Chapter 38: A Worldwide Crisis Triggered by a Competitive Bid
Bai Xiaodu's words caused the councilors on the scene to want to withdraw from the draft resolution just formed, and the draft instruction was to set the location of the silicon star people in Hongxing City, but after hearing Bai Xiaodu's conditions, half of the parliamentarians said that they would reformulate the draft.
Under the leadership of country M, the opponents of this group proposed that the location of the settlement should be re-determined in the form of competitive bidding.
The mayor of Red Star City and the other half of the members did not agree with their conditions and expressed their resolute protest and resolutely upheld the authority of the Baimeng.
There was tension in the meeting over the proposal to set up a place to set up a place for bidding, and there were two days of discussion without a definite plan.
Seeing that no outcome had been discussed, a group of followers representing country M were absent from the meeting and returned to their home countries.
A meeting of the Hundred Alliances broke up unhappily, and the mayor of Red Star City arranged Bai Xiaodu to the high-end residence of Red Star City again, and then gathered some important people to discuss how to prepare for the next thing.
This time, the mayor of Red Star City issued a national order, ordering every mayor to come to this meeting.
In the huge conference hall of Hongxing City, more than 1,000 generals and important officials from various cities were accommodated.
After listening to the opinions of all the personnel within 2 days, the mayor of Hongxing City decided to teach country M a lesson, and together with the countries that support him, he produced cheap products in large quantities to flood the market of country M.
In just one week, the heavy industry market of country M has unprecedented pressure, because after the influx of cheap steel into the market, the original enterprises that produce steel cannot compete with the price and have closed down, and although the heavy industry raw materials produced in Hongxing City are cheap, the quality and quality are guaranteed, crushing 23 enterprises in country M within a week, resulting in large-scale unemployment of workers.
The dignitaries of country M also clearly saw the harm brought about by this competition, so they gathered 60% of the overseas warships to surround the member countries around Hongxing City, constantly causing contradictions in all aspects, and it was full of flavor for a while.
After a month-long contest, with the mediation of country E, country M and the mayor of Hongxing City held an informal negotiation.
The talks are about how the two sides can avoid escalating again. Country M withdrew its warships first, and the mayor of Hongxing City also agreed to raise the price of raw materials for heavy industry to slow down the competitiveness of Country M in the country.
Each other left the venue very satisfied with the negotiation this time.
After the dignitaries of country M returned to their own country, after all the personnel discussed, a general named Chris Sam asked, "Are we missing something in this negotiation?" ”。
The dignitaries suddenly slapped their heads and remembered that it was the location of the location of the Silicon Star people, and they had been busy with these two things for more than a month, and they had forgotten what the cause of this incident was.
The dignitaries of country M applied for a remote video connection with Red Star is mayor in the conference hall.
"Dear Mayor of Red Star City, after we have been discussing, we found that there was still a link missing from the last meeting."
Of course, the mayor of Hongxing City knew in his heart what the important members of country M were talking about, but he still asked with a puzzled face, "We had a very successful last meeting, I don't know what your country is referring to?" ”。
"Dear Mayor of Red Star City, we are referring to the bidding proposal for the establishment of a foothold for the Silicon Star people."
The mayor of Hongxing City coughed and said in a serious tone, "We resolutely support the authority of the content of the draft issued by the 100 allies, and no country can challenge its authority."
After receiving such a reply, the two sides had another embarrassing situation.
After the video call agreement was not negotiated, country M stepped up to discuss how to implement the further plan, and after continuous discussion, the final result was that M decided to impose a trade tax barrier on the part of Hongxing City, and first levied a tax barrier of 3 trillion yuan for heavy industrial raw materials and increased it by 15%.
Just three hours after the formation of the decision of country M, the mayor of Hongxing City also raised trade barriers to the daily products of country M, leviing 500 billion yuan of agricultural products by 20%.
The war to raise trade barriers, formed by the confrontation between the two major military blocs, has led to large-scale unemployment among the members of their respective camps, and not only has the price of imported products increased, but exports have also become a problem under such a struggle.
Apparently both sides have no intention of backing down, and the financial oligarchs of country M have gathered their partner countries to infiltrate the economic markets of Red Star City and his partner countries, constantly manipulating the exchange rate, which first led to the collapse of country W's monetary system, making country W's banknotes like waste paper.
After a month of confrontation between the two major groups, country W was the first to collapse the system, and the paper that used to make breakfast fritters is now replaced by its own currency, because ordinary paper is more expensive than the paper money of country W, country W is unemployed on a large scale, imported things are too expensive, and exports are not competitive, starving, wandering on the streets, jumping off buildings abound, and this situation is still spreading in many countries of the hundred allies, followed by country B, and then country Y, and so on.
