Chapter 886: 891

The story of Trojan horse slaughtering the city is very famous, so whether it's Troy in Chinese, Troy in English or other languages, as long as you say this word, people will basically associate with the corresponding events and the extended meaning of this word.

Simon's latest Trojan plan, as the name suggests, is still about invasion and infiltration.

This is mainly inspired by James's talk about letting Philip Leibold go to the U.S. Treasury Department for training at the last dinner.

Who controls America?

This has always been a hot topic.

Despite all the silly conspiracy theories, the United States is actually controlled by the country's elite.

The elite class in the United States is far more than the rich that ordinary people usually know. Although those who can be classified as the elite class are not too poor, it should be the elite group that controls the political, economic, military, cultural and other aspects of the country.

The westero system has a strong influence on the economy and culture of the United States, and relatively weak influence on the politics and military. It is precisely these two aspects that have a strong repression on the fields involved in the westero system.

If we want to make up for this shortcoming, we can definitely solve it not only by supporting the election campaign and attracting a group of members of Congress.

Not to mention anything else, James' arrangement with Philip made Simon realize that he ignored a very important non campaign official class in the United States, among which the more typical one is the U.S. presidential cabinet.

These huge official classes distributed in the US capital and local areas also have huge power to influence all aspects of US policies. This is not the most critical, but the more important point, because they are directly appointed by the White House or Congress and other departments, not elected. Relatively speaking, these positions are easier to obtain, less concerned by public opinion, unlimited term of office, and even more important It's hereditary.

Of course, there are also shortcomings.

If you don't pay attention, you may be replaced by your boss. That's why many people often see in the media that a certain department official in the United States is dismissed or resigns because of the certain incident.

However, as long as their own strength or backer is strong enough, this defect is not a defect.

It's a big deal. I'll take a break for a while. I'll just change another department and start over.

Many of the old politicians in the United States are in this state.

You can also use your leisure time to enter the private enterprise department to cash the dividends accumulated for so many years.

Just like Richard Cheney, who had no experience in business management after the old Bush stepped down, became CEO of Halliburton energy company. In recent years, the company has been in a mess, but Cheney is comfortable with tens of millions of dollars a year.

Westeros is already trying to take a stake in Gilead, a pharmaceutical start-up, and a director behind the scenes is doing the same.

In the future, as long as it brings enough benefits to the westero system, Simon will certainly not be stingy in this respect.

This year happens to be an election year.

Last time, he had no energy or strength to do so. This time, Simon is not going to miss the chance to get some key positions from the Clinton cabinet. We can't let go of Congress either. Many sensitive departments in Washington, such as the federal securities and Exchange Commission (SEC), the Federal Communications Commission (FCC) and so on, are actually subordinate to Congress.

And the military.

Simon also gradually realized that he had fallen into a misunderstanding.

The US military, no matter how high sounding its mission may be, serves us interest groups to a large extent.

The most typical are the wars around the millennium.

Now that the westero system is one of the large interest groups in the United States, Simon himself can try to use this force instead of trying to build the private arms of westero system. After all, private arms are sensitive in any case.

Having done so much, Simon certainly won't give up some layout because of this awakening. However, it is also possible to gradually infiltrate the strength of the westero system into the US military.

Simon intends to work in two ways. One direction is the civilian military in Washington, which can also be obtained through the spokesmen of the White House and Congress. On the other hand, he is directly looking for spokesmen in all sectors of the U.S. military. It is not difficult to implement it through Celia Miller, Simon's personal military assistant.

Simon initially considered whether to cultivate from the bottom, and then gave up. It's not that he didn't have the time and patience, but mainly that he didn't have to.

It's like Donald Rumsfeld, the former US Secretary of defense, who is a director of Geely at this time.

Other people can do it, and it's easier for Simon.

The most important thing in the westrow system now is this kind of board position.

