The Wolf of Los Angeles.

Coast Building, Los Angeles.

Edward hurried into Hawke's office and said, "Boss, I just received news from Hurricane Company headquarters that they discovered a group of militants monitoring the Hurricane base, and then used drones to attack the militants, killing seven people on the spot, seriously injuring one person and capturing him alive."

Hawke was prepared for retaliation after taking out the Waspan base, so he interrupted, "How are the casualties on the Hurricane side?"

“Apart from a number of suicide drones, there were no other losses,” Edward said.

He further said: "According to the confessions of the captured militants, they were from the Vaspan private security company. They were out on a mission at the time and missed our attack. A few months ago, they received an order to find the attackers at the Vaspan base under the leadership of a man named Jose. After several months of investigation, they tracked them to Limon, but just three days after arriving, they were discovered by Bosque's unmanned reconnaissance aircraft through the screening system."

"It's a great job using both the drone and the system Twitter developed," Hawke said.

Edward handed the information faxed by Limon to Hawke, and then said, "There are two more secret sentries who escaped Hurricane's attack. Their whereabouts are currently unknown. Hurricane Company is searching for them."

Hawke didn't take the two fish that slipped through the net seriously and said, "Write back to Bosk and reward the participants."

Hawke knew very well why these people followed him and fought to the death.

It is necessary to paint a beautiful future, but it is even more necessary to provide practical rewards.

Edward added: "Some of the drones were damaged. Bosque said that if possible, it would be best to add more drones."

Hawke nodded slightly. "Contact Henderson and ask him to send some of the environmental protection company's inventory to him... Well, inform Bosk and ask him to wait patiently for a few months. A large number of drones will arrive soon."

Henderson has returned from the other side of the Pacific Ocean and has negotiated a new drone order. Small drones are nearly twenty times cheaper than those in the United States, so there is no problem using them as disposable weapons.

As long as someone wants to use high-end fighting methods against Twitter and Hawke, Hawke dares to use a sea of ​​drones to carry out a blanket attack.

The biggest problems now are, first, that drone technology is far from being as mature as it will be in a decade or so, and second, that without satellites and large signal transmitters for control, the control distance of drones is limited.

As for satellites, even if everything goes well with the acquisition of Surrey Satellite Company, it will not be a task that can be completed in the short term.

It will take at least until the year after next to complete the acquisition, sort out internal work, and then build the satellite and launch it.

Hawke then instructed Edward: "Let Lucat and the others collect information about satellite manufacturers and launchers."

Edward went to the assistant's office.

The largest satellite manufacturer in the United States today is Intelsat, which was fully privatized in 2001.

Hawke asked Twitter to contact the other party to inquire about the relevant communications satellite business.

Work was not busy at the moment, so after finishing the work at hand, Hawke watched a video on the Internet.

Videos of suicide drone attacks on Arabic-style buildings in the Middle East are now circulating all over the internet.

In the video section of Twitter, it even made it into the top 100 in terms of views that month.

These videos should catch the attention of those who are interested.

In the future in the Middle East, we may frequently see Merkava and Abrams being canned.

When getting off work, the driver of the bulletproof Mercedes-Benz sedan was replaced by Raul.

Hawke closed the car door and asked, "Has everything in Southeast Asia been sorted out?"

"They were all uploaded by local people in Myanmar, Bangladesh and India." Raul gave a brief account: "The surveillance there is negligible, and the grassroots management of society is almost non-existent. Finally, they were transferred from India to South America. There are many places that even the CIA cannot investigate."

The more stable the social order in a country or region, the easier it is to investigate certain things.

It is easier to hide in places with large populations where the lower classes are not treated as human beings.

In a strange place like India, as long as you can withstand the test of dizziness...

Hawke couldn't help but look at Raul and found that his cheekbones were exposed because of his thinness.

Raul smiled sheepishly and said, "I got sick in India. I had gastroenteritis and was delayed for a while."

