Chapter 466 Adding insult to injury-new technology
Because Neon has already resisted two waves of zombie crises, a wave of capital hunting, and Umbrella's job-breaking and beautiful sanctions, and it is still lingering.
Therefore, after South Korea suffered a zombie incident that was far less serious than Neon, although it was relatively a big event, the adaptability of people around the world has also been greatly enhanced.
It is far less impactful than when the zombies first came out.
Many people don't think what will happen to South Korea. Just like the earthquake disaster in some other countries, they won't pay much attention to it after a day or two of broadcasts about the support provided by various countries.
The situation during the New York Invasion and Neon's second wave was much more serious, and there wasn't much coverage of the subsequent rebuilding efforts.
Even due to the global spread caused by Neon's second biochemical crisis, small-scale cases have occurred in many places. For this kind of disease threat that needs to be transmitted through blood and is so obvious after infection, the ability to accept it is actually quite strong.
You will feel fear only if you have not experienced it, but it is actually like this after you have experienced it a lot.
Zombies?
That's it?
As long as it doesn't happen around you, it's fine.
Because Umbrella took action in South Korea and handled the situation well, I really didn't think this would bring much trouble to the country.
It's far less serious than Neon and Pretty. Not to mention Big Pretty's invasion of New York and the Resident Evil that was second only to Neon. Even Tokyo couldn't compare to it for the first time. At most, it was better than Seoul National University. That time it was a little more serious.
You have already resisted, you should be experienced...
However, the reality is far beyond everyone’s expectations!
The follow-up handling and disaster relief in South Korea are actually going quite smoothly. Neon and Big Beauty have not yet solved their respective problems, but South Korea is already in a state of confusion.
But then, before the big beauty even started asking for compensation, thunderstorms broke out in many places in South Korea.
Because of this crisis and the compensation threatened by the Great Beauty, a small number of people lacked confidence in the future and took action, becoming the first domino to lever South Korea's high leverage.
The next moment, the "all-rental house" sounds like a big thunder that makes people's scalp explode, and it detonates in series.
Not to mention that even Neon, a big country, did not dare to play such tricks at the beginning, but South Korea has piled the leverage so high and continues to this day.
Just like their financial speculator who speculated on concept stocks in big beautiful stocks with high leverage, and finally caused the big beautiful stock market crash due to forced liquidation of positions, the rest was a series of explosions.
Everyone has formed a consensus and expectation!
Those landlords who rent their entire property, who continue to rely on the next tenant's deposit to continue the cycle, soon find that the originally sweet full-rental property no longer tastes good.
A debt ratio of 150% is enough to destroy all resistance, and almost no one can bear it.
A financial crisis swept across South Korea in an instant.
After the storm starts, it will only cause greater panic, and greater panic will continue to accelerate!
A complete chain reaction, a downward spiral.
Originally, banks in South Korea not only loaned money to landlords in South Korea, but also loaned money to tenants because the houses were fully rented, so they gained double happiness in one fell swoop.
But now how happy I was before, how bitter the consequences are now.
What can be expected is that this will be a disaster even more terrifying than the financial crisis in South Korea last century.
First of all, the landlord's funds are broken and he is unable to repay the tenant's deposit. The tenant's deposit was borrowed by himself and cannot repay the bank debt. The bank is unable to recover the housing payment from the landlord and the deposit from the tenant. Payment, double the pain.
Originally, if it was just like this, it would be fine. South Korea could only imitate neon and start printing money directly, and the authorities would continue to borrow money from themselves. After the flood, although it was a bit painful and the losses were huge, they could still survive at least.
But the sad thing is that South Korea is not the only place in the world.
Originally, when there was a scandal in their previous term, there were actually financial giants watching their every move.
Big Beauty was also suffering after being affected by Neon zombies for the second time and after being invaded by New York. Now they are working hard to stabilize their own finances and have taken various measures.
I originally thought that there might be an opportunity to take advantage of the scandal involving South Korea's talker, so I naturally made some preparations to keep an eye on it.
