The Wolf of Los Angeles.

Mandalay, Southeast Asia.

Ge Danwei came out of the school with his schoolbag on his back and entered the cold drink shop across the street. He saw a white man with long blond hair and a beard.

He ordered a glass of iced cola, took it and sat in front of the other person, and asked in English: "Are you Michael?"

The blond man said, "Are you Godanwei, who specializes in computer and network repair?"

From his accent, Godanwei could tell that it had a European tone, quite similar to the Russians he had met before.

"It's me." Ge Danwei has lived in Mandalay for a long time. This city mainly deals in jade and other shady businesses. He knows that there are some things he shouldn't ask: "What do you want me to do? Repair your computer?"

The blond man said, "I'm not very good at using computers. I want to find someone to upload some things to the Internet."

Having done similar work many times, Godanwei said with a smile, "I'll charge for it."

The blond man took out a USB drive and handed it to Ge Danwei: "There is a video in it. Upload it to the Internet, to those websites around the world with the most viewers. The wider the better."

Ge Danwei took out his notebook from his schoolbag, installed the wireless network card, and said, "We can do it now."

The blond man smiled and said, "Can you use wireless network cards here?"

“This is Mandalay!” Ge Danwei turned on his computer and plugged in the USB drive, emphasizing, “This is the second largest city in Myanmar!”

The blond man didn't say anything else. According to the Western media, this place is basically a primitive society.

Godanwei opened Yahoo and posted it to the Yahoo community first. After the video was uploaded, he couldn't help but take a look. He found that the content in the video was a small plane that rushed down from the sky quickly and crashed into a brick-concrete house on the ground, causing a violent explosion.

Not only did the house collapse, but the car inside was also destroyed.

This explosion from the sky is very powerful!
Godanwei discovered that the bombed houses seemed to be in the Middle Eastern Arab style.

He hesitated a little and was about to ask a question when he noticed a black plastic bag on the table.

The bag is filled with the largest denomination Myanmar currency.

In the jade market in Mandalay, people prefer to trade in cash in this way.

The blond man pushed the plastic bag towards him.

Ge Danwei looked around and saw that there were not many people in the cold drink shop, so he quickly opened the plastic bag, counted the things, picked them up and stuffed them into his schoolbag.

This time, he no longer had any questions and started working on the computer.

The wireless network card was very slow. After a long while, Ge Danwei said, "I uploaded twelve websites, and the wireless network card has no traffic..."

The blond man said, "Go back and continue uploading. We need more than 20 websites."

"I promise!" Ge Danwei packed up his computer, put on his backpack and left the cold drink shop. After returning to the college, he went straight to the library and applied for a network interface in the network area here.

He continued with his previous work, took out his headset, connected it to the computer, and played the video again.

This time, Godanwei heard the explosion, as well as the voice-over of bystanders after the explosion subsided.

English with a Russian accent.

"This remote-controlled aircraft is not only useful for blowing up tanks, but also for fortresses."

"A T72 tank attacked from above. Just one tank destroyed it."

“A few thousand dollars can easily blow up millions of dollars. It’s a great deal.”

"Try a Merkava or Abrams some other day."

Although it was a bit shocking to discuss such content, the Middle East was too far away from Myanmar, so Godanwei did not take it seriously and continued to upload it.

Considering that the compensation offered by the other party was generous enough, Ge Danwei uploaded it to more than 30 websites.

On the other side, the blond man found three other people who were doing computer repairs.

Driven by their money, the three made the same choice as Godanwei.

The next evening, a train from Mandalay to Yangon stopped at Yangon Railway Station.

The blond man's wig, fake beard, clothes, realistic gloves, etc. were all burned to ashes in a remote garbage station.

He changed his appearance, boarded a passenger ship and went to the equally chaotic Bangladesh.

Pengcheng, Huaqiangbei.

In a hotel conference room, Henderson, on behalf of West Coast Environmental Technology Company, formally signed a production contract for patrol fire alarm drones and fire bomb delivery drones with a local manufacturing company.

The new mayor of Los Angeles is a relative of the Ferguson family and was able to run for office because of the strong support of Hawke and Bryan.

After taking office, he immediately asked the fire department to place a new large order with West Coast Environmental Technology Company.

Firefighting drones are one of the major items.

Another part of the drones will be transferred to Hurricane Company and Butterfly Company.

Henderson shook hands with the person in charge of the production side and said, "Mr. Wang, I hope you can complete these orders on time."

The young man wearing glasses was named Wang Tao, who looked less than 30 years old. He replied, "Please rest assured that we will complete the task with guaranteed quality and quantity."

The two sides exchanged contracts and Wang Tao left with his team.

Back at the factory, he went to the workshop and discussed subsequent production and manufacturing matters with a group of engineers and technicians.

The total orders for 1 drones and related accessories will enable Wang Tao's company to survive the most difficult period in its early stages.

