"Emily ~ Alexander, long time no see. Good evening."

When Abel took his parents and walked around the crowd.

Helping Alexander, getting to know many people, decided to take a break at halftime.

A gentle voice sounded around Abel and the others.

Abel turned around and saw one about Alexander's age. A middle-aged and elderly white man wearing glasses and looking polite is holding a woman who should be in her fifties.

Abel felt that this white man was a little familiar, but Emily next to Alexander had already said happily, "Joan, it's good! Oh, Famira, good evening too."

Alexander, who was holding Emily's arm, also nodded lightly at the other two.

Little Laura, who was holding Abel's arm, looked up at him, her beautiful eyes seemed to ask who it was.

Abel didn't actually know, but he felt a little familiar, and he should have seen it before.

"Hello, Abel. I saw you when you were little. But that's when you're seven or eight years old. More than ten years have passed, and I didn't expect you to become so powerful."

The middle-aged and elderly white man who was called "Joan" by Emily nodded at Abel with a smile and said.

Able was sure that this should be his mother's relative, but he wasn't sure who it was.

He could only smile and wait for Emily and Alexander's reaction.

Alexander, presumably aware of his son's confusion, whispered to the county magistrate of Tarrant:

"Good evening, Joan and Famila. Abel, this should be your uncle."

Abel wasn't shocked to hear the news, he looked like Emily.

Emily nodded, "Joan is my cousin. The child of my father's brother."

Able smiled and nodded at the other party, and then whispered, "Good evening, Joan, and this lady."

Abel noticed that Joan's expression was normal, but Famila, who was supposed to be Joan's wife, was not so good.

As far as Abel knew, his mother was from Kansas. His maternal grandfather seems to have died a long time ago.

Abel hadn't seen it anyway.

Abel remembered that his mother seemed to have a lot of relatives. But there was little contact.

Abel remembers Emily and Alexander, who had barely been to Kansas.

But there are occasional people coming over from Kansas.

Joan like this must have been to Texas, otherwise Abel wouldn't have thought he was familiar.

As for what happened to my mother, why the couple never went to Kansas.

Because the two didn't say it, Abel naturally didn't know.

This made his attitude naturally seem lukewarm.

Seeing Abel like this, and Emily didn't leave Alexander's arms.

Joan smiled bitterly and whispered, "Okay, okay. So be it. Emily, you have a wonderful son. I'm so happy for you. Alexander, you're a good husband, and Emily seems to be well taken care of by you."

Abel looked at his parents, but Alexander was still expressionless, and he didn't even look like he could speak.

Emily had some expressions and looked a little excited, but she didn't show anything special other than the greeting at the beginning.

Abel guessed that there might be something inside this. Joan's wife, Famila, in particular, has always had a bad look.

….

"Hey, have a nice evening." Joan smiled wryly, took the wine glass in one hand, and walked away with his wife in the lead.

After the others had gone away, little Laura looked at Alexander and his wife, and saw that the two elders had no intention of speaking.

She whispered to Abel, "That one seems to be a member of Congress, one of the seven representatives of Kansas, and his name seems to be Joan Farr Koch."

"Koch?"

Abel looked at her, and little Laura knew what he meant.

Because in Kansas, there is a very influential, relying on the oil industry to gain a foothold in the country, the development of non

The ever-good Koch family.

"It's not that Koch." Little Laura said, "This Koch should be a Masaji family in Kansas City, Kansas. I remember there were a couple of members of Congress in their family, but all of them were representatives."

Looking at his girlfriend's erudition like the American Zhengzhi "Wang Yuyan", Abel couldn't help but laugh in a low voice: "How do you understand everything? Even such a remote Masaharu family knows?"

"Kansas is in the middle of the United States, the geographic center of the 48 states, and it's not remote." Little Laura laughed and whispered:

"As for why I know so much, it's very simple, because I'm studying hard! My grandmother told me that a bush woman should be the kind of woman her husband needs most."

"I think you need a woman who can help you in this area. Then I'll work on that! Tell you, I've got a rough idea of the Masaharu families in most of the states in our country!"

Abel was speechless, just hugged her hard.

Little Laura sensed his unusual strength and smiled sweetly at him.

Looking at the young interaction, Emily was dissipated by the slight bad feelings she had when she saw the deceased.

The conversation between the two young men just now did not avoid the couple.

Emily looked at Alexander, who whispered, "That's your child. And his achievements are even more powerful than his father's ancestors, you can say whatever you want."

Emily nodded slightly, then whispered.

Things are a bit bloody.

To put it simply, Emily is a Kansas native.

When she was a child, her father was one of the representatives of Kansas.

Later, her father had an accident and died of a stroke.

Under the law, when a member of Congress dies in office, the governor of his or her constituency generally appoints an heir to the throne.

This heir, traditionally, is usually a relative of a deceased member of parliament, and in many cases a wife or deputy.

At that time, Emily's mother had long since died, and she had only one brother.

