"Masco, take a long-term view. David has already risen to power, and with his ever-expanding influence, the three major corporations will be a thing of the past sooner or later. Look at how much effort these people have put in, yet they couldn't even stop this bill that's going to cut them in the bud."

"And don't forget how they treated you back then. Don't you want revenge for that?"

"What's in front of you now is an excellent opportunity. Our camp already has the Kennedy family, the local powerful families in each state, and control of Congress. It's not a sure win, but it's definitely worth the gamble!"

Thompson was getting impatient, and his words came out like cannonballs.

Upon hearing these words, Masco fell into thought again.

He was born in the South Philippines. His father was of British and Dutch descent, and his mother was Canadian. He later came to the United States and founded numerous well-known companies. It is truly remarkable that he has come this far.

But because his brilliance was too dazzling, and because he did not come from the Freemasons, the Ansar, or the Illuminati, he naturally became a thorn in the side of those capitalists who believed that those who were not of their kind must have different intentions.

Over the years, major corporations have continuously suppressed him.

Especially in 18, the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission used underhanded tactics against him, forcing him to step down as chairman of Tesla.

Of course, this was later promoted by the mouthpieces of these bastards.

It turned out that he was simply stepping down to relieve pressure because he was managing too many companies and had no interest in managing Tesla.

As for whether anyone forced him to resign from his position as chairman?

The announcement clearly states that there is none!

But only he himself truly knows the bitter consequences.

But that's not the worst part.

What's most outrageous is that in early 17, he announced the launch of a rocket program to prepare for the implementation of a Mars colonization plan starting in 2022.

Unexpectedly, with the change of leadership in the White House, these guys, led by the Freemasons, used various means to terminate his cooperation with NASA in order to suppress him.

This is what causes him the most pain.

After all, exploring space has always been his biggest dream in life.

As the world's most mature and authoritative institution in this technology, NASA's help would have rendered all of this impossible.

"Mr. Masco, I know what you're worried about, but I think you need to understand one thing: now the FBI, CIA, and NAS—the three major agencies of our United States—are all under David's control."

"While it's not to say that every move of the three major groups is under surveillance, as long as you're willing to join, with these three organizations protecting you, the probability of anything happening to you and your family is very small!"

This time, it was Ivanka who spoke up.

In fact, she had more contact with Masco than her father, so she knew the newly crowned world's richest man better and naturally guessed the real reason why the newly crowned world's richest man had reached an agreement with David before, but was now hesitant.

Masco was slightly moved upon hearing this.

In the United States, besides the IRS, these three agencies are indeed the most powerful law enforcement agencies.

If David is truly willing to use the channels of these three organizations to protect his family, then their safety is indeed very well guaranteed.

"Masco, I know your biggest dream has always been to explore space and the project called 'BFR,' but because of the suppression by the Freemasons, all of that had to be put on hold. But think about it now, in the whole of America, who else can help you realize this project and this dream!"

As a close friend of Masko, Ivanka was naturally well aware of his friend's greatest dream.

So she was also very clever. After offering security guarantees from the three major law enforcement agencies, she didn't continue to try to persuade the other party with revenge like her father did. Instead, she used the idea of ​​"dreams" as a starting point.

Because he knew that someone like Masco might not risk everything for revenge, but he would absolutely be willing to risk everything for his dream!

Sure enough, after hearing these words, Masco's expression changed from hesitation to excitement, and his face was filled with strong desire.

As Ivanka said, exploring space has been his lifelong dream.

The shelved "BFR" project was something he had poured countless hours of effort into.

Unfortunately, all of this has become increasingly unattainable due to interference from the Freemasons.

And who else, besides David, who controls Congress and has been suppressing the three major groups to the point of exhaustion, could possibly have the ability to restart this plan?

"Wait, Ivanka, if I join in, will David definitely agree to these conditions?"

Masco was indeed tempted.

But the thought of how he had been constantly standing up David these past few days made him a little worried that David might be annoyed with him.

After all, the two parties had reached a verbal agreement, and now it is he who has broken the agreement, which is something to worry about.

"Don't worry, Masco, David isn't that petty. Besides, we've built a good relationship with him now, and with our encouragement, he'll definitely agree to these conditions!"

Ivanka also knew that Masko had been avoiding David these days, so he indicated that Masko should not worry about it.

"Alright, if you can convince him to do these things for me, then I'll join!"

Ivanka nodded in satisfaction, then asked, "Do you have any other plans for the future?"

"It depends on the situation. I don't know what you mean...?"

"Here's the thing, David has asked us to meet in New York before 9 o'clock. If you have enough time and don't have any other plans, perhaps you could come with us!"

"Is that so? No problem, I'll go with you!"

Since it concerns the 'BFR' plan, and there are only a few hours left until 9 o'clock, Masco naturally doesn't mind spending a few more hours to finalize the matter.

"Alright, I'll go arrange the plane first. You can rest here for a while."

Ivanka and his daughter went outside.

However, not long after leaving the private room, Thompson frowned and questioned Ivanka in a low voice, "Are you crazy? The 'BFR' project involves a lot of people, and David wasn't even informed beforehand. How could you just agree to it on your own?"

Actually, he had wanted to bring this up for a while, but with Masco present, he couldn't say it to his face.

