Chapter 242 Enron Incident, Foreign Land Leases
The Indian farm is located in Wyoming.
It is apparently jointly invested by large groups such as ADM and DuPont Seed Industry.
But in fact, the entire farm was just used to capture the natives of the Indian reservation.
It is also a shell company used by the Smith family to cover up the 'genetic experiment project'.
This information has already spread throughout North America.
It also became a scandal for ADM and DuPont Seed Industry.
However, old Smith was unlucky.
While arresting the Indians, they found five shamans with ancient heritage.
Not only are they extremely powerful and resemble genetic warriors, they also have extraordinary veterinary skills that can treat diseases suffered by birds and animals.
So Old Smith used this group of ‘veterinarians’ to clarify the scandal: We built the farm to protect precious historical heritage!
Then the veterinarians were registered with medical qualification certificates and began to treat people.
It turns out that veterinarians can really treat people.
Because the Smith family relied on shamans and the genetic technology authorized by three-dimensional agriculture to quickly create the Indian black fat man.
When Old Bu thought of this, his head ached.
In order to create genetic warriors, the Carlisle Consortium has spent more than three billion dollars, but has gained nothing so far.
Why can someone else do it?
So...
Even if Lao Bu understands that once the Lao Bu family attacks the Smith family, it is very likely to destroy the encirclement of Sanyuan Agriculture by both parties in the Eastern Market.
But he decided to do it anyway.
Because of the speed at which the Smith family was growing, he had trouble sleeping and eating.
As a result, a series of new regulations targeting the National Stock Exchange, North American Nasdaq, North American financial supervision, North American financial services and other industries were submitted to the Senate by the Lao Bu family think tank.
At this time, the Bu family almost controlled both houses of Congress, the Supreme Court, the Military Department, the Marine Corps, which was vertically managed by the general manager, and the Texas National Guard, almost suppressing the democratic factions. respite.
Therefore, many bills were just formalities. It took only three days for Xiaobu's name to be signed and they officially came into effect.
At the same time.
In order to restrict the development of Sanyuan Agriculture and destroy the leased land cooperation between Sanyuan Agriculture and Far East Petroleum Company, the Xiaobu administration issued a bill to further restrict the purchase of graphics cards by Sanyuan Agriculture.
The bill stipulates that no enterprise or individual, including countries, regions, and major organizations, may provide graphics cards, display chips, memory particles, or operating systems to Sanyuan Agriculture.
Otherwise, war!
The Bush administration is so domineering.
After finishing everything, Lao Bu suddenly remembered something.
"The two 8,000-ton destroyers were nearly destroyed by the main guns of the sailing battleship. This is what Old Smith did. Ask him to donate a military expenditure or find a way to repair it!"
The Jones and Russell, It is a North American Arleigh Burke-class destroyer.
It is also a new generation of guided missile destroyer in North America.
Equipped with 4 General Electric LM2500 gas turbines, with power up to 105,000 horsepower and a maximum speed of 32 knots.
It has the world's first-class equipment "Aegis" system, and is also the first destroyer in the world to adopt vertical launch of missiles.
Staff strength is 303, including 23 officers.
The construction cost in 1988 was approximately US$700 million.
The construction cost in 2001 was approximately US$2.2 billion.
No way, after the de-industrialization of North America, global procurement was implemented, causing the cost to skyrocket.
So much so that the B2 stealth bomber began to have difficulty giving birth.
In this context, in order to reduce fiscal expenditures, the George W. Bush administration will definitely ask Old Smith to bear the high maintenance costs.
……
The other side.
Tijuana Shipyard.
The captain of the Jones, the black-skinned Captain Paul, and the captain of the Russell breathed a sigh of relief when they saw the looming dock and the Stars and Stripes fluttering in the wind.
The experience of these three days can be described as a nightmare.
The weird sailing battleship, the outrageous black fat Indian, the out-of-control weapons system...
If you think about it carefully, all of this is like a ghost attack.
