After resting in the Enduo area, and then considering that there would be inspections from Kyoto Mugen near the portal, they spent a lot of effort to get rid of the tracking, and took a circle before returning to Nisto Industrial Park.
Now, six full days have passed since they started this underwater expedition.
After arriving in an area with Internet signal, Xu Yang checked the news and found that everything had changed. The Yanduo incident triggered an astonishing chain reaction. The world was turned upside down. Too many things happened in the past six days.
In the eyes of the rest of the world, the sun's rays weakened six days ago and have no intention of returning. Even if the weather forecast agency pointed out that the sunshine will soon return, the whole world is still trembling in the eternal night. Heating has become the top priority, and energy has become the top priority.
Consumption increased dramatically.
The long darkness not only triggered heated discussions on the Internet, but also completely affected the financial market, and a huge economic crisis began to erupt.
The shrinking consumption and overproduction in recent years have sown the seeds of the economic crisis. Yanduo's escape from difficulties has completely detonated this huge explosive barrel. The whole world has become cold, and we don't know when light and warmth will be restored, which will also affect all economic situations.
Variety.
Xu Yang sorted out the news and sorted out the events that happened in the last 48 hours according to the timeline.
The first was the complete collapse of Kyoto Mugen’s stock price. Investors lost trust in Kyoto Mugen and left the market one after another. At the beginning of this year, Kyoto Mugen’s stock price was 3,400. After the Shenku Building incident, it plunged to 2,700. Wen Shi’s defeat in the sea battle made it
The stock price fell to 2300, and is currently at 350, and is still falling.
The original management has been completely disbanded and is trying to reorganize. "Sakura Witch" Kirino Reiyo is preparing to find the next president. Former president Nozomi Takahashi committed suicide by caesarean section live on the short video platform "Wanmeng Entertainment". The number of people in the live broadcast room
Reaching 90 million people, the comment section was full of denunciations and curses. Medical drones produced the death report of Nozomi Takahashi on the spot, and then broadcast his funeral live.
The disappearance of the sun's rays also has far-reaching consequences.
The war between Indo and Dirnai resulted in Indo extracting too much sunlight, weakening solar radiation, and causing an unusually severe cold to sweep across the world.
Over the past six days, agriculture has been in trouble. The sun has disappeared, the cold wind is howling, and the temperature near the equator has dropped to 15°C within a few hours. Winter has entered the subtropical areas early.
With the help of new technologies, 23% of the world's agriculture is now completely disconnected from natural sunlight, while the remaining 77% of crops are dying at an alarming rate. Coupled with the huge cold wave, world agriculture has been completely damaged, and the food supply has been severely affected.
Costs have increased significantly.
On the third day after losing the sunshine, one agricultural company after another announced that the current season crops had suffered a devastating blow, and significantly increased food prices to correspond to the expected output. Food supply was tight, and food prices rose accordingly, including feed, livestock breeding, cotton, textiles, etc.
The grain processing industry was affected, and investors quickly fled the food sector, which had become a sinking ship.
Subsequently, the Peacock-Tristan Group in Baixiangzhou suffered a huge blow. This giant company was formed by the merger of two large companies, namely the large agricultural and food company Peacock Company and the financial company Tristan Company. It was only used in order to get the name of a giant company.
Run together.
Even if the sunshine returns, it will take a long time for Peacock Company to make up for this loss. Tristan Company began to push for a separation from Peacock Company to prevent its collapse from harming its own interests.
The two companies finally announced their separation 5 hours ago, ending the history of joint management of the Peacock-Tristan Group, and the situation in Baixiangzhou has changed.
In recent hours, another more famous food company, Burrito Hat, also collapsed and became the biggest victim. Agricultural companies around the world announced to reduce the export of food raw materials and jointly formulated plans to significantly increase the price of food and feed.
In order to protect itself, Burrito Hat's stock price fell rapidly, and the livestock stables and food processing plants were closed one after another. Its own food supply could only meet 1/4 of its production needs.
As a new company joining the ranks of giant companies, Burrito Hat was originally carrying out a series of ambitious expansion plans. It took out huge loans from Schweppes Bank, another giant company, and planned to open burrito shops all over the world. Now it is forced to
Declare default on their debt - they will never be able to repay the money in the current state of the economy.
At the same time, for the purpose of strategic contraction, Burrito Big Hat issued an announcement to close a large number of overseas stores and readjust their business strategies. A batch of loyal store employees were abandoned by them. They also started a war in Tequila Island and tried to force
Acquire nearby agricultural companies to increase food supply.
Faced with Burrito Hat's default, Schweppes Bank took the most severe approach to debt collection. After an efficient meeting, it issued an announcement announcing that they would send their troops overseas within the next week while forcibly confiscating the Burrito Hat store.
To pay off the debt, it launched a corporate war against Burrito Hat. Due to Burrito Hat's breach of contract, its credibility also plummeted.
