Chapter 1607: "World City"

Chapter 1607 "Universal City"
Meng Chao said: "Now the foundations of the nine super enterprises, to put it bluntly, are still tools for making money. In the eyes of ordinary citizens, what is the difference between them and the enterprises themselves?"
Shen Yuanbao said: "Then what is the foundation you said about?"
"The foundation I envision mainly performs five functions."
Meng Chao pointed his fingers and said, "First, he is responsible for providing various support to primary and secondary schools and pre-school education institutions in Longcheng, including but not limited to providing training equipment, updating the campus environment, directly exporting teachers or improving teachers' salary, and helping the poor. Students provide bursaries, cover the cost of nutritious lunches, and so on and so forth.

Shen Yuanbao frowned and said, "Now there are many educational institutions under the names of the nine major companies."
"Now the educational institutions under your name are either aristocratic schools for the rich, or various training classes for profit."
Meng Chao replied, "In my opinion, aristocratic schools and training classes, although they are not like monsters, but if you want to truly defend Longcheng, you have to rely on thousands of students from ordinary schools located in slums and old communities. , the students who came out.
"Now many people of insight in Longcheng are calling for improving the quality of education in ordinary schools, so that every child has the opportunity to awaken extraordinary power, but they suffer from insufficient funds and resources.
"If the nine super-enterprises can set up an education foundation and play a role in this regard, it will surely be welcomed and supported by most ordinary citizens, and to a certain extent, it will be able to wash away the negative effects of the 'underground black market'."
Shen Yuanbao was noncommittal: "Go ahead, what about the second?"
"Second, this foundation can be used to discover new people."
Meng Chao said, "Many underprivileged children have cultivated to seventeen or eighteen years old, and they have already made their first appearances, but they suffer from the lack of famous teachers' guidance and sufficient cultivation resources. He practiced blindly, he practiced himself to the point of becoming mad, he was seriously injured, he lay in bed for several months, and his future was almost ruined.
"I think if there is a foundation that can specifically discover and help such newcomers, help them break the darkness before dawn and successfully embark on the path of transcendence, not only will Longcheng's overall combat capability become stronger, but you can also Harvesting the gratitude of these newcomers is a matter of course, and having the opportunity to absorb them and invest in them, isn't this a win-win situation?"
This suggestion is quite in line with Shen Yuanbao's appetite.
In fact, he recruited so many adopted sons back then, which is the same as Meng Chao's "discovering, supporting and absorbing new blood".
Although there are two brothers Shen Chengyi and Shen Chengxiu in the adopted son, they are rebellious.
But Shen Yuanbao also had to admit that if the adopted sons hadn't dared to fight and help the Huanyu Group through the most difficult time, the Shen family would have been finished long ago because of his sons who were still young at the time.
"It's not a big problem."
Shen Yuanbao said, "What else?"
"Also, I think this foundation can undertake some infrastructure construction, such as repairing bridges and paving roads, building schools and hospitals, and even building a brand new city from scratch."
Meng Chao said, "Don't get me wrong, I know that a lot of infrastructure construction can be made with oil and water, but I am referring to those relatively remote and impoverished places. If you invest in it, it is very likely that it will return in 30 to 50 years, or even a hundred or so years. Not the kind of Ben."
"You can't get back to your original book for over a hundred years?"
Shen Yuanbao laughed dumbly, "Then what am I going to do?"
"Picture name!"
Meng Chao said of course, "If the foundation under the name of Senior Shen is really willing to build bridges and pave roads, build hospitals, and open schools in a remote rural area in the depths of the other world, it will bring the friendship of the people of the earth to the poor local aborigines. , to help them get rid of poverty and become rich, to be proactive, and to join the big family of earth civilization, this is a beautiful thing!"
"…"
Shen Yuanbao said, "I look like a good man and a believer who eats fast and recites Buddhism. Can I be persuaded by you in a few words, and give all my hard work and hard work all my life to the idiot who built bridges and paved roads in vain?"
"So, what if you add the naming rights of these infrastructures?"
Meng Chao said, "Think about it, the hospitals, schools, bridges, and even the city itself, named after Senior Shen or the Huanyu Group, rose up from the depths of the other world, countless future sages, magicians, great Swordsmen all graduated from 'Yuanbao Primary School, Yuanbao Middle School, and Yuanbao University', and they even lived in a city called 'Universal City', which combined the dual characteristics of earth civilization and alien civilization. Bring the rune machinery and psionic technology to the extreme, just like a super city coming in the future.
"Even if you die one day, your bones and scum will rot into mud, the mud will be burnt into ashes, and the ashes will be lifted cleanly. Your great achievements in fierce battles against monsters in the past will be annihilated in the dust of history, and will be annihilated by new The heroes and new legends have replaced it, but 'Yuanbao University' and 'Universal City' still exist, and together with Longcheng, they have turned into shining stars, symbolizing the fire of Earth's civilization, living in a brand new world. .
"Isn't this much better than simply leaving a large sum of money, a super company suffering from big business disease and controversial, to those children and grandchildren who have more ambition than ability and don't know how to unite?"
"Universal City..."
Shen Yuanbao fell into deep thought.
This proposal obviously got into his heart.
"Why set up a foundation?"
Shen Yuanbao narrowed his eyes, "With the strength of the Universal Group, we could have built a city that belongs to us completely outside the Monster Mountains!"
"Indeed, I admit, you are doing it."
Meng Chao said, "But such a city completely controlled by the Huanyu Group is destined to be impossible to get the support of all the citizens of Longcheng, and it is also destined to be impossible to get the support of thousands of extraordinary people from poor families except the Shen family. It is very likely that there will be frictions or even violent conflicts with the other eight super-enterprises, the cities that are built separately, the independent kingdoms that are built as prisons.
"Furthermore, such a city born in pursuit of profit is destined to be unable to take care of the interests of the natives of the other world, and will only use the means of exhausting the fish to frantically squeeze the natives of the other world, arouse the hatred of the natives of the other world, and welcome their counterattack. .
"In the end, when the otherworldly natives attacked in groups, in this city where 'interests are above all else', there were a bunch of mercenary guys, how could they find thousands of people willing to defend it to the death? What about people?"
