Chapter 377 The desire to cause trouble becomes stronger
Ali or Jack Ma has a lot of business dealings in the Lion City and has an extensive network of contacts in various fields.
Like Edward, who is indirectly controlled by Alpha, one of the early founders of Facebook and the apparently richest man in the Lion City has a good personal relationship with Jack Ma.
It is precisely because Jack Ma knows the Lion City so well that he is so shocked and envious of the great changes in the Lion City.
This kind of envy comes spontaneously from the bottom of my heart. When we talk about this topic in private with our close friends, we will ask whether it is possible to take over the power of the Lion City before Alpha takes action if we have this idea and this courage.
After all, Jack Ma believes that the technical strength of Ali and Ant will not be weaker than Alpha Technology, and Ali and Ant have obviously been working in the Lion City for much longer than Alpha Technology.
If they take action first, they will only have a greater advantage than Alpha Technology.
Afterwards, he asked Ali's branch in the Lion City to carefully write relevant investigation reports more than once. The more detailed the better, and Jack Ma also planned to wait for the situation to calm down and go to the Lion City to observe it up close.
After restraining his emotions of covetousness, envy, and jealousy, Jackma was able to analyze the matter more calmly, hoping to gain some experience from it.
In the past, some top figures in the cryptocurrency circle like Sun Ge used money to buy Grenada, a small country in North America with a population of only about 100,000.
After buying this small country, he served as its ambassador extraordinary and plenipotentiary in the WTO.
In this way, you can obtain legal immunity from some countries.
Sun Ge's operation can be regarded as pointing the way for some overseas Chinese tycoons. For many small countries, they have more resources than the entire country. They can obtain some franchise rights of such small countries through transactions, such as Such things as ambassadors of international organizations have a false name but no real power.
It also made everyone see clearly that Sun Gao also made money from cryptocurrencies and even cut leeks without a bottom line. However, he was able to get away with all kinds of tricks and even used his status as the ambassador of an international organization to openly travel to and from New York, while Zhao Changpeng only Can go to jail.
Now Alpha has pointed out a new path for everyone, and the acquiescence of China and America has indirectly stimulated the world's richest people.
Musk is capable of action, and Jack Ma is a Chinese after all. His thinking in this regard is more tightly constrained, and it is not so easy to really take this step.
Of course, another reason is that if the old, middle-aged and rich do this, there is a high probability that there will be other risks.
"At that time, Alpha Technology's project attracted global attention, but my daughter and others seemed to just give it a try, and they got the investment quota." Lin Qinghua said that he actually didn't know the inside story, so his words were very vague.
Jack Ma lamented: "Enterprises will decline over time. Even companies that were prosperous in the past will gradually become mediocre in the long history of the times.
I have come to realize this more and more over the years. Before, I thought Alibaba would be a great company based on a hundred-year time scale. Now I wonder if I will end up like Charles or Jerry, while Alibaba slowly declines to become Sohu or Yahoo. .
In the past I would have been very worried about this and tried to reverse such a future through personal efforts.
But now, I will only choose to accept it, because I am increasingly accepting that our era has passed, and no matter how hard we struggle, it will not help.
When time comes, heaven and earth all work together to transport heroes without freedom.
Now is the era of the next generation. If you have a good daughter, the business they do can have a more brilliant future. ”
Jack Ma suddenly became very chatty. The more he interacted with Lin Qinghua, the more he felt that he could get along with him, because Lin Qinghua didn't know how to float and gave people the feeling of being honest and honest like an old farmer.
Jack Ma calls himself a teacher, and teachers teach farmers, which is quite appropriate.
"Enterprises like Guangjia Aerospace are ostensibly high-tech enterprises. They have been investing continuously in research and development of various technologies, and their output is equally astonishing.
But its vision is to become a resource-based company, hoping to survive by selling the resources of the universe.
It is equivalent to having the characteristics of both companies at the same time.
Of course it hasn't done the latter yet, but it's on the way.
