Zhou Yu's theory of war and the theory of the fascist threat had been mentioned in front of Roosevelt before, but to be honest, the latter did not believe too much that war would occur under the premise that the economy was booming and various inventions were emerging one after another to improve people's daily life patterns. And it is a world war that will drag almost all the countries of the world into it.

Hearing Zhou Yu's speculation, Alan Lockheed, who is mainly engaged in arms manufacturers, hurriedly responded: "Yes, I can testify to this matter, the arms orders from Europe have skyrocketed in the past six months, and almost 70% of them were purchased by the man named Adolf Hitler, it is not difficult to imagine how much his ambition has swelled." ”

"Yes, not only that, but it doesn't seem to be a good sign that he has formed an alliance with Mussolini to promote fascism and has more and more support in his own country."

Zhou Yu's father-in-law, media tycoon McCarthy, also agrees with him.

Roosevelt nodded and said seriously: "I will continue to pay attention to the European side, but our meeting today is mainly to solve the most important problem at the moment, Bruce, I can consider the proposal you mentioned, but the premise is that you can come up with a way to deal with this situation, so that I can have a bottom in my heart, after all, the current federal government is already in danger, and if we don't find a way to stop our country, it will be dangerous!" ”

Hearing that Roosevelt had agreed to his proposal, Zhou Yu calmed down, stood up and said: "First of all, I want everyone to know what caused today's Great Depression, and only when we know the cause and where the lesion is, can we prescribe the right medicine." ”

He stepped out of his seat, onto a blackboard at the front of the conference room, and wrote a line in chalk.

"I think that the fundamental cause of today's situation is the contradiction of the federal system, that is, the contradiction between the socialization of production and the private appropriation of production, which, to put it bluntly, is caused by the overproduction of the whole society, which is embodied in the excessive gap between the rich and the poor, excessive stock speculation, the flood of installment payments and bank credit, and finally the bursting of the bubble.

With the collapse of the federal government's credit, the crisis soon spread to Europe and even other continents, and the root cause of this is the lack of regulation and control of our credit rules, which has created a false boom of overconsumption and inflated markets, which has also accelerated the contradiction between production and sales.

Stocks, I think is also the next step to focus on a place, many people, especially the middle class, they are reluctant to invest in industry, only want to rely on stock speculation, stocks themselves can not reflect the actual situation of the economy, which can easily cause a false prosperity in numbers, thus covering up the real contradictions below. ”

Zhou Yu paused a little when he said this, so that everyone could fully digest the nouns and terms he said.

After everyone thoughtfully turned their eyes back to him, Zhou Yu began to say another line on the blackboard: "In the context of this serious financial crisis, Franklin's birth is both an advantage and a weakness.

The advantage is that the credibility of the Hoover administration has fallen to an all-time low, and the New York state you have run in the past few years has been a unique state, leading the economic direction of the entire federal government, and has a high reputation, so you will have a better chance of winning.

But the disadvantage is that once you defeat Hoover and sit in the presidency, you will face this mess full of holes, if you do a good job, the people of the Union will remember you for the rest of your life, if you don't do well, they will only treat you as a rag that you will throw away when you run out, and they will not look at you, and even step on a few more feet. ”

The chalk in Zhou Yu's hand snapped and moved on the blackboard, and the word "New Deal" was emphatically marked under the entry of the solution.

"That's right, in response to this serious financial crisis, we can only rely on the New Deal, revitalize the economic program, and solve the remaining problems, we must rely on a series of New Deals, the core of which I can summarize in six words, relief, rejuvenation, reform."

Zhou Yu wrote six more words on the blackboard, and Roosevelt actually took out his notebook and began to take notes, his attitude was very similar to a student listening to a teacher's lecture at school, very serious.

"The most fundamental problem in solving the federal government's economic crisis is to solve the oversupply of goods caused by overproductivity, the inability of companies to pay loans, and the difficulty of people to pay personal credit because of income problems, and a series of core problems here are related to banks."

Zhou Yu said here and turned his attention to Carl Morgan and said: "Carl, you need your full cooperation in this regard, I'm afraid you will rarely have time to spend the weekend with your family easily in the coming days, this is a war, a war without gunpowder but can kill people invisibly, only by winning this battle, we can be invincible in the next real war!" ”

Carl Morgan nodded seriously, waiting for Zhou Yu's next words.

"I have roughly summarized the measures of the New Deal, first, to rectify the financial markets, to make all the banks rectify, to gradually restore their credit credit, to abandon the gold standard, to devalue the dollar to stimulate export business, we can use Karl to unite several of the strongest banks, encourage the people to deposit their money in the banks, and promise in the name of the president that the government will compensate them for all their losses if the banks fail.

As long as there is a commitment from the government, the people will be willing to put the money back into the bank, and with the money we can make a big difference, the bank can continue to lend to the enterprise, the enterprise can recruit workers again with the loan, and the workers will continue to deposit the money they have earned when they have a job, so that our society can enter a virtuous circle. ”

Zhou Yu wrote the second article again.

"Second, in order to prevent the bank-centered industrial chain from collapsing again, we need to find a few leading companies, limit their mass production, and set a uniform product price and determine labor wages."

Bang bang, the chalk is like a butterfly flying in Zhou Yu's hands, those letters are written beautifully and quickly, just as calligraphy to appreciate is pleasing to the eye, not to mention that the content he writes is likely to determine the future trend of the country.

"Third, adjust the way of government subsidies for agriculture, requiring farmers to reduce production, prevent overproduction products from entering the market, and hit prices, so as to ensure that it remains at a healthy price level.

Fourth, in lieu of credit, we need to vigorously build public works and hire a large number of unemployed people to invest in these projects, which will provide a large number of employment opportunities and alleviate the growing dissatisfaction of the people with the government, and employment is equivalent to stimulating consumption, and the people often want less than we think.

Fifth, to establish a sound social security system, we need an extremely detailed social security law, which will include how workers receive pensions, how the unemployed can receive insurance benefits, and young children, pregnant mothers, and the disabled must receive certain benefits.

In addition, we must establish an emergency relief agency as soon as possible, so that in the face of the same type of large-scale disaster, it can respond quickly and distribute relief funds to the people, so that although there is no cure for the root cause, it is also a good choice to treat the symptoms. ”

"Papapapa~"

Zhou Yu's writing speed is getting faster and faster, and when he writes the last word, he habitually pauses a little, but due to too much strength, the chalk is broken into two.

But there seems to be some kind of magic in the whole process of writing, just as when Roosevelt gave a speech on stage, the emotions of the audience below would rise and fall and applaud.

You must know that the people sitting in this office are the top beings of all classes, and there is also a favorable candidate for the next presidential competition, it is definitely not a simple thing to bring these people to the blood boiling, but Zhou Yu has achieved this effect with only five solutions.

Roosevelt recorded several New Deal measures on the blackboard one by one, and then let out a long breath and said: "Bruce, what a lucky thing I am to be able to make you a friend of yours and make you a part of my staff~ I even think you are more suitable than me to be the president of the federal government of the New World!" ”
