Please vote for recommendation and favorites After the disintegration of the Soviet Union in the last century, the United States became the only superpower in the world.
The developed United States was hailed as the banner of a "free country" in terms of economy, military, culture and politics, and every ordinary American also They all think so.
In the 21st century, the world has entered the information age.
Relying on the power of science and technology, the national power of the United States has been further enhanced.
This can be seen just from the wealth owned by the United States.
Among the world's richest people, most of them are Americans, and this does not include those consortiums, companies, etc. with assets of more than hundreds of billions.
The most famous rich man is, of course, Bill Gates, who once occupied the world's richest man position.
Bill Gates dropped out of college and founded Microsoft with his friends, thus becoming the world's richest man from an ordinary young man.
His legendary experience has been Countless young people worship and regard him as an idol.
But in fact, although these so-called rich people have their names high on the rich list, very few people know that in fact, the real rich people, or those who can really control the top of the country secretly, But it is invisible to the world.
Raymond Anthony is such an invisible figure.
Few people in the outside world know that he exists.
However, in the eyes of some people, Raymond Anthony is undoubtedly a "big shot."
In the United States, the President of the United States is of course a big shot.
Don't forget that the president has a term.
When the term ends, the president of the United States becomes a "former president", and his influence is only limited to a very small range, not to mention Even during the presidential term, being the President of the United States does not mean that you can do whatever you want.
You can decide everything by yourself, because behind each president there is often a huge think tank, including consultants and experts in various fields.
In many aspects, decisions issued in the name of the President of the United States or Orders come from the advisers behind him.
From this point of view, the President of the United States is just a representative on the table.
But Raymond Anthony is different.
His influence cannot be compared with that of ordinary rich people.
Whether it is in the two major parties that take turns in power or in other forces, the relationships controlled by the Anthony family are intricate.
After a century of operation, their influence has spread all over the world.
Everywhere, not only can they influence changes in the political situation of the United States, but they can even directly influence the current president's decision-making through means.
As for wealth, the Anthony family is even more wealthy than the rest of the country.
The wealth figures in their hands are far from being comparable to those of the nominal richest people.
Raymond Anthony, 70 years old this year, is the head of the Anthony family and a well-deserved leader.
One of the few people standing at the top of the pyramid.
On the outskirts of Little Rock, there is a ranch that few people know about.
This is the residence of Raymond Anthony.
The pasture is not large, much smaller than those large pastures that cover vast areas.
At the same time, due to its relatively remote location, not many people will pay attention to it.
Wearing a cowboy hat, Raymond Anthony rode his horse as usual as he trotted in his pasture.
Behind the horse, his dog Damon followed behind, running around happily with his tongue hanging out.
It seemed that he had been there all year round.
When exercising outdoors, Raymond Anthony, who has somewhat dark skin, looks like a very ordinary old cowboy.
No one would know that this humble old man actually has power that can influence the entire United States.
After an hour of exercise, Raymond Anthony personally led the horse into the stable, unsaddled and brushed it, doing all the work meticulously.
When he was done, he patted the horse's back with a smile and greeted his "old partner" He said hello and then stepped out of the stable.
Not far from the stables, there is Raymond Anthony's home.
This is a small foreign-style building that looks similar to the house where ordinary Americans live.
However, when you walk inside, you can see the difference.
Not only is the high-tech inside the house The facilities are extremely complete, and there are quite sophisticated defense settings inside and outside the house.
If an uninvited guest enters the ranch, they will be discovered immediately, and a team of armed guards stationed only 20 meters away will immediately React quickly.
"Sir, the tea is ready."

The old butler stood at the door with a smile to welcome Raymond Anthony's return, and said softly at the same time.
"Thank you, Brooke."
Raymond Anthony smiled and nodded to the old butler.
"This is what I should do, sir."
Brooke replied with a smile, although these words have been repeated between them countless times.
From the time he came here 20 years ago until today, in Brooke's eyes, Raymond Anthony was a true gentleman.
After handing Damon to Brooke, Raymond Anthony took off his cowboy hat and walked into the room.
The freshly brewed black tea was already placed in front of the wooden chair where he was accustomed to sit, with a few newspapers beside it.
After hanging the cowboy hat on the wall, Raymond Anthony sat down in the wooden chair, picked up the black tea and took a sip.
He raised his eyebrows and nodded slightly, as if he was appreciating Brooke's good craftsmanship.
Then he took a newspaper and started reading.
