Chapter 878: Iron-Blooded Means, National Interests

What should I do? This is really a question that has no second answer. It is true that some www.biquge.info of the so-called big people who control most of the country's economy and resources are important, but compared to hundreds of millions of ordinary people, they are not as important as they think. Especially, when everything they have at their disposal has been lost.

The core of this country is still boiled after all. And the dish boil also means that most of the time the country is controlled by the upper classes. But at many critical times, those ordinary people at the bottom are the masters of the country. For example, now, whether to protect the interests of a few or to protect the interests of the vast majority of ordinary people is a question that Tony does not need to consider.

"Jarvis, control the direction of the bank's money. No one is allowed to mobilize large-scale funds under any name. The stock market stops trading first. Also, in my name, contact the companies of the bankrupt guys and tell the management of those companies that if you don't want to be put in jail, you will keep the company sembracing the semblance of stability. I don't want to see any company say it's bankrupt and then need to fire its employees. Stability is key at this time, and on this issue, I authorize you to use smart machines. ”

"Your Excellency, what about those who are bankrupt?"

Hearing Tony's statement, an assistant beside him couldn't help but break out in a cold sweat on his head. There are few who can hold assistant positions in the White House that are not connected to those big conglomerates. Now that the situation has taken a turn for the worse, they naturally can't help but panic in their hearts.

Tony naturally knew the careful thinking of these people who ate inside and outside, and in this regard, he just suddenly pulled a disdainful sneer on his face, and then patted him on the shoulder and said to him.

"If you want, I think I can leave the task of pacifying them to you. But you have to think clearly, they don't have that much political donations to give you right now. ”

This sentence made his assistant can't help but shrink his neck. They don't have the courage to live and die with losers.

The so-called politicians are a group of the most realistic people. When they can bring you benefits, they will stop at nothing to help you, even in a way that breaks the law. If you not only can't bring them any benefits, but also cause them trouble, they will definitely let you know the majesty of the law and the fairness and toughness of law enforcement.

Funds, stocks and real estate are the foundation for those big people in the past to sustain their lives and call for wind and rain in the world. And now, when two of those three come to naught, they lose more than two-thirds of their net worth. It's all, and even more.

They have become outright bankrupts, losers. And for the losers, no politician will give them his cheap sympathy.

So the assistant thought about it for a moment and said to Tony flatteringly.

"Your Excellency, leave the matter to me. They also have a lot of real estate in their hands. If they are allowed to do so, it is likely to have an even greater impact on the already fragile financial markets. I think I can stop that, and if you give me some permission, I can guarantee that most of this real estate will be taken over by the state. ”

It sounds cold and cold, but it's the smartest thing to do right now. And for this smart choice, Tony will naturally give a certain amount of encouragement.

"Very well, since you said so, I'll leave this matter to you. I'll get the FBI to fully cooperate with you, but you have to promise me two things. First, don't make too many casualties, they can kill themselves, but I don't want to see them take a whole bunch of people to their deaths. Second, I don't want the media to talk nonsense about this, this is a special time, and you have to let these media know what can be said and what can't be said. ”

This demand is difficult, and for the United States, which has always believed in freedom of speech, it is simply an act of rebellion. But the assistant's face showed only a slight look of embarrassment, and then he nodded vigorously.

"Leave it to me, Your Excellency. I promise you won't be disappointed! ”

He swore by it because he knew very well what that meant. If he succeeds, then it is entirely safe to say that he will be a single member of the new government team, and it is very likely that he will even succeed a top position in the future and become a key figure in the Stark government. This is an opportunity to climb to the top of the ladder and he certainly won't miss it.

And for his assistant's guarantee, Tony is also very relieved. This is a capable person, otherwise he would not be able to stand out among so many assistants and become his right and left hand in his daily work. As long as he does it seriously, with the assistance of the FBI, he can handle things well. So he doesn't need to worry too much about this at all.

He was now concerned with something else. For example, the panic that may occur from the masses.

