Chapter 2841 Forced into the Palace
Imperial capital, headquarters of Moyuan Capital.
Jiang Pengyue excitedly rushed to Chen Mo's office and reported: "Boss, this is great news!"
Chen Mo took a sip of tea and said calmly, "Go ahead."
Jiang Pengyue cleared his throat and took a deep breath: "According to the information sent by the "Parents' Association", Guigu's technology companies, Baguo's top ten banks, and Baguo's labor unions are very dissatisfied with this interest rate hike.
The latest news is that they have united and are planning to go to Solomon to force him to stop raising interest rates immediately, which is such a stupid thing to do! "
Chen Mo smiled.
As expected, even if it is an organization controlled by the foundation, they dare to rebel if their interests are affected!
When you help them make money, they are obedient dogs. When you stop giving them dog food, or even ask them to pay for the dog food, they will turn into ungrateful wolves!
Chen Mo thought for a moment, and said in a deep voice: "Spend a sum of money to contact the "rational" and "spirited" university student representatives, trade union representatives and white-collar elites facing unemployment in the hegemonic country.
Tell them the truth about the Foundation and let them march!"
Jiang Pengyue asked: "Where are we going to parade?"
Chen Mo's lips curled up slightly: "Of course we're going to the foundation's headquarters, Huaer Street!"
"I'm going to do something big for Solomon!"
"I want to... occupy Huaer Street!!!"
In the previous life, after the European debt crisis, many Western protesters gathered together to march and occupied the most symbolic square in the Western imperial capital - Plaza de Sol.
They declared, "We are not commodities in the hands of politicians and bankers," to express their protest against the sharp increase in unemployment in Western countries after the European debt crisis.
Since the European debt crisis, the real estate bubble burst, the real estate industry has been depressed, the unemployment rate among young people in Spain has soared to 45%, and the number of unemployed people in Spain accounts for 60% of the euro zone.
After being used to a good life, who the hell would be willing to live a tight and poor life according to the policies of the Oulun?
Originally, Western officials thought that this group of people were just shouting slogans and making some noise and that would be the end of it.
The result was the largest wave of demonstrations in modern human history, with approximately 300 million people protesting, accounting for 7% of the Spanish population.
Two months later, the protest spread to the country of hegemony, and many people tried to awaken the lower-class people in the country of hegemony.
However, compared with the anti-austerity marches in Western countries that often involved millions of people, this opposition movement in the previous hegemonic country was too insignificant, with only a few thousand people participating.
But the presence of a professor from Yelu University gave this parade great historical significance!
Unfortunately, this anti-capital march was ultimately ruthlessly suppressed.
However, the "Occupation of Huaer Street" left a deep mark in the history of the hegemonic country, and made later capitalists no longer dare to exploit the lower-class people without scruples, and at least they had to pretend to do so.
Chen Mo's goal is very simple, to make the "Occupy Huaer Street" that happened in the hegemonic country in the previous life break out ahead of time, and make the scale so large that the foundation cannot bear it, so as to withdraw the order to raise interest rates.
"I'll go right away." Jiang Pengyue said.
……
……
Foundation headquarters.
After another sleepless night, Solomon came here with a haggard face.
After drinking a glass of iced American coffee, Solomon finally felt a little better.
"How's things going these days?" Solomon asked.
Michelle held up a tablet and looked at the data report and said, “The effect of the interest rate hike is still very obvious.
Now, big capitals from all over the world are frantically investing money in hegemonic countries.
Especially the market for the hegemonic currency and the market for financial products related to the hegemonic currency, they were almost all sold out like crazy!
In just a few days, the deposits of the Baguo Kingdom increased by 3 trillion Baguo currency.
The national currency index fell back to around 72, and the stock market returned to 13000 points. Investors were enthusiastic, and money continued to flow into bank stocks and financial products. "
After that, Michelle pursed her lips and added cautiously: "But the short-term debt pressure of the Hegemony continues to increase, and the expected debt by the end of the year has reached a terrifying 40 trillion Hegemony currency!
If the Fed’s interest rate is still 10% by then, the interest on short-term debt alone will be enough to overwhelm the hegemony…”
Solomon waved his hand indifferently: "No need to say more. Keep raising interest rates!"
If we can't defeat Chen Mo in this short-selling war, there will be no future.
If we win this short-selling war, we can still find other ways to solve the problem of debt default.
Solomon once learned a Daxia idiom called "drinking poison to quench thirst."
Now he finally understood what this sentence meant.
Knowing that a 10% interest rate hike is poison, he has to drink it with his nose pinched.
Just then, there was a chaotic sound of footsteps outside the office.
Soon, a staff member came in and reported: "Boss, Mr. Bill Geci, the representative of Guigu IT Company, Mr. Brett Kraus, the president of Mogen Bank, the representative of the banking circle, and Mr. Joey Powell, the president of the General Association of Hegemony Workers, want to see you."
Solomon suddenly felt an ominous premonition in his heart.
Why do I want to see him at this point in time?
Come to think of it...I'm afraid it's not a good thing!
"Tell them I'm sick and can't see anyone for the time being."
"it is good."
The staff came up to the three people and politely conveyed Solomon's meaning.
"Today, we must meet Mr. Rothschild!"
"This is a serious matter. We must see him even if he is sick!"
"Why is he pretending? The union can't even collect the money now, and the unemployment rate among the workers is so high. I'm not even sick, but he's still pretending?"
The most grumpy union president suddenly jumped up and shouted loudly: "Solomon!!! Solomon!!! I know you are in there!!! Come out and see us!!!"
Joey is a typical redneck and has served in the army. He is strong and nearly 2 meters tall, like a bear.
The staff couldn't stop him at all and could only let him rush forward and break open Solomon's office door.
When he saw Joey, Solomon's mouth twitched.
"You're fine here, aren't you? Why did you lie to us and say you were sick?"
Joey said indignantly.
At this time, Bill Geci and Brett Krause also followed in. The moment they saw Solomon, they knew that he was pretending to be sick.
"Mr. Rothschild, we are here to ask you for something important."
Bill Geci immediately said: "If our technology companies lose the world's most advanced chip technology, we will lose our competitiveness!
If you don’t stop the high-tech sanctions against Daxia now in exchange for their forgiveness, it won’t be long before our technology companies will fall behind in the world!!!”
Brett Kraus followed up by saying, “Don’t raise interest rates, banks can’t bear it! Now all the money in the country is spinning in banks. Not only are companies not taking out loans, they are also closing down and putting the money they originally used for business in banks to earn interest.
10% interest! This is forcing us to go bankrupt!!!"
