Chapter Eighty-Three: Complete Collapse!
April 4,
On the day that Hero announced bankruptcy, companies that had trade contracts with Hero near Houston sent people to the Smith Building to demand that Hero compensate for the sky-high liquidated damages on the contract.
"I'm sorry, after the bankruptcy of the Hero Company, all assets have been seized by the state government, and the Smith Building is not the assets of the Hero Company, and it has nothing to do with the Hero Company here."
"Nonsense! Isn't the headquarters of Hero Corporation the Smith Building? ”
"Yes, the headquarters of the Hero Company was indeed the Smith Building before, but the Smith Building has always been owned by the Heroine Company, and the Hero Company rented the Smith Building of the Heroine Company as its headquarters, not the Smith Mansion owned by the Hero Company."
“???”
All the people who came to collect the debt were caught by the "security guards", and none of the debt collectors were able to enter the Smith Building.
Hero had transferred all of its physical assets before it went bankrupt, and Tom used the rest of the entire Hero Company as collateral to borrow money from Texas State Bank.
After Hero Corporation declared bankruptcy, the State Bank became the largest debt collector and has begun to liquidate Hero Corporation assets.
And all the physical factories, railways, highways, schools, etc., of all the physical subsidiaries of the Hero Company, were sold by Tom to Tom's newly established Heroine Company at a "sky-high price" of $1 to $5 before taking out a loan.
All that Hero is left is a lot of bad debts, and the biggest creditor of this big pile of bad debts is the Texas State Bank, and the State Bank's Hero shares have long been sold to the state government.
Turning it over and over again, the really valuable part of the hero company has all been reskinned and become a heroine company, and the so-called reputation, reputation, product added value, brand benefits, etc., have all been abandoned by Tom.
After the bankruptcy announcement, Milia also gave Tom a small picture album.
The catalogue is a collection of "concubine candidates" that Millia has carefully selected for Tom over the past few months.
This is a small gift specially prepared by Milia to celebrate the economic crisis for Tom, Tom liked this gift very much, and carefully looked through it for an afternoon, looking at each woman's family background, figure, whether it is suitable for childbirth and so on.
In order to celebrate the bankruptcy of Hero Inc. and the world economic crisis, Tom specially ordered three women and asked Milia to check their bodies and train their minds before bringing them to themselves.
April 11,
A week after Hero Inc. declared bankruptcy, Heroine Inc. continued to operate normally after taking over all the physical properties of Hero Inc., and Texas seemed to have no fluctuations.
The world out there is a different story.
The Texas state government was very helpful, and the Texas State Bank repaid all the debt collectors with the sky-high amount of compensation on the contract.
When signing the contract, in order to ensure that you can buy a large number of low-priced hero goods, the liquidated damages of the contract are very high.
In this way, billions of "hero dollars" poured into the American market in an instant.
Coupled with the previous "money-loss" operation of the hero company, there are already tens of billions of "hero dollars" in the American market
These banknotes, which have no real value, do nothing but serve as a catalyst for the destruction of the economy.
Last year's "Yankee dollar" block pile turned into a "hero dollar" block pile, and the US currency market collapsed again.
The "Hero Dollar", which is not supported by a large number of products of the Hero Company, after the bankruptcy of the Hero Company, is even less powerful than the original "Yankee Dollar", and the "Yankee Dollar" is still dozens of banks that insist on recognizing the value of the "Yankee Dollar" on the surface, but do not accept the "Yankee Dollar" over the counter.
And the "hero dollar" is directly from the publisher to the supplier.
Not only the United States, but also Europeans, in order to restore the economy, also sold a large number of agricultural products at high prices and bought Hero Company products at low prices to stimulate consumption, etc., in order to facilitate trade, they also hoarded a lot of "hero dollars" in their hands.
Now on the bright side, the hero company has an "accidental" explosion that leads to a temporary suspension of production, and the suspension of production pays a lot of money according to the contract, and finally the "reasonable" bankruptcy makes the Europeans fall into the quagmire in an instant.
What the world thought was an opportunity for the "economic upturn" - the purchase of agricultural products by the hero company became a "flashback" of the world economic crisis under Tom's operation.
This time, the world fell even harder.
The overnight collapse was even more terrifying than the collapse of the "Yankee dollar" that led to the collapse of "Scarlet Monday".
The crisis without warning, just came.
In this economic crisis, Tom is bound to destroy all existing economic systems in the world.
So why did Tom specifically tell the Vanderbilt family, isn't it good to let the Vanderbilt family go bankrupt directly?
Not good.
Tom needs the Yankees to have a stable giant railroad company that will continue to help the heroine company sell merchandise after the economic crisis is over.
Transportation is the service industry, the "lubricant" of the physical industry, and now the Hero Railway has not yet been built, and Vanderbilt's railway company cannot fall.
After the economic crisis improves, Tom will continue to "cooperate" with Vanderbilt.
A stable railroad giant is better suited to work with a giant enterprise like Heroine Company than dozens of small railroad companies.
What's more, Vanderbilt has a large number of railways as physical support, but he is not a financial investor without any physical industry.
It is a bit of a fool's dream to rely on this kind of financial game to trap a physical giant enterprise with an industry monopoly advantage.
This time Tom "plays" the whole world, will the Yankees still suffer a dumb loss like the "dollar war"?
No, it won't.
The last economic crisis was an accident caused by "normal" business competition, so to speak, and the Yankees themselves were partly responsible for the economic crisis by overissuing dollars.
This time it was Tom's single-handedly "flower work", and Yankey couldn't bear it anymore.
Isn't this a clear display of treating people all over the world as fools?
"Aren't fools human?"
"Didn't the fool be raised by his parents?"
"Do fools deserve to be teased by your Tom?"
The Yankee consortium has begun to hold talks with many parties to come up with a solution to the heroine company in the shortest possible time.
