Chapter 71 The curtain starts today

Five months gave Zhang Jiangang enough time to prepare and adjust. It was enough.

Therefore, many of the previous deployments and plans only require slight adjustments and do not require large-scale trade-offs, which will greatly save resources.

These plans do not conflict with what will happen in the next five months. On the contrary, they can promote each other. As long as these critical five months can be stronger, Zhang Jiangang will not let go of any detail.

Moreover, humans must not only focus on these five months, let alone give up long-term strategic goals and their own development for the war in five months.

In short, if you hit you, I will hit mine!

A multi-pronged approach, as long as the entire mortal world can rise rapidly in all areas, then do it.

Zhang Jiangang hurriedly contacted the Ministry of Cultivation and China's top management to report the matter, but the specific details were kept confidential and must be kept absolutely confidential!

In particular, it cannot be leaked to let the demons and immortals lurking overseas, including some in China, know that they have mastered the specific time and place, as well as the number and strength of the invaders five months later.

Of course, so is my trump card!

"These immortals and monsters who have already smelled the smell are probably gearing up and too excited to fall asleep, right?" Zhang Jiangang couldn't help but smile when he thought of this.

Zhang Jiangang knows that these immortals and demons lurking in every corner of the earth will never be idle in the next five months. The entrance to the world will open, and the first batch of their kind will come to the human world on the first plane. This means to them

What is self-evident.

We must fight to make them give up!

It just so happened that this incident also uncovered some immortals and demons with evil intentions who were ready to act!

Sure enough, in the next few days, the whole world seemed to suddenly become quiet.

The previously extremely active overseas immortals and monsters suddenly became quiet. They who used to dominate the homepages of overseas media seemed to talk a lot less. They were so quiet that they were even a little scary. Even ordinary people noticed this.

And some things often happen when people are not paying attention.

However, the public may not be in the mood to care about this at the moment, because they are more concerned about their own lives.

During this period of time, the people, including the Chinese people, have been greatly impacted!

And what is closely related to ordinary people is naturally the economy.

Since countries lost control of the sea and oceans and waterways were occupied by awakened ocean monsters, the global economy has suffered a heavy blow! Basically every country's foreign trade, especially trade involving shipping, has suffered a heavy setback.

What's more, at this time, some countries are taking advantage of the situation to make trouble and obstruct other countries' trade.

Massive unemployment and bankruptcies have caused an unprecedented economic crisis.

Even in terms of energy and food, the blockage of sea transportation has also received a catastrophic blow.

Not to mention marine fisheries and aquaculture, they are the first to be affected.

Modern society is a globalized society, and the economy relies on globalization. So it does not mean that the recovery of spiritual energy can be achieved through cultivation. The health level, individual life span and physical fitness have improved, but the heavy setbacks in shipping and even air transportation have once again hit the global economy.

Hit rock bottom!

This is true overseas, and it is similar in China. After all, China's shipping and foreign trade account for a very large part of the economy, and the world is also very dependent on China's goods.

It can be said that if the problems of shipping and marine monsters are not solved, the economies of all countries around the world will definitely go back ten years. If it takes time for the marine monsters to fully grow, it will be even more terrifying!

If these can be revitalized, then the entire globalization will come alive, and the entire earth will be rejuvenated!

Time passed very quickly, three days later, on the third floor of Litian Century Trading Company, a city in southern China.

In the corridor, the candidates waiting for interviews were startled by a quarrel in an office not far away.

There were a dozen candidates sitting on the seats holding resumes. You looked at me and I looked at you, feeling inexplicably nervous and curious.

Litian Century is one of the leading foreign trade companies in Xiping City. But they just seemed to have heard that Litian Company was going to lay off employees and cut off some projects!

What's going on, layoffs? When they heard about layoffs, these applicants were startled and felt inexplicably nervous.

At this moment, another voice came from a department manager's office not far away.

"What do you want me to do! I was scolded by Mr. Zheng just now, and the company's cargo ship in South America was attacked again. If it weren't for the escort fleet, I'm afraid even the people would be gone." The person who spoke should be a middle-level and senior-level person, also a senior official.

Angry in the stomach: "Look at how many of the company's overseas orders have been cut these days. We now almost entirely rely on orders from Southeast Asia to survive!"

"I am also an old employee. After all these years, do you think...if it weren't for the government subsidies, our company would be~"

"Now we are trying our best to keep orders from Southeast Asia and East Asia, and then switch to land trade. The risk of shipping is too great. Don't talk about us, the board of directors just got into a quarrel."

As the voice from the office came out, the applicants in the corridor were so frightened that they did not dare to leave.

Applicant Cui Wei, who will soon have his turn, is so nervous that his palms are sweating. He has applied to no less than ten companies this month, and has been rejected from all of them.

I have developed anxiety attacks during interviews.

Isn't it, Litian Trading is also having a hard time? Cui Wei's heart skipped a beat, feeling that it will be even worse this time!

Sitting on the chair in the corridor, Cui Wei felt extremely anxious and worried about gains and losses.

Cui Wei looked at the two people in front of him and the people behind him. Everyone's expressions were similar. They had obviously heard what the department manager of Litian Company said. Including the one sitting on his right who looked sixty.

