The Wolf of Los Angeles.

In recent years, Twitter has maintained a dominant position in the social media industry. After LinkedIn was acquired by Twitter, its pursuers have not even been able to see Twitter's faintest shadow.

Hawke also remembered the company "Full of Stories," which was founded at the end of 2008 and claimed to create the most authentic internet news and stories of ordinary people. Among a large number of small and medium-sized internet social media companies, it managed to get a slightly higher ranking.

Twitter has a professional team that monitors its competitors in the same industry.

Months earlier, Hawke had been reported that a team under Roger Ayers was assessing the market prospects, which were full of stories.

Neither Hawke nor Twitter can stop others from entering this market.

James Murdoch, attempting to use one enemy to devour another, stated, "News Corp. and Twitter are well-known allies in the media industry, and Roger Ailes' actions are undermining our partnership."

Hawke looked very serious: "Thank you for the news, I understand."

James stopped there: "This is Roger Ayers' personal behavior. He cannot represent News Corporation, much less the Murdoch family."

Hawke was blunt: "We have always been allies."

He could see the other party's purpose and showed that he valued News Corp. as an ally very much, but few people knew his true, hidden purpose.

News Corporation is undoubtedly one of the largest traditional media groups in North America.

The issue between James and Roger Ayers is no secret in media circles. He was very direct, getting up to shake hands with Hawke and saying, "If there's anything I can help you with, just give me a call. We're allies."

The two scoundrels, each harboring their own ulterior motives, laughed together, as if they were best friends, and walked out of the lounge together.

Back in the lounge, Hawke ran into Leonardo DiCaprio and Martin Scorsese.

The former specifically introduced the latter to Hawke.

Martin Scorsese is still striving for an Oscar.

A few years ago, Martin Scorsese failed to win the Oscar for Best Director for "The Departed" because of Hawke and the film "Los Angeles Fire".

The media and public opinion showed widespread sympathy.

Old Martin was not willing to give up either.

We were rivals before, but we may be able to cooperate in the future.

Like many politicians and forces, their stance always shifts with their self-interest, and what ultimately determines their self-interest is their own interests.

Scorsese could tell that Leonardo and Hawke had a special relationship, and he specifically said, "Leo and I are preparing to work together on a new film. In recent years, the stock market has been volatile, and some legendary figures from Wall Street have become highly sought after, among whom Joel Belfort's experience is truly legendary."

Hawke vaguely remembered: "I recall there was a biographical novel about him."

“The Wolf of Wall Street.” Scorsese adjusted his glasses. “Leo and I plan to adapt this novel into a biographical film and try to win an Oscar again.”

Hawke nodded slightly and said to the two of them, "Go talk to Roger Keane of the West Coast Investment Fund. He's been in charge of the specifics of film investment."

While Martin Scorsese's films may not be particularly commercially appealing, Leonardo DiCaprio's star power makes it easy for them to turn a profit.

From an investment perspective, both Malaysians and Abu Dhabi residents would certainly be very interested in investing in the films of these two top Hollywood directors and stars.

After Martin Scorsese left, Leonardo DiCaprio chatted with Hawke for a while and specifically asked, "Do you have any films you're aiming for an Oscar in the next few years?"

Hawke thought for a moment and said, "Director Eric has two films. One is the biographical film about Hillary that you mentioned before, and the other is called Sugar Pie. I wasn't involved in the specific release date or Oscar bid. You can ask him about it."

Leonardo smiled and said, "I understand."

This top Hollywood star, after getting through the most outrageous phase of "Titanic," has actually been vividly demonstrating the skill of clinging to powerful figures.

Regardless of Cialie's character, he has always clung to Martin Scorsese when it comes to choosing directors.

Upon witnessing Hawke's rise to power, they immediately took the initiative to align themselves with him.

After the party ended, Hawke kept thinking about James Murdoch's words on his way home.

Erica, sitting next to him, asked with concern, "Are you having trouble?"

