Chapter 384: Changes in Brighton

Zhou Ming was not surprised by Edward's words. In fact, as soon as he saw him, he was able to guess the reason for his visit. After all, as the saying goes, no one comes empty-handed to the palace. This is the governor of Massachusetts, The governor of Massachusetts has a lot on his plate. It's simply impossible to imagine him having nothing better to do than to chat with you. Now he's come all the way from Brighton, so he must have run into some big trouble that they can't solve.

However, Zhou Ming was not surprised, but Edward's words were like a bombshell to the father and son George behind him.

As the heads of the Greatwood family, they of course knew Edward's identity as a very important member of the Kennedys, and understood what kind of existence the Kennedys were. It was a legendary family that had gone from business to politics family, which has gone from business to politics, and even produced a strong president who was so powerful that he tried to move the financial cake of the Federal Reserve. Perhaps in the end this president did not fare so well, but at least it shows the strength of this family.

It is also because of this, they were extremely surprised that Edward could say such things.

'Governor Edward, did you just say that you really need to invite Ming Zhou back to Brighton to take charge?' George asked carefully, his eyes wide.

In response to this question, Edward answered quite rightly: 'Of course. Mr. Chow Ming is an important figure in changing Brighton, and we all really need your guidance, otherwise we'll be like headless flies.'

Although George and his son had a feeling of what the answer would be when they asked this question, but when they actually heard the answer, they still found it unacceptable. After all, they were part of the large Brighton family, so how could they do this? Could it be Zhou Ming's previous departure from Brighton was not because he was driven out by the consortium family, but because he had other plans?

Recalling think about Ming Chow's journey from Brighton to San Francisco and finally to Etrile, it seems that wherever Ming Chow goes, he can stir up a bloody mess in the local consortium.

In San San Francisco made a 22-year-old girl who had never lived in San Francisco before the head of the Down family. In Itley, not only did he split up the Daewood family, but he also made the city of Itley go bankrupt according to his plan. Now even the oldest Brighton consortium in the east could not escape unscathed, and Edward had to step in to ask Zhou Ming to return to take charge.

Such made George take a cold breath, because he felt that Ming was like an unfathomable black hole, which made people feel fear from the bottom of their hearts.

However at the same time, George let out a sigh of relief and no longer felt ashamed of his failure. Now that even the Candini family was in such a state, and he had lost to Zhou Ming and bowed to him, it was not something that was unacceptable to think about.

Zhou Ming could do nothing about it, so he let George and his son take Julia back first, while he invited Edward to get into his car.

Sitting in in Zhou Ming's car, Edward recalled how George and his son had just treated Zhou Ming with such respect, and now they were leaving carefully, their backs turned. He couldn't help but sigh, 'Mr. Zhou Ming is still as overbearing as ever! Although the two of them did not introduce themselves, but if I'm not mistaken, they should be the patriarch and son of the Daewood family, right?'

Zhou Ming nodded and said, 'They are the ones. You are indeed a good judge, Mr. Governor. They did this only because I made them realise their mistake and gave them a little punishment, that's all.'

'Defeated defeated the Bank of England, put the Daewood Bank in a difficult position, and owned shares in Daewood Bank. He can say that this is a little punishment for them. Mr. Zhou Ming has indeed inherited the Oriental tradition of modesty and humility,' Edward said.

'It It seems that Mr Governor is very concerned about the situation in other places, even though he is in Brighton!' Zhou Ming said with a smile, 'In fact, this is also a problem with their own existence. Just like the British pound, if there is no problem with it, no matter how clever I am, it would be very difficult to find an opportunity to attack it.'

Zhou Ming said this, he glanced at Edward, then leaned back in his chair and continued, 'It's just that Governor Edward's visit is also very opportune. I have just the time now. I can show you around this city of Itely. This is the largest industrial zone in the United States. Perhaps the Governor can find good investment opportunities for the family.'

Speaking of Zhou Ming even whispered to him at the end, 'The Greatwood family is very weak right now, so this is the perfect opportunity to plunder the wealth here!'

Facing Zhou Ming's words, Edward smiled a little embarrassed, 'Mr. Zhou Ming, although the family is also investing in this area, it is all managed by a dedicated team. As for you, Mr. Zhou Ming, I think we should get down to business first.'

Zhou Ming asked in a surprised tone, 'I didn't know you weren't here in Itely on holiday, Governor.'

'Of of course not. The situation in Brighton has worsened, and I have come to Etrile with the earnest request of Lawrence and Louis to return to Brighton and help us,' said Edward.

