life copy game.

"Save the city?"

He Ao took a sip of the milk tea, and looked at Old Jieke with some doubts.

United Industries is the largest employer in Winter City, almost controlling most of the mining and industry in Winter City, and the entire city is under this huge curtain.

Although United Industries' reputation isn't that bad, it can't be called a savior either.

"Our generation has a unique feeling for United Industries,"

Old Jieke brought the stove over and put it closer to He Ao, holding the teacup in his arms, watching the cheering scene on TV with deep eyes,

"Many young people now feel that United Industries is a depressing, cannibalistic monster, but in our time, when it was first established, it pinned our expectations and the expectations of the entire city."

"expect?"

He Ao held the teacup in his arms, watched Old Jieke quietly, and waited for Old Jieke's next words.

"It's a long story to tell,"

Old Jacko glanced at the electric kettle on the stove, "Where should we start?"

He pressed the button on the stove, turned on the heat preservation button of the kettle, and then paused, seemingly lost in a long memory, "Do you know the reason why it was established in United Industries?"

"Scattered small mining enterprises in Winter City are not fully competitive in the federal market, and need a large enterprise with sufficient bargaining power to exist, so these small enterprises joined forces to form the current joint industry."

He Ao looked at the old man and replied softly.

After leaving from Willy, he also roughly searched the history of United Industries, which is the description of his establishment background on the official website of United Industries.

But there is only such a simple sentence, nothing about what happened in that era, or even the people who participated in that era.

"Is this from the official website of United Industries?"

The old man glanced at He Ao in surprise, and then shifted his sight to the TV, "Few people care about these things now, in fact, I think this sentence sums it up very well. When I made this definition, I was Beside, all of us are happy with that statement."

He paused, his voice was a little wistful,

"In the time I was born, Winter City didn't actually have a clear 'super-large enterprise'. Countless small mining companies gathered around the 'gold mine' of the Sea of ​​Storms to pan for gold. At that time, there were three largest enterprises in the entire city,
"One is the Scohen Mining of the Scohen family, the other is the Storm Sea Mining, and the last one is the Frost Snow Mining.

"Although these three companies claim to be the three largest companies in Winter City, in fact, the combined output of the three companies is less than 20% of the total energy and mineral production in Winter City.

"There are various reasons for this,
"Winter City is one of the oldest cities in the Federation to mine energy and minerals. It has a very developed history of energy mining. At that time, any mining company that you can find may be a 'time-honored brand' that has been passed down for hundreds of years. At the same time, various minerals There are often grievances between companies, it is difficult to cooperate, and so on.

"However, the core reason for maintaining the state of disunity in Winter City is not these, but comes from a powerful external force."

Old Jacko looked at the only man in a suit and leather shoes sitting in the corner of the TV without a smile.

He Ao followed his gaze to look at the man.

"The one sitting in the corner is a representative of the Rockwell Energy Group."

Old Jacko slowly introduced,

"Rockville Energy Group has been the largest partner in the energy mining industry in the City of Winter.

"More than [-]% of the energy ores in Winter City are sold to the Rockville Energy Group.
"Before, because Winter City was located in a relatively remote location and was not within the core sphere of influence of the Rockwell Energy Group, they did not try to forcibly control the mining industry in Winter City, but adopted a 'divide and conquer' method, Let the mining company in Winter City maintain a state of disunity.

"For nearly a century, due to the intervention of the Rockwell Energy Group, the number of mining companies in Winter City has become more and more small.

"Under the guidance of the Rockwell Energy Group, all mining companies have started vicious competition and have to sell ore to the Rockwell Energy Group at a price far below the market price.

"On the other hand, because Winter City lacks basic industries, only the mining industry, a large amount of food, industrial products, and daily necessities all need to be transported through other cities in the Federation.

"The Rockwell Energy Group, together with several other industrial consortiums, controlled this trade route and controlled most of the shopping malls and wholesale markets in Winter City.

"Through controlling trade routes and sales channels, the Rockville Energy Group has greatly increased the selling prices of these items. The prices of industrial products and food in Winter City are much higher than the federal average price.

"At the same time, the Rockville Energy Group also spent money on city councilors and mayors, supported the pro-their city government and city council, and controlled public opinion media to promote the group. For a long time, we didn't know what happened. .”

"But you guys eventually figured out the problem."

He Ao took a sip of milk tea, and then put the teacup by the stove to warm it up.

"Yes,"

Old Jacko looked at the figure on the TV,

"Because we have gradually discovered that no matter how hard we mine ore, how hard we operate and work, we are getting poorer and our debts are getting higher and higher."

"Because I earn less and spend more."

He Ao answered in a soft voice.

Old Jieke raised his head and looked at He Ao in surprise, as if he was amazed by He Ao's sharpness, he smiled, "The summary is very precise."

He picked up the electric kettle, glanced at He Ao's half cup of milk tea left, "Would you like some more?"

"Thank you."

Howard nodded slightly.

"Once this principle is explained clearly, it is very simple and clear,"

Old Jieke poured the milk tea into He Ao's teacup, and said slowly, "But for us who were in the midst of all kinds of complicated public opinion and propaganda at that time, it was difficult to judge."

After filling He Ao's teacup, he poured milk tea into his own,
"In the early days of the federation, when information was underdeveloped, the main difficulty for us to obtain information was how to obtain it.

"But now, every day when we open our eyes, a large amount of information appears in front of us. How to find the correct and effective information in this mountain-like information has become a difficulty."

When the teacup was full, he put down the teapot, picked up the teacup, and continued,

"When I was growing up, the news and newspapers would only tell us that the prices of items in supermarkets are reasonable because they buy so high, and that the wages of mining employees are low because mining companies themselves do not make money.

