Chapter 1189: The Bubble Has Finally Burst

In the summer, a news reporter reported that the former mouse Superman drove this big ship to Africa with dozens of sons and daughters, and rescued several French journalists in the desert, and then lost his news. Unexpectedly, he actually drove a boat to be a treasure hunter, and this exploration also unearthed such a big treasure. If you don't say that he is a rat superman, you can hate him, you can despise him, you can drive him away, but you can't be unconvinced, he is amazing, what kind of success, 400 million US dollars! This Nima must be regarded as the biggest treasure discovery of this century, right?

Just when all Americans remembered this unruly and self-righteous young rich man and drooled over the gold coins and bars, the matter suddenly took a 180-degree turn. The Spanish government also held a press conference on March 7 to announce that the salvage from Hornreg Salvage was owned by the Spanish government. The two shipwrecks were two of the golden fleets that returned to Spain from South America in 1702, and this fleet belonged to the Spanish royal family at that time, so this treasure is not ownerless, its owners are the Spanish royal family and the current Spanish government, they are the legitimate heirs!

The next day the Hornreig Salvage Company held a press conference at the Waldorf Astoria Hotel, reaffirming the legality of the salvage and refuting the Spanish government's arguments, claiming that the two ships belonged to a Mexican merchant group called Povalier, and were not part of the Spanish royal family or the Spanish government's fleet. Since these are two merchant ships, according to the provisions of the International Maritime Salvage Law, this batch of property belongs to the items without clear heirs, who will salvage them. Whoever owns it. As a result, Hornreg Salvage could only return 15 per cent of the amount to the Spanish government in accordance with the terms of the International Maritime Salvage Act. The remaining 85% is owned by Hung Craig, and there is no need to negotiate.

The reason why Jim is so hard. It's because the Puyol brothers have a very, very crucial piece of evidence in their hands, which is the basic parchment. The parchment was a logbook, which recorded the voyage of the two merchant ships for nearly half a year, and clearly mentioned the ownership of the merchant ships and the fate of the golden fleet. With these written records, not only can we win and lose the lawsuit with the Spanish government, but it will also be very helpful to continue to find the whereabouts of the remaining ships of the Golden Fleet in the next stage.

On March 9, the Spanish government came out again, reiterating its previous arguments and announcing that it would sue Hornreig. A team of Spanish government lawyers has submitted relevant materials to the Florida State Legislature.

This word is probably the common emotion in the hearts of all those who pay attention to this matter. Three days ago, it was a treasure of 400 million US dollars, but in the blink of an eye, it became a defendant, and if this lawsuit is lost, then the Horn Craig salvage company will have to return most of its finances to the Spanish government. However, as far as the name of Chonghong Craig Salvage Company is concerned, everyone is still not very optimistic about the Spanish government. There is no need to guess who this Hong Zier is, he has assets that rival the wealth of the country, and almost all the well-known lawyers in the United States have business dealings with him, and they have litied against him in the American courts, unless there is an anti-heaven organization like the Jewish consortium to come forward. Otherwise, the Spanish government will not be pleased.

Before this international transnational lawsuit started, a TV station had already invited various experts and relevant personnel of Hung Craig Salvage Company to start a program, analyzing the possible direction of this lawsuit to the audience. For a while, the ratings of such programs have been climbing, and everyone wants to know who this huge wealth belongs to. Everyone wants to know why Hong Mouse has not shown up so far? Could it be that he coaxed it? Shouldn't it!

Before the flood rat appeared, an even bigger disaster had unwittingly shrouded the sky over the world, and it had just passed the thousand-year insect crisis. The U.S. stock market is in a boom. Since the beginning of last year, these Internet stocks have been like stimulants. Rolling up, the people who held these stocks at the beginning were all happy. People who don't own it are still looking forward to which Internet company to buy this year, so that their wealth can be doubled, and then they will change to a good car, and then pay off the loan for the house, and enter the middle class in an instant.

The biggest harvest is the Jewish consortium that invested in Crystal Orchid Capital, in just over half a year, the less than $20 billion they paid to Hong Tao has doubled, thinking of Hong Tao's bitter melon face, they can wake up with a smile when they sleep.

Unfortunately, this dream was a bit short-lived, and on March 10, when everyone was still discussing whether Hong Mouse could keep the $400 million gold and silver treasure, the Nasdaq index suddenly began to fall without warning. This has never been done in the past 5 or 6 years, so most people don't take it seriously, and a large number of experts and scholars have also jumped out, telling everyone with a lot of professional terms they don't understand, don't panic, resist, the light is ahead!

