“That’s not necessarily true. You know that the Gibson family only has one son and one daughter left, and an adopted son who suddenly appeared. They don’t have any direct connections in the military or the government. We can totally set up an organization to specifically target them, and they can set up the X-Men General Administration, so why can’t we set up another organization?” Someone suggested.
“What do you mean?”
“The X-Men General Headquarters has been in charge for several years. All known evolvers entered their schools to study and then became X-Men. There are many people who are dissatisfied with this. The rights that this organization was given in the beginning are too huge, and we can use this to build another organization for the shareholder military. You have to know that every defense minister will have a headache over the policies and development direction left behind by that general.”
“Headache, what’s there to have a headache about?”
“Because they’re all correct. It’s hard for them to change. That way, they can’t manifest their presence.”
“There’s such a thing? That general is indeed a genius. He is ahead of us in everything.” Someone said with emotion.
“That’s not what we need to think about. What we need to think about is how to take control of this country. Gentlemen, the rights of the capital country should be in our hands, so that they can bring us benefits. Now that the mountain on us has disappeared, I don’t believe there will be another person like Wesley Gibson. He is unique, so now is our chance.”
“How exactly?”
“We’re going to form a coalition against the Gibson family. First, we’ll start with the military. We may not have the money, but our capital is not bad. As long as we unite and provide funding and technology to the military, allowing the military to establish an organization that can compete with the X-Men, then we can take the first step.”
“But now the X-Men General Administration is recognized by all evolvers.”
“What does it matter? Is there a lack of greedy people in this world? As long as they have weaknesses, then we can seize them. Evolvers are increasing, and we don’t necessarily need evolvers to join. We can study them and then fight them with the power of technology. I think there’s no problem with that.”
“Okay, once we defeat the Gibson family, the benefits we get will be huge. This matter is indeed worth it.” Someone immediately agreed. The leaders of the ten consortiums finally reached an alliance. They decided to use all their strength to push the Gibson consortium. This was a bold idea.
Gibson Financial Group, or G Group, could be said to be a colossus now. It controlled many industries, and some were more inclined to monopolize. However, Wesley did a good job and formed some small companies to compete with himself. It seemed that he had not formed a complete monopoly.
Although many people know this, without actual evidence, it is difficult to refute it. Therefore, they can only watch G Group continue to grow and now it has turned into an international corporation.
They moved quickly, directly contacting the current defense minister and offering their views. The current defense chief agreed with this view. He was now sitting in this position more like a porter, carrying out the plans Wesley had left behind one by one. This made him very unwilling.
In order to downplay Wesley’s influence, the current defense minister has never served under Wesley, so he lacks reverence for Wesley and is ambitious. But it is difficult for him to make a difference after coming to power, and now that he has the opportunity, he will not give up. An anti-Gibson coalition is being formed, and at the same time they are wooing members of Congress, hoping to pass the military proposal.
The plan progressed very quickly. In less than two months, a military proposal was put on the agenda of Congress. It was a proposal about the military’s formation of an evolved force. If the number of evolved people increased, the military also needed such combat power to join and improve the army’s adaptability and combat power.
They had just passed the proposal to start a war, and now such a plan was placed here. Many members of Parliament had already smelled different, and it was time for a discussion. Several members gathered together to discuss.
“What do you think?”
“This is aimed at General Gibson. I didn’t expect them to jump out just after the general left.”
“This has nothing to do with us. We need benefits. And Gibson Group is not involved in politics. Do we agree to this bill?”
“It doesn’t matter if they agree or not. After all, when they take it out, it shows that they are ready. This bill can’t be stopped. Why should we stop it?”
“So it’s passed? But it’s no good for us. I think it’s better to abstain. Now the military is a war and they’re building a new department. Sooner or later they’ll collide with Gibson Group. I don’t think much of the military.”
“Why? Now that the general is gone, can his descendants stop him?”
“Haha, will that general not think of it? Look at the strategy he left in the military. No one can overturn it because of what? Because it’s right, they have no reason to overthrow it, and Gibson Group is starting to internationalize now. How much money does it take to buy so many small and medium-sized banks? But look at how fast they move. Do you know how much money they have? The world depends on money, and that general has foresight. How many years has X-Men General been established? How many students are there in their schools? How can the military compete?”
“That’s true. Then let’s just forfeit. Let them charge forward. We’ll sit back and watch the show.”
There were many such discussions. Everyone had their own circle, and those who benefited naturally agreed. Those who didn’t benefit were mostly on the sidelines, and there were also those who added fuel to the fire, so the proposal was passed directly.
The military had directly introduced the person in charge of the project, Colonel William Stryker, who was in charge of building the unit. Wesley was surprised when he got the news. It seemed that everything would not go smoothly. These guys had jumped out too quickly, and Colonel William Stryker was definitely a huge problem. However, Wesley did not have time to deal with their problems now. The international layout was officially at a critical moment. Investment projects around the world were working, and Wesley did not think much of these people.
However, some people could not take it anymore. In the headquarters of X-Men General Headquarters, Director Charles and Deputy Director Eric were discussing this problem.
“Charles, the military has put their hand in. What will they do? Should we raise objections?” Eric doesn’t want the military to get involved in evolvers’ affairs, especially since he doesn’t have the slightest good impression of the military. This is a problem that has remained since World War II.