Hawke saw that he was getting so thin that he was almost unrecognizable, so he said, "Take a break starting tomorrow."

Raul started the car and left the Coast Building.

After sending Hawke back to Beverly Hills, Raul and Morientes made the handover and prepared to rest for half a month.

He spent a week in India and it was like crawling out of purgatory.

Raul still remembers the moment he came out of the New Delhi airport. The overwhelming stench was comparable to the dirtiest public toilet in Los Angeles.

He vowed never to go to India again if it was not necessary.

Raul now understood why his boss did not hire any Indian employees.

Because each one of them is a nuclear weapon, and it smells like shit.

…………

San Francisco, Santa Clara County.

In an area located on the edge of Silicon Valley, the Indian Mutual Aid Association was officially established today.

The leader of the mutual aid society is Gerard, a British man, but he has always claimed that his great-grandfather was an Indian and went to Britain after World War I, and he himself has always been a devout believer in Hinduism.

Gerard received funding from an overseas foundation and established this organization specifically to help immigrants or college graduates, collectively known as Indians in the United States, to gain a foothold in Silicon Valley and the California technology industry.

Except for himself, all other members of the Mutual Aid Society were Indians.

In particular, the two vice presidents, Singh and Rajput, are both veterans who have worked in Silicon Valley for many years.

Gerrard followed the above instructions and showed great trust in them.

After Singh and Rajput came to power, they recruited a group of Indian braggarts to serve in the mutual aid society without any hint from Gerard.

Gerard has been training these Indians for some time. At the beginning, he thought he needed to instill some concepts and brainwash them.

It turned out that Indians were much more united in this regard than he had imagined.

They would only recruit and help Indians.

As the Mutual Aid Association was officially established, some Indians looking for jobs in San Francisco were attracted by the promotional advertisements and walked into the Mutual Aid Association building.

In a business car on the roadside, Pierce Madden, chairman of the Osmond Charitable Foundation, was looking at the mutual aid association. A large number of Indians were coming in and out of the door, making it very lively.

The situation is better than expected.

Pierce took out his cell phone, called Gerrard, and said, "Things are good."

Gerard asked quickly: "Chairman, are you here?"

"I won't go there." Pierce reminded emphatically: "Remember, you are serving the Indians, you have to put yourself in their shoes."

Gerrard said: "I am now a high-caste Indian who believes in Hinduism. It's just because of my blood relationship that I look more like a pure white person."

"Hold on." Pierce hung up the phone and asked the driver to drive away.

Inside the office building, Gerard stood in front of the second-floor window and looked into the lobby on the first floor. There were at least dozens of Indians coming to the mutual aid association to consult about business.

Outside the gate, Bannerjee glanced at the golden sign of the mutual aid society and walked in with some trepidation.

As soon as he entered the hall and smelled the familiar curry body odor, his originally nervous mood instantly relaxed a lot.

Free consultation is available here.

Holding an advertisement leaflet, Banerjee asked his compatriots wearing red vests of the Mutual Aid Society: "I heard that this place can help introduce jobs?"

The red vest looked at Banerjee and said, "What's your name? Where are you from?"

"My name is Banerjee, and I'm from New Delhi." Banerjee quickly introduced himself: "I have been working in programming. I used to work in Los Angeles, but later I heard that there are more opportunities in Silicon Valley, so I came here."

The red vest took Bannerjere's materials, assigned him a number, and pointed to a few rows of benches: "Wait for your number to be called."

Banerjee went over and sat down. On the wall opposite, there was a slogan: Indians helping Indians!
After waiting for half an hour, the electronic voice called Bannerjee's number.

Banerjee entered a nearby office. Vice President Rajput asked Banerjee about his situation and career aspirations, and recommended him a position at Sadieth.

This company has cooperation with military-industrial enterprises, and Rajput's fellow villager has just been promoted to head of the human resources department.

Banerjee scratched his head: "I have never done these jobs."

