America’s Big Hero

Chapter 275:

The racial conflict in Los Angeles has risen to the level of riots, and all sectors of American society are paying attention.

From Mayor Tom Bradley to California Governor Pete Wilson, including Reagan.

I don't know if it was due to procrastination or other reasons. The 2,000-strong National Guard requested by Mayor Tom has not yet arrived.

Reagan was already preparing his speech.

However, no one expected to see such a scene on TV early in the morning.

Mayor Tom is totally stupid, Umbrella, Sean Rockefeller!

Of course he knew this person, but he never expected that the umbrella would be involved in this riot.

However, it's not surprising when you think about it.

He also heard that Sean made a scene in the conference room and forced the seven major companies to agree to make Sean Pictures the eighth largest.

At this time, it is not uncommon for the eight major companies to think of asking for an umbrella.

I just didn't expect that the umbrella would be so ruthless!

"How many people died in the conflict in Los Angeles last night?" Mayor Tom immediately asked the team.

"It's impossible to estimate. Dozens of people are certain. Every day, there are several deaths in Los Angeles in various conflicts and shootings. It was so violent last night."

"Any reports?"

"Of course not!"

The fact is that many conflicts have killed people, and both sides will tacitly not call the police.

Neither side is a clean person, and it is troublesome for everyone to call the police.

As long as the police are not reported, there will be no records. This is the case in any country.

"How to deal with this matter? Will it escalate the conflict?" Tom scratched his head irritably.

Everyone in the team briefly discussed and shook their heads. "We don't think so. The umbrella is a private organization without any political color, so there is no way to apply 'racial discrimination'."

"Moreover, we doubt whether those rioters have the courage to look for a protective umbrella. They are not government organizations, and they don't care about their reputation or votes. They are really unscrupulous in their actions."

"To be honest, we think that the blood can calm the rioting crowd a lot, and it has played a positive role in stabilizing the situation in Los Angeles."

"Okay, needless to say!" Tom interrupted: "As long as it doesn't make the situation in Los Angeles more chaotic, prepare a speech immediately, I want to give a speech to the public."

"OK!"

…

On the other hand, Governor Pete Wilson's team came to a similar conclusion.

"Tell the National Guard to go."

The response speed of civil organizations is so fast, it will only appear that government organizations are procrastinating, and everyone's face is dull.

In the governor's view, the Eighth Congress is expressing dissatisfaction with the outside world.

Yes, the government's response and response speed are dissatisfied.

The Eight is not only eight world-renowned film companies, but also eight major financial sponsors.

In addition, the Big Eight can influence almost all Hollywood stars, and stars can influence the direction of fans' votes in elections.

There are countless things that celebrities have sided with politicians, and they all vote with their feet anyway.

Therefore, the power of public opinion influence of the Eighth Congress is so powerful that no politician dares to underestimate it, and is even less willing to offend it easily.

…

Reagan rubbed his brows in distress, "This Sean can always give me some new tricks."

"It's not bad either." Old Bu smiled, "This is a blow to the donkey party, look, look, what they're doing, Hollywood needs a private company to protect it, it's really outrageous. "

Reagan laughed, whether this statement is correct or not, he will give Sean a platform.

It's not because of previous favors, it's because of Hollywood.

Reagan was a Hollywood actor. During the campaign, Hollywood made great efforts!

He's going to give Hollywood a platform anyway.

It is precisely because Reagan came to power that the control of Hollywood Media Group began to be gradually loosened, and Murdoch was only one of them.

Others, including Universal, Disney, Paramount, Warner, etc., have formed media groups covering film, television and music.

Eight is entertainment, entertainment is eight.

…

With the reports of major TV stations, news about the Umbrella Company's response to the riots has been enriched.

During this period of time, the news of the umbrella directly suppressed the riot itself, and the major TV stations followed each other.

From the scene to the police, from the police to the hospital.

Soon the context of things became clear.

In a short period of about 40 minutes, 7 waves of people went to Hollywood, all of which were blocked by the security of the Umbrella Company.

"According to our understanding, because the riot itself almost paralyzed the traffic, in these seven conflicts, the ambulance from the hospital could not arrive in time, which led to the missed time for the best treatment, which resulted in a total of more than 160 deaths."

When this number came out, everyone in front of the TV was horrified, **** it, crazy!

A day in Los Angeles is less chaotic than the number of people who die in just 40 minutes in the morning.

The titles of Butcher, Executioner, Murderer, etc. have all been poured into the umbrella company's head.

"So, more than 20 people in our gang died in the hands of the umbrella?" said a sturdy Latino man with tattoos in a villa in South Los Angeles with a twisted face.

"Yes, they were all killed!" A man sitting next to him sighed.

"I said it early, don't participate, don't participate, don't listen, Fake, Fake!" The man cursed loudly irritably.

Several people in the house did not speak.

After a while, someone said, "What should I do now?"

"What to do? What to do? What to do?" The man started roaring again: "Organize hundreds of thousands of people to attack the position of the protective umbrella, fight with them, and then see how many people can be killed!?"

"That's a real **** professional military organization, we're gangsters, gangsters, gangsters."

"I also know that it's impossible to fight them head-on, but now we have to do something to prevent our reputation from being trampled on like this."

"I don't **** know!" the man cursed irritably.

After taking a few breaths, he asked, "What's the reaction from Florence, what about the blood gang and the lame gang?"

"They are all silent."

Apparently, several other gangs were also in trouble.

The business of the gang is drug trafficking, kidnapping, extortion, and robbery, and the business of the umbrella is better than killing people.

It is impossible to challenge others' careers with your own interests.

With other people, gangsters can play tricks, but when they meet the umbrella, what they think about is how to talk well,

It doesn't look ashamed.

The gangster forces in Los Angeles fell silent.

Wait,

Wait for the other gangs to speak first!

…

The protective umbrella hit the head hard this time, and it really poured cold water on the riot, and the restless anger was forcibly cooled.

Just as the gang pondered what to do, a Black Hawk gunship took off from Los Angeles Airport and headed straight for Hollywood.

All hanging black eagles, full rocket nests, full hellfire missiles, and a cannon hanging below!

The pilot flew around Hollywood in a posture of disrespecting six relatives!

The helicopters of various radio stations consciously retreated 100 meters when they saw the Black Hawk.

Through the lens of the TV station, the audience in front of the TV looked horizontally and vertically from all angles, and watched it repeatedly, only to see two words in the logo of the protective umbrella on the fuselage,

Arrogant!

This is not the end, not long after, news came that two more armored vehicles drove out from the airport.

The armored vehicle still has the logo of the umbrella!

"That, what." The major gangs became calmer after seeing the scene on TV.

Those who come out to mix are all for the sake of knife music, there is absolutely no need to fight and kill!

"I remember the Jonas family over there in New Jersey."

"There is such a family, but I have never been in contact with it."

"The Jonas family is in Newark, and the umbrella headquarters is also in Newark. It can't be unrelated!"

"Find a way to contact them and express our attitude on 18th Street."

"Mmmm, that's a good idea."

The two sides are on the east coast and the west coast. There is no contact at all, and many things are not understood.

Of course, it is not difficult to inquire about the news, after all, there is a line that can actually connect them.

Poisonous...

Only after inquiring did I find out that there really is someone there, Latino, Gustavo.

Everyone has ties to Mexican drug lords, all of them are predominantly Mexican, and their business is not the same.

That's easy, got Gustavo's phone through a relationship.

After a long time, Gustavo hung up the phone, reached out and pushed the glasses on the bridge of his nose, in a good mood.

As long as they are watching TV, it is not difficult to think of the reasons why these people are asking themselves about Jonas.

Gustavo also doesn't know what Jonas did during the riots in Los Angeles.

But he knew that the moment these gangs contacted Jonas, it was over.

It's not how brutal Jonas is, it's Sean.

Gustavo knows Sean too well. As long as the Jonas family's tentacles extend, Sean will definitely not allow people in Los Angeles who can threaten the Jonas family to exist.

The four major gangs, there is no help, wait to die, farewell!

On the other hand, the people from the four major gangs were also confused.

I don't know if I don't ask, I'm startled when I ask.

This Jonas family is not poisonous, but collects property taxes...

This Jonas family replaced the original old Mafia family Dimio in just over a year.

This Jonas is closely related to the umbrella.

Bah, black and white collusion!

Not to mention how shocking these big gangs were, but it strengthened their determination to contact the umbrella through Jonas immediately.

Black and white can be regarded as let people play to understand.

…

On the other side, in Sean's villa.

Hanging up the phone, Jonas smiled and looked at Sean and Bill, "Gustavo, he informed me that several gangs on 18th Street have asked him about me."

"It's almost the same." Sean took a sip from the teacup before saying, "Meet them, um, in Hollywood."

"Haha, I'm afraid they dare not come." Bill laughed loudly.

"If you don't dare to come, it doesn't matter. You don't have the courage to do it. What a gang, just die." Sean said lightly.

"Yes!" Bill and Jonas nodded.

One is pure black, and the other is a combination of black, white and gray. The two did not take the current four major gangs seriously at all.