The problem is that at that time, everyone was willing to be the second fool, and not only ordinary stockholders, but even those big institutions and large conglomerates kept throwing money into the stock market, trying to pull back the downward trend, and it was in their interests to rise. Unfortunately, all efforts were in vain, the downward trend was swift and unstoppable, and hundreds of millions of dollars of assets evaporated from the stock market every day. By April, dozens of Internet companies had declared their closures, and thousands of employees and related personnel had lost their jobs.

This downward storm is not only in the United States, has spread to the world, as long as the stocks of Internet-related companies, as if they were said in advance, they jump down with each other, and it is a bit to see who falls faster, even large companies such as Yahoo, Microsoft, Cisco, and Intel are inevitably vulgar. AOL, which had just merged with Warner, was even more miserable, and Time Warner, who had only appeared for 2 months, jumped down with his head, which made the shareholders feel a shock.

Things in the world have always been like this, when you are strong, everyone holds you and gives you whatever you want. Once you go downhill, immediately big bricks will fly over, falling into the well is the norm, and the one who does not fall into the well is the outlier. In just one week, the Nasdaq fell from 5,050 to 4,580.

At this time, not only the Americans understand, but also the people of the whole world understand that the stock market crash has begun! Once it enters this mode, it will not only be a stock market crash in a certain industry sector, but the collapse of Internet stocks will soon affect the traditional financial system, because all the money that has been thrown into the furnace of Internet companies over the years to ignite is the money of investment institutions and banks, and companies can go bankrupt and banks can go bankrupt. So no matter what stocks you have in your hand, hurry up and throw them away, even with traditional industries are not immune, it's just the difference between who dies first and who dies later.

Huge amounts of money evaporate out of thin air in the stock market, what should I do? Companies with deposits in their pockets are beginning to tighten their belts, like bears in winter, ready to enter the hibernation period, starving and still alive. Companies that originally made a fortune, or had no business at all, and purely relied on hype concepts, did not even have the qualifications to starve, and they were the first to fall.

From Internet companies to venture capital companies to Wall Street, the word is everywhere. This is a warning from God to the people of the earth at the beginning of the new century. After receiving this warning, people who have been hit hard by the stock market dare not spend money, or have no money to spend at all, and people who have not been hurt by the stock market have also tightened their wallets, even if you spit lotus flowers, he will not easily invest in you, who knows when you will go bankrupt!

No one dares to spend money, and the economy will inevitably contract, and the more it shrinks, the more depressed it becomes, and the more depressed it is, the more it will shrink, and this will become a vicious circle. When the pain in everyone's body is reduced, and the government has introduced an economic stimulus policy, when will everyone be able to heal the scars and forget the pain, and open their wallets to start spending money. How long is this stage? Economists all over the world sit together and study for a month without eating or drinking, and they don't understand as well as the guy lying in the big red mud pit at the top of the pyramid, who is teaching Ah Shan how to put mud on his hair.

Ah Shan couldn't sit still at the beginning of April, almost a phone call a day, asking Hong Tao what to do with the shares of Crystal Orchid Capital, seeing that it was shrinking sharply every day, almost a day was missing a sports car, even if Hong Tao comforted her repeatedly, she still ran over in person, asking Hong Tao to give her a final answer, what to do!

"Look, I'm not a god, who knew that things would be like this! But you have to think about the good thing, if according to the current situation, those guys forced me to sell my shares at the beginning, they were basically saving me, Lei Feng did not know? Bethune knew? Hey, by the way, they were Lei Feng and Bethune, who were not self-interested and exclusively benefited others! This time it is not the collapse of one or two companies, and it is not just the United States and one country that is in a famine, the whole world is the same, what can you do for me? Now, even if I am made Secretary-General of the United Nations, I will not change anything. Peace of mind here for a few days, I will make you a lobster to eat every day, this mud is good for the skin, nothing to bubble more, this is I used a plane to pull back from Africa. Hong Shan don't care about him, he is much more solid than you, there are so many crew members on the island to play with him, and our old husband and wife haven't been together for several years, this time it's a honeymoon, come, let me help you wipe your back!" These days, not only Ah Yi called to ask, but also Han Yan in Europe, Han Xue in Asia, Tan Jing in Canada, and Wang Yonghong in the United States have also called, and they have all been unlucky, but because Hong Tao has adjusted the share of stocks and the company in advance, it is not particularly serious in this falling storm.