Alpha Technology is a rare trinity of companies that is making artificial intelligence technology that directly connects to consumers.
We rely on synthetic sand to provide unique resources to the world, rely on artificial intelligence technology to reduce manufacturing production costs and increase corporate profits, and rely on Hornbill to directly target consumers.
The combination of consumption, scientific research and resources is an unprecedented behemoth. No technology giant has been able to achieve this in the past. Even if Alpha Technology is limited to Malaysia and the Lion City, it can grow enough to become a monster that ignores time.
If Light Armor Aerospace is in America or Europe, I believe it can become a large-scale Alpha technology. The only pity is that it is in China. In China, this has locked the upper limit of the development of Light Armor technology. ”
Lin Qinghua asked back: "Lao Ma, according to you, you invested in the mining giant because the only leg missing is resources?"
Jack Ma asked in confusion: "Which company are you talking about?"
He could never remember that he had bought a mining giant.
Lin Qinghua said: "It's that company in Silicon Valley that starts with K, called Kobo."
Jack Ma then reacted: "You mean KoBoldMetals."
KoBoldMetals is a unicorn company in Silicon Valley that uses AI to explore copper, lithium and other metal materials.
Their most classic battle should be the purchase of the Mingomba deposit in Zambia for US$150 million in 2022. Within a year or so, huge copper reserves were discovered on the project.
"This is not the same thing at all. Our investment in this company is purely an investment, and there is no possibility of intervening in the actual operation of this company.
You also don’t think about it. First of all, this is a Silicon Valley company. Secondly, besides us, the people behind this company are Bill Gates, Bezos, Dalio’s Bridgewater Associates, Bloomberg, Masayoshi Son and others. Bezos, I'm just playing along. ”
"Of course, if what the media says is true, who wouldn't want to control a country for fun?"
Musk has already begun taking action, beginning with an interview with America's Fox News host Tucker Carlson.
Before the 2024 election, Musk also accepted an interview with Carlson. During the interview, he talked about the election and made endless exaggerations.
Therefore, Musk considered this occasion to be very appropriate. He said some specious words that would not be easy for others to read his true intentions, but he could still get some feedback through this program.
About him wanting to learn Alpha technology and try to gain power in a certain country.
What people from all walks of life in America think of him doing something similar. Therefore, in this program, the questions are not prepared in advance, but the topic of discussion is prepared in advance, where are the boundaries of the enterprise.
"So that's what you want to do?" Carlson asked.
Musk pondered for a moment and then said: "I will, I think if there is a chance, after all it is cool, just like playing a civilization game, who would refuse to start a civilization game in the real world."
“In the last election, you did a series of things to influence the election by handing out US dollars, handing out mysterious prizes, launching recyclable starships before the election, etc.
And you are saying this now, so do you want to control the direction of the election in the next election? Involving the general election at a deeper level than the last one?
Although you cannot participate in the presidential election in person, you can give the public the illusion that I am bound to which candidate. If you elect him, you will elect me. And after he is elected, he must listen to you? ”
Carlson’s questions were so sharp that Musk couldn’t resist.
This is because in the eyes of some people in the White House, Musk is an abandoned son. Although No. 1 is still trying to compensate Musk and hand over the entire moon landing to Musk, in the eyes of more people, after No. 1 steps down, Musk will It can be thrown away.
Therefore, this time Carlson obviously did not give face like last time in the interview, but was full of aggression.
Musk realized that he had said something wrong, and also realized that Carlson was different from the last interview, but this was a live TV broadcast, so he quickly made up for it:
"I just said something wrong, that is, I don't know whether Alpha controls or influences the Lion City.
But there is no doubt that their cooperation with MPs in the Lion City has paid off handsomely.
Alpha Technology will use the world's leading artificial intelligence technology to benefit the Lion City and make it better in the future.
Similarly, I also hope that I can bring my management experience at SpaceX and Tesla to American, so that it can help American to a greater extent.
