441 Chaos (B)
Corali's action was obviously unexpected by the rich people in the United States. It was beyond everyone's expectations. After all, in the eyes of most people, this is obviously not a move that a qualified politician or a president would make.
But this woman did it without hesitation, and it seemed that her purpose had been achieved.
Now the entire United States has become a mess, and the attack on Wang Zhengyu's plane is no longer hot news, on the contrary, various protests have become the mainstream of society. There are protests against the betrayal of national interests by those behind the scenes, and point out that it is these rich people who inject capital into the Tianshu Group that led to the rise of China and the relative loss of the United States.
There were also protests against the disgraceful role played by the Tianshu Group in this matter, and some people even began to protest that the rise of China had made the people of the United States lose their former glory. In short, Corali's speech this time has become a fuse that can go down in history, and the dissatisfaction accumulated by the people of the United States in recent years has exploded at one time.
Of course, there are those who are afraid that the world will not be chaotic, take advantage of the opportunity of protests and demonstrations everywhere, and use people's anger to incite and provoke all kinds of instigation, so that the entire social order of the United States begins to develop in an uncontrollable direction......
In the major cities of the states, the ordinary police have completely unable to control the situation, in this case, no one is willing to send troops at this time, the president, as the nominal commander of the three armed forces of the United States, has the power to send troops, but Congress has the money bag of the army, and all kinds of military expenditures must be approved by Congress before they can be allocated. The Secretary of Defense is on Corally's side in view of this incident, but the majority of the Joint Chiefs of Staff of the United States will certainly not support the president.
Who would dare to send troops in such a situation? If the army is also in chaos, who will be safe?
And so everything started to fall apart. Although all the city's security forces, including firefighting forces, have been mobilized to stabilize order, how can the emotions of the country be stirred up so easily and quelled? All kinds of riots began to spread around the largest cities in the United States.
Places like the White House, the Capitol, and the Pentagon are doing better because they are guarded by a large number of armed forces. But the bustling business districts and places like Wall Street are in shambles because there aren't enough police. Although the commercial areas in the real world are many times more depressed than the commercial areas of the past, the products sold are also very different from those used to be. But the wounds left behind by this confusion are the same.
The most serious losses are naturally Tianshu Group's industries in various parts of the country. Cities in the United States belonged to the Tianshu Group, and the stores were the first to be smashed by the angry crowd. Fortunately, long before the start of the first wave of protests, Tianshu Group, which had been silent, urgently closed all its stores, and the staff quickly evacuated, so that there were no casualties.
However, it was not only the Tianshu Group that was attacked in the various riots, and often the stores on the entire street suffered unjustifiable disasters. As time went on, the situation became more and more chaotic. Many governments have begun to urgently appeal to all citizens in the second world not to leave their hotels and rooms, and to put pressure on the governments of the United States to regulate their own national behavior. It's just that now the government of the United States itself is in a mess, and a group of people are still fighting lawsuits over whether to immediately dispatch the army, who can take care of this?
At this time, the Tianshu Group, which suffered the heaviest losses due to the various commotions caused by the demonstration, still did not make its voice heard. The usual silence remained.
……
"Holy! How did it come to this? Huo Guangbo sat on the sofa in the control room, looked at the virtual image synchronized back by Pangu through the satellite, and sighed.
It had been four hours since Corrali finished her speech, and it was also the time when the riots in the United States were at their worst, and the neighborhoods where the procession passed were full of chaos. The United States' police force was already clearly in a vulnerable position at this time. Although water cannons and tear gas were used to try to disperse the crowds at many important locations, there were too many demonstrators.
These measures, apart from making the crowd more chaotic, did not completely stop the whole commotion. On the contrary, there were many trampling accidents, and it is clear from the virtual video that many people were trampled by the crowd in the commotion. I think that after this riot, the major hospitals in the United States will be busy again.
"Wouldn't it be like this when all the discontent of the people erupted at the same time? Which financial crisis in the United States did not happen to such a thing? It's just that this time the people of the United States did not dare to move the army casually, and the emergence of the second world made it too peaceful in reality for too long. It has been the reduction of police forces that has made this riot feel even more destructive! ”
Wang Zhengyu sat next to Huo Guangbo. Calmly analyze the current situation in the United States.
