Chapter 420 Li Zetian is going to provide disaster relief
“Will the White House be knocked down?”
Li Zetian was unsure. He didn't have it in his previous life, but he didn't know if it would change in this life because of the butterfly effect hero...
At this moment, in the hall, Yu Jingqiu, Dongfang Yuqin and others were watching the live broadcast on the TV station. They were all shocked by these horrific acts. At this moment, I suddenly remembered what Li Zetian had mentioned to them before, and I suddenly felt frightened.
Li Zetian said: "This time terrorists hijacked a total of four planes, two of which belonged to Chronos Airlines! No matter what, we should immediately compensate and comfort all the victims of these terrorist incidents! "
With that said, Li Zetian looked at Selena and ordered: "Get ready, I want to take a private plane to New York immediately!"
Before Selina could answer, Yu Jingqiu and Dongfang Yuqin cast worried looks.
"My dear, the terrorists are so rampant. I don't know if they will continue to hijack other planes in the future. It will be very dangerous for you to go there at this time!" Yu Jingqiu advised.
Li Zetian shook his head and said: "Probably not. It takes a few hours to go from Los Angeles to New York. By the time I get there, it should be safe. In addition, the US government has notified all major airlines that no flights are allowed to take off, so, There should be no more terrorist attacks in the future..."
Hearing what Li Zetian said, Yu Jingqiu and Dongfang Yuqin felt a little relieved.
"By the way, Vanessa, contact the reporter immediately, and I will introduce the interview at the Los Angeles Airport. At this time, I must stand up and express my position on this rescue operation as soon as possible."
"yes!!!"
Vanessa nodded, and immediately walked out the door with Selina, picked up her phone, and started giving Li Zetian's orders!
Li Zetian went to the room, preparing to change his casual clothes into a solemn black suit.
Ten minutes later, Li Zetian drove to the airport.
Li Zetian's private plane has been replaced by a Space-X2000 large passenger plane, which can only be accommodated by large airports. Naturally, it is impossible to fly a plane in the Lee mansion above Beverly Hills.
Li Zetian sat in the car and couldn't help but frowned. Thinking that he was taking a private plane and having to go to the airport, he felt it was a waste of time. He thought about it, buy a piece of land, build the Li Manor, and build a large aircraft in the manor. field……
Jingle Bell!
Jingle Bell! !
Li Zetian answered a phone call at this time. After a while, he nodded and said, "Well, okay, I understand!"
After hanging up the phone, Li Zetian said to Selena and Vanessa: "The news just came that American Airlines Flight 77 hit the Pentagon, causing a large-scale collapse and huge losses!"
When Selena and Vanessa heard this, their pretty faces turned pale.
Li Zetian said calmly: "The three hijacked planes have all completed terrorist attacks. Now there is only one plane left, and the situation is the most serious. Once the White House, the official residence of the president, which symbolizes the highest power of the United States, is hit, The negative impact is unbelievable!”
Selena and Vanessa turned pale: "These terrorists are too rampant!"
"Desperadoes have no fear of death."
While Li Zetian was speaking, a fierce battle was taking place inside the last hijacked flight, Chronos Airlines Flight 93!
Passengers and crew have successfully contacted ground personnel, and they have also been informed of the attacks on the World Trade Center and Pentagon. The US government couldn't save them, now, they can only save themselves!
"Guys, the other three hijacked planes have crashed, and no one on the plane survived! At this moment, everyone should follow me and rush to the first class cabin, otherwise we will be dead!!!"
"Attack!!!"
Dozens of passengers began to fight back. Although the terrorists relied on their weapons, they were outnumbered and could not withstand it. However, during the struggle, the plane began to face downwards and turned over. Chronos Airlines' first Flight 93 crashed into a field in Shanksville, Pennsylvania, at 580 miles per hour, only about 20 minutes' flight time from Washington, DC.
Flight 93 had already been locked by U.S. satellites. As soon as it crashed, the U.S. government immediately received the news.
While President George W. Bush breathed a sigh of relief, he was filled with grief and sent rescue workers to the crash site to rescue people. Maybe some people survived.
Li Zetian had already arrived at Los Angeles Airport.
At this moment, reporters gathered outside the airport.
When Li Zetian's iconic Rolls-Royce drove over, reporters immediately swarmed forward.
