Chapter 1442 The First Day of the New Year

Originally, Penny wanted to ask something, but she was quickly attracted by what was broadcast on TV.

In this era of lack of entertainment, Lynch's program can not only satisfy the desire of the bottom of society to realize the federal dream, but also bring plenty of fun for everyone!

Yes, plenty of fun!

The game in the new season is not just about having a good body, but also fighting wits and courage with other players.

Since the organs of the entire track are controlled by other players, each player has multiple opportunities to break through.

If there is only one chance, it is too unfair, everyone has at least three chances.

For a track with more organs, there may be five, six, or even ten opportunities!

After each mechanism is activated, there will be a period of "cooling time", which is also to ensure that the players on the field will not frantically press the switch to make the mechanism continue to activate, making it impossible for the players to spend it.

So this is the core of the battle of wits!
You have to make the players on the field think that you really want to go, let them turn off the engine at not so correct time, so that there is a chance to rush!
And this has also brought a lot of joy to people, especially the scenes of those contestants being sent flying by various mechanisms have become a source of joy for people!
The competition is very anxious, everyone is working hard to move forward, after four months of competition, they finally came here, and now they are only one step away from the 100 million grand prize.

No one will give up at this time. They have been working hard. This kind of spirit is exactly what the Federation needs!

At any time, as long as the dream has not been extinguished, you should have the courage to fight!

courage!

This is the key word of this competition. Federal people need courage to face dreams, face reality, and even... war!
The race went smoothly, each player was knocked into the air by the mechanism, and until the last moment, no one was able to sprint to the end of the track.

Since the start of the second season, there have been a total of nine tracks, and no one has been able to reach the end of any track. This is simply a miracle!
Some people in the society think that the content of these competitions is too harsh, the mechanism has no rules (because it is controlled by other contestants), and it is too difficult to win the competition.

If it hadn't been for who was the closest to the finish line in the final competition to confirm the winner, I'm afraid someone would have fallen out!
Even so, some people were making trouble, and some people sued the TV station in court. For example, a young man who was eliminated was blown out by the mechanism.

He said that he had suffered terrible injuries and hoped that the TV station could compensate him 3 yuan.

But in fact, he was blackmailing. Lynch did not agree to compromise, but wanted to continue the lawsuit.

Not only to win, but to accuse the other party of extortion in turn, until the guy can't even wear pants!

On the screen of the TV, a very promising player has just successfully shaken the control switch through realistic fake moves.

Other players seemed to be blaming him, and he himself was very dissatisfied with his wrong judgment.

Every time a trap is passed, it means that there is an extra distance ahead of others, and the final decisive victory may be just a few meters away!
While speaking, the contestant was already approaching the next mechanism, and he already had some strategies in the process of running.

Every time before, he used various fake moves to deceive the players who controlled the buttons, allowing them to activate the mechanism in advance.

But this time, he decided not to do those feints.

In other words, if the real action is to be made like a fake action, as long as the person who controls the mechanism hesitates, he can pass the mechanism again in less than half a second!
Accelerate, lower your weight, he makes it look like he's actually sprinting!
Of course, he was indeed sprinting. Seeing that the next mechanism was right in front of him, the players off the field were also very nervous.

The moment he saw the players approaching the mechanism quickly without slowing down, he subconsciously tapped the button.

Fine electric sparks flickered between the contacts, and the next moment, a boxing glove-like mechanism suddenly rushed towards the contestant, and the contestant did not expect it.

Even if he wanted to slow down, it was too late.

Amidst the exclamation and laughter of the people, the contestant was sent flying back with a "one punch"!

After a few bumps on the soft track, his body fell into the pool.

This is also to protect the safety of the players!
When he was picked up, there was still some blood on his face, and his nose was severely punched by that fist.

Although the entire fist is made of sponge and rubber, it is not that hard, but it is not so pleasant to make a mechanical movement towards him during the sprint.

The players off the field breathed a sigh of relief, whispered to each other, and adjusted their strategies.

This scene made everyone in the audience feel... very interesting!
Whoever stands on the field is the enemy of everyone. These people will analyze that person, then find out his behavior pattern, and target him.

Off the court, everyone is a friend.

On the field, everyone is an enemy!
This strange feeling of constantly changing identities makes people feel very fresh, and is also fascinated by the ideas of the program designers.

