Chapter 274: Dare To Have (20/150(1/6)

Early in the morning, before dawn, the CEOs of the Eighth National Congress got up one after another.

Although I went to bed late last night, and although I am very old, who said that now is a special period.

As agreed, the umbrella protector will arrive early in the morning.

After all, they were hired at a high price, and they still need to protect their own safety during this period. Everyone wants to see it as soon as possible.

Including Katzenberg, he has never seen what a person with an umbrella looks like.

In this situation, all major companies are also on holiday, so several big bosses gathered together early to have breakfast if they had nothing to do.

While eating, I watched TV and paid attention to the developments in Los Angeles.

On the TV, the host loudly introduced, "For safety reasons, the police have abandoned most areas of Los Angeles."

What he said... didn't sound inconsistent.

"Because the police have deployed most of their forces to wealthy areas, industrial areas, and commercial areas, many communities were ransacked by rioting crowds last night."

"According to incomplete statistics, from 9 o'clock last night until dawn, a total of 945 fires occurred, with an average of more than one fire per minute. At the peak period, more than a dozen buildings were ignited and destroyed within one minute.

More than 400 buildings were built.”

A group of big guys looked at each other. They only knew that yesterday was a mess, but they didn't expect it to be so messy.

Is it okay if more than a dozen houses are set on fire in one minute?

What if the studios of major companies were set on fire...

"I'm really scared just thinking about it. If the studio was burned down, it would be a loss of at least tens of millions or even more."

Just as he was talking, a man hurried in and walked up to the president of Warner and whispered: "Sir, our new film shooting location was attacked by thugs."

President of Warner:(O_o)??

Everyone: "..."

Tell me, did you eat Lady Luck’s shit last night? It stinks so bad!

"How's the loss?" At this moment, the president of Warner didn't care whether he had a bad mouth or not.

"Two villas, a bar, a convenience store, and a bakery were looted and set on fire, and a small street was damaged."

"Farke!" Warner CEO cursed loudly, and then let out a long breath.

It's pretty good, the losses don't count...

Too big.

About 2 million.

"Okay, I understand, let everyone pay attention to safety and nothing will happen to anyone!" the president of Warner said with an ugly face.

If something happens to someone, the compensation will be more.

The secretary went out and everyone looked at each other, speechless for a moment.

At this time, the picture on the TV changed.

"Yesterday, many black people in other cities in the United States also issued actions to respond to the black people in Los Angeles."

"San Francisco police arrested 1,400 rioters downtown and imposed a curfew, the Nevada National Guard was deployed to Las Vegas and 200 people were arrested, Seattle was attacked by a mob of up to 100 people, and New Yorkers were

Black people were beaten by mobs, thugs looted a mall, and hundreds of protesters faced off with police in Atlanta."

"Meanwhile, minor disturbances were reported in Tampa, Pittsburgh, Birmingham and Omaha."

"Of course, compared to Los Angeles, these riots were not intense."

"Now we focus on Koreatown."

"Since the police were unable to support Koreatown, Korean immigrants began to gather spontaneously. They elected to quickly organize a self-defense force composed of former Marines and young volunteers to participate in this battle."

"This is a set of footage captured in which we can clearly see that South Korean shopkeepers and self-defense forces began to use guns to protect their shops from robbers,"

At this moment, on TV, Koreans were using storefronts as cover to engage in fierce exchanges of fire with Latinos and blacks.

The scene turned again, and a group of people with white cloth strips tied on their heads were squatting on the roof, each with a gun in their hand.

If the English on the screen were replaced with Latin, it would be a riot area in the Middle East.

Of course, Spanish is also available, that is, all countries in South America...

In fact, it is normal for Koreans to be attacked.

Starting in the 1960s and 1970s, a large number of Koreans began to immigrate to the United States, and they gathered together to form Koreatown.

Because of racial discrimination, Asians are not only discriminated against by whites, but also bullied by Latinos and blacks during their part-time job. In addition, Asians are better at math...

Anyway, for various reasons, Asians like to run small businesses in the United States, and Koreans are no exception.

Since wealthy areas in urban Los Angeles and its suburbs are inaccessible, Koreans are scattered in large numbers in urban and southern areas of Los Angeles. They open various small shops in these relatively poor areas to specifically serve the surrounding Latinos and blacks.

From this point of view, Koreans are really

brave……

But, as we all know, black people always have little money.

Korean bosses believe that these black people are all idlers who come to their stores not to consume but to seize opportunities to steal.

Therefore, no Korean dares to hire black employees. You have no idea whether the old black man you hire will knock you unconscious with a stick from behind, and then call your friends to vacate the store.

As a result, black people think that Koreans discriminate against them.

Anyway, being unhappy is discrimination...

This resulted in the Koreans suffering the most heavy losses during this turmoil.

The Chinese who have settled in Los Angeles for over a century have learned their lesson long ago and do not go to black areas to do business at all.

The market is left to the confident wisdom of the universe.

"Gentlemen, a notification was just sent from the airport. People have already boarded the bus and set off. They are expected to arrive in 20 minutes." A person knocked on the door and came in to inform.

"It can't be so fast." Michael Eisner said subconsciously after the people left.

"It's definitely impossible. There's chaos everywhere now."

"As long as we can get there in seven hours, there's no rush." ​​Katzenberg said.

But after a while, the door was pushed open again, and a voice with a deep joy sounded, "Sorry, gentlemen, excuse me, the person with the umbrella is here."

"Ah!?" Everyone was shocked, why did it happen so fast?

No matter what, when the security guards who paid a lot of money arrived, they naturally wanted to go down and see for themselves.

As soon as I arrived downstairs, I saw 300 people divided into three square teams and signing up.

Looking at the energetic, murderous and fully armed soldiers, the eight people looked at each other.

Isn’t this sense of security coming?

Bill stepped forward, and Katzenberg quickly stepped forward and introduced: "This is Mr. Bill, the president of Umbrella."

After that, he introduced the presidents of the other seven major companies, and everyone shook hands one by one.

Today's Bill is no longer the soldier who came off the battlefield a few years ago.

There is no change in the strong body, but by moving the body and cultivating the Qi, the aura of a person in a superior position has been improved.

After all, whoever holds three missile destroyers and 1,500 soldiers will have strong confidence.

Yes, after returning from Sri Lanka, Sean purchased another Keeling-class guided missile destroyer and sent it for modification.

An anti-submarine frigate was also purchased.

In addition, a Koontz-class destroyer is being repaired and refitted.

After resolving the hostage crisis in Lebanon for President Reagan, the Presidential Office immediately approved the Umbrella Company's purchase request.

The military has long wanted to retire the Koontz-class destroyers.

Sean did some research, and the military immediately decommissioned one and sold it to Umbrella as scrap metal.

At the same time, Sean ordered another three Black Hawks.

The original 2 aircraft are both in Sri Lanka. Newark, the home base in North America, also needs them, Cartagena in South America also needs them, and Sean also needs them personally...

Umbrella is now the world's largest private armed force.

none of them!

Of course, the rebels don't count.

Therefore, the CEOs of Big Seven did not dare to put on any airs in front of Bill.

Just kidding, Bill represents the truth!

The 300 people behind you are the most reasonable people.

After exchanging a few words, Bill said: "When the protective umbrella comes, safety comes. Therefore, we need to mark the areas that need our protection on the map."

"Oh, by the way, before that, find a place where you can wash up. There are a few people who have blood on their bodies and need to be cleaned up."
To be continued...
