Chapter 874: 299, Far-sighted plotting
Looking at Felix Warburg sitting across from him, Donnie said with a smile and a tease.
“Atlantic City has been quite lively recently, and I’m sure you’re not here just to play a few hands, are you, Felix?”
Felix Warburg responded with a smile, “Block, don’t joke about it, I believe you know why I am here!”
After that, Felix Warburg paused for a mont, then continued.
“Block, Adolf has already realized his mistake. I think it would be good to let him personally apologize to you, compensate you for so of your losses, and let this matter be over. How does that sound?”
Donnie leaned back on the sofa, not surprised by Felix Warburg’s visit, after all, they were both part of the Jewish camp and had quite close cooperation.
Moreover, Donnie’s treatnt of Adolf Ochs was actually ant to involve the Warburg family.
Yet Donnie still felt that Felix Warburg was overestimating himself. Could these matters really just be settled with a few nice words?
“Felix, I should give you face for coming here, but do you know just how much the stock price of Sinclair Oil Corporation has dropped because of the attack from The New York Tis?
And how much money did Pandora Oil Company spend to smooth things over with the Soviet Union?”
Felix Warburg’s expression turned sowhat embarrassed as he may not have known the exact numbers, but he understood it was definitely not a small amount!
“Most importantly, do you know how much social impact this incident has had on ? There are still so uninford people protesting against the New Jersey Consortium, accusing us of encroaching on the wealth of the United States, and there have even been calls to ban listening to ABC.
By the way, doesn’t your family have a stake in Westinghouse? I believe you know that KDKA had previously been speaking at great length about this matter, trying to seize ABC’s market share.
Can Adolf Ochs cover all of these losses for us?”
With each statent Donnie made, Felix Warburg’s face grew uglier, realizing he had been too hasty this ti.
“Block, I know this matter has had a very negative impact on you, but Adolf Ochs has acknowledged his mistake. It was not easy for him to get to where he is with his current assets. What happened in the past has happened and we cannot change it, but we cannot let the future pay for the past.
We are all friends after all. I believe that there will definitely be cooperation between you in the future, so let go of the past and embrace the future!”
Donnie chuckled: “Felix, it’s easy for you to say when you haven’t suffered any loss. But these losses have fallen squarely on , so I cannot accept what you’ve said.
If The New York Tis doesn’t issue a public apology, other newspapers will think New Jersey is easy to bully. I can’t accept that scenario, so this ti, I cannot give you this face!”
“Block!” Since Felix Warburg had chosen to be the middleman, he naturally wasn’t going to just watch these things happen, so even if Donnie had already made things very clear, Felix Warburg still wanted to persuade Donnie.
“While your stronghold is in New Jersey, in Atlantic City, you also have business in New York. The New York State elections are already half over, and it seems only a matter of ti before young Theodore Roosevelt is defeated. As far as I know, Al Smith is very close to Adolf Ochs, and Al Smith’s election as Governor of New York State was also greatly aided by The New York Tis.”
The state elections are sooner than the presidential elections. Although young Theodore Roosevelt had Donnie’s support, the Teapot Do scandal was always the core point of attack that the Democrat Al Smith used against young Theodore Roosevelt, which made young Theodore Roosevelt fall behind throughout the campaign.
The defeat in the election for Governor of New York State seed to be only a matter of ti for young Theodore Roosevelt!
Donnie looked at Felix Warburg nonchalantly and asked, “So Mr. Felix Warburg, are you threatening on behalf of Adolf Ochs?”
Felix Warburg imdiately denied, “Of course not, Block, we’re friends. I wouldn’t do anything to harm a friend. I just hope you can make so concessions on this matter. We’re all in business, and we all know that it’s better to have one more friend in the business world than one more enemy, right?”
Donnie chuckled and said, “If the price of being friends is that after soone slaps , I’m expected to do nothing and smile and be friends with him, then I don’t need such a friend!
You should know that the New Jersey Consortium is not afraid of anyone now, Felix!”
At this mont, Felix Warburg finally felt the assertiveness of Donnie that Adolf Ochs had talked about; this Donnie was indeed very domineering!
“Block…”
Felix Warburg wanted to continue trying, but was interrupted by Donnie.
“Felix, if you truly see as your friend, then stop talking about this matter. It will make think you don’t really see as your friend!”