Hokra took her hand and said, "I'm thinking about how to support two factions to create a serious social conflict, preferably a full-blown war."

Erica deliberately said, "Let's start an American civil war, with each side supporting one side and fighting to the death."

Hawke laughed: "If a civil war really breaks out in the future, I will definitely hire you as the chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff."

“Then the other side is doomed,” Erica said. “I’ll kill them all.”

Just as he returned to the hilltop estate, Brian called, and Hawke asked him to meet in the next few days.

Currently, under the impact of demons and monsters, the social situation in the United States is becoming increasingly turbulent, with some states and cities recognizing more than 90 different genders.

In many public primary and secondary schools, gender diversity education has even become a compulsory course.

It is almost impossible to forcefully reverse this social trend, but it is possible to support another group of people to fiercely fight against these demons and monsters.

The following day, Hawke summoned Caroline, Edward, Henderson, Roger Keane, and Pierce Madden, the chairman of the charitable foundation, to a meeting at the Coast Building.

This meeting focused on topics related to gender freedom.

Hawke stated directly: "In recent years, Twitter has developed rapidly, with more than 8 million registered users worldwide and more than 7000 million posts per day. Many social movements use Twitter as a platform for dissemination, and their development speed is extremely fast, such as the LGBTQ movement."

Caroline had spoken with Hawke beforehand and knew the content of today's meeting. She said, "Twitter is a platform for free speech, and within the legal limits, it will not prevent anyone from speaking out."

Pierce Madden, who has been sponsoring various organizations through his foundations overseas, immediately sensed something unusual in their conversation.

He immediately said, "But the LGBTQ movement has the loudest voice on the internet and its practices are very extreme. Once someone expresses a different opinion, they will immediately be attacked by their groups. Among them, the bigoted and radical ones will even issue threats to personal safety."

Roger Keane chimed in, "Within the investment foundation, some people who disagree with their views and refute them online have basically all received personal threats." Hawke looked at Caroline and Henderson and asked, "What about Twitter and West Coast tech?"

Henderson spoke first: "This situation exists, but the number is relatively small."

Caroline said, "Some LGBTQ members who were a bit confused wanted to organize a protest on Twitter to change Twitter's logo to the rainbow flag, but they didn't realize that the organization behind them was secretly sponsored by us. The protest movement was forced to disband before it even started."

With the rampant development of the LGBTQ movement, many demons and monsters have lost sight of who the king and queen are.

This is also an inevitable consequence of the loss of control over diversified movements.

Hawke looked at Pierce and asked, "Has the Foundation conducted an assessment? How long will it take for this extreme movement to completely spiral out of control and backfire on us?"

Since last year, the charitable foundation has been quietly conducting targeted social surveys.

Pierce took out the statistics and distributed them to everyone present. He then explained in detail: "This is a social survey conducted in 38 states where the LGBTQ movement is relatively extensive. The trend of blind expansion is very obvious. Most people cannot listen to or tolerate any dissenting voices. As soon as there is any questioning, they will pounce on it like hungry wolves and tear it apart."

He paused slightly before continuing, "This group has no sense of gratitude whatsoever. Even those who have helped them, even those who have truly rescued them from dire straits, will be met with their fiercest attacks if they express even the slightest opposition."

Hawke thought of J.K. Rowling and the Harry Potter cast led by Emma Watson.

The former is a typical Cthulhu, who, because he spoke a few truths, incurred the attacks of the latter and even took the initiative to distance himself from them.

If this is something celebrities do to conform to the general social trend and attract attention, then...

A series of monsters and demons then appeared at J.K. Rowling's doorstep, issuing death threats that crossed the legal boundaries of civilized society.

But with their LGBTQ affiliation, these people not only escaped any punishment, but were also able to continuously issue various threatening statements.

Edward then said, “My Compton Foundation is not out of control. The Compton Foundation can mobilize thousands of people to counter any group that dares to oppose us.”