"I didn't want to go down the lower route before, just to avoid this kind of thing, too much hatred. After all, once we stop the technical support for nuclear fusion power generation and the second world network, it is absolutely impossible for the United States to restore the power supply in a short time. There is no way to rebuild the network, and if that happens, the crowd will take to the streets in protest. There will be confusion as well. But what I didn't expect was that the female president was really decisive enough! I really dare to make this move. took the initiative to expand and intensify social contradictions, and I wanted to see how she planned to end up in the end! ”
"It would affect us if she did that, right?" Huo Guangbo turned his head to look at Wang Zhengyu and asked.
"The impact is naturally there! But we have nothing to fear! Why are you really afraid of a global boycott of our products? That's better! Anyway, we have too much money to run out! Wang Zhengyu sneered.
"Well, that's not going to happen, but that's really how we see them going on? In fact, our losses in this commotion are not small! So many directly-operated stores were smashed, and the goods inside were probably robbed, and if this development continues, it is estimated that our branch building will also be damaged! Huo Guangbo looked a little worried.
"As long as they still need our products, am I afraid of loss? Wait for the riots to subside, let the staff count the losses, and then report it tenfold! Let's see who dares to deny this account when the time comes! Wang Zhengyu said coldly.
"Actually, we have a way to stop this commotion!" Huo Guangbo suggested.
"When the time comes, there will always be a time when people are tired, and we will talk about it when they are almost in trouble!" Wang Zhengyu was unmoved.
Huo Guangbo was silent for a moment, in his opinion, after Wang Zhengyu came back from another dimension, the whole person seemed to become more indifferent and decisive. If Wang Zhengyu looked at these images in front of him before he went to the alien planet, he would definitely have a lot of emotion, and even unbearable emotions, how could he sit firmly on the Diaoyutai like now, and still think about magnifying the loss tenfold afterwards?
"It's too messy, it's not good after all! After all, things started because of us, as you said before, it may cause dissatisfaction in many countries and affect their attitude towards us, maybe we should do something. Huo Guangbo still couldn't hold back.
Wang Zhengyu shook his head slightly, "First of all, this is the internal affairs of Mi, and it is inconvenient to access until our losses reach a certain level; Secondly, since these people took to the streets to protest, it shows that they are very dissatisfied with the Tianshu Group, and even feel that the assassination presided over by their president is just, so why should we care about their lives and deaths? ”
"What you mean is that the current group's losses are not big enough!" Huo Guangbo raised his forehead.
"That's right, the intelligent robot sales centers in our major cities haven't been smashed yet, I'm still waiting! Hmph, let's see when they can smash it up! Wang Zhengyu sneered.
"I'm rubbing! You're really not big enough! If you really smash it! I guess the army is definitely going to be dispatched! Huo Guangbo only felt a cold sweat.
Now there is a reason why Tianshu Group's intelligent robot sales centers in major cities have not been smashed. These sales centers are generally located in the political center of the city, in other words, the city now has the largest police force and is also the most heavily defended. If these protesters have captured this kind of place and the army has not moved, then it is possible for those officials in the United States to be caught in the door panel by the brain.
"I'm just waiting for them to send their army! Who exactly is the victim this time? Are they only allowed to demonstrate, and we are not allowed to protest a little! Wang Zhengyu said coldly, but listening to his words, he had obviously already made a plan.
"Why don't you think it's too big of a problem?" Huo Guangbo looked at Wang Zhengyu with a little surprise.
"The president of the United States himself is not a big deal, why should I think it is a big deal?" Wang Zhengyu replied expressionlessly.
From Wang Zhengyu's expression, Huo Guangbo could see that his brother was really angry this time, and he didn't bother to say anything at the moment, and once again put his eyes on the video that was transmitted back simultaneously. At this time, the most violent city is only one block away from the intelligent robot sales center of Tianshu Group, and he doesn't know what will happen after that.
However, Huo Guangbo knows very well that this time the female president of the United States will definitely not be pleased. He really hasn't seen Wang Zhengyu like today, which even makes him secretly sympathize with the female president who was born at the wrong time, as the former president of Tianshu Group and Wang Zhengyu's most trusted person, he is the person who knows the real strength of Tianshu Group the most in addition to Wang Zhengyu, and he naturally understands how much damage can be caused to a city or even a country if Wang Zhengyu is really ruthless.
However, what Huo Guangbo didn't know was that at this time, Corali was already difficult to ride a tiger in the face of this situation! (To be continued......)
