Global monopoly of technology

Bluestar Technology Group headquarters, CEO office.

Zhang Bowen entered Luo Sheng’s office and reported: “Mr. Luo, the North American news, NSA requires us to immediately delete all negative content that is spreading on BV video sites, Reddit forums, BlueSpace, MicroBlog and other online platforms. Do we follow?”

Hearing this, Luo Sheng thought for a moment and then made a decisive decision: “Let the company’s legal team thoroughly study the laws of the United States, including the local laws of each state, and then formulate plans based on their game rules, as long as it does not violate the local laws. If you can refuse, you must refuse."

Bluestar Technology Group currently employs up to 80,000 people worldwide. Among them, the legal team in North America alone is as high as more than 3,700. It has such a strong legal team lineup, fake?

Lao Zhang hesitated for a moment and said with a hesitant expression: "Will this be too tough? In this way, I am afraid that the company will completely become a thorn in the eye and a thorn in the flesh of the North American authorities. I can't wait to get rid of it immediately."

Luo Sheng smiled, leaning back on the boss chair and said lightly, "It is already, and no matter how much you lick, the final result will be the same. He will still try his best to kill you, so give up the fantasy. Just give up. We will strictly guard against that red line, and never play beyond the scope of the rules of the game that they set. It will not be possible to hurt me."

Zhang Bowen sweated profusely and was completely convinced, anyway he was ashamed.

I'm afraid that someone else would have been paralyzed after doing this kind of thing, but Luo Sheng is so rigid, anyway, Lao Zhang feels that he definitely does not have such courage.

Luo Sheng added: "We need to study the opponent's game rules and judge the opponent's bottom line. At the same time, we must also have a judgment on ourselves. What is the maximum loss we can accept?"

Speaking of this, Luo Sheng looked at Lao Zhang: "So the worst situation we can accept is nothing more than withdrawing from the North American market. Then we will withdraw. Starting from the mid to late first half of this year, the company's strategic focus has shifted to China. The company's business has been diversified one after another, and its ability to fight back is different from the past four or five years ago. The times have changed. The mainland market is the future, so the North American market is lost.

Luo Sheng smiled: "This is just the worst plan. In fact, I don't think it will be so easy to throw away. If the old Amtrak wants to help me out, only to amend the law. Haha, this almost exists in the theory. Doing it is not something that affects one or two interest groups within Lao America. What do you think is the probability that the bill will be passed? We also have friends in North America. Before doing it, we must figure out who is the enemy and who is a friend. "

Lao Zhang couldn't help but analyze: "Wall Street is our friend, and our enemies are mainly concentrated in some IT technology giants in Silicon Valley."

Luo Sheng snapped his fingers, and said calmly, "It's easy to figure it out, Lao Zhang, you go to host the second large-scale release of 3A corporate bonds by Bluestar Technology Group. We are friends on Wall Street. Connecting feelings cannot rely on family routines and drinking, but green paper tickets. Only with banknotes can friends on Wall Street be firmly tied to the chariot of the Bluestar Technology Group."

Zhang Bowen has no objection to this. Luo Sheng's words are calm and easy-going, but no one can replace his authority in the company.

Lao Zhang asked decisively: "How much are you going to send?"

Luo Sheng said without hesitation: "20 billion, US dollars!"

Bluestar Technology Group is really super rich now, and its free cash flow has exceeded 24 billion US dollars. The decision to issue large-scale corporate bonds this time is definitely not because the company itself lacks money.

In Luo Sheng's words, it is to contact friends on Wall Street to give gifts and money. If the $20 billion debt is released, it means that Bluestar Technology will owe Wall Street a huge debt of more than $30 billion.

There is a ridiculous saying that when you owe the bank 3 million, you are the grandson in front of the banker, but when you owe the bank 30 billion, you are the grandson in front of the banker.

Because the bank is afraid that you will go bankrupt and you will be unlucky, and the debt you borrowed will eventually be lost.

Luo Sheng has not only decided to issue 20 billion US dollars in debt, but will continue to issue bonds in the future. The amount depends on actual needs.

Of course, debt issuance is also risky, and it will also face the possibility of pressing debt from Wall Street. This may bring a certain possibility for Wall Street to short Bluestar Technology and annex Bluestar Technology.

This is possible.

Of course, Luo Sheng thought of this potential hazard. The question is that the times have changed and the Greater China market has taken off. It will not take long for three to four years. By then, Bluestar Technology will be able to maintain the world only by relying on the single mainland market. The status of the top technology giant group.

The market must be guaranteed, the technology must be guaranteed, and the capital must also be guaranteed. The free cash flow of Bluestar Technology now has reached US$24 billion.

With these three guarantees, Luo Sheng dares to be so emboldened. With these guarantees, the possibility that Bluestar Technology will be annexed due to Wall Street's debt is also in theory.

NSA headquarters, Fort Meade, Maryland.

NSA is the abbreviation of the North American National Security Agency, also known as the National Secret Service. It is the hub of the US intelligence agency. Its headquarters covers an area of ​​15 hectares, and its scale is larger than the CIA headquarters. It is known as the "mysterious labyrinth."

