Does Tony have enemies? This is a question of course.

In addition to an almost immortal enemy like Hydra, he also has many enemies hiding in the open and secret. Among them, the most important group of guys are the large consortiums and big capitalists within the United States.

Some people may feel strange. How could Tony, as the president of the United States, be enemies with these American capitalists? They should be partners. How could it be an enemy? But just think about it a little, you will understand that the relationship between them will be enemies is not surprising at all.

Strictly speaking, the successive US presidents since World War II have been basically elected under the control of these capitalists. Even if there is any difference, it is just a trick of changing the left hand to the right hand. So some people say that this is a country controlled by capital, which is nothing wrong at all.

But Tony's appearance broke this convention. He was a member of capital, so there was no need for him to accept the injection of other capitals. Because he was on the front line, he even cleared his relationship with all capitalists. How could an ideal person sit in this position be a good thing for those capitalists who talk about interests? What's more, he came to the stage with a hammer and smashed the seats of capitalists as soon as he came on stage. This naturally formed a deep grudge between them.

For those real capitalists, they will definitely not be used to the current highly concentrated and one-man rule-like US government. Because under this model, they have no say at all. Not to mention controlling the direction of government policies, even some of the basic rights of rich people are almost gone. I am afraid that no one can bear this kind of thing. So naturally, they have been targeting Tony in secret and have been working hard to bring back the original parliamentary system.

The outbreak of Ultron in California is related to these capital consortiums. It can be said that if it weren't for Ultron's targeted financial attack that time, Tony's government authoritative guru would have been caught by these capitalists. After that, although these capitalists were honest for a while, Tony knew very well that they would not give up targeting and attacking themselves.

Just now, just hearing a brief description from Maria Hill, Tony had already guessed the identity and purpose of these secret rumor-mongers.

"It's such a naive idea to use public opinion to squeeze us into the opposite side of those superpowers, so that we can lose both sides? It's really a naive idea. Do they really think that just by using these small moves can we achieve our goals? It's ridiculous!"

Tony sneered and expressed his comments. Judging from his attitude, he did not take such small measures seriously at all. However, compared to his optimism, Maria Hill was obviously more cautious.

"Although it is a small trick, you have to admit that this kind of thing is useful. We cannot ignore the public's opinion requirements. Once they hype things up, we must respond to the incited people. From our standpoint, it is necessary to stand on the side of the people. And at that time, it is probably not so easy to solve the problem!"

Having said this, Maria Hill paused for a moment. She seemed to feel that she did not describe the seriousness of the matter very well, so after thinking about it for a while, she added again.

"We are likely to be forced to start a war against those superpowers, just like the previous war against mutants. Once the people are too excited, it is impossible for us to control the situation!"

As a professional strategic talent, Maria Hill's judgment is very accurate, and Tony agrees with her judgment. So at this time, he had to admit that this is a problem that must be taken seriously. Because it does have a potential threat to destroy everything.

You should know that the United States does not have that foundation now and will suffer damage like the mutant war. If such a thing really happens again, it will not be as simple as the government's downfall. The mutants and superpowers who have been targeted repeatedly will inevitably retaliate against the society in the most direct way.

No one is a mud-killer, and everyone is a little angry. In the past, humans did so many things to mutants and acted so harshly to those superhumans. They all remembered them in their hearts because Tony could invite a great god like Zhou Yi to suppress those people's thoughts, so they could not launch a counterattack against humans after the mutant war.

Now, there is nothing between Tony and Zhou Yi, so naturally, if the same thing happens again, Zhou Yi will not stand up to stop some of them. It will be a disaster, a complete disaster. Although I don’t want to admit it, Tony has to say that humans do not have the confidence to defeat so many mutants and superpowers. Especially at present, there are guys like Smith, the Earth Watcher, and Zhou.

Purging the corner of his lips and narrowing his eyes, Tony began to think about how to deal with such a problem. Soon, he was so agile, and thought of a way to try it out.

