Chapter 5799999.11

At 9 a.m. New York time, fifteen minutes after the first American Airlines flight 11 hit the north building of the World Trade Center, Americans who had not been attacked by other countries for a century woke up from their dreams. This was a terrorist attack!

The long-term peaceful environment has made many American political agencies slow to respond. The Federal Aviation Administration (FAA), which is in charge of civil aviation flight management across the United States, issued an order one hour later, banning all aircraft flying to or through New York airspace in the United States from taking off, because a Russian Tu-154 passenger plane crashed not long ago, and many people in other parts of the United States thought that this was just another plane crash until the order was issued.

After screening, Faa found that at least three civil aircraft taking off from Newark and Washington could not be contacted. It can only be assumed that they had been hijacked. It was already confirmed that the impact on the World Trade Center was a premeditated terrorist attack, but Faa issued a warning at this time.

At 9:02:54, another flight 175 belonging to United Airlines flew over the Hudson River low. Obviously, the pilot of the aircraft was not good. In the words of the Yahuang TV live broadcast host, "It almost flew over by his hair, and almost passed by the target World Trade Center South Building." Finally, the plane adjusted for a while, and finally plunged into the 78th to 84th floors of the South Building, causing a huge explosion. The plane engine was even hit several blocks away. Due to the accidental collision, the impact point was lower than that of the North Building, so the South Building that was hit later collapsed before the North Building.

About twenty minutes later, American Airlines flights 77 once again hit the West Wing of the Pentagon, a major American city in the suburbs of Washington. At this time, news that someone launched a large-scale terrorist attack on the United States had spread all over the world. In addition to the live broadcast of the reporters from Asia-Phone Taiwan on the front line, reporters from internationally renowned media such as the American CNN and the British BBC also rushed to the near World Trade Center and played the scene of two buildings in the World Trade Center emitting thick smoke to all over the world. New York residents looked panicked and wolves ran into the tomb.

At 9:24, after receiving the news, President Bush, who was visiting a primary school in Florida, hastily delivered a speech about the country being attacked by terrorists. After officially announcing that the country was in full war alert, he was taken into a secret defense facility by the guards. Subsequently, a large number of senior political officials, including Vice President Cheney and Secretary of Defense Rumsfeld, were also evacuated to various fortifications, and the White House and the Capitol were empty.

Although many people have attacked the United States Bush, who has been greedy for death since then, this kind of defense is necessary and predictable. At 10:03, Faa found that a United Airlines flight that lost contact finally crashed in southeastern Shanksville, Pennsylvania.

After the police's investigation of the black box on the plane showed that the passengers on the plane learned that the plane had been hit by a plane at the World Trade Center in New York, and did not want to die and decided to fight back. In the end, the plane crashed in advance in the fight with terrorists. According to the route, the target of the plane was either the White House or the Capitol!

Faa immediately further upgraded its alert level, closed its airspace, prohibited any civil flights from taking off, all flights flying must immediately land at the nearest airport, and all international flights to the United States will be changed to Canada immediately. This is the only emergency measure in the history of the United States to stop all commercial flights in the United States without any plans. It has always been surrounded by two oceans and is far away from the war attacks. The first time the Americans who felt danger was around them, fear clouds shrouded in the hearts of every American.

The next scene was deeply imprinted in the hearts of every American. At 9:59 am, the South Building of the World Trade Center, which was hit late, began to collapse first. Through live broadcast on the TV station, hundreds of millions of viewers around the world witnessed this shocking scene with their own eyes. There was a real sadness of "watching him up a tall building, watching him entertain guests, and watching his building collapse."

Half an hour later, the World Trade Center North Building, which had been burning for a long time, although the impact point was high, the plane was slow, and the fire protection system on the affected floor had just been partially updated for a while, it still could not resist the rampant fire demons. It slowly collapsed from top to bottom. The fragments and huge smoke caused by the collapse covered multiple blocks, causing many bystanders to scream and run away. Most of them were covered with thick layers of smoke and dust, which looked like they had crawled out of hell. Many people with mental breakdown simply fell on the side of the street and cried loudly to vent their emotions.

The continued panic and the temporary absence of leaders have put the whole country in chaos in the United States. People in other countries have temporarily abandoned their dissatisfaction with the United States, expressed almost unanimously sympathy and condolences, and wished the American people to cheer up from their sorrow as soon as possible. After a brief chaos, the United States' strong foundation of strength began to respond quickly, and emergency plans were quickly released.