Li Zetian stepped out of the car, looked at the reporters with a sad face, and lamented: "I already know about the terrorist attack this morning. At this moment, I am ready to go to the front line to rescue these innocent victims! I will launch my own All forces support this disaster relief operation! At this moment, all companies under my name in New York have sent rescue personnel..."
"Finally, I hereby solemnly assure you that Chronos Airlines will definitely compensate the victims on our flights, and promise that we will work with the U.S. government in the future to strengthen aviation security and implement various measures. Take various anti-terrorism measures and strengthen the fight against terrorists to ensure the safety of every passenger!!!”
In the "911 Incident", American Airlines and Chronos Airlines were both tragic. Two planes each were hijacked. Of course, other airlines are not much better. After the "911" incident, Americans were afraid to fly, and the aviation market fell into a trough.
Li Zetian showed his face outside the airport and made his attitude clear.
Later, when Space-X2000 flew into the sky, reporters at the World Trade Center rescue scene reported on Li Zetian's previous interview. Li Zetian's image as a "good man" and "great philanthropist" was immediately established, and he received praise from countless people in the United States and even around the world.
"Chronos Li is a conscientious and responsible businessman!"
"Yes, I saw many employees from Chronos Li's companies at the rescue site! Microsoft, Sprint, Apple, Amazon, Galaxy Network, Qualcomm and other companies...Amazon brought a lot of food, water and tents. Ke Doctors and nurses from Ronos Hospital are everywhere! Apple brought many Apple phones!”
"Well, why does Apple bring so many Apple phones?" At this time, a newly arrived reporter couldn't help but ask.
"This is Manhattan, New York, a highly densely populated area. At this moment, everyone is using mobile phones to seek communication. Therefore, although there is a signal, the channel is extremely crowded, and many people cannot make calls or send text messages. But Apple mobile phones are like ordinary Different mobile phones have mobile email system terminals, not only business communication or handheld computers with call functions, but also mobile phone users will be able to exchange emails with computers at any time!
Vice President Cheney of the United States was taking command at the disaster relief site. At first, he was using a different brand of mobile phone and could not make calls or send text messages, and could not issue orders at all. The snake had no head, and the entire disaster relief operation was in chaos. However, fortunately, someone immediately discovered that the Apple mobile phone could send or receive emails, so it was possible to understand real-time information at the disaster site anytime and anywhere. At this moment, US Vice President Cheney is using his iPhone to receive information and issue orders!
When Apple learned of this, they immediately had a large number of Apple phones shipped over and sent them free of charge to all disaster relief teams and those who needed to make phone calls. "
After hearing this, the reporter who had just arrived was shocked and couldn't help but said: "In times of crisis, good or bad can be seen! Apple mobile phones are still powerful. Other mobile phones cannot communicate. Only Apple mobile phones can. This disaster relief operation , Apple’s mobile phone has contributed a lot! So I decided to do a special report about Apple’s mobile phone!!!”
"Well, this is worth reporting, and I support it!"
When the two talked about Apple phones, BlackBerry was on the verge of tears. It can also communicate, but due to the existence of Apple mobile phones, the glory of BlackBerry has been overshadowed, to the point where its existence is simply ignored.
In the previous life, the BlackBerry mobile phone blossomed during the "911 incident", surpassing all major mobile phone brands and becoming the most popular mobile phone in the United States.
The BlackBerry phone in this life is a tragedy...
A few hours later, Li Zetian landed at the New York Airport and rushed to the disaster relief site non-stop.
His arrival immediately attracted great attention from the media, and reporters came forward to interview him one after another.
However, Li Zetian refused to be interviewed due to the importance of disaster relief.
…
The disaster relief operation lasted for several days. The US government obviously did not have good disaster relief experience, acted slowly and took inappropriate measures. Li Zetian and his company performed outstandingly and made great contributions in this disaster relief operation, which made Americans have a good impression of them.
It is worth mentioning that Apple’s mobile phone has almost become the standard communication equipment during this disaster relief operation. It is very eye-catching and has been reported by major media around the world. The popularity of the Apple mobile phone brand is unparalleled! In just a few days, Apple sold more than 4.5 million iPhones, which is jaw-dropping!
It can be said that Apple benefited greatly from this "911 incident".