Her brother was still in college at the time, and her uncle was her father's deputy.

Naturally, her brother could not compete with her uncle, and her father's position as a member of Congress naturally fell to her uncle.

Her brother was angry and said in the newspaper at the time that her father had not suffered a natural stroke but had been killed by her uncle.

At that time, there was a lot of commotion, and many American newspapers reported it, and later even the relevant departments intervened to investigate.

The result of the investigation was that her uncle was not guilty, but her brother was guilty of hiding flour.

….

In the end, it was her brother who was sent to prison and sentenced to thirteen years.

At that time, she was only five or six years old, and within a month, her father and brother were imprisoned.

After that.

Her uncle's family adopted her, and Emily grew up in her uncle's house.

Her uncle was very successful and was re-elected, making the Koch family even better.

Later, the year she was admitted to Rice University and came to Texas to study, her own brother was released from prison.

Not long after she was released from prison, she premeditated to kill her uncle, and set up a bomb in front of her uncle's house.

But in the end, he was unsuccessful, and when he tried to shoot, he was shot dead by the local police who arrived at the scene.

Not long after she was eighteen years old, she never returned to Kansas after learning the bad news.

That Joan Farr Koch, her uncle's youngest son, was a year older than her, and he was the one who took the most care of her when she was in Kansas.

After listening to his mother's brief account, Abel looked at Alexander.

Alexander knew what his son meant, and the father shook his head lightly and said:

"Your grandfather went there to find out. Senator Jerry Moran of Kansas is your grandfather's former comrade-in-arms. Councillor Moran helped, and the result of the investigation was that your maternal grandfather had a real stroke. Emily her

's brother's thing, there may really be some problems. But it's useless anymore, so many years have passed."

Abel thought to himself that his grandfather had really many comrades-in-arms and a really wide range of contacts.

It's no wonder that even a particularly realistic and intelligent person like Herbert would be happy to maintain a relationship with Alex Smith

"What do you mean," Abel looked at his mother.

After telling her son, Emily looked much more relaxed.

She smiled and said, "I'm almost fifty years old. My uncle has passed away. My brother has been dead for more than 30 years, and I have forgotten what my parents looked like."

"Time will heal all wounds. My baby. Joan was very nice to me, and my uncle used to be very nice to me too. I won't be going back to Kansas though. Just pretend that it's okay with me over there."

"Honey." Emily said, taking her husband's hand with one hand and Abel with the other, "I love you. All I need is you."

After Emily, who was holding the father and son in both hands, finished speaking, she looked at little Laura watching from the side.

She smiled and let go of Alexander, holding little Laura in one hand.

"And you, dear Laura, and you."

Little Laura laughed happily.

Abel shrugged, he felt that his mother had indeed let go.

Otherwise, although his hand is not that far.

But with his character, he will definitely find a way to look it up.

Even if it's very difficult to find.

"Hey~ Are you done?" Warren Buffett's voice rang out, and he walked over with his second wife in the hand.

The appearance of the stock god also temporarily broke through the somewhat solemn atmosphere of the Smith family.

"How's it going, have you caught anything?" Abel said with a smile.

Warren Buffett shook his head, "It's all a bunch of speculators. There are speculators in the right way, and there are also speculators in finance."

….

Abel laughed, "Actually, I'm also a speculator! I'm still a big speculator."

"You're different." Warren Buffett said, "You're not like everyone else. I always feel like you don't have a plan for everything, but you have a long-term plan. Maybe it's a delusion. Oh, Alexander, let's have a drink."

Buffett took the wine glass and touched Abel's father, but did not look for Abel.

Abel is in the circle and is known for not smoking or drinking.

This is something that Buffett, who loves cigars, drinks, and Coke, despises very much.

Alexander smiled and toasted Buffett gently.

Buffett's wife, Astrid Monks, Buffett, also talked to Laura Jr. and Emily very well.

This is the gathering of the real upper circles.

Most of the time it's men talking to men, and women talking to women.

Drinking parties where men and women chat are usually those of the ordinary rich or Vanity Fair.

Because in those places, there will be certain women who are higher than men.

"Alexander, your son asked me if I had anything to gain. I basically didn't get anything out of tonight. But what about you?" Warren Buffett chats with Alexander.

After nearly a year of experience and changes, Alexander can be much more sleek than before.

Compared to Abel, Alexander's appearance is more standard Ansa pirate appearance. It is a hanging triangular eye, inverted eye sockets, thin lips, rough skin, and blonde hair.

Fortunately, Abel is like him in two points at most, and Emily in other aspects, otherwise he probably wouldn't be called Apollo all the time.

"From the point of view of a Tarrantshire magistrate. I learned a lot tonight and got to know a lot of people."

Alexander smiled and said, "But from a father's point of view, my gain is about nothing, and I think I'm a bit of a failure."

"Haha~" Buffett knew what Alexander was talking about.

The son is too good, too good

。

On the other hand, it is useless to set off my father's image.

