Heavy rains have hit the world's major producing countries. Global food production is in short supply. It is expected that there may be a food shortage this year! - The "Wall Street Journal" published a very explosive news on the front page.

As the Wall Street Journal reported, global grain futures prices surged. Rice, wheat, and soybeans all experienced increases of more than 20%. In an instant, various grain importing countries felt pressure.

According to the United Nations, there are 40 countries in global food shortage. Among them, 26 African countries (Angola, Burundi, Ethiopia, Guinea, Kenya, Liberia, Niger, Sierra Leone, Somalia, Sudan, Swaziland, Tanzania, Uganda, Zimbabwe, etc.

), 10 Asian countries (Afghanistan, Indonesia, Iraq, North Korea, Lebanon, Mongolia, Nepal, Pakistan, Sri Lanka and East Timor), 3 Latin American countries (Colombia, Cuba, Haiti) and the Russian Republic of Chechnya.

Of course, this refers to food-scarce countries. That is, the country relies heavily on food imports. In addition, there are other developed countries such as Canada and Australia, which are also large food-importing countries because of their national composition.

The rise in food prices has undoubtedly put a heavy pressure on these economically underdeveloped food-deficient countries. In recent years, the global food harvest has been in a state of bumper harvest, and food prices have been at a low level. The cheapness of food has made these underdeveloped countries, especially in Africa, feel a heavy pressure.

The country's economic pressure was relieved. However, the sudden surge of 20% in food prices made it difficult for countries that were not already economically prosperous.

Fortunately, this is just a report from the Wall Street Journal. Although the heavy rains around the world will definitely have an impact on grain production, it will not cause a serious reduction in production. As long as there is no serious reduction in production and a slight increase, they can still bear it. The big deal is that the domestic

People should eat less. For these underdeveloped countries, especially African countries, it is normal to not have enough to eat. Therefore, it is still acceptable if the increase is not too high.

I just hope that the weather will not continue to be bad and that the world's major food exporting countries will not have large-scale reductions in food production. Many food-scarce countries are praying silently.

"Lin, the food crisis is coming!" Abby Cohen called after seeing the report in the Wall Street Journal.

At this moment, Lin Feng had just returned to Shanghai.

"Oh, how can you see it?" Lin Feng snickered secretly, and Abby Cohen finally noticed it. But even if Lin Feng understands now, he can only pretend to be confused.

"Lin, did you read yesterday's report in the Wall Street Journal?" Abby Cohen said. "This report said that due to the impact of disaster weather, global food production will be reduced this year. And affected by this report, the production of food will be reduced."

Futures prices soared by 20%."

"Well, yes, I have read this report. But to use this to say that the food crisis is coming is a bit exaggerated! After all, the reduction in food production and the food crisis are not equated!" Lin Feng looked dismayed.

I believe it. But I feel very comfortable in my stomach. With Abby Cohen’s advice, making money will be fair and honest.

"Lin, after reading this report, I got the latest global weather forecast analysis report through a friend. As well as the weather reports from the past records, I found that there will be extreme severe weather this year, which will

It may lead to a serious reduction in food production! For example, in Chu City, your hometown, I estimate that the production reduction this year will be more than 40%!" Abby Cohen paused after saying this, "But this is not the real cause of the food crisis!"

"What's the reason?" Lin Feng asked cooperatively.

"Biofuels!" Abby Cohen said in a serious tone. "Nowadays, with the depletion of oil resources, biofuels have become more and more popular in countries around the world, which has led to a shortage of food. In addition, once food production is reduced, then food

A crisis will occur. Of course, this is only the most important factor. Another important factor is human promotion!"

Man-made push? Lin Feng was surprised.

"Yes, it's man-made. According to some information I've received, some big forces are deliberately creating a food shortage. I don't know who this force is, and I don't know what methods they use.

, I only know that there are big forces behind it. And this is an opportunity and a crisis for you!" Abby Cohen's tone became serious.

Crisis and opportunity? Lin Feng naturally understands this. The opportunity is that he may make a lot of money this time, but the crisis is that he makes too much money and attracts covetous attention from all parties.

"No, Lin, I'm not talking about this. As for you taking advantage of the opportunity to make too much money, it can only mean that you are far-sighted, or that you are lucky, and it doesn't matter if the outside world is jealous. The crisis I am talking about is that you may become this time

The scapegoat for the food crisis!" Abby Cohen said anxiously.