As a result, three giant companies were hit hard at once, causing the entire economic situation to change rapidly. They were too large to collapse instantly, but they were still on the edge of the cliff.
However, it is the first three days that are the coldest and have the greatest impact on crops. The sunlight recovers very quickly. By the time Xu Yang and the others return to the industrial park, the sunlight has already warmed up and the light is shining again. It is estimated that in a dozen hours, at least the solar energy will be normal.
Returned, but the economic chaos has become unstoppable.
Capital will never rest. They are looking for valuable investment targets around the world, and Blackfire Innovation has become the biggest beneficiary.
Even the dullest person can see the general trend of economic recession. Every region is starting to spiral out of control. Every company is optimizing its structure, laying off employees, or facing bankruptcy. Unemployment is doubling every day, and chaos is intensifying around the world.
Arms will undoubtedly be the best-selling product in the next few years, and both corporatists and anti-corporatists will need guns.
And this is only what happened in the last 48 hours. After that, we don’t know which companies will fall behind or which companies will go to war with other companies.
"The world has exploded." Xu Yang summarized the current situation, "The current world system has no way to preserve itself. We will face the largest economic recession in history."
"What will happen?" Falosa was lying on the seat of the Innovation. The shuttle would arrive home in an hour and return to the lovely industrial park.
"A world war will break out," Xu Yang is convinced, "until the final victor survives, it will completely reshape the world, reconcile the interests of all parties, and unify chaos."
"It's starting to bleed." Falosha found it interesting, "Which giant company do you think will win?"
"We." Xu Yang said.
"Huh?" Falosa became more energetic.
"Besides unifying the world, I'm afraid there is no other way to change all this." Xu Yang said, "The corporate alliance has done it once and tried to eradicate the mystery. We can also work towards this goal again."
"Just do it." Falosa agreed, "To unify the world and end chaos with absolute power."
"Those mysterious beings..." Xu Yang pondered, "How do you think we should deal with them? We have all seen what the mysterious beings can do, including destroying the world."
"The biggest problem is," Falosa said, "the thing they are fighting for is actually in me, which is the power inheritance of the previous god. If I continue to hide, they will also stop for a while. Correspondingly, I
Wherever they appear, they will follow the smell and chase me. So as long as I keep a low profile, I don’t have to worry about them suddenly coming out for the time being. They have been hiding for a thousand years, so they have a lot of patience.”
"That's it for now..." Xu Yang suddenly found a large number of messages from Xiaodao Yezi. As soon as he entered an area with good signal, these communications quickly highlighted, reminding Xu Yang to deal with them immediately.
Xu Yang connected Kojima Yezi's communication to the center console of the Innovation. Her image appeared on the screen, wearing a black formal suit. She had just left a meeting and was now in her hotel room.
"Hey! You must have done it!" Kojima Ye Zi sounded very nervous, "Sun Flames and so on."
"I can't say." Of course Xu Yang couldn't admit it.
"Oh, that's really troublesome."
"It's no trouble," Xu Yang reassured her, "You will understand later."
"...Anyway..." Kojima Yezi was still confused, "The world seems to have collapsed, and Xisheng's future plans are constantly changing. It's scary, so you'd better tell me."
"What I can tell you is," Xu Yang said, "everything we do is also beneficial to you. As long as you don't mess around, don't give random orders, and don't break the rules of confidentiality, everything will go as you wish."
"I will try my best to cooperate." Ye Zi finally chose to agree. After all, they have established a relationship of common interests.
"You mentioned the changes in Xisheng," Xu Yang was curious, "Kyoto Infinite, the largest company you support, has collapsed. This will also be a great hindrance to you. What means will you use to reorganize Kyoto Infinite?"
"Reorganization?" Ye Zi shook his head, "We will watch it fall. Kyoto Unlimited is already a low-quality asset and there is no need to save it."
"Then who will you support to manage the northern archipelago next?" Xu Yang frowned.
"Blackfire Revolution."
"It's not easy to control."
"The situation has changed now," Ye Zi sighed. "Everyone on the Internet is criticizing us, Xisheng, and everything. There is an undercurrent. There are more and more unemployed people. You haven't been here recently, haven't you seen those people on the street?
The gathered guys. The family suspects that people will unite in the future to give us a fatal blow, so we will change the direction of investment and support the Blackfire innovation to win the entire war, support them to capture the entire archipelago, and let the Blackfire do it for us
Take over everything.”
"...is there any benefit to Xi Sheng?"
"Yes," Ye Zi explained, "Black Fire Innovation is essentially a company, not a completely perverted monster. Their managers, cadres and soldiers also need money and three meals a day."
"A lot of people will die."
"Anyway," Ye Zi said, "Since anime and games can no longer make everyone obedient, we might as well treat them to bullets."
