Chapter 1436: Faith
It was another evening. Looking out from the window of this private study adjacent to the master bedroom on the 135th floor of Westeros Building, the sun had already sunk into the horizon.
An upside-down sea of stars appeared again at the foot of the building.
Jennifer pushed the door open, and there was only a desk lamp on the wide desk in the study. A man and a woman sat behind the desk with a chair, and were still discussing something in a low voice. On the other side of the wall opposite the glass curtain wall, there was a lot of information covered with densely covered with a world map. The background was a map of the world.
Without immediately coming forward to bother the two, the female assistant first came to the world map full of documents.
These A4 files that are magnetically fixed to the wall and write and draw various text patterns, along with graffiti directly on the world map, are the two people in the room planning for the world.
Or, conspiracy.
And of course it is not the meaningless delusion of a madman, it is the kind that can truly influence the direction of the world.
It is destined that only a few of them can see it.
Jennifer browsed one by one and she already knew some of the layout of electric vehicle plans, such as the most basic development of key metal minerals such as lithium nickel to specific electric vehicle research and development plans, and even the lobbying of federal and other governments around the world in terms of environmental protection policies, energy policies, tax policies, etc. in order to pave the way for the entire plan.
Some of them should have been made today.
For example, a plan to further expand the intelligence collection capabilities of the Westeros family by backdoor CIA, FBI, NSA and other federal intelligence agencies and other alliance countries to further expand the intelligence collection capabilities of the Westeros family. This is obviously to avoid the Westeros family's sudden encounter of unknown potential threats to the greatest extent.
The key to the fact that conspiracy theory has a very market is that there are indeed many conspiracies in this world. The best way to stop conspiracy is to exterminate the conspiracy in its infancy, or even not give the soil for conspiracy to be brewed.
Just like the reason why Edgar Hoover, the first director of the FBI, was able to steadily sit the throne of the King of Intelligence until his death, was that he had mastered the FBI's omnipresent intelligence network. This country and even the world were transparent to him. Therefore, not only did no one dare to create a conspiracy to depose Hoover, but he was even worried that the other party would overturn a superior person at any time with the large amount of black materials in his hands.
Therefore, for 48 years, he served as eight presidents, and his position in the White House was changed again and again, and Hoover was still Hoover.
This is the strength of intelligence.
The Westeros family has been building their own intelligence network, but in any case, such an intelligence network cannot be compared with the intelligence agencies built by the whole country. The most important point is that private intelligence networks still lack the legal legitimacy of national intelligence agencies. If you don’t pay attention, you may become the target of criticism.
Therefore, through insertion and infiltration, backdoor parasitization in national-level intelligence networks is indeed a very wonderful solution.
Jennifer took this information from the wall and read it, and saw that the plan to build the Internet into another intelligence network was obviously more convenient for the Westeros family. With the Internet resources mastered by the Westeros family, it can even be used as a bargaining chip for certain exchanges with the authorities.
After putting the information in his hand back on the wall, Jennifer scanned the last documents, then walked to the desk, reached out to the back of the chair, looked at the two people hugging each other in the office chair, and said, "The guests are all here. Even if you don't plan to have a social event, will you not have dinner?"
Of course, the two men in the chair had already seen the female assistant enter the door. Seeing her coming, Janet reached out and grabbed her and smiled, "Come on, sit together."
"The chair will break," Jennifer said, obediently approaching, but just leaning slightly on the armrest of the office chair, next to the man, looking at the computer screen in front of the two: "What is this?"
Simon stretched out his hand and wrapped himself around the female assistant's slender waist and rubbed it, saying, "For the infiltration of the federal military."
Jennifer recognized the document on the monitor as a piece of organizational information about the Joint Chiefs of Staff of the Federal Military Staff, saying: "Is it much harder to infiltrate the military than to borrow a backdoor intelligence agency?"
"Yes," Simon nodded, saying, "So, our goal is not to control, but to avoid the military's finger pointing at us at certain critical moments in the future."
Jennifer thought for a while and said, "The federal military's checks and balances system is very perfect, just so that's the direction we can break through."
Janet, who was still holding one hand of the female assistant, heard this, picked up her little hand and put it on her lips and kissed her: "Jenny, you are so smart, you thought of it immediately."
Jennifer smiled and pulled his hand back, and then said, "In fact, it is easy to think that since we don't plan to control it, then we just need to destroy other people's absolute control. The President, Congress, and the Joint Chiefs of Staff are the three parties that may threaten us. What we need to do is to instigate the remaining forces to object when one or even both parties are going to attack us, so that the relevant orders cannot be implemented."
Janet asked: "What if the president, Congress and the Joint Chiefs of Staff threaten us?"
"The military's power structure is destined to have almost no such possibility. In my opinion, the only biggest variable is the president, because the White House has only one chair and can make decisions by one person. In Congress and the Joint Conference, decision makers are all a group of people. It is difficult for a group of people to accomplish, and these are the two easiest directions we can control." Jennifer shook his head and thought about it, adding: "However, this is hard to say it is absolute, so we need to further infiltrate the execution level to ensure that the military's officer system has a group of people who belong to us."
Speaking of this, Jennifer looked at the two people on the chair again: "I know that we have planted our seeds in military academies such as West Point and Naval Officers College in recent years. But, well, it seems that it is not enough on the money level, it seems...it is still missing something?"
Janet was interested: "What is missing?"
Jennifer glanced at Janet's expression and smiled, "You guys have thought of it, so I don't have any brains."
He said and looked at Simon.
Simon didn't keep it a secret and said, "It's very simple, belief. For soldiers, they don't have faith and don't know why they fight, and the results are often very bad."
