Chapter 2843: Disintegrating the Enemy from Within
Brett Krauss called together the presidents of the top ten banks and told them what had happened today.
"We now have two ways to exert pressure. One is to directly unilaterally reduce interest rates, whether it is loan interest rates or deposit interest rates, to a reasonable number, ignoring the Fed's interest rate hike regulations.
But doing so would involve certain risks.
Solomon is going crazy now, he might arrest us and force us to continue raising interest rates."
As soon as he finished speaking, someone immediately stood up to object, saying, "Don't consider this method. In the past, a bank in Sakura Country couldn't survive and resisted the Federal Reserve's interest rate hike. As a result, the local prosecutor's office and the soldiers from the country joined forces to arrest people.
Those who disobey must die!
We still have to consider our own lives."
Everyone agreed, thinking that they should not confront the authorities head-on, after all, they themselves were part of the officialdom.
Brett Kraus nodded and said, "Then we will adopt the second method. We will collectively issue a bankruptcy notice and let the government pay the debts that are about to mature.
If they don't pay, we go bankrupt.
The ten largest banks are all bankrupt. I wonder how Solomon can fight Chen Mo!"
When these words were spoken, everyone was shocked.
This method is really bold!
The top ten banks control 80% of the country's deposits!
If they all go bankrupt, wouldn't that be equivalent to announcing to the outside world that the hegemonic country is also about to go bankrupt?
In this situation, it would be easy for Chen Mo to short sell!
But... you can imagine how risky it is to do so!
"Is this... really good?"
"Yes, if we declare bankruptcy, it will be difficult for us to restore our reputation!"
"If Solomon doesn't care about us, will we really go bankrupt?"
"..."
Brett Krauss slammed the table in frustration and said, "What the hell time is it! Are you still hesitating?
Do you think we can survive without doing this?
If we continue to raise interest rates, we will really go bankrupt!
What good is your good credit when you go bankrupt?"
After a long silence, someone raised his hand to show his agreement.
Then, the second pair of hands, the third pair of hands... the tenth pair of hands!
Passed unanimously!
Brett Kraus waved his hand with a serious expression: "Everyone go back and prepare, and ask the publicity department to cooperate in issuing announcements at any time."
After everyone leaves.
Brett Kraus slumped in his chair, as if all his strength had been drained from him.
The top ten banks that were once so powerful that even the emperors of various countries had to make an appointment before coming! !
Now it has even reached the point where it has to pretend to be bankrupt and make demands on the authorities.
Brett Krauss pinched his frowning brows and sighed: "This is the fall of the empire..."
The headquarters of the Hegemonic Workers' Association.
After Joey Powell came back angrily, a group of redneck executives immediately surrounded him and asked impatiently: "President, did you get the money?"
"Did Solomon agree to our request?"
"When can we pay this year's dues?"
Joey Powell opened a bottle of cold beer, took a few gulps, and then slammed the beer on the table: "Fuck! Solomon, the son of the beach!
We workers are having a hard time, but he only cares about his own interests and refuses to let go!
Not only did they not agree to any of our requests, they also kicked us out!"
When a group of redneck executives heard this, they were all furious!
“March!!! We must march!!!”
"Demonstrate, gather all workers to demonstrate!!!"
"I quit. Let's go on strike and shut down all the factories!!!"
Parades, demonstrations and strikes are the three main tactics of the workers' association.
Relying on these three tactics, the workers' association was almost invincible and forced many companies to give in.
“Solomon’s attitude is very firm this time. I’m afraid that just demonstrations will not be enough to make him care.
And now the unemployment rate is so high that the workers who are still employed dare not strike for fear of losing their jobs.”
Joey shook his head and sighed, "It's difficult!"
Just then, someone came in and reported, "President, a man named Tyr wants to see you. He said he has a way to help us."
Joey had never heard of and didn't even know anyone named Tyr.
But he didn't have any good solution anyway, so he waved his hand: "Let him come in to see me."
Tyr is the head of the "Parents' Association" hegemony.
Jiang Pengyue specially sent him to take action this time, hoping to make this happen.
After arriving at the office, Till sat down carelessly and said straight to the point: "I'm welcome, Mr. Powell, I know you are having a headache because the Workers' Association can't collect money.
I have a way to fix this.”
Joey Powell likes people who speak directly and frankly. He hates people who are polite for a long time but never get to the point.
"Then tell me about it!"
Thiel immediately said: "It's simple, demonstrations and strikes."
Joey rolled his eyes immediately: "Do I need you to teach me this? We have been using these three moves for decades, and many old people are very skilled at them!"
Tyr chuckled and said, "No, no, no, although it is still a demonstration and a strike, the nature is different.
We have persuaded thousands of white-collar elites to join our event.
And... this time the parade will be held at the foundation's home - Huaer Street!"
Joey's forehead broke out in sweat when he heard this: "What are you trying to do?"
Normally, demonstrations can be held in factories, docks, or in some ordinary streets. After all, it is a legal act in the hegemonic country.
But where is Huaer Street?
The location of the most advanced capital in the entire country!
The Foundation's Lair!!!
Even in this battle between Solomon and Chen Mo, the main forces of the bulls were almost all in Huaer Street!!!
If we send so many people over at this time, wouldn't that be tantamount to putting a knife to the neck of capital and threatening it?
In a hegemonic country, disturbing the lifeline of capital is more serious than rebellion!!!
"What do you want to do? We are going to occupy Huaer Street!!!"
The Tyrian language is shocking!
The five words "Occupy Huaer Street" were like a bolt from the blue, making his head buzz!
No matter how bold he was, even if he was a redneck, he never dared to think about it in this regard.
Flower Street?
The foundation's base!!!
The Rothschild family's financial industries are all there!!!
The many parties fighting against Chen Mo are also there!!!
Joey swallowed and said, "Isn't this... a bit too much?"
Tyr sneered, "What? You don't dare?"
"It's not that I don't dare, it's just..."
"I can tell you responsibly that unless we unite and occupy Huaer Street, we can force Solomon to take back his order.
Otherwise, the workers' association may not have any income for a year!"
Tyr interrupted directly.
Joey was silent.
He certainly couldn't accept the workers' association having no income for a year.
Of course, having no income is not the most terrible thing.
If the workers' association fails to help solve the workers' employment problems and loses its credibility, then even if the economy improves in the future, who will be willing to pay membership fees?
This means the workers' association is abolished!