An old man of many years.

Uncle, how old are you and you still apply for a job? Can you give us young people some opportunities?

"Litian Trading is one of the top three large groups in the city, why is it like this?" The young man in the second row in front couldn't help but say hello to Cui Wei.

.

"Yeah, I'm really unsure." Cui Wei hurried back, clutching his resume in his hand. Only three people were recruited today, but nearly forty people came for interviews, and it was only during this time period.

.

"I heard that other companies were in a worse situation than Litian Trading. They collapsed a lot during this period." The conversation started, and the candidates next to him also chimed in. Everyone seemed to have found a common topic.

"Me too, the company I interviewed before also saw its revenue drop by more than 60%. They only want elites now, and a lot of ordinary employees have been laid off." A young man from behind also raised his head and said.

"Isn't that right? Now I have no choice but to work part-time secretly. I go to interviews when there are interviews during the day, and drive online taxis when there aren't. When I get home at night, I have to write online novels to supplement my family income." A bit of a panda.

The eyed young man sighed and said.

"I envy you, brother. You still have a car. My mother-in-law has a problem with me not having a car or a house. I have been working part-time at Meituan and Ele.me during this period. I have no choice but to survive first."

Another person sympathized with the situation and said, "It's sad. When I didn't graduate in my senior year last year, I thought the future would be infinitely good. A 211 college student wouldn't starve to death no matter what. But the result, the result, alas, it was all tears! Oh, by the way, I can write novels.

Make money?"

This guy also asked more questions.

"What! Brother, you are from 211. Which university are you from? Write novels to make money? Oh, I advise you not to understand this idea. Nowadays, there are more young people writing novels than reading novels. I have more than ten classmates here

As I write, only five people have made back their Internet fees." Hearing the complaint from the person just now, the applicant on Cui Wei's left raised his head curiously and asked.

"Oh, Western University, not worth mentioning." The man just now felt ashamed, and at the same time a little disappointed, he pointed at the questioner again, "Brother, what school are you from?"

"Ahem, master's degree from Chongqing University. I'm ashamed. I really can't even support my family. I haven't found the money for the milk powder for my children yet." The other party came back with some sighs. "I would have known better not to resign from Yike."

Now I can’t even go back even if I want to, and real estate is no longer available, and we are laying off people on a large scale.”

"Chongqing University? I went there in 1985. Master... master's degree?"

"No, it's so miserable? It's so sad! It's so sad!"

"..." Seeing this scene, Cui Wei smiled bitterly and shook his head. How miserable is this? I am a graduate of Hua University of Science and Technology, which is second only to Qinghe University and Tianjing University, so why don't I still sit with you?

?

I don’t know why, but previous companies still have the patience to train young people, especially young people with high education from prestigious universities. Now let’s just look at experience!

Thinking of this, Cui Wei felt a little disappointed. Not to mention not having a house or a car, what should he do if his wife is going to give birth in five months?

At first, my wife and mother-in-law thought that I was a graduate of a prestigious school, and that I was down-to-earth and stable, and that I didn't need a house or a car, so they entrusted my daughter to them. But until now, I haven't found a job. How can I be worthy of them?

"Young men, don't be discouraged, you will get better gradually." Perhaps seeing that the young people were too depressed, the old man who had been sitting next to Cui Wei and had been silent finally spoke and comforted them.

Everyone looked at the old man who was also a candidate and said, "You put it lightly, sir. I don't know when I will get better." One of the applicants didn't take it seriously, but he didn't dare to be too offended.

"By the way, sir, what's your education level?" the man asked again.

"It's not worth mentioning, it's not worth mentioning. When looking for a job, you can't just look at academic qualifications. Experience, professionalism and character are also very important." The man in suits and ties said quickly, with some modesty or embarrassment. "No matter what it is.

There should be fair competition among schools regardless of their academic qualifications."

"No, uncle, let us take a look. It's not a big deal."

"Yes, yes." Several other young people lining up in the distance also cheered. It is probably because they are usually overwhelmed by the aura of uncles and aunts, but today they finally saw someone of a similar age queuing up like themselves.

The boss of the interview is over, and the boys want to regain their place.

"Ahem, you kids, what do you have to see?"

"Sir, please stop being modest and open our eyes." Although it was not a serious intention, many young applicants still teased him.

Because they know that people in China's age group do not have high academic qualifications. Generally speaking, high school or even junior high school students are pretty good.

Seeing this scene, even Cui Wei couldn't stand it anymore. What's the situation? Are you all so depressed during this period? Why can't you get along with the uncle?

"You guys..." Cui Wei was about to help the uncle to speak, but at this moment, the uncle sighed and took out an old version of a degree certificate that was yellowed and looked obviously older and almost handwritten.

It says Bachelor's Degree in International Trade from Tianjing University!

And that wasn't over yet, he then took out a yellowed master's degree certificate written in English from a well-known Ivy League university.

"Oh, I finally found it at home. I really regret that I didn't study it properly when Teacher Zhang taught longevity boxing. Otherwise, I wouldn't have to go back to my old career. It's really annoying to have to continue working after I finally retired.

"As he spoke, the uncle touched the old yellowed degree certificate nostalgically, as if he was recalling the youth he could never return to.
