Two Realms Shuttle Gate: Don't Call Me a Demon!-Chapter 969 - 524: You Tai’s Response 2

When the meeting commenced, those present were all influential figures in the Beautiful Country.

Some were renowned directors and actors; others were presidents of entertainment companies, capable of wielding immense power in Hollywood.

There were media moguls whose control over media outlets could make people tremble in fear.

Some were rising stars from the internet industry, with multinational companies under their belt, possessing vast user bases that could even sway election support rates in the Beautiful Country.

Without exception, they were all of Jewish descent, and even among them, they were elites from various sectors, holding significant positions in their industries, wielding vast amounts of resources and capital.

In fact, membership in the joint public affairs committee of the Beautiful Country and You Tai Country is meticulously selected, requiring multiple rigorous inspections. Ordinary people of Jewish descent have no right to enter this organization, which already encompasses the majority of Jewish elites in the Beautiful Country.

In the conference room, Isaac, as the president, spoke first: "Gentlemen, the current situation is very unfavorable for us. You’ve all heard about the Samsung Lee family incident, haven’t you? The Jieke Group dispatched Genetic Warriors to take action. Now, our role as the mastermind behind the scenes isn’t likely to be a secret to Jieke Group."

An oppressive silence filled the room. Even these influential figures who could command the wind and rain in the outside world couldn’t help but shiver slightly when they heard the name of the Jieke Group. Many looked visibly worried.

"Isaac, you’ve been somewhat careless. I say, we shouldn’t have provoked the Jieke Group in the first place. How are we supposed to wrap up this situation now?"

Breaking the silence, a man named Elliot Ewan Francis spoke. He was the founder of a globally recognized social networking site, a rising star of the internet in the new century, and ranked fifth on the world’s billionaire list with a personal fortune of $200 billion.

Even among the Jewish members present, his status was one of the highest.

After Francis spoke, others began to chime in.

"The Jieke Group has employed a decapitation tactic. Given their operational style, they might very well target us next."

"We shouldn’t have gotten involved in this messy situation. We haven’t gained any benefits and now stand in opposition to the Jieke Group."

"Are you all fools? The Jieke Group’s moves have eaten into so much of our pie. Those biological batteries have cost us a fortune, and various Jieke Group products have long heavily impacted our market. Should we just sit idly by?"

"It was originally an issue for the Beautiful Country, but now it’s become a conflict between us and the Jieke Group. What’s going on here?"

"The Beautiful Country is also our country. The interests eroded by the Jieke Group sweep across the globe. We just happened to be at the forefront of opposing the Jieke Group, but we won’t be the last."

Complaints and quarrels filled the room. The ruthless tactics of the Jieke Group truly frightened these high-ranking You Tai elites, accustomed as they were to a certain lifestyle of luxury.

"We all agreed initially on taking action against the Jieke Group. Complaining and regretting here isn’t going to solve anything. Will regret make the Jieke Group stop? We gathered everyone to come up with strategies, not to hold a pity party."

Isaac pounded the table forcefully, interrupting the ongoing quarrel.

The room quieted down significantly. Francis squinted and asked, "Isaac, if you have any ideas, feel free to say them."

Others also turned their attention to Isaac, the president, a Wall Street financial mogul with vast financial capital under his control. Given his ties to You Tai Country, he’s the representative figure for the You Tai in the Beautiful Country.

"What I want to say is that we’ve already provoked the Jieke Group, and now we have no way out unless we voluntarily surrender to them, which is impossible."

Isaac cleared his throat, setting the tone for the matter.

"Easier said than done. The Genetic Warrior’s decapitation tactics are terrifying. I say, surrendering might not be..."

Someone muttered softly. Among the Jewish elite present, most were businessmen and capitalists. For businessmen, peace is paramount, and the inherent weakness of the capitalist class makes them prone to capitulation when faced with power.

"Nonsense!"

Isaac retorted coldly, interrupting the speaker, his expression fierce: "Have you forgotten the lessons of history? Why did we wander for millennia back then? Because some of us were too weak. Now, we’ve finally attained our current status and have our own country.

If we surrender to the Jieke Group, what does that mean?

It tells others that we are weak and can be easily bullied, that we can be readily exploited.

Today, if we surrender to the Jieke Group, tomorrow, when other forces demand we surrender, should we continue surrendering?

One thing leads to another. Setting a precedent will result in unimaginable consequences. Does everyone want to repeat the past, allowing those countries to recall their historical animosities with us?"

Isaac’s words were sharp and heavy, causing many of the Jewish listeners to break out in cold sweat.

Indeed!

You Tai have risen now. They are accustomed to comfortable living and have been revered for so long, almost forgetting the past struggles of a life filled with suffering.

