Cosma Empire

"It's time for us to play!" Mr. John said to his butler after tidying up the corners of his sleeves.

The steward of the whole plan was involved and helped Mr. John do a lot of cover-ups and arrangements. After Mark told Mr. John that the special manuscript agency was burned, his first reaction when he woke up was that someone was going to attack the George family. Mr. John knows better than Mark or Arthur and his brothers and sisters that the foundation of the George family lies in these three feature agencies. Once there are mistakes in these three feature agencies, it will soon shake the foundation of the George family.

Maybe they can rebuild the feature agency, but at that time, the right to speak in the field of the newspaper industry may not be entirely in their hands. It only takes a few days for someone to stand up and actively fight for the overthrow of the George family. Do enough work.

Facts have indeed proved this point. The reason why Mr. John did not "wake up" immediately was that he hoped to attract more opponents. At the same time, he also used the fact that he was unconscious to make some people change their original plans.

Those who promoted the whole event may have prepared a more decisive and brutal method to cut off the foundation of the George family at the beginning, but when he was unconscious, these people would slow down a little. It is also a very important scoring point in the cruel capital world. Being able to fill the stomach and eat without being ugly is what all capitalists pursue. To attract more enemies and disrupt the enemy's plan is Mr. John's idea.

When the enemy should have appeared, and these people began to tie their napkins hypocritically, he appeared, disrupting the plans of these people again, and messing up all their steps. Only in this way can the George family revive. It doesn't matter whether Dulin did this, because in the eyes of Mr. John, Dulin and the enemy have already been equated. He may just be a vanguard, a vanguard, an inducement.

Just as Mr. John was about to open the door and walk out of the "ward", the phone rang suddenly. He frowned, and walked over to answer the phone himself, "This is George Manor."

The voice in the earpiece is a bit weird, and the other party has done a good job of preparation. It may be because they are afraid of being monitored." During the cabinet meeting a few days ago, Mags proposed a new bill, and the cabinet and the Ministry of Justice perfected the content. This bill is called the "Anti-Industry Manipulation Act", and it has been sent to the Imperial Diet..."

Mr. John's complexion has changed a little, and the general content can be guessed just by the name of this bill. He covered the microphone, turned his head to look at the butler and asked, "What day is today?"

The housekeeper told him without hesitation that today is Monday.

Yes, yesterday was Sunday, so Mark initially put the time of the conference on Sunday, and the conference was held during non-working hours, which would not delay the working time of these newspaper presidents too much. It's a pity that something went wrong, so that it was postponed to the next day, that is, today, it was held in the open air at the George family's estate, so today is Monday.

Monday is a very ordinary day, but it is also a very unusual day, because it is the first working day of the week, and many companies and official departments will have routine meetings to arrange the work of the week. Similarly, Monday, the second week of October, is also the day when the Imperial Council is held in the fourth quarter of each year.

According to the constitution and practice, the Imperial Parliament will be held four times a year, and the second Monday of the first month of each quarter is the day when the Imperial Parliament is held. This meeting will vary in length from one day to five days according to the content and flow of the meeting. In addition, if there is a very special situation, an interim meeting can also be held. An interim meeting can only be held with the presence of 35% of the members, while a normal meeting requires the presence of 70% of the members.

John already had some guesses in his mind, he lowered his voice and asked, "So what's the situation?"

"It has been passed, and it has been entered into the Imperial Code, and some members of the parliament are discussing whether to include this bill in the Basic Law.

I have paid my debt to you, and good luck, old John. "

The line of the phone was cut off with a click, and John hung up the phone in a daze. He thought that his opponents and enemies would not be too many, and they were all his old enemies. Those capitalists who surround themselves like sharks are not considered enemies. It is only their nature to be attracted by interests. Once they stabilize, they will naturally retreat.

In all fairness, if he had encountered such an opportunity, he would also wander around the table with a knife and fork, waiting for the moment to grab a seat.

But he never thought that Magus would be involved in this. He proposed such a bill and passed it in the Imperial Parliament. To say that this bill has nothing to do with his George family, the old guy is willing to bet his head that after living for so long, his political sense is definitely the most sensitive one, and this matter definitely has something to do with him. But why are the top leaders of the new party suddenly going to attack the George family? He couldn't figure it out a bit, and sat on the edge of the bed a little staggeringly, his mind swollen slightly.

