Chapter 878 Morgan's Ideas
"Heh, it seems these guys have really angered John, that little fox. I told you, don't try to stir up trouble like this, but those guys didn't take it seriously. Now, things have spiraled out of control. John's counterattack has given those oil capitalists a real treat. The more arrogant they were before, the more pathetic they'll be now. And this time, their credibility is completely destroyed; they can't manipulate the public anymore. A bunch of self-righteous fools, thinking they really control the American media and the American discourse—what a joke! The previous setbacks haven't woken them up yet; now it's time to make them wake up!"

As he spoke, Morgan sneered repeatedly, a hint of disdain flashing in his eyes. He was very dismissive of these arrogant oil tycoons, and these guys would need the strength and ability to stand up to John.

"Those oil giants are indeed too arrogant, trying to embarrass John. Now, they're the ones who're embarrassed. And with this news coming out on all the major TV stations, they'll immediately become the target of everyone's criticism. I wonder what Elephant will do. They'll definitely retaliate this time. I'm really looking forward to their big battle. However, I don't understand if John really wants to move Legendary Entertainment and Phoenix Media to Oregon. If he does, then the situation is a bit too crazy, those guys are in danger, and the whole of Hollywood will be thrown into turmoil."

"It's possible he has such thoughts. Don't underestimate John's determination. You've seen that he relocated the entire global navigation company. What else do you think he can't do? I wouldn't be surprised if he relocated Nvidia and Dreamworld next. And I believe no one would refuse if he asked. Who wouldn't want to reduce costs? That means everyone's income will increase. And California does have advantages, that's true, but those advantages aren't that obvious yet. Silicon Valley is good, but the departure of the two giants has a bigger impact, not to mention John's even more impressive layout in Silicon Valley."

"No way, the White House wouldn't allow John to do that, and if he did, it would be a heavy blow to the entire Silicon Valley. I believe no one wants to see that happen." At this moment, Jimmy was shocked and couldn't believe his boss's words. If such a big thing happened, the consequences would be severe.

"No, nothing is impossible. If John wants it, it can happen. Besides, Oregon isn't without universities; it can easily support one or two semiconductor giants, as well as software giants. However, if it really comes to that, someone in California has to step up and take responsibility, someone has to pay the price. Most importantly, this little fox John will have an even better excuse to complain to the public and shirk all responsibility. It's not that he doesn't want to invest in the US, but that someone has been preventing it all along. What do you think the public will think if this topic comes up?"

"Hiss! This is insane! This is going to be a huge disaster. If it really comes to this, those oil-rich capitalists will pay a heavy price and may even face a boycott from the public. It's possible that someone will incite further trouble and cause the entire United States to turn against oil-rich capitalists. Haven't those guys considered that things might get out of their control?"

"Heh, how could they not have thought of that? They've just been too arrogant, thinking everything was under their control, thinking they were the gods. In John's eyes, they're nothing. They dare to dream of targeting John? They're just overthinking it. If they had launched a full-scale attack from the beginning, perhaps they might have succeeded, but now it's too late. They don't have that ability anymore. If they insist on forcing things, they'll only pay a heavy price. Just watch, Baridyl will become a victim in no time."

"This is insane. Baridil was their doing. Now that something's happened, they're sacrificing him. Who will trust them or cooperate with them in the future? Even if they sacrifice Baridil, it won't matter. John won't back down. It's going to be a bloody battle. John definitely won't let it go."

"John will naturally not give up easily, but John also needs to compromise, not with the oil giants, but with everyone. The United States cannot afford to be in chaos right now; at least no one wants to see chaos in the United States!"

“Boss, I’m afraid things won’t go as they want. The Nidrogin incident has had a huge impact, and the forces behind it aren’t just oil and gas companies; there are other people involved, and it’s even possible that it’s related to the election. Under these circumstances, even if the White House steps in, they can’t solve the problem. California won’t listen to them.”

