America's Road to Wealth

Chapter 422 In the bathroom



Soros has been funding several influential people in various countries around the world for many years.

Data shows that as of 2020, Soros’s total investment in this area is approximately more than US$32 billion.

The philanthropist also spends money on global news.

A large number of journalists, TV hosts, editors and media owners have received money from Soros.

The American Media Research Center lists many well-known American figures among them.

The center also claimed that Soros was spreading money around the world, but he was not spreading it aimlessly.

For example, he has made very generous donations to some Latin American media that are known for their opposition to Bagu and Venezuela.

He also spent $60 million just to silence dozens of Latin American journalists.

Soros is also the two famous activists of the Donkey Party, Roqueto and Valencia, and is the mastermind behind the Latino Media Company led by these two men.

The purpose of the company's establishment is to penetrate and control Latin American media.

In addition to large investments abroad.

In the United States, Soros is also not stingy.

As far as Abel knows, several people related to Soros spent $60 million last year to take control of 18 Spanish-language radio stations in Los Angeles, New York, Miami, Dallas and San Antonio.

These radio stations reach an audience of about one-third of Hispanics.

And these are just Soros’ investments in media discourse in Latin America.

If you include Europe and Asia, the number is even higher.

In Africa, Soros has little investment.

Because African buddies, a lot of them don’t even know the words.

In most areas, even TV or radio signals cannot be received.

There is no influential and serious media in Africa.

Even if Soros wants to invest and control, he can't find the direction and channels.

It is precisely because of this that he is particularly willing to spend money.

So in Soros and company's time of need.

George Soros can often easily promote the public opinion they need within those small countries or regions.

Then with the help of the power of these public opinions, we can leverage the economic trends of small countries and regions, and finally achieve a situation where their economies are in turmoil and their currencies are in turmoil.

At this time, Soros and his friends will start to reap the rewards.

This process is often accompanied by the national will of the United States.

There are often a large number of ClA who cooperate with Soros and his actions.

Under the multiple influences, most countries whose economies cannot be independent will suffer heavy losses under Soros's three blows.

There are so many examples.

The Southeast Asian economic crisis in 1997, the Hanguo economic crisis in 1998, the Maozi exchange rate crisis in 1999, the Brazilian foreign exchange crisis in 2000, and other local and regional economic turmoils.

There are Soros and ClA everywhere inside.

Of course, as the saying goes, flies don't bite seamless eggs.

These small countries can be harvested over and over again.

Naturally, there are many problems with their own institutional and economic conditions.

If everything is sound and all can be independent.

No matter how powerful Soros is, he still can't cut it.

For example... Han Guo's brother could not give Soros any means.

Another example is the rabbit that is steady and conservative and does not give opportunities. Soros wants to cut it but cannot.

As a former enemy of George Soros, now an ally and partner.

Abel knew that Soros was actually not terrible.

What's scary is the Oilers capital behind him, as well as the international hot money that's eyeing it and is ready to enter the market at any time.

In many cases, it is these international hot money that determines the situation of the war.

Many of them are even central banks and national teams of major powerful countries.

Many times, it was Soros who discovered the flaw and launched the charge.

Oilers Capital entered the market and began to take action.

Other international hot money players found it profitable and followed suit behind the scenes.

In this way, it is easy to form a mighty financial bandit gang.

How could those small countries be able to withstand this?

The NOK was an accident.

Without Abel, even Norway is a developed country with a strong foreign exchange fund.

As long as international hot money can work together, Norway will still be in trouble.

The reason why Norway was able to avoid this was also because their upper management was very decisive.

After discovering that Abel can influence the movements of more than 1/3 of international hot money.

They decisively invested a lot of money and pulled Abel over.

So it later became Abel and Norway, and a large number of international hot money jumped over.

Let’s all fight against each other together.

Coupled with changes in the international situation.

This allowed Norway to avoid heavy losses.

Like now, Soros and the others are eyeing Argentina again.

Argentina's economic situation used to be very good, but now it is a crying country.

It can be said that it has nothing but football and beef and mutton.

This time he will probably be bloodied severely.

In the banquet hall of the Waldorf Astoria Hotel in Manhattan, New York.

...Then it's settled.

Soros concluded cheerfully.

He and Abel just discussed the cooperation in attacking Argentina.

Nor does he shy away from the two Hearst sisters.

Because as early as two months ago, there were international media reports that Soros and international hot money were eyeing Argentina.

