Zhongming Bird Studio, the research and development location of "Endless Starry Sky".

Although Ogg and Kirkel had met and talked before, it was the first time that he came to the site of Shigeming Bird Studio.

However, their own expectations were dispelled by what they saw and heard on the road, and both of them felt a little heavy.

The car is still rented in the city, but the price is amazingly cheap. Originally, Ogg was still puzzled, but in the process of driving to the location of the Zhongmingbird studio, what the two people saw was a mountain of **** on the side of the road. Drunk office workers carrying bottles of wine, old people with a sad face gathered together in a fierce argument, young people who have been waiting for a long time at the bus stop but there is no bus.

Fang Xi was curious about it, so he asked Ogg to stop when he saw a Chinese who was obviously dressed as a tourist. He went down to talk with his compatriots to understand the situation.

After a short while, Fang Xi reopened the door and returned to the car with a heavy expression. Ogg was twisting his back and waist to the music. When he saw Fang Xi coming back, he turned the sound of the music down a bit and asked, "Boss, what's going on?"

"The Greek government may be going bankrupt recently." Fang Xi was a little disappointed, and his voice was a little heavy.

Ogg turned off the sound of the music when he said this, and looked a little sad when watching the confused Greek people on the roadside.

Of course, both of them have nothing to do with Greece. This country is also unfamiliar enough for two people. The reason for sorrow is just a little sympathy of watching the dramatic changes in these people's lives that are about to usher in an earth-shaking degree.

Nothing hurts its kind more than this.

The country is not a company, and it will not go bankrupt at every turn, but the country has the attributes of a company, so when it is insolvent, it can only declare bankruptcy. The reason for the bankruptcy of Greece is also interesting because it is too "generous" to its citizens. .

For a long time, the Greek pension system was a model that everyone knows to praise: the pension is 96% of the income before retirement, and the unmarried or divorced daughters of civil servants can continue to receive their pensions after the death of their parents.

Under this system, I would like to know that it is a great burden to the country. These pensions issued each year alone account for nearly 20% of Greece’s annual expenditure. Greece is a country without heavy industry and high-tech technology. Under the circumstances, there is news of bankruptcy only now, Fang Xi felt that it was also a miracle.

Of course, national bankruptcy will not be as good as a company’s bankruptcy. In fact, it’s okay if this is the case-national bankruptcy is credit bankruptcy. All countries or organizations that lend to Greece can hardly expect Greece to repay the money, or even not It may be said that the United Nations has been asked to enforce it against Greece.

However, these countries can sell the Greek currency in their hands to make their exchange rate plummet. The consequence is that the price of Greek domestic goods will rise rapidly, and then Greece will have to cut down on food and clothing, sell unimportant assets, and cut unnecessary investments. Together, everyone. Close the door and make a living, hoping that the economy will get better again.

There is no sign of bankruptcy, but this sign is enough for ordinary people to bring their good days to an end. For example, the pension in Greece must be changed.

Under such what they saw and heard, the two people came to the work station of Shiung Ming Bird.

The earliest Chongmingbird studio was located in the north of Athens, the capital of Greece, close to the mountains, and the environment was good and cheap. It was also the company's resident before the acquisition. One year after being acquired by Hongyi, Kirkl was ready to move the studio address to Piraeus at the end of last year.

This is a small island in southern Greece. The island is in front of the Mediterranean Sea, and behind it is the city of Athens. It has a beautiful view of the good time. The expensive one is the monthly rent.

However, under the impact of the wave of possible bankruptcy of national credit, this elegant and chic resort also has a somewhat depressed feeling.

Of course it was Kirkel who came out to greet him, but this unsmiling game madman in Fang Xi's impression also has a little worries on his face.

When shaking hands, Fang Xi patted Kirkel on the back of his hand to relieve him:

"Kirkel, I remember you are not Greek?"

Kirkel smiled and said: "I am not, but there are Greeks in the studio, but it has no effect on us. My recent bad state is mainly because the state of the Greek government has affected the daily operation of the studio. "

Kirkel spread his hands and smiled bitterly, breaking his fingers to complain to Fang Xi one by one:

"Last week, there were two power outages, which directly led to the loss of the results of the two days of work. Then this week, there will be water outages sometimes. Our studio still takes care of lunch, but the price has been rising recently. A pork chop is now It’s already 20 Euros."

"Three days ago, the landlord called and said that the rent should be increased. He directly said that the two-year contract we had signed before was invalidated. He had to increase the rent by 80%, and he could only sign a three-month short-term lease. After March, it will rise again by 80%, and he is no longer so exaggerated."

Fang Xi and Oge can only take a breath of cold air. This is not just a question of rising living costs, it is simply a dead end.

"What about your plans?" Fang Xi still looked at Kirkel in front of him, not knowing what his plans were. Withdraw the development progress of "Endless Starry Sky" and sell the operation of this studio.

Kirkel is certainly not so stupid, and he is not Greek, so he doesn't play that set:

"I have already applied to the head office a few days ago. The Chongming Bird Studio has already planned to relocate. Our temporary plan is to move out of Greece and we should not come back again. However, for the time being, we haven’t decided where to move, because There are already 400 people in the studio. This is a large group, and it's not easy to find a suitable place."

Fang Xi blinked. Originally, he planned to suggest that these people move directly to Huaxia. Not to mention 400 people. Even if there are 1,400 people, Beiyang City Government can happily arrange for you. I understand, but considering that these are all living people, even if Hongyi’s salary is a lot, I am afraid that at least half of them will not go to China because it is too far away for them, and "Endless Starry Sky" It is still being developed. If the number of people in the studio is reduced by half, the development progress may be delayed for two to three months or even six months.

So after thinking for a while, Fang Xi suggested:

"Otherwise, you go directly to Italy? I still know the prime minister of Italy. I don't know if he has stepped down... Geographically, Italy and Greece are not far away. It only takes an hour or two to fly by plane. How about you think about it? "