"The reason why mining companies do not make money is because there are too many mining companies and their competition is too fierce.

"It is difficult for us to know the prices of daily necessities in other cities. Almost no media will pay attention to these. Even if there are scattered news, people will only marvel and then laugh it off.

"The overflowing entertainment industry takes up all our free time, so let's not think about those complex issues.

"We couldn't make ends meet, we started taking on debt, and the debt got higher and higher.

"Although Winter City is not included in the control area of ​​Rockwell Energy Group in name, it has been completely controlled by Rockwell Energy Group in essence.

"All mining companies work for Rockwell Energy, and everyone buys from Rockwell Energy and their allies.

"The city is not making a profit, but Rockville Energy is making a profit on us."

"Of course, there are many people who have discovered the problem behind this, but in fact, most people who have discovered this problem will suffer more than others who have not discovered this problem, because they can't do anything about it.

"Still, of all people, Skohn is a special kind,"

Old Jieke held the teacup in his hand, and his deep eyes seemed to reflect some kind of distant memory,
"He is an excellent manager. As the successor of the Skorn Mining Group, he showed amazing management talent and communication talent before inheriting the industry.

"When I first met him, he was still very young. He showed keen insight, and he could easily detect the deep truth of things through a few words."

Speaking of this, he turned his head and glanced at He Ao, "Just like you."

Then he paused and continued, "Of course, he was much older than you should be now.

"At that time, I was the boss of a small mining company. When I was still confused and felt that the business was getting more and more difficult, he keenly pointed out the key to the problem.

"He has always believed that the reason why Winter City is controlled by others and is getting poorer and poorer while guarding the mine is very simple, that is, the people in this city do not have the right to speak in this city.
"Although Winter City belongs to the people of Winter City in name, it actually belongs to Rockwell Energy Group. The enterprises controlled by Rockwell Energy Group control most of the mining industry and suppress the mining industry of Winter City. Enterprises and industrial enterprises.

"He feels that the core of solving the problem in Winter City lies in two points. One is to unite the mining industry and have independent decision-making power, and the other is to build Winter City's own industrial production line and eliminate its dependence on external supply chains."

"So he rebelled against Rockwell Energy?"

He Ao picked up the milk tea, took a sip, and asked softly, "His method is different from others?"

After recognizing the core of the problem, the process of solving the problem is equally difficult.

Skohn's success must have his advantages.

"Yes,"

Old Jieke also took a sip of milk tea. He looked at He Ao, as if evoking some long-term memories, he sighed softly, "You really look alike."

Then he continued,
"At that time, some people actually tried to unite with other mining industries, but every time they didn't start, they were strangled by the companies supported by the Rockwell Energy Group.
"A lot of people felt at the time that there was such a disparity in power that it was almost impossible to complete a joint mining initiative."

"Skohn is very aware of the problem, but at the same time he also gave another insight,
"He believes that, compared with other cities controlled by the Rockville Energy Group, Winter City has a certain degree of 'independence', and it is easier to break free than a city completely controlled by nature.

"He believes that only cities that are completely controlled by large consortiums are almost impossible to break free from the control of large consortia, and cities like Winter City have a chance."

Speaking of this, old Jacko suddenly smiled,

"Of course, it turns out that his original judgment was not completely correct."

He looked at He Ao, "Do you know San Jon City?"

"Ok?"

Howo looked at old Jacko.

"It's normal not to know, it's a city in the eastern part of the Federation, very far away from Winter City,"

Old Jack thought about it and said,

"I saw the news before, saying that the large consortium that controlled San Jon City, the Kaijet Group, went bankrupt for various reasons, but San Jon City has regained its autonomy to a certain extent, and it seems that the people in San Jon City are It played a big role in it.”

He looked back at He Ao, and suddenly asked in a low voice,

"Willy should have told you about a man named 'K'?"

"Ah."

Howard nodded slightly.

"I knew it, that girl should tell you about this person. The matter of San Jon City was mentioned to me by Willy before, and she said that it was promoted by 'K',"

Old Jacko smiled,

"This little girl often whispers about this in my ear, telling me how powerful this 'K' is, and all kinds of stories, some or not, are just made up, and I don't know if they are made up stories."

The old man leaned on the bamboo chair, his gaze was dim,

"So I went to look up the things in San Jon City seriously,
"Although there are many and complicated reasons that led to the bankruptcy of the Kaijet Group, when I put up the series of reasons like dominoes one by one, I found that the original dominoes that promoted this series were only It takes a light touch at first.

"I don't know if it was accidental or some kind of necessity, but it turns out that 'K' did something that Skohn and I thought was impossible.

"Maybe he's gone further than both me and Skorn in some ways.

"If Skohn is still alive, we should be able to become friends with him."

Speaking of this, he smiled, as if thinking of Willie, "Of course, it's also possible to become a 'follower' of 'K'."

"cough,"

Then he shook his head and coughed, "It's a little far away,"

Then, he said in a slightly emotional sentence,

"We didn't know at the time that our judgment was not accurate, in fact, we trusted our judgment more and more because we were succeeding one after another.

"After confirming that Winter City has the possibility of self-reliance, Skohn carefully analyzed the situation. He believed that the Rockwell Energy Group is constantly expanding, and its sphere of influence under direct control will soon truly approach Winter City, rather than It was far away from Winter City as before,
"And at that time, it is the time for Winter City to 'stand on its own'."

He was watching TV, and a man in a well-dressed suit walked up to Scohen on the TV amidst cheers, and stood side by side with him,
"And before the time comes, we need to make some preparations."

It's a little bit of a calvin, and the next chapter will be updated as soon as possible.