Similar reports have appeared frequently in the past two months.

As long as the Argentine side is not stupid, they will definitely know about this.

But even knowing this kind of thing is useless.

Because if there are no problems with your own economy and country’s situation.

Then there is no need to be afraid of people like Soros.

On the contrary, when both the economy and the country's stability are in trouble.

That is the current international society dominated by Angsa and the West.

It's like being in a sea with sharks and suddenly bleeding heavily in the middle of swimming.

The smell of blood will definitely attract sharks, this is absolutely certain.

Even if these things were told to Amanda and Lidia, it would not have much impact if they told the Argentines.

Unless they can follow Soros all the time and leak all his methods and methods.

Otherwise, it would be nothing more than an international report in the financial media.

Both Soros and Abel knew this.

This is why the two of them felt safe saying this in front of the Hearst sisters.

It's not like it's a secret at all.

Of course. You know, my agricultural company needs a lot of high-quality land. It's not easy to do it in the United States. I'm doing it abroad.

Abel smiled and said: The Birds and Argentina are very good, especially the former, but it's a pity that there are bears watching next to them. Then we can only settle for the second best and see if we can get some for us Americans in Argentina. The land that produces food.”

Soros nodded: No problem, we each get what we need.

After finishing the business conversation, Soros looked at the Hearst sisters for the first time.

Looking at the two beautiful sisters.

The old guy's face showed the same expression as Bloomberg just now.

Ha...two beautiful ladies are here. But we wasted so much time talking about irrelevant things. It's my fault. It shouldn't have been done.

The old guy stood up with a smile and said, I won't disturb you anymore. Miss Hester and my dear friends, I hope you can spend a pleasant evening.

After he finished speaking, this guy, like Bloomberg, smiled and turned around and left.

When Soros walked away, he saw the Hearst sisters looking at him.

Abel waved his hand:

Who do these guys think I am? Am I such a playboy? No, I am different from Hugh Hefner and those guys.

Amanda thought to herself, of course you are different from Hugh Hefner.

It’s true that Hugh Hefner had many girlfriends, but the shelf life of his girlfriends rarely lasted more than a month.

To be precise, those girlfriends of his are just hot friends.

How different is it like you, who is famous for raising one child after another, but you actually gave birth to an illegitimate child...

Feeling a little resentful in her heart, Amanda blurted out:

Sometimes I wish you were Hugh Hefner. Then maybe we would have...

Abel raised his eyebrows, laughed and said to the two sisters:

This assumption is not true. If I were really Hugh Hefner, Mr. and Ms. Hester would never let you get close to me.

He was right.

Regardless of most men in the world, they are extremely envious of Hugh Hefner.

This guy is said to have dated 2,000 girlfriends in his life and is a beauty harvester.

When he was almost 90 years old, he married a 26-year-old granddaughter model.

But in fact, even though he became a billionaire because of Playboy, he is still at the bottom of the chain of contempt among the rich.

People in the entertainment industry, whether it's the ones in Las Vegas or the San Fernando Valley, or people like Hugh Hefner.

In addition to being rich, their social status in the United States is not high.

In the eyes of those traditional wealthy families, such as Morgen and Shrub, it is even more of a low-class thing.

If Abel were Hugh Hefner, a traditional wealthy family like Hearst would definitely keep their daughters as far away as possible.

Not to mention wanting to marry the daughter of the Bush family.

It would be an insult to them to stick it on.

Looking at Amanda who was silenced by her words.

Abel smiled softly, and then showed a serious expression in front of the two sisters for the first time.

Amanda, I know what you're thinking. I'm actually very happy to be liked by a beautiful girl like you.

But have you ever thought that in my current situation, it is difficult for us to have the happy outcome you imagined?

I think... you should understand what I mean.

Think about it carefully and don't regret it.

The atmosphere was right, plus Abel was a little bored.

He plans a showdown with Amanda.

You are a good girl. You shouldn't do this. Think about it carefully and think about it.

He looked at Amanda Hurst and said.

I……

Amanda didn't expect him to be so direct. There was some anxiety on her pretty face, and she opened her mouth to say something.

But Abel had already stood up and said to the two sisters:

That's it. I saw Winston is here too. I won't accompany you. I hope you can have fun tonight.

After saying this, Abel also stood up and left.

Walk towards Soros, Sullivanston and others who are talking to Bloomberg.

Edward and Lincoln also left.

There were only two sisters left on the sofa booth.

