Chapter 15, Long-Term Planning and Short-Term Goals
After a delicious meal filled with a relaxed and pleasant atmosphere, Father Locke began to solicit everyone's opinions on tomorrow's work. Vance was the first to mention the drinking water issue, and the others had no ideas for the time being. At this time, Iger raised his hand, he was coming back today.
I thought about many things during the few kilometers and even had a complete case.
"I don't know who has paper and pen. There are a lot of things I'm going to say next. I hope someone can record it." Egger was sitting on both sides of the dining table, but he said the words of the C position.
Egger explained to everyone: "The reason I didn't write it out myself is because I wanted to ask for everyone's opinions while speaking. If it can be unanimously adopted, then I want to form it into a system."
If Iger was still the kid who was just rescued from the elementary school yesterday, he might be asking for trouble by saying this, but now, as a sharpshooter, he has a decisive voice in the team.
The marksman itself represents outstanding judgment and strong psychological quality. Without these two things, no matter how accurate the gun is, he can only be a target shooter.
Speaking of paper and pens, as expected by Iger, Elvira quickly returned to the room to rummage, and soon she returned to the table with a gel pen and a thick notebook.
"Then let me start talking." Iger said: "First of all, our team can be called the "Gospel Team". Is this name okay with everyone?"
Everyone nodded and passed.
Elvira recorded it in her notebook: Gospel Team.
Egger continued: "Our short-term goal is to survive, that is, to survive; the mid-term goal is to resume production and establish a safe and stable base; the ultimate goal is to rebuild our home."
Everyone nodded unanimously to pass.
"To achieve this goal, our team members must be worthy of the trust of others and must trust others, and no one must violate that trust." Egger raised the second point.
There is no doubt that this article was passed quickly.
"The next thing I want to talk about is the form of power." Iger said: "I am opposed to the one-person-one-vote system. There is no power without reason in this world, and there is no responsibility that only pays but has no reward.
I suggest adopting a joint-stock company system. The team's decision-making is composed of the chairman and the board of directors. The chairman is elected by the board members, and the board members are elected by the shareholders. As for how to become a shareholder, everyone can discuss the conditions, requirements, and clarify the responsibilities of shareholders.
and power.”
When Ige made it clear that he opposed the one-person-one-vote system, Vance almost expressed his opposition. Isn't this digging into the ancestral graves of Youminzuo?
But Iger, who knows enough about certain histories, knows that one person, one vote is not the so-called popular vote, but a manipulated voting game. Once the team is trapped in this game and cannot extricate itself, it will inevitably lose control and lead to disaster.
When Iger mentioned the adoption of a joint-stock company system, Vance suddenly felt that this idea was quite good. After all, everyone was familiar with this mechanism, which was mature and reliable.
However, the current shares are not money or other resources, but should be contributions to the team.
After a little discussion, everyone still unanimously approved Iger's proposal.
Iger breathed a sigh of relief. This was the most difficult step in his plan to implement. The core of the so-called joint-stock company system is the CPC system that Iger is most familiar with. Playing CPC with the American people in America is a lot of fun just thinking about it.
But there is nothing that can be done about it. If the Gospel Church wants to establish a stable stronghold, it must add more manpower. Increasing manpower will inevitably lead to power distribution. Iger definitely does not want the Gospel Church to fall into a dispute between the donkey and the elephant.
"Okay." Iger picked up a wooden board that had been prepared and used it as a "gavel" and slapped the table and said: "All of us here are members of the first board of directors of the gospel team. Now we are holding the first board meeting.
For the election, I recommend Father Locke. If you agree, please raise your hands."
As soon as he finished speaking, Iger raised his left hand first, Vance was the second, Lily was the third, followed by Sister Maria who was a little slow to react, and finally Elvira, who was writing vigorously, also raised her left hand while writing.
Left hand.
Of the 6 people present, 5 agreed, and Father Locke became the first chairman of the gospel team.
Iger breathed a sigh of relief for the second time. The team was basically set up. He was not finished yet and still had proposals to discuss.
Egg looked at everyone who was a little relaxed and comfortable, and spoke of a very serious topic: "The gospel team's short-term goal plan is: We must immediately establish a search and rescue team to carry out search and rescue work in the community."
Sure enough, as soon as these words came out, everyone's expressions changed.
In this world-destroying catastrophe, everyone is at risk, because no one is an invulnerable superhero, and no one has one more life than others.
Being able to save one's own life is already a luxury that requires all one's strength to fight for. Even the kind Father Locke can't bear to die without saving, but he would never think of taking the initiative to search and rescue.
Although everyone's expressions changed, no one objected immediately. Iger took the opportunity to repeat to everyone what he said to Vance today.
"Whether it is our ultimate goal of rebuilding our home, or our mid-term goal of resuming production and establishing a stronghold, or even our short-term goal of surviving as a team, we cannot do without survivors." Egger used his best efforts to achieve everyone.
The greatest emotion.
Egger said: "Today is the fourth day. If there are still survivors hiding in the community, they will not be able to hold on for a few more days. Moreover, the survivors in the community want to escape from the community, and they have no goal or direction.
When I was vigiling last night, some survivors tried to escape from the community. Unfortunately, the survivors encountered the infected, and everyone heard the gunfire. God bless them, but I think no matter how many survivors there are, they are all dead.
The survivors rely on their own strength. Those who are capable have left long ago. Those who are still trapped at home can only be those who are unable to save themselves.
I feel that we cannot just wait for them to die, we must do this extremely difficult and dangerous thing, and we must do it quickly, starting tomorrow morning at the latest.”
"I object!" As soon as Iger finished speaking, Vance directly objected.
"The three of us encountered several infected people on the way back just now, but we almost died." Vance pounded the table and said, "We have no obligation to save those people, let alone save money for people who have nothing to do with us.
Die."
"Then let me put it another way." Iger had already guessed Vance's attitude. He folded his hands and put them on the table and said to everyone: "We need to search the community for the necessities the team needs, and at the same time expand our safety zone.
Establish a buffer zone, and during this process, if we encounter survivors, we should do our best to rescue them."
"When I say this, do you think everyone should be more accepting of it?"
After Iger said this, even Vance had no reason to refute. After a period of silence, Vance made his request:
