"Is there anything important enough to interrupt my meeting?"

The president of Baylor Federation was standing in the lounge. Just now his chief of staff interrupted his conversation with several international affairs research experts, which made him feel that he was an impolite person. At this time, his tone was naturally not pleasant.

The chief of staff smiled bitterly and sighed, "Mr. President, the bond problem has been exposed. What should we do next?"

Originally, the president of Baylor Federation still had some impatience on his face, but when he heard the news, he immediately became nervous.

In the period before the end of the world war, war bonds had always been his proud political skill. By purchasing War State bonds, an alternative method of paying protection fees, the war did not spread to the Baylor Federation.

And after the war, these bonds can also realize a lot of wealth. He believes that this is definitely the brightest policy in his political career. At that time, when he publicized this concept, he used "we do not participate in the war, but enjoy the fruits of the victorious country" as the slogan, which won the hearts of the people..

Recently, he has been trying to solve this problem. In fact, his pressure is not small, because banks and some financial institutions that can represent the national position to a certain extent are basically qualified to eat a large number of these bonds.

but

These groups are usually silent, but they control the fate of many people and are closely related to people's lives.

His original intention was to try to win over some neutral countries to form a rights alliance, and then solve the problem of some bonds. According to his anxiety, he would sort out the later things slowly.

He and his staff believe that difficulties are only a matter of time unless the victorious countries want to force them into the camp of the defeated countries.

Unexpectedly, he burst at this time. When he felt nervous, he was a little angry, "which fool did it?"

The chief of staff said the whole story. In fact, neither the president nor his cabinet, including his staff, thought that banks and financial institutions would transfer risks so shamelessly.

When they knew that those bonds were not much different from white paper, they scattered these bonds to financial companies, and heated up these foreign bonds through some operations, making ordinary people the main victims.

"This damn, greedy wild dog!" the president cursed a few words, and then he looked at his chief of staff solemnly, "you should discuss some countermeasures as soon as possible, and restrain the media and let them shut up. I don't want to stand at the press conference and be like a fool when I don't know how to solve these problems, okay?"

The president will spend millions of funds and countless invisible interests to maintain these staff groups every year. Now is the time to reflect their values. The chief of staff solemnly nodded, "I know what to do. We can take measures in 24 hours at most!"

The president's expression eased a little. He tidied up his collar and tie, turned and walked towards the conference room, "I hope next time we meet, you will give me good news as you said!"

Subsequently, the telephone call from the president's private office informed almost all mainstream and non mainstream media, even those charity magazines and advertisements. Now they are racing against time.

Even if we can't stop the sudden outbreak of the situation, we should discuss a really effective solution before the big bang.

But with some things, it can't be what people want after all.

Mainstream media such as the exchange, the federal times, Baylor daily and international news search did listen to the telephone requirements and arrangements of the president's private office and stopped the publication and printing of this news, but some tabloids did not.

Happy every week is such a newspaper. Its name actually has something to do with the content it publishes. Their purpose is to provide assistance to philanthropists who have money and are willing to help some girls.

There are always some people who need help, and some people are willing to help others. Such platforms are available in every state of the Federation, and everyone is used to them.

After all, recruitment is illegal in many states, but assistance is legal. Of course, newspapers will also get some intermediary fees, which is one of their main sources of income.

Traditionally, such charity newspapers have no connection with morality, ethics and current affairs, because they know that even if they publish these news, no one will read them.

Instead, readers will call and scold their operator for half an hour, and then tell the newspaper that if they can't see Naizi on the first page of the newspaper next week, they will never order their newspaper again, let alone dial their telephone service.

So no matter what happens outside, such newspapers are indifferent, but today, it's different.

"The vast majority of our customers are actually beneficiaries of financial transactions!"

In the office of the president of the newspaper, the chief editor, the chief school and all the chief editors gather here. Although the newspaper is small and the content is special, it should have some.

The president sat in his chair with a pipe in his mouth and took two puffs. "If there is a financial crisis, our customers will not have much money, and we will become poor because our customers become poor."

"No one ordered newspapers, no one called the hotline, no one gave us intermediary fees, so we want to publish this news to remind our customers and let them try to recover their losses!"

At this time, the chief editor couldn't help but interrupt and say, "but the president's office asked us not to report the news."

The president nodded, "that's true, but so what?"

He looked at the people in the office and said indifferently, "behind those big newspapers are either consortia or politicians. They want to listen to their dog owners. Their dog owners will give them a meat bone, and behind us are only those customers."

"Without customers, what do we eat and drink, and what do those girls eat and drink?"

"When we are about to go bankrupt, do you think Mr. President and those consortia will save us?"

The president shook his head. "No, only our customers can fill our stomachs. Listen to me and start the machine immediately." he paused and said what people want to hear. "Even if we really want to settle, I will carry it alone!"

Soon, the supplement of "happy every week" began to be released. Generally, the supplement will be issued only when there are big things. For example, some new girls need relief, or some adult production companies are going to sell some large-scale films.

This also made many subscribers curious. Soon, the additional newspapers sold out in only one night, and sellers everywhere called to ask for updates.

This move also led more newspapers and media to report the news. Anyway, they just followed suit, and only the first one was unlucky.

It was only one night that everyone in the whole Federation knew about it.

Banks refuse to cash the desired overseas bonds, and overseas issuing countries also refuse to cash the bonds in people's hands. The bonds that people have spent tens of thousands of dollars are now like waste paper!

What's more terrible is that many people, like Frank, applied for and invested this part of the money in bond trading as soon as their personal credit loan was issued.

The situation was out of control. As the core of the storm, frank and his agent may not realize that what they opened was not a scar, but a direct puncture of the main artery.

The next morning, at about nine o'clock, there was a lot of noise outside a single family mansion, and even a siren.

Frankton woke up after sleeping in a comfortable sofa all night. This sofa is too comfortable and more comfortable than his bed. This is the value of money.

His brain was still a little dull. He went to the window and looked out. Suddenly, all his sleepiness flew out of his body.

A large number of police gathered outside the house, and there were armed police and some people obviously belonging to the army. He cursed and retracted his head behind the window.

Damn agent, he must have called the police. In fact, Frank already had this feeling when the agent didn't come back last night, but he was still waiting, waiting for a hope, or the agent's calling the police was also one of his plans.

If the broker really can't cash those bonds, this will become a crime scene. He has seen a lot of TV and movies with similar content.

When criminals take hostages, they can make some requests, such as asking reporters and the media to gather here, so that he can tell the reason for doing so.

At that time, the whole Federation is bound to be a sensation, and people will sympathize with him on his side. Even if he will go to prison in the future, at least his money will be saved.

This idea is indeed very constructive. At least it is basically impossible for an ordinary person to gather a large number of media, but it is easy for a criminal to do so.

But some things, especially the reality, do not necessarily follow the script of the film.

Just as Frank was waiting for the negotiators to shout in his bedroom, a special action team had begun to break the door. From the beginning, their purpose was very simple - to kill frank and shut him up.

Things have been punctured and irreparable, and Frank's life and death become indifferent. On the contrary, some people always have to breathe. A dead Frank can obviously meet the needs of some people.

From the beginning of the operation to the sound of gunfire, it lasted less than five minutes.

Finally, the captain of the action team reported the situation to the on-site commander with a cold face. He described a terrible thing in a regretful tone.

Frank fought tenaciously and tried to hurt the hostages with lethal weapons. In order to protect the safety of the hostages, they had to kill the kidnapper Frank who tried to commit murder on the spot.

The on-site commander raised his eyebrows, "that's a pity!"
