And David. Hearst was also very happy that Kate joined his revenge plan. He knew that although there was no shortage of people around him, for an experienced police detective like Kate to join, it would definitely be more powerful for his revenge plan.

For the success of his revenge plan, it was of great help. After all, the people around him, like West and the others, were mostly think tanks, and most of these people used to be white-collar workers in the office. Intriguing, these people are probably the best at it.

But for this kind of revenge action involving iron and fire, these people are not so good at it, and although he can hire some mercenaries, most of those mercenaries are brainless goods, you let them do nothing. problem, but those people are unlikely to grasp the scale of doing things well.

And some things are not suitable for these people to come forward. It would be much easier if Kate came forward.

So this time David. Hearst is also very happy. Kate should not be the undercover agent put in by the other party. There is absolutely no problem with credibility. After all, she has been in Japan before, helping herself find her daughter, and all the things she has experienced are also It was her opponent, and it was added to her, so she had the same goal as herself, so she was the most reliable teammate.

"Okay, David, now that we're in the same trench, can you explain to us what happened to you?"

Kate couldn't wait to find out who was behind the whole thing.

"Actually, it started a few months ago..."

David. Hearst didn't mean to hide anything, so he just said it directly. There are people in this room he can trust, and Jin Muchen and the others are also very curious about Hearst's previous experience. listened.

"You should also know that our family actually started in California. Although the headquarters of our Hearst Group has moved to New York, our roots are still in the West. In recent decades, there have been differences within our family. Should the family focus on the East or the West? This debate never came to fruition when my father was still around, but my father finally decided to take New York as the family's center. The center of gravity, after all, here is closer to the economic and political center of the United States, and we are inseparable from the news media, no matter what. But my uncle has always had doubts about this matter, and my father agreed at that time. His request, that is, while the family shifts its focus to the east, does not relax its management in the east, so he gave my uncle some financial and resource support to keep him developing in the west..."

"The uncle you're talking about, is that Thomas Hearst's father?"

Kate interrupted David suddenly. Hearst asked, and David nodded in surprise. It seemed that this female police detective still had a job before.

"Lawrence Hirst is my father's brother, and my father has always had a good relationship with him. After my grandfather passed away, my grandfather and my father were in conflict with each other because of the problem of being squeezed in the West. Considering the future of the group and other reasons, Lawrence stayed in the east for development when he shifted the focus of the family to New York. During that time, he did a very good job. He believed that the development and growth of a family cannot be concentrated in one field. And to decentralize the operation, he did not put his business center in the traditional news media field that our family started, but based on these, he invested in other industries at the same time to carry out diversified operations. He successively in the east Some of the invested banks, military enterprises, and engineering construction projects have all developed very well. In the 1980s, he handed over a perfect answer sheet to the family. At that time, my grandfather was very satisfied with his ability, even At one point, I wanted to entrust the future of the entire family to him..."

David. What Hearst said, but usually you can't hear the rich and powerful outside, so Jin Muchen and the others listened with relish. In fact, the development history of these big families in Europe and the United States, if it is really recorded like a history book. The development history of the dynasties that are not weaker than those of China's girdle is very interesting, but unfortunately, the development history of these families is not easily announced to the public, so most outsiders do not know the development experience of these families, and this time there is a chance, Hearing such an interesting story from David's mouth made Jin Muchen and the others feel that it was a worthwhile trip.

Even West and the others pricked up their ears at this time. After all, they didn't know about the past of the Hearst Group.

"Lawrence has developed very well, and the family is very satisfied with him, but he made a fatal mistake, that is, in the 1990s, he missed the frenzy of Internet technology that was emerging in the western region, the fields he invested in, They are basically old industries. Although these industries have documents, they are definitely not as fast as those Internet companies in terms of making money and influencing the future. My father seized this opportunity. It is because of this that my father was able to gain the upper hand on the family board, and eventually regained his position as the new family helm, which made Lawrence and his family very dissatisfied."

What David said, Jin Muchen knew that it must be the experience of the booming development of Silicon Valley. In the 1970s and 1980s, Silicon Valley was just forming a scale. At that time, most American giants did not realize this small The future development potential of the place, so not many people pay too much attention to it, but those venture capital companies with less capital but more courage have made a lot of money in the rise of Silicon Valley.

For example, Sequoia Capital, which is now famous all over the world, was just a little-known small venture capital firm back then, but it relied on bold adventures in Silicon Valley and dug a big gold mine several times in a row. This venture capital firm , has developed into a benchmark in the American venture capital industry. Speaking of the company's experience, it can definitely be said to be a legend.

Later, many other big financial groups and traditional giants also saw the success of Sequoia Capital in Silicon Valley, so they followed up one after another and began to increase investment in those high-tech companies in Silicon Valley. brilliant.

But listen to David. Hearst said this, obviously it was because his uncle Lawrence didn't pay attention to Silicon Valley that year, so their family lost such a great opportunity to make money, so this eventually led to Lawrence's competition for family inheritance. On, it was the final defeat, and the descendants of Lawrence did not seem to be particularly convinced by this matter.

"So the people who staged a coup d'etat within your family and plotted against you this time are Thomas and his son?"

Kate was a little anxious, so she asked David directly. Hearst arrives.

And David. Hirst smiled wryly and shook his head: "I'm really not sure about this, because Thomas and I grew up together. Although we are not brothers, our relationship is similar to that of brothers. If he plotted against me, If he wants to get rid of me, I don't think it's possible, he's not so cruel. So, I'm still not sure who is going to kill me. "

David's words made Kate and everyone else stunned. He had said so much about Father Thomas before, but now he said it wasn't Thomas who wanted to plot against him, so who was it?

"Although my uncle was not very satisfied with my grandfather's arrangement, he finally accepted it, and then he returned to the west and continued to develop there. Later, he handed over his business to Thomas to manage. I am here. My younger brother studied architecture at the university, but he is not particularly proficient in business management. After he took over Lawrence's business, he was not very proficient in other fields~www.wuxiaspot.com~ and sold them one after another. In the past, my uncle invested in a lot of business, and in the end he only focused on real estate. In the past, his business was doing well, but then you also know that because of the subprime mortgage crisis, the real estate crisis broke out, then He lost a lot of money at that time. If it wasn't for me at the time, he would have been removed from the company's list by the family's board of directors. Although he has done well in recent years, he has not been able to recover. Probably Half a year ago, he suddenly came to me and said that the California government was planning to build the first high-speed rail in the United States, and hoped that the Hearst Group could intervene and provide him with support. I thought about it a lot at the time, but in the end I rejected him. Disappointed, but didn't say much."

As soon as David said this, Kate and Jesse's eyes lit up, because after going through their encounter in the villa the night before, they felt that the mastermind behind the whole thing was about to surface. Although David thought it was unlikely that Thomas was behind the scenes, they didn't think so. They thought it was Thomas who was behind the scenes.

"David, may I ask, why don't you support this plan?"

Jin Muchen suddenly raised a question at this time, because he felt it was very important.

"It's very simple. Because of the current economic situation in the United States and the current conditions, the national government of the United States certainly does not want this project to pass, and a large part of the public certainly does not want this project to be successful..."

David's answer can be said to be decisive, Jin Muchen was stunned when he heard it, how could he be so sure? (To be continued.)
