1855 United States Tycoon

Chapter 351

“Today, the McDonald family admitted for the first time that their leader, the legendary businessman, scientist, and inventor in the history of United States, Mr. Scrooge McDonald, fell into a deep coma. Statement from the’Salvation’ Hospital People said that after a difficult rescue, Mr. McDonald’s life characteristics are now very stable, but Mr. McDonald was in a deep coma when he was sent to the hospital. Until now, we still haven’t been able to wake him up. Mr. Downer is still alive. As for when he wakes up, it’s up to God’s arrangement.

In this regard, we interviewed Dr. Dalton from Yale University School of Medicine. Dr. Dalton is an expert in brain and nerves. He made this interpretation:

Apparently, Mr. MacDonald had suffered severe blood loss before being sent to the hospital. This leads to insufficient blood supply to the brain, which results in severe hypoxia in the brain. According to the latest research results, among the various organs of the human body, the brain consumes the most oxygen and is also the most sensitive organ to lack of oxygen. In the case of extreme hypoxia, brain cells may be severely and irreversibly damaged. For this reason, when there is extreme hypoxia, the brain will suspend its work to reduce oxygen consumption and prevent too many brain cells from dying due to hypoxia. So people will fall into a deep coma at this time. In a sense, this is a self-protection mechanism of the brain. As for why, when the hypoxia problem was resolved, Mr. MacDonald still did not wake up. There are two possibilities. One possibility is that the hypoxia was so severe that too many cells in the brain went dormant, which resulted in the need for very strong and effective stimulation to wake him up, and what kind of stimulation It is very powerful and effective. It is different for anyone. This naturally means that Mr. MacDonald may wake up tomorrow, or he may never wake up. Everything depends on God’s will; another possibility Even worse, that is, many of Mr. Macdonald’s brain cells have died due to severe hypoxia, but the brainstem that is more resistant to hypoxia and is more preferentially supplied with oxygen still maintains vitality. , If so, Mr. Macdonald will never be able to wake up…”

Stanford put down the newspaper in his hand and twirled in the study excitedly.

“In a coma? I don’t know when they will wake up? How long do they want to lie to everyone? If Scrooge was really just in a coma, how could Dorothea just look at him and leave the hospital? Rosia didn’t believe he would wake up again. Moreover, although his brother, Carol, came to visit him afterwards, he also stayed in the hospital for a while and left, and even afterwards Haven’t been here again. What does this mean? Doesn’t it mean that Carol also doesn’t think Scrooge has any chance of waking up? Now they claim that Scrooge is just in a coma, and it’s all because they have already There is no way to continue to conceal this fact. Today’s McDonald’s consortium clearly has a lot of problems, whether external or internal. If Scrooge is still alive, even if he is still very weak, he must show up. Anyway, as long as he comes out to show his face, as long as he can make even a single sound, whether it is an aggressive foreign enemy or an internal careerist who is ready to move, he will be shocked by him. But he just can’t make a sound, which will only let him. More people were skeptical. So at this time, they simply admitted that Scrooge was in a coma, and wanted to use the possibility that Scrooge might wake up at any time to terrorize their enemies. This is really ridiculous!” Stanford said to himself. Muttering to himself, “No, I have to do something. This is a feast of capital. If you move slowly, you won’t be able to eat anything!”…

“Don’t worry if we are slow and we will not be able to eat.” Morgan said to his allies. Recently, many allies have blamed Morgan for his slow action, which may make them miss a good opportunity.

“My friends, a huge and fierce whale was hit by a harpoon, but it was still strong and powerful, able to fight whalers constantly. Of course, in the end, the whale was killed, although several whales were killed. People die too. My friends, tell me, who is the one who gets the most benefits in this battle, is the first whaling ship sailor who rushes on to desperately, or the shipowner who hires them? MacDonald The consortium lost Scrooge, this was indeed a fatal blow, but this giant whale still has strength, its teeth are still sharp, and its strength has not been exhausted. At this time, rushing forward, but it is a very dangerous thing. Things. Let’s not rush, let the little guys rush up first. Anyway, for them, they move slowly, but they really can’t eat anything. They have no choice at all. And we can be at a safe distance Observe and see how much power the giant whale has to resist. We will go up to collect the fruit when the most advantageous and safest combination is the best.” Morgan explained to his allies.

