Chapter 1022 Demagogic Revolutionary Anticipation
Faced with Smith Zhou's almost step-by-step behavior, John Vince had no other way except to retreat.
The two people's reliances are different. Smith and Zhou rely on his extremely powerful power. He rely on the wealth and status symbolized by his family. If this kind of reliance is actually an asymmetry between the two people. Once his reliance is dug up from the bottom, this asymmetry relationship will be immediately increased to the extreme and become a one-sided situation.
Smith Zhou had absolute initiative. With his temper, he naturally could not give up his relentless pursuit of John Vince under such circumstances. So immediately, he said to John Vince, who had been suppressed by him, who was almost about to lose his position.
"Think about it. Those who used to rely on your family's breath have turned into beings that can call you around. But you who used to dominate half of the American finance can now only submit to their orders for a little profit. Are these things you are willing to accept? Or are you planning to accept your fate like this?"
If all their previous conversations were reconciled at this time, John Vince would have found that he had been led by Smith and Zhou. They should have talked about cooperation and the rise and fall of the Morgan family, rather than talking about whether they are willing to give up or not, whether they are resentful or not.
It was obvious that John Vince did not realize this. Smith Zhou's words had a magic that made people shake their minds, and when he told this point, John Vince was completely trapped in his own memories.
That is not a good memory. Anyone who falls from the peak of glory to the bottom will definitely feel like hell. In this process, due to the influence of subjective assumptions, even a small thing will be twisted into the reason why he falls into hell.
John Vince didn't think of anything else, he just remembered the various encounters he encountered in the consortium. Those bad and unpleasant memories had expanded hundreds of times at this time, and directly became the strongest negative emotions, deeply occupied in his heart.
The ultimate resentment brewed and grew in his heart, making his face become ferocious. Looking at this change, Smith Zhou smiled slightly and whispered in his ear.
"Think about it. If the people who stand on you and give orders are gone. If their things become yours, what should you be like now, and what would the Morgan family look like now. Haven't you ever thought about such things? Let your descendants be proud of you. Just like you put your grandfather's name before your name. Don't you want your descendants to be proud of having your name in front of you?"
"I think, of course I want..."
An abnormal flush appeared on John Vince's face. A person of his age could no longer be influenced by anything else. But only reputation is the thing that he couldn't let go of the most. Being a behind-the-scenes person for a lifetime, of course, he wanted to have a great achievement for future generations to remember. However, he had never had such an opportunity. There was no such thing in the past, nor now. Unless someone was willing to help him.
Although his mind was already being stimulated by all kinds of thrusts, John Vince's thinking was very clear now. He knew very well that it was impossible to get everything by himself. Not to mention letting the Morgan family reach the peak, it was impossible to keep the Morgan family at the moment. Therefore, he had to find someone who could help him. In this case, who could help him? Without thinking too much, John Vince had already put his attention on Smith Zhou.
This is a completely different world that has changed from the past. In the original world, money is the power that can determine everything. As long as you hold money in your hand, you can buy whatever you want. But now it is different. Although the status of money is still important, it is no longer so supreme.
In today's world, the most important thing is strength! The real power!
A superhero who can move mountains and rivers has all its power that is more valuable than a whole mountain of gold. And as long as such a person is willing to stand on his own side, all these things will become possible.
Smith Zhou is undoubtedly the most suitable candidate. It can be seen from his words and his attitude that he does seem to have meaning in this regard.
For John Vince, this was his only hope. So regardless of whether it was suitable or not, he opened his mouth directly at Smith Zhou.
"What do you mean by saying that? Are you willing to help me?"
Smith Zhou did not give a clear answer to this question. He just smiled and looked at the old man in front of him who became worried about gains and losses because he was waiting for his answer. After a while, he said to him.
"It depends on your performance! If your performance can satisfy me, then I may not be able to give you some help within my ability!"
"How do you want me to behave?"
Swallowed, John Vince responded to him. He knew that if he opened his mouth like this, he would completely put himself in a position under Smith. He would be under his control and might even have to pay a huge price for it. However, as long as he could get everything he dreamed of, he would never regret his choice.
And his choice was actually within Smith Zhou's expectations.
The words he said to John Vince just now were not just a simple persuasion or two. The special power that bewitched people's hearts was mixed in. It was the evil ability that could arouse the deepest in human hearts and allow them to be completely dominated by this kind of evil.
Perhaps for some people with firm stance and tenacious minds, this power may not play any role. But for those like John Vince who were born with a golden key in his childhood, enjoyed glory and wealth for a lifetime, and had never encountered any setbacks, this power is enough to arouse the most terrifying thing in their hearts and turn them into demons.
Back then, the Nine-tailed Fox relied on such ability to upend all living beings. Now, it is really not difficult for Smith Zhou to use such ability to deceive an ordinary person. He is sure that John Vince has become a slave. And the self who controls him is almost the same as his master.
Smith Zhou was very sure of this. So he patted John Vince on the shoulder with confidence and boldness and smiled at him.
"It's very simple. First of all, you can tell me who asked you to come to me, and what kind of deal they are going to talk to me about!"
After swallowing, John Vince seemed a little hesitant. However, he finally couldn't resist the urge to get on, so he quickly told Smith Zhou the answer.
"I am the head of the Morgan Consortium and the Rockefeller Consortium now. In addition, it seems that the First Citibank Consortium and the Boston Consortium have also intervened. They provide me with resources to win you as much as possible. If possible, they hope you can establish a reliable and realistic relationship with us."
"A reliable and realistic relationship?" Hearing this, Smith Zhou raised his eyebrows and showed a somewhat confused expression. John Vince immediately explained to him.
"They hope that you can accept the money, resources and status we provide to you. If you want, you can hold any position you want in any company under the name of several of our consortiums. For them, only if you accept the money and status we provide and treat it completely as your own interests. Then the relationship between you and them can be considered reliable and strong. Because at that time, your interests are consistent, and helping them is equivalent to helping yourself!"
"A smart approach. Sure enough, those consortiums can develop to this point now, not by temporary luck, wisdom and vision, they are not bad at all!"
After sighing, Smith Zhou continued to lower his head and looked at John Vince.
"So, why did they buy me like this? I know an old saying that you don't receive any reward without merit. Without a suitable reason, I just gave up such a huge profit to me in vain. I think even the internal senior leaders of several major consortiums would definitely not agree. What are their intentions?"
With the first time, the remaining betrayal was something natural. There was no need to hesitate, and John Vince said to him bluntly.
"Their purpose is the Stark administration. You should know that because of the Stark administration, the interests of the consortium have been greatly impacted and traumatized. It is conceivable that if he was allowed to continue like this, then the United States, which we used to dominate, would no longer be something we could control."
"The consortium has controlled this country for more than a hundred years. For us, this country is the cornerstone of our development and survival. Everything the Stark administration does is tantamount to digging the roots of the consortium. So no matter what, we will not allow the Stark administration to continue to exist like this. We need to launch a revolution, a revolution that restores the previous American order. In such a revolution, only people like you are the power that the consortium needs the most."
"Very good! Interesting thoughts." Hearing what these people planned, Smith Zhou showed a special smile on his face. He lowered his head, leaned into John Vince's ear, and whispered to him. "Tell them that I am willing to cooperate with them. But I have a request!"