The previous plan to set up a set for Luo Sheng was led by the NSA, assisted by the CIA and FBI, a rare joint operation of the three major agencies.

However, this plan finally ended in bankruptcy.

It can be said that NSA is the organization that employs the largest number of PhDs in mathematics, PhDs in computers, and linguists in the world, and it is also the most mysterious intelligence agency in North America. Because of its mystery, its acronym NSA is often called "No-Such-Agency".

In the past few days, the NSA has encountered a big trouble with no preparation at all, which caused the incident to emerge suddenly, and the response was messy.

At this moment, in a conference room in this mysterious headquarters, several NSA heads gathered together, all watching a video.

The media released the latest content of the interview with Snowden. Snowden in the video said: "...I know that my actions will make me suffer disaster, but if the federal government’s secret decree, unequal pardons and unlawful When I resist execution and wait for these to dominate the world I love, these are immediately exposed, and I will be very satisfied."

"Xiete! He is treason, he should be gallows if he comes back after arrest!" The NSA leader suddenly roared angrily.

After the "Prism Project" was exposed, the "Guardian", which was exclusively revealed this time, disclosed his identity at Snowden's request and admitted that he was responsible for the matter.

Snowden's name was known almost overnight.

"The focus now is not to arrest Joseph Snowden, but how to quell the current negative public opinion as soon as possible." Another participant said.

For the NSA to quell the current negative news is the most important thing, and Snowden has secretly left North America, seeking refuge in 20 countries, in addition to Luo Sheng secretly helping, WikiLeaks founder Julian Assange is also right He helped and obtained the Ecuadorian security pass for Snowden, but in the end Ecuador could not withstand the pressure of the North American authorities to revoke it.

Assange is now being investigated and interrogated by the FBI. At present, only the Russians are not afraid of the American emperor and have agreed to Snowden's request for asylum. With Luo Sheng secretly providing 10 million US dollars in funding, life is not too miserable. , But the state of his mental life is unknown, he must be very dissatisfied.

"Bluestar Technology Group refused to request the removal of video, audio and related negative Internet news." Another member of the meeting said.

When it comes to Bluestar Technology, NSA people are itchy. This time, they resolutely rejected NSA's request. The reason is quite good. The global people have the right to know. If it is revoked, it would violate North American law.

This is very angry!

Of course, the NSA thought of prosecution methods, but careful study found that the other party's handling methods, even if the lawsuit ended, there will be no effect.

The most irritating thing is that they did not expect Luo Sheng to be harmless on the surface, especially the performance of the previous hearings, but in a blink of an eye they were too tough when specific issues were involved.

It's hard and soft.

There is only one situation North America can handle, and that is to declare a state of emergency for the entire country, but this is obviously a bit unrealistic.

"It seems that this problem can only be solved through foreign affairs." A participant said, but this method is really unused.

If you negotiate with the other party, then the other party will definitely sit down and start negotiating terms. The Chinese savvy has already learned it.

Because of this, I don't want to solve this problem through foreign affairs channels, but at present, it seems that only this way can balance Bluestar Technology and Luo Sheng.

No way, Luo Sheng is not an American. Besides, he is not in the United States anymore, otherwise he can still use some means.

Regarding the bankruptcy of the previous plan for Luo Sheng, the NSA is now extremely sad, otherwise it will not be too simple to settle this matter.

The influence of Bluestar Technology Group on the Internet is definitely not to be underestimated. Without rigorous calculations, the total number of users of Bluestar Technology's "Family Bucket" has exceeded one-third of the global population, a single product worldwide. The number is above 300 million, even the newly launched cross-platform chat application WhatAPP, a new social product, has now accumulated more than 20 million users.

So Luo Sheng didn't hesitate at all about his own handling and coping methods. No matter how you lick the feet of the American emperor on this scale, he would constantly try to kill you.

Luo Sheng is not so boring to do things like hot faces and cold ass.

Will the North American market lose Luo Sheng and dare not pack the ticket, but with the exposure of the surveillance scandal, other overseas markets definitely have more advantages than disadvantages for Bluestar Technology Group, especially the European market.

This monitoring scandal can definitely provide a major boost for Bluestar Technology Group's cloud computing services, including the expansion of other services in Europe. This monitoring scandal can be said to have caused an uproar in the European Union.

This will inevitably cause Europeans to be more inclined to the solutions provided by Bluestar Technology Group.

"Now there is a tricky question, let's take a look." In the conference room, an NSA attendee turned over this document.

It was even more angry at first glance.

This information comes from Silicon Valley giants such as Google and Yahoo. They are about to announce that the NSA invaded the data centers of Yahoo, Google and other companies to secretly obtain user information.

Obviously, the Internet giants in Silicon Valley are about to dump the pot, in order to restore the confidence of market investors and users, and this pot can only let the NSA, which is not heavily indebted, bear it all.

If the NSA refuses, these Internet giants have also made it clear that there will be no further cooperation in the future.
