1543 Eve

At the board meeting, Lynch quickly made various arrangements, and the entire group's industry has made certain adjustments to cope with the war that will break out tomorrow!

This kind of adjustment is very important. Many people will feel that whether the war breaks out or not has little to do with the direction of the company.

In fact, this kind of understanding is very low-level, and the reason is very simple.

Anyone who does export business knows that most of the time, companies that place orders will require export companies to package the goods and transport them to the port designated by the other party for delivery.

The purpose of the companies dispatching the orders is actually not to take the initiative to bear any possible risks in transportation, but to transfer the risks to the export companies.

During the war, who knows whether the warships cruising on the sea belong to our own people or the enemy.

If you still follow the previous method, such as setting the delivery location at the port designated by the other party, you will bear too much risk!

These risks include all risks of product loss, and the cost is completely sunk.

And the risk of the other company filing a claim because they didn't receive the goods as stipulated in the contract, and you didn't deliver them either.

There are also expenses such as casualties caused during transportation and compensation provided by the company.

These risks are far from being compensated by the profits of a batch of products for export enterprises.

Another example is some manufacturing industries that rely on imported raw materials or rough-processed materials. There is a high possibility that the supply of raw materials will be interrupted during a war.

If factories do not have products that can quickly adjust their production, then they will first have to face unproduced raw materials, claims from the dispatching companies, and a lot of labor costs.

Therefore, once a war breaks out, companies must make various preparations in the shortest possible time.

Blackstone Group is a bit lucky. There are relatively few companies that rely on import and export. Maybe there are some peripheral companies.

For various reasons, some major shareholders cross-hold their company shares and group company shares in proportion.

In this way, they can obtain more shares while minimizing the use of their own liquidity. At the same time, because of their actions, the group company will have an impact on these peripheral companies.

And as the group companies continue to expand, their strength and power will gradually penetrate into these peripheral companies, turning them into part of the group.

When Mr. Wardrick left his original group of companies, in order to end it more quickly, he also gave up some of the shares that originally belonged to his company in exchange for the board of directors' maximum permission for him to do so.

This is also the most common way for capital to eat people. Before you know it, you will be eaten up by capital without even the dregs left.

One day you wake up, dress up and come to the company, thinking about how to develop and create brilliance in the future.

But the board of directors told you that you were fucking fired...

In the Federation, this kind of thing happens every day!

There are import and export companies among the peripheral companies of Blackstone Group. In view of Lynch's operating strategy, he also needs to issue a warning to these peripheral companies and tell them to change their business policies as soon as possible.

It’s not just Lynch who is doing it, many people are doing it, and everyone who does it knows that war is inevitable.

Including the officials of Marillo and their president!

Just as Lynch imagined, when the president learned that he only had twenty-four hours and his call to Mr. Trueman was rejected, he realized that war was inevitable.

Although he had been mentally prepared for it, at this moment, his body still couldn't stop trembling slightly.

He prayed to their gods, hoping that those great beings would listen to his humble and pious voice!

He hopes that he and his country and the people living here can survive this disaster!

"We should do something!"

The president's long daze made some people lose their composure. The person who spoke was a young man in his early thirties.

Sometimes the world is really unfair!

In almost all orderly societies, the vast majority of people in their early thirties may still be confused about the future.

Because they don't know how to face the future, nor how to choose between the gradually extinguishing dreams and the cruel reality.

But there are also some people who, by the time they are in their thirties, are already standing above 99.9% of the people in this world.

There is no way to describe them with the words "superior, superior, superior, superior, superior".

Just like this 30-year-old presidential adjutant, he is a student of the old president, and can be said to be the "disciple" of the current president. They have both inherited the ideas of the previous president.

Want to make this country rich and powerful.

He thought that everything would happen slowly and not be so nervous, but what he didn't expect was that the reaction of the federal people was so strong this time.

Until now, they don't know if this really happened.

They didn't know whether there was really a group of stowaways who attacked the patrol team on the border and caused heavy casualties.

