Chapter 280 Infinitely Proliferating Alien Cells
Su Xin's words caused a sensation all over the world.
High-level officials from all countries fell silent.
Yingjiangguo felt even more chilled in his heart.
Currency is one of the three most important cornerstones for China to maintain its global hegemony, and it is even the core and most unshakable fundamentals.
What is currency?
To use a popular metaphor, if every country is a large supermarket, then the currency is the shopping coupons issued by the supermarket.
The shopping voucher itself has no value. What mainly depends on the reputation of each supermarket is the reputation of each supermarket. With the shopping voucher issued by which supermarket, you can exchange it for various products in that supermarket.
Normally, the shopping coupons issued by various supermarkets can only be used by oneself. Otherwise, why should I exchange a piece of waste paper printed by other supermarkets for precious products in my supermarket?
However, in the era of economic globalization, the products in various supermarkets must be interchangeable.
What to do?
You have to find a suitable anchor.
This anchor must be an indispensable and important product in every supermarket.
The anchor once was gold.
Then came oil.
As long as you hold oil, you can exchange it for something in any supermarket, because this thing is important to everyone and everyone is willing to exchange it.
But as a physical object, oil cannot be used as a medium of transaction like currency. That would be too troublesome and has various shortcomings.
So, one day, the Eagle Country reached an agreement with the major oil-producing countries, and pushed the major oil-producing countries to establish cooperative organizations, establishing a situation in which global oil trade would be settled in Eagle dollars.
From then on, Yingyuan was completely tied to oil.
If you want oil, you have to exchange it for eagle dollars.
If the oil trade has kidnapped the world.
Then, Eagle Dollar is equivalent to indirectly kidnapping the world by kidnapping the oil trade and becoming the world's common currency.
It is equivalent to a global shopping voucher, which can be exchanged for any other shopping vouchers and can be used to purchase goods at other supermarkets.
This means that as long as the Eagle Country prints and distributes shopping coupons unlimitedly, it can harvest products from other supermarkets indefinitely, which means harvesting the resources of various countries.
The food we have worked so hard to grow, the products we have manufactured, and the resources we have mined can be exchanged for the national seal of Eagle Sauce with a piece of green paper.
This is monetary hegemony.
With currency hegemony, they can harvest the whole world with currency, which is equivalent to the whole world bearing seigniorage for the Eagle Dollar. They can harvest wealth anywhere in the world as long as they turn on the money printing press.
Even if technology is now crushed by the Dragon Kingdom and the military has no obvious advantage, they still have a very high status in the world, which can be said to be relying on their status as currency hegemon.
The most important thing is that basically no one can shake this currency’s dominance.
Because the Eagle Sauce Country has been deeply tied to the world's economy through the Eagle Yuan, once this connection is forcibly stripped away, the world economy will be violently turbulent.
Therefore, even if many parties have been suffering for a long time, they dare not try to get rid of this binding relationship.
To put it bluntly.
If the Eagle Country really gets desperate and prints money like crazy, causing the value of the Eagle Dollar to collapse, then the existing global trading system will completely collapse, which will lead to the global economy being plunged into an abyss of no return.
Yingyuan is the economic trump card of Yingjiang Country.
It's also their trump card that can turn the tables.
And now.
Su Xin wants to touch their roots!
Take their lives!
In a certain office.
The faces of several senior officials of Yingjiang Country who were watching the live broadcast changed wildly, and they roared hysterically:
"Are you kidding me? A company? And a country, want to join forces to formulate global currency rules? This is simply a dream!"
"Su Xin is crazy!"
“Isn’t he afraid of a global economic collapse?”
"How could he forcefully change global monetary policy on his own?"
"He is asking for death!"
"Currency is a symbol of credit and a reflection of national strength. Why should he trust..."
Several people cursed crazily.
But after cursing, he fell silent.
They thought that Yingyuan was also issued by a private company and could still be circulated globally. Whether it was reputation or capital, Su Xin was not bad at all.
Moreover, their Eagle Yuan is circulated globally because it is bound to oil.
Oil is an indispensable product for all countries and can serve as an anchor, so why can't Tianqi Group's products do the same?
Countries are also inseparable from Tianqi Group.
Who can not buy things from Tianqi Group?
Who can not sell things to Tianqi Group?
Who can refuse cooperation with Tianqi Group?
In all these transactions, Tianqi Group is basically in a strong position. After they announced that they would only accept credit coins, if everyone wanted to continue cooperation, they could only take credit coins.
In particular, Tianqi Group's tentacles have already penetrated into all walks of life and corners of the world. Their assets are countless, and the share of transactions they are involved in is even more exaggerated.
Much larger than global oil trading share.
certainly.
Tianqi Group's products are all industrialized products and cannot really serve as a global currency anchor like energy materials such as oil.
However, this policy of Tianqi Group is enough to forcefully promote the large-scale circulation of credit coins.
As for whether the value of credit coins can be stable, it depends on the specific monetary policy.
in video.