The Jewish endured a millennium of wandering, constantly persecuted and plundered by other countries.

Even in the deeply rooted settings of Europe and America, the countries there, each more or less, have launched various levels of exclusionary actions against the Jewish in the past—discrimination, insults, oppression, and slaughter were commonplace.

The Crusaders’ plunders and massacres of the Jewish, the late 15th-century complete expulsion from the Bull Fighting Country, the multiple rampant antijewish movements by the Emperor in the 19th and 20th centuries.

And the antijewish vanguard, He-era of the 30s and 40s of the last century, took this movement to its peak.

At that time, the Jewish were seen by many countries as nothing more than fat sheep, slaughtered for steady profit.

Thinking of this, if they reveal their weaknesses, perhaps the Jewish will once again become easy pickings for other countries, ready to be plundered at will.

"But what about the Genetic Warriors of the Jieke Group?"

Francis, frowning, acknowledged the reasoning in Isaac’s words, but the threat from the Jieke Group was evident and something everyone needed to address.

"There’s only one way: get the Jieke Group embroiled in war so that they have no time to care about us. Or perhaps, destroy the Jieke Group completely.

We need to incite other countries to join the war against the Jieke Group, especially the Beautiful Country.

If the Beautiful Country steps in and truly wages war against the Jieke Group, not only will our safety be secured, but we can also use the Beautiful Country’s power to eliminate the Jieke Group and seize the abundant spoils left in its aftermath."

Isaac paused at this point and continued: "Of course, before success, considering the threat of the Genetic Warriors, we can temporarily seek refuge in You Tai Country.

I’ve already spoken with the high-ranking officials in You Tai Country; they’ll dispatch troops to protect us. Over there, we’re all brothers and sisters. If the Jieke Group sends Genetic Warriors, they won’t be able to hide their yellow faces, and our safety will be assured."

"Inciting war! That’s very challenging, but I said I would, and I’ll have my companies get involved."

Francis was already somewhat moved. His control over social media could stir public sentiment, playing a role in fanning the flames.

Although knowing it’s very challenging and that other countries being involved wouldn’t really matter, nor would they dare. Only the Beautiful Country, as the Blue Star Dominator, could effectively strike and even destroy the Jieke Group.

Just as well, their influence among the You Tai in the Beautiful Country is significant, and this remains a possibility, especially now that the Jieke Group has launched the Biological Battery, threatening the Beautiful Country’s oil dollar hegemony.

"I’m willing."

"I’ll talk to familiar officials to lobby."

"If it’s about funding, I can provide up to a billion."

Jewish elites present exchanged glances, collectively acknowledging this proposal. It was indeed an effective suggestion.

As long as the Beautiful Country steps in and shifts the conflict elsewhere, the Jewish can watch the Beautiful Country as it engages in battle, then step in after the war to take the prize.

"Because this is our war with Jieke Group, and God will protect us You Tai; victory belongs to the great You Tai nation."

Isaac slammed the table, interrupting the disputes in the room.

The room fell much quieter. Francis narrowed his eyes, asking, "Isaac, don’t hesitate to share your thoughts."

Others turned their gaze towards President Isaac. As a Wall Street tycoon, he holds enormous financial power and, coupled with his connections in You Tai Country, represents the You Tai in the Beautiful Country.

"What I want to say is, considering we’ve already crossed the Rubicon with Jieke Group, we have no retreat unless we willingly surrender to Jieke Group. But that’s out of the question."

Isaac cleared his throat, first setting the nature of the issue.

"Easy for you to say, but with the devastation caused by the Genetic Warriors’ decapitation tactics, I think surrendering might not be... "

Someone muttered under their breath. Most of the Jewish elites present were businesspeople and capitalists, who typically value harmony and due to their class’s inherent weakness tend to easily yield to force.

"Nonsense!"

Isaac scoffed coldly, cutting him off, his brows furrowed with severity: "Have you forgotten the lessons of history? Why did we wander for a thousand years? It’s because some of us were too weak. Now that we have finally achieved our current status and have our own nation.

If we surrender to the Jieke Group, what does that imply?

It implies to others that we You Tai are weak and can be easily exploited.

If today we surrender to the Jieke Group, tomorrow, when other powers demand our surrender, will we continue to submit to their will?

Once it starts, it continues—setting such a precedent can have unimaginable consequences. Do we really want to repeat the mistakes of the past and remind those nations of their historic animosities towards us?"

Isaac’s words were sharp, and his tone grave, causing many of the Jewish present to break out in cold sweat.

Indeed!

