Rebirth in America

??

Headquarters building.

In order to achieve his own goal, Director Hoover did not hesitate to use the most insidious tricks, trying to disgust Alex from the perspective of public opinion.

With Hoover's connections and power, he easily pushed the media to report on it, which indeed caused huge waves at the time.

But what I didn't expect was that the other party resolved it in just a few clicks. Today, the news media have never reported Brigitte's scandal at all, and people no longer care about such news.

Not only did Alex fail to give in to his call, but even his revenge plan failed.

As a powerful and narrow-minded Hoover, how could he bear this tone. In particular, his predictions about Alex's behavior were repeatedly wrong, which made him very embarrassed in front of Thorson. In addition, the Carpenter family has now initially stabilized and broke through the siege under the leadership of Alex, which made him feel that things were a little out of control.

Hoover made repeated mistakes against Alex. It's not that he couldn't read people accurately, but that Alex's ability was too strong, and he was able to successfully fight back even when faced with an absolute disadvantage.

Since the TV station launched the "American Idol" program, the encirclement between Disney and the TV station has naturally collapsed. The large number of TV station employees they poached did not seriously affect the TV station. Instead, they freed up a lot of positions, leaving the remaining The working motivation of the current employees and new employees is very strong.

Today, the TV station's ratings are like a snowball, getting bigger and bigger, further stimulating the morale of employees.

Seeing that the TV station is about to grow into one of the three major TV stations in the United States, how could these employees let go at this time? Faced with such a situation, not to mention Disney and the TV station, even other TV stations dare not easily block the TV station's path forward.

As for what other tricks Walt Disney can come up with, we can only wait and see what happens next. But in this case, everyone else thought they were doomed.

Carpenter Records also received a large number of new talent due to this talent show. With the addition of new blood, its position in the record market has been further consolidated.

Not to mention that the recent albums released by the Carpenter brother and sister group have killed other record companies. All records released at the same time as them, no matter how famous they were originally. All have been greatly affected. The record market has a certain number. With the Carpenter brother-sister combination sweeping the market, the record sales of other companies are naturally not very satisfactory.

In addition to the record company being the Carpenter family's strongest high ground, the movie company didn't suffer much damage either.

The only loss may be the loss of the opportunity to acquire Paramount. Neither Alex nor Morris expected such an accident. But they just felt sorry for it for a while and didn't care about it anymore.

Now Morris is busy filming the Apes series of films. Riding on the success of the first two films, the third film "Escape from the Planet of the Apes" was also a great success. The successful release of this film. Further expanding the ranks of Apes fans, more and more people are obsessed with this series of movies.

The repeated successes of DreamWorks have allowed Hollywood film companies to see a new way out, which is to invest huge sums of money to shoot high-quality movies. Only in this way can we survive in the market. Attract audiences with increasingly sophisticated tastes into cinemas.

All in all, in the entertainment industry, the Carpenter family's territory is as stable as Mount Tai, and no one can challenge their status for the time being.

As for the rocket and satellite markets, no one can touch the company. NASA is now completely occupied by company personnel. In NASA, the leadership positions of various key departments come from the company.

In name, NASA coordinates all rocket and satellite research and development institutions in the United States. In fact, this big fat piece of meat has been swallowed up by the company. The other small fish and shrimps following the company can only drink some soup at most.

With the Hughes Group as his backer, Alex doesn't have to worry about any problems happening to the company. In addition, Von Brian's ability is really great. With a large amount of resources in his hands, the United States has greatly improved its aerospace technology.

Nowadays, the United States and the Soviet Union are competing for each other, and they have taken the lead in rockets and satellites. The situation in the early days when the Soviet Union always suppressed the United States no longer exists. In this regard, Von Bryan was greatly influenced by Alex to be able to achieve this level of success.

As for computers, IBM has not reacted since it was stunned by Seymour Cray. Their IBMDS system has become useless. Although it is actually the fastest computer in the world, CPT's computer can achieve faster and better computing speeds at a smaller cost.

