"I'm here on behalf of my father. Don't you know? Mobil Oil Company has two refineries and a plastics factory here. I'm on vacation, so he asked me to come and take a look. I'll also donate on his behalf. "
Dacia clinked glasses with Angela and then took the initiative to shake hands with Li Mochen. "I know you. You're Andre Lee Wildenstein, the hottest fighting star on the East Coast. I'm Dacia Rockefeller, Angela's classmate at Star Lineage Elite Academy. I'm a fan of yours. Those few matches were very beautiful. "
Li Mochen raised his eyebrows slightly, thinking that he really had a great background. The Rockefellers were a family that had risen to prominence 200 years ago. They were once the richest family in the world. In the present age, although the family had been split up many times and invested most of its assets into various charity funds, it was still one of the most powerful families in Amelia.
However, this person was easygoing and did not have the arrogance of a typical rich family. Li Mochen did not dislike him.
But as soon as Dacia finished speaking, someone behind him sneered. "He's just a mixed-blood. He's only a little famous recently. I don't know what the Civic Party is thinking. They actually invited this guy here. He's not even a professional. The Civic Party's style is getting lower and lower. You think too highly of him, Dacia. "
Dassia frowned and glanced coldly behind her. Then, she smiled and said, "Heh! Everyone, I want to talk to my idol and classmate Angie. Can you give us some privacy? "
The group of boys and girls looked at each other and then dispersed helplessly. After everyone left, Dacia said apologetically, "Andre, please don't mind them. They are my playmates who came to Atlanta on their own accord. I don't even know the names of many of them. There's no need to care about them. They're just dumb and uninformed idiots. Even I, a Manhattanite, know that you've already bought the Georgia Post. "
"It's okay."
Li Mochen really didn't mind. He wasn't so narrow-minded. He could tell that this young man named Dacia was being very sincere. Coincidentally, he was looking for the Rockefeller consortium to attract venture capital for his company. But at that moment, he saw Nanette Drew, who was not far away, raising his glass at him with a smile.
Li Mochen hesitated for a moment before putting down his glass. "I have something to do here. Excuse me."
After Li Mochen left, Dacia Rockefeller looked at his back with a strange expression. "Angie, you like this guy, right? We're boyfriend and girlfriend now, right? "
"Why are you asking this? It's none of your business. "Angela didn't answer.
"How can you say that it doesn't matter? Many people knew that Mr. Michelle had met with Wildenstein's Consuelo. The whole of Manhattan and the City of Atlanta were shocked by this news. Many people in my family want to know what's going on. I happen to be in the City of Atlanta. "
Dacia shrugged with a helpless expression. "This isn't just simple gossip. If that old man Wildenstein gets together with the Michelle Group, it may affect the political situation in America, so many people are paying attention. I'm under orders to find out — "
"No comment!"
Angela snorted, but her eyes never left Li Mochen's figure. "You know better than me what kind of person my father is. How would I know what he's thinking?"
"I think so too. But if your two families really have plans to unite by marriage, Angie, you won't object, right?"
Dacia's expression gradually turned solemn. "But Angie, you know what your future marriage will be like, right? Sorry, I don't mean to look down on him. André's talent is far above mine. His future isn't something a playboy like me can compare to. But Angie, do you think he can handle it now? "
Angela was silent. She thought of that night two days ago.
…
"When Ferguson spoke to you just now, boss, did he want you to sell the shares of the Georgia Post? And even threatened you? "
Nannet Drew was also invited this time. Due to his huge influence in the media world and his identity as the CEO of Rising Sun Publishing House, he was arranged to sit in the fifth row.
"With your strength, boss, you don't have to care too much about him. At most, you can just send him to meet the God of Light or hell with a bullet. "
Li Mochen couldn't help but be speechless. He stared blankly at Ms. Drew and thought, Are these really the words of a political chief editor and a future politician?
"Of course I'm joking. But since you have this ability, it's okay to give him a little warning. That guy is somewhat unscrupulous because he has some big shots backing him up. "
Nannet Drew led Li Mochen to a corner by the window. "I can guess what he's going to do to you, Boss. It's not a problem in general. I can help you resolve it and try my best not to affect your business. But we have to guard against him using any means possible. That would be equivalent to completely breaking off relations and starting a war with you. So, we might as well solve the problem from the beginning to prevent things from getting out of hand. Just like how you dealt with the Cardiff Corporation previously, we used blood and fire to intimidate the dissidents. But that's not enough. If we can use force to intimidate or destroy them, then there's no need to waste words, is there? In this era, public opinion is very powerful, but it's still no match for swords. "
Li Mochen couldn't help but sink into deep thought. It seemed that it was really necessary?
"You've moved me, Ms. Drew. But I feel that this method is no different from the triads?"
"There's never been a difference. The so-called upper class is just more powerful and then put on a layer of glamorous clothes. They're even crueler, more insidious, and more sinister than the triads. "
Ms. Drew smiled. "Have you heard of the Ludlow Massacre? That happened two hundred years ago. The Colorado Fuel and Iron Company controlled by the Rockefeller family sent out private forces equipped with armored vehicles and heavy machine guns, as well as the Colorado National Guard, to suppress the strike organized by the American Union of Miners in Colorado. After 14 hours of fierce fighting, hundreds of people were killed and injured. Hundreds of women and children were burned alive. Following that, it triggered a long civil war called "Colorado Guerrilla Warfare," which resulted in more than a thousand deaths. Some of Standard Oil's competitors were directly killed by the Rockefeller family's armed forces. But now, the Rockefeller family was a well-known philanthropist. No one dared to mention this matter in the newspapers, and the federal government didn't pursue any criminal charges. The Carnegie family was in the same situation. They even directly waved their butcher knives at their own workers. Even the Wildenstein family was no exception. Just twenty-seven years ago, you directly destroyed a family for the management rights of Port Vilon. "
"I'll consider it."
Li Mochen's eyes flashed, but he didn't comment.
"Of course, this is just my personal opinion."
Nannet Drew continued to give advice. "Apart from that, you can also seek some help from the Citizen Party and Ms. Yisolte. After all, you helped them block the swords of their competitors."
