The one person the Rothschild family dares not touch now is Bruce.


    Bruce has exposed two significant scandals involving the Rothschild family, and the evidence he presents is indisputable. Given this situation, if anything were to happen to him, the Rothschild family would inevitably be implicated, and the public would likely ce the me squarely on their shoulders.


    At that point, not only would the two scandals remain unresolved, but a third scandal could emerge, and it could lead to another life being lost.


    Meanwhile, Howard’s eldest son received a phone call and responded gravely, “Father, the short video tform has turned down our request for a meeting.”


    “Turned us down?” Howard frowned and replied, “I’m Howard Ross. Childe, the head of North America, wanted to meet, and they had the audacity to refuse?”<h3 style="background-color:DodgerBlue">


    “Yes…” the eldest son replied with a note of helplessness, “We made it clear that you wished to meet with them, but they still said no.”


    After a moment of contemtion, Howard said coldly, “They didn’t outright refuse on the spot; they took a few minutes first. It seems they reported the situation back to China. The Wade family clearly doesn’t want to meet with me.”


    As he spoke, Howard clenched his teeth and added, “I can’t believe that Bruce Wade has been gone for so many years, and the Wade family remains so obstinate. With their limited size, theyck someone like Bruce Wade to rally resources and support. They’re just insignificant yers in front of the Rothschild family, yet they still dare to oppose us. They are seriously overestimating their own capabilities!”


    A young man from the Rothschild family chimed in during a video conference, “Grandpa, the short video tform has seen explosive growth over the past year or so, and it boasts a vast user base globally. Although it hasn’t gone public yet, the current market valuation is estimated to be nearly $400 billion.”


    “Four hundred billion?!” Howard eximed in disbelief. “Are you sure? How can a mere short video tform be valued so highly?!”


    The young man nodded and exined, “Short videos are taking the world by storm. In this process, China’s short video tform has be so popr that even our established Intepanies can’t keep up. Moreover, short videos have be the traffic gateway for various industries. Every business is trying to leverage these tforms to gain traffic and mize it. They hold significant power in boosting emerce, virtual services, and value-added services. The $400 billion figure is actually a conservative estimate. Given a little more time, they could even surpass Facebook’s market cap of $800 billion.”<fn7f9f> Th?s chapter is updated by find{n}ovel</fn7f9f>


    “Damn it!” Howard swore angrily, “How could such a massivepany fall into the hands of the Wade family? Their own size can’t even reach $200 billion, can it?”


    The young man sighed, “Grandpa, this is how the Inte industry works. If you’re at the forefront, you can skyrocket overnight. Just look at Zuckerberg and how he turned Facebook into an $800 billionpany.”


    Howard couldn’t help but shake his head in frustration, muttering, “Damn! The Wade family truly struck gold! If the short video tform goes public and achieves a $400 billion valuation, the Wade family could be the most powerful family in China!”


    “Yes,” the young man affirmed. “It’s practically a done deal.”


    Howardmented bitterly, “It seems that a family’s rise isn’t just about having one or two exceptional talents. Bruce Wade was formidable, yet he couldn’t elevate the Wade family to the top. Now, they have the means to easily acquire a short video tform.” Just as Howard was feeling disheartened, his eldest son received another call, his expression shifting to one of concern as he ryed the news, “Father, public sentiment is shifting rapidly. An investigative task force has been established in Washington. They are on their way to Brooklyn Prison for an inquiry, and the New York Bureau of Prisons along with the FBI are set to take control of Brooklyn Prison. The takeover team is already en route. This is a disaster!”


    Howard’s face darkened. “This trouble is escting…”


    He quickly added, “Do you have Bruce Weinstein’s contact information? I need to call him!”


    At that moment, Bruce Weinstein was in his office, preparing to record his third video.


    To maintain focus, he had switched his mobile phone to airne mode. However, he was caught off guard when thendline phone on his desk began to ring.


    He picked up the phone, his irritation evident as he snapped, “What’s going on?”


    “Hello Bruce, this is Howard Rothschild, the head of the Rothschild family,” Howard patiently introduced himself. “I wanted to reach out regarding your situation. I’ve heard about it, and I truly apologize…”


    Bruce interrupted angrily, “You old fool, you’re sorry? Don’t think I’m unaware of your intentions! You just want me to change my mind! Let me make this clear: I will never give you that chance. This time, I will fight you to the death!”
