Tower Defense Strategy - Chapter 292
Throughout August, the surface damage was still not controlled. The direct death toll was about 13 million. By the first day of September, there were three second-level monsters that had not been wiped out, or they were hidden in the sea or dense forests. Search place.
Although most of the deaths are provided by underdeveloped regions, it is also related to the supply of food, fruit, coffee and other materials.
After August, the grain output in various parts of the northern hemisphere this year was basically fixed. Compared with last year, the output of staple food was reduced by 120 million tons, and the output of oil-squeezed crops and animal husbandry were also reduced to a similar degree.
Compared with the total global production, more than 100 million tons does not seem to be much, but the decline in material distribution capacity caused by the destruction of monsters makes the existing grain unable to be effectively distributed globally. It is expected that this year’s grain production will result in an increase of 400 million hunger next spring. population.
Counting the number of hungry people last year, it doubled in two years compared to before the crisis.
The increase in the number of hungry people will in turn reduce the amount of cash crops planted next year, and the textile and beverage industries will be in bad shape next year.
In fact, national-level think tanks have known that the situation is not good a year ago, but the world cannot face the future with desperation. The government will not actively suppress confidence until ordinary people can see that it is not good for themselves.
The foundation of the confidence economy is the illusory human mind. When the human mind collapses, the financial market will collapse, which will lead to the collapse of a large number of debt-oriented real industries, followed by widespread unemployment and a complete collapse.
The global economic problems have been extremely serious in the past two decades, and most currencies have become waste paper.
Ranked from small to large in depreciation, the top few are countries C and R, followed by a series of oil-producing countries, and the eighth is West Central Continent. The amount of money printed by nuclear power in country A is too large, even if a leek is cut. Ranked twelve, the depreciation rate exceeded 50% for two consecutive years.
The reason for the small fluctuation of country C is nothing more than industrial production capacity.
In today’s world, a large number of industrial products can be produced, and there are people lining up to exchange for things. The scale of the industry actually determines the confidence of the crowd, and all aspects of the market are relatively stable.
Country R’s situation is slightly special. In the past few years, she changed the portfolio of treasury reserves, increased the proportion of C currency, and increased the proportion of gold reserves. It was originally to prevent the depreciation caused by country A’s nuclear power banknote printing strategy. Bring it, I didn’t expect it to be effective in the monster crisis before the A coin collapsed.
Of course, even if there is no such adjustment, country R itself is a crude oil exporter. As long as it firmly adopts the exchange-for-goods transaction form, the depreciation will not be greater than that of some financial powers.
That’s right, the financial power mentioned here is the E country, which has only a small half left, and the last empire in history that never sets.
Fortunately, Country E is crashing early. If it survives to this day, all the officials will have to be pulled out by the masses and beheaded.
It is recognized as the place of origin of industry, and once the empire that never sets, it seems that it should have the most cutting-edge industrial capabilities in the world.
In fact, it was destroyed by the glory of the empire that never sets.
At its peak, the local money was so much that there was nowhere to go. Buildings, clocks and other decorative things were extremely luxurious. The lights for carriages had to use whale oil, and the money was still running out.
Later, a bank in the country piloted a stock exchange market overseas, cutting a round of leeks, and word of mouth among the nobles found that the profit rate of the physical industry was really boring.
Since then, Country E has been at the forefront of the world on the road of no return to finance.
Modern financial and physical industries are actually the relationship between parasites and hosts.
The secondary market can provide financing for enterprises, but in fact, most of the funds invested in enterprises through the secondary market are eaten by the financial industry, and a small part is used by corporate shareholders for personal arbitrage. The evidence only needs to look at the industry wages and the profit comparison between the two sides.
The more developed the finance, the more the products have more routines, the more meager the benefits of the entity enterprise, the loss of the enthusiasm of the actual operators, and the result of the change of hands of the enterprise is inevitable.
The plight of physical enterprises is well known to their peers. Therefore, they are often transferred to the hands of financiers. They don’t care about the development of the enterprise, as long as the books are enough for them to continue to cut leeks in the financial market.
The terrible environment cannot keep any aspiring entrepreneurs. Before the monster crisis, the industry of E country has declined to the extreme. It builds automobiles and uses “hundreds” as the annual output unit. The output unit of aircraft engines is “ten”, and heavy engineering. The machinery has no manufacturing capability at all, and even the launch vehicle that has been realized has been given up!
The 70 million people who basically have no physical industry still live a life of drunkenness and gold, and their essence is no different from colonization. They all rely on the whole world to **** blood to support themselves.