Hawke never doubted this, because the black men from Compton weren't exactly sharp-witted.

These Black men were among the earliest initiators of the LGBTQ movement, but they were not the most radical group.

Pierce added, "There isn't much talk about Twitter; their main focus is on social movements, trying to gain more benefits for themselves through disputes."

Caroline looked at Hawke: "What changes will Twitter make next?"

Edward then turned on the projector and projected the content displayed on the computer onto the screen.

Hawke first instructed Caroline: "Twitter's core algorithm is gradually abandoning its blocking of anti-demonic movements. You need to develop a plan that, in conjunction with changes in current social events, systematically relax the restrictions on speech on Twitter."

The reason why demons and monsters can gain the upper hand in public opinion on Twitter is not only because they are far more capable of stirring up trouble and speaking out desperately than ordinary people, but also because of the media platform's guidance of public opinion.

As we all know, the so-called freedom of speech in the United States is just so-so.

For example, no mainstream media dares to easily publish public statements that are anti-Cthulhu or anti-demons.

For example, anti-Celestial Dragon statements are extremely taboo.

Caroline looked at the content on the screen and said, "In reality, we are essentially a channel for ordinary people to have a voice?"

“That’s right.” Hawke tapped the conference table and emphasized, “The silent majority are the majority. Ordinary people are not equal to the demons and monsters; they are third-class citizens.”

This is something that none of the people present had a personal understanding of, because everyone there was wealthy.

But they had all witnessed the helplessness of ordinary people when faced with demons and monsters.

Pierce cautioned, "Boss, the LGBTQ movement is thriving now, and we're on the opposite side..."

Hawke stated, "We are not against the LGBTQ movement, but rather about creating a channel where ordinary people and families can have their voices heard. Freedom has always been a principle that Twitter upholds."

Henderson asked, "What's your stance on the LGBTQ movement?"

“Our stance will never change: to speak out for equality for all Americans, including LGBTQ people and all ordinary people.” Hawke’s words became more direct as he looked at Pierce and Roger Keane: “Through overseas channels, we will establish a dedicated foundation to sponsor hardline conservatives who oppose the LGBTQ movement, as well as representatives and associations of normal American families and values, so that they can be at the forefront and directly confront the demons and monsters.”

Roger Keane asked, "Do we need to cut spending on the LGBTQ movement?"

Hawke shook his head: "No need. Continue to fund this. You must remember that our goal is not to suppress the LGBTQ movement and eliminate diversity, but for ordinary people and those who represent traditional values ​​to stand up and fight against those monsters."

Caroline fully understood Hawke's intention: "Both sides can make their voices heard and establish their own power bases, and these power bases will have even greater influence. Then, let the two major powers fight each other?"

Hawke nodded slightly.

This will further tear society apart, creating a situation that was once black and white ten years later, or even worse.

When two major forces clash, public opinion and debate cannot resolve the issue, and the conflict is bound to escalate into physical confrontation.

The more intense the conflict, the better opportunities Hawke can find to profit from it.

A stable and harmonious America, developing according to its established social order, would only be an America firmly controlled by traditional forces.

Newcomers like Hawke rarely have the power to reach the very top.

Pierce and his ilk, through a series of events and enormous profits, have become firmly tied to Hawke's ship.

Now, let alone voluntarily disembarking, even if someone forces them to leave, they won't.

Henderson said, "Our drone and small transport vehicle sales have many customers in the agricultural and industrial sectors, who are mostly traditional Americans. West Coast Technology can provide a detailed list."

Pierce laughed and said, "That's great."

Hawke cautioned, “Fox is acquiring a social media site called ‘Full of Stories,’ which is said to operate on the theme of being anti-LGBTQ and giving voice to ordinary people. Once the new foundation and organization are established, we can try to reach out to them to see if we can cooperate and infiltrate their network.”

Unlike James Murdoch, Hawke's primary concern was how to exploit those messy situations. (End of Chapter)
