From Cannon Fodder to Sweeping Across Thousands of Stars

Chapter 446: Space Casting Jingguan

For the military-industrial complex, this week has definitely been the toughest it has ever been.

Since the opening of the stock market on Monday, when BOCHI Heavy Industries was "killed" by Atlas, and when the "Combined Fleet fiasco" and black materials about BOCHI Heavy Industries and the military-industrial complex were revealed, the situation has begun to break away. Paris and others are in control.

Atlas Group not only made rapid attacks on the financial market, but also moved extremely quickly in occupying the public opinion position. An overwhelming amount of news and revelations took advantage of Atlas's advantages in communication networks and swept across like a tsunami. All public platforms of the Federation.

Even the Empire, which is currently at war with the Federation, is no exception. With the expansion of communication services, it has also promoted a wave of publicity, and eventually it has become the most popular talking point these days among the old and young men of the 'Old Saint-Saunière Zhengxinglongqi' .

According to what Amber said at the internal meeting, you must be quick, accurate and ruthless to occupy the position of public opinion. Especially in the public opinion war, the advantage of being first is too great, because the other party is likely to become passive in order to respond, and eventually be led by the nose. , unable to make an effective counterattack at all.

To a certain extent, just like the relationship between 'rumor-making' and 'rumor-refutation', the cost of rumor-mongering is too low, while the difficulty of refuting rumors is countless times higher, and it is also very likely to fall into the 'self-verification trap' '.

What's more, the bullets Atlas fired in the public opinion war are not 'rumors'. Instead, they are all true, especially the black information about the military-industrial complex provided by Van Fleet, which is even more ridiculous. Fire and gunfire really hurt.

The most popular picture on the Internet right now is a space photography officially released by Atlas.

The main subject of this photo is the huge A. Bawa Ku asteroid fortress, and the caption of the picture is: "A. Bawa Ku, our home."

It seems that Atlas Group is promoting their strength, or flexing their muscles.

But 'careful viewers' will see a 'matrix' composed of a large number of battleship wreckage fragments in the lower right corner of the photo, and the selection of these fragments is also very 'heartwarming', as they are all selected from each ship. The company's logo was sprayed on the battleship, and the largest logo on the side was chosen as much as possible, for fear that others would not be able to see it clearly.

Soon, everyone’s focus was placed on this ‘space view’.

Someone with good intentions identified the logos on each piece of wreckage and made a table listing the names and brief introductions of these companies.

For these companies in the military-industrial complex, this is undoubtedly a 'pillar of shame', but what makes them even more scratching their heads is that they have not been able to do anything about this 'pillar of shame'.

If we form a temporary fleet and rush over to dismantle the Pillar of Shame, the final outcome will probably be that Atlas builds a second 'Space Beijing'.

In this case, each company can only make a public statement, saying that Atlas Group is deliberately discrediting their corporate image by spreading fake photos and videos, and at the same time stressing that they will take all possible measures. means to safeguard their own rights and interests.

The scene of more than a dozen of the world's giant companies issuing these statements at the same time was quite spectacular. Many people who did not know the truth also began to wonder whether all this was directed and staged by Atlas under the guidance of their public opinion.

At the same time, with the help of some corporate mouthpieces and KOLs, Atlas Group's background from the Thousand Stars Empire was once again brought to the forefront, and it quickly evolved into an "evil giant from the Thousand Stars Empire, which is unscrupulously attacking Attack the federal local patriotic enterprises!" Such remarks.

Such a topic obviously can arouse the enthusiasm of some "patriotic people". For a time, there were more voices supporting Nutao Group, Deep Space Mining and other companies in the public opinion field.

For such a counterattack, Atlas' response is also very simple.

First of all, the 'Real Eye' opened a 24-hour live broadcast room. The live broadcast content was to insert a probe in front of the 'Space Beijing', and then directly cut to the optical sensor of the probe, just like that. The photo was taken with the "Space Beijing View" in mind, and the Nutao Group's LOGO was specially placed in the "C position".

Immediately afterwards, Atlas Group officially announced the specific coordinates of the "Space Beijing View", and all interested people are welcome to explore on their own.

And no matter who comes to explore, they will get souvenirs made from the wreckage of the battleship, and they said that if more people come, they can consider opening a 'tourist line'.

"Everyone is watching our joke, everyone! Including those imperial dogs, they might be hiding in their dark and dilapidated castle to have fun!"

