Chapter 2332 Gotham Music Festival (Sixty-Four)
Chapter 2325 Gotham Music Festival (sixty-four)
Baybat walked quickly through the corridors of Wayne Manor, straightened the tie he had just tied, and smiled at Alfred after walking down the stairs, Alfred led him to the door.
"I'm so sorry, Ah Fu, I was invited but couldn't attend the entire music festival..."
"Don't be sorry, sir. Your business is more important than anything else. If you don't mind, can you tell me what trouble you encountered?"
Bei Bat pursed his lips and his expression became serious. He said: "My friend Rachel works in the Gotham City District Attorney's Office. When she was sorting out prosecution materials, she accidentally discovered that Gotham's gangsters were working with a codename Super criminal called Scarecrow does big drug deals."
"I see, but with all due respect, this is common in Gotham City," Alfred said.
"Yes, drug dealing is common here, but this time is different. In addition to the exceptionally large amount of drugs they deal, Rachel noticed that there is an unusual group trying to interfere with this deal. I'm afraid they are my fans. "
Alfred suddenly realized it, but Beibat looked worried. He said: "The gang boss Feconi has been infiltrating the top management of Gotham, which makes Rachel helpless against many fierce criminals. Some time ago, a large-scale massacre occurred on Central Street Many people died in the bank robbery, and the people were panicked. Rachel and Harvey both believed that it was the work of another super criminal. "
The two of them had already reached the door, and Bruce was standing on the side of the road waiting for him. When Beibao walked over, he discovered that a huge van was parked behind Bruce.
"What is this?" Beibat asked.
Before he could take a closer look at the truck, something soft was stuffed into his arms. When he looked down, Aisha was grinning at him.
Beibat touched Aisha's head and smiled at her, then continued to look up at Bruce. Bruce pointed at the truck and said, "These are some gadgets that Aisha uses in her daily life. There are no restrictions on the transmission channel." Volume, you can take it back with you.”
"Bad thing." Beiba repeated the word. He walked around to the door of the carriage, stretched out his head to take a look, and after retracting his head, he looked at Bruce with wide eyes.
"I understand everything else. What's going on with the children's slide at the end?"
"That's her toy."
"But there's no need to bring it with you. I can buy her one..."
"I'm afraid one isn't enough, and she only likes the taste of this one."
"That's more... taste???"
Beiba lowered his head and glanced at Aisha again, and Aisha showed him a bright smile, her shark-like fangs flashing with a cold light.
Bei Bat immediately stopped asking.
"What kind of trouble are you in? Are you in such a hurry?" Bruce asked curiously, but it resulted in a lot of complaints from Bei Bat.
"Collusion between government and business, collusion between business and law, drug dealing, insiders in the group... I really don't know when these days will end." Beiba sighed heavily and said, "Rachel sent me a message, saying that she had found a gangster. I hope I can go back and help her investigate the clues about the deal between Boss Feconi and the super criminal codenamed Scarecrow.”
"But we all know that even if he is captured, there is no way to bring him to court. Using mental illness to escape guilt is their usual tactic..."
“The psychiatrist was bribed?”
"Of course, it's more than that, almost the entire legal system has been bribed."
"Then buy it back."
BeiBa stared at Bruce, and Bruce said, "Purchase money to buy them back."
"But this is bribery and interference with the outcome of justice. I cannot do anything illegal."
"You are just correcting all of this, using the same means as them." Bruce looked at Beiba and said: "It is the money you paid that ensured judicial justice."
Beibat turned his head to the side, put his hands on his hips and said: "You should understand that these people are all jackals who have been fed an appetite. They will open their mouths to anyone. I can't interfere with the operation of Wayne Group because of this, shareholders." They won’t agree either.”
"Then don't use Wayne Group's money, use your personal money."
"I don't have that much money." Beiba said: "Most of the money is in fixed assets, and a small part is needed to operate foundations and trusts."
"I think you can also start some industry or something. Although Thomas and Martha left a lot of inheritance, they don't have much liquidity. Coupled with inflation, it's not an option to sit back and eat everything."
"It's not that I haven't thought about it," Beiba said, "but CEO Earl previously vetoed all my joint investment plans and even interfered with the flow of my personal funds. He caused me a lot of trouble at the shareholders' meeting. , I was so busy dealing with him that I had no time to invest on my own.”
"Do you have any specific investment plans?"
Beibat thought for a while and said: "I have a prototype in my mind, but it is nothing more than those few sets. I decided to first pick up some of the charities that Earl gave up before. I can also invest my own money in it, even if the return is not good. "It's important to save people."
Bruce shook his head and said, "This is totally unsustainable, you know that."
Beiba's face was not very good. Of course he understood that by the time he was old enough to inherit the Wayne Group, Earl had almost controlled all the shareholders. Not only did they give up all charity, they also did all the things that a consortium would do. , exploiting employees, offering and accepting bribes, and rigging elections.
