Chapter 788 [Abnormal Capitalists III]


Chapter 788 [Abnormal Capitals III]

Xia Xiu finished listening quietly, his eyes as calm and deep as a deep pool.

He nodded gently and said:

"Of course Heaven is willing to establish a more in-depth cooperation with your company.

We hope that the flow of resources from both parties can be maintained in a stable and balanced state, not only to ensure that the income and expenditure of the policy are reasonable, but also to achieve maximum benefits with minimal losses, thus bringing substantial benefits to our mission of maintaining normalcy. ”

These words were concise and precise, without any redundant words, but they perfectly expressed the position of the Honkai Authority and the three houses - their goal is to achieve deeper cooperation with [Kimberg-Leitz]. Promote the extraordinary integration of resources needed by the Authority while filling current structural gaps in resource sharing and allocation.

The Administration is a secular institution of the Kingdom of Heaven, and Xia Xiu is no stranger to it. From the time he came into contact with these systems, he knew that the fundamental reason for the failure of the initial secularization of the Kingdom of Heaven could be attributed to two key points: the failure to achieve a highly atomized individual existence, and the failure to complete the collective unification of common interests.

These two concepts should have been the core of the [utopianist] program, but they have gone sideways and collapsed in practice.

According to the theoretical assumptions of the program, under the ideal framework of [utopianism], individuals should be highly atomized independent subjects that can not only exist independently, but also serve the entire human race through free labor and collaboration.

This "atomized individual" does not stand alone, but as a complete, self-aware unit, working together with other individuals to build a collaborative society.

At the same time, the collectivization goal of the genealogy aims to realize the sharing and on-demand distribution of resources, so that all extraordinary means of production and living resources belong to the collective, and provide everyone with equal and sufficient life security.

However, the first secularization practice, which was based on these two theories, failed due to multiple reasons.

At that time, the Kingdom of Heaven tried to promote the public ownership of genealogical resources through the religious and papal system, and collect extraordinary means of production and living resources into collective ownership; and then promoted a collective life model on a large scale through churches and dioceses, thereby eliminating the private nature of resources; Finally, we try to promote distribution according to needs within the church, hoping to completely eliminate inequality and waste of resources in society.

The dual system of the Pope and think tanks represents:

——Human nature and intelligence.

However, this is all distorted in practice.

The coercive intervention of the religious system not only fails to achieve individual liberalization, but also weakens individual independence due to excessive centralization.

The governance structure of the think tank and papal model has resulted in the absolute power of resource allocation being concentrated at the top, while the production freedom of the middle and lower classes is deprived of by strict rules and doctrines.

Local parishes fell into disarray due to chaotic resource allocation, and there was a huge gap in actual living standards between different parishes.

What's worse is that some dioceses have resorted to exaggerated means to gain the attention and resources of heaven and think tanks, further exacerbating the imbalance in the system.

This secularization movement of the kingdom of heaven pursues the glorious vision of [utopianism] in theory, but in practice it turns into a cruel opposition between "ideal and reality".

The evaluation of the first secularization can basically be defined as:

[Human nature is too fanatical, but the intelligence is slightly insufficient; intelligence is standard enough, but human nature lacks motivation——]

Xia Xiu knew this very well.

To advance the second secularization, we must abandon the lessons of the first secularization and seek more flexible and effective strategies.

In this process, [Kimberg-Leitz] undoubtedly became a key chess piece.

This chaotic system, known as "substantial legal and financial concepts", is a sophisticated machine that serves rules. Its existence itself has the natural advantage of providing guarantees for order and interests.

The cooperation between the two parties is not just focused on the immediate exchange of resources, but a far-reaching layout for the future order - a long-term contract that can provide testing ground for the new secularization attempt of the Kingdom of Heaven.

The host of the second secularization is Hugh Abraham, the fourth sword-bearer in the Kingdom of Heaven.

He understood that there are individual differences between human society and supernatural beings that cannot be ignored, and an important reason for the failure of the first secularization movement was the attempt to achieve absolute average through power

Equal resource distribution sounds good, but it virtually stifles individual creativity and competitiveness, so much so that the president of the Edici Federation once publicly sneered:

"Heaven has created a world full of second-hand goods."