'I see I see. But perhaps it is because you, Mr Governor, have such a good psychological constitution that I mistook you for being on holiday in Itely, because you looked so relaxed and I didn't feel any tension at all,' said Zhou Ming.

Edward was even more embarrassed. He smiled and said to Ming Zhou, 'I can only say I'm sorry. Many expressions are a habit. I would prefer if the other person asked the questions first, so that I can seize the initiative.'

'I understand this, but in the future, Mr Governor, please don't do this again, at least not in front of me, because it only makes me think you're stupid.'

Zhou Ming reminded him. Edward hurriedly nodded and said yes. Zhou Ming did not relentlessly pursue him, so he waved his hand lightly and skipped over the topic, saying, 'Let's not talk about that now. What is the situation in Brighton? hands and lightly skipped over the topic, saying, 'Let's not talk about that now. So what's the situation like in Brighton now? Hasn't the expensive military cost of the Iraq War caused their finances to run into a bit of trouble?'

Zhou Ming was indeed a little curious. Although Ming Zhou had been busy with Tang Ran and the Tang family from San Francisco to Ettle, he had almost forgotten about Brighton and never paid much attention to the news there, but if there was any news from there, Zhou Ming would still lend a helping hand.

Just like he took the great risk of going to Iraq himself, it was because the situation in Brighton had changed, the Addams family and the Rockefeller family had joined forces , which put Edward and the others under enormous pressure, both in terms of the lawsuit and the CDS market. That's why Edward took Louis with him to San Francisco to ask for Zhou Ming's help.

It also happened to be he had helped Tang Ran pass the test of the Tang family, so Zhou Ming decided to go to Iraq in person. After all, this war was controlled by these two families.

Later, when he returned from returned from Iraq, he did not hear from Brighton. He thought that this was a great blow to the Adams and Rockefeller families. Coupled with this, the Downes family broke out, and the subsequent intervention of the Greatwood family, Zhou Ming had to deal with these things first and had no time to worry about the situation in Brighton.

Of course, Zhou Ming did not think that his tricks could really defeat the two families of Adams and Rockefeller, but at least it would be no problem to give them a hard time. After all, a Gulf War-level investment, which they had planned for a long time, and their own sudden changes could definitely disrupt their plans and reduce a lot of the pressure on Edward and the others.

In response to Zhou Ming's doubts, Edward sighed and said, 'It's true that towards the end of the Gulf War, we did feel that the pressure from the Addams family had eased a lot. Perhaps they were busy dealing with the problems of the Gulf War After all, no one could have imagined that an asymmetrical regional war, a war that the United States had been preparing for nearly a year, and a war in which the US lost control of the airspace in Iraq, could turn out like that.

'If it had been a simple war, then you would have won very easily, but the problem is that this war is not simple.'

Zhou Ming said to Edward, he has a relatively thorough understanding of this war, otherwise he would not have thought of using public opinion to slow down the US military's offensive, which ultimately made the US military unable to fight freely and finally had no choice but to come to negotiate with him.

Edward nodded and said, The Gulf War was very powerful, but it didn't slow them down for long. They adjusted within just one month.'

At this point, Edward added 'But we also did a really bad job during that month, because we did nothing but wait like idiots. I can't imagine what we were thinking at the time, how we could have done such a stupid thing...'

Zhou Ming interrupted Edward and told him, 'No matter how stupid something is, once it's done there's no need to dwell on it. Maybe you can draw some conclusions later, but for now, let's just focus on the problem at hand and solve it.'

Edward apologised to Zhou Ming apologised to Zhou Ming, and then he said, 'Adams's actions were very simple. He made a move against Candini Investment Bank, causing a conflict between the board of directors and the CEO. He then continuously used public opinion to spread all negative news about Candini Investment Bank, while selling Candini Cdenney's stock, which caused us a lot of trouble.'

'Then did the Lawrences and Lowells fear that Adams's revenge would come to them as well and so they grew disinclined?' asked Zhou Ming.

'Although I hate to admit it, admit it, but that's exactly what happened,' Edward sighed. 'Now that the Rockefeller capital has entered the market, the CDS market has become active again, and people are not as afraid of subprime loans. This has also directly affected on our lawsuit against the 45 investment companies, because they even wanted to withdraw from the team of lawyers in this lawsuit.'

'This is indeed a very troublesome matter, but I am not in Brighton at the moment, and I do not have a complete understanding of the situation there, so I will have to wait until I return to Brighton before I can give you a precise answer,' said Zhou Ming.

Edward then let out a sigh of relief: 'Brighton welcomes Mr. Zhou Ming at any time.'