…

When the time came to more than 10 o'clock, Tom Bradley came to the TV station and was the first to stand up and give a TV speech, "I support you in expressing your anger with words, but I don't want you to resort to violence! This way Doing just undermines all the positive efforts we've made in the past..."

As one of the black leaders at this stage, Tom's remarks set the tone for things, and the riot was wrong.

This is equivalent to making the entire riot action completely untenable.

It can be regarded as an indirect drag on the actions of the umbrella company.

On this side, Tom finished his speech, and on the other side, Washington, President Reagan also delivered a televised speech.

Reagan made a public statement expressing his strong opposition to the riots, and pointed out on TV that he would not tolerate that the city of Los Angeles was in a state of 'anarchy' and would not tolerate any behavior that brought riots to the society and the country, and would give a firm and severe counterattack.

Counterattack, these two are very level!

Sean said it was great.

…

"Help me communicate with the umbrella?"

"Of course, that's fine, we're all black brothers."

"Don't ask me to be so polite. In this way, after half an hour, someone will come to pick you up."

"Okay, that's it, hang up." Jonas hung up the phone without waiting for an answer.

On the other side, the boss of the Blood Gang babbled a few times with a bewildered expression until a blind tone came over the phone.

"What's going on?" asked the second-in-command of the Blood Gang next to him.

"I don't **** know. He said that someone will pick me up within half an hour." The blood gang boss hung up the phone with a blank look on his face.

Damn, are you the Riddler!

It's not that Jonas is rude, it's mainly to answer the phone of four people.

After getting in touch here, Bill immediately instructed Black Hawk to set off to pick him up.

At this time, the advantages of general-purpose helicopters can be seen.

If this is Apache, then in addition to killing people,

Still kill.

…

Ten minutes later...

A small building in the Inglewood area suddenly jumped up.

A group of old blacks shouted in panic, looking for weapons, looking for cover, and whatever.

"It's all **** quiet, shit!" The blood gang boss shouted bitterly, but his body was shaking.

Any gang leader will tremble when he finds out that he has been pointed at by 38 rockets and 8 hellfires.

The armed helicopter with the protective umbrella that appeared on the TV suddenly appeared at the headquarters of the Blood Gang.

In fact, he vaguely understood the meaning of picking him up...

Especially after seeing a soldier descending straight down.

"Mr. Tony, isn't it, we have a request."

"Ah, good." Boss Tony showed a smile and forced himself to calm down. He reached out and touched the big gold chain around his neck. He must not lose his arrogance.

After greeting the two men, Tony followed the soldier and climbed up the rope ladder.

To be honest, he is rich and not fake, but he has never been in this kind of military armed helicopter, it is very novel.

They are also rich people, and the boss of the gang can't be as handsome as the rich people who do regular business.

Helicopter takes off, turns, targets lame gang.

Armstrong's consulting firm already has information on the major gangs in Los Angeles, including where they are located and who are their main members. Just click on the map and ask for it.

In fact, many things are known to everyone, and the police also know...

A few minutes later, Tony looked at the crippled people below, grinned, and laughed.

After a while, the boss of the lame gang also climbed up, and stunned when he saw Tony.

"Why are you here!"

"Nonsense, of course, my identity ranks before you as an idiot, for all to see, isn't it?" Tony was complacent, and he was a person who longed for the approval and support of others.

The more those who make a profit, the more eager they are to be recognized by the mainstream society.

"Fake, **** you." The boss of the lame gang didn't know how to refute, so he could only curse fiercely.

In this way, Tony laughed even more unscrupulously.

The lame boss's breathing is getting heavier and heavier. Black people don't have the kind of culture that kills fathers and enemies and calms down.

I can't bear it anymore, I don't need to bear it anymore, I'm going to fight with Tony when I jump up.

The two sides, six people scuffled together in a blink of an eye, and the helicopter inevitably shook in the air.

"Stop, **** it!" The soldiers of the two security companies immediately took out their guns and put them on the foreheads of the two bosses.

In fact, as soon as the helicopter swayed, the two bosses froze.

Hundreds of meters in the sky, without a heel under your feet, you naturally have no bottom in your heart.

Well now, there are steps down.

"Okay, what I want to say is that the pick-up route is completely based on the distance." It was an old black who came to pick up the plane with an umbrella, put down his gun and sighed, "All the strongholds of your gangs are on our map. marked."

Saying that, a map was taken in front of the two of them.

Lame Gang, Blood Gang: ? ? ?

Looking at the densely packed various labels on the map, the two looked confused.

No, you are an East Coast security company, why do you have an irrelevant West Coast gang map?

An inexplicable chill rose.