“I know all that you’re saying, but so what? You think the White House can’t solve the problem, but others can’t? You’re underestimating Donkey’s abilities and those guys’ willingness to compromise. As long as they don’t have the upper hand, they’ll definitely compromise. John won’t keep fighting like this; there’s no need. The existence of oil capital allows him to thrive in the US and among the Middle Eastern tycoons, gaining more benefits. If that little fox John wanted to target oil capital, he would have done it long ago, instead of waiting until now. Those guys want to target John, but how do they know John isn’t hoping for this situation? What could make him happier than being targeted by oil capital?” Jimmy thought about it carefully, and it really was true. As long as John remained an enemy of oil capital, those Middle Eastern tycoons would fully support him. As long as John had the resources, they would cooperate, and it would become increasingly intense.

"Boss, isn't John afraid of things going wrong? Besides, I don't believe those Middle Eastern tycoons are blind to all this. They can't possibly really trust this little fox John, after all, he's not a good person either!"

"Good guy? Who's the good guy in the business world? And so what if the Middle Eastern tycoons know? Do you think they'd turn against John? If you think that way, you're being too naive. The Middle Eastern tycoons are fully aware of everything and understand John's intentions, but it's very beneficial to them, so naturally they're happy to see it. However, I've heard that John's cooperation with the Middle Eastern tycoons is growing larger and larger, even involving water purification plants, as well as sugar and fertilizer. What are those guys trying to do with so many orders? Have we found out anything?"

"No, it's all just normal cooperation. It's just that the quantity is a bit large, but it's nothing to the rich. It's just that some people are unwilling to accept it. John's layout in Southeast Asia is too powerful now, especially the steel mills. The quality is improving rapidly. With the technology from the Russians, their development is also getting faster and faster. In particular, they have now mastered the production of special steel. Fortunately, it's only in Taiwan, but it still has a great impact."

"What will Rockefeller and his cronies do? And what will the White House think about this? Surely they won't have any reaction at all. Besides, I have a feeling there's something wrong with what John said. He must have discovered something that we don't know. Maybe things will really get out of control!"

"No way, it's just a small matter. John himself said that there's no need for everyone to care. Besides, Legendary Entertainment and Phoenix Group have been promoting it, so nothing should happen. Now that John has made such a fuss, even if those guys have some ideas, they should restrain themselves!"

Upon hearing Jimmy's words, Morgan shook his head and said, "You always oversimplify things. It would be a problem if it really ended here. Do you think those guys, having already done all that, will give up just because of John's counterattack? Or do you think those guys from Donald's group will give up their campaign? Just watch, this won't end here. It just means no one will interfere for a while, but once the storm passes, someone will make their move."

Although I don't want to believe it, upon careful consideration of the situation in the United States, it is indeed possible. After all, next year is an election year, and anything can happen. This incident could very well be part of a pre-election maneuver.

"So what do we do? Now that John is back, shouldn't we talk to him? Many people are eager to sit down and talk with John. If we do nothing, I'm worried that those guys will try to win John over. After all, many people are very interested in Hughes Aerospace's GPS system. I heard they're preparing for the third phase of their plans. I don't know if it's true, and I've also heard that Middle Eastern tycoons are willing to cooperate with them."

"It's those oil-rich capitalists causing trouble again. They're worried that Hughes Aerospace will continue to cooperate with Middle Eastern tycoons. The power displayed by these tycoons in this Middle Eastern war has terrified them. Gulfstream Aerospace's capabilities have exceeded their expectations. Their drones, helicopters, and fighter jets have all performed well, and even Bentley's armored vehicles are quite impressive. Now they're scared, so they want to stop Hughes's discovery. It's laughable that they think they can control everything. It's a joke. They seem to have forgotten that Gulfstream Aerospace is also an important member of the US military-industrial complex! Now they want to sabotage John and stop Gulfstream Aerospace's cooperation with Middle Eastern tycoons. It's a huge joke. What qualifications do they have? If they're so capable, why don't they develop the same global positioning system themselves!"