Not to mention a series of enterprises directly under the westero system, with the continuous expansion of cersei capital, the affiliated enterprises of the three subsidiaries, especially Heiyan asset management company, are numerous, not to mention the directors who take money by name, even the CEO position of Halliburton company, Simon can afford it.It is also a hidden rule for everyone to enter private enterprises after senior officials leave their posts.

It's very convenient to operate.

Even if some people want to deal with the westero system in the future, they will not easily use these things as excuses, because this is tantamount to destroying everyone's jobs. It is not impossible to commit suicide every minute in a car accident. After all, the world is so dangerous.

The further infiltration of American politics and military is the Trojan plan that Simon recently considered.

In the northern suburb of Greenwich.

Sophia and Simon are nestled together on the sofa in a living room of the villa. The TV is softly ringing. As the woman reads Simon's recent notes on two projects, she says, "the question now is how to choose the staff and how to ensure their loyalty to the westero system, right?"

Simon put his arms around Sophia's soft waist, nodded, then shook his head slightly: "it's really a bit of a hassle to choose a hand. However, my goal is not to ensure that these people are absolutely loyal, but to bring them together as much as possible to have a sense of recognition and belonging to the westero system. "

In the original time and space, Bill Clinton won the election of President George W. Bush by accident in the 1990s. He has been running for more than 20 years. When Hillary Clinton ran for president, the Clinton family was no longer a political upstart in the 1990s. Before the general election, the planned Hillary Clinton cabinet was fully filled.

A strong contrast is that a golden real estate developer, because he is a complete political plain person, until the end of his first term, the cabinet is still short of three or four.

This is the most obvious manifestation of the gap in the accumulation of inside information.

It's almost ten years since 1986 when Simon's rise. However, he really began to increase the layout of the political field, starting from the 1992 general election and emerging in the 1994 mid-term election.

This time, the Trojan plan is a deeper penetration.

Since it's also a lack of information, it's not realistic to be too strict with loyalty, and Simon never has too high expectations for the so-called loyalty, he still believes in his position. It's still inspired by the biochemical mode of a shooting game in my memory. Once a player becomes a zombie, he will immediately change his position and attack his former teammates. This is actually the most intuitive embodiment of human nature in extreme environments.

What Simon needs, and the people he's going to support, is to be able to recognize that he belongs to the westero system.

Sophia listened to Simon and asked, "well, what do I need to do?"

Simon said: "I had this idea last year. Egger and I want to talk about things. We can only borrow other people's Club space. You know, I'm not used to that. Therefore, the westero system should have some of its own top clubs, so that our people can communicate with each other

Sophia nodded and said, "in fact, I thought about it a few years ago. I just understand that you are not very interested in communication, and you haven't taken the initiative to join any club, so I didn't mention it. Now it happens that, oh, in fact, many of our existing resources can be used directly, just like Christie's auction house, every auction is actually equivalent to a club like activity. In addition, the military theme park you set up in Ukraine can be used as an activity venue, and some people can be invited to play regularly. Besides, don't you control a real estate company in New York? I remember the company has a lot of entertainment facilities like casinos and golf courses, which are very useful. In fact, the key to the establishment of a club is to guard its members. Many people are particularly concerned about this. They don't want to get along with people who are not at the same level as themselves. In addition, regular activities are what you want to bring people together. "

Seeing that Sophia said so much without thinking, Simon said with a smile, "it seems that you have really thought about it. Let's leave it to you."

Sophia agreed, and said: "this matter can't be urgent. What you just mean is not only to set up a club, but also to divide different circles, which requires more complicated planning."

"Of course, it's not urgent. After all, the prerequisite for the implementation of the Trojan plan is to select people first. The workload is very heavy, and you don't need to delay your work. Just prepare slowly, and you can finish it by the end of this year."

"It won't take that long," Sophia added. "Moreover, I think we can bring in the existing network resources of westero system in advance. Therefore, as long as the plan is determined, we can start it directly. By the way, then you need to attend more activities. "

"I'm not going to join all those clubs."

