Chapter 634: Chapter 319: The Three dia Moguls_2
Despite his many impressive titles, he couldn’t help but panic when he found out that David was looking for him, specifically asking to see him by na.
The reason was simple: he had witnessed the tax audit in Hollywood.
Furthermore, matters like the Sackler family, Swiss Bank, cryptocurrency companies, including the recent Amazon Group, he had seen it all.
Despite his many titles, and being hailed as the godfather of the dia industry, compared to true financial giants like Swiss Bank, cryptocurrency companies, and the Amazon Group, saying he wasn’t even a tiny hair wasn’t an exaggeration at all.
David had even managed to handle these real financial giants, which ant if he wanted to go after him, he would likely just have to go back and prepare for his demise.
“Wait… why is he targeting ? I haven’t done anything!”
...
John Malone eventually ca to his senses after panicking for a long ti.
I didn’t provoke you, David, and my wealth, compared to cryptocurrencies and Amazon, is just minor; why are you targeting out of all people?
“I’m also puzzled, sir, but I was thinking, since you are the godfather of the dia industry and now many dia outlets like Wall Street Journal, Daily Mirror, and others are attacking David, accusing him of rapid promotion through rigged sustems, could it be related to this?”
“Wall Street Journal, Daily Mirror, those aren’t even my dia outlets; he should be after Murdoch, why ?!”
John’s tone was becoming increasingly agitated.
This damn thing was clearly Murdoch’s doing; could it be they want to make an example out of him?
If he ends up bearing this bla, that would really be the height of bad luck.
“This…”
The man in the suit found himself speechless for a mont.
Being targeted by David at such a critical mont, it could only an trouble, and the likelihood of being made an example was quite high.
Although the dia war was instigated by Murdoch’s dia group, that group was too powerful and even had Freemasonry backing them. It was understandable that David, in such a sensitive transitional period, didn’t dare to strike them directly.
Sacrificing John, as a warning to Murdoch to keep him quiet, seed quite plausible.
“Mr. John, should I arrange a plane for you to leave the country for a while to avoid the spotlight?”
“Idiot, have you forgotten about the Camora family incidents!”
Hearing John’s scolding, the man in the suit suddenly rembered.
After the Camora Family in Los Angeles was investigated by David, they tried to flee, but David had sternly intercepted them with military jets.
That incident had shocked the nation.
If they dared to do that now, they might very well end up as the front-page headline tomorrow, which would not be a laughing matter.
“Cancel my appointnts for tomorrow!”
Since David had co looking for him, indicating clearly he wanted to see him, there was no way to hide now. He could only cooperate and see if there was a chance for negotiation.

Georgia, Atlanta, CNN Headquarters Building.
CNN, stands for Cable News Network.
Founded by Ted Turner in 1980, it has now grown into a pivotal dia company in Arica, ranking 476th among the top 500 global brands.
At this mont, in an office on the top floor, the company’s founder Ted Turner looked distressed.
Because just now, he had also received a ssage from the Los Angeles IRS asking him to co over tomorrow morning.
Thinking of the various tactics of Director David, who was now specifically asking to et him, would leave anyone feeling a bit chilly.
But since the man had already co knocking, not eting him would be disrespectful and likely lead to worse consequences. He had no choice but to instruct his secretary, “Help clear my schedule for tomorrow morning and book a flight to Los Angeles.”
…
New York, Queens, CBS Headquarters.
CBS stands for Columbia Broadcasting System, one of the three major national comrcial broadcast television networks in Arica.
Founded in 1927, it started television broadcasting in 1941 and broadcasted color television in 1954.
In 1987, it directly operated five television stations in cities like New York, six AM radio stations, and seven FM radio stations.
There were over 200 television stations participating in this network via contractual relationships, forming a nationwide broadcast television network.
In December 2018, the World Brand Lab released the “2018 Top 500 World Brands” list. Columbia Broadcasting ranked 371st, undoubtedly a dia giant in Arica.
At that mont in the CEO’s office, a woman in her early thirties with big wavy hair was frowning deeply.
She was the current CEO of CBS, Sally Redstone.
It took a full five minutes before she said to a woman standing opposite her, “Book a ticket to Los Angeles for .”
The next day, the Los Angeles IRS welcod its first dia mogul, John Malone, who was conveniently in Los Angeles.
Since it wasn’t yet ti, the IRS staff had arranged for him to wait temporarily in the rest area.
However, soon his gaze sharpened when he saw a group of people approaching from not far away; it was Sally Redstone and her entourage.
Sally also looked montarily startled when she saw John sitting there.
The dia circle was just that small, and as giants in the industry, they naturally knew each other.
“Miss Sally, what brings you here?”
Today, not only had Director David called him over, but he had also invited the CEO of CBC. With that, John imdiately approached her to exchange views, sensing that the matter must be significant.
“Yes, Mr. John, were you also invited by Director David?”
John gave a wry smile and nodded.
“Mr. John, Miss Sally, what are you doing here?”
While they were talking, a surprised voice suddenly ca from behind them. Turning their heads, Sally and John were stunned again.
It was none other than Ted Turner, the boss of CNN!
That ant Director David hadn’t just invited them individually; he had invited all three of Arica’s dia moguls!
Wait a second…
Since he had invited the three of them, could there possibly be more people coming?
Or possibly… had Murdoch also been invited?
While they were still lost in their thoughts, Kepel approached and addressed the trio, “Mr. Ted, Mr. John, Miss Sally, our director can see you now.”
Hearing this, the three of them suddenly snapped out of it and involuntarily exchanged glances.
If Director David could now et them, it ant that today there would be no one else, just the three of them.
But that wasn’t the most important part.
Currently, the dia industry in Arica was largely dominated by Murdoch’s News Corporation.
Other companies could either affiliate with them, be controlled by them, or beco their subsidiaries, with only their three parties still struggling to hold on.
Their continued resistance to being swallowed up or controlled by News Corporation wasn’t due to their strength but because they were protected by anti-trust laws.
Without these protective laws, with the strength of News Corporation and Freemasonry, they would have been annexed long ago.
Now, with Murdoch’s News Corporation launching a dia attack on Director David, the timing of him specifically reaching out to these three could possibly an…
It seed the three had already suspected sothing, but to confirm whether it was true, they quickly followed Kepel’s lead to the front of the director’s office.
“Co in.”
Hearing the voice inside, Kepel pushed open the door, and after John and the others entered, she walked out and closed the door.
“Mr. John, Mr. Ted, Miss Sally, thank you for coming to see today.”
“Director David, it’s nothing really. Cooperating with a tax investigation is our duty as citizens of Arica…”
“John is right. Since Director David you asked us, no matter how busy we are, we have to co.”
“Exactly.”
Since receiving Director David’s notice, they hardly slept all night, but now that they were here, they still had to go through the motions.
