"What's important enough to interrupt my meeting?"

The president of the Byler Federation stood in the lounge with some unpleasantness, and his chief of staff had just interrupted his conversation with several experts in international affairs, which made him feel that he was an impolite person, and his tone at this time was naturally not pleasant.

The chief of staff smiled bitterly and sighed, "Mr. President, the issue of bonds has been exposed, what should we do next?"

Originally, the president of the Bailer Federation still had some impatience on his face, but when he heard the news, he immediately became nervous.

In the period leading up to the end of the World War, war bonds were a political trick that he considered himself very proud, and through the purchase of war-state bonds, an alternative method of paying protection money, the war did not extend to the Bylor Federation.

And after the war, these bonds were able to realize a lot of wealth, which he considered to be definitely the most shining policy of his political career, and when he promoted this idea, he used the slogan "We do not participate in the war, but enjoy the fruits of the victorious country", which won the hearts of the people.

He has been trying to find a way to solve this problem for some time now, and in fact, he is not under pressure, because the people who are qualified to eat a large number of these bonds are basically banks and some financial institutions that can represent the country's position to a certain extent.

still

These groups are usually silent, but they manipulate the fate of many people and are closely related to people's lives.

His original intention was to find a way to win over some neutral countries to form a rights protection alliance, and then solve the problem of some bonds, according to the anxious mood, and then slowly sort out the rest of the matter.

He and his aides believed that the difficulties would only be temporary, unless the victorious powers wanted to force them into the camp of the vanquished.

I didn't expect it to explode at this time, and when he felt nervous, he was a little annoyed, "Which idiot did it?"

In fact, Mr. President and his cabinet, including his staff team, never thought that those banks and financial institutions would be so shameless in passing on the risk.

They dispersed the bonds to financial companies when they knew that they were not much different from white paper, and through some manipulations, they heated up these foreign bonds, making ordinary people the main victims.

"This damned, greedy wild dog!", Mr. President cursed a few words, and then he solemnly looked at his chief of staff, "You guys should come up with some countermeasures as soon as possible, and also, restrain the media and tell them to shut up, I don't want to be like a fool at a press conference when I don't know how to solve these problems, understand?"

The president will spend millions of dollars and countless invisible interests every year to maintain these staff groups, and now is the time to show their value, the chief of staff nodded solemnly, "I know how to do it, at most twenty-four hours, we can come up with measures!"

Mr. President's expression softened a little, he straightened his collar and tie, turned and walked towards the conference room, "I hope that the next time we meet, you will give me good news as you said!"

Subsequently, phone calls from the president's private office informed almost all the mainstream and non-mainstream media, even the charity magazines and advertisements, and now they are in a race against time.

Even if it can't prevent the sudden outbreak of the situation, it is necessary to negotiate a solution that is actually effective before the big bang comes.

But with some things, it can't be as people want after all.

Mainstream media outlets such as The Deal, The Federal Times, The Daily Byler, and International News Retrieval did heed the request and arrangement of the president's private office to stop publishing and printing the news, but some tabloids did not.

Happy Weekly is one such newspaper, whose name is actually related to the content it publishes, and their mission is to provide assistance to philanthropists who have the money and are willing to help some girls.

There are always people who need help, and there are people who are willing to help others, and there are platforms like this in every state of the federation, and everyone is used to it.

After all, it is illegal in many states to be recruited, but aid is legal, and newspapers naturally receive some intermediary fees, which is one of their main sources of income.

Historically, these philanthropic newspapers have had nothing to do with morality, ethics, or current affairs, because they know very well that even if they publish them, no one will read them.

Instead, readers would call and curse their operators for half an hour, and then tell the newspaper that they would never order their newspaper again if they couldn't see it on the first page of the newspaper the next week, let alone call their phone service.

So no matter what happens in the outside world, such newspapers are indifferent, but today, it's different.

"The vast majority of our clients in our community are actually beneficiaries of financial transactions!"

In the office of the president of the newspaper, the editor-in-chief, the editor-in-chief, and the editor-in-chief all gather here.

