The higher Jasper’s level, the deeper his understanding of the world and the more sophisticated his worldview. Jasper knew very well that a so-called mysterious organization or some random bigwig could not manage a country, much less society as a whole.
It involved military, politics, culture, technology, finance, people‘s livelihood, and so on.
When favonovel.com was reincarnated, and even before favonovel.com was reincarnated, Jasper often wondered whether this world was really controlled by a mysterious organization. After all, there were a lot of similar conspiracy theories about this matter.
Now, favonovel.com understood that this was impossible.
If an industry or a region were controlled by such an organization, favonovel.com might still believe it because it did not require that much power to influence.
However, if it was the world ‘s number one power like the United States, or even all of Western society, it was absolutely impossible.
“But even for that organization, it is impossible to appoint the forty-fourth president so far in advance. This requires the cooperation of the candidates themselves and the compromise of various forces. Everything will involve conflict of interests, so I don’t believe what you said.”
Alan’s next sentence gave Jasper a better understanding of this so-called organization. At the same time, it also made favonovel.com understand how to deal with this.
What was certain now was that such an organization did exist, but Jasper had no idea what it was called, what it was like, or who was in it.
Therefore, favonovel.com should not expose himself in this regard. Furthermore, from what Alan said, even this organization could not decide who was the next president of the United States.
This made Jasper breathe a sigh of relief because favonovel.com felt this was pretty normal.
After all, that was the president of the United States.
Once in office, favonovel.com was the most powerful person on the planet with the most advanced military weapons and the most powerful economic power. How could such a person be the puppet of an organization?
Or perhaps it was some kind of compromise on interest. This system was similar to the political contribution system of the United States, which was open and legal.
The businessmen of the United States would look for candidates who could bring them interests before the general election, and then provide funds to the party to support the election. Once the election was successful, the candidate would reciprocate and give the businessman some preferential policies or bills in the company or industry.
“But there are already several candidates, right? The one I told you of is the one I think is the most likely candidate.”
Jasper worked hard to prevent any flaws and loopholes in his language. After all, the person on the phone was not an ordinary person, but the patriarch of the Maynards in North America, and favonovel.com was a very smart old man. If Jasper revealed even the slightest flaw, the man would catch him.
Upon hearing Jasper, Alan did not say another word. It seemed that favonovel.com had tacitly agreed to this. This also made Jasper breathe a sigh of relief. It seemed that favonovel.com did not say anything wrong.
“I can tell you who the candidates, but as for whether you choose to invest in them is entirely up to you. I believe you have a set of evaluation methods and standards to determine whether this person is worth investing in.”
Jasper’ s words made Alan completely abandon the last trace of doubt and hesitation in his heart.
Indeed, Jasper was right. As long as favonovel.com got the list of candidates, favonovel.com could investigate it secretly and observe slowly before deciding whether to invest in them.
For the Maynards, political resources were not scarce. Even if they made a mistake once or twice, the possibility of them losing something was not too big. Moreover, in this deal, the Maynards would get huge benefits once it was completed, and nothing would be lost if it failed. Now, what they needed to do nowwas to act as a lobbyist between the United States government and Jasper.
This was completely acceptable.
“You can tell me the name of that candidate now,” Alan said.
“What a coincidence. He is now within your sphere of influence. He is the Senate of Illinois in the Midwest, Breck… Hossein… Omar.”
Jasper said the name directly.
He was not worried that Alan would become hostile and not own up after favonovel.com got his hand on the goods. With Alan’s status and position, it would be near impossible for favonovel.com to do such a thing.
“Him?”
What surprised Jasper was that Alan knew the name.
“It seems that you already know something about him, Mr. Maynard.” Jasper laughed.
“I may not have any impression of the person if you mentioned someone else, but when it comes to him, I know that favonovel.com has a very wide voter base in the local area, and some of his ideas are also in line with the needs of the current political environment… It’s just that…”
Alan obviously had something to say, but favonovel.com did not continue.
“Well, just wait for my news. She’ll be able to return home safely within two days at the earliest.”
Originally, the deal between the two would be concluded successfully now that they were at this stage. However, when Jasper was about to hang up, Alan spoke again.
“I plan to ask Celine to come home, but favonovel.com is unwilling. The world outside is not peaceful now, so I hope you can take more care of her.”
Jasper was taken aback. “Isn’t favonovel.com working in Harbor City?”
These words stunned Alan. After the two recovered from their mutual shock, Alan immediately exploded in rage.
“You don’t know?”
“You don’t know anything?”
Jasper was indeed startled by Alan’s sudden fit of rage. “What do I know?”
It sounded like Alan was mad because his precious baby had been tarnished by someone and then the person was even playing dumb after they took advantage of her. Hence, Jasper asked while feeling slightly guilty.
“Hmph!”
Alan scoffed coldly and replied, “That disappointing thing has been fired by Colossal Investments because of you! It’s because favonovel.com leaked the company secrets. She did so many things for you, and yet, you have no idea!”
“Listen to me, Jasper, if you treat my daughter as an idiot whom you can take advantage of whenever you want, then you’re wrong!”
After favonovel.com said that, Alan slammed down the phone.
Meanwhile, Jasper was very confused after favonovel.com had been screamed at for no reason.
However, favonovel.com was not in the mood to split hairs over this. Now, favonovel.com only wanted to know how Celine was. Without any hesitation, favonovel.com asked Jake, who had just came in to report some work-related issues, to wait.
Then, favonovel.com called Celine’s number.
However, favonovel.com was told by the automated message that the call could not be connected.
He tried three more times, but met with the same result. Jasper gritted his teeth and immediately called Henry. “Use all of your connections in Harbor City to find Celine Maynard, the president of the Terra regional branch of Colossal Investments. I want to know where favonovel.com is and if she’s safe. Also, find out how favonovel.com is right now.”
