America’s Road To Wealth

  Chapter 523 The future of the world is in my hands

At 9:30 in the evening, Abel looked at the time, restrained his smile, put the wine glass in his hand on the tray of a waiter passing by him, put his arms around Ikana's plump waist that had been a vase all night, and found The host, Jerry Brown, left the reception after leaving with an apology.

  When he came out, not only the owner Jerry Brown came out to see him off.

   Even the Zippertons, the good guy Jimmy, and Delin Schultz, Richard Gephardt, and Le Kewen Jones, the top leaders of the donkey party, all came out.

   This made the other participants of this dinner deeply aware that when the Donkey Party tried to win over this gentleman, it really didn't spare any effort, it can be said that it worked extremely hard.

  But now everyone is even more curious. After the banquet tonight, the actions of the donkey party and others spread.

  If they were found out by the Elephant Party, how would they feel?

   You know, although Abel Smith was born as an elephant who can no longer be like an elephant. But in the history of the United States, there is no shortage of big guys who jumped from donkeys to elephants, or from elephants to donkeys.

  If this person is really allowed to jump from the elephant to the donkey, then the elephant party will suffer a great loss.

  Even if everyone knows that this possibility is actually very small, no matter how small the possibility is, it is still a possibility.

  So many people think that after tonight, there is a high probability that Xiangdang will show some performance. As for what to do, I don't know.

  When Abel left the banquet scene, the moon was already in the sky, and the stars in the Los Angeles sky became brighter and brighter.

  The convoy left downtown Los Angeles and headed for Beverly Hills in Hollywood.

  In Beverly Hills, although it is already late at night, the lights are still brightly lit. Even if the luxurious villas are surrounded by vegetation, they cannot cover the bright area illuminated by outdoor spotlights.

On the mountain road, the Cadillac monster is not driving very fast. For the current Beverly Hills stars, the night may be just a time for various parties. From time to time, several convertible sports cars can be seen roaring down the mountain. You can also hear men and women laughing and clamoring unscrupulously.

  This is Hollywood, this is Beverly. It is the city of angels, attracting young men and women with star dreams from all over the world, flocking here to live their dreams.

  In the dim car, with the passing street lights shining, light and shadow flickered, making Abel's eyes brighter as he watched the scenery outside the window.

   "Stay away from that old woman, dear."

  Suddenly, Ikana heard him whisper.

   "Huh?" Ikana was startled.

   "Stay away from Sirani, she is very dangerous."

  It was only then that Ikana realized what he was talking about, and she immediately thought of how close the former First Lady, who was already a New York State Senator, was to her tonight.

   Combined with what Abel is saying now, she knows that this is Abel asking herself, a little bit away from the woman who has been promoted as a representative of outstanding women in the United States.

   There were some doubts and speculations in her heart, but she still nodded obediently: "Okay, I will listen to you."

  If her father was here, she would probably be surprised to see Ikana like this.

  Because his daughter has never been such a gentle and well-behaved character.

   This is actually very simple, who told Abel to be able to convince her in all aspects and all aspects.

  There are too many aspects. A smart woman like Ikana naturally knows what to do to maximize her interests.

  The convoy returned to DR10066, Siero, and it was already past 11 o'clock in the evening.

  Paris and the kids are asleep, and Ikana goes to take a shower and visit the kids first.

  Abel was in the living room, picked up the satellite phone, was silent for a while, and then dialed out.

   "Hey, Herbert. It's me calling you at this late hour and hoping not to make dear Barbara angry or hate me."

   "Ha..." Herbert's laughter just came from the phone, and at the same time came the old but gentle voice of little Laura's grandmother, Barbara Pierce Bush, the real family core of the Bush family:

   "If you don't call, he won't sleep. If you call earlier, he can go to bed earlier."

   "Hey—" Abel knew that Barbara was probably by Herbert's side now, and he said with a smile, "Okay, then I will try to make a long story short and let Herbert rest early."

  After talking about the gossip, Abel got straight to the point and told Herbert what happened tonight, including the conversation with those people, in detail.

   All along, Abel has shown Herbert as his important adviser in political affairs. Who told him that his father had just entered the political arena, and his grandfather had never been in the political arena in his life.

  Herbert is the only one who has experience and ability in this area, and he can trust him at the same time.

  Can't discuss these issues with think tanks?

  In the Smith Thinking Group, Abel guessed that there should be some spies. Some things still cannot be done by this group of people.

   Coupled with Abel's interests in this area, it can be said that he is highly integrated with the shrub family.

  Many things are done together by the two parties, so it has always been Abel's practice to consult Herbert about these issues that he is not good at.

   "They really value you very much." After listening to Abel's words, Herbert sighed softly:

"Hey—I have a bad feeling. I feel that the power of the Donkey Party is rapidly expanding. They have introduced many new supporters in our country. It is difficult for the Elephant Party to do this. Who is called the Elephant Party? Party supporters are generally the propertied class."

