Chapter 827 We have to fulfill our social responsibilities
"President Reagan issued a statement at the White House to suspend arms exports for three months. On behalf of Raytheon, I expressed my position and fully cooperated with the president's statement. Our American weapons are produced to resolve disputes, not to become the basis of pirates. In order to cooperate with the White House,
We will shut down 50% of our military supplies production lines and lay off 8,462 people," Strauss said seriously. The reporters below were first shocked and dumbfounded by the news, and then exploded.
Big news, absolutely big news. Almost tens of thousands of people were laid off, just to match the White House's statement. Only a ghost can believe it. However, it is not unreasonable to say so. Weapons are not exported. In order to match the president's statement, you can't find anything.
Trouble comes.
Strauss pressed his hands down to ask the reporters to be quiet. "The layoffs will be carried out immediately. We will consciously reduce weapons production and exports. Although our Thor's life will be difficult, this is our social responsibility.
Mr. President is right, our weapons cannot serve pirates, thank you all." After Strauss finished speaking, he nodded and walked away gracefully with the board of directors.
As soon as this news was announced, it immediately caused an uproar. More than 8,000 people were laid off. It was an international joke. The employment rate in the United States has just improved a bit. You only have more than 8,000 people here. What do you want to do? The local government has given up first.
The mayor and his men came directly to Strauss.
In Strauss's office at the Raytheon headquarters, "Gentlemen, we are cooperating with the president's speech. If you have any problems, you can go to the president to discuss it. We can't disobey the president's orders." Strauss's words made the city
A long period of pain in the balls.
"The president didn't tell you to lay off people," the mayor roared. More than 8,000 people are unemployed. The mayor cannot bear this shock wave, and neither can the city's finances.
"The president won't let us sell goods. Our products can't support pirates. If the mayor buys our products, I won't lay off anyone." Strauss ordered it back unceremoniously. The mayor opened his mouth and couldn't say anything.
By the way, we all know that the White House has ordered that arms cannot be exported for three months.
Only two hours later, Reagan called from the White House, "Strauss, you are violating the agreement. I have the right to ban you as Thor. Don't force me to do something I don't want to do." Reagan said fiercely.
Said, Strauss smiled contemptuously.
"My dear Mr. President, the agreement states that the White House cannot interfere with our deal with Umbrella. It was you who broke the agreement first. I don't mind making this matter public." Strauss said and hung up the phone directly.
"President, bah," Strauss said directly after spitting.
Reagan heard the disconnection sound coming from the phone and threw the phone down. He underestimated the determination of these four companies. He did not issue that statement. The four companies would not dare to lay off employees. Otherwise, Reagan could deal with them openly.
Now, no, once the agreement is exposed, Reagan will definitely be in trouble.
What to do? We must find a way to organize Raytheon to lay off employees. Reagan began to think about it. He must reach an agreement with Raytheon. Otherwise, a layoff storm will form, and the employment rate that has just improved will immediately collapse.
As Raytheon's press conference was held, Boeing also held a press conference early the next morning. The reason was the same. In order to respond to the president's call, even if our company loses money, we cannot let weapons flow into the hands of pirates.
, Boeing’s military products department eliminated five production lines and laid off 17,000 people. Many reporters only cried out to God when they heard the news.
Immediately afterwards, General Motors also held a press conference to lay off 21,000 employees. This was also in response to the president's call. Even if our company loses money, we cannot let weapons flow into the hands of pirates. We are a responsible company and must
shoulder our social responsibilities.
Huntington Ingalls Industries followed suit and announced 7,900 layoffs, also in response to the president's call. Even if our company is losing money, we cannot let weapons flow into the hands of pirates. We are a responsible company.
We must shoulder our social responsibilities.
When the news was released by the media, the entire United States was in a state of shock. What should you do? Their reasons were lofty. We responded to the president's call. If you have any objections, go to the president. Don't go to us. We have to fulfill our social responsibilities.
"Bang...bang...bang" Jeff was so angry that he opened fire in his study room. He didn't like anything he saw. He couldn't sleep in Washington tonight. The four companies were not small companies.
Large companies have many suppliers, and their layoffs on such a scale will definitely cause a chain reaction.
At that time, those suppliers will definitely be unable to bear it first, and they will have to lay off workers, and the great situation will be burned down. Okay, okay, okay, you are determined to fight me until death. Just wait for me.
, this matter is not over yet, Jeff’s face is livid.
Reagan, Jeff, and Addison were sitting in Jeff's chaotic room. Each of them looked very gloomy. Jeff wanted to talk to the four companies to stabilize the situation for the time being, but
None of the four companies answered the phone. It was obvious that the four companies did not want to talk and had nothing to talk about.
