Chapter 325 Stealing Your Home
“Bang!”
While Murdoch was still having sex, a loud noise startled him. He looked up and saw that it was His secretary broke in, and he immediately asked dissatisfiedly: "How many times have I told you, no matter what the matter is, you must knock on the door first!"
"Mr. Murdoch, our News Corporation has been An investigation has been announced!”
“Huh?”
Murdoch was stunned on the spot, with a look of disbelief on his face.
Of course he knows how powerful David is, but he still chooses to jump out and confront him because he knows that freedom of the press is very important in this country.
So he was sure before taking action. Even if David wanted to move him, the top officials of the IRS would stop him.
What I didn’t expect was that David would dare to touch him now?
Aren’t you afraid of being accused of retaliation and suppressing press freedom?
Even if David is crazy, are the top officials at the IRS also crazy?
Many thoughts flashed through his mind, but Murdock still couldn't believe it. He immediately asked urgently: "What's the situation? What is the Los Angeles IRS doing?"
"Mr. Murdoch, it's not the Los Angeles IRS, but the FBI!"
"What did you say!"
Murdoko was taken aback again, and then hurriedly confirmed: "You You mean, it wasn’t the Los Angeles IRS that announced the investigation against us, but the FBI? ”
"Yes."
"On what charge?"
"They announced the reopening of the investigation against us on the charges of 911 wiretapping."
"911 wiretapping. Door!”
Hearing this, Murdoch’s face darkened.
He settled this matter more than ten years ago, and now it suddenly broke out. He doesn't believe it if the FBI has found any new clues.
And even if there are any new clues from the FBI, there are many people from their Freemasonry in this organization. Why didn't he receive any information in advance?
Could it be... Yes, this matter is definitely related to David!
In order to learn more information, Murdoch picked up the phone and opened the address book, and then dialed a number...
After about seven or eight minutes, the call ended. His face became even more gloomy.
According to people in the FBI's Masonic fraternity, this matter had been approved by a deputy director in charge of criminal investigations, and then an investigation team was set up by Gavin, the former Nevada special agent, to investigate.
He also heard about Gavin. When he was serving in Nevada, this guy announced that he would investigate the governor of that state, Stevenson. It was obvious that he had become David's boss at that time. running dog.
And this further confirms Murdoch’s previous speculation, that is, the FBI’s investigation against them was driven by David from the beginning to the end!
But I have to say that David’s move was really vicious.
Using the FBI to deal with them, and hiding behind himself as a trader, this can prevent people from saying that the IRS is retaliating and suppressing press freedom, and the most important thing is that it is still based on the 911 incident. The charge of bugging the door.
911 touched the heartstrings of Americans so much. He spent a lot of effort to settle the crisis, but now it has been exposed again, and David is behind it. I'm afraid it will be difficult to suppress it any longer.
"Go and destroy all the data on this, and..."
These data have been accumulated over the years. It is a pity to destroy them like this, but Murdoch He can't care so much anymore, because the current situation is very bad, and it must be foolproof
Otherwise, once this matter gets bigger, he will not even mention that he will block David from being promoted. Well, maybe he himself will have to step down.
……
As time goes by, coupled with the constant "fanning the flames" from the Angsa Group, the public opinion about News Corporation's eavesdropping door is getting bigger and bigger.
Not long after the incident broke out, members of the Freemasonry headed by Henrietta and Joshua Mogan called Murdoch one after another, expressing concern about the matter. .
After all, the public opinion siege against David has just achieved certain results. After this incident broke out, the public opinion war must be shelved first.
But this is not the most important thing. The most important thing is not to let the FBI find out anything, otherwise it will really be a waste of time.
But fortunately, although the FBI announced that it has restarted the investigation into this matter, it has not directly announced what evidence it has.
After destroying all relevant information, Murdoch gained some confidence, which was a reassurance for the entire Freemasonry.
The next day came.
Los Angeles Internal Revenue Service, in the Commissioner’s Office.
"Gavin has arrived in New York, and I think the show is about to begin!"
"Hey, I would like to see how News Corporation will fall after the stock market opens."
"Coming, coming!"
Nissen, Bucky, and Simmons were joking and chatting, while David was drinking coffee leisurely, but with Simmons' reminder, he also turned his eyes It was placed on the large TV screen hanging on the wall.
"Hello, viewers, this is CNN TV. The investigation team headed by Agent Gavin has arrived at New York News Corporation. Let's see what happens next..."
You can see from the TV screen that Gavin, dressed in a black suit and sunglasses, got out of the car and led a large number of agents into the News Corporation building resolutely.
After about 15 people had passed, Gavin walked out, but when he saw a large group of people behind him, the entire network went crazy.
"That's News Corporation's board members Tony Aldrich and Theodore Xavier, as well as the CFO and department heads... It's incredible that so many people were taken out by the FBI!"
" The FBI investigation team took away more than a dozen senior members of News Corporation as soon as they arrived in New York. This must be something that gave them such confidence!"
"So many people were taken away by the FBI! , this is no less than a 'house raid'. ”
News Corporation, in an office on the top floor, there was a sound of a cup being thrown.
I saw that Murdock’s face was livid, and in front of him Opposite him, his secretary showed a trace of panic on his face, but he still said bravely: "First... Sir, Gavin acted very tough and confident just now, and took away so many of our senior officials. This I'm afraid..." What he wanted to say was that I'm afraid the FBI already has some leverage, otherwise it would not dare to make such a big show of it, but at the end of the day he couldn't say this.