In the field of electronic products, cpt is currently at a disadvantage, but this is not a big deal. Now cpt company has begun to update old products, resisting the pressure from General Motors, and regaining the lost market bit by bit.

The surprise was for the airlines, as Pan Am cut prices significantly, taking away many of TWA's customers. However, at Alex's insistence, TWA did not follow suit and lowered prices, but instead improved service quality.

No matter how powerful Pan Am was, there was no way it could kill TWA in one fell swoop. This gave them room to breathe. Although they were operating at a loss every day at first, they soon found that the customers they had lost came back.

It turns out that Pan American Airways tickets are too cheap, every flight is crowded with people, and it is difficult to buy suitable tickets, and you often have to wait for several days.

In addition, due to the large number of people, the service of the flight attendants was very poor. Sometimes they would lose their temper with the customers because of the large number of people. This made many customers who were not short of money feel very bad, so they came back to take TWA flights. .

As for TWA, it was different. There were free seats every day, and the service attitude of the flight attendants was also very good. Soon many people found that flying on TWA was a kind of enjoyment. Especially when there are not many people on the plane, it feels like flying in first class.

Gradually, the empty load rate of TWA's planes has dropped a lot, and it is possible to make a little money by flying back and forth every day. Instead of continuing to lose money. In this way, Pan Am's strategy was declared a failure. They tried to seize the market through this method, but it lost its effect within a month.

What happened next was even more shocking. When Pan Am gave up its low-price ticket strategy, they quickly found that their market share continued to decline, reaching the level before the price reduction and continuing to decline.

This left people at Pan American Airways puzzled. They couldn't figure out why after lowering prices for a period of time and then raising them back up, all the original users would be lost.

As for the CEOs of TWA, they were also very surprised after seeing this situation occur, but they were even more impressed by Alex's "foresight" ability.

All situations were solved one by one by Alex, and Director Hoover naturally could no longer sit idly by.

He was going to make a ruthless move.

"Is Agent Smith still out there on duty?" Hoover suddenly asked.

"Yes, he went to Mexico..."

Agent Smith is the expressionless agent who has met Alex several times. It is said that his strength is unfathomable and he is a top-notch expert among agents. He is also the person Director Hoover likes to use.

This Agent Smith is meticulous in everything he does and is able to perform the tasks above perfectly. Coupled with his expressionless and extremely cold behavior, many people mistakenly thought that he was a so-called robot who only knew how to obey orders from above.

"Went to Mexico? Did you find traces of the archaeological couple?"

"Yes, someone once saw them at the border with Mexico. Smith wanted to catch up with these two people, so..." Tolson, as the deputy director, knows more about such subtle things. After all, he is Hu Buddha's right and left hands.

After hearing the news, Hoover had an ominous premonition in his heart. These high-level agents all have their own long-term missions, which are usually things that they cannot complete for a while but have to do. Agent Smith's mission is even more special. He has to do everything possible to find a legendary figure in the archaeological world. Unfortunately, he has never been successful.

"So is it possible that what you are guessing is true?" Hoover asked.

"This is not clear. After all, the couple lost track a long time ago. Even the Freemasons don't know where they are. As for their relationship with the Carpenter family, The relationship…it’s hard to say accurately.”

Hoover shook his head at Tolson's answer and threw the question aside. Even if there is any relationship, we will not know until we find the couple. He felt that it was better to resolve the matter at hand first.

The legacy of the wise!

Yes, Hoover may not have considered it a goal at first, nor was he sure that Alex could actually get the key from the manuscript. But things have changed, and Hoover needs to get the weapons in the inheritance to resist pressure from all sides.

He had originally planned to stir up trouble, and wanted to attract the attention of organizations such as the Freemasons and the Illuminati, so that Alex could bear the pressure from above.

But what he didn't expect was that not only did Alex not fall into the trap, but even the Freemasons and the Illuminati were silent. Apart from the fact that someone from above was secretly taking action against the Carpenter family, there was no other movement at all.

Under this situation, the more Hoover thought about it, the more worried he became. He was afraid that he would soon become an outcast from above.
