Throughout history, wars have tended to cause economic depressions, but not necessarily all industries are worried about war, at least special industries that benefit from chaos and insecurity are happy to see war, or rather, wars.

When the Chinese side showed a tough stance, various versions of the rumors circulated internationally through the highly developed self-media channels, and even the official media of some small countries put the "news news" from the self-media on live television, if there was no promotion from various interest groups, I am afraid that no one would believe it.

Among them, the most hard-working rumors are the arms dealers of various countries and several construction companies of the US Commonwealth - the arms dealers understand very well, they make their fortune from the war, and naturally go to great lengths to create conflicts, and they are tired of doing so, but how can there be construction companies involved?

The reason is simple, these federal construction companies are all construction companies specializing in the construction of military-grade underground bunkers, and after the mutant problem became more and more prominent, their order volume soared with the level of public worry. Bunkers and Atlas Survival Bunkers in California are the most prominent, with more orders received in half a month than in the past fifteen years combined.

Not every rich person is willing to give up their human identity to become mutants and survive in the form of mutants, not only anti-mutants, but also neutrals who take a wait-and-see attitude and decide everything with profit. After all, anyone with a little brain can see that sooner or later there will be a full-scale decisive battle between humans and mutants, and at present, it seems that mutants do not have an advantage, and besides, it is easier for the rich and powerful to transform into mutants than civilians, so they prefer to keep the choice first - because it is impossible to become a human again if they are transformed into mutants, and they can transform into mutants at any time if they remain human.

These apprehensive tycoons take their personal safety very seriously, everyone knows how dirty and bloody the methods of war can be, and once a war starts, the governments of various countries may not drop nuclear bombs on cities, and the Temple mutants may not kill people and eat people or forcibly convert innocent people. Therefore, the wealthy people from all over the world rushed to send orders to the most professional survival construction companies, demanding that they build explosion-proof, radiation-proof, and intrusion-proof underground bunkers, safe rooms, and shelters as soon as possible.

This can make some construction company CEOs spin off, considering that the last time they saw such a spectacle was during the Cold War. Decades later, the world is finally in the shadow of nuclear weapons, and that's wonderful!

The Miami Herald and Bloomberg Businessweek both reported on a quote from the deputy director of the National Center for Disaster Emergency Response at Columbia University's Earth Institute: "It looks like some individuals and organizations have made significant investments in the industry, and there is no doubt that some investors have made considerable bets that this is a market that will continue to grow – given the many unbelievable events that have taken place around the world in the past year, The demand for safe housing is rising rapidly among some affluent households, so I personally believe that this is a market with a lot of potential. ”

"A market with potential, huh." Ron Hubbard, the CEO of Atlas Survival Bunker, threw Bloomberg Businessweek on the table, and even a blind person could see the prospects of the business without the need for experts to pretend to analyze.

As an industry pioneer and visionary entrepreneur, he is not averse to Business Week's opening up of this business opportunity, attracting more gold diggers into the burgeoning industry of underground bunker construction. After all, the cake is so big, Atlas can't eat it all, not to mention that the more people come, the bigger the cake will be. Moreover, more people entering the industry not only means that there will be more competitors, but also that more money will be injected into this otherwise depressed sunset industry to make it vibrant again.

The rise of every industry is inevitably accompanied by bloody and chaotic battles, and the question for Atlas is not how to hide business opportunities and make a fortune, but how to win the position of the industry leader in this fierce battle.

"Chekov's law cannot be broken after all." Ron Hubbard sighed with emotion, and was about to open the good wine on the glass counter behind him, when he heard a knock on the door.

"Please come in."

A middle-aged woman with a very friendly appearance walked in and respectfully placed a folder on the table.

"Oh, it's ironic that the number of orders for luxury bunkers with large deposits is greater than the number of small and medium-sized orders combined, and that these rich people would rather squander their money on saunas, swimming pools, hot tubs, and even bowling alleys and movie theaters for their shelters than to build more cheap bunkers for civilians to take refuge in. So, in the spirit of humanitarianism, our company should pay more attention to small and medium-sized underground bunkers, and as long as the current situation continues, more and more middle-class families will be willing to tighten their belts and build a small shelter that costs tens of thousands or hundreds of thousands of dollars......" Ron Hubbard said, seemingly nonchalantly flipping through folders, but he soon discovered a key problem.

"Why are there so few orders from Huaxia?" Ron Hubbard frowned deeply, the rapid rise of Huaxia in recent years has made most businessmen realize that in the non-monopoly high-tech industry, whoever can master the Huaxia market can have a huge voice in the industry, so Atlas and its competitor Rising have already set up a Huaxia branch and smashed a lot of dollars in the past, so that several concept advertising companies in Huaxia have made a lot of money.

Even if the investment is huge, Ron Hubbard believes that there will soon be orders that will fly like snowflakes, so that he can quickly return the profits, because those uninformed yellow guys are stupid and have a lot of money, and they like to follow the trend, and the only thing they need to worry about is that there are too many orders to be completed on time - this is not a problem, just outsource to other small companies or even local companies in China to do it, everyone operates like this, and there has never been a problem.

But it backfired, and the orders from Huaxia were pitiful!

The middle-aged woman who submitted the report gritted her teeth and replied: "At present, it seems that we have overlooked a strong competitor from China, please take a look at the last page." ”

Ron Hubbard flipped the last page in annoyance and glanced at it a few times, then angrily scolded, "Zhan Yuan? A security company that has just been registered and operated...... Security company! Why grab an order with us! ”

"They ......," the middle-aged woman stopped talking, and finally decided to tell the truth, "because they are like other Chinese manufacturing industries, they are of high quality and low price, and they are extremely efficient." In terms of engineering, they have a close relationship with Lifan Group, the largest real estate developer in Jiangbei Province, China, in terms of personnel, they not only have professionals, but also can mobilize superpowers for construction and construction, and even can mobilize superpowers to serve their customers...... In fact, Zhanyuan has not only stolen orders from Huaxia, but also from Southeast Asia, Central Asia and Australia, and if we can't come up with an effective response strategy, Atlas and Rising will soon no longer be competitors. ”

Ron Hubbard jerked to his feet, looking like he was about to scold, but his face froze for a moment, then he sat down and waved weakly for his subordinate to leave his office.

After closing the door, Ron Hubbard opened the glass wine cabinet, poured himself a glass of old wine, held the glass and looked out the window, his eyes were gloomy and his expression was complicated, he had long thought that one day those yellow guys would rise again, but he thought that it would be at least ten years later, who would have thought that day would come so quickly.