After all the contestants finished their checkpoints, the final evaluation began. Everyone was so nervous that their hearts were about to jump out of their throats!
Penny lying on the bed rubbed her eyes, watching the game for more than three hours at a stretch was indeed a bit... tired.

She leaned on Lynch's chest, "Who won in the end?"

"I do not know either."

There was another short silence.

In the end, it was a sprinter who won the race, and he led all the competitors with a narrow six-meter score, thus winning the second season's million prize money!

The other contestants endured all kinds of discomfort to congratulate him, which is always memorable for a long time.

Lynch also let out a deep sigh.

He turned around and opened the bedside table, took out a cigarette from it, and lit it.

The girl lay down in a different position, more or less envious, "I can get 100 million in one fell swoop, this guy is really lucky."

Lynch couldn't help laughing when he heard that. Almost everyone thought that 100 million was 100 million after tax. These people didn't think about the current tax rate so high, how could it be 100 million after tax?

When Penny learned from Lynch that the real prize money of the competition was 100 million before tax, she couldn't help but laugh too.

During the state of war, the federal government raised the tax rate, and the bonus of 100 million yuan was only about [-] yuan.

This may be a better proof that there is always an insurmountable gap between dreams and reality!
Watching the champion raise his arms and cheer, Lynch was suddenly curious about what kind of new expression he would show when he knew he still had to face a choice.

On the first day of the new year, the sky is not yet bright.

Outside the largest oil field in the Federation, a group of people suddenly appeared.

These people covered their heads with only their eyes exposed.

At this time, the weather in the north is more than ten degrees below zero, and few people are working outdoors. The huge mechanical arm on the oil field is still slowly lifting.

Every time it is pulled, crude oil will enter the tank through the pipeline.

This is one of the lifeblood of the Duncan family's cash. The oil produced here is enough for them to do a lot of things every day, and the purpose of these people here is to temporarily suspend work here.

These people didn't talk too much, and they moved very quickly. They quickly solved some patrolling teams and began to destroy these mechanical arms.

It is not an easy task to destroy the oil mine itself. The only thing that can be guaranteed is to destroy the mechanical arm, and then destroy the pipeline and oil tank.

To repair these things is not something that can be done in three to five days, it requires a lot of time and labor.

It was winter at this time, and transportation was inconvenient. Once the oil field was shut down, repairs would have to wait until at least April and May.

There is a gap of four or five months, even the Duncan family will suffer a lot.

The more it is like now, the more expenses the Duncan family will spend.

Everyone knows that they are facing big troubles now, and if they still want to help them at this time, it is not for their support and influence, but for money!
Moreover, if they have less money, they still can't do it. They must have a lot of money.

Just like the whistleblower in the FBI, the reason why he dared to do this was for the benefit!

He may face three to five years in prison, but hundreds of thousands may have been transferred into an account that no one knows overseas!
This is money that he may not be able to make in three to five years, or even three to fifty years!

The more time passes, the more serious the situation of the Duncan family is, and the more places they use their money!
At around [-]:[-] in the morning, mining machines No. [-] and No. [-] exploded, and other mining machines also suffered from various problems and were damaged.

The oil storage tank leaked, the pipeline pressure detection changed dramatically, and it was suspected to be interrupted...

It takes a long time to build these things, but not so much time to destroy them!
In winter, just as the sky lightened at seven o'clock, the butler knocked on the door of Mr. Geruno's bedroom.

After a few minutes, Mr. Geruno opened the door in his pajamas and a coat.

"what happened?"

he asks.

At this time, Mr. Geruno was not as energetic as he was at the shareholders meeting of the United Development Company a few years ago, his face was full of fatigue, and he looked even older.

The housekeeper's expression was serious, "The oil field was destroyed by someone, and the specific loss is not clear, but we may not be able to pump out oil in a short time..."

The war is imminent, and oil is a strategic material. As long as you have crude oil in your hands at this time, no one will care who you are, where the oil comes from, and why you want to sell it.

As long as you have these things, they are willing to buy it.

And this is also the main source of income that supports the Duncan family's dealings with the federal government. Although the Duncan family is huge, they also need to spend a lot, and the working capital in their hands is not as sufficient as imagined.

This bad news made the winter morning even colder. Mr. Geruno's expression was slightly painful, and he coughed, completely subconsciously.

"Wait until I get dressed..."
