Chapter 242, Decay

When Qin Yi and the others were drinking fine wine, discussing how to divide the huge cake of private anti-gravity aircraft.

Far away on the other side of the ocean, in Chicago, USA, the headquarters building of Boeing, Pertita silently packed up her things, ready to leave the place where she had worked all her life.

He was proud to be a Boeing man, and when he graduated from college, he joined Boeing as an aerodynamics engineer and worked his way up to Boeing's top management.

He's been here at Boeing for more than three decades, dedicating almost all of his life to this great company, and he once thought he would be able to work here until retirement, because he was only a few years away.

But now, he has been dismissed, and although he has received a large amount of compensation, although he has already earned enough capital for his carefree life in the future, it is still difficult for him to accept being dismissed.

A scapegoat is needed on the company's side!

The Zhuhai Airshow did not receive any money, which also caused the company to suffer a wave of cancellations, and the company also found out that Pertitta sold all the Boeing shares in his hands.

So he became the scapegoat and the one who was sacrificed, and it was a more dignified end to roll up and leave.

Of course, Pertita knew that even if she didn't leave, the company wouldn't be able to operate for too long.

Now Boeing's factories have basically stopped, whether it is the civil aviation market or the military aircraft factory, they have basically stopped working, there are no orders, and the more production, the more losses.

Downtime may be temporary, but it can also be permanent.

At the Zhuhai Air Show, Galaxy Aerospace Industry Group launched the 'Datang' anti-gravity spacecraft for the civil aviation field, its super large transport capacity, the one-time transport capacity of more than 8,000 people, easily Boeing and Airbus into the bottomless dark abyss.

Until now, Boeing has not received any orders, and the original orders for hundreds of aircraft have been canceled one after another, and even many domestic airlines have also canceled orders and turned to the arms of Galaxy Aerospace Industry Group.

Everyone understands that with the 'Datang' anti-gravity spacecraft, and then using traditional aircraft to run the aviation industry, it will definitely face a situation of losing money and going out of business.

So although many times I want to support my own people, I also know that supporting my own people means that the risk of their own bankruptcy is greater, and compared to the life and death of their own enterprises, Boeing's life and death are irrelevant.

After packing up her things, Pertita walked out of her office and looked at the office area outside, which was also very deserted, and everyone had nothing to do.

I still remember that in the old days, it was very busy, with endless orders, endless phone calls, emails, faxes, etc. from all over the world.

But now, everyone has nothing to do, and they don't know what to do, some people play computer games, some people play with their mobile phones, and some people read books.

In the past, Pertitta couldn't tolerate this, and neither did the other management, and the company didn't pay you to have fun.

But now, no one cares about these things, because everyone has nothing to do, and even the management is worried about whether they will be the next batch of layoffs.

Pertita was not in a hurry to leave, he wanted to go around the company, after all, he has worked here for more than 30 years, and he has a great affection for every plant and tree here.

The company is not in a hurry to urge him to leave, this bit of human touch is still there, in fact, Pertita has been working very well, and the performance is remarkable.

Whether he used to be an engineer or slowly became a manager, Pertitta has always been an excellent employee of Boeing, otherwise he would not have become the company's top management, and there are many stock incentives every year.

Pertita smiled at everyone, anyway, retirement is only a few years away, it is considered early retirement, leaving here, he is not ready to look for a job again.

He had earned enough money to enjoy his old age and even live a very prosperous life.

He has even planned his retirement life in the future, ready to buy a private anti-gravity aircraft, travel around the world, and many, many other places he would love to see and walk.

"Damn the Chinese, damn the Galaxy Aerospace Industry Group~"

When he thought of this, he couldn't help but curse in his heart.

Walking around the company's headquarters, it was deserted, miserable and miserable, and the people in the office area were very idle, and some parts of it had simply taken a vacation.

There is nothing to do when the employees come over, so it is better to let everyone go back and see out of sight.

Pulling on her car, Pertita arrived at the airplane factory, which was also deserted, and the engineers and workers had gone home from vacation.