After returning from the fighting world, Beibat made up his mind to take back the rights from Earl, but at this time his plan had not been completely completed. The Wayne Group was still powerless to reform, let alone make money for itself.
This is an endless cycle. If he has no money, he will not be able to deal with this group of officials, criminals and shareholders. But if he wants to deal with these people, he must first have money.
"The personality trait that now dominates Professor Schiller's body is that of a financial planner who, if you are willing to pay, can give you a financial plan that is absolutely effective and simple to implement."
Beibat raised his eyebrows. He still believed in Schiller's ability, but he never knew that Schiller could do business. Bruce patted him on the shoulder and said, "Their personality traits are different. Some of them are so different." If you are good at psychology, you are good at economics. Do you want to try it?”
Beiba licked his lips, looked at Bruce and said, "How much does it cost?"
Bruce took out a business card from his pocket, put it into Beibao's pocket and said, "You should have a Doujie beta terminal, right? Contact this number. Maybe he doesn't necessarily want money, but believe me, pay Money is the cheapest.”
Beibat touched his suit pocket, nodded and said, "Thank you for your kindness, but let me ask one more question, where are you going on this trip? I heard you want to send the Robins there. There’s Batman in metal armor.”
"The place we are going to is not very far, but we have to go to several places." Bruce stretched and said, "The boss doesn't work hard. He paddles and fishes all day long and sleeps. He doesn't know how to run even after being locked up. What can I do? manage?"
Baybat patted Bruce on the shoulder, and the two looked at each other and smiled. Bruce stood at the door of Wayne Manor and watched Baybat leave.
Then he turned back and shouted towards the manor hall: "Come here! Come here! Pack up and get ready to go to the concert!"
The children rushed out cheering, among them Jason was the fastest. He ran down the stairs and said, "Did you listen to the radio last night? Biggie's new song is so great! I thought he could The album is about to be released, but I didn’t expect it to be a new single!”
"You are wrong, 2p's new single is the real B version of the chart! We have to let the results speak for itself." Another voice came from the back garden, Peter jumped in from the window, still holding a roll in his hand poster.
"I can't believe he's in Gotham for a new song signing. Look at the new poster I grabbed! It's signed by both of them!"
The children immediately approached and discovered that the poster was actually a photo of Biggie and 2p.
"Oh my god, is the person who printed this photo dying? I heard that the two of them turned against each other." Dick's eyes widened and he said, "Wait, there are signatures, how could they sign their photo?"
"You are too ill-informed." Peter looked at Dick with some contempt and said: "Don't you know that Biggie appeared at the 2p book signing? And he appeared as a surprise easter egg. The two of them reconciled. ”
"Yes, yes," Tim said, "I heard the broadcast very late last night. Biggie said on the broadcast that the conflict between them was a complete misunderstanding, and I think he was implying that someone was instigating the discord."
"Oh my god!" Jason exclaimed at the explosive gossip, and immediately pulled Tim to ask him to repeat what was broadcast yesterday.
"I pulled you to listen yesterday, but you didn't listen." Tim pushed him away and said, "You insist on sleeping, and you missed the exciting part, and you want me to tell you that there is no door!"
Jason snorted and said, "If you don't tell me, I'll tell your aunt that you listen to rap!"
"God! Are you crazy? This is going to make her bitch about my dad for ten hours... Okay, okay, don't get the phone, I'm telling you."
They were chatting around the fireplace. Alfred walked over and turned on the TV, tuned to the Gotham local TV channel, and the host's voice came from inside.
"I can't believe that such a big surprise can happen in this city. I have said before that Gotham has its own unique artistic atmosphere, which is no worse than any other city."
"I think you're being too modest," one music critic said. "If two top rappers find inspiration here and even put aside their differences in order to make better music, then I say Gotham It’s definitely a music city.”
"Do you know anything about the past of those two rappers?" the host said in a slightly gossipy tone.
The discussion in front of the screen also stopped, and everyone pricked up their ears to hear if people in the industry knew anything.
They saw on the TV screen that the host was white and the music critic was black. The critic turned his palms and said: "There is no doubt that Christopher's radio interview yesterday was implying something. Some people want to To sow discord between them.”
"Regarding this part, do you think he is exaggerating or has some conspiracy theories?"
"I don't think so." The black critic sighed and said, "You know how much the popularity of rap music has caused those gentlemen who insist on drawing strict rules for popular music."
"This society does not want to see a music group dominated by black people with such great commercial value, because the higher the commercial value, the greater the voice."
"I don't know if I can say this on this show. The silence of the black community for many years has made people forget that we have tongues, even the black people themselves."
"When we find some street kids who say they would rather sell drugs than make music, I know that this society has spent a hundred years making an entire race believe that they are worthless, that they are inherently evil, mean, and hopeless, but this is absolutely not the case."
"If all channels are blocked, if we are destined to be forced into silence, then music will be our only salvation."