Then he announced that he would visit Umbrella, which raised this attention to a higher level.
What we saw next was Resident Evil, a total collapse.
Although the speed of the collapse caught these experienced predators off guard, since they had already paid attention in advance and started tentative preparations, now that they had the opportunity, they pounced on the thunderstorm inside without any hesitation. South Korea, bite hard.
South Korea has little domestic demand, almost no ability to resist risks, and is strongly tied to the international market.
In the face of this kind of fighting, there is simply no way to fight back, and the original financial crisis will be repeated directly.
No, it should be even more terrifying than the original financial crisis!
Because the people of South Korea discovered that the four-star conglomerates were originally thinking of actively rescuing the market. Although they failed in the end and lost, they still took action.
But this time...
Adding insult to injury!
Attack from inside and outside, double happiness!
All the bulk resources are in the hands of the chaebols. In the original parallel world, Awen also asked the chaebols for help in the future.
But this time, after looking at it and realizing that it was definitely hopeless, what those chaebols chose was to protect their own interests and try their best to take advantage of the geographical advantages to get a share of the chaos!
At the very least, we must protect ourselves and reduce losses in this storm.
They have already been funded by Wall Street, and their first goal is to protect themselves.
Lu Xun once said that the bigger the storm, the more expensive the fish.
Now under the indifferent management of the chaebols, the first problem to arise is food.
Prices of various foods and food raw materials have skyrocketed.
Once this kind of consensus and momentum emerges, there will inevitably be a panic buying and running frenzy, which will further worsen and aggravate the seriousness of the situation.
Food prices change three times a day!
At this time, the South Korean people also realized that humans themselves are actually much scarier than zombies!
Crowds of queues immediately began to appear at the Han River Bridge. The real trapeze artist...
……
Awen looked at the data in front, and a trace of sadness appeared on his face
"It's my fault. I was too radical. I didn't expect them to be so heartless!"
But then he sighed and ordered
"Please help me make an appointment with the representatives of the chaebols. I'll invite them to tea..."
Only the deep-rooted plutocrats can do this to temporarily stabilize the situation and at least ensure food prices.
Maybe I shouldn’t be so tough...
Thinking of his dead friend, Awen couldn't help but sigh. If it were you, what would you choose?
Maybe, I am really not suitable...
But at this moment his secretary reported to him
"Mr. Speaker, there is a representative from Umbrella who wants to see you."
These words made Awen stunned for a moment.
Umbrella?
At the beginning, he had already made the decision to fully fall to Umbrella, but before he even started to implement it, he was beaten by a combination of punches by the opponent, causing him to be like this now.
The current situation is no longer something Umbrella can solve.
There are actually not many places where Umbrella has a say in commodities. This is not their strength. Even if they do, it is in a few special fields such as silver mines.
Things like food still depend on the faces of the four major grain merchants.
What's more, in South Korea, chaebols still control all aspects.
It can be said that I was unable to parry the opponent's combination of punches, so I could only kneel down and pray for mercy.
This is the reason and confidence for them to make such an extreme choice!
However, Umbrella's representative came over on his own initiative, and he had to meet him both emotionally and rationally.
It's not just a matter of the opponent's strength and status, this assistance alone has been a huge help.
As far as the feedback is concerned, without Umbrella's command, due to the spread of the infected and the lack of timely treatment, the ideal situation would be to double the losses...
Chapter 596
At a brightly lit dinner party in the beautiful city, the guests were all talking to each other politely.
Although all of them are well-dressed, anyone who knows their identities will know that this group is internationally notorious international speculators.
Every time the Great Beauty enters the harvest tide, and raises interest rates to push many places around the world to the limit, they go out with torches to light fires everywhere, plunder large amounts of wealth, and acquire various high-quality assets at low prices.
However, something was different. Among this group of people, there were several Asian representatives with obvious Southern Goryeo style. They obviously received a lot of attention and became the center of the banquet, with faces full of pride.
This situation is rare.
"It's really delicious. It really takes an economy of this size to reap this kind of profit."
