Chapter XXVII
But when Kerry was reading the newspaper, he was completely angered by one of the headlines inside, which read:
A BIPU full of lies
The article says that since BIPU decided to land on Mars, it has been running farther and farther in lying.
From the falsification of the landing video to the discovery of the falsification of the Martians, BIPU has gone further and further.
From "monopolizing Mars" to "discovering Martians", this private company has been thinking about how to raise the price of stocks and make more money.
To be realistic, when BIPU decided to land on Mars, they really wanted to make a lot of money by "monopolizing Mars".
Then, get more wealth by auctioning off the Martian land.
Unexpectedly, he made a trip to bite the gold halfway and discovered the Martians, which broke all the original plans.
Obviously, if the Martians are discovered, then Mars is the Martians, and what else is there to say about auctioning off the land of Mars?
BIPU's "exclusive occupation of Mars" was opposed by the whole world, and the farce of auctioning off the land came to an end.
Now, with the death of Confucius Mei, Zheng Riqiang's equivalent of house arrest, and the landing on Mars has a more complicated situation, which has caught BIPU a little off guard.
Did the newspapers say the Martian incident was fake? The video sent back by Zheng Riqiang confirmed the existence of Martians. But this is not the main thing, the key is how to obtain greater economic benefits.
After all, they have already spent billions of dollars on landing on Mars, and excluding advertising and broadcasting fees, they are still losing money.
Nominally, the company's stock has risen, but it has benefited all shareholders.
Kerry is Kerry. Being able to come up with the idea of landing on Mars shows that he is not ordinary.
He put the Martian video that Zheng Riqiang sent back on the company's website and launched the "$9.9 to watch the Martian" campaign.
Who wouldn't want to see the Martians? The campaign was an unprecedented success, with the site's servers shutting down several times due to congestion, and within three days, a total of 27 million people paid to watch the video.
BIPU made nearly $270 million in revenue at once. It is expected that more than 500 million people will end up watching the video, bringing in $5 billion in revenue for the company.
However, after watching the video, people will be skeptical, after all, no one has ever seen an alien, and no one can be sure that what they see is an alien.
The company then sent a message:
BIPU is in talks with Martians about Martian tourism.
Just when people all over the world are talking about whether the Martians are real or fake, BIPU has launched the news of interstellar tourism:
Do you want to land on Mars? Welcome to the people of Mars!
BIPU is in talks with Mars about interstellar tourism, and tickets are on sale.
The price of the ticket is $60 million (including insurance) for a total of 200 seats.
In this way, BIPU can make $12 billion in revenue.
These measures have greatly stimulated the capital market, and BIPU shares have risen day after day, increasing by 216%, which is breathtaking.
As for the Martians not having food and color, Zheng Riqiang thought about it seriously and did not report to the base, after all, he did not eat or drink, had no desires, and lived forever Such an unthinkable thing, he did not see it with his own eyes, so it is not good to talk nonsense.
Therefore, he just reported to the base the discovery of Martians, Martian technology is 3,000 years more advanced than the earth, as for what kind of technology they have, let the earth humans imagine.
However, the interstellar tourism launched by BIPU is not as popular as expected, because of the impact of the crash of the second vehicle to Mars, interstellar tourism has become dangerous.
There is a media outlet that says: BIPU, which launched interstellar tourism, is in big trouble and no one cares.
However, the next day, the direction of public opinion suddenly changed, and there was news in the media that in the next 7 months, the earth was about to be destroyed.
It is said that this is the scientific research result just released by the Astronomical Research Center called "Dex".
The news says that an asteroid with a diameter of 4,700 meters is flying towards the Earth at a speed of 200 kilometers per second, and they will reach the Earth in seven months, when the sky will fall apart, a sea of fire, and life on Earth will cease to exist.
At that time, the earth's more than 8 billion people will be wiped out and will cease to exist.
In fact, the talk about the end of the world has been circulating for a long time. The most famous was the end of the world in 2012, but that day did not come.
And even if, as scientists say, the real "end of the world" predicted by the Mayan calendar is June 21, 2020, due to different calendars, it is also incorrect, and this day has long passed.
Over the years, countless gods and prophets have all "predicted" that the end of the world is coming.
Some say 2015, some say 2016, 2017, 2018, 2019, 2020, until 2026, 2027, 2028, anyway, according to them, every year is the end of the world.
There was an "Indian prodigy" called Abugiya Anand. As early as August 2019, he predicted that by 2020 "the world will have problems." A catastrophe broke out around March 2021.
But at present, this prodigy is all talking!
Others say that 2022, 2023, 2024, and 2025 are all the end of the world. But people are used to hearing it, just like the story of "the wolf is coming", everyone has immunity, and they don't believe it.
Some more sober people pointed the finger at BIPU and suspected that they had planned it.
Saying that they are "afraid that the world will not be chaotic" is just telling a story - this is the most common and practical way in the Z book.
Immigrant!
Migrate to Mars and become the best choice.
BIPU immediately launched a migrant ticket to Mars, which cost $40 million and only had 1,200 tickets.
At this time, people began to panic, there was a lot of discussion, and the price of the ticket began to rise.
Due to the impact of the asteroid hitting Earth, the price of a ticket to Mars has changed from $40 million on the first day to $80 million in one day.
On the third day, it became 500 kilograms of gold each, worth 200 million, and there was no paper money anymore, but it may not be able to be bought. Another day later, the price was 700 kilograms of gold, and the price was $350 million.
Some good people estimate that the price of the ticket will reach $3 billion each, which means that many wealthy people cannot afford it.
Many people say, then wait until you die. People are having fun in time and indulging desperately. Travel and shopping have become the best way for people to burn money.
The relevant departments immediately refuted the rumors, saying that there was no such thing, and imposed a penalty of 1.5 million yuan on the media.
Of course, 1.5 million is nothing for a TV station that earns tens of billions of dollars a year.
On the Internet, some people wrote such as "Doomsday Consumption Guide", "108 Places to Visit Before the End of the World", "250 Foods to Try Before the End", etc., which were also taken down, but the article has been circulated far and wide.
It's no wonder that Mars ticket prices are skyrocketing so fast – there are too many rich people.
The price of a ticket to Mars, from 40 million to 350 million, has risen in just a few days.
As crazy as it is, maybe only Bitcoin.
In 2009, Bitcoin was still $0.10 a piece, in 2011, the price of Bitcoin was $0.30, but in 2018, the price of Bitcoin reached $14,112.20, and in March 2021, the price of Bitcoin reached $60,000!
60000! Dollar!
Of course, even then, it costs 6,000 bitcoins to buy a ticket.
While selling air tickets, the base issued a top-secret order to Zheng Riqiang:
1,200 immigrants to Mars, please consult with the Martians.
Zheng Riqiang felt that he couldn't hide the difficulty, so he called back and said:
Martians have no appetite, live forever, and are more repulsive to human beings on earth, so I work hard.
He had no idea that the base's directives and his determination would turn his fate upside down.
