In a manor somewhere in North America, many elders from all parties gathered together to discuss the whole matter.
After a long period of order collapse and chaos, Europe and the United States have been severely damaged. Although order has been re-established and restored, the sky of the earth has already changed.
The substantial depreciation of green coins is like waste paper. It is a heavy blow to Liangliguo and many of his followers, and it has not yet come out of its shadow.
There is no real economy and industry, relying on arms, finance, and high-tech industries as support, and now only arms and weapons are left.
As for the financial industry and high-tech industry, they have been hit hard by previous actions, and countless financial companies, banks, securities companies, and high-tech companies have collapsed.
However, history always has striking similarities. No one is willing to fail, and no one is willing to give up the interests in their hands.
The same is true for them. There is definitely no hope of financial recovery in the short term, but some small-scale areas can still continue to play, including the futures market.
The futures market has always been in their hands, the largest of which is naturally the oil trade, from which they have gained huge benefits.
They have huge oil and gas resources themselves, but they often do not exploit them very much. Instead, they first purchase resources in other places around the world, and they also need to control the global oil and gas discourse, pricing power, etc.
Taking advantage of their own right to speak, they can rise when they want to rise and fall when they want to fall. Between the rise and fall, rolling wealth will come into their hands.
"Oil prices have dropped too much now."
"This is mainly because the East produces too much oil. In the past, they were the world's largest oil consumer market. Now, they have in turn become the world's largest fuel export region."
"If we want to regain control of oil, I'm afraid we have to cooperate with them."
Wells looked at the many elders in front of him, thought for a while and said.
“Are oil-producing areas still willing to listen to us?”
Brad thought for a moment and asked.
Today is different from the past, the influence of Meiliguo has dropped sharply, and the previously obedient subordinates now have their own thoughts and ideas.
The severe economic collapse has also made it impossible to maintain military bases and military deterrence around the world. A large number of bases have had to announce closures and evacuations, and expenditures in all aspects have also been greatly reduced.
Generally speaking, the situation is getting worse, and the younger brothers also have a tendency to fall and scatter.
Wells shook his head and said, "Only our true friends are willing to help us."
The real friends Wells spoke of were naturally the areas of the Anglo-Saxons in the traditional sense.
"It's very difficult to regain the right to speak."
After hearing this, Brad sighed helplessly.
The current situation is that there is no money in hand. Green coins are no different from waste paper. If you take them out, no one will take them. And they have never had any foreign exchange reserves.
They don’t have any industrial status, how do you ask them to make money?
The younger brothers who were obedient in the past no longer pay attention to me, and it is really difficult to regain the right to speak.
“Have the prices of rare earths fallen?”
At this time, Brady thought for a while and said.
The only thing that can be done now is the manufacturing of arms and weapons. But this industry needs chaos. Only with chaos can arms and weapons be sold easily. At the same time, manufacturing advanced arms and weapons requires the use of a large amount of rare earths.
Therefore, he is most concerned about rare earths.
What we can do now is not to have a say in the global futures market, but to gain a say in rare earths first, so that we can use cheap rare earths to create sophisticated weapons with lower costs.
Only arms and weapons can be exported on a large scale.
Their arms and weapons are considered to be the most advanced in the world. Well, except that they cannot manufacture anti-gravity related weapons, they have absolute advantages in other aspects.
"No, Xinghai Mining Group refuses to cut prices, and they are even buying rare earths on a large scale. As a result, the price of rare earths has not only not dropped, but has continued to rise."
Terry, who was also concerned about rare earth prices, shook his head and said.
"shit~"
"Fuck!"
When Brady heard this, he immediately cursed.
Xinghai Technology is really a troublemaker. It is because of this Xinghai Technology that everyone has suffered heavy losses.
The high-tech industries invested in have closed down one after another. Electronics, medicine, aircraft manufacturing, energy, automobiles and many other fields are all due to the emergence of Xinghai Technology, so everything is what it is now.
Otherwise, they should be sharing a beautiful vacation with sexy beauties on the beach in Hawaii at this moment, instead of powerlessly discussing how to survive in the future.