The Umbrella man could clearly see what the two sides were thinking, "Military organization, man, isn't intelligence the most important thing?"

You are right, tell me, it must not have been a long time to plot against us, right?

With that said, the helicopter stopped and began to land.

The two who got off the helicopter saw the old black man in a suit standing not far away.

There are camouflage uniforms all around, and the man is very eye-catching.

"Tom, Tony, hahaha, man, finally seeing you guys." Jonas came up with a big laugh.

"Jonas!" The two of them shouted in unison and walked up quickly.

Jonas looked at them amusingly. You bumped me, I pushed you, and they tore at each other, not letting the other go ahead.

In the end, Crippled Tom got a little stronger and took the lead.

Playing a set of 'fist skills' to greet black people, it seems that the two sides are familiar with each other.

Black is like that.

After chatting for a while, the helicopter came back in a blink of an eye, and the people from 18th Street and 13th arrived.

After meeting, Jonas greeted several people into the building and ordered them to have a few cups of coffee. The atmosphere was a little awkward.

The four major gangs have their own territory on weekdays and are hostile to each other, especially the brothers below, there are fights every day, and there are dead people at both ends in three days.

If it weren't for the sudden arrival of a dragon crossing the river from Los Angeles, the four of them would hardly have met.

"Okay, I almost understand everyone's intentions." Jonas simply cut to the chase. "The owner of the umbrella said I can do it. What do you think?"

The four of them looked at each other and nodded in unison. You have already mobilized their armed helicopters.

"The conflict between the people below means nothing, business is business, you don't have to worry about that."

As soon as these words came out, the four big gang leaders Qi Qi breathed a sigh of relief.

What they fear now is that after the riots, the police will launch revenge.

They are not afraid of the simple police, the two sides have mutual consideration and interests.

What they're afraid of is some kind of agreement between the top and the umbrella, and that sucks.

Jonas didn't seem to see a few people relieved, and continued on his own: "Please come here because there are other things to explain, we have always thought that things are stated on the bright side, this is simply enough, and it is not What unnecessary misunderstandings will arise."

Hearing Jonas say this, the four of them raised their hearts again.

Head, this word made them panic.

"Umbrella will set up a branch on the West Coast in the future, in Los Angeles, and the Jonas family will also be based in Los Angeles."

"When the time comes, please ask the four of you to come along. It's convenient."

The four stood up suddenly, gritted their teeth and looked at Jonas.

Jonas lowered his head, took out a box of cigars from his pocket, took out one, and trimmed it slowly.

The action is neither fast nor slow, it has its own charm.

I've been learning for a long time, pretending to be a powerful weapon.

The four of them just stood there, not knowing what to say for a while.

If the umbrella wants to enter Los Angeles, it must have communicated with the city government. This kind of thing is not under their control at all.

And once the umbrella entered Los Angeles, they couldn't stop the Jonas family from following.

Can't think of a way to stop it.

If it wasn't for this riot, they could still use it as a bargaining chip.

Now…

Damn Rod King!

They are out of cards.

"What are you doing standing up? Here, a serious Cuban cigar, from the Guantanamo base, taste it, it tastes very good." Jonas picked up a cigar and smoked it on his own.

"Okay, no matter if you called me today or not, none of this will change."

"Say something political."

"Mayor Tom Bradley's campaign manifesto has always emphasized addressing the growing policing problem in Los Angeles, but he's black, and he's never been able to really control the LAPD, as you should be well aware."

"The emergence of the umbrella allowed him to see the power from a third party. We have had successful experience in New Jersey, so whether it is for political future or for power, Mayor Tom needs an umbrella."

"And then there's the economics."

"The upper class needs a stable, calm and harmonious Los Angeles, which can maximize the interests of everyone."

"Why, don't you smoke cigars?"

"It's so weird, haha." Jonas smiled and looked up at the four of them, "It's okay, I know it's hard to make a decision, I'll wait for a few calls, I'm a good talker, if there's anything, let's communicate. ."

"We said it first, Jianghu is not fighting and killing." Jonas stood up, regardless of whether the four wanted to, he took the other's hand and shook it for himself.

"That's it, I'll arrange a car to take you back."

Looking at the four who walked away without saying a word, Jonas smiled,

Jianghu is not fighting, killing, killing, killing, killing, killing...

Reasonable?

That's the official

square?

Well, that doesn't have to be...

However, in the underground world, kill all the unreasonable people, and the rest will want to reason with you...

...

…

Wuyi took the bear children out to play, and temporarily used the mobile phone to code, which was a bit frustrating.

No way, I haven't brought my child out for a long time.

Middle-aged people...

When I go back and wait for my child to start school, I will actively make up for it.