Because of this war to raise trade barriers, country M's agricultural exports have been hit very hard, first animal husbandry, and then planting, because the largest import demand for animal husbandry and plantations, Hongxing City, has stopped all cooperation with country M, resulting in the loss of the largest consumer owner of country M, and has to suspend it on a large scale in a short period of time, although the subsidies issued by relevant dignitaries of country M are to no avail.
Large-scale and cheap raw materials for heavy industry have not been replenished in a timely manner, and the production of many sophisticated weapons in country M has come to a standstill.
Under this month's struggle, Red Star City has also seen a decline, the most obvious is prices, before the trade barrier was launched, the average price to wage ratio was 15:3000.
But in just one month, the price-to-wage ratio was 150:3,100. In the past, a month's salary could eat 200 days, but now a month's salary can not even eat 20 days, resulting in many people borrowing money, and huge borrowing expenses occupy the ratio of national income to consumption.
This situation is unbearable in any country, and after a month of trade barrier war, with the promotion of the mediator E, the Red Star City side and the M country side are back on the negotiating table.
The informal meeting of the Multilateral Wide-angle Council in Xiong'an City invited 192 member states to discuss the issue of bidding for the landing of the silicon star people.
But this time, country F did not participate in this meeting, because when the two major military blocs were fighting to the death, they continued to seek benefits from the difference and cultivate their own forces.
So don't look at the fact that the hundred allies are divided into two groups, but country F has developed a lot of its own forces in the past two months of confrontation and has been installed within each member state.
This time, the mayor of Red Star City has made concessions and agreed to the topic of the bidding for the foothold, and the country M side has also made a commitment not to set up a foothold in its own country, and to produce bidding objects in other countries within the member state.
This bidding method was unanimously agreed by the members, and the final foothold was a newly isolated island in the Pacific Ocean, which has an area of 200,000 square kilometers, and the vast majority of countries are involved in the construction and development of surrounding resources.
After the seminar, 70 countries around the world were found to have collapsed because of the collapse of the confrontation system, and the people did not have enough to eat, 20 countries were directly on the verge of collapse, and 4 countries were at war, and 2.5 billion people were affected by the disaster, and 230 million people died of starvation.
Bai Xiaodu couldn't stop laughing when he saw such data in the sun in the exclusive apartment.
But the repercussions are far from stopping, and country F is recruiting troops to expand its power in nearly half of the world's disaster-stricken member countries.
Due to the unexpected consequences caused by his own reasons, the mayor of Hongxing City and the dignitaries of country M reached an agreement in private to provide economic and technical assistance to pacify the affected areas, and the war-torn areas actively intervened to stop the exchange of fire and help them rebuild their homes free of charge.
This force will eventually disrupt the situation and produce a world-scale scuffle, and Mo Yan and Su Cheng's team will soon be in the eyes of the whole world.
After two and a half months of emergency training, Mo Yan and Su Cheng have made good progress from defensive synthesis to synthetic offense, especially Su Cheng, who can already react quickly to form a corresponding armor defense in any situation, even if the bullet hits, it can also form bulletproof glass to protect themselves, Mo Yan and Tang Xiaowu can synthesize the iron plate that rises into the air and then do not need to step on the second iron plate synthesized, but synthesize an iron plate to quickly decompose the iron plate under their feet and synthesize a new iron plate after they ascend to the sky. In this way, it is possible to achieve the maximum movement effect with less oxygen consumption.
Hua Tong has also made full progress, it turned out to be a one-meter monster, she can easily control the graphene scalpel in her hand to fly to a distance of five meters under 2 and a half months of intensive training, and can also form armor to protect herself, such an ability is enough to cause a certain scale of lethality, and she can protect herself very well.
The remaining half a month, as Su Cheng said, is completely about consolidating the practice process.
Tang Xiaowu was still a child after all, and at this time, she couldn't wait to ask Yuan Hua, "General, when can we go out?" I suffocated for more than 2 months."
"Three months is three months, you can't change at all, get familiar with what you've learned with your superiors, don't float, these are the means you can save your lives in the future."
Hearing that Yuan Hua had no intention of giving in, Tang Xiaowu had no choice but to hold his mouth and go back to the team to continue training.
Mo Yan went to the bathroom because he drank unclean water during training, and he complained that Xiao Wu was about to collapse because of his bad stomach, and she replaced the water in her cup with the water in the pond, just because he was disobedient and disobedient, Mo Yan scared her with his own ink turtle and that's it.
Mo Yan flushed the toilet as usual, and put a beautiful stone in the pond into his pocket to give Hua Tong a surprise, but when he suddenly got up, he fell into the toilet, and just wanted to reach out to pick it up, and found that the sinking toilet pump was constantly rotating, and there was a gust of wind in the center, and the hairs on his hands had a tendency to pull down, which made him feel a flash of inspiration in his mind.
It all started by coincidence, and it was under such a coincidence that he discovered an important pattern.
