After finishing his meal, Barton took out his collection of cigars.
The three of them sat around the fireplace and chatted while warming themselves.
Mark was very interested in Lin Zhiming's process of winning the title of World's Strongest, so they basically talked about the content of the World's Strongest Battle.
After talking about the world's strongest battle, Barton changed the subject to the Tarzan meeting.
"Zhi Ming plans to establish a brand new chamber of commerce called Taishan Association." Barton said to Mark.
"Oh? Really? What is the main function of this chamber of commerce?" Mark looked at Lin Zhiming and asked.
"The Chamber of Commerce aims to break the existing world economic structure and find better and larger development space for more emerging economies." Lin Zhiming said.
"The current world economic structure is not easy to break." Mark said meaningfully.
"Although it is difficult, there is a saying in the Long Kingdom that everything depends on human effort. If you do it, there is still a possibility of success. If you don't do it, there is no possibility at all." Lin Zhiming said.
"Mark, I plan to join the Tarzan Society." Barton said.
Hearing Barton's words, Lin Zhiming and Mark both showed surprised expressions.
Lin Zhiming was surprised because the Taishan Society had not yet entered the substantial stage of formation. At this time, Barton stated so openly that he wanted to join the Taishan Society. It was actually a bit premature, which was somewhat inconsistent with his role as a calm businessman.
"Are you leaving the Illuminati?" Mark asked.
"Yes." Barton nodded.
"Haha, you should have done this a long time ago. I told you a long time ago, what good is the Illuminati? A group of hypocrites, euphemistically called the lighthouse of the world, are actually a group of vampires who use the advantages of information technology to suck the blood of the world!
"Mark said excitedly.
"Ahem, Mark, although we are young, you can't say that." Barton coughed twice and said.
Getting smaller?
Lin Zhiming's eyes lit up slightly, and he finally understood why Mark, a person who opposed the Illuminati, was so close to Barton, the vice-president of the Illuminati. It turned out that the two of them had grown up together.
"I told you when you joined the Illuminati more than thirty years ago that the Illuminati are all hypocrites. If it weren't for the fact that we grew up together, I would have broken off our relationship with you more than thirty years ago.
"Mark said with a dark face.
"You also know that in Europe, and even around the world, if you want to have better development, you must join the Illuminati, otherwise you will always be suppressed." Barton said.
"Huh, suppress them if you don't join. This is the consistent policy of the Illuminati. This gangster style has allowed them to win over many powerful people, but this approach will one day bring disaster to them."
Mark said.
"The reason why I want to leave the Illuminati is partly because of the Taishan Society, and partly because of what you said. The Illuminati has been strong for a long time. Although it has a transcendent status, the people have also had a long-standing grudge against it.
, even if there is no Taishan Meeting, it is estimated that big things will happen in a few decades or a hundred years." Barton said.
"It won't take that long. The Illuminati has been monopolizing the world's economic lifeline for nearly a thousand years. There are too many people who are dissatisfied with this situation. You may not know that the European Union is currently drafting an anti-monopoly bill. The main target of the bill is
The Illuminati," Mark said.
"How could I not know this, Mark, you underestimate my intelligence network too much." Barton said dissatisfied.
"Then do you know how many EU countries support this bill?" Mark asked.
"I don't know that." Barton shook his head.
"Fifteen!" Mark gestured with the number fifteen seriously.
"Fifteen?!" Both Barton and Lin Zhiming showed surprised expressions. You must know that the entire EU has only twenty-seven member states, and these fifteen members already exceed 50%.
"Once the bill takes effect, members of the Illuminati will be levied at least one trillion more in taxes every year," Mark said.
"One trillion tax dollars...that's nothing to the Illuminati," Barton said.
"It's really nothing, but after all, it represents the attitude of EU countries." Mark said.
"Indeed..." Barton nodded.
Lin Zhiming sat aside and listened to the chat between Barton and Mark. He didn't speak much and was basically an observer. However, although he was just an observer, he memorized the information points of the two people's chat extremely seriously.
Mark and Barton seemed to be chatting, but in fact they had revealed a lot of important information, and this important information was very important to him at the moment.
The three of them chatted for about an hour. Mark left the resort early because he had a meeting.
Lin Zhiming and Patton put him on the helicopter.
Before taking off, Mark said to Lin Zhiming, "I am very willing to see young people have ideas and drive. The rules of this world need to be changed. I am very optimistic about you and I am very optimistic about Taishan Club."
Hearing Mark's words, Lin Zhiming smiled.
He knew that Barton's purpose of introducing him to Mark had been achieved.
"Mr. Mark, if you have the opportunity, I welcome you to visit the Dragon Kingdom." Lin Zhiming said.
"If you have a chance!" Mark nodded.
Then, the helicopter took off and disappeared into the sky.
Lin Zhiming and Barton stood there, watching the helicopter fly away.
"Introducing Mark to you is to let you know that you are not the only one resisting the Illuminati in this world." Barton said calmly.