Su Xin seemed unaware of the reactions of various countries, his expression remained calm and solemn:
"I know that many people are watching this live broadcast, including senior officials from various countries and various oil-producing countries."
"The reason why I held this global live broadcast speech is not only to announce this policy to the world, but also to remind everyone——"
"Times have changed, and there have to be new rules."
"I hope that oil can also be traded with credit coins in the future, and the Eagle Dollar is no longer useful."
"I might as well say it directly, Yingjiang Country cannot protect you, nor can it threaten you. Your previous agreement can be voided directly."
“I hereby sincerely invite all countries to join the Blue Star Currency Alliance and access the credit currency trading system.”
"I guarantee on my honor that the issuance of credit coins is not to control monetary hegemony, but to promote global business development and resource exchange and further deepen cooperation among all parties."
"I also promise to balance the interests of all parties, ensure fairness as much as possible, allow credit coins to replace existing currencies as smoothly as possible, and adopt various policies to reduce the impact on the economy."
"at the same time……"
"I also solemnly warn certain groups that the implementation of credit coins is imperative and cannot be stopped by anyone or any group. Otherwise, I will use all means to attack, including but not limited to economic attacks and force attacks."
"If anyone thinks my behavior is too overbearing, then think carefully about what happened a few days ago and think about the threat of aliens."
"In extraordinary times, extraordinary measures must be taken."
"The all-round integration of Blue Star is an inevitable trend that no one can stop. It is also the basis for our resistance to alien invasion, and it is also the premise for me to protect Blue Star at all costs."
Su Xin's words aroused crazy discussions among the people, and all countries urgently discussed it.
And after Su Xin's live broadcast ended.
Issued invitations to some major countries to join the alliance and proposed to explore cooperation matters.
There are general plans for some systems of credit coins.
The reason why Su Xin directly announced it to the world first was to give everyone a warning first, so that everyone would be more willing to cooperate and the subsequent negotiations would be smoother.
as expected.
After receiving the invitation, everyone agreed to join the Blue Star Currency Alliance and agreed to discuss specific cooperation plans together.
Eagle Sauce Country also agreed.
I have no choice but to agree.
Economically, militarily, technologically, and popularly, they are completely at a disadvantage in all aspects.
Unless they want to annihilate themselves from Blue Star.
…
A week later.
In a large conference hall.
Representatives from White Bear Country, Eagle Sauce Country, Beer Country, Romance Country, and more than a hundred other countries jointly held a press conference to announce their joining the Blue Star Monetary Union.
A series of policies and regulations regarding the credit currency, as well as the exchange plan and ratio between the credit currency and the currencies of existing countries, as well as the general promotion plan and process of the credit currency, are all announced in detail.
For a time, the whole world was shocked.
…
After watching the press conference, Su Xin returned to his laboratory.
The replacement of global currencies is by no means a simple matter. The market will take a long time to adapt, and the economy will also experience certain fluctuations.
Therefore, Su Xin will not promote other policies in the short term and can only do them one by one.
His most important task now is the research and development of biological armor.
"Put the No. 5 cell tissue into the culture tank."
Su Xin gave the order and continued to study other groups of cell tissues.
A researcher immediately followed his instructions and placed a small dark green meat piece into a glass culture jar.
The culture tank is about the size of a basketball and is mostly filled with translucent nutrient solution.
The dark red meat is made from cells extracted from the alien's body scales and carefully cultured.
If the scale armor is equivalent to a layer of special metal armor on the alien's body, then this mass of dark red meat is equivalent to a metal block made of this special metal.
Although the material is the same, the defense capabilities of the two are not at the same level at all.
After the dark green meat piece was put into the nutrient solution, it quickly absorbed nutrients, began to proliferate and expand at a speed visible to the naked eye, and soon turned into an irregular and ugly ball of meat.
The meat pieces stop multiplying until the nutrient solution in the culture tank is exhausted.
At this time, the piece of meat has changed from the size of a fingertip to occupying half of the space in the culture tank, which is about the size of half a basketball.
"Mr. Su, the training has been completed."
The researcher warned carefully.
"Okay, check the values."
Su Xin turned around and took a look, then ordered calmly.
The first step in the development of biological warfare armor is to combine alien Iris cells with cancer cells so that they can self-proliferate indefinitely.
This step is not difficult for Su Xin.
It has been successful several times before.
But what Su Xin wants to do is to ensure that the cell tissue has sufficient strength and toughness, so as to ensure the amplification effect of the biological armor.
It also needs to have a fast enough proliferation rate to ensure that it can transform quickly enough during combat.
Ten minutes later.
The test data is out.
The strength and toughness of this mass of cell tissue has reached a level comparable to that of aliens.
This also means that as long as this kind of cell tissue is used as biological armor, and the thickness is no worse than the scales on the alien body, it can have defense capabilities that are no less than those of aliens.
It can ignore the bullets of ordinary firearms and the swords wielded by ordinary people, and has an indestructible body in the conventional sense.
Of course, this only reaches the basis of the physical strength of biological armor, and does not mean that biological armor technology has been successful.
It should be said that it is still far away.
