    The Sis family's attack plan was small, after all, it was just a personal grudge.  For this ancient country, it would not have suffered such a heavy blow during the Great Depression in history.  But unfortunately, they offended Hua Fei.  After several years of careful preparations, the secret "Man-eating Shark" team formulated a series of ambitious plans against the Rawls family. Taking advantage of the overwhelming stock market crash that broke out in the next year, all plans took advantage of the opportunity to operate.  In particular, the run on the banks owned by the Rawls family has exposed their largest source of funds to an unprecedented crisis.

    Originally, although the Great Depression plunged the entire U.S. national economy into a decade-long stagnation, the financial game was actually a zero-sum game.  Social wealth will increase due to production activities, but it will not increase due to skyrocketing stocks.  The wealth that evaporates from the Wall Street stock market will not disappear out of thin air. They all go into the pockets of the bookmakers.

    With the Rawls family¡¯s connections in the United States, this act can rely on the help of its opponents.  But you have to understand that helping the Rawls family at this time will inevitably lead to a head-on confrontation with Hua Fei's funds.  Hua Fei's funds are following the trend.  Adding fuel to the flames, if others want to help, they can only go against the trend.

    Not only is this not a realistic possibility, but it will also offend the entire world.  The huge planning group behind the scenes will lose this rare opportunity to attract money.

    To these capital giants, they are like a giant python. If they don't move, they will be full for several years. Small shrimps and small fish will never be in their eyes. They will make trouble and make a lot of money every time.  Then it entered a low-key period.  But the low-key period is not their vacation, but the beginning of a new round of layout.

    This is not a conspiracy theory.  But the possibility of fact exists.  These capital pythons can predict or plan local financial trends in the world, thereby swallowing up the development wealth of a certain region or country.  The method of accumulating wealth through production to earn consumers has long been out of their sight. Their task is to formulate the rules of the game, use their powerful money as a weapon, treat each country as prey, and hunt them down cruelly.

    For these capital pythons, they may usually be happy to send personal favors to the Rawls family.  Outsiders may not know it, but who among them doesn¡¯t know who the enemies of the Rawls family are!  There are two peaks in this world, one is wealth and the other is power. They exist intertwinedly. When a person controls huge power and also controls astonishing wealth at the same time, then this person's energy will make people  I have to be afraid.

    Hua Fei is such a person. Even the capital pythons in the United States do not know the total value of Hua Fei's assets. Someone has done statistics, but the answer is not completely certain.  Even so, the total statistics at that time had reached 10 billion US dollars.

    The most important thing is that Hua Fei is also the president of a large eastern country and controls a terrifying armed army.  Moreover, his wealth is not illegally obtained, it is all public and legal wealth and is known to his citizens.

    China¡¯s financial market is not yet open, and Hua Fei¡¯s subordinates have a group of veterans who have worked hard in the U.S. financial field for many years. They have also attracted many down-and-out financial talents from Wall Street. Their financial experience and ability to act cannot be underestimated.  If time passes, these American capital pythons may still have some ideas about Hua Fei's wealth, but at this time, any ideas can only be hidden temporarily.

    ¡°It turns out that the Rawls family was only suspected of killing his wife. The entire family was suppressed like this within a few years.  And the one in their family whose name he came from was secretly assassinated.  Although Ingrid's child married to China.  But he still has the blood of the Haman family.  Although the entire Harman family has been divided for many years, they have united on this matter, working as arms with Hua Fei's capital, and taking the opportunity to help rise the huge waves.

    Are gangsters scary?  Nothing to be afraid of.  But one.  With huge wealth, a think tank, armed forces, and often life-threatening gangsters, people have to be on guard day and night

    Therefore, the combination of various objective factors has completely shattered the hopes of the Rawls family.  Their banks went bankrupt.  Pan American and other American banks began to secretly take over the Rawls family's business.

    The Rawls family struggled and gradually declined during the Great Depression, but they could not collapse overnight.  After recognizing the reality, the Rawls family took the initiative to find the Harman family, hoping that the Harman family would act as an intermediary to mediate this crisis.

    Hua Fei originally wanted to continue to suppress, but after receiving the opinions of Wang Yan and others, he also understood that he had gained a lot this time.  Going too far is not enough. If you continue to pursue it blindly, not only will the return rate become lower and lower, but it will also arouse the resentment of other American consortiums and even the anger of the U.S. government.

    And a giant Rawls family is easy to target and suppress, but once this family collapses and falls into pieces??, they hide themselves and are enemies of Hua Fei in the United States, which is also a headache.

    In the end, Hua Fei sent a special person to negotiate with the Rawls family. If the Rawls family wanted to reconcile, they could, but in addition to the "sincerity" they had previously proposed, their family itself must also divide.