In the afternoon of the same day, the United States declared a state of emergency for the global U.S. military. Two aircraft carriers entered the port of New York and five warships sailed into the east coast to deter all sides. At 4:25 pm, the New York Stock Exchange and the U.S. Stock Exchange both announced the closing of the market from September 12. At 8:30 pm, US President Bush suddenly appeared at the White House and delivered a televised speech to the whole country.

In his speech, he said, "Terrorism attacks can shake the foundations of our largest building, but cannot touch the foundations of the United States. These terrorist actions destroyed steel, but could not weaken the strong determination of the United States as steel as slightest." The president's courage and speech quickly won the support of the people, causing the president, who reached the throne by counting votes by controversial votes, to suddenly rise to an astonishing height of 89%.

Immediately afterwards, the president met with all members of the National Security Conference and met with senior advisers half an hour later. Based on the judgments of various intelligence units, it was determined that the leader of the al-Qaeda bin Laden, who was hiding in Afghanistan, was the mastermind behind the attack. The government quickly reached a retaliatory military action on the fight against al-Qaeda in Afghanistan and the Taliban that sheltered them.

More importantly, although the White House has no evidence to prove that there is a direct connection between the relatively open Iraqi Saddam regime and the al-Qaeda, which believes in Islamic fundamentalism, Bush is obsessed with the Saddam regime that his father failed to deal with, and decided to take the opportunity to overthrow the Iraqi regime in the name of fighting terrorists. The inertia of history once again entered the orbit in Yang Xing's memory.

The "911" incident in New York made Yang Xing and his men sit all night at their headquarters in Hong Kong without missing every progress in the live broadcast. Starlight Entertainment ordered all employees in the United States to stop taking vacations. Even if they were unable to fly, they would have to rush to Washington, New York, Boston and other cities on the East Coast to grab news on site, striving to obtain exclusive information. The exclusive news captured by Yahuangtai New York this time has already made them run ahead of their competitors.

It was not until after listening to President Bush's White House declaration that Yang Xing let go of his clenched fists, his palms were filled with sweat, and he knew that the situation was settled. He was not worried that if the terrorist attack did not happen or the attack failed. The plan based on his memory was a slight mistake, and now the stubborn God of History was finally on his side.

"Send a signal and start to do it." He sighed and ordered his men to do everything he could. What will happen next depends on God's will. The most important thing in the plan is the attack on "911" day, because the US securities market will be forced to close for three days, and economic losses and panic in the hearts of the people are the best chance for Yang Xing to take action.

After the "9/11 incident", the US economy was once paralyzed. The World Trade Center located on Manhattan Island, New York is a skyscraper built in the early 1970s. It cost up to US$1.1 billion. It is the center of the world's commercial activities. There are as many as 1,200 companies from all over the world. There are usually 50,000 people working, and about 150,000 business personnel and tourists every day.

The two skyscrapers suddenly disappeared, and the loss of talent alone caused heavy losses to many companies, not including the burning of important documents such as corporate documents and customer information. Compared with the Pentagon, which suffered smaller losses, hundreds of casualties were killed or killed, but the restoration work also required at least hundreds of millions of dollars. The losses of the World Trade Center can be imagined.

The international financial markets also fell into chaos due to this emergencies. New York and other US stock markets wanted to announce a one-day closing, but the chaos forced managers to extend it to three days. "911" happened on Wednesday, which means that the United States will not open until next Monday. Many important financial markets around the world have also been affected. The London Stock Exchange has to evacuate in order to prevent it from becoming the next target of terrorists.

In this situation, the sudden emergence of short-selling financial derivatives contracts for U.S. stock futures and options in the Asian and European markets were mixed in this turbid market tide, and the market did not pay attention until the reopening of the United States on Monday. Far away in the command center temporarily built in an abandoned warehouse in Hong Kong, Yang Xing and a large group of people were nervously staring at the changes in the world financial market displayed on several large LCD screens. Seeing that many short-selling contracts were put into the market and were turbulent, but they did not cause too much reaction from market supervision. They breathed a sigh of relief and the first step of the plan was considered successful.

In addition to Yang Xing and Qian Yiming, these people also have representatives from the State Administration of Foreign Exchange, the State Export-Import Bank, the China Investment Management Fund and several major state-owned commercial banks. This was an additional condition for the central government to agree to support Yang Xing's 300 billion US dollars plan at that time, and wanted some financial officials to observe Yang Xing's on-site operations, which also made Yang Xing have the idea of ​​letting Xingkong manpower train domestic professionals.