“But even so, we can’t delay too much.” A banker said, “The situation is so clear now, we should take action.”

“Yes, the internal struggles within the McDonald family have been semi-public. It is obvious that Dorothea McDonald and Carol McDonald have clearly clashed for family rights. Dorothea was eager to promote the research and development of alternatives to sulfonamides because of gaining control of McDonald’s Chemical and Pharmaceutical Companies. Carol, who controls McDonald’s Venture Capital, was obviously holding back. He even claimed that. The new plan has been overrun by a lot, and after losing the guidance of the greatest medical scientist Scrooge, it is a foolish act to continue thinking about this plan investment. But Ms. Dorothea seems determined to move on. For this plan, Ms. Dorothea seemed to form an alliance with Rockefeller with the oil well in her hand to deal with Carol together. I think we can start to act now.” Another banker said.

A long time ago, when Scrooge talked about Morgan with his relatives, he once said: “Morgan integrated Wall Street’s financial capital through an alliance. This is very remarkable. This allows him to use very little. Capital control, mobilization is almost no less than our capital. But his model also has a weakness, that is, he has no compulsory control over the allies he joins. The reason why they obey him is only because of him before. It has been proved that he is more intelligent than others. He is more able to lead everyone to make a fortune. However, if one day, there is a contradiction in internal interests, or when there is a large enough interest in front of us, how to balance the internal It will become a great difficulty. Sometimes, in order to maintain unity, Morgan may have to make some compromises and do things that he thinks are not yet mature.”

If Morgan knew about Scrooge’s statement, he would definitely agree with it. For example, now, under pressure from his allies, he has to act.

…

The changes in the Macdonald family not only affected the United States, but also Europe.

The Macdonald Consortium also has a lot of business in Europe. Unlike in the United States, most of these companies in Europe are joint-stock listed companies. This of course will give others more opportunities to take advantage of the fire.

“Hey, David, hello.” David just walked into the London stock exchange when he saw a guy greet him. David recognized that this man was a member of the Rothschild family, called Eugene.

“Mr. Eugene, you are good too. Seeing you look good, what good business have you made?” David asked smoothly.

“Ah, nothing? It’s just that I just bought back Fort Lafite from someone else at a suitable price.” Eugene said casually, looking indifferently.

“What?” David was taken aback. Because he knew very well who was the former owner of Fort Lafite. Not long ago, the Rothschild family gave this wine castle to the McDonald family. It was handed over to Scrooge’s wife Dorothea. Now this winery has actually returned to the hands of the Rothschild family. More importantly, as the agent of the Macdonald Consortium in London, he didn’t get any news. The business of such a winery was completely excluded.

So David immediately remembered the recent rumors. According to the rumors, Dorothea and Carol had a conflict over the future direction of the consortium. Even dismantling each other. If this statement is reliable, then Dorothea’s approach is understandable. She needs money now, and a lot of money.

“Why, surprised? David, do you want to have a drink together after work?” Eugene asked.

David wanted to refuse him, but when he realized that the Macdonald consortium might have really gone wrong, he suddenly felt that hanging on such a tree might not be a wise thing.

…

“If it weren’t for you to make rules that these things should be kept secret from everyone who unexpectedly happened to us, how could David get mixed up with the Rothschilds? Carol, how long will your fishing operation last? Do it now, otherwise, more and more traitors will really emerge. Also, no matter what, you can’t do it to my relatives!” After learning that David and the Rothschilds have been in frequent contact Afterwards, Catherine said to the Carol brothers and Dorothea.

“We have no plans to use force in Europe. You can rest assured about this.” Scrooge comforted her.
