Chapter 471: God Bless America
Mr. Senna was in his office at the time of the accident.
He knew that Su Mu was also on Wall Street, and that someone had seen Su Mu's car on the side of the street, not far from the place where the explosion occurred, so he called him to inquire about the situation.
Many people are asking, the entire South Tower of the World Trade Center has collapsed, the Empire State Building has also collapsed in half, and the jet fuel poured down, causing the Empire State Building to burst into flames!
After Su Mu was safe, he sent text messages to those who called, replying one by one.
After taking a shower in a temporarily rented room, I learned that the White House had also been attacked, a four-star general had died, the Pentagon was missing, there were many dead and wounded, and President Bill Clinton was safe, which was good news.
I don't care about thinking about tomorrow's listing, when I encounter such a serious thing, it is certain that the market will be closed for a few days, maybe it will fall sharply after the opening, and today's events will hit investors' confidence in the United States, the country's aircraft have been suspended, and the stock price of airlines has fallen sharply.
After asking Secretary Suvassi to bring his laptop, Su Mu, like many young people today, began to write a paragraph on Bee's homepage:
"I was in New York, after leaving the company on Wall Street, about to go to a party in the south building of the Dead Trade Tower, and I saw the plane crashing into the building in a helicopter, and the south building had just collapsed under my gaze, which was a disaster! May my friends be safe, God bless the United States......"
After clicking send, he began to browse the Internet for news about today's attack, which is now airing fairly fast because of the online network.
Firefly Online News Network, in particular, has a unique algorithm that puts the most popular news to the backstage staff for review, and if it feels worthy of being seen by people, it will be displayed on the homepage.
If the person who publishes the news is unwilling, they can contact the staff to remove the news, but there are not many people who choose to do so, and they publish things on the Internet, the starting point is to let more people see it, where they will be willing to miss the good opportunity to promote it for free.
Now the homepage of the news website has been swiped, all about the hot news about tonight's attack, some people don't believe that such a thing will happen in the United States, blaming the police, blaming the FBI, blaming the CIA, and the number of comments under one news item has exceeded 200,000, and the number of views is as high as more than 6 million!
The popularity of this news website can be imagined, many families in the western United States have been sleeping, otherwise the number of visitors should be more, there are many companies that have been successfully run by Su Mu, even if he learned some news in advance, it is his ability to operate as he is now.
Now, Su Mu, the world's richest man worth more than $100 billion, stays in an ordinary hotel room and browses the online news, trying to figure out the cause of the incident, which is so sudden that he still doesn't understand what happened.
Suvassi helped him make a cup of black tea, and when he came in, he said: "Boss, there is only this ordinary black tea, I don't know if it suits your taste, there are a few police cars outside, and they will protect your safety." ”
"No, we have so many bodyguards, let these people do what they have to do.
It's better to go to New York to help, I think the city should be in a mess by now, and maybe the attackers haven't been caught. ”
Su Mu was not picky, and continued to look at the computer screen after saying thank you.
Judging by the timeline of the unrest in various places, it must have been a premeditated attack, yes, all started at 7:30 p.m. Eastern time, and more than 100 people died in the Atlanta venue, less than 30 people actually died because of the explosion, and the rest died because of the stampede.
If you just look at these news, you don't know that you think that the United States is in a war, and when you return to the Bee homepage, Su Mu was surprised to find that the number of retweets has exceeded 50,000, and the number of comments has reached tens of thousands.
Seeing that many people were concerned about this matter, he described his own experience as a description of what he had seen, using many adjectives such as "terrible" and "terrible".
It wasn't until after one o'clock in the evening New York time that Su Mu learned that the situation had not further expanded, and he fell asleep......
The listing plan was delayed, the Nasdaq stock exchange will be suspended for four days to avoid falling into a panic decline, and several other major exchanges have implemented the same plan, and Su Mu has no reason to stay in New York, but he stayed.
Chairman Bernard Madoff didn't know that he had inadvertently saved Su Mu's life, and suggested by phone that he further delay the listing, and wait until a month or two later, when it returns to normal, before going public, otherwise the first day of breaking is a high probability event.
Since Pearl Harbor was attacked by the Chinese army during World War II, the United States has not suffered such a bad attack for more than half a century.
The search and rescue work is still ongoing, there are not many injured people on the side of the World Trade Center, and it is difficult to survive if the layers are pressed down, and it is difficult to survive the south building, and the north building is only slightly tilted, and it is difficult to say whether it can be saved.
Su Mu already knew the news that Mr. Sean was still alive, his ribs were broken, and he almost stabbed his lungs, probably when he was in the building, he ran for his life, but he didn't feel the pain, and he didn't notice it until he got out of the building, and many reporters came to interview him, the lucky one.
Four days later, the search and rescue plan was still ongoing, and President Clinton, who had always been known for his good temper, actually signed the order to mobilize troops this time, and most of this was fueled by oil and arms dealers, the Pacific Fleet was moving, and war was about to break out.
Because of this attack, more than 1,900 people were killed, and the number of injured was about three times that number, and the economic losses were innumerable.
As he expected, the airline stock fell miserably, which is a good opportunity to make a fortune, but unfortunately Su Mu does not have much liquidity now, and it is not worth being scolded by the people for that little "small profit", and several TV stations contacted him to tell the story of the day, but he refused.
The Pentagon and the White House jointly released the results of an investigation, and the spearhead directly based on the organization, in their words, will never spare the attackers, and those caught will be sentenced to death.
He had little to do with Su Mu, so he flew back to Silicon Valley to reunite with his family, and decided to give the employees who died in the company a pension of $500,000 each......