On September 15, the U.S. Department of Defense released statistics on the victims and missing persons of the 9/11 terrorist attacks, with a total of 3,025 people.
Municipal officials said a total of 70 people were missing; medical institutions issued death certificates for 1,400 people; 1,331 people had been confirmed dead, but their bodies had not yet been found. Among those killed in the World Trade Center towers, 230 were vice presidents of large U.S. financial institutions. There were 130 people who were brokers of securities companies of various sizes, and there was also a special group of people among the dead and missing, they were 343 firefighters.
American Airlines Flight 11: 87 passengers and crew died
Washington: 184 deaths.
Pentagon: 125 dead.
…
The economic losses caused by the "911 Incident" were also extremely serious. After the incident, American investors began to panic sell stocks, causing the stock market to plummet. Within a few days, despite the Bush administration's massive infusion of funds into the stock market, the Dow Jones Index, Nasdaq Index, and S\u0026P Index fell by 14.3%, 16.1%, and 11.6% respectively, and the stock shrank by approximately US$1.4 trillion!
Manhattan Island in New York is home to multinational financial companies, and the World Trade Center is the center of Manhattan. Companies that can locate their offices in the World Trade Center are naturally powerful companies.
But after the "911" incident, these companies all became unlucky.
Their business was almost paralyzed and a large amount of data was lost. The famous companies include Bank of America, Bank of Asahi, Deutsche Bank, International Trust Bank, Kemper Insurance Company, Marsh Insurance Company, Imperial Life Insurance Company, Guy Carpenter Insurance companies, Canter Fitzgerald Investments, Morgan Stanley Financial, and the Commodity Exchange. Among them, Morgan Stanley suffered the most because it rented a total of 298,000 square meters of office space in the World Trade Center, and many of its employees did not even have an office space.
When the "911 Incident" occurred, Li Zetian did not short the U.S. stock market because he was afraid of arousing suspicion in the United States. However, it does not mean that Li Zetian does nothing!
Morgan Stanley, commonly known as "Big Morgan" in the financial world, is one of the three major investment banks (Goldman Sachs, Morgan Stanley, and Merrill Lynch).
****, the financial pillar of the Morgan consortium, is known as "Little Morgan Stanley" in the industry.
This time, Morgan Stanley was hit hard, and Li Zetian wanted to buy it.
Therefore, when the whole world was paying attention to the "911 Incident", Li Zetian sent personnel to communicate with the board of directors of Morgan Stanley to kill him while he was sick!
Li Zetian explained to the people sent: "This acquisition focuses on the word "quick", and it must be acquired at lightning speed! This moment is the lowest point in Morgan Stanley's history. In the first two months, well-known people in the financial world Banker John Mack resigned, and now he has encountered the '911' incident, and he has suffered the most heavy losses. Therefore, as long as the price can make the Morgan Stanley board of directors excited, they may not consider selling to us!!!"
Morgan Stanley is a world-leading international financial services company whose business scope covers investment banking, securities, investment management and wealth management. Its acquisition will greatly help Li Zetian's property management, so Morgan Stanley became Li Zetian's acquisition target.
In the end, it only took a week for the acquisition to be negotiated.
Li Zetian purchased Morgan Stanley at the market value of Morgan Stanley before the "911" incident, so Morgan Stanley's major shareholders immediately nodded in agreement.
On the morning of September 17, Li Zetian signed an agreement with them.
Selena and Vanessa who were following Li Zetian looked extremely surprised.
"The world-famous Morgan Stanley was acquired so easily..." Vanessa sighed.
Li Zetian looked at the narrow Wall Street and said calmly: "As long as you give money, these Wall Street bankers will sell you anything!"
After a pause, Li Zetian said: "This time the casualty data have been calculated. It is time to compensate the victims of the Chronos flight and the victims of the World Trade Center. Oh, by the way, American Airlines does What kind of compensation was offered, and was the amount high?”
"The other party has not announced it yet." Selena replied.
"Haha," Li Zetian smiled and said, "Tell me, if our compensation is very high, American Airlines will be embarrassed."
Selena and Vanessa looked at each other and couldn't help laughing. Apparently, they both guessed that Li Zetian was going to make American Airlines look bad this time. Who made it the biggest competitor of Chronos Airlines? .
