Chapter 490: There's a fire in the backyard
Warren Buffett, Soros, PNC Financial Group, Bloomberg, these people and forces, they are all Abel's earliest allies.
Especially Warren Buffett. The god of stocks is the first person to invest in Smith Capital, and he is also one of Abel's friends who have always had a good relationship.
But Abel has always known that these so-called allies and good friends are often unreliable.
In the face of interests, or in the face of life-and-death difficulties.
If they want to betray themselves, they will definitely not hesitate.
Just like when there is a need, let Abel betray them, Abel will not hesitate.
Everyone is like a bird, and no one can blame anyone.
It's not even just these people, even the Iron Alliance Bush family of Smith is the same now.
When there is a moment of life and death, or when there is a huge benefit.
Abel believes, whether it's George or Herbert, or even Neil.
What they will choose, Abel will not have extravagant hopes at all.
The more people and families climb to the top, the more ruthless they are.
A lover can't be a ruler, and a lover can't be a superior.
The ancestors of China have long summarized that the so-called mercy is not in charge of the army and righteousness is not in charge of wealth, which is a summary of this.
Just like Yin Kana, in a parallel time and space, it was time for Abel to be reborn.
In the face of interests, she betrayed her father, that called one without hesitation.
Abel has always been very sober about this.
The reason why Abel compromised with Morgun and Rockphil so quickly.
There is a fear that when he is fighting against the Morgons, these former allies will turn around and backstab themselves.
This is very likely to happen.
Abel's talent is only in the financial field, and it is not omnipotent.
If he really had a system or something, then he would definitely create another country in the United States that he was satisfied with.
Look straight at the stars and the sea, not as it is now. can only choose to blend in and entangle with these maggots.
Just like now, he was ostensibly in conflict with the Morgons, even to the point of a brawl.
This is a very serious matter in the eyes of many people who do not know the truth.
In the eyes of many, it was time for them to take sides.
When to choose Smith, or when to choose Morgun.
Leave McDonald's and return to 599 Water Street, D.C.
In the Cadillac monster compartment, Abel was terrified.
One thing came to his mind.
It made him feel like he couldn't take any chances.
After thinking about it, he spoke softly to David in the passenger seat in front of him:
"Inform Smith Media to announce the latest news from Smith Financial Group."
David was stunned, because the boss said before that it could not be announced, and he would have to wait for the right time.
I don't know if it's ahead of time, or if the right time has come.
But since the boss had already made a decision, David naturally nodded slightly.
"No problem, BOSS, I'll let you know."
David picked up the satellite phone directly in front of Abel and began to communicate with Smith Media.
On the Smith Media side, it was time for the rotating CEO Michael to take office.
From this month until April next year.
Michael Communications has always been the CEO of Smith Media. Robert Iger continued to serve as CEO of his MGM Motion Picture Group and one of the presidents of the group.
Whether the system of rotating CEOs can be continued normally and whether it can produce results?
Now it depends on whether Michael can continue Robert's previous trend of rapid development after he takes office.
Digression - Smith Media's rotation system is now also attracting the attention of major American companies and even many think tanks.
If Smith Media's system works, it is likely that this rotating CEO system will be adopted by many companies for experimentation.
Watching David finish making the call, Abel, who had thought a lot about it just now, breathed a sigh of relief.
He closed his eyes and pretended to sleep, and more than ten minutes passed.
The convoy has returned to the vicinity of 599 Water Street in DC.
In terms of time, it was close to noon at this time.
Before he was about to get out of the car at the door, he received a notice.
Little Laura is coming to Washington.
According to the plan, she was supposed to wait until Abel was done with Washington's side of the business, and then go back to New York.
At that time, the two would choose to be in New York, or go back to Texas, to carry out the Smith and Bush creation project.
She's coming over there early now, apparently for a reason.
There was a fire in the backyard.
This is the way it is in this world, some people are proud, and some people will naturally be disappointed.
Kayla Wilson, who was as proud as Kayla Wilson in the past two days, attracted much attention at the banquet she attended in Washington.
Her confident and elegant temperament, beautiful face, devilish figure, and demeanor have all become the focus of people's discussions.
The California media, which has always liked to brag about their family and belittled New Yorkers, naturally pursued their celebrities even more.
Names such as "Princess of San Francisco" have added to her body, making her beautiful for a while, and it is difficult to compare with anyone.
Therefore, when the busy and distressed study of Little Laura at the New York University branch in Manhattan, New York, saw these reports in the newspaper, she was already very unhappy.
When she knew through some channels that her man had really picked this "wild flower", she was even more unhappy, and completely detonated the resentment that had accumulated in her heart.
It's actually quite understandable.
She was able to tolerate celebrities like Yin Kana and Paris because little Laura felt that it was completely impossible for them to take away her status in the main palace.
Whether it is the family power, or the origin of becoming a Texan, or the marriage contract that has been determined, little Laura is high in front of them, and her position is very stable.
In the past, Peggy, the East Coast giant, Morgenthau, could make her feel a little threatened.
Little Laura also knows that Abel and Peggy may be a little ambiguous... But in general, the two are still very clean and pure.
