#732 - Chapter 732: All the chaebols have fled? It's too late to find out about the wiretapping
White House.
President's Office.
Albert was waiting for news from the consortium.
Three days ago, he sent Lawrence to personally discuss fundraising with the major consortia.
This kind of thing...
The consortia couldn't possibly agree on the spot.
They needed to go back and convene their core members to discuss how to make exorbitant demands and extract more benefits.
They promised to give a result in three days!
As for the conditions proposed by the consortia...
As long as they weren't too outrageous, he would agree without hesitation, since he didn't plan to fulfill them anyway.
What if the conditions were too outrageous?
He couldn't agree!
Because it might make the major consortia suspicious.
"Mr. President, something bad has happened!"
Suddenly!
Lawrence ran in with a drastic change in expression.
"What's going on?" Albert had a bad feeling.
"Morgan, Rockefeller, DuPont... all the top consortia have simultaneously announced a decision!"
"Decision?"
"They have transferred all their shares and control of the group to the younger generation!"
"What... what does that mean?"
"The direct descendants of the younger generation have all gone to China!"
"What?!"
Albert was completely dumbfounded.
Three days ago.
He asked Lawrence to find consortia to raise funds, and it was impossible for all parties to give results immediately, and in the past three days...
Each consortium has multiple shareholders, right?
For example, the Morgan consortium, the Morgan family owns the most shares, and there are other shareholders.
Thus.
All the major shareholders of the Morgan consortium had their children go abroad in these two or three days.
Some went to South America to travel.
Some went to Africa to hunt.
Some went to Eastern Europe to play poker—Eastern Europe is full of beauties.
In short, at least one direct descendant went abroad under various pretexts.
Super rich second generation, many are greedy for pleasure, isn't it normal to go abroad?
The White House wouldn't pay too much attention, they would only stare at the core decision-making level of the major consortia.
But!
After the rich second generation arrived at their destinations, they all transferred to China.
At the same time.
The shares of the major consortia under the names of their fathers and grandfathers have been quietly transferred to them.
The Morgan consortium is like this.
Other consortia are also operating in the same way.
In other words.
The decision-makers of the major consortia are still under the White House's surveillance, still in North America, but they no longer have shares, let alone decision-making power.
The new decision-making level is all in China!
Bang!
He picked up the pen holder on the table and slammed it on the ground.
Not relieved!
He continued to smash other things.
Still not relieved!
"Contact the military!"
Albert's eyes were burning with murderous intent: "Arrest them all, and then..."
"Mr. President, something has happened!"
The Foreign Minister ran in with a panicked expression.
Something happened?
As soon as Albert heard these two words, he couldn't help but feel his bladder tighten.
"China claims that the senior executives of our major consortia have submitted applications for naturalization to China, and China requires our country not to have any obstruction to them, otherwise..."
"Otherwise what?!"
"Otherwise, they will kick us out of the financial framework!"
"Fuck!"
"They will also cut off the root server, they will also tear up the commercial agreement, they will also..."
The Foreign Minister said many 'also'.
Every 'also' was like a sledgehammer hitting Albert's chest.
He knew.
China would really do that.
And has this strength!
Once this happens, North America will be completely reduced to an isolated island, and before external forces take action, the interior will be in chaos.
After all, North America is a multi-ethnic immigrant country, the saying of uniting to overcome difficulties...
Does not exist!
As long as the people can't survive, marches and riots will break out!
But...
If no obstruction is made to the major consortia, it's not just people who will leave.
Massive assets will flow out of North America.
Flowing to the biggest opponent—China!
"The White House... has an inside traitor!"
Albert gritted his teeth.
Why did these consortia run away?
Logically speaking.
Borrowing money from the consortia in the name of the government, the consortia can just put forward various requirements to further deeply kidnap North American politics.
This is what the consortia want to see!
Unless...
The plan to take the eggs first and then kill the chicken was leaked.
And he only told Lawrence about this plan.
"It's not me... it's really not me!"
Lawrence was shocked to discover that Albert was staring at him: "Don't you trust me? My wife is so good to you..."
"I know it's not you."
Albert's face was grim, still staring at him intently.
Suddenly!
Lawrence seemed to think of something.
He quickly took out his phone.
That's right!
He suspected that he or the president was being eavesdropped on.
He would definitely not leak things that only two people knew, and the president would not leak them either—eavesdropping is the only possibility!
Unfortunately...
What's the use of realizing you're being eavesdropped on?
It's too late!
There are only two options now.
Either, forcibly retain the assets of the major consortia, at the cost of being completely isolated globally.
Or.
Turn a blind eye to the consortia's transfer of assets.
Given the economic state of North America, once so many consortia's assets are withdrawn, it will cause a fatal blow to the economy.
How to choose?
"They can go."
Albert narrowed his eyes and suddenly said: "All outgoing assets must be taxed at 10%!"
At present, this is the best way.
It will not be isolated.
At the same time, negotiate to tax outgoing assets.
Using the funds obtained from taxation to replenish the stretched military expenditure, not only can space fighters be built, but also all R\u0026D in Area 51 can be promoted—this money is enough to advance the Free Nation plan.
Of course, the simultaneous departure of so many consortia will make the economy worse.
But...
What can be done?
He now only wants to use the 'Free Nation' complete plan to regain the status of a superpower.
Otherwise, even if the consortia do not leave, the North American economy will collapse sooner or later.
Technology!
Is the core of everything!
...
Chen Hao is only responsible for making a start and subsequent overall planning.
It is impossible to carry out everything personally.
Still have to do research and development, right?
Time flies.
Unconsciously, a month has passed.
Underground floor of the Research Center.
High-voltage wireless power transmission test area.
An instrument is placed on the open space, and in the distance are inflatable piles connected to a large number of high-performance lithium batteries.
Has the R\u0026D been successful?
No!
Similar to quantum communication.
Quantum communication is not difficult to achieve, the difficulty lies in multi-quantum, long-distance connection, otherwise it will not have commercial value.
Similarly, wireless power transmission is not difficult.
The difficulty lies in current intensity and transmission distance.
At this moment.
Large current high-voltage testing is being carried out, which are the two core aspects of wireless power transmission.
Another core technology is distance.
"President Chen!"
Just about to test, someone ran over: "The J-40 project, someone was sent to find you!"
Chen Hao was stunned for a moment.
The J-40 has already completed R\u0026D and has begun full-scale mass production.
So...
Finding him is not because of the fighter jet.
The biggest possibility is—the particle cannon!
"You guys test, I'll go over first." He turned and left.
Twenty minutes later.
Just arrived at the J-40 R\u0026D area, and saw a group of old acquaintances, directing the transport of a wooden box.
The wooden box is very large.
About four meters long and nearly two meters wide and high.
"President Chen!"
Seeing that Chen Hao had arrived, Zhang Enhe was full of excitement: "This can't be tested here, let's change places?"
"Okay!"
Chen Hao nodded.
Obviously, he guessed right!
That's a particle cannon, given that the attack distance is uncontrollable, it cannot be tested in the research institute.