Xia Xiu never placed his hope in an absolute [utopian equality], but began to focus on institutionalized solutions.

For him: the contradiction between individual freedom and collective unity can be reconciled through strict rules and contracts, while ensuring that the principle of "equality of opportunity is higher than equality of results" is implemented.

This will be a reform attempt that is closer to reality and more in line with the development of human nature.

Don't expect to force the so-called "purification of human nature" through hard-line education.

It is difficult for human beings to reach a pure spiritual height, and it is even more difficult for humans to get rid of the drive of material and desires.

In this case, it is better to use the form of contract to guide the instinct in human nature to a controllable track.

As represented by [Kimberg-Leitz], the complexity of intellectual existence can be released in order through contractual constraints and rules.

The core of this movement lies in "planning intellectual development."

The progress of human civilization requires a clear path to advancement—a ladder of progress that is visible and tangible.

Standing at the starting point of this grand plan, Xia Xiu didn't feel at all confused.

His eyes fell on Kinberg, whose face, which always maintained a perfect smile, was impeccable and without enthusiasm, like a logic machine running without errors.

Just after Xia Xiu's gaze paused for a moment, Jinberg's unique inhuman quality seemed to loosen.

He tilted his head slightly, and there was a hint of "curiosity" in that mask-like smile.

He became slightly interested in the intention of cooperation proposed by the fourth sword holder in the Kingdom of Heaven in front of him.

"What kind of protection do you want us to provide you?"

Jinberg spoke, his voice steady and as usual, with an irresistible sense of authority, but it did not cover up the subtle desire for exploration he showed at this moment.

"What do you think?" Xia Xiu asked.

"Global anomaly disaster insurance?" Kinberg's voice was low and calm, like running water passing through a deep pool.

Xia Xiu shook his head.

"Multidimensional Asset Dispute Resolution Agreement?"

Once again, Xia Xiu shook his head gently.

"Guarantee for unknown phenomena?"

Kimberg continued, his tone still calm, but he seemed to be weighing the possibility.

Xia Xiu remained unmoved and shook his head slowly.

"Sustainable existence agreement? Disaster recovery plan?" He described the possible needs of Heaven for Xia Xiu based on some unknown logic.

But Xia Xiu's reaction was unexpected. He shook his head gently after every tentative question from Jinberg, and his movements were slow and slow.

Jinberg finally paused for a moment, his perfect smile slightly stiff.

He didn't show disappointment or confusion, but more of a secret wait.

After his silence, the fourth sword holder of Heaven also revealed the answer.

"What I need is a public, traceable, and immediately enforceable default protection."

Xia Xiu looked directly at Jinberg, with a hint of coldness and edge in his tone. The corners of his mouth raised slightly, revealing a meaningful smile, and then added:

"——For some people who should be hung on street lamps, the end of the world will not be as cruel as this."

The moment Xia Xiu said those words, the air in the conference room seemed to freeze for a moment.

Some abnormal capitalists' necks felt a slight chill subconsciously, and they involuntarily reached out and touched their necks, as if to confirm whether their heads were still firmly on their shoulders.

They tried to comfort themselves in their hearts: The fourth sword holder in the Kingdom of Heaven was not alluding to them, but was scaring themselves.

Next to him, Hanks, president of the Second Federal Reserve Bank, acted more calmly.

Check out the 16-9 book bar and see the correct version!

He touched his nose, using this inadvertent action to hide his murderous and straightforward feelings about the fourth sword-wielding man in heaven's words.

After a moment, he felt Xia Xiu's eyes turning towards him.

Xia Xiu tilted his head slightly and gave Hanks a faint smile, indicating that he could end the conversation with Jinberg and start the next one.

Jinberg silently sat back in his seat, his movements still standard and calm, as if the conversation just now had nothing to do with him.

He slightly adjusted his sitting posture, folded his hands on the table, and his perfectly sculptured smile remained unchanged. However, the imperceptible pause and the slight focus in his eyes seemed to imply that he had begun to construct the contract that Xia Xiu needed.