The god smiled and said, "Any father who has such a son will look like a bit of a failure! But you are the least qualified person to say this! Because when you say that, it sounds like I'm showing off!"

"I'm sorry." Alexander raised his glass to Warren Buffett, "Actually, I'm just showing you off."

Buffett was stunned, laughed again, and toasted Alexander again.

Abel blinked, and he felt like his father had changed a lot.

used to be rude like a country redneck, but now he looks quite mature and serious.

At this time, another friend of Abel came.

is Chairman of the Financial Services Group EO Sullivenston.

Sullivenston was only EO last year.

At the end of last year, because of its long-term excellent performance, as well as bringing a lot of benefits to the company.

At the time of the re-election of the board of directors, Sullivenston received unanimous approval from shareholders.

At the beginning of this year, Sullivenston successfully became the chairman of P Financial Services Group, becoming the first person in the group to be truly the group.

Sullivenston had just introduced himself to Abel's father and others.

….

Later, they separated, and each went to find their own small circle to contact the relationship.

At this time, it is estimated that the contact relationship is over, and they come together again.

He came over to see Buffett chatting with Alexander, and Sullivenston did not interject, but whispered to Abel:

"I saw Jeff Immelt over there. Would you like to go over and talk to him?"

Jeff Immelt? The name Abel felt a little familiar.

Seeing that he was still thinking, Sullivenston said helplessly:

"You still want N TV Network. Jeff Immelt is the EO and chairman of General Electric!"

"Uh" Abel looked at Sullivenston's wife, who was also in the same way as Warren Buffett's wife, and he whispered, "I remember the chairman and CEO of General Electric, wasn't it Jack Welch?"

Jack Welch is a well-known legend in the American business world.

This old man is known as "the most respected EO", "the world's first EO", and "the most successful and greatest entrepreneur in the United States today".

Under his leadership, GE, a long-established industrial giant, expanded its business into financial and advisory services, growing its market capitalization from $12 billion to over $400 billion, making it one of the world's most valuable companies.

It has also evolved from the tenth place in the profitability ranking of listed companies in the United States to the world's first-echelon supergiant.

His fame is too great in the United States, especially in the business world.

In the early years, he was known as the "Grand Commander" of the American business community.

Sullivenston said helplessly:

"Okay. You were in Europe at that time. Now GE EO is already Jeff Immelt. He took office on September 10th, and that happened the day after he took office, so the big news became a small thing."

"That's Jack Welch retiring."

Abel nodded.

"Yes. So I think your chance comes, dear Abel." Sullivenston whispered.

"You mean in the hands of Jeff Immelt and get the N Network?"

"Yes."

Sullivenston said: "Obviously, Jeff Immelt is going to be a better speaker than Jack Welch. Because the acquisition of N TV Network was the work of Jack Welch. Jack Welch takes this station very seriously. But Jeff Immelt probably won't."

"I still don't think GM will really sell N TV to you."

Buffett suddenly walked over to Alexander, and the god spoke:

"N TV is the mouthpiece of public opinion for General Electric, and even if they agree to a deal, they will be

conditional deals, and they're going to cling to their shares and board seats."

Abel had been mentally prepared for Warren's judgment.

Although with the help of Norwegians and Soros, GE is in contact with Smith Media.

The meaning of contact is that it can be discussed, but how to talk about it is completely unclear.

It's just a touch, and so far GE has no intention of letting go.

No matter how you look at it, unless it's the kind of 07-08 situation where General Electric is almost bankrupt.

Otherwise, GE takes N TV very seriously.

Later, after General Electric was extremely weakened, Comcast, which was more powerful in all aspects, came out and finally got N TV away.

….

Even if it is as powerful as Comcast, it took several years and two times to get N.

I didn't know the difficulty before, but Abel was very confident in winning N TV station.

But after really taking action, he found that it was really not so easy to win the N TV station, which General Electric regarded as a treasure, in this era when General Electric had just reached the top.

But in a way, Abel has a sense of imperative for N TV.

Although the rise of TV station A is very strong, it really can't compare with the three major radio and television networks of N and ABBS, and don't even think about surpassing it.

Even Murdoch's Fox television network, which has been in development for more than two decades, is not as large as them in terms of scale and influence.

If you really want to build a wireless public television network from beginning to end, it is not impossible to use Abel's financial resources.

It's just that it's going to be long.

It took Murdoch more than twenty years.

Even if Abel burns money regardless of the cost, it will take five or six years at the earliest.

Five or six years later, the subprime mortgage crisis came.

GE has fallen to the cloud, and the difficulty of acquiring N TV network will drop sharply.

So that's a contradiction.

On the one hand, in a few years, the high-flying General Electric will not give up on N TV.

On the one hand, if you do it yourself, it's almost done, and the difficulty of buying n has dropped again.

The Emily family thing was true, but it wasn't Koch, and it wasn't in Kansas, it was in another state, and it was bloody, so I used it