They don't know anything. Twenty-four hours is not enough time for their investigation team to get from here to the border!

So everyone understood that the Federals never considered "talking" with them from the beginning, they just wanted war!

The president's eyes regained focus. He glanced at his adjutant and sighed softly, "What else can we do?"

"The warlords have never listened to us, and I don't think they would have listened to us even if we asked them something."

"They're probably already thinking about how to wave their tails at the Federals as a welcome gesture!"

"The only one we can rely on is ourselves!"

He didn't say the Pengeos, because the Pengeos were ultimately unreliable.

The adjutant's lips moved and he lowered his voice this time, but the question was still the same.

"Could it be that...we really don't do anything?"

In the face of such a big event, he felt that it would be really stupid to do nothing.

Whatever you do, you should do something!

The president thought for a while, "Then give them what they want..."

Before the adjutant could react, the president asked him to help draft the document.

Only people you trust will let the other person draft a draft for you. This is a sign of trust.

The President looked out the window and looked at the garden, which was getting warmer and showing the hint of spring. After pondering for a moment, he said

"After careful study and consideration, we decided to follow the wishes of my father, the former president."

"And in compliance with the results of the last time, the ownership of each area will be transferred to the local armed warlords..."

The adjutant's hand suddenly stopped in mid-air. He glanced at the president, whose eyes were a little cold and unfamiliar.

"Follow it as written!"

"Starting from today, warlords in various regions can establish their own military government agencies to exercise local administrative power instead of the Marillo government!"

"Including, but not limited to, managing local security, collecting local taxes, organizing production and planting..."

The president knows that even if he asks the warlords for help now, the warlords will ignore him.

In war, the most important thing is to hold the barrel of the gun in your hand.

Only with people and weapons can we feel safe.

Therefore, the president never considered from the beginning that these warlords could give up their prejudices and actively cooperate with the government.

Since they can't do this, give them a reason to fight, at least for themselves!

After this order came out of the presidential palace, it was basically equivalent to announcing that the Marillo government was on the countdown to its demise.

But he had to try, what if... it worked?

After saying all the words, he looked very tired and waved his hand, "Let's organize it. I want to give a national speech..."

Although Marillo does not have a wide coverage TV signal network, radio stations can still be found everywhere.

His speech will be broadcast through radio stations, ensuring nationwide coverage in a short time.

More than two hours later, he arrived at the highest broadcasting office of the Presidential Palace, where there is a radio station for the whole country.

Rarely used.

People don't care what the President or the Central Government of Marillo have to say who are far away from their lives. Those are too far away from them and have little connection with their lives.

The warlords don't like to hear it either, because no matter what policy adjustments the central government makes, it has nothing to do with them.

They will comply if they feel satisfied, for example, if they can get some money from the central government.

If they are dissatisfied, for example, if the tax rate is raised, they pretend not to know, and they don’t even pay the tax!

So it is rarely used.

The President sat in front of the microphone. He looked at the somewhat old microphone and cheered up.

A few minutes ago, his adjutant had made continuous announcements, so many people in Marillo had already adjusted the frequency.

He took a deep breath, "Good evening, everyone in Marillo."

"I am your president... and just now I was thinking about what I should say."

“As I sit here, I realize I don’t have that much to say!”

"I don't know you as much as you don't know me."

"Here we can't understand each other for various reasons. This is caused by history, time and other reasons."

"What we want to discuss today is not about these, but about our future!"

"Invasion from the Federation!"

"They've been thinking about invading us for a long time, ever since my father."

"They used to hide their faces, but now they don't."

"They gave me an impossible mission and then they would accuse us while they invade our country and occupy our territory."

"I never think anyone should do anything for anyone at the cost of their life."

"Whether you choose to flee here or fight for our country, it is your choice and no one can blame you."

"It's just that I hope you can be careful before you make a decision!"

"Whether you are leaving or going to resist them, please consider it carefully."

"Because we will never have the same opportunity to make such a choice again. After tomorrow, there will never be another chance!"

"I will stay here with those who fight for Marillo until the last moment!"