"To our victory."
"Haha, if it weren't for the cooperation of our friends, we wouldn't have been able to go so smoothly."
"Yes, the preparation time is too short, and South Korea is also prepared. If you really want to bite hard, it will be a bit difficult."
A group of people gave high praise to the representatives of South Korea.
“Everywhere, it’s all about organizing things, and we just hope that this small appeal can be passed.”
Despite their great achievements, these South Koreans still behaved very modestly.
This time, they made a desperate move!
Of course they can see the shortcomings and problems of South Korea. In fact, they can help to counteract this time. Because the incident happened too suddenly, this group of people was not fully prepared.
But they lack confidence in the future.
In this case, a desperate choice was made.
In fact, regardless of whether they have been bought into by Wall Street godfathers, at least their basic base is still in South Korea, and the core of their employees, senior management, and management all started in South Korea.
Doing this kind of thing will have a big impact on their foundation.
This is not simply a matter of money and interests.
People do things, and ultimately the implementation will go to every individual who performs it.
But they still made such a choice, and naturally they also have greater ambitions!
There is not enough benefit to make it worth the risk.
That is, the chaebols headed by Four Stars want to make up for their biggest shortcomings...
force!
When the chaebol of South Korea was first created, it was created by the man who was always criticized in movies.
But the original intention of the other party was to use the chaebol as a chained dog, and they were still suppressed when he was in office.
Because the original South Korea was a military leader, no one dared to make a fuss.
Subsequently, the chaebol gradually grew bigger, but because the pressure was too harsh, situations like Awu and Awen would occasionally occur.
This is a threat in their eyes. If another strongman appears one day, with high enough status, power, and prestige, he may still give them a fatal blow.
They definitely don't want to experience that situation again.
That's why South Korea has always been cursed by the Blue House. They even guard against their own people.
And there are ways to solve the problem once and for all.
Umbrella perfectly explained a new possibility to them!
That is to take force into their own hands.
Similar to Big Beautiful Military Contractor, even more thorough than Big Beautiful Military Contractor.
Even if you can't get it right in one step, you can at least get the authorization to form your own armed force and be able to deploy heavy armor firepower.
The reasons have all been thought out, in order to prepare for biochemical crises or even abyssal invasion faster.
If you can get the support of the organization, it is quite possible to take advantage of this once-in-a-lifetime opportunity.
That's why they work so hard.
"Haha, of course we will support you, and I think the organization as a whole will also consider it. After all, no one will dislike the combat power completely in our hands."
A man with a mustache wearing gold-rimmed glasses had a smile on his face.
They have always known that force is the cornerstone, which is why there are military contractors with big tails.
But every time the beautiful girl is involved is quite troublesome, and everyone is watching.
If you can free up a trumpet here in South Korea, it would actually be a very good choice!
We need to equip them with advanced equipment and support them with support!
When the time comes, if you are dissatisfied with something, just hint and let it go out to bite people like crazy.
After this time, Nan Goryeo no longer had the slightest chance of refusing.
However, this power certainly cannot be entirely controlled by Gouzi. They must have enough restraints and checks to ensure that they are obedient.
But at this moment, someone suddenly came over and whispered in the ear of the banquet organizer for a while, which immediately made his face darken.
When the people nearby saw this, they knew something bad was going on and said something bad. Some people frowned and said
"What's going on? Is it Umbrella?"
Of course they had some predictions about Umbrella. After all, it was obvious from the beginning that the one from South Korea was going to 'visit'.
They have always suspected that the other party's rise to power may be related to Umbrella.
Moreover, the emergence of this biochemical crisis is unclear.
Well, although I still suspect that my family did it, Umbrella is also very suspicious!
"They have no advantage in commodities related to people's livelihood, especially food."
"However, they also have great influence on Pakistan. Do they want to use Pakistan's food? However, water from far away cannot quench the thirst of nearby people, and there is no time to prepare and transport it there."
"Besides, when we get to South Korea, we must also use the channels of our partners..."
