"This is Lina. From today on, she is my personal secretary."
"Hello everyone."
Lina looked at the people sitting here in front of her. Many of them were people that Lina had only seen on TV. All of them were senior executives of the Nolanka Group. They covered the sky with one hand in a certain field. Calling the shots in the entire city of Kaya.
It feels like a primary school student attending a dinner party and finding that the person sitting next to him is the Secretary of Education.
"Hello."
Private secretary, this is Wei An's first personal secretary. In the past, all Wei An's affairs were done by the old housekeeper.
The executives present were all fine people, and they quickly introduced themselves to Lina warmly.
In the process, Lina also met the old housekeeper Danny.
"Okay, what was the outcome of the discussion?"
After everyone finished discussing, He Ao sat in the main seat and glanced at the faces of the senior executives sitting there.
Although there was still room at the table, Lina thought for a while and did not sit down. Instead, she stood with the old housekeeper.
When He Ao convened these executives, he gave them a basic idea and asked them to discuss the feasibility. Now he wants to accept the ideas of these executives.
The senior executives here are all promoted by Danny over the years, and they are basically considered his own people. They were called here, while other executives who were not from the Wei An faction were not called, which in itself means certain signals.
So these people appear to be particularly positive.
Of course, when concluding their speeches, they still knew how to be polite. This was their first time getting along with He Ao, so they couldn't figure out He Ao's habits for fear of saying the wrong thing.
Everyone's eyes instantly fell on Ah Lian, who was wearing glasses.
Allen was confused.
He is a board member, an executive, and Wei An's childhood friend. It couldn't be better for him to be the first to speak.
Although this was agreed at the beginning, he was still a little nervous, mainly because what he was about to say was basically to refute He Ao.
He picked up the paper on which he had just written down his opinions and said one by one,
"As for the ideas you just mentioned, we discussed it and felt that it might not be feasible.
Article 1: In terms of employee benefits you mentioned, we should provide housing discounts and school discounts for all employees, establish internal pension insurance and medical insurance, and provide medical services for employees.
These additional expenditures will lead to a significant decline in the group's interests or even losses. If there is no profit, external investment institutions may not be willing to invest in us, and the group's capital chain may be broken."
After finishing speaking, Allen raised his head and glanced at He Ao's face.
He Ao nodded slightly, "Continue."
"Article 2: In terms of industrial reform, you said that the shares of Nolanka Bank should be split and listed for financing. We support it, but we may not understand what happens next.
First of all, expand the grain industry sector and increase agricultural investment. Agriculture is an industry that is not very profitable, and once we show signs of expanding grain production, the grain industry alliance headed by Moshanto will definitely dump grain at low prices in an attempt to defeat Our agriculture, this will cause us a lot of losses.
Secondly, expanding investment in education and providing loans to street children to help them go to school is also a ‘charity industry’ that is 100% loss-making.
Finally, let the heavy industry sector turn to the production of military industry. Military industry is an industry with a very low return on investment, and our products cannot compete with established military industry giants such as Ivis Space Systems."
"You said this morning that our mechas can change the world."
He Ao looked at him with a smile.
"But that's just an advantage,"
Allen stuttered in reply. He felt that He Ao seemed to be a completely different person, serious and majestic.
"It's okay, just keep talking."
He Ao smiled and motioned for Allen to continue.
"There is one last piece: Encouraging the children or relatives of employees to join the group's mercenary corps is impossible to achieve at all. Our mercenary escorts earn money to buy their lives. Only those who are brave enough to fight, or who can't survive at all, can
Just become a mercenary.
Those employees who are living a good life, why would they be willing to send their relatives to become mercenaries?"
"Moreover," Allen paused, "If we raise the benefits so high, other companies and small consortiums in Kaya City will lose employees, which will cause us to become the target of public criticism in the entire Kaya City."
"A group of small loaches cannot overcome big storms."
He Ao leaned on his chair and looked at the executives in front of him, "So do you think we should still engage in finance and real estate to obtain excess profits?"
Everyone lowered their heads and did not dare to speak.
Allen opened his mouth, but he didn't know how to solve this problem.
In fact, in the final analysis, it is just a matter of stance. Heao's starting point is to enable every Nolanka Group employee to live a better life.
The issue these executives consider is pure profits. The more profits they earn, the more commissions or dividends they can get, and their wealth will increase. They can rely on this increased wealth to live a comfortable life.
Better days.
As for the ordinary people below, who are unemployed, don’t have enough food to eat, and starve to death, it has nothing to do with the rich people like them who have made money.
This is the ingrained way of thinking in this world.
But will the poor be willing to starve to death?
impossible.
The root cause of the high crime rate in Kaya City is that more and more people have lost their jobs and become homeless. These people cannot afford to eat, so they no longer care about any rules.
The root of all this comes from the consortium headed by the Nolanka Group, which has no bottom line to squeeze the bottom layer and obtain high profits from it.
The so-called profit is nothing more than the selling price minus the cost. When the selling price remains unchanged, the lower the cost, the higher the profit.
The labor cost is an important part of the cost.
He Ao's series of welfare policies, including various preferential treatment and education subsidies, are actually just returning the profits squeezed from the workers to them. It is equivalent to giving them a wage increase in disguise, but this part of the increase must be spent.
to his designated location.