Hanks nodded slightly and immediately began to introduce the next attendee.

When he finished speaking, a representative of abnormal capital with a completely different style stood up.

This man was wearing a strange mix of clothes, with bold colors of red and green, like a character who had stepped straight off a theatrical stage.

His body was covered with exaggerated ornaments, and the metal pendants jingled, giving off a strong sense of "funnyness."

He looks like a clown in a theater, but his superficial casualness cannot hide his elusive nature.

When he saw Xia Xiu, he whistled softly. The tone was melodious, as if he was provoking, but also seemed to be deliberately showing some spontaneity.

He stood up unhurriedly, put his hands in his pockets, and walked towards Xia Xiu with a bit of carelessness.

After standing still, the corners of his mouth raised slightly, revealing a somewhat teasing smile, and then he stretched out his hand.

"I have long admired your name, Mr. Abraham."

His voice had a frivolous tone, but it also contained a hint of profound meaning that was difficult to capture.

"My name is Martin Greaze/Greaze - representative of Greaze Ltd."

Xia Xiu tilted his head slightly, with a calm light shining through his golden eyes as he stared at the strangely dressed representative in front of him.

The handshake was delayed slightly, and his eyes lightly swept over the other person. It was not a hostile look, but a more delicate observation, as if he was exploring something deeper through this dramatic appearance.

At the same time, the detailed information about [Fortress Co., Ltd.] retrieved from the Eden Think Tank quickly emerged in his mind.

This is a company that is generally recognized as a "fast food chain" by the outside world. However, both its organizational structure and operational logic clearly deviate from the scope of ordinary enterprises.

Especially [Gaibo Terra Branch], the variety of products is almost absurd.

This chaos is largely not due to market demand, but to extremely unprofessional and even almost random production behavior within the company.

According to intelligence analysis, this chaotic state may not be unique to the Earth Branch, but continues to exist within the entire [Fortress System].

Xia Xiu's eyes slid over the other person's slightly funny attire and landed on his outstretched hand, and the description of the core product of "Fort" emerged in his mind again - "grease juice".

According to intelligence, this liquid called "grease juice" is a mixture purified from a variety of effective abnormal ingredients.

However, there is no clear information about its purpose, fixed formula, or even its exact effects.

The selection of its raw materials depends entirely on the personal opinions and preferences of the producer. Therefore, even the nominal core product "fat juice" is highly uncertain and non-standardized.

Their company philosophy is:

"Deadly delicious food, just for satiety——"

In addition, Xia Xiu also knows a lot about the internal operation mode of [Gai Zhibao Company].

Employees who are considered "valuable" do not truly exit the company's system when they leave or die.

Their genes are copied and transferred into functionally identical replicas to ensure "functional immortality" on an operational level.

This model makes [Fortress] more like a running experiment rather than an enterprise in the traditional sense.

Stare at the funny but elusive representative in front of you. His handshake was moderately firm, neither distant nor unduly enthusiastic.

His voice was calm and somewhat searching, and he said lightly:

"Are all the employees at Gizhibao as...unique as you are?"

When Martin Glaze heard this, he smiled meaningfully. He raised his head slightly, as if thinking about how to respond to this sentence in the most dramatic way.

Immediately, he replied in an exaggerated tone:

"When our glorious footsteps first stomped on the green grass of Terra, and when we were shocked to learn that the local residents knew nothing about the glorious fortress, we set out on a mission.
< br>

We made a documentary telling the story of our Glaze family and giving it to all the education systems around us..."

His speaking speed was deliberately slowed down, and his tone rose and fell, like an actor performing a one-man show on the stage.

His posture seemed absurd, but every word was filled with a strange obsession, as if the "glory" he spoke of was some kind of unquestionable truth.

Xia Xiu stared at him, raising the corners of his mouth slightly. He didn't wait for Martin to continue his exaggerated monologue, and then calmly took over:

"Your behavior has caused a headache for our burial agency in Heaven, so we have confiscated and frozen some of your branches."