Rajput asked him, "Can you make a PPT?"

"Yes, I am very skilled at it." Indian talents in the United States are the best at making PPTs, and they make them very beautiful. Banerjee is no exception: "I have studied and trained in this area."

Rajput rushed out a document and handed it to him: "Go back and take a good look at it, and make a nice PPT for joining the company. I will contact the HR department there in advance and transfer your information to them."

“What do you need me to do?” Banerjee asked.

Rajput first waved his hands and said, "Indians help Indians!" Then he said, "In order to help more Indians in the future, you can donate some money to the Mutual Aid Association... By the way, the Mutual Aid Association is a non-profit organization, and the money will be used for our compatriots here."

"I will donate one month's salary!" Banerjee will wait until he starts working.

Rajput nodded: "You can go now. Remember to go to Sadis on time next Monday."

As Banerjee left, another Indian man walked into the office.

Before its formal establishment, the Indian Mutual Aid Association did a lot of work. For every Indian recruited, they mobilized their own connections and contacted some Indian executives, including those from Silicon Valley companies.

The practice that Indians have formed in North America over the years also means that these people will give priority to Indians when recruiting subordinates.

San Francisco is the headquarters of the Indian Mutual Aid Association, but there are also branches in other cities in North America.

For example, New York, Montgomery, Maryland, where Lockheed Martin is headquartered, Chicago where Boeing is located, Washington State where the super aircraft factory is located, and Houston where NASA is located, etc.

The slogan of the mutual aid association is Indians helping Indians, and its goal is to encourage more Indians to enter America's electronic information, semiconductor and high-end manufacturing industries, and strive to make them the backbone.

But there is one company in Silicon Valley that is different.

LinkedIn, a company engaged in online social media business, will completely ignore Indians in subsequent recruitment.

Because after several months of negotiations, LinkedIn founder Constant reached an agreement with Reid Hoffman, who represented Twitter, on many acquisition matters.

There are not many Indian employees within LinkedIn, so there is no need to specifically lay them off.

Twitter will acquire 37.13% of LinkedIn's shares for US$ billion, thereby gaining absolute control over LinkedIn.

Constant retains a little over 10 percent of the shares as the second-largest shareholder and remains LinkedIn's CEO.

But the board will be fully controlled by Twitter.

Similarly, LinkedIn's professional profile database, as well as systems such as "recommendations" and "member connections," will also fall into Twitter's hands.

This part of the system meets the needs of Hawke's promotion plan. It can not only effectively promote the Indian Mutual Aid Association plan, but also initiate federal network communication projects.

LinkedIn is a professional social platform built with the workplace at its core, and is more suitable for marketing to the federal government than Twitter.

Of course, the two technologies have their own advantages and disadvantages, and will complement each other to a certain extent.

This is one of the main reasons why Constant ultimately chose Twitter instead of companies like Pacific Electric.

Compared with traditional energy companies, Twitter, also an Internet company and technology upstart, is more in line with LinkedIn's future development needs and Constant's own interests.

Silicon Valley bigwigs such as Reid Hoffman and Peter Thiel played a key role in the negotiations.

Constant will also join the technological revolution camp.

Although Twitter and LinkedIn have not yet reached a written agreement, with Twitter squeezing Pacific Electric out, little will change.

The Donkey Gang in San Francisco has been completely suppressed in California, and its sphere of influence has shrunk to the surrounding areas of San Francisco.

But even in the LGBTQ base in San Francisco, the situation remains grim, and the occupation movement has continued.

San Francisco wanted to request the National Guard to clear the area, but former Governor Arnold Schwarzenegger vetoed it, and current Governor Brian Ferguson will not agree to it either.

Gavin Newson had another way, which was to use special provisions of the law to let President George Walker directly mobilize the National Guard and Marines to enter Los Angeles to clear the area.

Unfortunately, George Walker was a relative and political ally of the Ferguson family.

