In New York, the weather in North America has started to get cooler in the DuPont family business headquarters, Albright DuPont has been tortured enough in recent times and has no mood to pay attention to weather changes.
Since the summer, the scandal about DuPont Chemical Company first broke out on the Internet, involving safety issues caused by Teflon and other related chemicals. Then it fermented from the Internet to the media, so that people all over the world are paying attention to this matter.
After such an incident broke out, the public relations team's response time was very slow and their response strategy was even worse.
This caused the whole thing to become out of control.
At the same time, there are many big capitalists who take advantage of the situation.
After all, Wall Street is a place where everyone is concerned with profit. As soon as everyone sees that there is profit to be made, they will of course rush in.
Retail investors were at the forefront, followed by large financial institutions such as the Morgan family, who secretly put the ready-made profits into their own pockets.
Because of this, many companies, such as DuPont Chemical Company, have not yet recovered.
"How is the damage tallied?"
In the luxurious office, Albright DuPont rubbed his temples. His brows were actually so furrowed that they could pinch a fly to death for a family of four.
This matter is indeed outrageous, but right now the issue is not revenge, but to get through this difficult time first.
Several months have passed, and the DuPont family has not yet overcome the difficulties, let alone revenge.
As one of the top ten capital families in North America, the DuPont family's financial power is of course terrifying.
However, this is a global crisis and its impact cannot be eliminated in a short period of time.
What's more, North American Internet giants such as Apple, New Culture Power Enterprise, and Sydney Company are unwilling to let go because they are too greedy and have directly grasped the weak spot of the DuPont family.
But Albright duPont was unwilling to give up, so he planned to use traditional methods to overcome this crisis.
But the current trend has exhausted him and he has already admitted defeat.
However, Apple and other Internet giants were stubborn and unwilling to lower their demands, which made Albright DuPont very angry.
So the two sides were stuck in a stalemate.
As long as the news about the DuPont family on the Internet is not removed, the damage to the DuPont family's reputation will not stop.
"The direct economic losses that have been confirmed so far have exceeded 3 billion . dollars, and the indirect losses may be more than 10 billion . dollars."
Chief David Cotteritt said cautiously.
In just a few months, the DuPont Group lost so much money, and even more so its reputation and other losses. Although the loss of more than 10 billion US dollars was not a serious blow to the DuPont family, it was painful enough.
Now it is the 1990s, and the total assets of the entire DuPont family have exceeded one trillion US dollars.
You know, a hundred years ago, the DuPont family's total assets were already 150 billion US dollars. This shows how wealthy their family is.
But total assets are total assets, and 3 billion US dollars is a direct loss of real money. If the DuPont family were asked to take out so much money at once, it would be difficult.
Therefore, the direct loss of billion US dollars and the indirect loss of 10 billion US dollars are really not a small amount.
Hearing this, Albright DuPont suddenly felt dizzy.
Maybe he made a mistake. If he had agreed to Apple's conditions at the beginning, perhaps IU would not have suffered so much loss.
Unfortunately, it is too late for them to regret now.
Just when the DuPont family was regretting their decision, the Morgan family was also discussing one thing: should they completely get rid of the DuPont family?
There are many reasons why the Morgan family wanted to bring down the DuPont family, one of which was naturally to add insult to injury.
It is said that it is easier to add flowers to a beautiful woman than to help someone in need. This is true.
The DuPont family is suffering from severe losses today. If one of the legs of the DuPont family can be broken, Lannister Morgan will definitely be very happy to see it.
Among all the capital consortiums in North America, the Rothschild family is definitely the uncrowned king.
However, the Rothschild family has become very low-key and will not easily do anything small.
Especially in the late 1980s, after the bankruptcy of Rothschild Investment Bank, they hid even deeper.
The Rothschild family owns the Federal Reserve and has the largest stake in this bank, so they are in a very secure position.
The Morgan family wants to go further, so making more money is their current goal.
As early as the beginning of this century, the Morgan family had successfully controlled several industries in North America, including the financial industry, becoming a well-deserved trust.
It's a pity that in North America, internal strife is very serious.
All trusts were eliminated, and even many companies, such as IBM, which were suspected of monopoly, were warned.
Nowadays, it is absolutely impossible for any trust to appear again on the North American continent.
It’s just because the resistance is too great. No one wants to see any capital climbing over the heads of other capitals and shitting and pissing on them.
What's more, there are the Roosevelt family, the Adams family, the Kennedy family, etc. These forces will not allow the existence of trusts.
Based on this situation, the Morgan family that Lannister Morgan envisioned was at the top of the food chain, becoming the capital family with the most assets and power in the world.
However, it is really difficult to accomplish such a great feat because it is even more difficult to make money now.
Many industries have become stagnant and it is difficult to intervene.
For example, can the Morgan family intervene in retail businesses such as Qianduoduo Supermarket and Walmart Supermarket?
I can't move at all!
Because companies like Qianduoduo Supermarket have already occupied more than 70 percent of the market share in the . retail industry, even farms and processing plants also occupy a high share.
But it is not a monopoly, let alone a trust, simply because Qianduoduo Supermarket and Walmart Supermarket are among the giants.
For example, Internet giants such as Apple, New Power Company, and Sydney Company are also giants in the North American Internet, occupying more than 90 percent of the market share in North America and even the global Internet.
It can almost be said that no other company can compete with it.
