After completing the investment in City Bank, Li Bu entered his leisure time and ushered in the New Year's Day of 1991. Now there are rumors everywhere in America whether the government will launch a war with Iraq to help Kuwait.

"Hu, do you think the government will launch a war on Iraq?" Rogge looked at the news reports and asked casually.

After hearing this, Hu Zhi'an shrugged and said: "Last year, the United Nations required Iraq to withdraw from Kuwait before January 1 this year, otherwise it may have to resort to war."

It was New Year's Day, and Li Bu invited some senior executives and some collaborators to have Chinese food together at the Mandarin Oriental Hotel in Los Angeles.

Others also expressed their opinions. This matter is now the most concerning thing in the United States, so everyone will talk about it during the gathering.

"Abu, you also run the media. Let's analyze whether there will be a war this time." The vice president of a certain theater chain asked Li Bu.

Li Bu raised his eyebrows and said: "Since the 60s, America has not won the war in Asia. Now they need a war to prove themselves. Moreover, this war must be won in a short time. To prove its position as a world superpower."

Everyone in the restaurant looked at Li Bu, because his words were said in an affirmative tone, which attracted everyone's attention.

"Oh, did you say the war will be short?" A woman asked in a surprised tone. The Chinese-American opposite was a 'great' philanthropic novelist. It is said that his annual royalties income exceeds [-] million US dollars. He is a billionaire, and she respects such billionaires very much.

Li Bu said: "I just analyzed it based on the information I got. However, the American government has not taken any action for so long. In order to show its strong strength, in theory it will be very short."

"Abu is worthy of being a best-selling novelist, a gold medal screenwriter, and a gold medal producer. This kind of reasoning and analysis is indeed wonderful." An executive from Fox praised, not sure whether it was out of sincerity or to flatter. boss.

Li Bu smiled shyly and implicitly, expressing his appreciation for his compliment.

Many people who came here today expressed goodwill and flattery to him. Yes, it was flattery. Li Bu ranked very high on the list of powerful people in Hollywood. I dare not say that he is in the top three, but he is definitely among the top ten. , he is Fox’s largest shareholder and has inextricable ties with Global Entertainment.

The used items recycling fund and the environmental protection fund are also his. This fund is welcomed by most states. As for the unpopular ones, it is too remote and has not been involved yet. The side business of the fund is the rental service of audio and video tapes. This provides cash assistance to the fund.

This business is now distributed in more than [-] states, so Li Bu is also a guest of several other major film companies.

Li Bu spent a wonderful New Year's Day amidst everyone's praise and flattery. He returned to the villa in Beverly Hills with a smile on his face. Jennifer did not go today and was studying or getting to know each other at home. The company's technology and some professional-related information; now people in the media, economics or industry are paying attention to this emerging company. As the head of this company, if others don't know anything about it, they will be criticized. It's a joke, and she doesn't want to be said that she got to the position because of her boyfriend. Even if it's true, she doesn't want to be said that she got her position by selling her body.

When Li Bu came back, the servant reported, "Miss Jennifer, she is in the study now. Do you want to invite her over?"

"No, don't disturb her, pour me a cup of hot tea, thank you!"

"Okay, sir."

The development of the matter is similar to what Li Bu said. On January 1, the United States and Iran held a meeting in Geneva. This should be the last meeting. The United States believes that it is a world power and wants money and people. The world of science and technology First, I will give you face now and come to negotiate with you. You should accept mediation and give me face. Iran believes that its military strength is the third in the world. All the armies have been baptized by the Iran-Iraq war for many years. Even if you fight me, you will still have a fight. Both sides had the strength and confidence, so the talks did not produce the expected results.

Three days later, after deliberations, Congress decided to authorize the military to expel Iraq from Kuwait. Shortly thereafter, America's allies also authorized their troops to send troops to Iraq along with the US military.

Alice saw Li Bu watching TV attentively, and was a little confused and said, "Is this going to be a war?"

Li Bu nodded and said, "The US authorized the authorization very quickly this time!"

"Congress will act quickly for justice, of course." Alice said matter-of-factly.

Li Bu laughed loudly and said: "There is no justice in any war, only profit. Iraq invaded Kuwait because it wanted to default on its debt and wanted the other party's oil; and the United States also wanted oil, and it also wanted to deter some disobedient people. Some countries show the world who is the boss in the world."

Alice didn't understand everything he said, but she still got the general idea.

Li Bu remembered something, then picked up the phone and discussed some things with the other party, from novels to movies, as well as the recent situation. The two parties seemed very familiar with each other; Alice watched and listened, some Not sure why.

In the international crude oil futures market, some funds began to short crude oil futures and opened positions very slowly.

A few days later, on the 16th, at 10:30 a.m. Eastern Time, the commander-in-chief signed a war document for the US military and ordered the war against Iraq.

On January 1991, 1, a multinational force led by the United States bombed Baghdad, and the Gulf War broke out. With the support of powerful science and technology, Iraq's important strongholds, energy facilities, command centers, etc. were eliminated or paralyzed when the war broke out. , under such a blow, the disadvantages are highlighted.

In less than a month, Iran accepted the UN agreement and expressed its willingness to withdraw its troops. This was a completely crushing war, which also changed the world's war model. Soon after, the Northern Alliance disintegrated. At this point, America became the only country in the world. superpower.

The Northern Alliance is subject to a US food embargo and military competition with the US, resulting in unbalanced industrial development. In addition, relations with the mainland are severed, and the entire alliance is in danger.

Li Bu is also boastful. Over the years, the United States has summarized the two unwinnable wars after World War II, and then developed science and technology to redefine modern warfare. It has not fought a war for more than 20 years, which makes some people feel that war is nothing more than this.

Li Bu sighed: "Don't be arrogant when you achieve some results. Make some money yourself, but also keep a low profile. There is a sky outside the world, and there are people outside the world."