  Abel was a little surprised at the old man's sensitivity, because it was just like what Herbert said.

  The strength of the donkey party is indeed growing rapidly in this country.

  Here refers not only to the power of the top leaders of the two parties, but also to the changes in the supporters at the bottom of the donkey and elephant.

  Many times, this is actually related to the development of the US economy. The US economy has transformed from real to virtual, and finance dominates everything, which has brought about these changes.

  The latter ones are just the changes of cause and effect. . . .

   But it really has nothing to do with Abe, because he's diversified. He covers everything from media to energy, from industry to finance, and even the Internet.

   Whichever aspect of energy is enhanced, that aspect of energy can be utilized. His layout in this regard has long taken into account the changes in the strength of donkeys and elephants.

  If you don't take this into consideration, you will plan to take multiple insurances. He would not waste time and effort to let Neil come to California to develop, and even defected to the donkey party in a rebellious manner.

   "At present, it seems that they will support Neil with a high probability. So Herbert, I think it's time for Neil to officially stand up. There will definitely be shocks, but we can control it to a minimum."

  Abel said softly.

In the phone, Herbert agreed: "You are right, you have been preparing for so long. It is useless to say anything else, I hope Neil can grasp it. This is very important to all of us. There are benefits."

   "Then it's settled. Let me handle the matter, and you can help the party to take care of it."

  Abel spoke quickly: "That's it, you go to bed early. Otherwise, Barbara will blame me later."

"I don't."

  The voice of little Laura's grandmother came from the other side again, obviously she had been by the side just now.

  Abel is not surprised by this, because Abel knows that Barbara is different from other women in the bush family. This is a woman who really has great wisdom and can advise her husband.

  Herbert Bush has today's success, the Miss Pierce contributed a lot.

  Abel smiled, "Good night, Barbara, good night, Herbert."

  After hearing the old people's good night, he hung up the phone.

   Throwing the phone to Edward, Abel walked to the stairs on the second floor.

  He went to see little Andy first, and then Paris.

  She and Baby Barron are both asleep.

Only then did Abel walk to the master bedroom, and pushed open the door of the bedroom. The four eyes met. Ikana, with long blond hair and a dignified and charming manner, was supporting her head on her arms. She was only wearing a poor cloth dress A silk red nightdress with suspenders, lying halfway facing the door, with a faint smile on the corner of her mouth, a charming face, a pair of slender and slender long moon backs rubbing against each other from time to time, extremely xxx.

Looking at Ikana's pair of spring-like beautiful eyes that have already been foggy, and the neckline of the suspender nightgown has shown her more and more magnificent bust in front of her eyes, Abel narrowed his eyes into crescent moons, and made a few noises With the sound of "tsk tsk tsk", he closed the door casually, and while walking forward, he began to perform the special skill of shelling.

   "Honey, you look stunning!"

   "Hey, what are you waiting for..."

  Abel climbed onto Simmons, condescendingly looked at the glamorous Ikana affectionately, leaned over and kissed the red chun.

   This is destined to be another sleepless night.

   Maybe little Andy and little Alia's brothers and sisters will take shape tonight.

  Yu Ri.

  California sunshine has a kind of unexpected brightness, directness and magnanimity. The beautiful and huge floor-to-ceiling windows let the sunlight into the bedroom without any hindrance. It was so warm that the two who were still sleeping in each other's arms opened their sleepy eyes at the same time.

  Feeling the warm and broad embrace behind her, a sweet smile appeared on the corner of Ikana's mouth, the complexion on her face became more rosy, and the comfort of her whole body brightened her mood.

   Originally, her combat effectiveness in this area could not support Abel by herself.

  Even if she is already among Abel's women, the group with the strongest combat effectiveness belongs to the T0 level.

   Fortunately, she was still in the stage of raising her body, and Abel took pity on her, so in fact, these few nights, he was just doing enough.

   This made Ikana less tired, and she could recover quickly the next day, as usual.

   Unlike before, I have to sleep until noon every time to refresh myself.

  However... Sitting in front of the dressing table, Ikana looked in the mirror and looked at herself radiant without makeup, muttering happily:

   "I really can't do without his nourishment!"

  After muttering, she stretched out her hand to touch her moist and plump cheeks, and couldn't help sighing again in her heart.

Thinking of his cautious appearance, Ikana couldn't help chuckling, sometimes thinking that she had already given birth to two children before the age of 21, it was also an unbelievable feeling, maybe she really told her mother If so, I must be crazy.

  If you are not crazy, how can you do such a thing? But in fact, Ikana thinks that sometimes it is better to be crazy than to be crazy.

  At least for now, this kind of madness has brought him unimaginable benefits.

Picking up the eyebrow pencil to modify her very slender eyebrows, and applying a layer of pure natural transparent honey, she stood up, picked up a shawl from the side and put it on her body, she has been very careful Take care of your own health. After all, the weather in California is sunny but windy.

