Both Fang Zheng and Fu Gui have their own connections. One is a reporter and the other is a second-generation rich man. They have extensive connections with each other, and both of them have good IQs. It is certainly impossible for them to ask people if they are going to have a third world war. Or whatever, let’s not talk about the impact. It would be strange if others don’t regard them as mentally ill.
So the two of them were just asking for details they wanted to know, such as prices, whether the government was taking any actions, the situation in overseas markets, etc. In short, they were silently collecting some seemingly insignificant things. After three days, the two of them avoided everyone as if they were thieves, and secretly gathered in Fang Zheng's room.
Judging from the data, some warehouses have been vacated, mostly food warehouses, and there seems to be news that the National Central Grain Warehouse Reserve seems to be very busy, so I dare not ask for details.
Fugui first talked about his findings. As he spoke, he slammed the paper recording the data onto the table, and then said to Fang Zheng in a very serious tone: This is a sign of war. The country is storing food.
I also have some information here.
Fang Zheng did not answer Fugui's words directly, but directly opened his laptop and said: Some scientific researchers I know are missing. For example, the most famous one I once interviewed is a lifelong academician. I tried to learn from it. I started on this aspect, and then approached him. I originally planned to use the interview as an excuse, but who knew, but his unit shied away in every possible way. He mentioned which country he would go to for an exchange meeting, what kind of experiments he was doing, or that he had personal matters. In short, it was very abnormal. Then I contacted another foreign journalist friend of mine. In the name of doing a big science interview topic, I asked for information about several famous scientists in the United States. Then I found that they were also missing, and they were not Those who have disappeared in the past three days have disappeared five or six days ago.
Isn't this going to be a world war? Fugui asked as if he was about to roar.
Fang Zheng shook his head and said: "I don't think so. Although various signs look like a world war is about to happen, you have to know what the war is about now."
Money economy, national mobilization power or material wealth, asked strangely.
All. Fang Zheng wiped his glasses, put them on and then said: But what about oil? If there is no oil, how can we fight? Modern war machines, whether they are various warships, tanks or aircraft, can do without oil. But what happened recently? one thing
Fugui immediately asked strangely: What happened
Oil prices have dropped. Fang Zheng said seriously: Not only is the price of oil in country Z reduced, Japan, the United States, France, the United Kingdom, and even the entire Europe are reducing prices. What is strange is that neither OPEC nor Russia has any reaction. You may not know, But I asked a friend who plays futures to carefully analyze the oil price list in the past week. He told me that this is very abnormal. Although the price reduction is not large, the continuous downward trend is very obvious, or it is about to happen. New energy sources are announced, or new oil fields are suddenly discovered that are comparable to the oil reserves in the Arab region.
This is impossible. Fugui immediately said: I don't have much education, don't lie to me. The distribution of oil on the earth is also regular. Although I can't say that there will not be large oil fields similar to those in Arabia, there must be signs before discovery. Yes, there will definitely be signs after discovery. It may look like it does now. Wait, wait, could it be the island in your dream, where the oil field is located? Because it is on the high seas, the storage capacity is astonishingly large. , so it triggered World War III
Fang Zheng shook his head in denial and said: That will not reduce the price of oil. Even if such a large oil field is discovered, it has not yet been developed. The world's annual oil production is fixed, at least if there is a third world war, The price of oil will definitely rise, and it will definitely rise significantly. Only countries that have obtained this large oil field after the war can lower the price. And I think, even if such a large oil field is discovered, under nuclear deterrence, It is impossible for a third world war to happen. At most, it will be a proxy war, or rhetoric plus economic threats, so I am more inclined to this possibility than a third world war.
Oh, what is it? Fugui asked immediately.
natural disaster end of the world
Fang Zheng immediately said: Judging from what we know so far, this is the most likely situation. The first is food, which is necessary for human beings to survive. Have you played the Fallout series of games? There are also various kinds of food in them. And underground bunkers and other things also need food, so a large-scale transfer of food is necessary. As for oil, it requires a lot of land to store, and the use efficiency is very low. If it is a peaceful world, it will naturally be used on a large scale, but if it is natural If there is a disaster-type doomsday, oil will not be good. For a shelter like an underground bunker, the best energy source is nuclear energy.
As for scientists, it is easier to understand. The greatest wealth of mankind is actually the current civilization, science, and knowledge that can be improved. If there is a natural world disaster, humans can rule the earth again, and technology is well preserved. Yes, we can only rely on these scientists, so if such a doomsday really happens, scientists are more important than anyone else, and it is necessary for governments to transfer them. If they don't do this, I will be suspicious.
After saying this, both of them fell into silence. They were both thinking carefully about the logic of these words, and comparing them with their rationality. After a long time, Fugui said: It's really good. It's possible. So what kind of natural disaster can you guess? A meteorite, a reversal of the earth's magnetic field, or something like the day after tomorrow
not sure. Fang Zheng scratched his forehead and said with a headache: There are too few clues, and there are no signs. If that island is considered to be a refuge, how big can an island be? Even if we dig deep, it will be at the bottom of the sea at most. What if there is an earthquake or something and the sea water leaks downward? To be honest, it is better to build a shelter in the desert or high mountain area. This is why I am extremely puzzled. Or is there something special there? Or is it? Natural disasters are different than we think
The two of them began to think hard. Suddenly, Fugui slapped his thigh fiercely, stood up and said: Forget it, we can't think of a reason no matter how hard we think about it, so let's go to that island again.
How to Get There It is guarded by the Navy. Fang Zheng said helplessly.
It's impossible on the water, but what about under the water? Fugui smiled slyly, and then said: Do you still remember the mini-submarine system I bought? It can take two people, and it is quiet. Bring an oxygen bottle, and then dive near the high seas. Enter, what do you think
But Fang Zheng had to think more after all. He said with concern: This is not a movie or a place like this. The island must be heavily guarded. We will probably be shot as soon as we show up. We will die as hard as we can. ,not to mention
What's more, why are there so many? Fugui said loudly: There are so many worries at this time. Anyway, things like the day after tomorrow, the end of the world, meteorites, etc. do happen. Do you think we will be the lucky few? I don't dare. Guaranteed, but if we can prepare in advance, according to your connections and my family's financial resources, we can have a lot more chances of survival. Even if we cannot enter the government's shelter, we can go to deserts, mountains, etc. There is still no problem in the place, and the chance of survival is many times greater. In a word, whether to go or not
Fang Zheng also felt angry in his heart, not against wealth, but against the government. He immediately said: Okay, let's go without further delay. We will set off tonight. The diving system will be almost ready to use in the early morning tomorrow. Let's go to that island for a while
No matter what, the truth will be revealed
