Invincible Copy System
Chapter Summary
The number of people in this group is too large, and even the slightest change would be a big deal for everyone. That's why Liu Ning's proposal to change it caused such a big stir in society, and there were also voices of opinion on the internet. So, under these circumstances, no matter what these people are thinking or what kind of changes they need, we will do whatever we want.
The patrol team was already very well-planned, and the society had established a fixed system. If anyone wanted to change it, probably no one would agree. The number of people in this group is too large, and even the slightest change would be a big deal for everyone. That's why Liu Ning's proposal to change it caused such a big stir in society, and there were also voices of opinion on the internet.
But most of the talk was just from the patrol members themselves. Others didn't take their words seriously. In their eyes, no matter what the patrol members thought, they were just average people with little influence in society, no matter how loudly they made a fuss.
In the end, nothing will change. So, under these circumstances, no matter what these people are thinking or what kind of changes they need, we will do whatever we want. From the naval base to the ordinary administrators, they will not care about these people's affairs, because these people live at the bottom of society. If they want to change their current lives, their power is useless. Some people say that we can change everything through the power of the internet, which is the most important thing.
So many years have passed now. There was a massive online petition with millions of signatures, but what was the final result? Even though it mobilized so many people, the petition ultimately failed to achieve its intended purpose. These people online might offer their support, but if asked to take concrete action, such as standing up and participating in a protest, they would remain silent. Everyone's basic needs are still a problem; being able to eat their fill is already a great achievement.
If we were to ask everyone to help you in this regard, it seems impossible right now. So, in this matter, all we can do is offer our support from afar, or perhaps click a few more times online. That's the limit of what we can do to help. If we have any other ideas, it seems unrealistic. So, in this situation, no matter what these people are thinking...
They all have to accept this fact. If they don't want to accept it, things might get complicated. In the current situation, many people find these things incomprehensible, but even if they can't understand, this is the only way we can do it. The naval base won't contribute a single extra penny. They've practically spent all their money from the year after next, especially in some underdeveloped cities. Their annual budgets are so low that many people misread the decimal points and think they haven't spent that much. But this is actually quite normal.
Nowadays, the economies of every city are not doing too well. They have all passed the period of high-speed development dividends. Now most cities are living off their past achievements. When living off past achievements, they must of course be more frugal. What they need to do is increase revenue and reduce expenditure. Now there are no sources of income for them. Instead, they have more channels to spend money. How can this be acceptable? So after understanding these things, Liu Ning was too lazy to deal with these people. It's just 80 billion yuan a year, isn't it?
At worst, he could just pay the money himself. It wasn't a big deal anyway. It was just doing something worthwhile for the patrol team members. They risked their lives every day to go out, and coming back was the happiest thing in their lives. He could just take the money out. The most important thing was whether it could get to these people. That was the most crucial thing. Moreover, Liu Ning thought of another point.
If they were given money, these people would probably embezzle it elsewhere. No one from a slightly better-off family would choose to be a patrolman; those who do choose to be patrolmen are definitely from families that are not well-off.
Therefore, under these circumstances, this money must not fall into their hands. If it does, no one will buy these so-called grenades. Take the apprentice soldiers for example; they earn tens of thousands of yuan every month, but do they use all that money on their equipment? If so, why is their equipment so poor?
Therefore, if we want to truly change everything for them, we must directly provide them with equipment. Liu Ning had his people contact arms manufacturing companies. They had stopped producing such old-style grenades a long time ago, but there was no technical difficulty in making them. As long as the higher-ups were willing to invest, it would only require a maximum of 500 million yuan, and they could build several production lines to meet Liu Ning's needs.
Furthermore, the profit margin for this kind of product isn't very high; success depends on volume. After hearing about Liu Ning's purchase volume, these people were very satisfied. They were well aware of the true value of the profit margin, and if they could secure those profits, they would be very happy to do this. Therefore, once Liu Ning's people arrived, they immediately arranged to resume production, as this would allow them to earn money in a short period of time.
That's the most important thing. As for whether it can help these patrol members, that's the public relations staff's business. They don't care about the patrol members' lives at all. But when the public relations staff release the work, they will say that they have made huge sacrifices for this plan and that they have demolished a lot of factories. Of course, that's not the case.
According to them, they abandoned their most profitable production line to expand the production line for old-fashioned hand grenades. Is that really the case? They produce laser-blast bombs, but not many people buy them, even though they are quite powerful.
But each one costs as much as three thousand yuan, and they're gone as soon as they're thrown out. How many people can afford them? So it's better to produce those ancient hand grenades. But nobody buys those now. Liu Ning's arrival saved them. At least it allows these four thousand workers to keep working. Otherwise, they would have been laid off.