"Understood." Lin Zhiming nodded.
"Although many people around the world are resisting the Illuminati, most of them are irrelevant. Do you know why?" Barton asked.
"Because their power is dispersed." Lin Zhiming said.
"Yes, these resistance forces are scattered all over the world and cannot pose a substantial threat to the Illuminati. Even at Mark's level, they can only push the EU to introduce some punishment bills against the Illuminati.
, and this is based on the premise that major countries want to seek benefits from the Illuminati. If you really plan to form the Taishan Society, then your primary goal is not to recruit new members, but to organize those who want to resist the Illuminati.
, the country came together to unite all the forces of resistance." Patton said.
"Well..." Lin Zhiming nodded thoughtfully.
"And if you want to win over these people, you have to do one thing." Barton said.
"Are you building momentum?" Lin Zhiming asked.
Barton's eyes lit up slightly and he said, "That's right, it's about building momentum! You must build up the momentum of the Taishan Society. You must let everyone know that the Taishan Society is an organization that is aligned with the Illuminati. You must make the Taishan Society a beacon for everyone.
, in this case, there will be a steady stream of talents gathering outside the Taishan Club, and when the time comes, you can select enough members to join the Taishan Club, thus perfectly solving the problems of expansion speed and gold content."
"I understand." Lin Zhiming nodded.
"I know my fate, when I was your age, I actually thought about resisting the Illuminati and building a new economic order, but in the end I got timid. I chose to join the Illuminati, colluded with them, and step by step I became the vice-president of the Illuminati.
The position of president, now that I think about the past, I really wish I could be as brave as you at that time. Maybe I will die miserably, but at least I have worked hard and fought hard... Now I have given up everything and put all my chips on
I hope you won't disappoint me." Barton patted Lin Zhiming's shoulder and said.
"I will try my best!" Lin Zhiming said seriously.
"Yeah!" Barton nodded.
Lin Zhiming stayed at Barton's place for a day, during which he met several European bigwigs under Barton's introduction.
These big guys showed great interest in Lin Zhiming, but Barton did not mention the Taishan Club in front of them. According to Barton, Mark was a trustworthy person, so he proposed the Taishan Club. As for the others,
The credibility is still lacking, so naturally the affairs of the Taishan Society cannot be leaked.
The next day, Lin Zhiming took a plane out of the Alps and flew to the Kingdom of Fu, where he met with Prince Wesley.
It is worth mentioning that Barton also went to the Fu Kingdom with Lin Zhiming.
Prince Wesley showed great enthusiasm for Lin Zhiming, so enthusiastic that Lin Zhiming felt a little weird.
However, enthusiasm is better than coldness.
Lin Zhiming and Barton stayed at Prince Wesley's place for a day, had an in-depth chat about the Taishan Society, and then rushed to the Foot Basin Country without stopping.
And this time, there was another Prince Wesley on Lin Zhiming’s private plane.
The three of them arrived at the foot basin country, which almost frightened Yoshino Hideshi.
After knowing that the three people were here to talk about the Taishan Association, Yoshino immediately made a decision and expressed his complete support for the Taishan Association.
After spending a day in the Foot Basin Country, the three of them, together with Hideshi Yoshino, flew to the Middle East.
Under the introduction of Prince Wesley, Lin Zhiming and others met the royal family of the Middle East oil country...
After Lin Zhiming won the title of World's Strongest Fighter, he started flying around the world.
In the next week or so, he flew all over Europe, Africa, America, Asia, and Australia. Under the introduction of Patton, Prince Wesley, Yoshino Yoshino, and even Ma Hou, he met with capital bosses, the royal family, and
Big names in various fields have arrived.
A big net unfolded quietly like this.
A week later, Lin Zhiming returned to Long Kingdom.
Everyone in the Dragon Kingdom expressed great enthusiasm for Lin Zhiming's return to the country. From the airport to home, there were people welcoming him all the way.
After Lin Zhiming enjoyed the enthusiasm of the people of his motherland, he immediately threw himself into work.
On the second day after Lin Zhiming returned to China.
An earthquake-level news appeared in the world's business circles.
Mr. Barton, the vice-president of the Illuminati, announced his resignation as vice-president of the Illuminati and announced his withdrawal from the Illuminati.
As soon as this news came out, the stock market in Barton's country fell by three points, and it caused a sharp decline in global stock markets.
Everyone was confused by the news.
Vice-president of the Illuminati, a position coveted by countless people, but Barton actually resigned just by saying that?
If you resign, just resign. In fact, it doesn't mean anything. After all, Barton is busy with business and it is possible that he can't take care of the responsibilities of the vice president. But in the end, Barton not only resigned, but also quit the Illuminati. This is really nothing.
It's hard to understand.
The day after Barton announced his resignation, Barton flew to Dragon Kingdom on a high-profile private jet.
At the same time, the Fuwang royal family announced that Prince Wesley had flown to Dragon Kingdom and would conduct a one-week business inspection in Dragon Kingdom...