The panic of the masses stemmed from the instability of the stock market, which he had stopped by temporarily suspending stock trading. All that remains is to reassure the people, and then the situation will not go in a worse direction. Of course, the mess in the stock market is certain, and the depreciation of a large number of stocks will inevitably cause certain losses, but it is believed that Ultron's move to disperse funds should relieve some of the pressure on the masses.

This is the only point in Ultron's impulsive actions that makes Tony happy. He ransacked the entire stock market, turning countless stocks into liquid money, and letting this liquid money wash some people's pockets. But instead of letting the funds evaporate, he let them go into the pockets of thousands of households. The main body of finance is still there, but the holder has temporarily changed, and this provides a lot of room for operation. Space to mitigate the financial crisis.

As long as the state intervenes strongly, and there are no outsiders to make trouble. Then the situation will not become out of control. Now that the state has begun to intervene, half an hour is enough time to control the stability of the market between anyone reacting. And the interference of outsiders?

Thinking of this, Tony couldn't help frowning, and then commanded some of his other assistants.

"Tell the White House spokesperson to inform the nation and blame the people in Hydra for the problem. Let's just say that they have a new computer virus that has attacked our financial markets. Also, warn some people not to give them a chance to take advantage of the fire. Also, let me know the leaders that I need to talk to them about something! As soon as possible! ”

Blaming the enemy is a political imperative and a good way to avoid risks. After all, it was a group of anti-human organizations that everyone shouted and fought, but there was nothing to be done. Splashing dirty water on them is not only a matter of course, but they also have no way to argue with it. And, most importantly, the masses will believe it. Although the U.S. government has always been known for its untrustworthiness among its people, the Stark government has a rare amount of credibility.

Of course, this leads to a problem. That is, if this is said, those former financial tycoons who have gone bankrupt will definitely find a way to get everything back for themselves. And for this idea, Tony has only one meaning, and that is daydreaming.

You know, their money is flowing into the pockets of countless people. And when it comes to their own interests, don't expect the people to be too sensible. Offending a group of people for the sake of one person is really a stupid thing to do. And more importantly, they deserve it.

Ultron looted the financial tycoons behind the funds on Wall Street, who had no real estate, just a myriad of stocks, funds, and literally huge wealth. As they themselves say, wealth always comes with risk. And now is the time for them to be at risk. This can be regarded as their reparation for the small shareholders who were once played with to death.

In addition, some large enterprises and large conglomerates in the real industry have been purged. However, the impact is not great, because the individual who is washed clean, not the collective. In a large industry like this, even if you want to go bankrupt, it will not be so easy. As long as the government can control it, there should be no problem in maintaining stability.

Of course, this is just an optimistic idea. Tony knows very well that no matter how well he does, all this will eventually have a huge impact on the current financial market. The scale of this is definitely not under the financial crisis that occurred before World War II. It's just funny that the financial crisis at that time hurt the majority of ordinary people and some small and medium-sized entrepreneurs. But the current financial crisis has forced the descendants of those who once poured milk into the river to jump off buildings.

A dog has his day! Tony can only evaluate it with this Chinese proverb. At the same time, he was inevitably thinking about some other things. For example, the reason why Ultron did this.

He had to admit that Ultron actually had benefits in doing so. If he doesn't stop Ultron, then Ultron can completely clean up most of the private groups that control the lifeblood of the country's economy. Don't doubt his ability, he can definitely do it to this extent unless the Internet is completely abolished.

And once those who control 99 percent of the country's resources are eliminated and the resources in their hands flow into the market, then the development of the entire country will be unprecedentedly enhanced. It is even said that they have truly achieved the freedom and equality of cooking that they advertise.

But that's just a thought, and Tony knows very well that it's an impractical thing to do. Now, for example, just a single stroke of the knife against this behemoth almost caused an invisible earthquake to occur in the entire country. If this is the case, then the whole of America will probably cease to exist until everything is improved. It's something that is absolutely not allowed, and it's something Tony can't accept. At the end of the day, he still didn't have the courage and determination of Ultron.

The determination of an intelligent life, which is simply a catastrophic existence. Thinking of this, Tony began to hesitate. He really didn't know how to deal with Ultron now! (To be continued.) )