Looking at my cousin's gloomy pretty face.

Lydia whispered worriedly:

Amanda, are you okay? I'm a little worried when you look like this.

Lidia's words did not receive an immediate response from her.

Amanda, actually I think it's just like him...

Lydia whispered again to persuade.

At this time, Lydia heard Amanda speak.

A smile appeared on her originally gloomy face.

That smile, Lidia found a bit scary.

I'm fine. Lidya, I'm fine. His words actually made my determination stronger.

I saw Lydia’s cousin saying softly:

I know what to do next. Trust me, I'm really good.

Lidya opened her mouth, but made no sound.

She felt like her cousin was looking like this now.

It's very similar to the slightly neurotic smile that my mother occasionally showed unconsciously.

Lydia chose to shut up.

On Abel's side, after he took the initiative to come out of the booth.

Before he could get close to Bloomberg and others.

Someone came up.

Mr. Smith, can we have a chat?

Across Edward, Abel looked at the old man, and then a smile appeared on his face:

Good evening, Mr. Newhouse. Of course, how about we walk and talk?

no problem.

Shiyi Newhouse, the helmsman of Condé Nast and one of the core figures of the Newhouse family, said with a smile.

Edward stepped aside and the old man walked up to Abel.

Compared with Abel, the 70-year-old old man is not very tall. He is much shorter than him and is not as tall as Abel's shoulders.

Standing next to Abel, Newhouse even had to look up to see the expression on Abel's face.

I want to apologize to you for my brother Donald. Mr. Smith, Donald has decided to reconcile with Ms. Anna Wintour.

George and Michael and I are all good friends. I think we can also become good friends.

Shiyi Newhouse said gently.

Abel lowered his head and looked at one of the legends of American publishing.

As one of Samuel Newhouse's two sons, Shiyi Newhouse was one of the New York Oilers' big guns.

I like to make friends. I like to have many friends and few enemies.

Abel smiled and spoke equally gently: If it can end amicably, of course it would be best.

Oh, that's great. Mr. Smith, you say that, which really makes me relieved. The Newhouse family really likes to have friends like you! Shiyi Newhouse said with a smile.

That's what I mean, but... Abel glanced around the banquet hall, and then said with a smile:

The other Mr. Newhouse, he is the main person in our misunderstanding. Why didn't I see him?

Shiyi Newhouse's younger brother, Donald Newhouse, is also the main controller of Condé Nast.

The two brothers equally split most of the shares in Condé Nast.

Both of them are super rich people who are ranked in the 100th place in the Forbes list all year round.

If the two brothers' wealth were combined, they would probably be in the top 70.

He had conflicts with Anna Wintour, or let the fashion devil backstab Condé Nast. The Newhouse who decided to change jobs was Shiyi Newhouse's younger brother, Donald.

Donald went to Ms. Wintour to apologize. He swore to me that he would make Ms. Wintour forgive him. So he didn't come.

Shiyi Newhouse said.

Abel smiled, knowing that what Shiyi Newhouse said was half true and half false.

Will Donald apologize to Anna Wintour?

He didn't quite believe it.

But if you want Anna Wintour to forgive.

There are many ways.

Even if Abel is here, many methods cannot be used.

But even if Abel is there, some methods can still be used.

For example...the fragrant Franklin.

For the sake of checks from Wells Fargo or Citibank, I believe Anna Wintour's forgiveness to Donald Newhouse will not come too late.

Okay. As long as Ms. Wintour agrees, how about we stop here this time? Mr. Newhouse.

That's great. Shi Yi Newhouse laughed and stretched out his hand that already had age spots. It's a deal, Mr. Smith.

Abel smiled and shook his hand.

Many people in the banquet hall saw this scene.

This scene made many people aware.

The Smith vs. Newhouse conflict that was buzzing a while ago seems to be resolved tonight.

Many people are a little regretful that this conflict did not really start.

This gives them less opportunities to fish in troubled waters or watch good shows.

There are also people who are happy, such as those oil people who have a good relationship with Abel.

Like tonight, the host of this banquet, Bloomberg, walked over with a smile.

Seeing you like this makes me feel really happy that I am hosting this party tonight...

My friends, please enjoy this pleasant evening.

Shiyi Newhouse smiled and nodded, and Abel smiled back.

The three people got together and chatted.

After a while, George Soros also came over, along with several other New York Oilers bosses.

After all, this is Bloomberg's home court, so the Oilers are certainly powerful.