At the end of the on-site meeting, Wang Tao emphasized: "We must fully understand the American technology and create our own brand!"

The people here never lack the courage to fight, nor the determination to develop.

Wang Tao returned to the office and started thinking about another thing: finding new customers besides the Americans.

Huaqiangbei’s electronic business connects with the world.

The deputy came in with a laptop and said, "Brother Tao, take a look at this video. Yahoo China forwarded it from the Internet."

Wang Tao leaned over to take a look. The architectural style shown in the video looked like that of the Arabs in the Middle East.

An ordinary drone flew from the sky, crashed into the building and exploded. The building and the cars inside were all destroyed.

The explosion subsided and an English conversation was heard.

Although he spoke with a heavy accent, Wang Tao and his deputy could understand him.

The conversation ended and the video went black. Wang Tao replayed it and pressed pause at the moment the drone rushed down.

The two of them were in perfect sync and looked at each other at the same time.

The deputy reminded Wang Tao to watch the video because he had a related idea and said, "This should be a good sales channel, and the market is very large."

As the boss of a company, Wang Tao considered it more comprehensively: "Don't forget whose sphere of influence is over there. If we really want to deal with tanks or armored vehicles, it will definitely be the poor against the rich."

The bald eagle now stands at the highest point in the world, looking down coldly at every country, making it impossible to ignore it.

The deputy still didn't want to give up: "We can't stop making money just because of those bastards, right?"

Wang Tao has already thought about it: "Huaqiangbei has no shortage of people who dare to take risks. We can find agents or middlemen from Huaqiangbei to split our products into parts and quietly sell them to the Middle East in the form of parts."

"Good idea!" the deputy agreed.

Wang Tao added: "I heard that a factory in eastern Shandong sold a lot of seamless steel pipes to the Middle East through a woman. You can go and find out more about it. We can learn from them."

Although production has not officially started, the channel must be opened up. He said: "The woman is in Huaqiangbei, send someone to learn from her."

The deputy said, "Let me take someone over there."

…………

On the eastern coast of the Mediterranean, inside a very ordinary building.

Sinwal came back from training outside, carrying an AKM on his back, and entered the underground workshop.

Here, a large number of imported seamless steel pipes are being processed by machine tools.

The process closest to Sinwal was to add a delta tail to the steel tube to increase stability during flight. Sinwal went to a nearby room, untied the rifle on his back, washed his face, and sat in front of a laptop.

As one of the few people in the resistance organization who has received higher education, in addition to normal training, he also has to communicate with the outside world through the Internet to purchase much-needed supplies.

Sinwal is fluent in multiple languages ​​and has logged into online chat and communication software in many countries.

A Russian user sent a video via Skype.

Sinvar clicked on the video and his eyes widened after watching it, as if he had discovered something remarkable. He picked up the internal phone beside him and dialed it, saying, "Director, I received a very special video. They used a low-cost weapon that can attack and destroy main battle tanks. It's not an anti-tank rocket launcher..."

The person on the other side said, "Come over here right now."

Sinwal immediately rushed to the factory director's office.

In Afghanistan, not too far away from here, several men who have seen the video are herding a flock of sheep away from the roadside on the outskirts of Kabul.

On a nearby road, a convoy of Humvee armored vehicles and Stryker infantry fighting vehicles was returning to the military camp.

There are many Abrams tanks parked in the military camp.

A man who was herding sheep turned his gaze away from the convoy and said, "The top armor of infantry fighting vehicles and main battle tanks is a weak point in defense."

The short guy next to him looked like his child: "If it's really like what's shown in the video, and they can directly attack the cooling vents of the tank, all they need is a small plane with rockets to bring a main battle tank to its knees."

The man scratched his head: "It's a pity we can't make it."

The short man made up his mind: "Buy! Buy from the Russians, buy from the Indians, buy from the Iranians..."

Such a cost-effective offensive weapon will definitely surprise Americans!
…………

Sacramento, California.

Hundreds of reporters gathered on the lawn in front of the governor's residence.

Brian held Jennifer's hand and walked to the microphone together to give his inaugural speech.

In the VIP seats below, Hawke and Erica sat in the first row, with Brian's parents and Jennifer's parents next to them.

Later, Steve Nutter and representatives of various forces supporting Bryan also arrived.

The one with a big bald head is Jeff Bezos of Amazon.

The only thing that surprised Hawke was that Walt Disney, who had just replaced his chairman and CEO, also sent a representative.

One character Hawke has memory of is Robert Egger.

The new head of Disney sat to the left of Steve Nutter and spoke a few words from time to time.

When the Donkey Party was in control, Disney was a staunch supporter of the Donkey Party.

But California turned red again, especially as the California Donor Party was nailed to the pillar of shame, Disney made an unwavering U-turn.

Support whoever suits your interests.

Brian spoke passionately about his policy plans and reforms for California, which will further support technology companies.