"You said that if we should dominate the public opinion and point the finger at those consortiums, will it play an unexpected role?"

"Ah?" Hearing this thought, Maria Hil was stunned, and then looked at Tony incredibly.

What is a consortium? It is a behemoth that really spans the entire world, several continents, and dozens of countries. Take the Morgan Consortium for example. The Morgan Consortium is a behemoth based on finance. Its main pillar is j Morgan.

Morgan is one of the world's largest multinational banks. It has ten subsidiaries and many branches in the United States, and also controls more than 1,000 communication banks. Just this way, it can make ordinary people look up to it as if they are looking at the towering mountains, but this is just the tip of its iceberg.

Foreign countries, Morgan also has branches or representative offices in about twenty major cities and owns a considerable proportion of the equity of financial institutions in nearly forty countries. At the same time, it controls equity of nearly forty commercial banks, development banks, investment companies and other companies in other countries.

It is nothing wrong to say that wealth is as good as a country. Apart from a few superpowers, there are probably few countries that can compete with the Morgan consortium in terms of wealth. Just from this point, you can see Morgan's strength. But this is not his whole body, it is just its power in the subject. Some of a consortium is not the subject, but there are countless branches. The branches of the Morgan consortium are also huge and terrifying.

Financial New York Banker Trust Company, Northwest Bank Company, Prudent Life Insurance Company and New York Life Insurance Company. Industrial oil equipment manufacturers Hannover, International Commercial Machinery Company, General Electric, International Telephone and Telegraph Company, American Steel Company and General Motors Company, and AT&T and Southern Company in the Utilities. Anyone can pull it out is a powerful enterprise that can be valued by a country. Such large enterprises are only a member of the Morgan Consortium. From this, you can know how powerful a consortium is.

Then, by the way, the Morgan Consortium is just one of the top ten consortiums in the United States, not the most powerful one. From this you know what kind of person Tony is against. This explains why Maria Hill is surprised to be like that when she hears Tony’s thoughts.

To attack the consortium with public opinion? I really want to ask, public opinion is in the hands of other consortiums. And even if you can control public opinion, you will never have any impact on the consortium.

What is the role of public opinion? In the final analysis, it is to incite the masses to attack specific targets. People who usually do this, except for the righteous indignation of those righteous people, are basically people who have nothing to do after being full. And the problem comes. The consortium almost directly controls or indirectly controls most American companies. If you target them with public opinion, if they are unhappy to get wages and layoffs to deal with you, what can you do?

I'm afraid there are not many people in this world who will be unable to get along with their foundation because of other people's affairs. If most people are allowed to choose in the face of work and small conscience, I believe many people will choose the former. Under this premise, the consortium that controls most people's work is like a person holding a dog's chain. Isn't it just as he wants the dog to bite?

Maria Hill was very unfavorable to Tony's idea, and she said to him without hesitation.

"Tony! If you don't want to be kicked off the stage like this, give up this stupid idea. Doing this will only make the consortiums break up with us directly, and in that case, we absolutely have no chance of winning."

"No chance of winning at all?" asked with a raised eyebrows, Tony's expression became a little playful. It was certain that he must have his own thoughts in his heart. But Maria didn't know what he was thinking, and she also had her own persistence in her judgment. So she must immediately say to Tony.

"There is no chance of winning at all! Don't forget that our weapons, our aircraft, ships and tanks are developed and researched by companies under the names of these consortiums. All our military rationing is also under the names of these consortiums. If we really go against them, we don't even have weapons, how can we win?"

"Of course!"

With a firm rebuttal, Tony immediately showed a proud smile on his face.

"We have smart weapons, and relying solely on them, we can balance the powerless army. Moreover, you misunderstood what I said. The public opinion I am talking about is not to incite those people and fence-like masses. The public opinion I am talking about refers to those mutants and superpowers! They don't have that deep relationship with the consortium!"
