Chapter 239: Usurpation
At Morningstar Military, no one really knows what kind of person the CEO is and what he can do, but whoever has a problem, when there is a problem that cannot be solved, they will ask him for help. Whether it is the military leader of a great power or an international military bloc, it is necessary to recognize the existence of this person at a certain time.
He never prevaricates, and he never makes empty promises, as long as he promises you, you can put aside big things, because he will never disappoint you. You don't have to be his friend, as long as you pay him. He is the true king of the mercenary world, but very few people know his true identity, and everyone doesn't even know his name, just call him a general.
He liked it, and he was proud of it.
Many have theorized that the general may well have served at the top of the North Atlantic Treaty Organization, citing his relationship with the NATO Military Commission. Moreover, the general himself also has a deep influence on the US military.
Just looking at his appearance, it is difficult to imagine what kind of character this sick old man will be. His health has deteriorated in recent months, to the point that he always has a cylinder next to his wheelchair and a tiny tube that carries oxygen just under his nose.
The general suddenly felt a trace of sadness, even in a bad and harsh environment, he would not have felt hopeless. But now he seemed to have nothing to do but despair. It turns out that this is aging.
It is said that women are afraid of old age, and men are actually afraid of it. Since ancient times, famous generals have been like red faces, and they do not let the world see white heads. Because the stunning beauty is more difficult to bear old age and decay, and because of the invincible famous general, it is even more difficult to bear the day when he can no longer fight. Time, as cruel to all.
"General, someone is asking to see you. The young attendant beside the old man bowed his head and said.
"It's Joe," the general said slowly, turning around.
The young squire nodded, "Yes, and there are several other board members. ”
The general frowned and said, "How many people do you mean?"
"Eight, eight people in total, general. The squire whispered.
The general sighed and said, "It's really unexpected, let them in"
The squire nodded and walked out. A moment, Joe. Claire and the others walked in. He looked at the CEO and said, "General, there's something I think I have to inform you about in advance." ”
Say. The general said with his eyes half-closed.
In the afternoon, the company prepared to hold a board meeting to discuss a proposal. We don't expect you to be able to attend given your current state of health, but as a matter of practice, you must be informed in advance. Joe said calmly.
"Oh, what kind of motion actually has to be labored, eight seats out of the entire twelve seats on the board," the general said slowly.
"If you want me to say, it's not just eight seats on the board. Rather, all the members of the Board of Directors, except for the first three seats and the seventh seat, which is closer to you. We are preparing a resolution to determine the new company leadership. Your Excellency, your time in control of the Morning Star is coming to an end, and the new leadership will bring about new changes. Joe said calmly.
"New leadership, you mean with you eight people," the general sneered, "you are nothing but bureaucrats, speculators, mercenary leaders. You are nothing but a rabble. The existence and operation of a private military company is not as simple as you think. Once you are in power, you will lose at least 80% of your business. ”
"You don't have to worry about that. Joe shrugged, "Once a few of you leave, someone else will come in immediately." I have contacted several retired generals with considerable backgrounds who are very interested in the positions offered by private military companies. Of course, using their respective influences, we are still able to stabilize the operation of the company. ”
"Looks like you're all ready," the general said lightly.
"Of course, as the founder of the company, we will respectfully ask you to leave. We even prepare a contract of high value to buy the shares in your hands. As long as you're willing to let go, you'll still be a friend of Morningstar. Joe smiled.
"In other words, if I don't let go, I will become an enemy of the Morningstar Company" The general sneered, "Joe, look at this group of people around you, even in the face of me, an old and sick old man, and a few people who dare to speak loudly, you really think you can control the Morningstar Company"
"You're no longer a threat. Qiao said slowly, "As for the second seat in the company, we have never seen it for so many years, and some people even suspect that this person does not exist at all, but is just a fictitious title you set up for the sake of autocracy." Our biggest problem at the moment is the silver wolf, but now that he is in Africa, he is simply out of reach. ”
"As soon as he returns," said the old man slowly, "his loyalty to me is unquestionable, and you will kill yourselves." ”
"Then we won't let him come back. We've sent people. Make sure he can't go back to the United States. Joe smiled slightly.
The general shook his head and said, "You can't kill him." No one will be able to kill him. ”
"I didn't say I was going to kill him. I'm just going to selectively make some of the old files public. Don't forget, the silver wolf used to do a lot of dirty work. This will cause a lot of concern, and the top management of Morningstar Private Military Company, with a bad track record, has repeatedly organized illegal military activities at home and abroad. Joe smiled, "From now on, he will be the target of everyone, and we are not the only ones who will deal with him." ”
"You're going to expose him and use national intelligence and security to restrain him. The general's face changed slightly, "But if you do this, you'll drag the Morningstar Company into it." Considering what we've done before, it's even possible that Morningstar Military Security will actually be banned. ”
"No, since I have evidence that is unfavorable to the silver wolf, I naturally have something unfavorable to the U.S. government. If I am in a hurry, I will completely expose this information. This is even more exciting than Snowden's revelations. So I'm sure they'll compromise. Joe said with a smile. "You see, for your honorable retirement, I have made very careful arrangements. Now you can go with peace of mind. ”
"Do you really think that if you get rid of me and the Silver Wolf, you'll get the entire Morning Star," the general smiled wryly, "Maybe in your eyes, I'm just an old guy who doesn't let go of power." But in fact, you are wrong, it's not that I don't want to leave, but I know that once I leave, Morningstar Military Security Company will no longer exist. You won't end well. ”