When the three of them were sullen and silent, they remembered the knock on the door. Jeff frowned and said "come in". The door opened and the butler came in with a document.
"Sir, this is an urgent document that was just delivered. You need to open it yourself." The butler said directly and handed the document to Jeff. Jeff took the document and waved his hand to let the butler go out. The butler closed the door. No.
Interrupt their conversation.
Jeff opened it, looked at it, threw the document away, raised his hand and picked up the pistol on the table, and wanted to shoot, which shocked both Reagan and Addison. Jeff's expression changed several times,
The veins on his neck were all exposed. He tried hard to control himself and put the gun down again.
"Umbrella attacked Singapore" Jeff said with a gloomy face. Addison and Reagan's faces became even darker. Umbrella was so bold.
"It was said that it was attacked by pirates, and there are videos. They all have accents from Indonesia, India, and Thailand. The umbrella blew up the communication facilities, so we received the news." Jeff gritted his teeth and said about the umbrella.
Made to be watertight.
The time for Umbrella's general attack on Singapore was half past eight in the evening. All personnel and weapons were in place, and everything that needed to be prepared was ready. Bai Jingting looked at the time and directly issued the order for the general attack.
Thirty second-generation Bad Boy armed helicopters with a full force of combat personnel directly attacked the National Guard station. The powerful firepower blinded the soldiers stationed there. They had never experienced war at all, and they were no more than lambs waiting to be slaughtered.
the difference.
Twenty Sky One fighter jets took off from an airport in Malaysia and directly attacked important targets in Singapore. No one knew when the fighter jets arrived in Malaysia. Umbrella paid a price of one million US dollars for this, and the money was handed over to Malaysia.
Government, as airport usage fee.
After the fighter planes bombed, ten Bad Boy armed helicopters directly began to sweep the defensive positions at the dock. The powerful firepower directly destroyed the defensive positions. The ship approached the port under the cover of the submarine, and a large number of Umbrella combatants began to land. In addition to the Umbrellas, the port
All ships will be sunk.
The Umbrella Security Company has been running for so many years, and every plan is detailed down to the team level. Each team has its own tasks, some are responsible for blowing up bridges, some are responsible for blowing up power plants, some are responsible for blowing up communication equipment, etc., very detailed
, after landing, start moving towards their respective goals.
On various roads in Singapore, combatants would kill anyone they saw alive without any mercy at all. Gunfire was heard everywhere. The National Guard of more than 6,000 people was completely disabled by more than 1,000 umbrella combatants.
There is no way to fight back, the two are not on the same level.
Especially the firepower of the umbrella itself is fierce. There is no plan to save ammunition this time. What is wanted is shock and effect. In order to achieve the goal, rockets and incendiary bombs were all used. The National Guard did not
How can anyone who has fought in a war be able to withstand it?
The police station and various branches were also cleaned by combatants. Lan Tao led a team of people to attack the Central Bank of Singapore and exploded the door as soon as they saw it. The explosion continued until the door of the vault was opened. Many people looked at the golden
Jinzhuan's eyes were red. "Bah bang bang," Lan Tao fired several shots into the sky, making everyone around him tremble.
"I'll say it again, you know what will happen to anyone who dares to commit corruption. As long as you are still on the earth, you will definitely die." Lan Tao's ruthless words made many people wake up. The rules of the umbrella are really not a joke to you. Then
It was a bloody killing.
"Start moving records," Lan Tao said directly, and the entire squadron began to get busy. Gold bricks, various gems, various foreign exchanges, bonds, etc., completely emptied the central bank. How many years has Singapore
All savings were completely wiped out.
It can be said that Singapore was extremely miserable at this time. The entire National Guard was beaten and was running around and hiding everywhere. There was no way to fight back. The police station, power plant, water plant, dock, and airport were all bombed.
There was all the sound of gunfire, and residents did not dare to go out at home.
The umbrella ship detained by Singapore was directly bombed and sunk. It didn't hurt at all. It was either not done or it was absolutely necessary. This is the purpose of today's action, so that you will die without any evidence and you must compensate for the loss of the umbrella.
The two thousand people led by Chen Qiwen began to cause chaos and video everywhere, including the Free Army, the Shark Pirate Group, the Elephant Pirate Group, etc., and robbed and videotaped everywhere. Various signs indicate that multiple pirate organizations jointly looted.
Singapore.
This era is not the future, the network transmission is fast, there are high-definition cameras and other things everywhere, but now there are none, there are only video tapes, and there are no VCDs. How can you check? Another thing, the security company has professional mopping up personnel, there are no corpses.
The tail was swept very cleanly, and there was no way to detect it at all.