The most important thing is that there are several giants, not just one giant, that occupy the entire Internet industry.
Therefore, North American laws such as antitrust laws have no effect on these companies.
The Morgan family wanted to enter this industry, and they had tried before, and they are still trying now. However, up to now, they have not been able to achieve much in the Internet industry, let alone market share. Then there is the electronic technology products industry. The world's three largest companies are Sinovac, China Resources, and Apple, which directly occupy more than 80% of the global electronic technology products market.
Global capital, including the six major zaibatsu in Tokyo, the European zaibatsu, the top ten capital families in North America, etc., all want to enter this industry, but is it possible?
impossible!
Unless they are doing some geo-economics, it is impossible.
The great wave of global economic development was originally a product created by Washington, leading Great Britain, Frankfurt, Italy, Tokyo and other countries.
Today's global economy has almost achieved a large-scale economic integration where you are in me and I am in you.
Once geo-economics is engaged in, the strong economic backlash will be something that Washington and others would not like to see.
After all, they can't bear to give up the huge market of one billion people in the Far East. Only those who have experienced it personally know how much wealth is hidden there.
Based on this historical background, if Lannister Morgan wanted to make some money, he could only come up with other ideas.
The crisis facing the DuPont family this time is unprecedented.
The direct losses exceeded 3 billion US dollars, and the indirect losses exceeded 10 billion US dollars. It is so terrifying.
If the Morgan family can get involved, then even if they can't make 3 billion, making 10 billion US dollars should be no problem, right?
If in the process, he accidentally discredits the head of the DuPont family, or causes other major incidents, then the money he earns will definitely be more than this.
"Ok, deal!"
Lannister Morgan is the god of the entire Morgan family, and what he says is what it is.
So, there is nothing much to say about this meeting.
On the other side, von der Lean quickly noticed the little action of Lannister Morgan and couldn't help laughing.
Von der Lean and Lannister Morgan have been good friends for centuries. It can be said that they have been in love and hate with each other for most of their lives, and they are the leaders of their respective families.
Therefore, Lannister Morgan's little tricks could not be hidden from von der Leian at all.
"It seems Morgan still hasn't suffered enough. Haha, let's see how you will cry then."
On the other side, in the White House office in Washington, Herbert Walker was exhausted, but he had to fight to the last moment.
At this time in North America, the issue of the class leader election has already entered the open air.
Either Herbert Walker or Tang Dake, there is no other choice.
William Jefferson has completely faded from the sight of everyone in North America and has not appeared on the Internet or traditional media for a long time.
Even in the media newspapers, few people mention this suave successor who was once sought after by everyone.
Things in the world are so strange. Just a few months ago, William Jefferson was still a hot figure, but now he has disappeared.
So, creating a god is easy, and destroying a god is even easier.
Whether it is Tang Dake or Herbert Walker, both sides are no longer doing any tricks. They both want to win this election by fair means.
"We, the Walker family, must win. Only by winning can we, the Walker family, surpass those families in history."
Herbert Walker exhorted his son George Walker, "There is only a little over a month left. We must act quickly and make a comeback."
It is now October, and there is still more than a month before the final results are announced in November.
The time is not long, but it is definitely not short either.
Therefore, whether it is George Walker or James Quayle, the deputy monitor, they must do their best to make more people choose Herbert Walker.
Comrade Tang Dake, who came to California, gave his umpteenth speech in his life.
As a middle-aged man in his forties, Tang Dake has experienced success and failure, but no matter what, he has now stood up again.
So he was more passionate when he gave a speech.
He always uses his own experience to inspire young people: the world is not a pure land, and everyone has their own sufferings, but no matter whether life is smooth or rough, one should not give up, but move forward courageously.
In 1991 in North America, the unemployment rate was still very high and life for ordinary people was still not easy.
why?
The complex and ever-changing external environment included the collapse of the Moscow Alliance, the global financial crisis caused by the Tokyo turmoil, the changes in the Middle East caused by the oil crisis and the subsequent Gulf War, as well as the general background of the times such as the slowdown in economic growth in North America and the world.
Many people have lost their loved ones and many people have lost their jobs.
When Tang Dake talked about these things in his speech, he was able to inspire and infect the people present, simply because he was truly emotionally invested and he had indeed experienced those endless abyss-like predicaments.
Therefore, many people choose to believe Tang Dake and are more willing to vote for him.
After finishing a speech, Joe Black, one of the sponsors, looked at Tang Dake with a smile and congratulated him:
"Oh, what a brilliant speech, Don, you are a natural for monitor, God, you are awesome."
Tang Dake almost rolled his eyes when he heard this.
Joe Black is one person in front of people and another behind their backs. He is like an Oscar-winning actor. So scary.
Now they were in a public place, so Joe Black was very polite when talking to Tang Dake, and mostly praised him.
But in private, Joe Black pointed at Tang Dake's nose and cursed him countless times.
You know, it has only been a few months since Tang Dake was asked to run for election again, but he is scolded by the other side almost every day.
Words like idiot, fucking asshole, stupid, etc., and even many insulting words appear frequently.
All in all, Tang Dake, with his violent temper, couldn't tolerate the other party.
Therefore, the relationship between the two is not good, and it can even be said to be very bad.
For example, now, when Tang Dake heard what the other party said, his smiling face suddenly turned cold, and then he left without saying a word.
I don't even bother to pay attention to him. (End of this chapter)