Now the You Tai has truly risen. They have been living a privileged life for so long, spoiled by the flattery of others, that they’ve almost forgotten the past hardships they endured.

For millennia, the Jewish people wandered, facing ostracism and plundering by other nations.

Even in the societies where the Jewish are now most deeply rooted, in Europe and America, every country there, without exception, has in the past engaged in exclusionary activities against the Jewish community—discriminatorily, insultingly, oppressively, and slaughteringly.

From the Crusaders’ plunder and massacre of the Jewish, to the wholesale expulsion by the Bull Fighting Country at the end of the fifteenth century, and the repeated anti-Jewish waves by the Emperor in the 19th and 20th centuries.

And the anti-Jewish vanguard, the He-era of the 30s and 40s.

At that time, in the eyes of those states, the Jewish were nothing more than fat sheep, butchered for fat profits.

Upon reflection, if they expose their weaknesses, the Jewish community might again face the specters of expulsion.

"But what about the Genetic Warriors from the Jieke Group?"

Francis frowned, acknowledging the reasoning in Isaac’s words but was apprehensive about the threat from the Jieke Group, which was becoming palpable to everyone.

"There’s only one solution: embroil the Jieke Group in warfare, so they have no time for us. Alternatively, we could get the beautiful country involved, and if they go to war with Jieke Group, not only will we ensure our safety, we might even resolve things using the hands of the Beautiful Country."

Francis felt somewhat moved already. He assured them that he would have his companies participate.

"I’m committed, and I’m willing to have my companies join in."

The Jewish elites exchanged glances, collectively acknowledging this proposal. It was indeed viewed as an effective suggestion.

As long as the Beautiful Country participates, tensions will shift, allowing the Jewish community to observe the Beautiful Country in the heat of battle and positioning themselves for post-war gains.

"Because this is our war with Jieke Group, and God will bless us You Tai, victory belongs to the great Jewish people."

After expressing their loyalty to God and agreeing on the next course of action, many Jewish elites listened intently, breaking out in cold sweat.

Indeed, the Jewish people have risen, accustomed to comfortable lives and being flattered, they almost forgot the previous hardships faced by their ancestors.

For thousands of years, the Jewish people wandered, continuously facing exclusion and plundering from other nations.

Even in the deeply rooted Europe and America society of the present day, each country has, in one form or another, engaged in exclusionary activities against You Tai in the past, with discrimination, insults, oppression, and massacres being all too common.

From the Crusaders’ looting and massacres of the Jewish to the comprehensive expulsion of the Jewish from the Bull Fighting Country in the late 15th century, and the rampant anti-Jewish waves by the Emperor in the 19th and 20th centuries.

Likewise, the anti-Jewish vanguard in the thirties and forties of the previous century, especially in the context of the oil dollar hegemony now threatened by the Jieke Group’s launch of Biological Batteries.

Just the thought of it—if they reveal their own weakness, the Jewish might once again become a target for exploitation and repression.

"But what about the Genetic Warriors of Jieke Group?"

Francis frowned again, acknowledging the threat that was visibly concerning to many of the Jewish elites present.

"Only one solution remains, to drag the Jieke Group into a conflict so they’re too occupied to bother us, or better yet, resolve the issue through the Beautiful Country’s intervention."

Francis was slightly tempted by now, considering that other countries might be reluctant or ineffective, only the Blue Star Dominator, the Beautiful Country, could effectively combat and potentially eliminate the Jieke Group, especially now that their Biological Battery poses a threat to the Beautiful Country’s oil dollar hegemony.

"I’m willing to have my companies involved."

Those present exchanged looks, agreeing on the proposal and signifying their consensus for the upcoming endeavors. They gathered to express their loyalty to God and consolidate a consensus on the actions to be taken.

Indeed, many Jewish elites present broke out in cold sweat while listening.

Now, the Jewish have truly risen. Used to living in luxury and being praised for a long time, they nearly forgot the past life of destitution and suffering.

For millennia, the Jewish community dodged away from home, facing persecution and robbery by other nations.

Even in contemporary Europe and America, places where the Jewish are most deeply rooted, every country has, to some degree, engaged in anti-Jewish events in the past—continuous discrimination, insults, oppression, and even massacres happened frequently.

From the Crusaders’ plundering and massacres of the Jewish, to the Bull Fighting Country’s complete expulsion of Jewish descendants in the late 15th century, to the recurrent anti-Jewish waves unleashed by the Emperor throughout the 19th and 20th centuries.

Also, the anti-Jewish vanguards during the 30s and 40s of the last century, when the Jewish community was seen as a cash cow to be fatted for slaughter by many countries.

Considering this, showing any weakness might make the Jewish susceptible to open persecution again.