As for investment in agriculture, firstly, the investment process can create a large number of jobs and allow homeless people in the city to find jobs. Secondly, it is to ensure sufficient food production and avoid being controlled by others if problems arise in the future.
As long as the employees benefit from He Ao's policy, in order to prevent the collapse of the Nolanka Group and return to the bad life before, they will naturally take up arms to protect the Nolanka Group, so the so-called non-mercenaries
There is no reason anymore.
The purpose of developing the military industry is to plan to protect Nolanka Group in the future. If we implement such a policy, Nolanka Group will not only face internal pressure in the future.
Will such reforms lead to Nolanka Group falling into serious losses?
In fact, no, as long as the scale is controlled well, after the group makes profits, it actually reduces some of the necessary consumption at the bottom, giving ordinary people more spare money, which can be used to purchase other products of the group - in Kaya
In the market, as long as he buys things, he cannot do without Nolanka Group.
This is equivalent to the opening of a new market. The goods that were originally overstocked in the warehouse can be sold, and the factory can be restarted. More new workers will be needed, new job opportunities will be added, homeless people will decrease, the crime rate will decrease, and people will fall into
The troubled economy can be revitalized.
Just change the mindset from profit first to everyone having food first.
The problems raised by these executives are not problems.
Of course, this reform will inevitably lead to a reduction in profits, which will affect the interests of a large part of the group. Of course, in theory, the biggest sufferer is He Ao, the controlling shareholder, who is the direct beneficiary of the group's profits.
He Ao looked at the executives in front of him and said, "In the future, your bonuses will no longer be linked to profits, but will be assessed comprehensively. Who else has objections to what I just did?"
Everyone was silent. If it had nothing to do with their interests, they wouldn't have to consider these issues. Anyway, it was He Ao's money that they were losing, and it had nothing to do with them.
"Okay, it seems that there are no objections." He Ao looked at everyone, "If I want to implement my plan, are there any doubts?"
"The implementation of these projects requires a large amount of funds. If we don't have enough funds, how should we raise these funds when profits are reduced and financial market financing is difficult?"
An executive raised his hand.
"Bonds, first of all, when the whole plan is implemented, we issue a kind of 'points', or virtual currency, you can name it whatever you want, let's call it Nolan Card Coin.
Employee wages are paid in two types: federal currency and Nolanka currency. Nolanka currency can be used to purchase any products produced by the group, and can also be used to pay tuition at the group's schools, pay insurance at the group's insurance company, and invest in new projects.
Only or most of the homeless people are given Nolan Card coins, allowing them to use the Nolan Card coins to buy supplies.
If we are short of money, we can issue a special Nolanka coin bond to raise funds. How and how this virtual currency is issued will be discussed by professional economists from the Group Research Institute. But this method can bring in money.
, there is no doubt about it.”
In fact, this method can only be used by the Noranka Group in Kaya City, because the Noranka Group almost monopolizes all walks of life in this city, and the virtual currency issued can purchase anything you want to buy, forming an internal cycle.
"Okay, any more questions?"
He Ao opened his mouth and said.
With the first person raising his hand, naturally the second one raised his hand. One executive stood up and asked, "Medical insurance is expensive. If we cover everyone's medical insurance, in the long run, how much will it give us?"
The financial situation has caused a serious burden."
"Invest in medical education," He Ao said flatly,
"Insurance is expensive because medical care is expensive. The core reason why medical care is expensive is that doctors are expensive. Training a doctor requires a lot of time, energy and even money. Many medical schools in the federation have strict admission requirements. Some medical schools also require alumni, relatives or
You can only enter if you have letters of recommendation from multiple alumni.
Change this approach, establish a medical school that everyone can attend, establish a hierarchical health care system, encourage poor children to study medicine, train a large number of junior family doctors and community doctors, and relieve the pressure on the medical system, we can fundamentally solve the problem of expensive medical care.
Question, next one.”
Immediately afterwards, many more executives raised their hands. He Ao could basically give an idea to the questions they asked. These ideas came not only from his cognition, but also from Wei An's memory.
These ideas have good and bad qualities and are not perfect, but they probably provide a new way of thinking and inspire these executives.
After asking questions back and forth for a long time, He Ao lightly knocked on the table.
"These are long-term planning ideas. There are definitely some areas that do not meet the actual conditions and need to be revised in practice. I am not asking you to make short-term plans, but there is one thing that must be resolved tonight.
.
Regarding employee benefits, housing discounts, education discounts, etc., I want to have a most basic implementable plan tonight, which will be announced tomorrow morning.
In addition, regarding the draft construction plan for the agricultural building, please give it to me tomorrow night, let’s get started, everyone.”
He Ao didn't have much time. He had to give these things a start. Once everything had started, it would be easier to push forward later.
"What about me?" Lina, standing behind He Ao, asked in a low voice, "What is my mission?"
"Your task is to publicize," He Ao stood up slowly, "make sure everyone knows who led the formulation of this plan, what kind of benefits it can have, and how to apply for these benefits."
He patted Lina on the shoulder, "Just like the program you designed today, it must be seen by enough people."
After saying that, he walked towards the study room. The shell of his micro fusion reactor was almost ready.
