Chapter 271: Subprime Mortgage Crisis

Like every person who has achieved great strength and supremacy through intellect and hard work, Doctor Doom is confident in his own brain, he believes in his criminal brilliance, and in the infallibility of his schemes. Pen, fun, and www.biquge.info

He learned a high degree of magic with his resourcefulness, assembled an armor similar to Iron Man, seized power in Latvinia, and shaped this small Eastern European country into a world-class power, becoming the center of gravity of Europe's financial technology, and an existence that can compete with the five permanent members of the United Nations.

Of course, because of this arrogant self-confidence, Dr. Doom defies the rules and trusts no one, and the villains he gathers, the rhetoric he instigates, and even the ultimate rebellion he hatches are just bait for the superheroes to direct their attention to where Dr. Doom wants them to see.

In the private forest of Latvia, in a castle far from the watch, there is a four-legged square wooden table.

On the wooden table, there is a chess deck, on which the battle is fierce, black and white chess pieces are intertwined, biting and killing each other, but there is only one person in the room: Victor von Doom (Dr. Doom)!

He was still covered in heavy armor of bright silver, and his somewhat old green robes, and the only eyes he could see were gloomy into the distance—I forgot to mention that the table was next to the floor-to-ceiling window, and the wooden chair on which Doom was sitting was facing the window.

He didn't look at the chessboard, but his hands moved, sometimes black, sometimes white, sometimes a horse, sometimes a pawn, and sometimes a ......

In this silent room, only the crisp sound of the collision between the jade chess pieces and the wooden chessboard was continuous, without a single pause, and each chess piece moved strictly according to the rules, to the most accurate grid, and the entire chessboard was clearly recorded in Doom's mind, without a trace of error.

It was tea time, and it was time for Doom to rest, and he could play chess with himself while thinking carefully about his plans, which, though dull and boring, were his favorite entertainment.

“Checkmate! (General)" The deep voice was hoarse and terrifying, and with this self-talk, the black chariot and the king completed the casting, and together with the soldiers who had reached the bottom and became the rear soldier, the white king was about to die.

In this reflection, Doom did not find his own loopholes, and his plan was perfect, because in this final plan, there was no conspiracy, only conspiracy, and he did not have a fight, only to fuel the fire again and again.

In fact, the relationship between humans and Transformers is far from being as strong as they imagined, and all contradictions only need one reason to break out into a new war.

"Finance is such a good thing!" Muttering to himself, Doom pinched the White King as he gently rubbed the warm chess pieces made of white jade, but he couldn't feel anything because of the steel.

So, Doom willfully crumpled the White King into pieces—he still had a lot of them, and these precious gems were still just a pastime.

This time, Doctor Doom is going to carry out an economic shock to the world, he wants to plunge the whole world into a terrible financial storm, and in this way, he will trigger the most fundamental contradiction between humans and Transformers - resources!

In the previous global war of aggression, the earth's economy lost a total of nearly two trillion US dollars, and almost everyone's household appliances became Transformers, but because the threat of war disappeared, the establishment of the World Parliament, the confirmation of friendly relations between humans and Transformers, the low interest rate policies implemented by countries around the world, the world stability created by the Hero Association, and the growing demand of people, these six reasons have caused the rapid development of the economy.

That's right, sometimes things just get that weird! Although the economic losses in the war were very serious, because of the expansion of demand, the economy was in a state of rapid development, especially in the steel, energy and high-tech industries, the global stock prices of these industries are rising wildly.

Not only have the stocks of individual companies far exceeded their own value, but in order to recover the economy as quickly as possible, at the suggestion of Latvia, countries have also coincidentally relaxed the regulation of financial markets, and many companies have begun to issue new shares and raise large funds.

In addition, banks have also begun to issue a large number of subprime financial loans, to those who do not have creditworthiness, the ability to repay is not clear, of course, the repayment rate is floating, and these people will use the borrowed money to participate in the stock market carnival, and make a lot of money from it, there are also many people see the opportunity, play financial leverage, to take a piece of the market that is constantly taking off.

Under this global carnival of economic overheating, of course, inflation will inevitably occur, but in fact, as long as the strong demand is not extinguished, as long as people are willing to believe that they have exhausted their hard work, willing to believe that the entire economy is about to take off, and all stock markets will continue to grow, this economic bubble can blow bigger and bigger, and never burst.

In fact, although the stock prices of various companies are far exceeding their actual value due to the problem of production capacity, because of the huge demand, the bubble is far from bursting.

Unfortunately, bubbles are bubbles after all!

Dr. Doom is the real leader of Latvia, and Latvia is now a world power and the financial center of Europe, so when Dom makes up his mind, this bubble will definitely burst, he will sell a lot of stocks of major companies with huge funds, and then raise the national interest rate, so that the subprime lenders will not be able to repay their debts, and finally, the banks will have to recycle the financial assets of the lenders, and once again lose money due to the collapse of the stock market, the capital chain will break, and have to go bankrupt!

At this time, as long as it provokes the panic of human beings about the Transformers and further suppresses the demand for electrical appliances, it can form a storm and cool the global market, and the subsequent deflation will constitute stagflation - that is, a state of terror in which no one spends money, no one invests, and things cannot be sold.

In this state, the contradiction between the poor and the rich, the contradiction of the unequal distribution of resources, will be very profoundly highlighted, and nature, between humans and Transformers, is no exception.

Don't you see that the root cause of World War II was the worldwide economic crisis from 1929 to 1933 [the Great Depression]?

When the world is in turmoil, it's time for Wang Che to transpose and Dr. Doom to appear!

Doom stood up, his teatime was over, but just as he turned around, a cold mechanical female voice suddenly sounded:

"Sir, someone has trespassed on your private property."

"Bring up the picture, Pandora!" Dr. Doom commanded, with a blank face.

The next moment, a holographic projection appeared in front of Doom.

The images are constantly changing, but they all lock on a guy dressed in red and carrying two long knives on his back, slowly walking through the forest.

The ugly face under the mask frowned......

That's Deadpool, a dangerous guy!
