Chapter 661 The Wild Waves of the Red Sea (End)(2/2)
baimeng.
At the beginning, his Spanish was very unproficient and he could only communicate with a mixture of English and sign language. Fortunately, Oliver was also very smart and learned languages very quickly. He only learned the most important words proficiently and then conveyed them.
To the farmers he knew...
But what I didn't expect was that the farmers in Sinaloa were so angry that when Oliver said the words "Violence is the only method" for the first time, it was like the emotions that had been suppressed for a long time finally burst out.
They all started cursing in Spanish, and then decided to join the movement.
Later, Oliver learned that this was also related to the Mexican government's recent policies and the local situation.
Before that, the Mexican government had capital controls, which meant that foreign capital could not enter Mexico at will. However, in 1989, this year, the Mexican government abolished capital controls and a large amount of foreign capital poured into the country, including many short-term speculations.
invest.
Anyone with a little knowledge of economics should know that foreign investment will make up for the current account deficit and will also increase the value of the country's currency. However, once the currency value increases, the competitiveness of Mexico's exports will be weakened.
With foreign investment, the Mexican government has overestimated the risks posed by the current account deficit, which will lead to a larger deficit, which will require more foreign investment and the competitiveness of export commodities will become weaker.
When the current account deficit reaches a certain proportion of GDP, it will trigger a terrible collapse, and history has proven this. In 1994, the Mexican economic crisis swept the world.
When capital controls were first lifted, the first thing to be affected was agriculture, the local pillar industry. When foreign capital entered the country, in addition to investing in existing industries, the first demand was land, and farmers are land-based.
Not to mention, the Mexican government does not have the level to supervise all foreign investment. The first farmer Oliver knew had his land sold, but he was completely unaware of it, and the factory he built was an empty shell.
It opened but did not provide any jobs, so he and his wife were both unemployed.
He went to other places to make a living, and the situation was the same. There were displaced farmers everywhere, and workers with formal jobs faced similar situations. Local enterprises were squeezed out of their living space, but foreign-funded enterprises did not.
Provide them with better jobs.
Oliver discovered that these people had not read the theory, but they all realized a truth through their own experiences, that is, in the face of this situation, only violence is the only method.
The theories and extraordinary wisdom brought by Oliver made up for their last shortcoming, so the peasant and worker movement in Mexico began with great vigor.
However, at this time, Oliver was not the Green Arrow. He had only been on the desert island for a few months, not a few years. His martial arts had not yet been honed to a very good level. Although he had used underground passages and local people familiar with the situation to
The advantage allowed them to achieve a temporary tactical victory, but soon the situation became difficult.
The U.S. government, the Mexican government, and even drug traffickers have all united to suppress them. The lack of force is the most important issue. Oliver has almost torn through the books, but the theories he has read tell him that there is no future in applying mechanically.
Yes, he must find a way out on his own.
But at this moment, Clark, who wanted to collect facts, came here...
Again, Clark is not stupid at all, he is very smart, smarter than everyone in the world.
He only needs to carefully observe everyone's living conditions in the sky, and then he can come to the conclusion that the resistance of farmers and workers is normal and deserved. Anyone in this environment should resist.
After coming to this conclusion, Clark certainly wanted to help them, but he knew that killing all the drug dealers would not solve the problem, so he began to look for a better way. At this moment, he discovered
That strange activity and underground organization.
When Oliver and Clark met, they were like old friends. When asked, Schiller arranged for you to come here, and Schiller arranged for me to come here, so what else is there to say? Just work hard.
The arrival of Clark has made up for the most fatal problem of strength. Flying, clairvoyance, infinite strength, and the eyes can emit heat rays. Even as a scout, he has every advantage.
In an instant, the situation was reversed, and Oliver's side became an aggressive one. At the same time, more local people who had suffered greatly joined in, and the movement became more and more passionate and louder.
Unsurprisingly, Congress panicked.
"What? Remove all surveillance personnel and invest them all in Mexico? Is Congress crazy?" Kayla said loudly to the other end of the phone: "There are more than 300 important surveillance targets on the entire east coast. If they are all removed,
, what should we do with the intelligence at this stage?”
"Intelligence? Without Mexico, the next one is the United States. Without the United States, what's the use of having intelligence?" The voice of the person on the other end of the phone was very cold. He said: "We have activated the highest level of emergency preparedness. Even Moscow's
Many people have been withdrawn. Do you think the metropolis is more important than Moscow?"
“All the people in Moscow have been withdrawn??!
"Keira said in disbelief: "What about the congress and the inauguration ceremony in a few days? Don't we need people to keep an eye on us?"
"The overall situation has been decided." The person on the other side uttered a few words without emotion. He said: "We have completed all the work. If there had not been an accident in Mexico, the war would be over now."
Kayla took a deep breath and said, "...I'll make arrangements right away."
She hung up the phone, closed her eyes, and murmured to herself: "The overall situation has been decided... Yes, the overall situation has been decided."
"The overall situation has been decided?"
Another voice with a smile was blown away in the wind on the west coast and slowly disappeared without a trace.
On May 25, 1989, the First Plenary Session of the Soviet Union was held, and Mikhail Sergeyevich Gorbachev was elected Chairman of the Supreme Soviet of the Soviet Union.