And now, out there is a Kayla Wilson.
First of all, Kayla's Wilson family is even a little stronger in California or the West Coast than shrubs are in Texas.
Wilson has been a commander and has served many terms as governor of California. In this respect, it is on par with the shrubs, but in the economic area, Wilson, as one of the leaders of the California consortium, is far stronger than the Texas shrubs.
The key is that the California consortium and the Texas consortium have the possibility of cooperation.
At this time, Kayla's status and importance were raised again.
In other words, Kayla has the potential to challenge her backyard status in every aspect.
She can endure other aspects, but little Laura can't bear this aspect.
And then she killed her.
It takes less than two hours to fly from New York to Washington, D.C.
After receiving the news, Abel passed by the gate of 599 Water Street in D.C. without entering.
Sitting in the luxurious office car, Abel rubbed the Jin Ming acupoint on the bridge of his nose a little helplessly.
A woman's intuition is very sensitive, or rather, only the same kind understand the same kind.
Kayla has the idea of replacing little Laura, who can also sense her threat. No, they're all here to face the challenge.
Buzzing......
Abel took out the vibrating phone from his pocket and looked at it, with a wry smile on his face.
"Hey, dear. Did you get on the plane? ”
"Okay. Then I'll be waiting for you in Washington. Actually, you don't have to come, you have to believe me, you are my true love, and the woman I value the most. ”
"Okay, okay. I know you're not here for her, you just miss me too much. Come on, well......"
"I probably won't be able to pick you up, though. I'm going to meet with the Mahogon in the afternoon, and now it's going to be a lot of trouble outside, and I need to calm them down. ”
"Good, good, I know. I won't let myself get too tired, I love you......"
Abel hung up the phone, playing with the phone in his hand, his eyes squinted slightly, looking at the slightly gray sky of Huashengdu, and muttered softly: "Made, is this kind of finally going to happen to me......"
Edward and David, who were the drivers in front, both heard the boss's soft voice.
Edward couldn't hear it because his boss spoke standard Chinese.
Edward, an old beauty, couldn't understand.
David understood.
Mr. Butler actually didn't know Chinese originally, but because Chinese was the only foreign language his boss knew, David secretly learned it in private and learned it very hard.
Now he can understand most of what the boss says.
It's useless to understand, because this kind of thing is obviously something that the boss can't handle by himself.
David is a housekeeper, of course, he can't handle it.
Then you can only assume that you don't know, or you don't hear or understand.
Around five o'clock in the afternoon, the black Cadillac monster left one of the Morgun's strongholds in Washington.
Looking out the window, Abel's distant convoy.
John Chris Morgun turned his head and chuckled at the old Rockphile next to him and said:
"This kid is still very sharp. I don't know if Herbert told him, or if he thought of it himself. ”
David smiled, "Maybe both." He was a very intelligent man, a very cautious and at the same time very self-aware man in addition to his financial talents. ”
Just as Abel thought, this time Mahogon and Rockphil ostensibly cooperated with him, and everyone became their own people.
It looks like everyone is happy. But in fact, they also set up a small pit for Abel.
It's the fight on the Federal Advisory Committee... Beaten.
Those who know the inside story know that this is a play between the two of them.
More people who don't know will think that it is a sign that Moregan, Rockphil and Smith have completely torn their faces, and a great upheaval is coming.
This part of the people, in order to choose self-protection, they will take sides without knowing the real inside story.
Stand with Smith, or take Morgun's side.
These people, whether they are standing with Smith or standing with Morgon, when they later know that the conflict was actually played out.
An embarrassing situation was formed.
Standing Smith, he would have feared that this would lead to the resentment of the Morgons.
These people would blame Abel and Morgen for playing this drama and trick them.
Let them not be human inside and out.
At this time, the Magun and they are powerful, and they will only choose to be dissatisfied with Abel.
If these people chose to side with Morgun, it would alienate them from Smith. Even if they want to make amends afterwards, they worry that Smith will no longer trust them.
In general, it will not hurt Abel much, but it will bury a thorn in the hearts of his companions in Abel's camp.
And this kind of thorn is the most numb thing on the side of Abel, who has an unstable foundation and a deep foundation.
"There might be that guy from Warren Buffett too." John Criss whispered:
"That guy accompanied him to the Washington Post building in the morning. This guy is very dissatisfied with us. ”
David nodded, "I know. Warren Buffett, he seems to be very optimistic about this kid. Forget it, it's already been discovered by him, so it won't work. ”
"Hmmm......"
The two giants were talking when Abel, who had just left them, was in the car.
At this moment, he also thought of what the two giants were thinking.
That's what Warren Buffett said at McDonald's in the morning.
It's likely that Buffett isn't curious about the inside story at all.
It was the old fellow who was telling himself very secretly that Morgun and Rockephile had their sinister intentions in this matter.
That...... Abel couldn't help but think of Herbert again.
What Buffett can think of, it makes no sense that Herbert, a super old fritter, didn't expect.
If Herbert thought of it and didn't tell himself......
Abel couldn't have thought about it anymore.
He felt that if he thought about it any longer, then no one in the world could believe it.