    All members of the Rawls family must leave the United States, and all wealth must also be transferred. During Huafei's lifetime, no descendants of the Rawls family are allowed to set foot on American soil. The younger generation of the Rawls family will all immigrate to China, and they will never be allowed to live in China.  Qualified to engage in the financial industry.

    Hua Fei¡¯s conditions can be described as weird, but there is absolutely no possibility of negotiation.  If the Rawls family does not agree, there will never be a possibility of reconciliation.  Moreover, Hua Fei also hinted that he did not just have a means to suppress the Rawls family.

    This naked threat is already obvious, and Hua Fei has the capital to make this threat.  Although even the Rawls family could not guess the future, the elders in their clan understood that this was the young Chinese who wanted to completely eliminate the possibility of their future revenge.

    While Hua Fei¡¯s team is making money in the United States, various domestic policies and construction have not fallen behind.  The stock market crash that broke out on Wall Street quickly spread not only across the United States, but also to Europe and even the world.  Although China's economy is relatively closed, international trade has developed very rapidly in recent years.  Although before the crisis broke out, the Nanjing government had introduced various adjustment policies in advance, tightened monetary policy, especially imposed strict restrictions on the stock market and enacted various laws to prevent the inflow of hot money.

    "However, the Great Depression will inevitably affect the domestic economy, and we have been prepared for it.  Because it has only been less than twenty years since China's death in 1911.  If we don¡¯t count the more than ten years of civil war, it only took a few years to unify the country.  Industrialization has only been fully accelerated in China, and various constructions are in full swing. This is completely different from Western societies that have completed industrialization long ago.

    Therefore, although the outbreak of the Great Depression in the West affected China's exports, China's exports were generally light industry, and the output was not huge, so there was no huge worry about overcapacity.  In addition, industrialization has not started for a long time, and the team of industrial workers is limited, without the burden of large-scale unemployment.  A small number of unemployed people in cities have complete social security and insurance systems to deal with them, which greatly alleviates social conflicts.

    Especially the Nanjing government¡¯s strict monitoring of financial markets such as the stock market. The man-eating shark team set fires in the United States, but they can¡¯t let people set fires in their backyards.  Therefore, the entire country's limited-scale financial market did not experience major fluctuations, and people's wealth did not suffer major losses.  This is not caused by policy factors alone, but also by the fact that Chinese people generally have low savings and even less awareness of financial management.  Even if some people have financial awareness.  Bonds issued by the state are their first choice.  Therefore, those who play in the stock market are mostly capitalists and the wealthy class.  Compared to Wall Street, the fluctuations in Shanghai's stock market are simply insignificant and not worth mentioning.  Even if someone suffers huge losses or even jumps off the building.  However, the wealth of the vast majority of people throughout the country has been effectively preserved.

    But Hua Fei is not satisfied with this. The biggest direct result of the Great Depression is the sharp drop in the cost of raw materials, industrial products, and even talent throughout the world. The prices of some industrial products and raw materials are unimaginable.

    Therefore, almost at the end of the year after the black stock market plummeted on Wall Street, the central government¡¯s new annual development plan was released. In this plan, Nanjing not only did not shrink investment, but instead issued huge construction bonds of up to 100 billion Singapore dollars. It started in full swing  Infrastructure construction in various fields such as railways, highways, bridges, water conservancy, electricity, agriculture, industry, ports, communications, cities, etc.

    Many of these infrastructure construction plans have been planned for a long time. However, the Great Recession brought about a decrease in overall costs, and the senior government staff committee that formulated this plan discovered that if we accelerate these construction plans at this time, not only can our country fully enter the country ahead of schedule,  In the era of industrialization development, it can also save up to more than half of the investment.

    By saving such a large investment, the wealth saved can of course be used to develop people's livelihood and welfare undertakings.  So Hua Fei has no reason not to support this.  plan.

    So, at the beginning of 2020, when the whole world was plunged into gloom and gloom, China's shockingly huge construction plan was released.  As soon as this plan appeared, it was like a sudden explosion of lightning in a dark thunderstorm, shocking everyone's attention.  The first reaction of the media from various countries was, crazy, China is completely crazy.

    "Whether China is crazy or not, Hua Fei doesn't know that after the government's 100 billion construction bond sale, the large amount of idle funds he transferred back to the country finally came into use.  This time, Hua Fei no longer kept a low profile, but personally announced that he would use as much as 20 billion Singapore dollars in cash under his name to purchase government buildings.?Bonds.