The president sat in his chair, took two puffs with a pipe in his mouth, "If there is a financial crisis, our customers will become poor, and we will become poor because our customers have become poor." ”

"Nobody orders newspapers, nobody calls hotlines, nobody gives us agency fees, so we're going to publish this news and remind our customers so they can recover their losses as much as possible!"

At this point, the editor-in-chief couldn't help but interject, "But the president's office asked us not to report the news." ”

The president nodded, "That's true, but so what?"

He looked at the people in the office and said indifferently, "Behind those big newspapers are either conglomerates or politicians, they have to listen to their dog owners, and their dog owners will give them a meat bone, and we only have those customers behind them." ”

"What do we eat and drink without customers, what do those girls eat and drink?"

"When we're about to go bankrupt, do you think Mr. President and the consortia will save us?"

The president shook his head, "No, the only ones who can fill our stomachs are our customers, listen to me, and get the machine running immediately." He paused and said what people wanted to hear, "Even if it really has to be liquidated, this matter will be carried by me alone!"

Soon a supplement to Happy Weekly was released, and it was usually only released when there was a big event, such as some new girl in need of relief, or some adult production company preparing to release some big-budget series.

This also made many subscribers curious, and soon, the additional newspaper sold out in just one night, and sellers from all over the country called to ask for an update.

And this move also brought more newspapers and media to start reporting this news, anyway, they just followed the trend, and only the first one was unlucky.

It was just one night that everyone in the entire federation knew about it.

Banks refuse to cash in their overseas bonds, and overseas issuing countries also refuse to cash in the bonds in people's hands, and the bonds that people have spent tens of thousands of dollars to buy are now like waste paper!

What's even more terrifying is that there are a lot of people like Frank, who have just applied for and put that money into trading bonds as soon as their personal line of credit is issued.

The situation was out of control at once, and as the heart of the storm, Frank and his agent probably didn't realize that instead of a scar, they pierced the major artery.

The next morning, at about nine o'clock, there was a lot of movement outside a single-family mansion, and even sirens sounded.

Frank, who had slept all night in a comfortable sofa, suddenly woke up, the sofa was too comfortable, more comfortable than his bed, and that was the value of money.

He walked to the window with a dull brain and looked out, and suddenly all the sleepiness flew out of his body.

A large number of police gathered outside the house, and armed police and some people who clearly belonged to the army also appeared, and he retracted his head behind the window as he cursed.

Damn the agent, he must have called the police, in fact, when the agent didn't come back last night, Frank already had this feeling, but he was still waiting, waiting for a hope, or the agent calling the police was also one of his plans.

If the broker really can't cash out those bonds, it's going to be a crime scene, and he's seen a lot of TV and movies that have a lot of stuff in it.

When criminals take hostages, they can make demands, such as asking for journalists and media to gather here, so that he can say why he is doing so.

At that time, the whole federation will inevitably be a sensation because of this, and people will be sympathetic to him and side with him, even if he will go to jail in the future, at least his money will be saved.

This idea has to be said to be very constructive, at least it is basically impossible for an ordinary person to gather a large number of media, but it is easy for a criminal to want to do so.

It's just that some things, especially reality, don't necessarily follow the script of the movie.

While Frank was waiting in his bedroom for the negotiator to call, a special ops team had begun to break down the door, and from the very beginning, their purpose was very simple - to kill Frank and shut him up.

The matter has been punctured and irreparable, and Frank's life or death has become irrelevant, but some people always have to breathe, and a dead Frank can obviously meet the needs of some people.

From the beginning of the operation to the sound of gunfire, it probably lasted less than five minutes.

In the end, the captain of the operation team reported the situation to the field commander with a cold face, and he recounted a terrible thing in a regretful tone.

Frank resists stubbornly and is armed with a lethal weapon in an attempt to harm the hostages, and in order to protect the hostages, they have to kill the kidnapper Frank on the spot.

The on-site commander raised his eyebrows, "That's really a pity!"
