Judith said, the poor countries' people working for a month still don't make as much as selling their blood once; naturally, this leads the poor to use blood sales as an economic means.
"So it seems it's not just aimed at us."
Lawrence pondered, he was only worried that Jieke Group's blood purchase might have some conspiracy, like the dangerous things such as gene weapons mentioned in the news media.
Although Beautiful Country is an immigrant nation, it has to guard against this; Jieke Group's genetic and biological technology is too famous, Beautiful Country is also very concerned about this.
"Mr. President, if we want to curb this Blood Gold industry, should we introduce some legislation to limit it."
Judith suggested, the current chaos has greatly embarrassed Beautiful Country.
"Of course we must strike, Beautiful Country is not the blood warehouse of Jieke Group."
Lawrence nodded and then continued: "But the strike must be restrained, don't hurt the innocent, domestic capital is also very difficult, focus mainly on Tijuana Group."
Judith's face stiffened, Jieke Group entices with high profits, but actually, the ones who truly produce and sell blood are the capital within Beautiful Country.
For example, prisons are a major disaster area, where a large number of prisoners have their blood extracted and sold shamefully, without any human rights.
If we don't tackle the sources, then it's very difficult to stop this chaos effectively, achieving an effective curb and strike is almost impossible.
But Judith is very wise, not a fool, silently nodding and agreeing: "I understand, I will handle the degree well."
Judith himself knows well, Beautiful Country is a capitalist nation, capital is king, those grey forces involved in Blood Gold have intricate links behind the scenes with upper capital of Beautiful Country.
Not to mention, Wall Street has created financial derivatives related to blood, banks lend to blood donors; the collateral is the blood donor's future blood in the coming years, as long as Jieke Group doesn't stop buying blood, this collateral value remains extremely stable.
However, those coming for blood loans are mostly the bottom tier of Beautiful Country, instability arises from the blood donors themselves; after all, Beautiful Country's 'drugs' are rampant, no one can guarantee, if the person will change to poisonous blood in the future, causing blood quality to drop and value to fall, or encounter various accidents such as disappearance, illness, death, resulting in loan recovery failure.
Considering the possibility of blood donors defaulting, banks to recoup quickly, package this loan into debt collateral bonds, then sell to investors and other financial institutions, the participation of large amounts of hot money and capital allows the Blood Gold industry to expand swiftly.
Bothers those capitalists' profits, let alone Judith, even the President's position won't be secure.
"Mr. President, Jieke Group continues the space race with us recently, their Kunpeng Rocket is still launching satellites, additionally they have expanded their space station, now Jieke Space Station's quality has reached two thousand tons, five times our International Space Station.
We must further increase NASA's funding, to ensure we win this space race."
NASA Director Burton squeezed his words, meaning simply: provide funds. 𝓃ℴ𝓋𝓹𝓊𝓫.𝒸𝓸𝓂
"This is being discussed in Upper Congress, now I only care about one issue, is Jieke Group about to collapse? They're digging the Kra Isthmus Canal, competing with us in space race, now globally buying fresh blood, will they play themselves into economic collapse?"
Lawrence tapped the table, his eyes looked at the two.
Burton spoke first, introducing: "In this year alone, Jieke Group has spent at least two trillion dollars in the space race with us."
Judith followed: "I've had people count the relevant data of Jieke Group's Blood Gold industry, currently the blood donors generated by the Blood Gold industry cover approximately 450 million people, Jieke Group spends at least more than six trillion dollars annually on this.
Hearing this, both Burton and Lawrence glanced.
Knew Jieke Group spends lavishly in the Blood Gold industry, but didn't expect so much money, no wonder it frenzied Wall Street's capitalists into involvement.
"So, annually over six trillion dollars, plus Jieke Group's military and other expenditures, eight trillion to nine trillion dollars per year, their fund pool should bottom out soon."
Lawrence squinted, Jieke Group's expenditure is nearly catching up with Beautiful Country's annual military budget, which is slightly over one trillion dollars annually.
"Yes, Jieke Group's flagship products hair growth liquid, Near-sighted Pill, and slimming pills, have earned vast wealth for them, but altogether, four to five trillion dollars annually, their accumulated funds are likely bottoming out, we just need to monitor if Jieke Group starts to exploit Southeast Asian countries, then we can judge Jieke Group's internal financial situation."
Judith also revealed a slight smile, if their economy falters, Jieke Group would either cut costs, stop the competition and blood buying, or exploit Southeast Asian countries, once Jieke Group makes such moves, CIA will immediately know Jieke Group's financial condition issues.
"Good, very good! Competing financially with us, can Jieke Group compete with us? Red Bear was dragged down by us back then."
Burton excitedly waved his fist, Jieke Group's rule in Southeast Asia can be maintained primarily through high welfare and military force.
