Homo sapiens

Although faced with the arrogant behavior of Homo sapiens Corporation, the free world chose to swallow its anger.

But that doesn't mean they just let it go.

In order to prevent the expansion of the Homo sapiens company's offshore scientific research platform, they also hurriedly mobilized ships, especially old-fashioned offshore drilling platforms, and placed them next to the sapiens company's offshore scientific research platform, and then used this as a basis to start reclamation and land reclamation.

The two sides were chasing each other in the coastal waters of various places just like playing Go.

The Coral Construction Group, which is deliberately looking for trouble, also competes with the four major forces for production capacity and engineering strength on the shallow sea shelf.

Off the coast of New York, in addition to a few waterways, both sides have built several offshore platforms, and they are all close together. The distance between the two nearest platforms is less than 10 meters.

It’s all on the high seas anyway, and anyone can set up an offshore platform here.

On the huge platform intentionally named Outer New York Scientific Research Station, the area has now expanded to 12.3 square kilometers. It is like a huge fortress blocking the gate of New York Harbor, making the Council of the City on the Hill extremely frustrated.

On the outer New York scientific research station.

Cortes, who had just gotten off work, was having a barbecue with a few colleagues next to a platform 100 meters above the sea.

Not far away, about 68 meters away, there is an offshore drilling platform parked on the sea. This is an old equipment that is close to being obsolete.

The dozen or so American soldiers stationed above were also eating, but it was too shabby over there.

After all, these drilling platforms were pulled over in a hurry, and some weapons had to be installed on them, which caused the space above to be obviously insufficient.

Several American soldiers stood on the temporarily transformed observation deck, holding binoculars and observing the situation on the opposite side from time to time.

In February, the sea off New York lost the blessing of the North Atlantic warm current, and the temperature was below zero.

The observation tower with air leakage in all directions could not block the cold wind at all. Several soldiers had to wear heavy coats and were shivering from the cold.

"Fake! Those bastards are eating barbecue."

"Here, have a drink." An older, bearded sergeant handed a tin can of rum to the watchman.

The lookout hesitated: "Isn't it bad to drink on duty?"

"What are you afraid of? Don't take it too seriously." The bearded sergeant didn't care: "Don't you know what's going on now? The old man is holding the little girl and enjoying himself. Let's blow the cold wind here."

"..." The young lookout was silent for a moment, then took the tin can and took a sip of rum: "Huh... feel good!"

"Here, eat some beef jerky." The bearded man handed over another pack of beef jerky.

The two were drinking and eating meat on the observation deck.

On the opposite platform, Cortez and others were having a barbecue. They also placed a large box of synthetic steaks that had just been flown in on the large barbecue grill and sprinkled them with black pepper and salt.

I cooked another big pot of cream of mushroom soup, grilled vegetables and the like.

The aroma of barbecue wafts in the sea breeze.

The fragrance was also smelled on the US military drilling platform not far away.

"It smells so good! Homo sapiens company is so rich!" The watchman took a bite of the dry beef jerky.

The bearded man leaned against the window and spread his hands with a smile: "America also has money, but it's a pity that it's not ours. We can't use those coffee machines that cost tens of thousands of dollars each."

Suddenly the lookout hand looked around, and then whispered: "Kev, I heard that many people from Texas sneaked over to Aztec. Isn't your hometown in Texas?"

"What? Do you have any ideas?" The bearded man took the bottle and took a sip.

"Haha, brother, don't you have any ideas?" the watchman asked with a half-smile.

The bearded man did not deny it, and took another sip of rum: "Many people who ran from Central America in the past have left one after another. I feel that there is no hope for America's future."

Watchman felt the same way. He had watched the Homo Sapien Company's offshore platform expand rapidly in the past few days.

With America's nearly half-broken industrial chain at this time, it would have collapsed long ago if the Europa Consortium and Seris hadn't supplied some of its products.

After all, America's economy has too much water.

After crazy money printing, GDP barely recovered to US$25 trillion last year.

It's a pity, just look at America's GDP.

Even though the Industrial Revitalization Act, Plastics Crisis, Military Industrial Reorganization Plan, and Climate Response Plan have increased the scale of industrial production in North America, America's local industry only accounts for 18.3% of GDP. .

The core of America is the tertiary industry, with the service industry accounting for 67.5%.

This is an extremely deformed economic structure.

The industrial scale is less than 60% of Seris, let alone comparable to that of Homo Sapiens Company. After all, the industrial scale of Homo Sapien Company is about 24 times that of Seris and about 40 times that of America.

Adding up the entire free world, its industrial size is still less than one-tenth of the size of Homo sapiens corporations.

Doesn’t the Council of the City on a Hill know the importance of industry? They know everything.

The problem is that America has accumulated a lot of internal problems, and financial services, medical services, lawyer services, and accounting services in the tertiary industry are the core industries.

This kind of real food and clothing depends on the millions of workers.

America has more than 600,000 certified public accountants, more than 1.2 million registered lawyers, and a large number of financial practitioners. These people are all middle-class and small-rich people.

And these people are also the core components of the dog-legged subgroup of the City on the Hill Council.

Even if the major families in the Council of the City on the Hill are determined to revitalize industry, they can only adjust slowly step by step.

The problem is that Homo sapiens companies and global cooling do not give time!

Those ordinary people are already extremely disappointed with America's current situation.

Including ordinary soldiers of the US military, they are essentially a group of mercenaries. Mercenaries can fight with the wind going smoothly, but once they encounter a headwind, they will easily be exposed as a mess.

Bearded Man and Watchman had no intention of fighting the Homo Sapiens Company for America and the Free World.

Now the two of them are thinking about how to retire early and then go to Central America to join the Homo sapiens company.

Seeing that America is a broken ship and is already leaking, the shipowner is helpless, and the senior management is inactive. The middle management not only has no way to plug the leaks, but is desperately digging and nailing the ship.

As an ordinary sailor, what do you think?

Moreover, there happens to be a nuclear-powered spaceship next door, and the other shipowner also offers very good recruitment conditions for ordinary sailors.

No need to think about it?

Jump directly.

Even if he held a lifebuoy and swam across, it would be better than waiting to die in America, a rotten ship.

That's what Beard and Lookout are thinking now.

Just a few thousand dollars a month, why are you working so hard?

As the Homo sapiens company pressed forward step by step and pushed its full-power branch to the Aztec region, many people within America began to get ready to take action.

Especially in the states bordering the Aztecs, there are many people who abandoned their cars and houses and went to work for Homo sapiens companies.

The unusually extreme weather, coupled with the genetically modified corn allergy incident at the end of last year, forced many people to run away.

The hearts of the people in the free world are scattered, and the millions of Dracos, plus their henchmen, cannot stop the change of ordinary people's ideas.

After all, it is really difficult for these guys to give up their wealth and superiority. The greed of human nature means that they are destined to be unable to spit out the meat they eat.