"Of course not, but first of all, you have to let people know who is standing behind the scenes of this club. When the club is on the right track, even if you don't show up for a year or two, it's OK."

Simon thought so, and nodded.

They discussed some details. Sophia continued to look through Simon's memo, and soon saw a picture. It was a big black-and-white group photo of twenty or thirty people on A4 paper. The woman crossed the folder and recognized the person in the middle of the photo: "this is Einstein?"Simon looked at the photo in Sophia's hand and nodded: "yes."

After that, he pointed out the names of other people in the photo.

In addition to Einstein, there are Madame Curie, Schrodinger, Planck, Lorenz, bohr and so on in the photo. This photo covers almost all of the great powers in the field of physical chemistry that have changed modern human history.

Simon did not miss the introduction. He explained in Sofia's slightly wide eyes: "this is a group photo of the participants of the Solvi conference held in Brussels in 1927. The Solvi conference is a discussion summit in the field of physical chemistry sponsored by Ernest Solvi, a European entrepreneur."

Sophia then reflected, fingertips across the photo, exclaimed: "I can't believe these people have ever been together. I can't believe it."

The photos of Solvi conference in 1927 were widely spread on the Internet of Simon's previous life. Einstein, Madame Curie, Schrodinger and a group of legendary scientists gathered together, absolutely more than any star group photo. However, the photos in front of him are hard to find. At this stage, the Internet is not as rich as it will be more than ten years later.

Sofia continued to turn the page and saw two beautiful handwritten words: Solvay plan. Instead of looking at the content, the woman aimed at Simon.

Simon reached out to help the woman turn the page and offered to explain, "remember that I planned to set foot in a series of cutting-edge technology fields last year, such as aerospace and nuclear energy?"

"Remember, ITER, the international thermonuclear fusion experimental reactor project, 5 billion US dollars. The newspaper said that you would personally sponsor it. Why didn't you write it down?"

"Because of disappointment."

"Well?"

"In fact, I really wanted to sponsor this project, but later I personally studied the current situation in this field, and I was very disappointed, so I gave up these ideas for the time being." Simon said that Sofia was still puzzled and continued: "these fields, whether aerospace or nuclear energy, have been controlled by various governments for a long time. Private enterprises are not allowed to enter, but the cost is too high for everyone to burn. They can only be sustained through government funding. As a result, both in North America and Europe, due to government control, bureaucratism, red tape and lack of incentive mechanism, these fields have lost vitality. Many technologies in the field of aerospace and nuclear energy are still at the level of 1950s and 1960s. Like the ITER project, if I really spend 5 billion dollars in it, after the investigation, I find that it is not worth so much money. In the end, I might as well exchange it into gold coins to get lost. "

"So," Sofia motioned to the folder in her hand, "plan Solvay?"

Simon nodded: "yes, the point I saw before is that human history is created by ordinary people. It turns out that this is a joke. The so-called history promoted by ordinary people is often the reincarnation of standing still. The real history of mankind is actually created by genius. Just like these people in this picture, and many other great scientists of that era, they have really made human beings complete the breakthrough that has not been achieved in the past few thousand years in more than 100 years. They have entered the steam age, the electrical age and even the information age from the agricultural age that has been reincarnated for thousands of years. Now, with the disintegration of the Soviet Union, the most dangerous confrontation of mankind in the electrical age has come to an end, and the world has entered a period of peace again. Without belief and confrontation, society will inevitably stagnate. Do you know, this is actually very dangerous. "

Sophia listened carefully to Simon's remarks and wondered, "isn't it good that we are in peace? And I can't see where the danger is? "

Instead of answering Sophia directly, Simon asked, "do you know the Kardashev hierarchy?"

Sophia shook her head honestly: "I don't know."