In fact, there is no point in saying that Murdoch, as an old fox who has worked hard in shopping malls for decades, of course knows very well that if there is no bargaining chip, the FBI investigation team dares to come directly to their headquarters?
Take away so many high-level officials in front of the whole world?
What did David find out about them, and what did he give Gavin, the loser?
While Murdoch was still worried, the office door was knocked open and another of his secretaries came in. This person said in a panic: "Sir, affected by the incident just now, Our market value has plummeted as soon as the stock market opens. If it continues like this... it may conservatively drop by more than 20 percentage points."
A group's market value is conservatively estimated to fall by 20 percentage points. This may sound like an exaggeration, but Murdoch knows that based on the current situation, it may not be an exaggeration at all.
You know, when the 911 wiretapping incident broke out last time, their group fell by 15 percentage points.
And now this matter has not only come out again, but the key thing is that the FBI has just taken away so many senior executives of their group, which will definitely make the market have a serious lack of confidence in their group.
No, something must be done!
After thinking for a while, Murdoch said: "I will hold a press conference...oh no, let Marion speak and stabilize the market."
As the founder of News Corporation, and with the reputation he has accumulated over the years, as long as he stands up, the market will definitely regain some confidence in their group.
But he thought of a problem, that is, he now doesn't know what David gave to the FBI.
If the FBI finally grasps some evidence of their group, his speech at the press conference may put him in a passive situation later.
So to be on the safe side, he finally decided to find a ‘scapegoat’.
Soon, News Corporation’s press conference was officially held.
Marion, a member of the board of directors who was not taken away for investigation, stood up and gave a guarantee in front of the whole country. As for the content, there was no illegal behavior at News Corporation and there was no 911 eavesdropping.
After that, News Corporation relied on its powerful media channels to really induce many people to believe in the group's innocence and restore some confidence in the stock market.
Of course, despite this, News Corporation's market value still fell by more than 8 percentage points in just one day.
This night, Murdock couldn't sleep all night.
When the time came to the next morning, he came to the office early.
Because according to law, the FBI cannot detain a suspect for more than 24 hours without evidence or other circumstances.
So as long as the senior officials they took away yesterday are released today, it means that the FBI is just bluffing and there is no actual evidence, then he can breathe a sigh of relief.
Time passed by and it came to 9.20 minutes.
Even though Murdoch has been in shopping malls for decades, he was staring at his watch nervously at this moment, but the next second, his office door was knocked again.
When he saw his secretary coming in with an ugly face, his mood suddenly sank.
"Sir, the FBI has just released a piece of information. The information shows that during the period when 9/11 occurred, we did set up a 'monitoring department'. The information is here. Take a look."
< br>As he spoke, he placed the tablet in front of Murdoch.
After reading the content carefully, Murdoch's face suddenly became ugly, because it did involve some confidential information of their group.
But soon, he looked calm and said: "What can this information prove? And the department we established is not the monitoring department he called, it is just a department that collects news-related content. ! ”
“This cannot be used as direct evidence, but it is a bit coincident with the time when 911 occurred. This will definitely make people who were questioning us a little more daydreaming...”
"Giggle..."
As he spoke, the door was knocked again, and the person who came in reported: "Sir, the latest news is that the FBI has obtained some key information and has applied to the court to prosecute those of us. The senior management applied for an extension of the detention time and was approved."
"Damn it, what on earth do they want to do!"
Murdoch cursed, but he also felt something was wrong. .
The FBI first took a large number of their senior officials back, and then kept silent. Until today, seeing that the time was approaching to release them, they suddenly released a document, and then they The higher-ups extended the detention time, and it was approved by the court so quickly.
How do these feel like they are interconnected?
"Beep beep..."
The sound of the phone made Murdoch come back to his senses. He picked up the phone and saw that it was actually a call from Sauras. He hesitated for a moment. , he still picked up and said: "I'm very busy now. If you have anything, just say it to Soros."
"Murdoko, something is wrong. My company has detected it, and someone took advantage of it." After your company's stock market plummeted, you prepared to 'buy the bottom' on many of your subsidiaries."
"What are you talking about?"
Murdock was shocked.
Soras is a stock giant, and his hedge fund company is even more famous on Wall Street. Since he has monitored this matter, he is probably not wrong.
Could it be that the series of things that happened before were to cooperate with the stock market?
“Although I still don’t know who these people in the stock market are, what is certain is that they must be related to David. You have to be careful, lest you lose control of News Corporation in the end. The consequences will be very serious.”
In fact, without using Sauras to remind him, Murdock already felt his hands and feet were getting cold and was sweating profusely.
The reason why he has such a high status in the Masonic group is entirely because he has mastered the core propaganda tools of the group.
Once you lose control, your status will definitely plummet.
But this is not the most serious thing. The most serious thing is that now he has a bold guess in his mind.
That is, David asked the FBI to stand up against him, which led to arrests, release of documents, and extension of detention. Now he has made so many moves in the stock market. It is very possible that Not only is it as simple as retaliating against their group, but they may also want to take this public opinion tool into their hands.
And once this tool falls into David's hands, and he uses this tool to attack, destroy and smear the image of their Jewish people in the future, then they will have no choice but to stand and be beaten!
Murdoch didn't dare to think about it anymore, and he immediately yelled: "Don't worry about those people in custody now, let all departments and companies tighten their control, and don't let anyone take the opportunity to 'run home'!"< br>
