Hong Kong variety show: An undercover agent from Infernal Affairs? I'm not human anymore!

The entire nation was stunned.

President Ketton began announcing the identities of these people.

The entire nation was shaken at this moment.

"It's them?!"

"It's that squid man in the video who called us trash!"

"They were arrested?"

"Good catch!"

Then President Ketton began announcing their charges: secession, racial discrimination, and a series of other illegal and criminal acts…

Finally, the announcement was made: "Everyone, execute them!!"

At that moment, viewers across the country watching television, in countless homes, bars, and everywhere else, cheered.

"it is good!"

They should be executed!

"Well done!"

"Die well!"

Countless citizens vented their anger with great satisfaction.

"Waaaaah~~~~ No, I don't want to die!"

"I have not split the country!"

"I was wrong, please don't execute me!"

Those squid-man playboys were all crying and sniffling.

But the worse they behave, the happier, more satisfied, and more vindicated the American citizens watching on television become.

……

1 hours later,

These 17 wealthy young men, known as "squid princes," were executed in front of hundreds of millions of viewers and broadcast live on television stations across the country.

“Bang bang bang~~~~~”

They were executed one by one!

As these executions occurred, the anger of the American people slowly subsided once again.

……

After the execution, President Croton took a third step.

That evening, in addition to reporting the execution by firing squad on major television stations across the country, numerous wealthy individuals from the U.S. stepped forward and sincerely pledged to donate a total of $2000 billion to improve the economic situation of the American people through various means, such as distributing shopping vouchers, subsidies, and cash handouts to citizens nationwide.

This move further quelled the anger of many Americans.

……

President Ketton subsequently held frequent press conferences to announce policies, including fiscal stimulus...

……

A month has passed in the blink of an eye.

The impact of the events in the US Congress is gradually subsiding...

The crisis cloud that had hung over the United States has finally dissipated, and the anger of the people has been appeased.

but,

The United States also paid a price.

The biggest problem is that the fiscal deficit has skyrocketed to 200%!

Originally, after President Croton took office in 1992, he began to vigorously develop the domestic economy, reduce foreign wars, and implement fiscal policies of increasing revenue and reducing expenditure and "balancing the budget." The US fiscal deficit decreased year by year from $2900 billion in 1992. If there were no unexpected events, a surplus should have appeared in 1998, achieving the first surplus in the US government budget in 30 years, and then the fiscal surplus reached as high as $1150 billion in 1999.

This is what President Ketton excels at—boosting the economy!

Now, because of the butterfly effect of Ma Zhichao, the United States is in turmoil, with the East China Sea conflict, zero-dollar purchases, and internal strife...

In response to this congressional incident, President Croton spared no expense in providing substantial subsidies to the nation in an effort to quell public anger.

Then, something happened that everyone in the world knows about!

More US dollars have been printed!

Print like crazy!

You say you're broke? I'll print as much as I can for you!

Let's give them a trillion!

When they realized it wasn't enough, they printed another trillion!

A total of 2 trillion!

Other countries' rampant money printing leads to domestic inflation, a consequence that the country itself must bear.

But the US printing money is different. The US currency doesn't just bring bad consequences domestically, but it drags the whole world down with it. Everyone has to share the burden!

Because international trade is primarily conducted in US dollars, the US dollar has enormous foreign exchange reserves. When the US prints large amounts of money, it causes their foreign exchange reserves to depreciate, meaning that these countries lose a significant portion of their wealth without doing anything.

It was this act of printing money that provoked anger from countries around the world.

……

Victoria.

When news of the additional $2 trillion printing reached London...

Downing Street, Prime Minister James was furious and about to explode.

He stared at the report, his face ashen, his heart filled with anger and worry.

"Fuck!!" Prime Minister James roared, "Has the US government gone mad? They're playing with fire! They're destroying the world's economy!"

His secretary stood by, too frightened to utter a sound. This wasn't the first time the Prime Minister had been angry, but this time, his anger seemed even more intense.

“We cannot stand idly by!” Prime Minister James continued. “I cannot tolerate this behavior; it will be extremely harmful to Victoria’s economy!”

Soon, a cabinet meeting was convened.

At the meeting, the Prime Minister presented the cabinet members with a report on the United States' money printing.

"Ladies and gentlemen, we are facing an unprecedented challenge. The United States' money printing has seriously threatened our economic security and interests, and we cannot sit idly by," said Prime Minister James.

"Prime Minister, I completely agree with you. The United States' money printing is a disruptive and offensive act against the global economy, and we must teach them a lesson. I suggest that we immediately restrict trade with the United States to reduce the impact of the dollar's circulation. We should also unite with other countries to jointly resist the United States' money printing," said Chancellor Smith.

"Chancellor of the Exchequer, I disagree. The United States remains an important trading partner and ally of ours, and we should try to resolve this issue through diplomatic channels rather than taking drastic measures. We should also consider that the United States' money printing may be a response to its domestic economic crisis, rather than an intention to harm us," Foreign Secretary Mary said.

"Foreign Secretary, you are mistaken. The United States' money printing is a selfish and disregardful act. They don't care about the balance and stability of the global economy; they only care about their own interests. I suggest we freeze US assets in Victoria to prevent them from acquiring wealth through money printing," said Home Secretary Michael.

An hour later, the cabinet issued a resolution:

—Restrict trade with the United States, freeze US assets in Victoria, and unite with other countries to resist the US's money printing activities.

……

Victoria's reaction drew global attention. Other countries began taking action to counter the US's money printing. Trade relations between nations became strained, and the global monetary system experienced turmoil.

France and other European countries have strengthened their exchange rate controls on the US dollar, diversified their foreign exchange reserves, and increased their efforts to stimulate their domestic economies.

Island nations and South Korea have strengthened the coordination of their monetary policies to prevent the depreciation of the dollar from impacting their exports, while also widening their trade deficits with the United States.

More importantly, those countries that are close to the United States have all realized one problem:

We need to move away from the US dollar!

Try to establish trade mechanisms with other countries that use local or other currencies for settlement!

And all of this inevitably comes down to one question—gold!

At this moment, all the major powers realized that 'cooperation' with the Giant God Group had become extremely important!

Therefore, the trip to the US Federal Reserve's treasury is imperative!

……

……

Hong Kong Island.

The chaos in the United States has caused tremendous turmoil in the entire economic market.

This led to a further acceleration in Ma Zhichao's money laundering efforts.

"Another 50 billion US dollars..."

Ma Zhichao thought for a moment.

"Or, we could invest in island nations, South Korea, and Southeast Asia."

"First, lay out the plan..."

Chapter 425 The World Watches: The Federal Reserve's Treasury!

"Boss, who are we kidnapping this time?"

"Kidnapping the president won't work, kidnapping Congress won't work, and kidnapping other high-ranking officials won't pose a threat at all..."

"It's simple, just tie another cruise ship to it."

"The boss is brilliant!"

……

……

The Pacific Ocean.

On the vast sea,

A luxury cruise ship, the Argo, carries over 4000 American tourists on a holiday trip to Asia. (From Deep Rising)
