FBI 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 power, it was easy to push the media to report, and it 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 call him and give in, but even his plan for revenge was frustrated.

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. Coupled with the fact that the Carpenter family has now stabilized and broken through the siege under the leadership of Alex, it 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 broken itself, and the large number of ABC TV employees they poached did not make the TV station suffer a serious blow, but because it freed up a lot of seats, the remaining employees and new employees have a very strong fighting spirit.

Today, ABC's ratings are snowballing, growing bigger and bigger, further boosting the morale of the staff.

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, even other TV stations dare not easily block the way forward of ABC TV.

As for Walt? What other tricks Disney has to come up with will 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. have been greatly impacted. 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 SCC, and now NASA is completely occupied by SCC. In NASA, the leadership positions of various key departments are from SCC.

Nominally, NASA is the organization that coordinates all rocket and satellite research and development in the United States, but in fact, this big piece of fat has been swallowed by SCC. The other small fish and shrimp who followed behind SCC could only drink some soup at most.

With the Hughes Group as a backer, Alex doesn't have to worry about what happens to SCC. In addition, von Bryan's ability is indeed good, and after he has a lot of resources in his hands, he has made the United States a lot better 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 it to such an extent.

As for computers, IBM has been around since it was Seymour? After Clay was stunned, he never reacted. Their IBMDS system has become a chicken rib, and although it is actually the fastest computer in the world, CPT's computer can achieve faster and better computing speed at a smaller cost.

In the area of electronic products, CPT companies are 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 regain 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 initially operating at a loss every day, they soon found 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 they lose their temper with customers because of too many people, which makes 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 Trans World Airlines, it is different, there are free seats every day, and the service attitude of the flight attendants is also in place, and many people soon find that taking a Trans World Airlines plane is a pleasure. 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 this method, 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 found themselves in a declining market share that had fallen to the level it had had before the price cut.

This makes the people of Pan Am incomprehensible, and they can't figure out why they will reduce the price for a period of time, and then increase it back, which will 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 FBI 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, many people mistakenly think that he is a so-called robot who 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 ...... to catch up with them." Tolsson, as the FBI's deputy director, knows more about such nuances, 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 anything to do with it, 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......)