Has the matter gotten this serious? Why is the whole world different all of a sudden?

He asked himself that he had never sinned against the senior leaders of the New Party. No matter what kind of political news, he asked the editor-in-chief and editor-in-chief of the Special Articles Agency to guarantee a politically neutral position. He never favored any politicians, nor was he inclined to any political party. People say that the report of the George family is the most timely and fair, which is also the main reason why the George family has survived to this day.

He considered whether it might be due to the problem of standing in line, such as reporting some news that damaged the image of the New Party, but he has always been very cautious in this regard, and he will never make such a fatal mistake. Including the deal between Mark and During this time, he also messed up, the purpose is to ensure that the George family will always stay out of the political arena, they will not have any position, and will always stand on a neutral point of view.

In fact, sometimes, the position of guaranteeing neutrality is itself a subjective position, especially in the political arena.

There are three camps in the political arena, black, gray and white. For those big shots, the neutral George family is the grayest one. He did maintain a neutral attitude, but there is also a saying in the political arena - if not a friend, then must be an enemy!

This is an affirmative expression. There are no "bystanders" in political strife. Everyone is either one of us or the enemy. There is no neutrality at all.

The reason why the George family has the attribute of "politics" is related to the business they run, which is the newspaper.

As the mainstream media platform in the world today, newspapers are more important to politics than any other industry. As small as politicians attacking each other, as large as strife between political parties, they cannot do without the newspaper as a way to speak out. But now this channel is not in the hands of any politician or party, but is firmly in the hands of an "outsider", which makes many politicians very uncomfortable.

I advocated my political ideas and scolded my political opponents a few times. When I read newspapers, there were no swear words, no words to attack the other party’s political platform, no words to greet the other party’s family members, and only my own political ideas remained. .

For those politicians at the bottom of the political circle, this kind of newspaper without obvious orientation and position is a good newspaper, but for the bosses who need to use newspapers and use newspapers as weapons to attack political opponents, this neutral mode It is a cancer in the political arena.

They need newspapers with more obvious inclinations and stances to do their best to criticize, curse, and revil political opponents for themselves, and praise their own great achievements without a bottom line.

At the same time, the George family is also a tycoon who is the best to use a knife. The newspaper tycoon is a little different from the tycoons in other industries. The tycoons in other industries are not so easy to be defeated. For example, the railroad tycoon Colliers, if he hadn't fallen by himself, could others have brought him down?

Secretly digging a section of railway?

Or should we build a brand-new railway network with more total kilometers and a larger coverage area at our own expense?

Impossible, this kind of person can only make Colliers feel the crisis and have a chance to fall if he falls by himself, or another strong competitor appears.

Otherwise, no one can do it.

Not to mention those steel tycoons who blow up one of his steel factories and still have dozens of them, and he can still sell ore after blowing up all the steel factories.

But the George family is different. There are only three feature agencies in this family. Their foundations are not deeply planted in the ground, but exposed to the air. This is why Mr. John actively expanded his printing business before he felt old. In fact, he already had a sense of crisis at that time, but it is a pity that crossing the line is not so easy, not only will the balls be pulled, but the egg may be pierced by the sharp ratio, and the egg whites will be scattered all over the ground.

Now this hidden bomb has finally exploded. For Magus, the George family is just an appetizing soup. Using the "Anti-Industry Manipulation Act" to kill a well-known industry tycoon will deter those large trust companies and syndicate companies. Yes, this is also beneficial to the empire's control and restraint of capitalists.

Once the George family is sure that it will fall in the "Anti-Industry Manipulation Act", then Magus will raise his butcher knife and slash at other big capitalists who monopolize the industry. Although doing so may not necessarily kill them all, it can at least let them know what fear is and what "truth" is.

As for the sacrificed George family?

In the process of social progress, this family has contributed meager strength, and history will remember this family and these people.

First trust to fall under the Anti-Industrial Manipulation Act.

To be remembered by history is the supreme honor!
