Chapter 869 We are different

This mentality really helped little Gilbert a lot, otherwise things would not have been so smooth.

Otherwise, the matter of the island and the father in the previous life was made into such a big deal, but in the end many people didn’t really get hurt.

A big reason is that these people generally control the media, or have a very good relationship with the media. And the reason why these things can be known to people all over the world is because of the spread of information on the Internet.

Of course, this is Gilbert Jr.'s judgment based on his previous life's observations and personal experience, and represents his personal opinion.

In short, now is not the time for everyone to tear each other apart and start fighting. They have fought countless times behind the scenes, but they maintain a harmonious friendship on the surface.

Just before the James Brown incident and the scandal broke, the Wall Street Journal named Gilbert Jr. its Technology Leader of the Year.

The review reads: "Although Gilbert Jr. is neither a scientist nor an engineer, his outstanding vision and investment strategy have enabled Silicon Valley to achieve rapid development.

We should note that Gilbert's industry is not just based on software such as Watermelon Company and Banana Company.

In the hardware field, he has also invested in companies such as Apple, Cisco, Qualcomm, Nvidia, and Intel.

He even got involved in the automobile manufacturing industry and is the second largest shareholder of Tesla. He also got involved in aerospace exploration with Elon Musk and founded Space Exploration Technologies Corporation.

He never tires of pursuing new technologies for the benefit of the future of mankind."

In the "4 World Rich List" released in mid-April, Gilbert Jr. became the first super-rich person to have assets exceeding $2012 billion, ranking first with $1037 billion.

The second place is Carlos Slim Helu, who has been ranked the second richest man in the world for the third consecutive year with a net worth of 690 billion US dollars.

He is the owner of the Mexican telecommunications giant Carso Group, which owns companies such as Telephone Company of Mexico and America Movil.

Microsoft founder Bill Gates ranked third with $610 billion, and stock god Warren Buffett ranked fourth with $440 billion.

Li Ka-shing, chairman of Cheung Kong Holdings, ranked tenth with a fortune of US$255 billion and is the only Chinese billionaire in the top ten.

This shows the wealth gap between Gilbert Jr. and other super-rich people.

More importantly, some financial media pointed out that Gilbert Jr. did not have any bad debts or assets, and the Forbes Rich List's estimate of Gilbert Jr.'s wealth was only a conservative figure.

No wonder those financial groups were jealous of little Gilbert's wealth. In the past, those super-rich people on the list were rich, but in order to integrate into the upper class, they had to pay the price of allegiance.

Why go public? In addition to increasing personal wealth, going public also allows those big financial groups to have a piece of the pie. Otherwise, they will be unable to move forward.

But Gilbert Jr. was different. His company was listed, and the big conglomerates could also get a piece of the pie. But the big conglomerates didn't get what they wanted the most, and Gilbert Jr. was guarding against it.

After several consecutive failures in harvesting, Gilbert Jr.'s wealth continued to grow thanks to emerging technologies, while the consortiums suffered heavy losses.

This gave the rest of the Silicon Valley tycoons hope. It turns out that we don’t need to integrate with you. We can also play on our own. In an instant, Silicon Valley technology companies united around Gilbert Jr. to fight against the consortiums.

You know, nowadays, manufacturing is flowing out and the financial industry is booming.

The consortiums have long completed the transformation from manufacturing to financial capital and control the financial markets.

But they never expected that Silicon Valley capitalists do not play the game of financial capital, they have products.

Every time the financial groups want to attack a technology company, they work hard to short the stock market. But as soon as the technology company holds a press conference to announce its projects and technologies, the stock price immediately goes up.

You can't shut these people up because the Internet media sector is not something that the consortiums can control, and Silicon Valley capital also has its own media to support it.

The Los Angeles Times, one of the three largest newspapers in the United States, is firmly controlled by Gilbert Jr. In terms of politics, Silicon Valley capitalists spend money easily, faster than the Federal Reserve's nuclear-powered printing press, so they don't mind spending money.

Over the years, under the leadership of Gilbert Jr., Silicon Valley capitalists have sponsored many congressmen.

These masters are spread across the blue and red groups. Every time the masters supported by the consortium want to pass some laws or investigations targeting Silicon Valley capital, they are collectively opposed by these masters sponsored by Silicon Valley capital.

Congressman Smith can get much more money from Silicon Valley capital than from the consortium, so he will naturally speak for the biggest financial backers.

This is the inherent inertia and thinking. The consortiums are greedy and stingy, and they only give a little sponsorship.

The old man found that Silicon Valley capital was very generous, and not just ordinary generous. The money given by him a few times was higher than his lifetime salary.

What’s more important is that they are enthusiastic!
To the school where Congressman Smith graduated, Silicon Valley Capital donated $25 million directly in his name and also donated a library.

Every year when Silicon Valley Capital needs to recruit, it will give priority to Congressman Smith's school, which makes Congressman Smith proud!

Faced with the resistance from the masters, even if Hei Lu was very determined, he could not do anything without the support of the masters.

Because it is not done through the masters, it is at most an administrative order rather than a decree. The difference is huge. Silicon Valley investors may be afraid of decrees, but they are definitely not afraid of administrative orders.

In addition, the current governor of California, where Silicon Valley is located, Klaus, was pushed to power by Silicon Valley capital.

Of course, Silicon Valley investors are not monolithic. Some old Silicon Valley investors, such as Larry Ellison, don't care about Gilbert Jr.

But unfortunately, his appeal is limited. If Bill Gates came out and said that I and Gilbert Jr. are not the same kind of people, it would have some effect.

But Bill Gates, Gilbert Jr. and Steve Jobs have been running the medical center very successfully in recent years and would never say such a thing.

Add to that the medical complex, the military-industrial complex, and the energy giants, and the situation is very chaotic now, and it is still unclear who will win.

Back to the premiere of The Dark Knight Rises, the James Brown incident and the scandal did not affect The Dark Knight Rises.

As the final chapter of the series, the film still received extremely high attention.

The film stars Christian Bale, John Gordon-Levitt, Gary Oldman, Anne Hathaway and Rachel McAdams.

It is worth mentioning that Dwayne Johnson, who plays Bane, did not appear in the main creators' appearance session, but in the guest appearance session.

So despite some speculation, not many people doubt that Dwayne Johnson is in The Dark Knight Rises.

However, with the premiere and the subsequent midnight show, the truth could no longer be hidden.

Looking at Dwayne Johnson's physique, he does have the oppressive power of a villain. When he was interviewed, he never mentioned whether he had participated in "The Dark Knight Rises".

For Gilbert Jr., this was his last film with Warner Bros., so he put his heart and soul into it.

They need to leave a good impression on each other. After all, he and Warner have had very pleasant cooperation over the years.

"I rarely direct three films in a series, but The Dark Knight series is a series that I am very satisfied with after many years in the film industry."

This is what Gilbert Jr. told the media. (End of this chapter)