Fortunately, at dawn, we encountered a strange maritime transport convoy composed of six ironclad ships. Two destroyers that looked dilapidated, but actually did not suffer much damage, and two destroyers transporting self-destructing drones. transport ship, saved.
Subsequently, we received instructions from the Ministry of Maritime Affairs and followed the other party to the Tijuana Shipyard for six months of maintenance and rest.
"It's holiday!"
Black-skinned Colonel Paul and the captain of the Russell stood on the deck, watching the ships entering the port one after another, and lit a cigarette each.
Suddenly.
The two saw the familiar fat black man and boarded the battleship.
No, it was the same fat black man who walked up to them.
Colonel Paul even recognized the leader, the one-eyed Indian pirate who slapped him on the back of the head.
“What?!”
“Damn it, hurry up and get ashore. If you can’t train 3,000 qualified sailors within half a year, I will put you all on the mast!”
“…”
…
New York, National Stock Exchange.
When Old Smith received the news that the drone had self-destructed, he thought his work was in vain.
After receiving Lao Bu’s request to repair the two destroyers, I was stunned, and suddenly felt like another piece of pie had fallen from the sky.
UAVs count, two 8,000-ton destroyers are an unexpected surprise!
Just imagine, if various devices are hacked, or even an entire battleship is imitated, wouldn’t the Smith family have real naval combat capabilities?
If combined with the production capacity of the Tijuana Shipyard...
Isn’t the Smith family going to become the maritime overlord in the new era?
“Thank you, Old Boo!”
Old Smith was ecstatic and hurriedly took over the task of repairing the two destroyers.
But soon we received various regulations from the George W. Bush administration restricting securities across the United States.
There are definitely various loopholes in the financial system. For example, there is currently no clear legal regulation on whether affiliation, lending, bridge loans, repaying loans with loans, and advancing funds for others are legal.
In the past, financial institutions could turn 10,000 US dollars into 1 million by relying on these.
Nowadays, there are various regulations. US$10,000 is US$10,000. Although the financial market has been formalized, where can we make up for the US$990,000 originally owed on credit?
Old Smith first thought of the subprime mortgage crisis.
However, the Bush administration and the Bush family started out in the military and real industries. Although they understand the dangers of the subprime mortgage crisis, they do not necessarily understand that "a subprime mortgage crisis has now emerged."
In other words, the Bush administration has not yet realized that these bills will cause a heavy blow to the North American financial system.
The problem is that when Old Smith asked the financial elites of the democratic faction to warn the other party, the other party would most likely not believe it.
Strictly speaking, this is a good thing for Old Smith.
Because once the Bush administration makes a mistake, the democratic factions can come back and launch a new North American general manager.
But European capital is ready to move, European capital is eager for revenge, and Sanyuan Capital may secretly attack. Who knows whether North America will be shattered after experiencing this crisis.
Therefore, Old Smith thought about it and decided to take action against the Old Bu family.
The Carlisle Consortium controlled by the Bu family owns a natural gas company called Enron.
The company is headquartered in Houston, Texas. It was engaged in physical industry in the early stage and finance in the later stage, so that it became the world's largest natural gas and electricity supply company.
If it were another person, it would be difficult to find the loopholes of this giant, and it would also be difficult to kill the opponent.
But who is Old Smith?
He is the leader of the North American financial system and the leader of the world financial system.
In his opinion, Enron's financial system was simply full of loopholes.
In particular, the other party used a North American Jewish audit team to modify bank data controlled by the Smith family.
In other words, few people who play finance are legal.
If the controller wants to kill the other party, all it takes is one sentence.
So...
January 30th.
Enron was exposed by the New York Times and the Wall Street Journal for financial fraud. And list a series of illegal and illegal executives and their actions.
North American Taxation, FBL, and the Supreme Court successively intervened in this case.
February 3rd.