Several people spoke to each other.
"It is indeed Umbrella."
The host of the banquet sighed, and then said something unsightly
"It didn't say food, but they have signed a memorandum of security maintenance and are about to launch in-depth security-related cooperation. Like Neon, they used Umbrella's drones to bypass our relevant terms..."
South Korea has little autonomy of its own, and is also restricted by the Great Beauty in all aspects.
But similarly, in their internal security management, Da Meili will not interfere too much, which is too troublesome and cumbersome.
It is equivalent to Umbrella bypassing military-related restrictions and going directly in the direction of police use.
The caliber is small, the number of people hired is small, it is reasonable, and there is nothing to say!
"Sure enough, the tail was exposed. He was sent there by Umbrella. The revelation that he disbanded his predecessor was also the information obtained by Umbrella!"
"Now that we have discovered that we cannot control the situation, are we going to finalize it quickly while we still have the power?"
"It's a bit troublesome, but since it's signed, it can be lifted. If we continue to increase the hype on food, I will make a piece of their bread sell for half a million yuan!"
"Look at how he can push forward this agreement when he can't even buy food or have enough to eat!"
"You remember to organize a relief meal in your own name. Don't really starve to death, but also distract some of the conflicts on your head."
Immediately after that, someone came to report, and new news appeared.
In addition to cooperation in security maintenance, Awen also signed a medical-related cooperation with Umbrella.
From now on, the first aid work in South Korea will be handed over to Umbrella's trauma team, and Umbrella's acquisition of South Korea Hospital will be released.
Public security and medical care are already two major areas, but they are actually directly 'contracted' to Umbrella?
In fact, this kind of thing is not uncommon in the West. For example, many of the sky-high-priced ambulances and firefighting services are contracted out to private companies.
It's just that it's quite rare for Umbrella to directly eat a country in one go, let alone two major items!
These two seemingly unremarkable decisions can be said that once successfully implemented, Umbrella will immediately gain a huge say in South Korea.
Even more radical than neon!
Chapter 597 New Technology
After the all-round cooperation project between South Korea and Umbrella was revealed, it directly led to a big jump.
But it happened to be limited to public security cooperation and medical cooperation, which left Da Mei, who had many checks and balances, without a good excuse for a while.
Now the Yongsan base and the Busan base are paralyzed and cannot even pose any real threat.
What's even worse is that even though the big beauty wanted to take another stab at it, the international speculators and various hedge funds under his command are also hunting down South Korea, making it look ugly.
When it comes to matters involving interests, they have already tried their best, and it is really difficult to increase their targeting...
Oh, it turns out they have been pushed to the wall.
What else can we do to them?
For a while, apart from a few verbal threats, there was nothing I could do.
This is a bit embarrassing.
But Da Meili always does things like this, didn't he just stab you a few times? You haven't been stabbed to death yet, so how dare you resist?
"We are very disappointed with such a hasty decision by South Korea, which goes against the values of the civilized world."
The beautiful spokesperson immediately started to criticize her.
However, this time Nan Goryeo did not reply, but Umbrella made an official announcement
"We maintain law and order and promote medical care. Do you mean to say that we are uncivilized?"
Good guy, originally the beautiful girl was targeting South Korea, but Umbrella jumped out to pick up the slack and immediately killed the person.
Now Umbrella's rescue robots are still moving bricks in the ruins of beautiful New York, and various useful production capacities in batteries have also been increased.
The humanitarian aspect is indeed very authentic.
In addition, the most important thing is that the opponent's fist is very hard, which makes it difficult for the beautiful lady who is currently in charge of things to deal with it for the time being.
But the voting results have come out, and the new speaker who is about to take office has spoken on a special topic
"What we say is uncivilized means uncivilized. Civilization is defined by us. When I take office, I will make the beauty great again!"
Ever since Kangaroo and Gaul were defeated successively and Umbrella showed her ferocity, the beauty rarely made such strong statements towards Umbrella.
But this time, the soon-to-be popular talker once again showed great strength.