Abel had to silently recite in his heart: If the water is clear, there will be no fish, if the water is clear, there will be no fish, and when the water is clear, there will be no fish......
"Made, intrigue and intrigue or something, I'm really not good at it."
Half an hour later.
Washington SAR, 2100 NW Dunmore.
This high-end estate, located in the Phillips Park neighborhood near the Fox Hall neighborhood, is known for its rolling hills, mature trees, and outstanding estates.
The convoy drove into the 5-bedroom, 7-bath high-end manor, and Abel got off at the entrance of the main hall.
There were several people standing at the door, including Marcus, the head of the Secret Service team, who received two salaries, and Hannah Catherine, who had previously worked as a spy for Abel.
Seeing Abel appear, Marcus hurriedly came up and whispered, "Boss, ......"
Seeing this name spoke, Hannah and several other Secret Service agents next to her drifted over with strange glances.
Marcus, who had already reached a revolving door deal with Rock Security, quickly changed his tune, but his attitude was as courteous as ever:
"Mr. Smith, Miss Bush looks a little upset."
Able nodded at him, "Thanks, Marcus." ”
Patting the Secret Service leader on the shoulder, Able stepped into the main hall.
As soon as he entered, the expression on his face was "Huo".
Abel shook his head and smiled wryly, looking at the torn newspaper, the coffee table, the broken mobile phone on the carpet, the suitcase on the sofa, and the sound of the TV turned on very loudly, playing the ninth season of "Friends".
Led by a female bodyguard, Abel came to the bedroom door, opened the door and looked in, only Simmons was in a mess, and there was no one who saw little Laura.
The female bodyguard said that there was no one outside, so only the bathroom remained.
Able walked into the bedroom, first restored himself to his original state, and then crept to the bathroom door.
Sure enough, I heard the sound of water coming from inside, which seemed to be the sound of water spilling out of the bathtub onto the floor.
"Bell, bell!"
Abel opened the door with a smile on his face, and made a shining appearance, with a voice in his mouth.
Wow!
Little Laura, who was immersed in the water, was startled from the bottom of the water, her golden hair clinging to her body, and the water droplets on her somewhat haggard face were dripping, and her eyes were red and she glared at Abel.
This kind of scene is rare, Abel scratched the back of his head a little embarrassed, and sneered: "Honey, I'm here......"
Little Laura looked at the handsome face that she loved and hated, and all kinds of feelings poured out.
Brush!
Tears welled up in her eyes, as drops of water from her face slid down her cheeks.
This is the first time Abel has seen her cry, and to be honest, Abel is a little panicked.
"Don't, don't, dear. Don't be like this, why are you crying, don't be like this. ”
Abel stepped forward.
Little Laura doesn't speak, she just cries.
She looked at Abel, who was close to Chi Chi, and ran over to squat down, wiping the tears on her face, with a distressed look.
She began to splash water, completely revealing Abel's body.
When she finally calmed down her excitement, Abel continued to comfort her.
Little Laura said what happened.
Little Laura actually arrived at three o'clock in the afternoon.
When she arrived, little Laura had planned to come over directly.
This is another place where Abel lived in Washington, and there are several of them here.
At the airport, however, she meets Kayla Wilson.
Kayla Wilson took the initiative to come up and say a lot of nasty things to her.
The two almost got into a fight on the spot......
"She scolded me and said I was so young to seduce you! You know, I don't have any! I just obey the arrangement of the family, listen to the arrangement of my father! ”
"She's talking nonsense!"
"Good, good......" Abel reassured her.
Abel actually knows these things, and Kayla and little Laura have people around him who have arranged for them.
But if you know it, the people he arranged don't dare to stop these two from quarreling, and at most they can only avoid them from really fighting.
This kind of thing, in fact, is not talked about at all. At the end of the day, it's his Abel Smith who did something wrong.
That is, his status is too high now, and they are also super noble women, even if they make trouble, they don't dare to make trouble with him.
They chose infighting, and they have what they are now.
Abel didn't know what to do, he didn't have that kind of experience.
It's always women who please him, even little Laura and Kayla when they're alone.
Now if you want him to please women, he really won't.
Then simply ......
Seeing that little Laura was in a relaxed mood, how shameless he was.
At this time, the cheeky skin has already thrown the Pacific Ocean.
He didn't speak, didn't respond directly, just laughed and got up from the floor and stepped into the tub.
"Fuck off...... Whew, why did you get in, let go of me......"
"Hey, hey, good, it'll be fine in a while......"
A few hours later, when Abel left the bedroom satisfied, little Laura didn't even want to move.
Looking at the back of him leaving happily, little Laura, who was pretending to be pitiful at the last moment, showed a smug little expression on her face.
"Hey...... Kayla Wilson! Even if you are prettier than me and your family background is no worse than mine, so what? ”
"Open-mindedness and easy satisfaction are the first reasons why I occupy the most important position in his heart!"
Thinking happily like this, she lost her mind and fell asleep.
As night falls, the lights come on.
The night in Washington is not as colorful as New York.
But in many cases, as the capital of the Empire, the concentration of intrigue here is far greater than anywhere else in the United States.
When I got here, even the women began to like to intrigue and fight......