The routes of country A and country E are very similar, except that the nationwide gun-holding tradition left by the founding war, and later, out of persistence to the world’s status, cultivated a military-industrial complex. The industrial clusters surrounding this system have always maintained a certain scale, and they do not intend to sever themselves like Country E.
It’s a pity that country A was finally brought into the ditch by the endless greed of the military-industrial complex, fighting all over the world aimlessly, the debt piled higher and higher, and finally had to open nuclear power to print money. Then country A discovered that no matter how much money was printed by nuclear power, it could not flow into the entity enterprise. There was no increase in employment at all, and it was donated to the financial circle.
At this time, the proportion of assets in the financial circle is too large to collapse, and the money printing machine must be printed indefinitely until the desire for money overwhelms this young country.
The current depreciation of A currency is also based on this strange circle.
Everyone is not a fool. You should be more restrained in printing money. For the sake of its military strength, everyone is willing to believe that the paper stained with ink can buy things.
You have printed it indefinitely. All fools know that they want to use waste paper to buy raw materials and finished products to maintain internal prices. As long as they are not pushed on the forehead by the gun, the ratio of A currency transactions must be reduced.
It doesn’t matter whether it is industrial wastefulness or unlimited printing of money, it doesn’t matter now. According to the situation at this time, if the currency system does not collapse, the industrial system will suffer first.
The global industry has been developing for hundreds of years and still cannot get the monster baptism once a week. When the industrial system is completely stopped due to raw material problems, it is even more difficult to counterattack.
What is really important for human beings is still in the sky.
Kunpeng Space Station.
At the beginning of September, the third stage of the gravity ring, which is the outermost ring, has completed the construction of supporting structures. In the months after the completion of the second gravity section, the personnel in the station are mainly responsible for the interior and exterior decoration of the space station.
The second-level gravity section has two floors, which is 30% wider than the first-level. It is still not the final rest area for personnel. However, the outer ring has a relatively large amount of engineering and cannot be closed in the short term. Some areas are the main duty area and work area.
Although it is located in a very empty synchronous orbit, only the lunar surface base can be relied on after the surface incident. In order for the Kunpeng Space Station to operate more sustainably under unexpected circumstances, a certain amount of production and resource reuse capabilities are still required.
Limited by conditions, the production and reuse scope of the Kunpeng Space Station is relatively narrow, and the equipment is simpler.
In terms of production, it is mainly food processing. In addition to the conventional water, oxygen, and carbon cycles, the reuse only involves four designated steels and three designated plastics.
Narrowing the scope to this point, the population of the Kunpeng Space Station is also relatively limited, and reclassification of garbage is not a particularly difficult task to complete, and the ground has customized rules for this, and naturally also takes into account the need for automatic sorting.
The four kinds of steel are one kind of food grade stainless steel, two kinds of corrosion-resistant steel, and one kind of titanium alloy steel. The degree of magnetization of these steels is completely different. After cleaning, the automatic screening can be completed by a magnetic levitation.
Plastics start from transparency and color, plus relevant thickness standards, which are also easy to identify with machines.
These machines were all placed in the secondary gravity section. Considering that they would affect the center of gravity during deployment, the Kunpeng space station was stopped three times for one and a half months.
Human beings are not creatures designed for space conditions. They are very harmful to the body in a gravity-free environment. The muscles can be supplemented by exercise equipment. The function of the heart and other organs is weakened, and it is inevitable.
Even if it is 0.1 times the gravity of the first stage of gravity, as long as the blood flow is directed by gravity, the health level can rise.
When the outer circle is renovated, as the total mass of the Kunpeng Space Station increases ~www.mtlnovel.com~ the center of gravity shift will have a greater impact. For this reason, the Kunpeng Space Station also has a new column mobility management system.
This management system actually splits the axis column section of the space station into three parts, and the hatch connected to the rotation area is changed into a new type of hatch, which can deviate with the axis and rotate with the other column section. But keep the axis of this column unchanged.
The maximum center offset distance can reach forty centimeters, which does not seem to be much, but for a space station of several thousand tons, there is already enough equipment and material transfer margin.
Another exterior decoration is to refit the three column sections with new-type plasma thrusters and related external three-proof battery compartments.
This change is also out of material considerations.
With the original RCS system, as the weight of the front and rear sections gradually increased, and the core docking cabin was added to the front section, there was still a need for cargo to be carried. If it was separated several times, it would lose a 3.35-meter rocket. After losing contact with the ground in the future, the amount of material loss during space station maintenance is absolutely unbearable.
Plasma electric propulsion also needs more opportunities to be practical before it can have the next generation. Therefore, even if this thing is not suitable for RCS system, it is still strong. Anyway, if there is a problem, there is still a single component system that has not been removed to make up.