Arriving at the factory, Pertita looked at the frames of huge airplanes, many of which were almost built, but now they were parked coldly.

Pertita still remembers what she saw when she visited the site a few months ago, when the factory was very lively.

There are a large number of engineers and scientists busy next to each plane, everyone is chewing gum, listening to the popular rap, enjoying the joy of work in the best condition, and occasionally complaining that the working hours are too long, and there are not many holidays or something.

Pertitta still remembers when she first joined the company, when he started as an engineer and started working on the Boeing 747.

Thinking of the Boeing 747, Pertita's eyes quickly focused on a large airplane, which was much larger than the other planes next to it, the largest aircraft in the entire factory, and extremely large.

Tears welled up in Pertita's eyes when she came to the plane, which was designed in the late 60s of the last century and was as old as her own.

"Last time in the 60s, Chinese people were still playing with mud~"

Pertita couldn't help but think that he had traveled to China when he was young, or in the 90s of the last century, when China was very poor in his impression.

Not to mention such a lofty industry and field as building airplanes, even making automobiles is far from being good on the Huaxia side, and he has never even regarded the Huaxia people as his potential opponents before.

In the eyes of Boeing people, only European Airbus can barely wrestle with itself, as for what polar bears, embraer, etc., it is barely worth paying attention to.

Chinese people?

Well, the clothes, shoes, etc. they produce are of good quality and cheap, and we are indeed more and more inseparable from the Chinese people in life, but in the field of aircraft, we really have never looked at the Chinese people in our eyes.

But now, it's only been a few years, and it's all coming too quickly and too suddenly.

It's so fast that people feel surprised and feel incredible.

In the blink of an eye, the Chinese people, who once didn't even bother to look at it, have mastered anti-gravity technology, developed rapidly in the aerospace field, and have been able to mine on a large scale on the moon.

From that time on.

Pertita began to be unable to sleep, and he was always worried that the Chinese would enter the field of civil aviation and become Boeing's fierce rival.

"Maybe they never saw us as a competitor~"

I don't know what's going on, but Peltita has such an idea in her head.

How can a spaceship builder look at an airplane builder in his eyes, just as a person who built an airplane before would not look at the Chinese people who made clothes and socks.

"Born in such an era, I don't know whether to be happy or hopeless~"

Pertita couldn't help but reminisce about her life.

He was born in the most glorious era of the United States, and the sixties and seventies of the last time were the most glorious times, when the Americans were the first in the world in all aspects of economy, science and technology, and military, and deservedly the first, landed on the moon, and finally disintegrated the polar bear.

When he was young, the United States was still the most powerful superpower on the planet, dominating the world and beating anyone who didn't like it, which was extremely brilliant.

But in recent years, Pertita has been able to feel its decay very clearly.

Especially since the beginning of this year, with the rapid promotion of the internationalization of Chinese currency in China, coupled with the strong growth and explosion of high-tech and aviation fields, it has formed a huge and incomparable impact.

The purchasing power of American knives has plummeted, and in the past, countries around the world were stockpiling American knives, but now they have begun to reserve Chinese dollars on a large scale and sell the American knives in their hands.

In the past, as the world's currency, the issuance of American knives far exceeded the demand of their own countries, because countries around the world would have a large amount of American knives as foreign exchange.

Now all countries in the world are selling US knives, which has also rapidly exacerbated the depreciation of US knives, and even faintly collapsed, and the status of the world currency of US knives has been greatly shaken.

Uncle Sam's domestic prices are skyrocketing, but there is nothing to be done, the discontent of the ordinary people continues to rise, and various demonstrations continue to erupt in various cities.

Everyone's wages have not been raised, the currency depreciation and soaring prices have had a huge impact on the lives of Americans, and without the American sword to plunder the world's resources and wealth, everyone suddenly finds that they can no longer live the same life as before.

"If this situation does not change, maybe the whole country will decline rapidly like our Boeing~"

Pertita looked at everything in front of her and couldn't help but think of it in her mind.

PS: If the American knife is not the world currency, the life of Lao Mei is definitely not so good~
