Chapter 1334 - 433: Taking Office at the White House! (Part 2)Chapter 1334: Chapter 433: Taking Office at the White House! (Part 2)
Lucas said quietly
"The European Community wants his life now, with a black market bounty of twenty million on his head, half a million for each factory explosion, and five thousand for an employee."
President Miles just smiled at Lucas
"Do you care about that money?"
"I don’t, but someone does."
Lucas took out a few photos from his pocket, showing the Pig Bay Dungeon in Cuba, and pictures of local Cubans being trained as soldiers.
"My advisory team and board members agree on withdrawing from Cuba, throwing Horizon Corporation out, and taking the opportunity to split up his company to obtain their secret brainwashing technology. This is the greatest benefit we can obtain while avoiding the risk of souring relations with Europe."
If Miles were still the CEO of Military Technology, she would definitely do so.
Capital is short-sighted, and it is impossible to risk confronting the world’s strongest economic and military conglomerate for seemingly insignificant profits.
But unfortunately, Miles is now the president of a country and has just tasted the sweet taste of power. Now you tell her to stop?
When have you ever heard of a wartime president wanting to surrender?
Are you crazy!
At this moment, Miles stopped pretending. She stood up from her chair, confronting Lucas in the same posture. Their eyes met, and Lucas actually felt the other’s overpowering momentum, causing him to subconsciously avert his gaze.
"What you mean is... after sixty years since the electromagnetic acceleration weapons bombed the army headquarters in Colorado by the European Space Agency, you want New America to choose retreat again in the face of them sending troops to our backyard?"
Lucas finally realized that the person before him wasn’t a businessman but a president holding political power.
"I..."
"Think carefully before you speak next time."
Miles, holding the reins, waved to interrupt Lucas. She squinted her eyes and looked at the photo on the wall, which was a map of the United States from 1987.
"The European Community... they lost control of the moon’s electromagnetic accelerator after the Seven Hour War, with only the orbital fleet to rely on... we’ll need to test to know how competent they really are."
"Whether it’s New America or Military Technology, to grow stronger, the European Community is a foe we must face, and you know that well."
"Now that Huang Ban has taken the initiative, it might not be a bad choice to watch the tigers fight from the mountain. But standing in line and betting ahead of the situation isn’t that simple."
"Could it be..."
Lucas was somewhat surprised
"You think the European Community would fail on the Cuban issue?"
"I never said that."
"But did you previously believe Horizon Corporation could achieve such results in mere months? Do you think Lin Miao is an ignorant fool? Are you sure he doesn’t have more cards up his sleeve?"
"Since there’s someone willing to be the vanguard, why don’t we watch the show? Surely you don’t think only we’re watching this war?"
"You mean..."
"Just watch, the show has just begun. We’ve tolerated for fifty years, and another moment won’t hurt. Until the very end, how do we know who will have the last laugh?"
Having persuaded and sent off Lucas, Miles sat back in her chair, deep in thought.
In fact, what the other said wasn’t without reason.
What Lin Miao has done makes Miles feel he’s already beyond her control, including those almost inexhaustible elite soldiers and the means to obtain lost technology.
If Dr. Francis Yang hadn’t been dead for fifty years, others might have thought Horizon Corporation had mastered the strongest cloning technology.
Brainwashing and transformation are easier to accept.
After carefully considering, Miles pressed the secretary communication button.
"Get in touch with Lin Miao, I want to meet him at the White House, as soon as possible."
————
Upon hearing that Miles wanted to meet him, Lin Miao eagerly flew to the White House.
However, as part of the deception plan, a passenger plane crashed, a hovercar was shot down with a rocket, and a convoy lost contact.
It’s jaw-dropping how decisively these guys acted.
Most people cannot contend with them, not even knowing how they died.
When he got out of the car, there were numerous reporters on both sides, a huge crowd at the White House entrance, all somehow aware that Lin Miao was coming.
From the car to the White House entrance, a distance of less than a hundred meters, seven guns pointed at Lin Miao’s head one after another, and even he couldn’t possibly dodge all the gun lines simultaneously.
Four guns fired, but, fortunately, Lin Miao managed to dodge them all. The others hadn’t gone crazy enough to use large weapons in Washington, and he made it into the White House safely despite the danger.
"President Miles, coming here truly isn’t easy, I feel my life could be at risk anytime. Isn’t there someone here who wants my head for money?"
Entering the President’s Office, Lin Miao touched the back of his neck, feeling somewhat chilled.
"If that’s the case, please tell me in advance and give me half of the money."
"Stop with the nonsense here."
Miles rolled her eyes
"The White House’s security isn’t that bad. Those killers are hidden pieces lurking for years; using them all at once shouldn’t have any follow-up troubles."
"Hopefully, that’s the case, or I can’t take it."
Lin Miao, with a familiar gesture, pulled out a chair and sat down.
"I wonder what the esteemed President summoned me to Washington for?"