"I have other things to deal with today, tomorrow morning, do all the preparations in place, sign and pay directly tomorrow morning, tell them, let them settle Jerry Sanders, let this old man get out of management Layer, I don't want to see him at the signing tomorrow!"

Ikana, who was wearing a set of loose and comfortable cotton casual clothes and a shawl, walked down the stairs. She looked curiously at Abel, who was standing in the living room, holding a mobile phone, with a hint of impatience on his face. Talking on the phone in a cold voice.

  Seeing Ikana coming down, Abel's mouth turned up, his smile changed, he walked to her side, bowed his head and kissed her, then walked to sit on the sofa with his arms around her waist.

"Okay, okay, let the people of AMD handle the end by themselves, after all, the official handover has not yet begun. Although Jerry Sanders is the founder, he is old now and can't keep up with the times ...and he hates Texans, and I'm a Texan, and he's hating me as a boss. I'm rarely unhappy, but now Jerry Sanders succeeds. Tell them if you don't take Jay Make up for the part of the bank loan that Ray Sanders embezzled, even if they default, see you in court, that's it."

   As he spoke, Abel hung up the phone directly.

   "What's wrong? Are you so angry this morning?" Ikana came over and asked softly with concern.

"It's about the acquisition of a semiconductor company. The original founder and CEO of this semiconductor company, although doing a good job before, has done a bad job in the past few years. What's more serious is that this guy embezzled the company's The bank loan is used to develop other projects. And my negotiation with this company has been going on for several months. It may be unexpected to be engaged by this guy."

  In the past, Ikana probably only thought of Silicon Valley when she heard the word semiconductor.

  But now Ikana, because she wants to develop in the Internet or high-tech fields, she has been giving herself extra lessons during this time.

  Supplement and learn any knowledge and information related to the Internet or IT, or other high-tech industries.

  Ikana now knows that semiconductors refer to materials whose conductivity at room temperature is between conductors and insulators.

  It has applications in integrated circuits, consumer electronics, communication systems, photovoltaic power generation, lighting, high-power power conversion and other fields. For example, diodes are devices made of semiconductors.

   Simply put, Silicon Valley is built on semiconductor technology.

   "Which semiconductor company? It won't be... Intel?" In this year, well, it should be said that since the 1990s, the most famous semiconductor company has always been Intel.

   Abel shook his head, "Not Intel. I would like to buy it, but Intel won't sell it."

Today's Intel has a stock market value of more than 200 billion US dollars, with an annual profit of 70 to 8 billion US dollars, and more and more. It is more profitable than most Wall Street investment banks. It is a proper super cash girl, and you can buy it if you want. Got it.

   "It's AMD Semiconductor, with a market value of only about $5 billion."

   "Advanced Semiconductor? Oh, the company called AMD for short?"

"Yes."

   Ikana was curious, and she asked, "Honey, are you going to enter the semiconductor field?"

   That way, her development in it and the Internet should be smoother, because Abel has become stronger in these areas.

   "I want to merge AMD Semiconductor with Texas Instruments."

Abel explained casually: "I am in Texas Instruments, with about 25% of the shares. Once the merger between the two parties is successful, I will hold more than 40% of the new company's shares. This will allow me to better control the consortium. High-quality companies, and I am indeed optimistic about the future development of the semiconductor industry.”

  Texas Instruments is a semiconductor multinational company in Texas, famous for its development, manufacturing and sales of semiconductor and computer technology.

  It is an industry within the Texas Consortium. When the Smith Consortium merged with the Texas Consortium.

  Through stock exchange and cross-shareholding, Abel also got a part of Texas Instruments shares.

  Abel's "prophet" let him know that in the future, semiconductors will become more and more important in the economic field. The explosive development of this industry may have occurred in recent years.

  At the same time, these fields also belong to the industry, and they are still very profitable high-tech industries, which meet his requirements.

  In his own territory, raising a group of high-income supporters, he has been doing this.

   This is the basic disk that Abel intends to build for himself.

   Moreover, AMD is currently the only semiconductor company other than Intel that holds x86 patents. If it can merge with Texas Instruments, the two parties can play a very complementary role.

   This has a great effect on Abel's future planning in the Internet and mobile Internet.

  With the addition of Qualcomm, Abel now dares to shout to the world: "The future of the world is in my hands!"

   A semiconductor giant integrating R&D, manufacturing and communication patents, what kind of size it will have in the future, Abel is very happy just thinking about it.

   I am afraid that if it develops, there is a high probability that it will be anti-monopoly. But it doesn't matter, the big deal is to split it up and change the name.

  Rockefeller did this in the oil field.

  There is no need to tell Ikana about these future plans.

  She’s still going to be her social network queen. After five or six years, MGM Film Group will use her as a prototype to shoot a "Social Network".

   That is more in line with her personality and preferences.