There is only one way for Gavin Newson: support the candidate of the Democratic Party, take back the White House, and then issue a presidential order to mobilize the National Guard or the Marines.

In Gavin Newson's mansion in the North Bay Area of ​​San Francisco.

Sibel personally brought tea and coffee and sent them into the study.

"Thank you." Senator Barbara Boxer took a cup of black tea and continued the previous topic: "Guan Hai and Hillary each have their own advantages and disadvantages. The former is black, and the latter is a woman who has never been elected to the White House in the United States. The prospects for next year's election are unpredictable."

Gavin Niu Sen was quite critical of this: "Why didn't anyone else stand up?"

Barbara shook her head: "The situation of the Democratic Party has not been good in recent years. They even lost California, which had the most electoral votes."

She sighed deeply and said something more practical: "Guanhai has cooperated with BlackRock for many times, but the current BlackRock is no longer the BlackRock of the past. The Ferguson family, Hawke Osmond and Goldman Sachs firmly control the current BlackRock."

Gavin frowned: "Goldman Sachs likes to hedge its bets."

"But they support the Elephant Party now. The former chairman and CEO of Goldman Sachs is now George Walker's Treasury Secretary." Barbara took a sip of her tea and said, "The new chairman and CEO of Goldman Sachs, as well as most of the board members, will still support the Elephant Party."

She put down her teacup and continued, "BlackRock developed a minority plan for Guanhai, but it failed. Now the plan has become the Elephant Party... To be more precise, it is the plan of Hawke Osment and Brian Ferguson. Minorities are standing on the opposite side of the Donkey Party. Guanhai has lost an important propaganda point! Besides, a considerable part of his black base has been taken away by Steve Nutter. It is meaningless for us to support Guanhai. His chances of getting the party nomination are getting lower and lower."

Collaboration is not just about who will win, Gavin asked, "Is Silaree willing to work with us?"

Barbara said: "I took the initiative to talk to Hillary twice, and Hillary has decided to fully cooperate with California."

Gavin thought about it and said, "California cooperates with Xilali, and Guanhai's chances of winning are even lower."

Barbara's base is women's rights.

Similarly, women's rights is one of Hillary's bases.

There is a natural basis for cooperation between the two sides.

The LGBTQ movement and the feminist movement have become mortal enemies known to everyone in the United States.

Gavin said: "Choose a suitable opportunity to invite Hillary to California. Our cooperation with her must be made public."

Barbara responded, "I will visit Hillary again when I return to Washington. She needs us."

Sibel acted as a servant, pouring tea for the two from time to time and never saying a word.

Coast Building, Los Angeles.

After Lucat contacted several satellite manufacturing companies including the International Telecommunications Satellite Organization, he reported to Hawke: "We have had detailed talks with three North American satellite manufacturers and two European companies. The fastest company takes 11 months to complete the manufacturing of a communications satellite."

Hearing this efficiency, Hawke frowned slightly. It was much worse than Musk's Starlink efficiency in his previous life.

Lucat added: "Even if we pay more, they can't speed up, because there are more than 100 downstream suppliers of communication satellites, many of which are international manufacturers. Some of their rare metal raw materials are heavily dependent on imports from Asia..."

Hawke nodded, "I see."

The satellites used by Twitter must be specially customized.

America's high-end manufacturing industry is highly dependent on international cooperation, and many parts are imported.

However, in the eyes of many people on the other side of the Pacific Ocean, as long as the product is assembled in the United States, it is completely made in the United States.

Their locally manufactured products, even if the steel balls for the ballpoint pens used for writing are imported during the production process, are still dependent on imports.

In Hawke's previous life, the jewels in the industrial crown moved from ballpoint pen rollerballs to electric kettle cards, and then to tape and lighter pads.

Those dogs who don't need money to feed themselves and who eat shit voluntarily, painstakingly search through the corners of industry, using microscopes to find the most remote and least valuable crown jewels. (End of this chapter)