At the end of the speech, there was warm applause.

Bryan also prepared a reception luncheon at the Governor's Mansion.

Hawke and others entered the banquet hall together. Bezos specifically called Mary Ferguson and asked her to sit at the same table with Hawke.

He came here just to see Hawke. While waiting for his meal to be served, he said, "I recently checked Amazon's dynamics and found out that your investment fund has bought a lot of Amazon shares in the secondary market?"

Hawke said directly: "There are no investment opportunities in the primary market, so we can only start in the secondary market."

Bezos took note and said, “If Amazon raises funds later, I’ll let you know.”

He had a reason for saying this: "How about we both enter into in-depth cooperation on advertising? We can push each other forward."

Hawke said, "Send someone to Los Angeles to negotiate."

Bezos clinked glasses with Hawke: "It's a pleasure to work with you."

At the end of lunch, Steve Nutter came over with Robert Iger.

The three of them went to a nearby lounge together.

Robert Iger said: "Disney has been paying close attention to the minority movement and is willing to join the equal rights movement and fully cooperate with the minority rights protection association."

Steve added: "Bob plans to include some minority characters in Disney's movies."

For now, the LGBTQ movement is in Hawke's interest, so he said: "This is a good thing. We, the companies and groups with social responsibility, should do something for social fairness, justice and freedom."

He said it very beautifully: "My foundation and I have been providing Steve with practical financial assistance. Twitter has also been vigorously promoting the Occupy San Francisco movement and has been helping Philip get justice. But these are far from enough. If you, Disney, are willing to join us and promote this great cause from the perspectives of film, television and animation, we will definitely be able to push society a big step forward."

Steve listened to Hawke's words and repeated them in his mind. When he faced other companies or social groups, he could copy them.

Robert Iger has been following the Occupy San Francisco movement since last year. The LGBTQ group started from Southern California and, with the influence of the Philip incident, went north to occupy San Francisco and set off a wave of movements across the United States.

This movement has a much greater impact than the Beatles movement back then and has become a social trend.

Robert Iger comes from a media background and has always believed that social conditions affect movies: "I have the same idea. In fact, from Jack Sparrow, the protagonist of the Pirates of the Caribbean series, we can see that Disney is also promoting this movement."

The captain was a sissy and many of his daily behaviors were androgynous.

It is quite convincing when brought up in this kind of occasion.

Hawke asked, “Are there any plans for this in the future?”

"Of course." Robert Iger is a typical manager who will not miss any profitable opportunity: "Disney has made relevant adjustments to multiple film and television projects. The plans will be released soon. I will ask you and Steve for some practical guidance then."

Steve continued, "That's not a problem. If you need help from the rights protection organization, feel free to contact me."

The LGBTQ movement will inevitably grow further in the coming years, but for Hawke, that’s not enough.

He said: "Disney can also consider adding gay characters or third gender characters in the animation field."

Steve is the spiritual leader of the LGBTQ community. He understood immediately and said, "Our new generation will accept these concepts from an early age. When they grow up to be the backbone of society, the so-called discrimination and injustice will inevitably disappear."

Robert Iger looked at Steve first, then at Hawke, and thought to himself, these are two crazy people!

Especially Hawke, he couldn't help but complain: Is this what you call social responsibility?
Robert Iger had these thoughts in mind, but he could not show them on the surface. He also had to express his agreement. He put on an extremely serious face and said, "What you said makes sense. As a responsible corporate group, Disney will definitely set an example in this regard."

“Hopefully we can come to a point where we can agree on more,” Hawke said.

Robert Iger: “Yes.”

The three chatted for a while and then left.

Coming out of the lounge, Hawke found Brian very busy and did not go over to disturb him.

Bryan has officially taken office as the Governor of California. Next week, Hawke himself and two teams from Twitter will come to Sacramento to discuss how to better promote the development of California.

The premise of all this, of course, is that he can gain real benefits from many aspects such as California's finances and taxation.

The next time Hawke saw Robert Iger, the head of Walt Disney was talking to Tom Cruise and Eric Eason.

It's probably about how to incorporate more Hollywood movie elements into the LGBTQ movement.

Hawke's mention of Disney animation was not a casual remark.

Bryan will soon announce some measures to promote the LGBTQ movement in California, including in areas such as marriage, law and education.

Especially in terms of education, this is similar to adding such elements to cartoons.

This time, Bryan was elected, and the LGBTQ community was the vanguard at the forefront, so naturally they must be rewarded.

Hawke is also pushing this behind the scenes because these are all about digging up America's roots.

Young people represent the future of a country.

Hawke had asked Edward and Steve to make some preparations in advance.

The Compton Foundation and the Rights Protection Association have dedicated personnel who are currently training a group of drag and transgender queens.

When Brian's bill is passed, these queens will regularly enter California's elementary and middle schools to teach American students. (End of this chapter)