    Hua Fei¡¯s move not only caused an uproar in the domestic press, but also stunned the entire world.  However, no one among the common people expressed hatred towards Hua Fei's huge wealth, because the process of Hua Fei's legendary rise has long been known to women and children, and this rise process is actually a history of the development of wealth and the army.

    People don¡¯t hate wealth, people only hate unfair wealth, and people only hate the filthy original sin of wealth hidden under the shady curtain.  As early as when Hua Fei took power in the autonomous region, the assets under his name were officially separated and operated independently. He would never use his power for personal gain, and he accepted extensive supervision from the media, public opinion and the general public.

    In fact, not only is the public not hostile to Hua Fei's wealth, but the asset brand under Hua Fei's name also has an extremely good reputation.  All brand assets under Hua Fei's name are complete.  The company with the best reputation in the industry.  In the original market squelch war in Shanghai, the main force responsible for fighting against various price stagnations was the fund under the name of Hua Fei.  The heavy industry under Hua Fei's name has provided huge impetus to the country's industrial development and progress.  In particular, the highly reputable Bumrun Grain Store is trying to stabilize market grain prices.  What a huge contribution he made, these things are unforgettable.

    In addition, Hua Fei has used personal funds to sponsor a large number of funds in recent years.  People understand that the development of these funds is for the country and the development of the entire nation.

    According to newspaper reports, after Hua Fei appeared in the public eye, Hua Fei's life was never arrogant and luxurious.  Even in his private life, after the death of the first lady, many people advised Hua Fei to remarry, but Hua Fei never agreed.

    In the minds of countless people, not only are they not jealous or hostile to Hua Fei's huge wealth, but they are still happy for the increase in Hua Fei's wealth.  Consciously or unconsciously, they will go shopping in Huafei's businesses.  Although Huafei's capital rarely directly controls light industry and retail, it also invests in various industries in Galaxy.  It is also strictly prohibited to use Hua Fei¡¯s brand name to promote it.  However, this invisible belief is still quietly established in the minds of many people.

    Hua Fei suddenly spent a huge sum of 20 billion to purchase government bonds, which undoubtedly greatly stimulated private investment enthusiasm.  Many people from well-off families were still reading newspapers and lamenting that the world was beginning to enter the Great Depression and were unable to cope with the inevitable inflation.  However, after a few months, they not only found that the high-speed inflation that was expected due to the good economic development in the country did not appear, but Hua Fei also guided them to an extremely excellent financial channel.

    Even the president is not afraid. What are we afraid of? We are really afraid that the government will not be able to pay back the money.  Even if it cannot be replaced, the president has lost 20 billion.  Wow, how much is 20 billion!  I only had 10,000 Singapore dollars in my hand, and all of it was gone. Well, it was nothing more than that!

    Soon, these Chinese people discovered how wise it was for them to purchase the Nanjing government's five- to fifteen-year construction performance bonds. A large number of foreign capital companies also wanted to purchase these construction bonds to avoid the inflationary pressure caused by the Great Depression.  Bonds, but the Nanjing government said that our batch of outstanding bonds is mainly for domestic sales, and there is only a quota of 10 billion overseas, and it is mainly

    Saudi Arabia, Iran, Iraq and other countries could not sit still, and their heads of state came to visit China one after another.  The wealth they had just amassed could not be held in their hands and watched as it depreciated.  Investing in gold and silver, but the international gold price has skyrocketed, which is really not practical.  China's bonds are still attractive, so I have to come over and get some of them no matter what.

    The most important thing is oil. The oil industry has just developed after the Internet.  However, it suffered a serious and devastating blow due to the global Great Recession.  Fortunately for Saudi Arabia, because when China has long-term cooperation agreements, risks are largely avoided, so this time it came over happily and insisted on continuing to sign a large number of cooperation and development agreements with China.

    This is not over yet. Iran, Iraq and other countries that took the lead in the Middle East saw that Saudi Arabia was good. Not only did they not invest a penny, but the Chinese provided money, people, and efforts to help them drill oil wells, transport, and sell them, and then they could  Sit at home and take dividends.  Is there really such a good thing in this world?  Originally, many people did not believe it.  But seeing Saudi Arabia, which was originally poor, quickly become rich not long after the founding of the country, you can see that they are anxious.  No, this time they took the opportunity to send a heavyweight visiting delegation to sign a cooperation agreement with China similar to Saudi Arabia.

    ??China, good people.  Compared with those oil companies in the West, you will never encounter a good person like China in a hundred years. Thank you Allah, thank you to President Hua Fei of China.

    If only a few countries from the Middle East came over, there would be no excitement. Seeing that China's domestic construction is in full swing.  And unfolded in an orderly manner, Germany, France, and the United Kingdom.  Countries such as Japan and the United States could not sit still and sent delegations to China one after another.

    Not for anything else.  Only for the various industries needed for China's comprehensive constructionTaste.  Raw materials and even talented workers.  Especially in Germany, after the Great Depression spread to Germany, its impact was also huge. Surplus industrial products and a large number of unemployed people gave the German government unprecedented headaches.  They sent a delegation and quickly played the friendship card, praising the always good friendship and cooperation between China and Germany. "They have only one purpose, buy my products and we will give them to the workers."

    ??Even major influential newspapers and well-known economists in Europe have said that the hope for the entire world to escape the Great Depression lies with China.  As long as China's large-scale construction can stimulate consumption in the world market.  The world economy may be able to recover.

    ¡°However, they were obviously a little naive, and they underestimated the catastrophic consequences of the Great Depression, because the most difficult period of the Great Depression still hasn¡¯t arrived yet.

    "In addition, Hua Fei himself is happy that you will continue to be depressed, so how could he be stupid enough to save the world for you.  raw materials.  Reluctantly accept it, after all, firstly, we need to develop production, and secondly, our reserves cannot be stopped.  As for industrial products, I¡¯m sorry, you see, we still have some leftovers. We also have a lot of unemployed industries, and we have a lot of money!

    As a result, except for countries such as Germany that received some orders, most countries came to take advantage of the good news and returned disappointed.  However, this cannot stop the enthusiasm of talents from all over the world. Due to extensive reports in newspapers from various countries, many unemployed skilled workers see China as a natural place for them to solve their problems, and many of them have emptied their property.  Carrying enough savings, either single, in pairs, or with family members, they boarded the ship and sailed to Shanghai, China.  Tianjin, Dalian, Qingdao, Guangdong, Fuzhou and other cities.

    Of course, the biggest destination is Shanghai. For a time, Shanghai¡¯s visa-free free zone was overcrowded with foreigners.  This directly led to a sharp increase in the prices of consumer goods inside.  An astonishing number of foreign workers come here one after another, just to find a job and make a living.

    Throughout the Great Depression, the number of unemployed people was staggering.  But it doesn¡¯t matter how skilled you are or whether you are a talent.  The entire factory is closed down, and your employment is still in question.  This group of foreign workers who first came to China is only the first batch. As the foreign economy continues to deteriorate, this wave of migrant workers is just the beginning.

    China does need skilled workers, but China at this time is already different from China during World War I. After these years of development, a large number of modern Chinese workers have been trained.  The vocational and technical schools that have sprung up like bamboo shoots have trained an endless stream of industrial workers for various factories.

    ¡°If during World War I, any foreigner with some skills could be reused in a factory, then it is different now.  Generally, unskilled workers are the same options for Chinese and foreigners. Why should we give employment opportunities to foreigners?

    "However, the launch of this national construction project, such as huge construction plans in railways, highways, electricity, bridges, communications, etc., has still created a huge talent gap.  Therefore, the Nanjing government quickly expanded its work in the visa-free free zone. Anyone who is willing to become a Chinese national is given priority in hiring and enjoys national treatment and national benefits. It is okay if you are unwilling to join, but in terms of benefits and benefits, you cannot enjoy the same national treatment.

    As for those workers who have average skills but can barely be used, seeing that they have come all the way here, just hire them reluctantly.  However, it is not possible to obtain Chinese nationality, which is temporary use.  If there is no good performance during work, or there is no progress in technology.  Then after the contract period is over, you will still be fired and sent back to your country.

    Since these foreigners went abroad, some of them decided not to go back.  Now they saw that the Chinese nationality was not something you could just dream of, it was very rare, so they enthusiastically applied. When they saw that the proportion of applicants who passed the application was not high, they became even more anxious.  Someone asked if one could demonstrate technological progress, and soon someone posted a notice, which was to obtain China's Advanced Vocational Assessment Certificate.

    ¡°However, there are also people who have not applied for Chinese citizenship. Their purpose is only to find temporary employment.  As the foreign economy deteriorated, and as news spread that these people had found jobs in China, the subsequent wave of migrant workers became even more intense.  The narrowing of the recruitment gap allowed the Nanjing government to quickly control the selection criteria.  Anyone who fails to pass will not be hired and will not be allowed to enter the non-free visa area.  This made the foreign workers who arrived first secretly even more grateful.

    In order to avoid the influx of more people and the riots caused by the failure to find a job, the Nanjing government issued recruitment announcements in major industrial sources, publicized positions and requirements, and held interviews at embassies of various countries.  Only those who pass the test can obtain a visa to China, and the visa-free free zone is temporarily controlled.  No free entry allowed.