Not to mention, he received a lot of support after speaking like this.
Yes, we are the beacon of civilization! Civilization is defined by us!
But Umbrella has no intention of getting used to being beautiful.
Just keep talking, we have enough ammunition...
Swish~
Some videos of previous rescue efforts in South Korea were played.
Da Mei actually also showed a lot of scenes of their reformed warriors fighting against the zombie tide to portray a sense of tragedy.
Many beautiful people from South Korea, as well as beautiful people from other places, have left a large number of comments on similar videos.
"It is indeed a beacon of civilization."
"This is the responsibility of the great beauty!"
"Touched! They paid with their lives!"
"The hope of mankind!"
"World Police!"
"..."
While these voices are still lingering in my ears, Umbrella's new video is a slap in the face.
The videos released by Da Meili must be carefully selected.
But Umbrella's videos were not so particular. They were all shot by drones, uploaded by others, and taken by the wealthy young lady.
The first is the scene of heavily armored reformed soldiers falling from the sky and crushing the car, killing the people inside along with it.
It caused an uproar when it came out.
That's it?
However, professionals will immediately come to wash it
"This is an accident and a helpless move!"
"Yes, they all died in the battle. No one knew they would be trampled to death if they fell."
“It’s a shame to post these videos specifically!”
"This is provocation!"
Then, the group of modified warriors fired at the crowd along with the infected bodies, and the scene of them pulling the trigger without hesitation was also so cruel.
"His heart is worth killing!"
"Do you know the threat of infected bodies? You must do this!"
"They are the ones who feel the most distress when they pull the trigger."
"Do you know what it means to kill the Virgin first in the last days?"
"..."
After that, a few soldiers who left the team shot at the building to prevent them from closing the door and trying to enter.
There was a lot of justification and praise immediately afterwards.
"This is their responsibility. They are preventing those selfish guys from closing their doors and preparing to accept more refugees."
"She is indeed beautiful, I admire her."
"In comparison, those security guards are like clowns."
"..."
Then, the scene came out of the pretty girl entering and starting to shoot at the crowd, which immediately made the group of people who started praising her seem to be taking advantage of her. Damn it, you plotted against me!
But there are still people who bite the bullet and say
"This is decisiveness."
"Yes, after all, it is a zombie crisis. We must consider whether there are infected people in the crowd. You also need to have courage to shoot."
"Admire."
At least there was some basis for washing at the beginning, but now I was still washing, and it immediately started to have the opposite effect.
A flood of outraged comments poured in.
Wait until the scene of shooting people on the elevator from behind, then running away, and even rushing out and locking the door after reaching the top floor is presented one by one.
Even those beautiful and spirited people couldn't clean it up, so they could only forcefully say a few words.
"Sometimes running away is also a kind of courage."
"They are actually in pain."
"Warrior."
"Don't use individual cases to define groups."
"You must know how to think independently."
After that, their warriors stripped naked for inspection, especially after the drone's words of 'delay', it instantly caused the whole network to burst into laughter.
Then there was the contrast between Umbrella's efficiency when commanding and the heavy losses suffered by the ambush after the beauty took over.
It can be said that all kinds of information appear in all directions, and it is simply inevitable to avoid it.
Press your big beautiful face to the ground and rub it.
Let the incoming speaker keep jumping on certain topics.
He even spoke out loud.
"What's the point of signing this with South Korea? Food prices in South Korea are so high now, you will kill them!"
In fact, South Korea itself is not in a position to run out of food immediately.
It can be said that this food shortage is entirely man-made.
The speaker was so open-minded that he undoubtedly tore off their fig leaf.
Da Meili is so profit-seeking, and is not so civilized on the surface at all. He doesn't care even if he creates a food tragedy for the sake of profit.
This actually chills the hearts of many people who can understand.
But at this moment, Umbrella also issued its latest announcement.
"At present, our company has developed a synthesis machine that converts carbon dioxide and water into carbohydrates. Although it is not very delicious, it can fill the stomach. From now on, humans will no longer be hungry..."