The Smith family threatened genocide and forced the head of the Walton family to death, and put pressure on Enron's European branch, which led to Enron's European branch successively moving to France, Germany, the Czech Republic, and Spain. , filed for bankruptcy.
February 4th.
Enron's African branch was attacked by indigenous warlords.
A group of African versions of fat black men occupied Enron's African headquarters, dismantled a large number of equipment and took away a large number of employees.
This resulted in Enron's African division declaring bankruptcy.
February 5th.
Soros raised US$15 billion, and Buffett raised US$17 billion, announcing an attack on the Australian financial market.
That afternoon, Australia forced Enron's Australian branch to file for bankruptcy.
February 7th.
This is the Oriental Lantern Festival.
Enron Corporation of North America announced that it has entered bankruptcy protection.
Because the company owns many power plants with total assets of US$34 billion, owns 32,000 miles of gas pipelines in North America, and owns the largest energy service company in North America... it has a heavy debt of US$31.2 billion.
As a result, the North American financial system has a subprime mortgage gap of 312xN times.
This is somewhat similar to a triangular debt.
I owe you, you owe him, and he owes me. We could have paid off each other's debts, but if there is no 31.2 billion as turnover, it is equivalent to the three of us owing 31.2 billion x 3, a debt of up to 93.6 billion.
Old Smith hopes to use this incident to warn the Lao Bu family.
I never expected it.
In order to reduce debt, the Bush administration even asked the Federal Reserve to start raising interest rates...
The general meaning is that the increase in deposit interest rates will bring back the flow of U.S. dollars and make people more willing to deposit.
At the same time, loan interest rates increase, which increases borrowing costs, reduces people's desire to borrow, and reduces the risk of loan defaults.
When the two are combined, with the money printing machine at full power, the number of U.S. dollars circulating on the market decreases and the purchasing power of U.S. dollars increases, which can reduce inflation and stabilize prices.
Looks like a good thing.
But the Oriental money printing press is also running at full power, but the exchange rate remains unchanged.
In the past, 1 red dollar made a roll of toilet paper, sold it to North America, and took away 1 US dollar.
Now it takes 2 red dollars to make a roll of toilet paper, sell it to North America, and take away 2 dollars.
It seems that nothing has changed, but the interest rate in North America has increased. The amount of interest increase is equal to the amount of loss.
This is good for Eastern exports.
The most important thing is that Yu Sanyuan has exhausted production capacity for so long and prepared so many beverages, soy products, blended oils, trolleys, Laotoule, toilet paper, textiles...
Don't you just wait to sign an equal trade agreement with North America and then dump a massive amount of products over there?
Let’s use a metaphor.
Before interest rates were raised, Yu Sanyuan sold goods worth 100 billion U.S. dollars to North America. North America deducted tariffs and then paid interest, and Yu Sanyuan got 100 billion U.S. dollars.
Now that North America is raising interest rates, Yu Sanyuan is estimated to get 110 billion.
Coincidentally, Neil Xiaobu actually went to Dongfang to beg Yu Sanyuan to sign the agreement.
“You don’t understand finance at all!”
Old Smith suddenly felt that Old Bu was the so-called pig teammate.
Fortunately, Yu Sanyuan was busy, even if he got the farmland in the Far East, he would not be able to develop it.
Because Sanyuan Agriculture has long been out of money in order to invest in communication networks.
Even the year-end bonuses and year-end dividends were replaced by cars and houses, and no cash was available.
……
Northern suburb of Fei City, International Conference Center.
Amidst the busyness and the sky full of fireworks, the Spring Festival of 2001 slipped away quietly without realizing it.
“20 years old!”
Yu Yang stood in the square, looking up at the stars.
His mature back does not look like a young one.
Instead, he looked like a strange being who had gone through many vicissitudes of life and experienced various human connections, and was more stable than his old Dong.
Lao Dong coughed and shook off his random thoughts, "Neil Xiaobu has promised to give us equal trade status, but we must sign the 'Related Agreement on Restricting the Use of Graphics Card Matrix'."
