Chapter 25 The Price of Freedom (Chapter Merge)(1/2)
yes!
Why didn't I remember it?
After Shen Jiannan said that, Huang Guoqiang woke up from a dream and picked up his briefcase.
But I don’t know if the briefcase is too heavy or he is too old, so the briefcase with a hidden buckle can’t be opened.
"Yellow Beast, do you need me to help you?"
“…”
Finally, Huang Guoqiang trembled with his hands and took out a big brother from his bag, but at this moment, he had no courage to press the number above.
His subconscious mind was telling him that everything was fake. Shen Jiannan wanted to humiliate him and win the bet. As long as he revealed the truth, all conspiracies and tricks would disappear under the sun.
That's Finland, how could it be defeated by a person's sovereignty and credibility?
But his reason and eyes told him that everything was true.
If this call is made and it is confirmed that it is true, there will be no hope.
Fight, or not!
Huang Guoqiang never wanted to call, and it would be so difficult to choose to make a phone call.
The projector's picture continued to play frame by frame. Shen Jiannan no longer paid attention to Huang Guoqiang's interest. Freedom and fairness always require a strong foundation. In the face of facts, what is the difference between fighting or not fighting?
Finally, the progress of the picture in the projector reached Italy.
"Italy is a major member of the European Community. We are confident enough to defeat the international financial tycoon led by Shen Jiannan to defend the exchange rate of the lira."
“…”
"Deutsche Bank President Schlesinger said that the stability of the exchange rate mechanism requires the depreciation of the currencies of some countries for this purpose, and he specifically pointed out Italy's weak economic foundation."
“…”
"On September 8, European Telecom, the Italian lira plummeted 23% that day..."
“…”
"For the stability of the exchange rate mechanism, the German Central Bank lent Italy 26 billion marks..."
“…”
"On September 9, the Italian lira rose first and then fell, with a single-day decline of more than 18%...."
“…”
"In an interview with reporters, Spanish Minister of Finance Carlos Solchaga said that the European Community represents the future economy of Europe. He strongly condemned the international financial tycoon led by Shen Jiannan for destroying the economic order in Europe..."
“…”
"On September 10, the Italian lira plummeted 23%, falling below the lower track of the European exchange rate mechanism."
“…”
"Italian Finance Minister Giovanni Glia announced that Italy withdraws from the European exchange rate mechanism."
“…”
"Italian Bank President Carlo Azelio Ciampi issued a statement that the central bank will give up its focus on the Mark exchange rate and implement a free floating exchange rate..."
“…”
"Spain's Pesetta plunged more than 40% in a single day..."
“…”
Europe, the cradle of modern civilization and the source of modern revolution, represents science in the new era, represents development and prosperity, and carries glory and honor.
In Europe, even if you are a street sweeper, you will earn much more than domestic leaders.
Hundred times huge.
But now...
Is this Europe now?
How is this possible?
"Why no one speaks?"
"Didn't it mean that Professor Huang and Teacher Shen are arguing, why are they quiet?"
"Let me, let me..."
"What are you squeezing?"
"Who is so blind?"
“…”
The silence upstairs made the students watching downstairs notice something strange, but unfortunately, there were people inside and outside, and they couldn't squeeze in no matter how crowded they were.
As for the students who were squeezed into the classroom, they all seemed to have lost their souls, and they really couldn't believe everything that happened on the screen.
Because, as the picture gradually advances, the wrong suicide news, crime news data, bankruptcy, demonstrations, and riots are displayed behind the news on the projected screen.
It was like a crazy scene like a disaster and apocalypse, making people feel as if he was coming.
Suddenly, the projector's image came to an abrupt end and was frozen in a conflict between the police and the protesters. The tear gas burning on the ground emitted smoke and dust, making the whole image look like a dream.
At this moment, Shen Jiannan suddenly spoke.
“Isn’t it unbelievable?”
“…”
quiet.
Surprisingly quiet.
The world I learned about in my dreams for more than ten years suddenly realized that it seemed completely different from what I imagined. The huge gap made all students feel that everything they saw had a strong sense of unreality.
Just like, dreaming, absurd and unrealistic.
That's Europe!
Europeans are so noble and smart, their technology is so developed, and their economy is so prosperous, and they even represent human civilization.
You should know that both the modern industrial revolution and modern economic theory were born in Europe, and the originator of modern medicine was also born in Europe and constantly innovated.
How could such a Europe be trapped in the economic collapse of hell like on the screen?
Although a guy like Shen Jiannan does not have Sun Wuzi's golden eyes, his eyes can already see through the facts and see through people's hearts. Looking at the students around him feeling lost and lost their souls, there is no way I know how shocked these guys are.
He could only sigh helplessly in response to this.
The modern Western industrial revolution did not defeat the confidence of the Chinese people. World War II allowed the numb people to regain a strong and indestructible confidence. However, the economic gap in the decades after the war was destroyed little by little under the impact of repeated thoughts of some people, whether intentionally or unintentionally.
They are all prides of heaven. I really don’t know how they created that miraculous leap in their original trajectory.
You know, confidence is more important than gold.
If a person loses confidence, he is like a walking corpse. If a country loses national confidence, he will not be far from being slaughtered.
But, under the repeated impact of the free thoughts of universal values, this country not only did not sink into it, but instead rose rapidly like a giant dragon.
There is no second example of this phenomenon in the thousands of years of history around the world.
Shen Jiannan couldn't help but take a look at Tang Jiefang. Perhaps it was because of the existence of such people that he taught a group of students like He Yuanchao, and finally he made things right and crossed the river by feeling the stones, but never let the country be flooded by the tide of the times.
"The result is the only criterion for measuring truth, and time is the only criterion for testing this criterion."
"Do you want to know why the economic systems of these countries suddenly collapse?"
“…”
"In fact, there is only one reason, freedom."
“…”
"Before this, Professor Huang said that the rapid economic growth of Western countries in the past decade is based on the comprehensive opening of the financial market.
That's right, this is an indisputable fact."
“…”
"But freedom is a double-edged sword."
"And this result is the price of freedom."
“……”
"The reason why I was able to defeat the currencies of these countries was because they did not understand the definition of freedom of the financial market and rashly opened up the free financial market."
"I said in class a few years ago that with the progress of the times, the power of finance is even more terrifying than nuclear bombs."
“……”
"So you can imagine that a country has a nuclear bomb, but it doesn't know where the nuclear bomb will explode and what consequences will it bring in the end?"
“…”
To be continued...