I can have a deeper impact on American. I think my experience in how to lead a company to success can help American.
But America is not the Lion City. How can I control such a great country as America? ”
Carlson asked: "So you are dissatisfied with the current White House?"
“I think the White House wants to do things now, to help our manufacturing industry return, to help us solve the problem of illegal immigration, to help us control the crime rate, etc., but the White House’s plans usually fail to pass in Congress. The donkey party’s opposition to the plan is not because of the plan itself. It's because this plan comes from the White House.
If the proposal comes from members of the Donkey Party, their position will immediately change.
Under the constraints of Congress, any ideas from the White House can only remain on paper. "Musk defended.
He felt that he could no longer be led away by the other party like this, but should take the initiative: "The Lion City hopes to use artificial intelligence technology to reduce the number of public affairs personnel. This is a very good strategy.
It is also the most effective way to solve Washington DeepState. I think we should learn from this.
The history of Washington is much longer than that of the Lion City, and the problems of Deep State are much more serious than those of the Lion City. The Lion City was able to begin to solve the problems of Deep State after a huge change, but Amerikan could only remain stuck in this situation. The predicament cannot be extricated.
As long as DeepState exists, Amerikan cannot get rid of the status quo. ”
DeepState is not a conspiracy theory, nor is it a mysterious black actor, but a layer upon layer of interested individuals and interest groups.
The officials in Washington have their own interests in things large and small, and these interests were in the interests of Amerikan in the past, so they were proposed and implemented. But as time goes by, this matter becomes more and more consistent with America's interests. The interests of the executors, not those of Amerikan.
The White House realized that this was a problem and wanted to change it, but the affairs officer did not want his own interests to be affected, so he prevented the White House from changing this established fact.
This is the essence of DeepState, which is essentially the same logic as the quagmire of the late Ming Dynasty. This is a stubborn disease that no one can change.
"The president cannot solve DeepState's problem, but by giving you more authority and allowing you to influence the president more deeply, you can solve DeepState's problem.
My little logic tells me that this is not common sense. "Carlson reacted quickly and quickly seized Musk's loophole and beat him hard.
Musk said: "It is artificial intelligence that can solve stubborn diseases.
Artificial intelligence can make the most rational judgments. What we need to promote is artificial intelligence to replace people. ”
Now it's Musk's turn to get stuck.
Backstage after the interview, Musk was surprisingly angry because although the topic the two talked about on stage was the Lion City, Carlson kept digging holes, attacking, misinterpreting, and using various means to target him.
He soon realized that this was related to some people in the White House trying to abandon him.
Compared with other Silicon Valley tycoons, who also make political donations, Musk obviously wants more.
Moreover, after Musk suffered a defeat in this White House, he invested tens of millions of dollars but failed to get the return he wanted. He was also stabbed in the back in his last year. When he was in private contact with potential candidates for the next term, have put forward more stringent conditions.
This made some people in the White House plan to abandon him.
When Carlson, a host on Fox, targeted him so much in a TV interview, it was a signal.
The more this happens, the stronger the desire to gain national power like Alpha Technology becomes.
"If Elon could be elected president, I would vote for him without hesitation."
"Maybe it would be a good thing for Amerikan that Elon could control the president."
"Obviously Elon wants to control Amerikan like Alpha controls the Lion City. Would that Amerikan be better? I don't know, but I'm sure that Amerikan wouldn't be worse."
"Compared with Elon, both the ** and ** resumes are as simple as a blank piece of paper."
After another disappointing four years, China has not been contained, the economy has not improved, and high inflation cannot be suppressed.
What disappoints America even more is that in the manufacturing industry that has relied on various means to return, high-end manufacturing jobs are occupied by Chinese people. This is equivalent to poaching the cake, and then also poaching the people who share the cake. .
So what's the point of scooping up the cake?
This made the American people’s expectations for the general election transfer to Musk. After Musk saw the comments on his Twitter, he regained confidence, “Is it possible to start from a state that controls American?”
