Time enters February 2024.
The immigrants on the moon hide in closed lunar cities all day long, living a fulfilling life every day, enjoying the amazing dividends brought by urban expansion, and knowing little about the changes outside.
At this moment, the earth is experiencing a cold winter.
It is not the normal four-season changes that the northern hemisphere experiences at this time of year, but an economic winter.
As the East Galaxy Company penetrates into industries in more countries, it brings about a large-scale elimination of production means, and a large amount of capital is withdrawn and used for other purposes, and then enters industries related to planet development.
This rapid and violent change The way this evolved finally had its consequences.
A large number of backward products began to accumulate, and people who gradually realized that they were about to face a new era were no longer willing to consume products that would soon be eliminated, even if relatively reasonable price reduction measures were given.
Companies that produce products are eager to withdraw funds in order to keep up with the times.
However, they also adhere to the nature of businessmen and not many are willing to engage in loss-making transactions.
We have just completed the production capacity upgrade work.
For example, te and Tesla, which have close cooperation with Dongyinhe Company, are using advertising gimmicks to promote their new products, such as the new generation of electric vehicles and the next generation of VR virtual reality entertainment equipment. .
Because the new product is still in the experimental stage, the price is high, the technology is not yet mature, there is no actual revolutionary progress, the sales volume is not very satisfactory, and the market has not been successfully opened.
Therefore, once the relationship between supply and demand becomes distorted and the economy becomes a stagnant water, it will be difficult to operate again.
It will start from the free lighthouse countries and several developed countries as the explosion point, and gradually spread to the world.
The profits of all companies are declining, and the country's GDP is even going backwards.
In terms of ordinary people's lives, what people feel most notably is that jobs have become difficult to find, and stores are full of goods.
As a result, they dare not consume for fear of Waste relatively non-depreciating currency on goods that may depreciate rapidly.
"But this is normal, isn't it?"
Cao Chuan pointed to several advertising pictures, which were mobile phone products that Apple, a well-known mobile phone manufacturing company, originally planned to sell in batches in the next five years.
But now, in just six months, Apple has The company broke the original rule of one new mobile phone every year, and instead released three products: ihone9, ihone9s, and ihone10.
"We have to admit that every product is sincere.
After evaluation, we will find that each product has different functions and improved performance.
With so many released at once, it is really difficult to distinguish them in the eyes of consumers, and they cannot feel the difference at all."
"From Apple's perspective, it pays staggering R&D expenses for each generation of mobile phones.
In order to seize the last moment before the big wave of planet expansion, they have to find ways to withdraw funds in a short period of time.
Their approach also has its own reasons. " "So, ordinary people are not wrong, the company is not wrong, it is the world that is wrong."
“Historically, the pain caused by this productivity revolution is only natural.
For example, the birth of the textile machine eliminated a large number of female textile workers, the birth of the telegraph eliminated a large number of postmen, and production machinery eliminated traditional craftsmen.
"The only unexpected thing is that due to the emergence of Dongyinhe Company, the outbreak of pain became dozens of times more intense and dozens of times shorter."
"The disadvantage is that the world situation suddenly becomes serious, and it looks like the end is coming; the advantage is that if we get through it quickly, a better tomorrow will be waiting for us."
Nana was listening.
From time to time, she paid attention to the stock prices of several major stock exchanges in the world, as well as official reports.
After summarizing the massive data, she slowly said: "Master, now there are almost 5 trillion unsold goods."
Do you have any solution for the goods with the above value?”
She advised: "This is difficult, but if we get through the cold winter quickly, when spring comes, this great cause of conquering the stars and the sea will affect all mankind."
Cao Chuan bared his teeth: "It's quite attractive, but even if I want to drag 7 billion people to obey my orders, I don't have the confidence."
“The most I can do is try my best and wait.”
After he finished speaking, he started talking to himself again.
In his mind, not only was his brain thinking about the problem, but hundreds of environments were also simulating the operation of the world.
However, the current problem was too practical, even if it was If you come up with some answers but don't know how to apply them, it won't be of much help to you.
In the past, when the world economy was not yet integrated, a better solution to this problem was conflict transfer.
The government would come forward to dump its own unsalable and backward products to poor countries.
However, the poor countries' productivity was underdeveloped, and their unsaleable and backward products remained the same.
There is market space.
On the other hand, poor countries also need these products to improve their productivity and enrich their material lives, so this method will effectively alleviate conflicts.

Up to now, trade between countries has been too frequent, and as the saying goes, one move affects the whole body.
In the past ten years, the economy of lighthouse countries has been in depression, and they have further reduced their import quotas and devalued their currencies.
As a result, other countries have been unlucky and affected.
There are countless examples of passing things around, and the effects of similar methods begin to become less obvious.
"And if they are left alone, governments will definitely have to consider how to solve the problem.
Coupled with the natural healing ability of the economic system, when the pain subsides, the process will probably be that the backlog of goods is gradually digested, or companies will continue to cut the meat and reduce the price. prices, and some new products that truly transcended the times were launched and sold well, driving economic development
.
"
That being said, the reason why Cao Chuan wanted to do something was because he didn't expect that the labor pain would last for 5 or 10 years, which would be a bit long.
However, I will definitely be like the last training camp.
Instead of acting as a charity organization, I will get some benefits from it.
Even if I have to pay some money, at least I will feel in my heart that I am not such a loser.
"You can consider making profits from it.
You can also consider further expanding the reputation of Dongyinhe Company.
You can still consider a little attack on restless opponents."
Cao Chuan thought of the establishment of a training camp two months ago to alleviate many social problems caused by unemployment.
The issue of unrest has also taken the lead, forcing other companies and countries to get involved.
He planned to repeat his old tricks and do something to his advantage.
To say that they have a lot of money on hand, compared to the global economic aggregate of hundreds of billions, they are still a child; compared to the 51 square kilometers of the earth, the lunar city is still a small place.
These are not his strengths. .
Therefore, the real advantage he has is that he has mastered super-era technology.
However, it cannot be viewed so simply.
If you look at this advantage from another angle, it can actually be said that he can control the future.
He has a way to know in advance what other products will soon be eliminated by the torrent of the times in the future.
He also has a way to limit technological progress, hinder the elimination of products, and obtain more dividends from it.
Others can only guess the future, only he can decide the future:
