And in the same way, with Howard's character, if he is not ready to make a lot of money in it, then there will be ghosts!
Of course, this is just Conrad's own speculation, and if he really pushes Howard or Bell into a real hurry, maybe the two of them will really join forces to deal with him.
It's just that the possibility is very small!
"But Howard's kind of person has the best face, and what if he fights for his own losses and wants to block you?" Lyndon listened to Conrad's explanation, thought for a moment and continued to ask.
"That's why I'm looking for you, father-in-law!" Conrad smiled slyly.
"I heard about the war on the Vietnamese side, and the south is dying?"
(Solemnly declare, this world is blessed by the laws of heaven, any information about a mysterious country will be blocked, you can directly see that the Asian section is missing a part, there is no country at all, and there will be no news related to the mysterious country, if there is a heavenly opportunity that is not leaked, the way of heaven will be corrected immediately.) )
"Yes, I said at the beginning that we should not be involved in the war at all, and now that the South Vietnamese regime is in jeopardy, I am considering whether to withdraw the aid." Linden rubbed his head and said.
He was actually an anti-war person, and when Kennedy made enemies everywhere, Lyndon admonished him more than once, but unfortunately, Kennedy's guy was so stubborn that he couldn't listen to other people's advice.
"Father-in-law, how sure are you about being re-elected in next year's general election?" Conrad didn't continue the conversation, but began to ask questions out of the blue.
"Well, be sure!" Lyndon was a little embarrassed, he really didn't have much power and role as a president, and he was completely a temporary member of power after Kennedy died to manage the mess, and it was really nonsense to say how much popular support there was.
"Would you like to be re-elected?" Conrad asked with a smile as he pinched his knuckles.
"Ballot manipulation is illegal!" Lyndon opened his mouth to say this.
The most serious shady scene in the United States is the manipulation of votes, because this incident will immediately become the biggest excuse for the opposition to attack, so even Linden's city government, after hearing Conrad's question, immediately reacted without even thinking about it.
As soon as the words came out, Lyndon knew that he must be different.
After all, with Conrad's IQ, it is absolutely impossible to make the mistake of having such a low IQ.
His head sprang back and forth, and in an instant he understood Conrad's thoughts.
"You mean you want me to add aid to South Vietnam?" Linden can become president, and naturally he is not stupid, and he immediately figured out all the joints.
"It's not aid, it's sending troops directly!"
No previous president of the United States can serve more than two terms, which is a rule that has been handed down since Washington, and Roosevelt alone has broken this convention for special reasons.
And what this special reason is, everyone knows it!
As long as the United States sends troops directly to South Vietnam, no matter what kind of fight it looks like, it is certain that no one will be able to shake Linden's position in next year's general election!
Changing generals on the spot is a taboo for soldiers, let alone such a big thing as changing the president.
Of course, it is not so easy to start a foreign war, and there are still many people in China who oppose US aid to South Vietnam, let alone start a war directly.
But well!
Lyndon looked at Conrad and laughed.
This son-in-law of mine is indeed very useful!