In his eyes, if you take it upon yourself to do something for someone like David without consulting him, it's perfectly normal for him to get angry or unhappy.

They'll be the ones who can't save face then.

"Father, don't worry. David will definitely not blame us for taking the initiative. On the contrary, he will be very grateful to us."

"What do you mean?"

Thompson looked somewhat puzzled.

"It's very simple. The current situation in the stock market is somewhat unfavorable for both us and David. If Masco joins us, I believe he will not only be a great asset to us, but could even be a decisive factor!"

Ivanka smiled slightly, a hint of smugness in his expression.

"Although Masco is the world's richest man, I don't think his wealth alone is enough..."

Thompson wanted to retort, but suddenly he seemed to remember something, and his voice abruptly stopped.

Indeed, despite the suppression he has faced from Freemason groups over the years, Masco has still managed to defy the odds and become the world's richest man, earning him the title of the modern Iron Man.

While his own abilities certainly played a part, another reason cannot be ignored.

That's the person's personal charisma!

He has a large following not only in the United States, but also around the world.

In a normal collaboration, Masco might not be so desperate, but now, for revenge and to fulfill his personal dreams, he will definitely do everything in his power.

If he were to announce his involvement in rescuing the market, he would certainly do everything in his power to attract capital from around the world.

What Thompson wanted to say earlier was that although Masco is the world's richest man, his current capital is insufficient to play a decisive role in this stock market battle.

However, if his influence attracts a surge of capital from around the world, it could indeed be a decisive factor!

Now, Thompson finally understands his daughter's thoughts completely!

……

It was nearly nine o'clock at night when Sean, Thompson, Ivanka, and the local gangsters, including Bessmay, Goddard, and Charlie, had all arrived at a private room on the top floor of Times Square in New York.

Just then, the door to the private room was pushed open, and David strode in.

"No need to stand up!"

David stopped the group from standing up, then sat down to the side and said, "Let's all tell you about our situations!"

"The Freemasons have two old foxes in the stock market, Buffett and Soros, so this market rescue is more troublesome than we imagined. If we can't take some effective measures, we may very well be 'swallowed' by them..."

Bessma spoke first.

Clearly, the frantic dumping of shares in major companies by the three major groups had already shown him and his family the shrewdness of these two stock market tycoons.

"It's the same on our side. Our family's original plan was to gradually stabilize the situation. But their move was too aggressive, causing all retail investors to frantically sell off their shares. If it continues like this all day tomorrow..."

Charlie didn't continue speaking, but anyone could tell from the ominous tone in his words.

"I'm in the same situation."

"same……"

Finally, although Gotha and his family representatives did not elaborate further, it is clear that their situation was similar to that of the two families mentioned earlier.

Seeing this, David's expression darkened slightly, but he still looked at Trump and asked, "Mr. Trump, what's your side of the story?"

"Our situation is a bit difficult too, but I think we should have no problem holding onto the task you assigned us, and we might even be able to offer some assistance to everyone here!"

Having reached an agreement with Masco and with the help of its capital, Thompson was more confident and didn't sound as subdued as those local powerful families.

"Mr. Thompson, as far as we know, your family isn't doing well these days either. How can you be so confident that the problem isn't serious and that you'll help us?"

Charlie was the first to stand up and refute.

He wouldn't say he knew everything about the Thompson family's strength, but he at least had a general idea.

Moreover, everyone is aware of the situation in the stock market.

What he saw today was that the Thompson family was clearly struggling to cope with the few companies that had been assigned to him as a safety net, as well as the frantic selling by retail investors.

But now Thompson not only has no worries, but also says that it's not a big problem to solve, and even offered to help these people share some of the pressure. Where does he get his confidence?

Is it an attempt to grab attention in front of everyone?

Or perhaps he wanted to tell these people that the Thompson family was very wealthy.

Apart from Charlie, the other representatives, while not directly questioning him, also displayed various doubts and dissatisfaction in their eyes.

"Mr. Thompson, are you sure everything is alright?"

Not to mention others, even David himself showed signs of doubt at this moment.

"Of course, how could I joke about something so important in front of everyone?"

"Alright, Mr. Thompson, tell me first, if the three major groups adopt this mad dog-like sell-off tactic again tomorrow, how do you plan to deal with the companies handed over to you?"

Once again, Charlie was the first to raise questions.

"Mr. Charlie, please don't worry, I'll talk about this later."

After saying this, Thompson looked at David and said, "Inspector General David, I brought someone with me today, someone you also know."

"Oh? Who is it?"

At this critical juncture, Thompson said he brought someone he knew, and David felt that this person must be no ordinary person.

You'll find out soon enough!

Thompson deliberately kept everyone in suspense, then gave his daughter a wink.

Ivanka understood immediately and got up to leave.

A few minutes later, Ivanka returned, but this time she was followed by another person.

Upon seeing this person, many people showed surprise on their faces.

"Masco!"

"Hello, Mr. Charlie, Mr. Sean, Mr. Gotha, Mr. Bessmay!"

The people present were all prominent figures in America, so Masco knew quite a few of them.

After greeting the others, Masco approached David, extended his right hand, and said apologetically, "I'm sorry, Inspector David, for keeping you waiting!" (End of Chapter)