Scapegoat? Lin Feng's brows moved, and he understood vaguely in his heart.

"Yes, scapegoat! You hold more than 400 billion US dollars in food reserves, and now they have fluctuated by 20%. In other words, this report by the Wall Street Journal has allowed you to make 80 billion US dollars out of thin air! 80 billion

U.S. dollars, this money is so profitable. The whole world knows that you are the largest grain trader in the world, so why does the Wall Street Journal publish such a post to make you make money?" Abby Cohen asked, "

You don't have a good relationship with them. So why are they doing this?"

Lin Feng nodded. Indeed, although the world is experiencing severe weather and food production is reduced, it has not yet reached the moment when a complete food crisis breaks out. The Wall Street Journal was the first to point it out. Isn't this a benefit to myself in vain? There is nothing wrong with this.

Is it about pie? Is Wall Street so good?

Apparently not!

"Lin, once this global food crisis breaks out, the outside world will definitely blame the spread of biofuels in various countries. As the world's largest grain trader, you control so much grain, you will definitely be regarded as a scapegoat by them. At that time,

I'm afraid you have to spend money to eliminate the disaster!" Abby Cohen said, "So, I suggest that you donate some food to some countries in Africa that are extremely food-deficient! No, you have only made 80 billion, so donate

800 million US dollars of food! Stop the outside world in advance!"

Lin Feng listened and nodded. Lin Feng remembered that during the food crisis, even the current US President Bush came out to explain the crime of non-biofuels in the food crisis. At that time, several countries around the world were explaining this matter and justifying the name of biofuels.

And isn’t he the most suitable scapegoat?

"I understand! But if a food crisis really breaks out, I will make a lot of money. Do you have any suggestions on this matter?" Lin Fengxiao asked.

"Well, I don't have any suggestions for this. After all, this is an opportunity. I just have a reminder that every time you make money, you should do some charity and donate some food to countries in need of food to offset the external pressure on you.

Criticism! Although you will earn less this way, I am afraid you will earn a lot this time. Therefore, the donated food is just drizzle for you! Of course, when donating food, I hope you can do it without paying directly.

Give it to the government, but to the refugees. Giving it to the government will help you to have good dealings with the governments of various countries, but it is the most disadvantageous to the refugees. The governments of these African countries will not care about the life and death of the people. So, I hope

, you can give it directly to the people!" Abby Cohen said compassionately.

The international community's aid to Africa has been continuous for many years. Every year, a large amount of food, medicine and basic living supplies are sent to the extremely poor countries in Africa. Usually, only the food and goods are directly delivered to the victims.

Only in this way can we truly help them, while other food and items are basically gone as long as they go through the government of this country. In the end, this batch of donated materials will become a way for these countries to get rich. Of course, sometimes

, even the food and materials that have been distributed to the victims are sometimes snatched away by some local government officials or anti-government forces.

Therefore, the victims of disasters in Africa often give the International Red Cross a headache. Do you want to save them or not? Save them. These supplies may become a means for some warlords to get rich. If you don’t save them, you will have an uneasy conscience.

Abby Cohen has been paying attention to the problem of African refugees, and has always been troubled by this problem. She hopes to help these refugees, but she has no way. But now, she found that Lin Feng is a good solution to this problem.

Because Lin Feng has a "wolf fang" in Africa. The "wolf tooth" can protect the food in the hands of these victims from being taken away again.

Of course, there is a premise for this, that is, whether Lin Feng is willing to do it or not. If Lin Feng does this, he will offend the local warlords and the government. This is not beneficial to Lin Feng. After all, helping these victims will not be beneficial to Lin Feng.

There is no benefit at all. On the contrary, offending these governments and warlords will be a headache for Lin Feng's industry in Africa. These warlords and governments do not dare to offend you in the open, but secretly try to trick you.

, then there is no place for you to cry!

Therefore, Abby Cohen is not sure what Lin Feng will choose.

"Yes, I understand. I will let 'Langya' be responsible for the food supply of the victims and ensure that the food is absolutely distributed to every victim!" Lin Feng nodded in agreement without thinking at all.

It's a joke. Nowadays, 'Langya' has greatly expanded its strength relying on the founding of Somalia. It has recruited many black mercenaries from Somalia, and its army has expanded to 30,000. The combat effectiveness of these people may not be able to compete with the regular armies of developed countries.
