Chapter 250 War and Peace
(Note: I reiterate that this chapter, including all content in this book, takes place in a fictional world, and everything is set for creation.)
Birds are still awakening Lear's voice in New York City.
An interesting fact is that the air quality in New York City varies from high to low due to historical development problems, and it varies greatly due to different zoning.
But no matter where it is, the air is above the "fresh air" standard in the cyberpunk world, and the price is not low.
Look at the fresh apples and bananas on the table.
The two worlds have slightly different concepts of poverty and wealth. In Night City, people use high technology, but original things are extremely expensive.
In New York.
The poor can eat grass, and the rich can only enjoy high technology.
The world situation remains volatile.
"Global Observation Report: The ongoing Middle East war, new trends on the front line."
"There are new trends in the Middle East battlefield that is almost at a truce. Due to the large-scale activation of Stark Industrial Production Department, military weapons There is a steady stream of input here."
"But before, the resistance elements have proven that only high-tech weapons can completely destroy their defense lines. Let's hear the local governor's response to this."
"'The Ministry of National Defense has purchased a batch of secret weapons from Cyber Technology, Peak Technology and other companies. We believe that this batch of weapons will help us destroy the will of the Resistance Army.'"
"'They There should be a price paid for the terrorist attacks'
On the TV, Jericho missiles soared into the sky and attack aircraft hovered in the sky.
Some people are hiding behind the main palace, and this behemoth is going to start a war again.
Searching for a mixed bag of news on the Internet with different purposes, Lille was not in a good mood.
As the saying goes, in a war, politicians provide ammunition, the rich provide food, and the poor provide children -
But once the atmosphere is reached, it will start, and when it is about to start, the big Some people will scream and fight until bullets hit them.
There are people who really want to see this war.
For a moment, the scene of a nuclear bomb explosion suddenly flashed through Lille's head. The impact was raging, the flames were rising, and the suffocating high temperature and shock wave were coming
Taota
< br>Footsteps sounded softly on the wooden floor. Maya sat on the sofa next to her with a bowl of fruit and wiped the water on her hands on her apron.
She put down the fruit plate gently, looked at the news on it with concern, and then turned to Lille:
"Are you concerned about international news again? These news seem really worrying. Will you be affected by these things at work?"
Liel did not answer immediately, but lowered his head and poked a piece of apple. : "Don't worry, Mom, these things will be solved."
A trace of imperceptible anxiety flashed in Maya's eyes, and she gently grabbed Lear's hand.
“I know you are smart and capable, and you will solve problems.
But I am your mother. If you are tired, you can always go home and lie down for a while, no matter what happens What, I will always support you.
Just remember that you still have a home to go back to, and I will always be at home.
And this - it brings you good luck and reminds you that you still have me. "
Liel opened his hand. It was a small handmade amulet. The colorful rope was wrapped in some kind of wooden carving. It was not big or small and felt very comfortable.
He raised his head. , looking into Maya's eyes.
My head was in a trance
He forced a smile, so stiff that even a child could tell he was pretending: "Mom, I know."
Perhaps seeing Lille's reluctance, Maya hugged her gently. Hold Lil: "Then I'll prepare dinner first. Now I have time to try some more menus. You will definitely like it."
Looking at Maya returning to the kitchen, the sun shines through the hot water kettle. The heat hit the handmade blanket on the wall.
The disturbing news on the TV seemed to have turned into white noise just to fill the background silence.
Lille stood up: "Mom, I want to go out."
At the Lee Financial Building in New York, Leal and Martin quickly walked into the building, ignoring the media who guarded the door every day.
“Congress is planning to go to war. The intensity this time is far higher than before, but it has not yet been completely decided.
The Ministry of National Defense said that it has purchased some special equipment that can help them deal with local skirmishers. "
While walking, Lille asked: "Do you know what it is?"
"I don't know, the people in our hands are just guarding their own territory. The land is good.”
"That's right - what about the opponent party?"
"Of course they are opposed, but there is some bad news: last month the governor of California made it clear that he opposed the war, and there was a car accident this week." About to enter the office Lear paused in his steps - things were more exaggerated than he thought.
It’s not that things are impossible, but it happens a bit fast and the opponent is quite unscrupulous.
Either there is something wrong with his brain, or he is really powerful.
"Dead?"
"He's still alive, but I don't know how long he can live. I have contacted his secretary and he will be transferred to our hospital immediately."
Two The person walked into the office quickly.
The rather unpretentious means of political struggle are enough to show how rampant the opponents are.
Sitting on the chair, Martin immediately projected the current state on the wall.
The president and Congress are largely on the same page.
But members of Congress collect votes from voters in each state to enter Congress, so the situation in the state has a great impact on their political careers.
In 23 of the 50 states, the governors and legislators are from the current ruling party and clearly support the war, while 14 states are completely opposite.
The remaining 13 states are not completely unified. The governors and senators are not from the same party, and the various institutions in the states are also very divided.
Swing parties can gain their support by exerting more influence, and these influences and means will ultimately improve the living standards of voters in the state.
But that is a long-term option, and the top priority is to curb the opponent's arrogant momentum.
For example, this time, the assassination of the governor of California is a very bad signal. No matter how the people make trouble, as long as this matter is not resolved, no matter who sits in this position, he will have to worry about his life.
This is the top priority.
"Do you know how serious it is?" Lear knocked on the table.
“It’s very serious. It’s said that I can only breathe. If we can’t cure it, it’s impossible for anyone to cure it.”
"Send it here and see how it goes. What else is there?"
"Military industry stocks are still rising. Many cities are reaping this wave of dividends. The media is broadcasting the smiling faces of those voters every day.
It feels like anyone you pick from the street is a hard-core American soldier - 'Make America Great Again'!
I really want to see them being sent to the battlefield. ”
This is the second question.
Foreign wars can certainly satisfy some companies' thirst for resources, but in order to deceive the public, they have to make up some credible reasons or create some favorable illusions.
For example now: a steady stream of military industry orders.
A large amount of investment was transferred to the military industry, and then flowed to other parts of society through complex social transaction processes.
Once money flows, society will show a prosperous scene.
Prosperity only requires the flow of money, but how it flows determines the shape of social development.
Lille must find a way to boost the economy in the field of peaceful production, so that more people will agree with his ideas -
Otherwise, there will be no food to eat, and there will be no peace.
Lille put a briefcase on the table.
"It doesn't matter, our moment will come soon. The new chip design and complete production methods are here. Contact the foundry."
"About this." Martinton After a moment, "The previous cooperative factory was acquired. It was a hostile takeover. The process is more complicated, but there is no need to think about cooperation.
The acquirer is Cyber Technology, which is also the special purchaser of the Ministry of Defense.
I have looked for foundries that may still meet the requirements - but the result is that no one is willing to cooperate. ”
Lille paused as he opened the briefcase -
The greed and fanaticism of his opponents are beyond imagination.