“How much money does Xinghai Technology have to hoard rare earths?”
"According to the information we have now, the output of rare earths mined on the moon is ten times that of the earth. All these rare earths are in the hands of Xinghai Technology. Do they have that much money to eat them?"
Terry thought for a while and said.
"I'm afraid even if it's ten times more, Xinghai Technology will have enough funds to absorb it."
"Although Xinghai Technology has not disclosed any financial data to the outside world, according to our evaluation, its monthly turnover has exceeded 1 trillion fruit coins, and its profit margin is very high, which means
It has extremely huge funds in its hands to hoard rare earths."
Wells thought for a while and said: "It is absolutely impossible to defeat Xinghai Technology through economic means. The only ones who can defeat Xinghai Technology are themselves."
"Are we just giving up the right to speak?"
Brady said reluctantly: "If nothing else, everyone knows the importance of rare earths, and high-tech fields cannot do without this stuff."
"snort!"
"They want to eat, so let's let them eat as much as they can. As for rare earths, we are also one of the regions with the largest rare earth reserves in the world. We didn't dig it before, but now we use our own rare earths first. I want to
Let’s see how long they can survive.”
"But mining rare earths will seriously pollute the environment and cause a lot of trouble."
Terry thought for a while and said.
"If there is any trouble, the only solution is to amend the law. I think we should clearly understand our status and situation now. We are no longer who we were before."
"Look at the streets and alleys of the city now. There are unemployed people and homeless people everywhere. Look at the night in the city. Gunshots are everywhere. Without jobs, there is no bread. Do we want to continue like this?"
"If we continue like this, we will fall into a bottomless abyss and never think about it again."
"If we want to be glorious again, we must make some changes. The resources that should be mined must be mined, and the things that should be done must be done."
"There are also all kinds of guilds that have been in the way. They should also be cancelled. Without their existence, our industry will never develop, and we will never be able to become glorious."
"Think about the last century, when we produced 60% of the world's industrial products. We were the most glorious and powerful at that time. Now we have to import everything, and we have lost high technology and finance. A roll of paper towels
It has already risen to the sky."
Brady thought for a while and said.
He counts those who have seen it more clearly and understand the current situation and circumstances, so they must pick up some of the industries that were lost in the past.
They still have huge advantages in this regard. They have a huge working population and a very large number of educated people. They still have huge advantages in the high-tech field, with the largest number of scientists, top universities, engineers, researchers, etc. in the world.
It has vast land, developed agriculture, and abundant resources. These are its advantages. As long as they are fully utilized, it will only be a matter of time before it rises again.
"Brady, you are right. Maybe it is time for us to recognize the reality and make huge changes."
After hearing this, everyone else nodded.
The current situation, these elite groups, naturally see it clearly. Times have changed. They have changed to the point where they can no longer control niche resources like rare earths. If they don't change themselves, they may really lose control of the current situation.
I couldn't get up either.
"Brandy, why don't you compete for the position of president? I think your idea is right."
"I will support it~"
"I will also support you. What we need now is no longer compromises and promises to ordinary people. What we need now is people who use an iron fist to stabilize the situation, restore industry, provide a large number of jobs, and revive our economy."
Brad looked at Brandi, thought for a moment and said, "If this continues, we will only get worse and worse."
"If you are willing to support me, once I succeed, I will realize what I promised, attach importance to industry, allow resource extraction, abolish guilds, etc., and promote employment. Of course, the most important thing is to target this Xinghai Technology and thoroughly
Defeat this Xinghai Technology."
"If we can obtain the technology and technology of Xinghai Technology, we can recover again in a very short period of time, return to the top, and live the good life before."
Brandy looked at everyone, and was very moved when she thought about it, so she made a promise to everyone.
In this magical country, everything is possible, and it is very common for businessmen to become politicians. The key is to see if anyone is willing to support you, and nothing else matters.
"We will support you~"
"Yes, we will fully support you."
"We look forward to your leadership in returning us to glory!"
"We need you so much to lead us out of the abyss and quagmire."
