111: Chapter 111 Where Will the World Go?
The new President was completely stunned.
She didn't know what she should say!
"Talk... reason?"
"Correct. I helped you into power, yet you returned kindness with enmity, severely damaging the rules of free trade. You even banned Douyin International Version, infringing on freedom of speech and violating the First Amendment of the American Constitution. Therefore, I have launched this Special Operation!"
"This operation aims to demilitarize and de-populize America... Now I want to ask: on American soil, can companies from all countries engage in free trade? Can people freely express their opinions and freely choose their favorite social software? Can enterprises freely choose their trading partners?"
The new President... did she dare say no?
She feared that if she said no...
She would be 'harmlessly processed' the very next second.
But now, a warship was hanging over her head...
She wanted to cry. Why did she even bother? She hadn't even tasted the flavor of power as President before having to take the blame.
Decisions had to follow the lead of those in The Consortium, and she didn't dare offend the voters. Now, for banning one foreign company, the country had been demilitarized.
At this moment...
She decided to let it all go to hell. This old lady isn't being President anymore! Whoever wants it can have it!
But for now, she couldn't leave yet.
"I... I will go sign the Presidential Order right now. America... welcomes enterprises from all countries to engage in free trade! We support the freedom of speech granted to everyone by the Constitution..."
"Very good..."
After Gao Yuan finished speaking, the warship began to ascend!
The goal had been achieved.
Now only the final step remained.
Announcing responsibility for this incident!
Soon, the video of the new American President's conversation with Gao Yuan in her office was posted on Douyin International Version...
At this time, Gao Yuan was piloting the Interstellar Warship toward the Asteroid Belt.
Since he was already here...
He might as well go see Gao Qiu. The obstacles in the Real World had been cleared; the American President had been forced to sign a treaty under duress and open the country's doors. After this, everything would proceed according to his original plan, starting with the Pig-Raising Trio.
Domestically, the medical industry needed reform, and Life-Sustaining Base Fluid was about to hit the market...
As for the rest!
That would depend on what Gao Qiu wanted to do after they met.
Gao Yuan had met Gao Gan before, but what Gao Gan said was too general. Furthermore, on the Earth of the Future World, Gao Yuan felt it was too difficult to break the monopoly of the Big Three...
The people of Earth had been raised to have no fighting spirit. To unite them, their concepts had to be changed first, while simultaneously uncovering the truth about Earth's nuclear radiation.
While Gao Yuan was on his way to the Asteroid Belt...
Earth was in an absolute uproar.
Douyin International Version was going crazy...
Many people knew that the American aircraft carriers had been destroyed.
The Red Sea, the Pacific, and the American carrier bases...
One video after another spread on Douyin International Version! Some were joyful, while others were distressed!
Undercurrents surged all over the world.
America was now like a tiger that had lost its claws and teeth; its deterrent power was completely gone! At most, it could only intimidate its immediate neighbors.
The Polar Bear, Europa, East Asia, the Middle East... they all instantly broke free from American control.
In just half a day, the global situation had undergone a major reversal!
Now, YouTube, Twitter, and Douyin were filled with news about America's demilitarization.
There was also the speech by the new American President announcing full support for free trade...
The international affairs experts were all dumbfounded. Who could have imagined the situation would turn out like this?
However, they didn't dare to speculate on where the world was heading.
Because it was still uncertain what Gao Yuan would do next!
...
At the Black Fish Technology Industrial Park, Zhou Lei was drinking with Zhang Baiyi.
"Impressive, simply too impressive... Your President Gao is a god!"
Zhang Baiyi raised his glass, sighing inwardly that Gao Yuan had taken all the glory! He didn't know where he had gotten an Interstellar Warship, but Zhang Baiyi was no longer obsessing over it. Ever since he was kidnapped alongside Gao Yuan last time, he understood that even between brothers, there were some secrets one shouldn't ask about...
If you ask, the brotherhood might end.
"President Zhou, congratulations. This can be considered revenge for your Xiawei!"
"Haha, congratulations to us both!"
In Qinjing, Xia Country, Li Ming, the CEO of the Byte Company, was stunned. Was this the 'way' Gao Yuan had mentioned earlier?
This was way too fierce!
With this kind of power, why not just unify the world?
He had directly demilitarized America. America was a maritime power, but with its aircraft carriers blown up, even going out to sea would be difficult. Instantly, America had been marginalized.
The center of the world returned to the Eurasian continent!
At this time, many Xia Country enterprises were rubbing their hands in anticipation. Gao Yuan had forced open the American market; if they didn't go and stake their claims now, what were they waiting for?
How could America's local enterprises compete with them?
For companies that had fought their way through the Xia Country market to become leaders in their industries, going to America now was like a dimensional strike.
The only advantage America had left was in some heavy and military industries, along with the financial sector.
Now that they were demilitarized by Gao Yuan, many stocks on the American market were cut in half in a single morning...
Over ten trillion USD evaporated from the Nasdaq!
Capital was accelerating its withdrawal from the American market!
On various self-media platforms, the big influencers began making predictions.
'Reliable Eighth Master' was a well-known political self-media influencer with over ten million followers across the web.
Just now, he published a new article.
γIn the Post-American Era, Where Will the World Go?γ
America's demilitarization is a victory for Xia Country and a victory for Black Fish Technology.
Presumably, no one in the world ever thought Black Fish Technology would be this fierce.
But at ten o'clock this morning, the National Academy of Sciences released news stating that nuclear fusion and new battery technologies have entered the practical stage. The announcement of these two technologies means that a new era of world energy has begun.
The era of fossil fuels will eventually come to an end, just like America.
With America fallen, where will the world go?
I will make a bold prediction...
The Polar Bear will increase the intensity of its special military operations. The loose European Union, now without American support, must be feeling incredibly panicked...
They don't know how large the Polar Bear's appetite is. Will it recreate the glory of thirty years ago?
Therefore, in a state of extreme unease, the European Union is very likely to personally enter the war! It might be another long, drawn-out conflict.
And in the Middle East, without America... I predict that within three days, the Great Food People will definitely launch an attack on a certain Restorationism... and this time, the result will be very different! That Restorationism will most likely end up wandering again.
If we're talking about who is most panicked right now, it's probably several of Xia Country's neighbors!
No matter how you look at it, Gao Yuan is from Xia Country, and Black Fish Technology is a Xia Country enterprise! If they can demilitarize America, then disarming these surrounding neighbors would be a piece of cake!
And there is another heartening piece of good news... Taiwan Island... in one month at most, it will definitely return!
