America: My Time

Chapter 1304 New Storm
Chapter 1294 A New Storm

"What a bunch of useless trash! They gave in so quickly, do they even have any backbone?!" Soros cursed immediately after learning about the situation with the Koreans. This was the last thing he wanted to hear, but he was powerless to do anything about it. Clearly, his plan had failed, and it was impossible to use the Koreans to restrain John!
“You should have been prepared long ago. I told you those guys had no backbone, but you didn’t believe me. Now that things have finally gone wrong, expecting them to restrain John is just wishful thinking. How could a bunch of spineless cowards accomplish all this? You were fooled by their previous facade. They dared to oppose John because they were arrogant, not because they had any backbone. When they can’t get everything they want, when they are in dire straits, they will inevitably compromise.”

"How was I supposed to know they couldn't even hold out for this little bit? There are only a few days left!"

"This isn't something that happened in just a few days; it's because they never had the ability to do it in the first place. They were already on the verge of collapse, just holding on by sheer willpower, or perhaps clinging to a sliver of hope. They always thought that the relationship between Lee Boo-jin and John would bring them some benefit, but in reality, they were overthinking it. John may be amorous, but he wouldn't be willing to suffer such a huge loss for a woman, let alone make such a ridiculous request. Anyone would refuse!"

"Alright, enough lecturing. What do we do now? John hasn't fallen into the trap we set for him. Should we make our move now? In any case, John still has to focus on things in South Korea. Whether it's energy, finance, or even mining, he can't completely hand them over to anyone else." A glint of light flashed in Soros's eyes. He felt they couldn't wait any longer, but this wasn't a decision he could make alone; it required discussion.
"I have no problem. We've already prepared everything. A few days earlier or later doesn't matter. It's just that the Europeans and their speculative capital might have a hard time catching up in the short term!"

Upon hearing this, Soros sneered, "What do we care about those bastards' lives? You haven't forgotten how they cheated us before, pinning all the blame on us. Now we don't need to care about their reactions. If they want to eat meat, they'll have to pay the price."

Soros had no idea what John would do. After all, it seemed that John's funds had been drained by the old guys behind them, but it was hard to say whether that was the case. After all, no one knew how much power John had hidden over the past ten years. Every financial upheaval had given him the opportunity to expand wildly, and this time was no exception. So Soros and his group were very worried.

The winds of change are blowing in Southeast Asia once again, and Indonesia is once again under attack from Soros and his allies. As soon as the call to attack sounded, Indonesia was once again engulfed in a terrible storm, and the entire financial market quickly went crazy.

"It's starting. It seems Soros has finally lost patience. Let's begin. There's no need to hide anymore. Unleash all our hidden forces in Southeast Asia. It's time to reap the rewards. Soros and his crew will take all the blame!" With John's order, Standard Chartered Bank, Hurricane Investment, and many other hidden assets began to emerge, and soon a terrible financial storm swept across Southeast Asia once again.

The short-selling power was unprecedentedly strong. Before Soros and his team could recover from the shock, everything changed. The financial storm they had triggered had already caused such a dramatic turn of events, which made Soros and his team frown. They were not fools and naturally understood who had such power and who had made such preparations!

"Damn it, that bastard John was all prepared. He was just waiting for us to make the first move, using us as a shield. That guy is too insidious!" Soros immediately realized who was behind this, but what could he do? There was nothing he could do to stop it. Besides, even if he told them, not many people would believe him. After all, John had previously siphoned off a huge amount of money from Southeast Asia for acquisitions, so they had to take the blame themselves!

"This guy is indeed too insidious. Although we were prepared beforehand, it all came too suddenly. The amount of funds he controls still exceeds our imagination. Standard Chartered Bank had been making its moves for a long time, but he was even earlier than we thought. Now we have no other choice!"

"Who would have thought that this madman had foreseen the Southeast Asian financial crisis but didn't act, instead laying the groundwork and waiting for us to make our move? What's most infuriating is that this guy didn't use his full strength before, as if he had already seen through us!" At this moment, Soros was also speechless. He thought that John's funds were the final move, but now he realized how wrong he was. John's plan far exceeded his imagination.

“It’s no use saying anything now. We’re already on the verge of disaster. No matter how many ideas we have, it’s useless. We can only grit our teeth and continue. After all, we can’t just give up and let John take all the benefits!” “Yeah, even if we know we’ll have to take the blame for this bastard, we have to keep going. This madman is too vicious! Maybe we were wrong from the start. This madman won’t compete with us for the initiative because he already has it!” Soros was devastated, but he had no choice but to continue. After all, everything was out of his control.

“You’re right, but it’s too late now. Even if we don’t want to, we have to continue. We can’t stop now, even if we wanted to!”

The current situation is extremely distressing for Soros and his group, yet they are powerless to change it. After all, they have no control over the situation, and if they stop now, their entire operation could collapse. If John seizes the opportunity, they may pay a heavy price, since they have already started this new financial storm.

While Soros and his ilk were in shock, the old guard in the US were also shocked and couldn't believe it. John had previously put up a huge amount of money, and now he had such an amazing backup plan. This shocked them all. Even Morgan was having a headache. This was all too crazy.

"Boss, what do we do now? Those guys on Wall Street are asking us if we know anything about John. Aren't they deliberately causing trouble? How could we possibly know about this beforehand? These guys are just looking for trouble, targeting us. We can't just accept this!" Jimmy was also shocked. When he received the news, he was also stunned by everything and by John's methods!
“Ignore those guys. Let them ask what they want to know. We have no obligation to tell them. However, John has gone too far this time. We thought he had exhausted all his tricks, but it seems we underestimated his strength. His plans in Asia are far beyond our imagination. Even Morgan didn't notice his arrangements. You can imagine how panicked Soros is right now.”

“We don’t care about those guys on Wall Street, but the White House and Rockefeller won’t let us off the hook. They’ll definitely ask us questions, since everyone thought John didn’t have much money left.”

"Let them think what they want, this has nothing to do with us. It just shows that everyone underestimated John's financial abilities. He saw the situation in Asia a long time ago, but he kept quiet and carefully made arrangements. We can't do anything about such a scheme. Judging from his amazing moves, he has been planning for at least four or five years. I even suspect that he started planning after the bubble crisis in Japan and was just waiting for this day to come. Otherwise, he wouldn't have such strength and wouldn't have been able to hide it from us!"

"This is insane! If he really did this, it would be terrifying. He spent years planning this, all for this final moment. Even though he didn't use this power before, and everyone was deceived, it's terrifying to even think about!"

"Just wait. I believe it won't be long before those old guys like Rockefeller get restless again, and they'll be afraid of John's sudden increase in power. But this time, they won't have any excuses, and they can't do anything to John. After all, this is all happening overseas, not within our borders. John has enough reasons to 'explain' it!"

"But no matter how we explain, it's impossible to satisfy those people. After all, the appearance of one bank after another is too unexpected, and the amount of funds they have is also shocking. At least no one expected John to have such a backup plan!"

"Are you sure these are John's banks? You can't be sure. None of these banks are under John's name. Under these circumstances, who can do anything to him? As long as he claims he doesn't know, what can Rockefeller and the others do? Perhaps we can find out how long John has been operating in Asia by looking at the changes in these banks, and why these banks have been hidden until now without being noticed!"

“It’s difficult. This is crucial information. If John intended to hide it, he must have been prepared beforehand. Investigating won’t yield any results; it will only cause us headaches and distress. I don’t believe John wouldn’t have considered all of this. If this is his backup plan, he must have made more comprehensive preparations.” As he spoke, Jimmy sighed deeply, a hint of awe appearing in his eyes.
