I Have a Mansion in the Post-apocalyptic World - Chapter 981
Chapter 981 – Enterprise Dictatorship
The problem of the spacecraft was easy to resolve. In addition to the four Stingray P-1s already being delivered to Future Mining, the Stingray X-1 prototypes built by Future Heavy Industries and Celestial-duty X-1 prototypes entered the delivery phase. By selecting a Stingray X-1 and adding an attack module, it could be upgraded to a Stingray A-1 with outer space combat capabilities.
At present, Celestial Trade trained a total of 20 Stingray series spacecraft pilots, all of whom received training for the three models. The problem now was choosing one volunteer from the 20 people.
As Kelvin said, there was a high probability that this would be a death flight without a return trip. If the remaining energy at the time of return wasn?t enough to accelerate the spacecraft to a position close to the Earth-Moon system, it might be difficult to retrieve the spacecraft with existing technology.
Although it was important to determine what the UFO was, it was impossible for Jiang Chen to spend all of his time in boundless space.
The volunteer selection and psychological work were handed over to Kelvin. After receiving the guarantee of completion of the task, Jiang Chen shifted the focus of his work to the European issue.
?As of mid-February, 317 high-ranking European officials have died in various accidents. All the clues pointed to one source
? they were all opponents of EU integration.? Here, Monica Galle stood before Jiang Chen?s desk, her head bowed down. ?I?m very sorry, we have been misled. Before the EU integration resolution vote, we thought this was the Rothschild consortium?s plan to implement the Southern Corridor.?
?Please raise your head; don?t blame yourself too much. You are not to blame. After all, all of our energy has been focused on Russia?s plan.? After all, European?s Ghost Agents? full cooperation with the KGB to assist the coup in Frankberg was his personal order.
Watching Monica raise her head high, Jiang Chen tapped his finger then said, ?The situation in Europe is now out of our control, but it?s not to an irreparable point. You will return to Europe tomorrow. I need you to do something…?
Monica nodded, her expression solemn.
?It will be my duty.?
The Commercial Bank Headquarters, the headquarters of the Frankberg Commercial Bank, was the tallest skyscraper in the country. It had been the tallest building since it was completed in 1997 and was the tallest building in Europe until 2003.
As one of the three largest banks in the country, few people know that the name ?Rothschild? was at the top of its list of shareholders.
At 8:00 pm Berlin time, the building was decorated with lights.
In the empty top-floor conference room, Carmen Rothschild stood by the floor-to-ceiling window, holding the red wine produced by his own winery, quietly watching the bustling night.
Just then, a slightly short and obsessive Germanic man opened the door and walked in.
?Wait for me outside.?
The bodyguard behind the Germanic man nodded, stepping back halfway and standing at the door.
The door was closed. The Caucasian bodyguard with sunglasses and a black suit turned sideways slightly and looked at the black man standing on the other side of the door.
?Hello,? Johnson said hello to him in French as he smiled.
The white bodyguard didn?t respond to him. He looked straight ahead and stood still.
Johnson licked the corners of his mouth and didn?t pay more attention to him. He continued to stand guard.
But the expression between his eyebrows gradually returned to the previous coldness.
Carmen turned around, smiled, opened his arms and greeted the Germanic man.
?Welcome, Glen Krupp, my old friend. We meet again.?
?Yes, we meet again.? Glen Krupp forced a smile and hugged Carmen, hiding the dissatisfaction in his mind. Then he put his coat on the chair. ?Can you explain something to your old friend? What do you or the Rothschild family want to do??
Unlike the Jewish family that emerged from the United Kingdom, the Krupp family, born in the traditional Prussian aristocracy, was tied to the German chariot along with the invincible artillery. The family with their influence in arms, steel, ships, textiles, chemicals, oil refining, electromechanics, and even elevators in buildings, was almost integrated into every corner of Europe.
They might not be as rich as the Rothschild family, but they weren?t inferior to the Jewish family.
Carmen saw through the concern on Glen?s face. He coughed and placed the red wine on the conference table.
?If a company controls the food, medical care, water supply, power supply, light and heavy industries, national defense, and even the military in a region, what?s the difference between this enterprise and the country in the region? Or what?s the difference between the existence of this country? You know very well. I just did the right thing.?
Glen Krupp sneered.
?We?re most worried about this point. Whenever our old friends think they?re right, all of us might be in trouble.?
The pasts of the Rothschild family and the Krupp family shared a very similar point. That is?they used to support a certain demon, and they were almost sent to hell by that very demon. The Rothschilds once lost all of Europe, and the Prussian aristocracy suffered in the hands of the national guards.
In history, every madman trying to unify Europe had brought disaster to the whole world.
Through bloody means, the Rothschild family forced the adoption of the EU Integration Act at the EU meeting in an attempt to turn the entire EU into a country then chose a puppet while controlling them behind the scenes.
Not only the Krupp family, but all the Level 33 members of the Freemasonry felt a little uneasy about The Rothschilds? behavior.
?My dear friend, please listen to me first,? Carmen said as he smiled.
?I will give you half an hour,? Glen Krupp said coldly as he looked down at the watch.
Carmen shrugged, looking nonchalant.
After clearing his throat, he paused for a while then began to speak.
?People are economic animals. People can?t live without money, and our society is the same.?
?The speed of social development depends on the flow of money. If society is compared to human beings, then money is its blood. Throughout the history of the world, countless revolutions were just mere attempts to overthrow those blood clouts in the blood vessels of civilization.?
?We chose a puppet, and we stood behind the scenes, manipulating this puppet. We will be more democratic than ever. More advanced than ever! We no longer manipulate the elections; we directly manipulate the candidates, and at the same time, our president no longer enjoys the power that the president deserves.?
?This new regime, I call it enterprise dictatorship!?
?Why do I feel this was copied from somewhere?? Glen sneered.
?I have to admit that our opponents inspired me,? Carmen said with a smile. ?Although we also manipulate politics, they?re more absolute than us. But I am discussing us, not them.?
Carmen pointed to his own chest and pointed to the ring on his hand that symbolized the Level 33 member then he said, ?Dysfunctional subsidiaries will be reorganized, turning losses into profits and revitalizing in the restructuring process. The EU is the same, and the restructured EU will be more efficient and stronger than ever.?
?And you, me, and the newly established 13-member committee will serve as the ?shareholders? of the entire EU.?