“Sign it, we are at the end of our rope now.”
Sanyuan Agriculture does not have the ability to independently manufacture graphics cards.
Therefore, most of the graphics card matrix in the Xintai data center are office computer parts disassembled by Fujima from bankrupt companies in Tokyo Bay, and bulk graphics cards that Keiko Ikawa secretly helped purchase electronic components and then soldered at home.
In this era of competition for computing power, our company is inherently lagging behind North America.
Especially in a few years, dual-channel graphics cards with 64M video memory, 128M video memory, and even 1G video memory will be released one after another.
Iteration after iteration, update after update, I simply can’t afford it.
So Yu Yang decided to take advantage of the high price of graphics cards to dismantle two-thirds of the existing graphics card matrix and sell it to Ice Bear.
As for the decline in computing power, how can we fight against US capital...
Capitalist imperialism is a paper tiger.
We have beaten the NSA so hard that the US capital has not dared to make small moves for at least two years. They can only shout and show off their power.
Besides, Old Smith's takedown of Enron has made bad debts in North America more and more obvious. It is estimated that in this time and space, planes will also crash into buildings and destroy the books.
Then Lao Bu used this to attack the Harden family, the second shareholder of the Carlisle consortium, and then went to Afghanistan to fight Harden.
Then, in order to obtain more resources for settling accounts and to hinder the pace of the euro, it became inevitable to attack Iraq.
At this time, the American capital is busy opening champagne to celebrate, and has no time to pay attention to the East.
And two years later.
It secretly acquired ARM from England. With its massive talents, Xiangjiang Sanyuan Technology Group should be able to develop SoC graphics cards based on the ARM architecture.
This graphics card is also called a ‘chip that integrates the system into the hardware’.
The design is similar to an integrated graphics card.
But the integrated graphics card integrates the graphics card into the CPU module and plugs in a memory and memory stick.
The Soc integrates the CPU, memory, and storage into the GPU.
It is equivalent to turning the graphics card into a microcomputer.
It is helpful to enhance the speed and accuracy of the graphics card matrix in selecting answers from the database and improve the degree of intelligence.
It is also equivalent to customizing a set of servers and databases for the communication network, which will help speed up the conversion of domain names into IP.
By then, we will be able to achieve mass production with the help of Fujima's help in obtaining three 180nm process lithography machines, as well as Dongfang's self-produced scientific research lithography machines that cannot be put into commercial use due to patent issues.
Then form a new smart graphics card matrix.
Our own 180nm process technology and Dongfang's self-produced 280nm process technology are very backward compared to this year's 90nm in North America, but they can be manufactured and they cannot be manufactured are two different things.
Yu Yang thought about many things in an instant and looked at the old director, "Boss, after signing the agreement, I will leave it to you to deal with export issues. After all, the US capital suppresses Sanyuan Agriculture, and there is a high probability that it will I’ll pay the bills.”
“I’ll think of a way.”
The old director nodded, "Furthermore, we are currently short of funds. The nearly 300 million acres of cultivated land in the Far East may be difficult to develop this year."
"What do we farmers in the East only like?"< br>
“Land?”
Old Dong instantly understood what it meant, “Are you planning to enter the farmland in the Far East into the trade hall?”
“No, it is an enlarged version of the Far East. The map is hung in the trade hall, regardless of mountains, rivers, endless swamps, or 300 million acres of ordinary cultivated land. The rent is 10 yuan per mu per year, the contract is for 10 years, and only three-line seeds, three-line fertilizers, "Three series of pesticides."
"Good guy, if we rent them all out, including the income from selling seeds, fertilizers, and pesticides, we will probably make hundreds of billions every year... The question is, is anyone willing to go? "
"Don't worry, leader, regardless of farming or developing swamps, Sanyuan Agriculture has prepared cash crops in advance, just like swamps. Have you heard of crayfish?"
" I’ve heard of big lobster.”
“Let’s try spicy crayfish.”