In a private club not open to the public, Mrs. Paris, who was wearing a gorgeous dress, no longer had the elegance, calmness and calmness she had before.

However, other people around them also expressed their understanding of Mrs. Paris's gaffe and did not say anything. After all, if their corporate LOGO was placed in the most conspicuous position of the "Space Beijing" and publicly executed, their reaction might be Bigger than the always calm Mrs. Paris

"We are losing ground in the public opinion field and the securities market. Three consecutive capital injection rescue operations have failed. In this week, 13 companies have been delisted by them, 4 companies have declared bankruptcy, and we have burned nearly 10 billion in vain. Credit points.”

Mrs. Pallas paused, and a trace of hatred flashed in her eyes. In addition to the reasons guessed by others, the more important thing is that two of the four companies that declared bankruptcy were actually secretly controlled by her.

"We can't let the situation deteriorate like this. Now it's time to fight back. Since Atlas wants to fight with us in the capital market, then we will satisfy the wishes of this "bold man." "

"I agree with Mrs. Paris's point of view." Hamilton, the actual controller of Deep Space Mining, said:

"The capital market is our home court. The previous failure of the joint fleet did make us pay the price for underestimating the enemy and being reckless, but if the battlefield comes to the capital market now, I believe we can definitely teach Atlas a good lesson, and then take back everything we lost!!!"

The voice was very passionate and the content was very passionate, but unfortunately there were very few people around who responded. It was obvious that under the high-intensity attack of Atlas in the past week, some people in the military-industrial complex had begun to be afraid.

Seeing this, Mrs. Paris narrowed her eyes and swept across the faces of the people around her with ill intent. Her sharp eyes made many people avoid her sight awkwardly.

"Why, are you scared now? So you plan to just wash your neck and wait for death?"

"That's not the case, Mrs. Paris." In the eyes of the crowd, a middle-aged man who was obviously pushed to speak for the representative stood up.

"It's just that we don't seem to have a strong enough chance to fight back now. The Atlas Group is not listed on the federal securities market at all. These days, the encirclement and suppression are launched by a large number of short-selling institutions, hedge funds and a large number of retail investors.

This also means that the Atlas Group has been hiding behind the scenes from beginning to end. Even if we know that these forces participating in the encirclement and suppression may be controlled by Atlas, what can we do? We can only passively defend and counterattack, and there is no chance to take the initiative to attack."

As the middle-aged man around explained, the others around also nodded in agreement. It was obvious that this was their unified understanding, and the middle-aged man continued:

"Everyone has seen the stock market situation this week. I believe that the information in your hands, Mrs. Paris, is more accurate than all of us. Atlas has made a lot of profits while defeating a large number of our allies. Obviously, these profits will be used as "ammunition" against the rest of us.

In this case, I have to be frank, but I find it hard to believe what Mr. Hamilton said, that we can teach Atlas a good lesson."

When the middle-aged man finished speaking, the whole room fell into silence. Some people looked at each other, some bowed their heads and remained silent, and some people silently observed the expressions of others. Obviously, everyone had different plans in their hearts.

"Then you go, Mr. Jess of Quiet Technology, we don't force you to stand with us to face all this."

Mrs. Paris suddenly spoke up, breaking the silence, and many people looked at her in surprise. They didn't expect Paris, a woman who was not easy to deal with, to be so easy to talk to this time.

Some people even began to think, why not withdraw from this conflict like Quiet Technology, and then find a way to reach a settlement with Atlas, at least to keep themselves alive.

But Mrs. Paris's next words calmed down these people who were ready to make a move.

"However, I still remind you that once you walk out of this door today, you will no longer be a member of our circle, and naturally you will not be our "ally". No matter what crisis your company encounters in the future, we will no longer help you. Do you understand?"

Mrs. Paris's words seemed to be correct at first, but other people who knew her immediately heard the subtext hidden in her words - no longer an ally, then an enemy. At this juncture, the military-industrial complex does not mind using quiet technology to "recover blood".

The middle-aged man called "Mr. Jess" clenched his fists at this moment.

But after a moment, he calmed down and finally sat back in his seat and stopped talking.

"Very good, a wise choice~"

Mrs. Paris smiled, picked up a glass of champagne and drank it all, then continued:

"At this critical moment, I hope everyone can unite. As long as we can make a fist, I believe we will have the last laugh."
