In Marvel's Kamen Rider Chronicle

Chapter 64 Economic Crisis and Devil City

"Approved by the Congress, the first batch of military equipment to support Israel arrived in the capital of Israel yesterday..."

--------

"This wave of your Stark Industries should be profitable." Ranger said to Howard while eating a hot dog.

Howard curled his lips: "Honestly, I'm disgusted with the decisions made by those gentlemen in Congress this time."

You Qi spread his hands: "But you can't resist, and you also know why those old men did this."

Howard pursed his lips and stopped talking.

Ranger pushed another hot dog on the side towards Howard: "Eat something first, I won't have a chance to eat later."

Howard rolled his eyes: "Actually, I still don't understand why you must pull me."

You Qi smiled: "If I said at the press conference that my company is rich, those reporters and the audience who watched the press conference would definitely not believe it.

But if you come with me, you don't need to answer questions, you just need to sit next to me, and those people will naturally believe it. "

Howard is even more strange: "Didn't you tell me before that you are very confident in the future of money in the emerging industry of games?"

You Qi took it for granted: "Yes, I am very confident."

"Then why do you insist on pulling me? If your prospects are really good, there must be no shortage of people who will throw money at you."

Hearing this, Ranger stretched out his finger and shook it: "Tsk tsk tsk, no no no, Mr. Howard, this is the point, this is the point!

My company, my, me!of!understand?I don't allow anyone else to get my hands on my company!
Therefore, my company will not go public, because I know that once it goes public, those Wall Street bugs will come frantically like sharks smelling blood, and by then, I will have a lot of trouble.

Mr. Howard, I don't guarantee that I will do anything at that time. "

Ranger looked at Howard seriously.

Howard opened his mouth, and finally sighed.

"Okay, I see, I will support you."

"Hey, that's right. Believe me, Mr. Howard, I will not let you down."

And at this moment, Izzy pushed open the door and saluted the two respectfully: "Master Youqi, all the reporters from the press conference are here."

Ranger nodded, straightened his collar, and then looked at Howard aside: "Really don't you want to eat? The press conference will not be short."

Howard also adjusted his collar and shook his head: "No, I'll eat some cheeseburgers after accompanying you to the press conference."

You Qi immediately wrinkled his facial features together.

Cheeseburger, well, that thing actually tastes good, but the ranger really doesn't like this kind of thing.

The two adjusted their instruments for the last time, and then pushed open the door...

On this day, at the press conference, Youqi's company was officially announced and officially announced to the world. The theme of the press conference was Youqi's first-generation game console.

A square box and two handles are the whole console, and the game is installed in the cassette.

At this press conference, the game called [Space Wars] in the cassette attracted the attention of countless people once it was released.

--------

When Howard came home, Tony Jr. was playing the game [Space Wars] in front of the TV with the controller in his hands.

It is said to be a space war, but it is actually a horizontal version of the pixel game.

The plane composed of dozens of pixels is controlled by the player, and then destroys the pixel plane flying from the other side.

To be honest, [Airplane Wars] is more suitable for this game, but the name is too low. It just happened that the beautiful country and Crisp United recently engaged in an aerospace competition, so they chose such a name.

Maria came over to take the suit Howard handed over, and asked with some concern: "Those people in Congress, did you make things difficult for you?"

Howard shook his head: "I'm only doing scientific research now, those gentlemen will not come to me unless necessary."

Maria frowned: "The war in the Middle East..."

Howard sighed: "We can't control the thoughts of those gentlemen on Capitol Hill, we can only take one step at a time."

When the two of them sighed, Little Tony on the side started to yell.

Howard walked over and took a look, good guy, the TV screen was full of various codes, and then looked down, the handle in Little Tony's hand was only a circuit board with soldered parts...

Howard raised his forehead, if the Ranger guy was here, he would definitely swell Tony's ass without saying a word.

This little guy actually directly dismantled the game released by Qiqi...

and many more……

Demolished……

Howard looked at the TV full of codes, and then at Tony who was removing the circuit board in the handle with his head down...

Gradually, Howard smiled.

Afterwards, he walked over and hugged little Tony, and whispered: "Perhaps, you are the best candidate to deal with Rangers..."

--------

After the ugly country publicly announced that it would send weapons to a certain Jewish country, many countries in the Middle East, a place where wars have been going on, passed a common resolution-to increase the price of oil.

Well, maybe this is all the painstaking efforts of Ugly Nation. Ugly Nation has really paid too much for so many countries in the Middle East to unite against itself. He really made me cry to death...

Cough, in short, the Middle East has become a mess because of the operation of the ugly country.

Accompanied by the rapid rise in the international price of oil, the whole world has been heavily affected by this wave.

Petroleum isn't just for refueling vehicles.

Petrochemical is a big category.

Even the rubber used in daily life, lubricants, some pesticides in agriculture, not to mention the military.

In short, due to the influence of ugly countries, the price of oil in the Middle East has risen in an all-round way, and the whole world has followed suit.

After all, the Middle East is arguably the world's largest oil-exporting region.

In the past, the price of oil was stable because one company wanted to increase the price, and the neighbor's oil would be sold better, so they would not choose to suddenly raise the price of one company.

However, this time, due to the operation of the ugly country, the major countries in the Middle East directly united and collectively raised prices.

In the end, the unlucky one is the whole world.

And the impact on ordinary people in Ugly Country is even more obvious.

Devil City, Mayor's Office:
John rubbed the center of his brow with a sad expression on his face.

"Dong Dong" knocked on the door.

John stood up quickly: "Come in, come in."

The door opened, and sure enough it was Frank.

"Why did you call me over so urgently?" Frank was puzzled.

"Look at this." John handed Frank a stack of documents.

Frank took it, looked at it for a while, and the veins on his forehead bulged slightly: "These bastards in the military area are really useless except for making a mess!"

What John gave Frank was a price list.

Due to geographical factors, there is definitely no shortage of seafood in Devil City, but correspondingly, there are no local production factories for many things here.

So many things have to rely on imports.

Looking at the purchase price that almost all increased by 50.00%, Frank knew why John was so worried.

After a long silence, Frank said harshly: "We have also raised prices, and all seafood exports have increased by 50.00%."

In the end, Frank whispered to John: "The prices of those washing powders have all increased by [-]%. If they have any objections, let them come to Devil City to find me."