Newspapers are nothing more than news about Wall Street trends, government decisions, car accidents, shootings, and riots or even wars in certain countries and places abroad.
Raymond Anthony carefully read line by line and chuckled when he saw interesting places.
Turning to the back, there was a place for crossword puzzles in the newspaper.
Raymond Anthony even took a pen and played the crossword puzzle with great interest.
This habit was developed in his youth and has not changed over the years.
Just as Raymond Anthony was filling in a few words with great interest, a slight vibration on his wrist made him stop what he was doing.
He glanced at the special watch on his wrist.
Raymond Anthony stood up and went directly upstairs.
When he arrived on the third floor, he pressed his palm on a wall, and soon there was a reaction on the wall.
A scanning device the size of a window was exposed on the wall.
Raymond Anthony leaned his head over it, and when the iris scan was completed, the entire wall was silent.
Breathlessly moved to one side.
Behind the wall is a small room.
This is the most important place for Raymond Anthony.
Apart from him, not even the old butler Brooke has permission to enter.
When he walked into the room, the wall behind him closed at the same time.
If he didn't know there was a room here, it would be difficult to tell with the naked eye that this wall was actually an alloy door that couldn't be blasted by explosives.
"Agent Galen" Sitting down on a chair, the screen in front of him lit up, and Galen's figure soon appeared in front of Raymond Anthony.
"Mr.
Anthony," Galen said with a flattering smile.
"Why are you so anxious to find me?"
Raymond Anthony asked with a calm expression.
"That's good news."
Galen's respectful expression showed a trace of concealed pride, and he said with a smile: "I have convinced Professor Kevin Adams to serve the Zeus Project."
Raymond Anthony showed a slight surprise and continued to ask calmly: "I remember you just talked to him today, and the result was obtained so quickly."
"You are right."
Galen nodded and said: "We have all overestimated Professor Adams.
He is just an ordinary scholar.
As long as we give some benefits to such a person, the problem can be solved."
"Benefit" "Status, wealth, fame, the feeling of being respected, plus a sense of mission to save the security of the United States and promote the progress of human civilization, don't we all want these as an aspiring scholar?"
Galen explained with a smile.
Raymond Anthony laughed immediately.
Galen was right.
These things are indeed what ordinary people yearn for, let alone an ordinary scholar.

Regarding Kevin's persuasion strategy before, Raymond Anthony was more cautious due to the importance of the plan.
He was mainly worried about Kevin's inner resistance and his lack of cooperation.
Unexpectedly, Galen solved the problem easily.
Although he didn't know what promise Galen made to Kevin and how he convinced him specifically, these were not actually important to Raymond Anthony.
What was important was that he saw the results he hoped for.
"Well done" Raymond Anthony did not hide his praise for Galen, which made Galen on the other end of the screen beam with joy.
He knew very well what kind of big shot Raymond Anthony was, and being able to be appreciated by him was something that many people dream of. opportunity.
"Go to the next step.
You should understand how to do it."
Raymond Anthony tapped his finger on the edge of the table and continued.
"Mr.
Anthony, please rest assured that all plans will be carried out as soon as possible, and I will report the progress to you at any time."
Galen replied respectfully, and then disappeared from the other end of the screen when Raymond Anthony ended the call.
After the call ended, the joy on Raymond Anthony's face was obvious.
He even felt that he had not been so happy and looking forward to it for a long time, because the cooperation of Professor Kevin Adams finally made it possible for his Zeus plan to be realized, and this Zeus plan will Bring unprecedented benefits to Raymond Anthony.
This benefit is not an ordinary benefit, but the continuation of his life.
Although 70-year-old Raymond Anthony is in good health, according to doctors, it is possible for him to live to be 100 years old.
However, as he grew older, Raymond Anthony knew very well that his remaining time was running out.
Even though Raymond Anthony had wealth, status and influence that ordinary people could not match, he could not escape the call of death after all.
In human history, there have been countless emperors who have pursued eternity in life.
From the Pharaohs of ancient Egypt to Qin Shihuang in the far East, each of them wanted to avoid the moment when their lives ended, but in the end they were still obsessed with power and wealth.
It turned into a handful of dust.
Now, Raymond Anthony also felt the same urgency and hope of these emperors, but no matter how he tried his best to delay the arrival of this day, he could not stop the passage of time after all.
However, the appearance of Professor Kevin Adams gave him a glimmer of hope, or the possibility that his life could continue. aa2705221:
