Blackstone Code Chapter 1207: Don’t mess with me
The Lynch trio were also given a souvenir when they left the Palace Cinema at night.
A "Lynchy Adventures 2" book, a drift bottle with a boat in it, a craft, a gift certificate, and... something that should be considered a work of art.
The gift certificate is a movie ticket. The person who holds the gift certificate can bring three people and watch any Fox Films movie for free in any theater within a year. It may not be the highest value, but the sincerity is absolutely in place, and Very practical.
For the past two years, Fox Films has released about ten to twenty films every year. Assuming that the ticket price of each film is one and ninety-nine cents, based on fifteen films, this is thirty dollars, plus Three people watching the movie, that is 90 yuan.
Actually, it is more than 90 yuan, it can be reused, which means that the 90 yuan can also be used repeatedly.
As long as the skin is thick enough, it's worth nine hundred dollars!
But I believe that most of the people who can enter here will not take advantage of this. What they want is the privilege brought by this movie ticket!
When others need to buy a ticket, they only need to show such a ticket to enter the movie. This kind of treatment is enough to make all film critics willing to write a few good words for Fox Pictures.
Isn't this the "respect" they seek?
As for the thing that makes it a little unclear what it is, it's actually a cowboy on a horse made of dollar bills, at least that's what it looks like.
It's all made up of one-dollar bills, about one hundred and ninety-nine, and you're saying it's a bribe, then obviously it doesn't have to be.
But you have to say that it is really a work of art, in fact, the person who made it can use other materials instead of money.
Maybe in the eyes of the rich, in the eyes of those who wouldn't notice that it was one hundred and ninety-nine dollars, it was a work of art.
But to those who can't help but associate it with money, it's one hundred and ninety-nine dollars!
After returning to the hotel, Lynch and the two girls did some exercise. Lying in bed smoking a cigarette, Lynch watched some reports about tonight's premiere on the TV screen.
Nellie, who was lying on his right, suddenly asked a question, "Can I try to be a director?" she asked.
She felt that she had no talent for acting. Unlike Penny, she could enter the plot at any time and anywhere as long as she read the script.
Most directors who have worked with Penny have praised her, not for her acting, but for her talent.
With such talent and acquired things like acting, she can be obtained through hard work, and she will definitely become a super star in the Federation.
But Nelly can't do it herself, she doesn't have such talent, and in this filming, she felt that she had "did her best".
From her own perspective, she thinks she can be better, more intense and infectious, but she just can't bring herself to have those qualities.
She was thinking that maybe she could try being a director herself.
Lynch nodded, "Yes!" without any hesitation.
It's not that he trusts so much, or favors Nelly, it's that such little things are not worth his thinking.
He doesn't even have the desire to use his brain, just some small money, that doesn't matter.
Nellie got what she wanted, with more smiles on her face so she could help out a bunch of her ex-roommates.
Maybe I can also walk out of a different future on this path as a director.
And it's all because of Lynch.
She quietly indented into the quilt, hesitating, unable to express her gratitude.
Lynch is back in Buffon after two days in Laltimore, and with Fox's listing, he needs to be back.
But he doesn't care much about Fox's listing. Judging from the current assessment, the total market value of Fox Pictures after its listing will not exceed 10 million federal sols.
After the diluted shares held by Lynch, there is still 15% left, which is only more than one million. He doesn't care much about these small money.
On the day after Lynch returned, something unexpected happened.
Perhaps "the other half of the world" Pengio and his allies sensed the pressure brought by the federation. They not only formed a group, but also did a very special thing - raising tariffs on some federation products .
Things like raising tariffs are actually telling those international traders, "Don't send the **** to us anymore."
Raise tariffs, increase costs, and lose competitiveness in the market.
The goods included in the tariff adjustment list by Penggio Group this time involve thirteen categories and more than forty specific goods, including cheap lighters and luxury lighters, as well as gas lamps and oil lamps. and other daily lighting equipment, as well as some small electronic equipment.
This is not for one country, but for the entire World Development Council member countries.
So the next day Lynch attended an economic security conference at the Department of International Affairs as "Senior Advisor to the Office of Economic Security of the Federal Security Council".
Lynch was smoking on the balcony before the meeting and bumped into Mr. Trueman, and the two got together again.
"This time they are very targeted. It is possible that we will split the world in half..." He stopped talking, took out a lighter, and lit a cigarette for Lynch.
Lynch looked out into the distance and made no response to Mr. Trueman's comments.
Until there is a strategic weapon of real deterrence, the hostility of humans to each other will not hesitate to show, and there is no force to shut them up, to stop them from doing what they are going to do.
So the world has actually been divided into many parts from the very beginning, but now some fragments are gradually fused together, and finally become what it is today.
Half the federation, the alliance headed by the countries such as Gafra, and the half are the organizations of Penggio and other countries, the world has been completely opposed.
Mr. Trueman flicked the ashtray, "Do you think we need to fight back?"
Lynch's expression finally changed. He turned his head to look at Mr. Truman with a look of surprise, "Does anyone plan to leave it like this?"
Mr. Truman looked back at the balcony door. The door was closed, and no one was paying attention or approaching.
He lowered his voice slightly, "You know, Mr. President is a little bit afraid of war..."
Lynch understood immediately.
Yes, Mr. President, he almost forgot about this man.
Mr. President is a politician, and any politician's political platform is made for election.
Just like the Conservative Party's political platform has also started to skew towards radical and tough, they have started talking about initiative in state and local elections, and hearing those words, who would have imagined that these people are Conservatives ?
But they are the Conservative Party, because their political platform is to unite more international allies and isolate international enemies, which can also be regarded as a kind of conservative, conservative in the international community.
So is Mr. President, a conservative in the Progressive Party, and he fears war.
A few years ago, the federal people overly publicized the horror of war, so that many people were afraid of war. Coupled with the lack of self-confidence in the federal society at that time, people's disgust of war reached the extreme.
Now everything has changed, many people have transformed, and the younger the person, the faster the transformation.
Old people slow down.
Mr. President does not want to escalate into a local war because of the trade friction between the two largest war groups in the world. This seems a bit uneconomical and not safe enough.
"We must fight back, and we must be fierce!", Lynch finally gave his opinion, "If we let the people of Penggio restrain us financially, the people will be disappointed..."
If the people are not disappointed, in fact, politicians don't care.
There is no one who is not disappointed. If the politicians promise the people to do things if they make a table, at least 60 to 70% of the things in this table are not realized.
The people have been disappointed, and will continue to be disappointed, of course.
The "people" that Lynch really wanted to talk about were actually those big capitalists. If the capitalists were disappointed, the voters who were "represented" by them would also be disappointed.
Mr. Truman clearly understands this, "Do you have any good advice?"
"What they give us, we give them back!"
A few moments later, the meeting officially began, with Lynch present.
Mr. Truman talked about these things and discussed countermeasures after spreading some information.
And this is precisely the main responsibility of the Department of International Affairs~IndoMTL.com~ It mainly formulates and responds to some international changes.
The tone has been set from the very beginning, that is, competition, confrontation, confrontation!
The sky is clear in August, but it always gives people a feeling of indescribable, like... a storm is coming!
Two days later, in the temporary office conference room of the World Development Council in Sardos, representatives of the Federation submitted a "Proposal for the Regulation of Sensitive Materials" to all representatives.
In this bill, the Federation lists a number of sensitive materials that need to be controlled, and will no longer be shipped to countries outside the World Development Council.
As the first resolution of the World Development Committee, it was passed unanimously. On the day of the adoption, all member states began to stop the export of certain materials.
The Federation also announced a minimum increase of 100% and a maximum increase of 500% protective tariffs on imported products from countries such as Penggio!
Afterwards, a reporter captured the dissatisfaction on Minister Penggio's face when he came out of the International Affairs Department. Before leaving, he roared loudly at the door of the International Affairs Department, and the domestic atmosphere suddenly became tense!