What's more, Oilers Capital itself is extremely powerful and one of the major forces in New York.

Abel chatted with them.

Oh, sorry. Excuse me. I drank too much water. I have to go to the bathroom and wash my face.

Even though his kidney function is abnormally strong, Abel is still a normal person.

He also has the three urgent needs that humans have.

If your bladder is overstocked, of course you have to go to the toilet to sort it out.

Leaving the crowd, accompanied by Edward and Lincoln, Abel walked to the bathroom in the banquet hall.

This Waldorf Astoria hotel in midtown Manhattan is ideally located, just an 11-minute walk from Fifth Avenue.

Surrounded by famous attractions such as the United Nations Headquarters, Empire State Building, Times Square, Metropolitan Museum of Art, Rockefeller Center, Broadway Avenue, etc.

The interior decoration of the hotel is also extremely luxurious.

There are numerous restrooms around the banquet hall.

Only in this way can super parties, which sometimes have more than 500 people, be able to meet the physiological needs of the guests.

The bathroom that Abel went to was the one closest to him.

To access this restroom, you need to walk through a corridor of about 10 meters.

The walls of this corridor are covered with a large number of murals, which gleam golden under the light.

This is because gold powder, silver powder and fine-grained diamonds are added to the raw materials for painting them.

It is said that the murals on both sides of this corridor cost more than a million dollars.

It was a million dollars in the Gilded Age when dollar purchases were extremely valuable.

Americans during the Gilded Age loved this exaggerated tone.

Well, Americans now seem to like this style just as much.

For example, Ted Lerner, the real estate tycoon, especially likes to decorate with gold.

Come to the door of one of the bathrooms in the banquet hall.

Abel looked at it. There was one on the left and one on the right.

Abel took a step forward, and Edward suddenly said: No, the house number has been changed. It was not like this when I came in to check the terrain.

Is there a situation?

Abel looked at Edward and Lincoln, Then why are you hesitating? Let's go and inform Bloomberg.

Lincoln immediately turned around, put a hand on his bulging waist, and walked back.

Edward was close to Abel, and with his bigger body than Abel, he blocked Abel's body.

The cooperation between the two bodyguards can be described as a perfect tacit understanding.

The three of them quickly returned to the art corridor they had just passed, only to find a girl walking this way.

It's Lydia, Lydia Hearst.

Seeing Abel and the other three people rushing out quickly, Lydia was obviously stunned for a moment.

Abel was also stunned for a moment.

However, he signaled Lincoln to pass over Lydia, and when he passed by, he directly took her hand and took her away without any explanation.

As he walked, he said: Miss Hester, there is something going on inside. Someone has changed the door number of the bathroom. Let's go notify Mr. Bloomberg and let him handle it.

Lidya was led away. She was startled when she heard what he said, and then she wanted to throw away his hand anxiously.

Mr. Smith, there is no danger. It's not what you think. In fact, there is...

Huh? At the end of the art corridor, Abel stopped and looked at Lydia.

You seem to know something, Miss Hurst.

Looking at the serious Abel, and the two scary bodyguards beside him.

Lydia comes to her senses.

This gentleman had been attacked not long ago.

Very sensitive to this kind of thing.

Lydia did not dare to delay any longer. She glanced at Abel cautiously, and then whispered:

Amanda and I changed the door number of the bathroom. Amanda is inside, and she also asked me to put a maintenance sign outside this corridor to prevent others from entering after you enter...

Why are you doing this? Abel frowned.

Seeing his appearance, Lidya hesitated again and again, and finally mustered up the courage.

Amanda wants, wants, wants... I can't say it. But I promise, there is absolutely no safety problem. Apart from us, there is only Amanda here.

Abel thought for a while, raised his head and said to Lincoln and Edward: Lincoln will accompany Miss Hester and I out. Edward, please stay and check.

After saying that, without waiting for Lidya to object, he took her hand and left.

Ten minutes later, Abel's figure reappeared in front of the women's restroom whose door number had been changed.

Edward has checked that there is no secret door here.

Indeed, there was only one thinly dressed woman hiding in the women's restroom with a different door number.

Check with special life detection tools. Judging from the infrared signs, it should be Amanda Hurst.

Now, Abel wanted to see what this Amanda wanted to do.

Playing in the hotel bathroom?

The man said no, but his body was very honest.

He opened the bathroom door.

Hearan was inside, looking at Amanda Hurst standing behind the door.

It seems they know I'm here, right? she said.