Jennifer suddenly realized and asked again, "Then how do you plan to solve this problem?"
Simon said: "It's very simple, Westerosian."
The man's answer was very concise, and Jennifer understood immediately.
Indeed, as long as the idea of the "Westeros" is further promoted and a strong sense of belonging is created, then the pieces inserted by the Westeros system into the Federation and even the world can ensure loyalty to the greatest extent.
Jennifer soon thought that Westerosian is no longer just a monetary connection.
With the gradual improvement of the 3G plan, it can be said that the entire Westeros system and all Westeros will gradually have their own lofty ideals, that is, to transform into the engine that drives the continuous progress of the entire human society and lead civilization to continue to make progress. When the goal is firm and ambitious enough, the people in it will gradually form their own beliefs, or beliefs.
After thinking about this clearly, the female assistant did not continue. Knowing that the two of them had thought it thoroughly, they lowered their heads and kissed the man on the forehead, and said, "Let's go here today. It's not good that the owners are not there."
Simon nodded and agreed, pushed Janet in his arms to get up, and the three of them left the top study together.
The land of the entire standard block between 59th Street and 60th Street east of Madison Avenue was originally acquired. The standard 140 meters multiplied by 75 meters of land, covering an area of 10,500 square meters, basically a foundation of 1 hectares. In comparison, the foundation of the World Trade Center Twin Towers is only 2,500 square meters of 50 times 50.
Therefore, even if the Westeros Tower is closing upwards, and when it reaches the highest 135th floor, the single floor area is still more than 1,800 square meters, and there are not many similar large flats in Manhattan. This is just the smallest floor of the super mansion that the Westeros Tower occupies the entire 10-story top of the Westeros Tower.
The 10-story super complex mansion has a total of more than 300 rooms. It’s a bit of a joke. If someone really can break in, he may get lost.
The three of them walked out of the study, and Janet felt as if they were a child that this place was too big. Obviously, in just one day, the freshness passed a lot and rushed straight towards Simon.
Simon simply took the woman on her back, walked through the corridor and came to the elevator, and went down to the 134th floor.
There are already waiters waiting in the dressing room here.
Since it is a party, it is impossible to go downstairs all around.
Change your clothes, take the elevator again, and go down to the dedicated banquet hall on the 28th floor, which is already very lively.
Although I didn't plan to be too grand, I carefully selected the business, political, film and entertainment circles... and there were still more than two hundred people.
When Simon showed up with two Jenny, everyone came over immediately.
If the top of Forbes' $1.8 trillion rich list a few days ago still made most people feel a little vain and confused, this super mansion located at a height of 600 meters will undoubtedly once again truly demonstrate Simon Westero's terrifying strength as the world's richest man.
Looking at a young face with a little more mature and steady, except for a little more mature and steady other than 10 years ago, the guests at the scene were even more moved.
Still 30 years old.
But it already has almost everything, out of reach, and makes people desperate.
People are always like this. When a person is better than himself, he will inevitably be jealous. If he is better than himself, he may be a little crazy. However, if he points 10,000 points widens, there is only one left to look up.
In the current banquet hall, whether it is a state leader or a member of parliament, whether it is a business tycoon or a film celebrity, they are basically the leaders in various fields. However, at this moment, there are still various complex emotions of ordinary people that may not have felt for a long time.
Fortunately, various emotions quickly dissipated as a young man joined the crowd and began to socialize skillfully.
I had various plans and conspiracies.
After all, compared with many federal elites who attend hundreds of parties and cocktails every year, Simon Westeros attends similar occasions less and less frequently in recent years, and there are very few parties that are actively held.
Every time, it is an opportunity.
Even if you can’t talk about the important matter, talk a little more with the other party and mention it cleverly, you may be remembered by the other party and eventually gain unexpected gains.
Simon is really concerned.
Others regard such parties as opportunities, and Simon is the same. The only difference is that others have various requests, and Simon basically plays the role of a donor.
"Yes, Tom, I'm honestly honest, this is definitely not a profitable business. The problem is that we need to look at it a little longer. New York Mellon only needs to put out $2 billion. The total investment I plan is $10 billion. Do you think I'll waste such money?"
A corner beside the glass curtain wall of the banquet hall.
The party is a buffet situation, but most people do not choose to play the food on the table. It is too stupid to focus on what they eat, so they basically hold a glass of wine and chat in groups of three or five.
Simon is talking about aid low-interest loans for Africa, including Thomas Leonie, CEO of New York Mellon Bank, David Rubin, chairman of Carlyle Group, and Lawrence Fink, CEO of Black Rock Asset Management, Cersei Capital.
Since it was Simon's decision and it had begun to be implemented, no one else would object. After all, opposition was invalid. When it comes to it, everyone was just curious.
Thomas Leonie, who just asked, said: "Simon, I just want to know, what are your specific ideas about Africa?"
"The specific idea is actually very simple, it's still business," Simon said. "And it's not the monotonous and direct business behind the current war in Africa. Selling some arms and occupying some minerals is too rough and primitive. What I want to do is to once again occupy some areas of Africa through the form of money."
Simon said this level, and everyone around him immediately understood that a word emerged in his mind.
colony.
The colonies in the West were seized through barbaric killing. This time, someone planned to use the weapon of money as another weapon to occupy Africa as another level of "colonies".
Although everyone is still not optimistic, and can feel Simon's obvious reservation, some key information was not disclosed, but when they think of the word colony, everyone has no doubts. Because it is very simple, colony actually means something, huge profits.
The terrifying profits created by the East India Company's foreign trade business that even made shareholders excited to have a heart attack.
This is what you can imagine.