Simon explained: "this is a hypothesis of cosmic civilization level proposed by former Soviet astronomer Nikolay Kardashev. He divided the cosmic civilization into three levels. In short, the first level civilization can use the resources of the whole planet, the second level civilization can use the resources of the stellar system, and the third level civilization can use the resources of the galaxy. What level of civilization do you think we are in? "

"First class civilization, of course."

"You're wrong. According to our ability to use the earth's resources, it's only a 0.7-level civilization. Only when we achieve controllable nuclear fusion and have unlimited energy in theory can we be regarded as a first-level civilization," Simon said. Without waiting for Sophia to ask, he said, "every civilization level has its own survival limitations, and the core is actually resources. It's like the farming age that has lasted for thousands of years. Because there is no breakthrough in the civilization level, they can only be reincarnated or destroyed all the time. Now, although we have entered the information age, it is actually only the continuation of the electrical age, and the steam age is the prelude of the electrical age. Therefore, the resources available to human beings are not much different from those of a hundred years ago. In the past 100 years, the two world wars and even the cold war that lasted for half a century, Sophie, why do you think they all happened? "

Sophia some understand: "for survival resources?"Simon nodded: "yes, in the final analysis, it's just for survival resources. Because of the limited resources we can make use of in a 0.7-level civilization, for more than a hundred years, wars have always been going on, and economic crises of all sizes and sizes have always been breaking out. In essence, every few years of human development, the resources in our hands are no longer sufficient. First of all, the economic crisis forces human beings to optimize their resources. When the optimization brought about by the economic crisis is no longer effective, the war will appear, and directly reduce the population and resource consumption by the most cruel means. Therefore, if we stop now, it seems that we have ushered in the era of peace, but it is still within the 0.7 level of reincarnation, because the civilization level has stagnated. Perhaps after the accumulation of several economic crises, we find that the optimization of resources is no longer effective, and the result is still war. This time, because we have mastered nuclear weapons, it will basically only lead to human self destruction Warfare. Don't think that human beings have enough sense to avoid nuclear war. If human beings have such sense, two world wars will not happen and there will not be a cold war lasting for half a century. "

Sophia looked at Simon for a moment and touched the man's face: "Simon, you are so pessimistic."

Simon pasted the soft palm of the woman's hand: "what about you?"

"I'm pessimistic now, too." Sophia said, and then asked, "how long do you think we have?"

Simon shrugged: "who knows, maybe 30 years, maybe 50 years, maybe even shorter."

Sofia's attention turned again to the document in front of him: "so, the Solvi plan, um, should be to create a group of talents like Einstein, break through controllable nuclear fusion and other technologies, and let mankind enter the era of real level 1.0 civilization?"

"Yes. According to some surveys and statistics, the proportion of people born with high intelligence quotient is actually very high. Some statistics show that more than 2% of people born with intelligence quotient above 130 are gifted, but most people can't fully exploit these advantages because of the limitation of living environment, so these talents are buried the day after tomorrow. Solvi's plan is to find these gifted children, educate and indoctrinate them directionally, and finally cultivate the talents we need to change the world. "

Sophia worried: "if you do this, it may cause controversy."

Manipulating a child's life, or rather a group of children's life, seems to many to be anti human. According to those people's ideas, children should grow up happily and freely according to their own ideas.

Simon heard the words, raised his hand and said, "enough money!"

“……”

Sophia rolled her eyes slightly. She thought it was the best solution. She asked, "Simon, what's next?"

"What?"

"If we succeed in reaching civilization level 1.0, then, do you think everything will change?"

Simon shook his head: "no, maybe it's just another level of reincarnation, but it must be better than now. Moreover, I only offer one possibility. As long as we achieve controllable nuclear fusion and have endless energy, we can easily get rid of the shackles of this planet. At that time, we can even choose to emigrate to Mars. As for people on the ground, it doesn't matter how they want to toss, even if they toss themselves away, it has nothing to do with me. "
