Gene from the 13th Department of Bright City

Many people in the scene were silent. Chen Qiao's cheeks were hot, but he had already thought of a countermeasure and immediately changed the subject and spoke.

"Secretary Le Xiao, the current problem is not a small problem. The economy at the bottom has begun to show a trend of chaos. If this continues, the economy at the bottom will increase exponentially, causing inflation by then, and the middle and upper classes will definitely It will be affected.”

Le Xiao asked in response to Chen Qiao's remarks.

"What kind of impact is it specifically?"

Immediately after saying that, a secretary from the General Affairs Section brought up a light and shadow screen, and quickly took out the economic estimation chart of the 2nd Section. The chart has been made clearly at a glance, and the economic trends in the next three months have been made. A very detailed judgment was made.

"This economic flow chart can be downloaded directly if you want to view it in detail later. The current situation at the bottom will not have a big impact on the middle-level industrial structure. On the contrary, it will help the development of the middle-level industrial structure. Now the middle-level industrial structure Everything is only temporary and has not been affected by the problems of the lower class. It is true that many people's lives and work have been affected, but I hope you can think about it and the poverty, hunger and illness of the lower class people for half a century. In comparison, are you really unable to bear it for these few days?"

Chen Qiao didn't know how to answer the question raised by Le Xiao. The situation has completely changed now.

"But why are people from the barrier zone allowed to enter the city?"

As soon as Chen Qiao spoke, Le Xiao put away her smile.

"Are they allowed to continue wandering in the dark and boundless wilderness, waiting for a tragic death? Are they allowed to continue to take up arms and fight against the city? One day the crisis will come, and finally war will break out. This is what everyone thinks Want to see it?"

Le Xiao glared at Chen Qiao, and Chen Qiao turned his eyes aside at this time. Although Michelle had already drafted a speech for Le Xiao, Le Xiao now planned to say everything according to what he thought.

Last night and early this morning, Le Xiao had already learned things from Ivy and Li Ang that she could not imagine. In fact, many things can be understood with just a little imagination. These things have always existed, but they are easily affected by the right to speak and Time completely covers it up.

"More than half a century has passed. I believe many people can see the situation at the bottom. Let's not mention the barrier zone for now."

Le Xiao pressed the table and glanced around the people in the square. There were too many things she wanted to say in her heart, and everything from her past childhood kept reappearing in her mind.

Le Xiao knew very well that he had to break everything down. If he just used some data and some high-sounding words to explain, it would become the same as in the past.

The scene became quiet, and Chen Qiao looked slightly embarrassed. What he just proposed was simply untenable. They just wanted to use this method to make the business department the same as before. Both parties took a step back, and finally everyone reached a consensus.

Chen Qiao knows that this method is very effective, but at this moment, Chen Qiao has no confidence in this method, because it may have worked in the past, but it doesn't seem to work today.

Chen Qiao is still thinking about what to say later. After all, the momentum has grown now. After much deliberation, he can only focus on the barrier area. After all, the middle and upper classes are now unwilling to allow people from the barrier area to enter the city. Feel uneasy.

"I want"

Before Chen Qiao finished speaking, he was completely stunned. He looked at Le Xiao pressing his chest in confusion, and people in the square also noticed that behind Le Xiao, Michelle, Locke, and several others The section chief was also a little confused.

"Then the girl probably doesn't plan to follow the instructions you gave her."

Michelle frowned slightly, King Xue pressed his glasses and smiled slightly.

"Perhaps intuition is sometimes better."

Ivy on the side did not speak. She still clearly remembered the first time this little girl came to her home. No matter how she looked at it, this girl was not suitable to be a senior executive in the business department. However, perhaps her fate was so strange. After the events at the end of the season, she was pushed directly to a tall building by Gene.

"Maybe it will be the same as before."

Ivy laughed easily.

"I just want to say something today. Whether you listen or not, or whether you oppose it, this city is not what you want it to be."

Le Xiao's voice was serious, and many people in the square had serious expressions. Le Xiao lowered his hands and pressed them on the table.

"Since I was very young, I have often asked my mother, my teachers, and some adults around me why the bottom class is so shabby and why the middle class and the upper class are so good."

Le Xiao's voice slowed down a bit.

"But no one can answer this question. Although many people have told me, there is only one answer, because we were born at the bottom. It's a ridiculous reason, right? Because we were born at the bottom, in a run-down and poor community. The ground floor, that's why the ground floor is so shabby. It wasn't until I got older that I saw a lot of new shops opening, and the ground floor became a little better, but by the time I finished my studies, there were a lot of new shops. They are all closed, there are fewer people on the streets, and there is no trace of young people.”

Le Xiao looked at the flashlights that kept lighting up around her, and her expression relaxed a little.

"However, after so many years, the bottom class is still the same as before. Many younger people want to run to the middle and upper classes, and I was no exception. However, can you really escape from all this if you escape from the bottom class? It is a pity that most people Finally, I returned to the bottom. No matter how developed and changed the middle and upper classes were, the bottom remained the same without any changes. The streets were desolate, with only most old people and children, and some people who had returned from the failure of the middle class. I often wonder, after all, That’s why.”

Le Xiao sighed. What she heard last night was that in the past, businessmen at the bottom made money from the bottom and then moved to the middle. Once they established a foothold in the middle, they would sell everything on the bottom. Then the whole family goes to the middle level. Once there is any profitable business at the bottom level, the middle and upper level businessmen will come to the bottom level immediately and immediately make large-scale investments, so that this profitable business can quickly recover their capital. After earning enough After making profits, they will withdraw their capital and leave.

Such cyclical behavior has caused the underlying industries, which are far less competitive in similar money-making industries, to miss out on these business opportunities time and time again, because they cannot compete with large amounts of capital. , so the bottom class continues to return to poverty and backwardness again and again.

The end result is that more and more slums appear.

"There used to be 38 slum areas at the bottom. The per capita income in the area was less than 200 yuan. This has been the case fifty years ago, and more and more slum areas are appearing. I want to ask you, everyone When will you be able to make enough money? When will you be able to take a good look at the bottom? Are you all asked to invest in the bottom again and again, then withdraw your investment and return to the middle level after making money, and invest as soon as you see a business opportunity? As a result, you invest After that, everything has been taken away and nothing will be left to the bottom. Mr. Chen Qiao, do you still need to worry about tomorrow's breakfast? Do you still need to worry about the education of your future children? Are you worried that you may not be able to afford everything after entering the hospital? ?Do you still need to worry about water and electricity bills?”

Facing Le Xiao's series of answers, Chen Qiao did not speak.

"I want to ask everyone here again, are you really gathered here because of the so-called fairness, the so-called administrative department violated the law and allowed people from the barrier zone to enter the city? Is that so? Answer I, whoever it is, stand up and answer me and refute me, are you really standing here because you lost a lot of profits before? Can anyone answer my question? Whoever it is."

Le Xiao glanced around the gathered businessmen.

"What you are doing is nothing like a dictatorship."

A voice came from the crowd, Le Xiao looked over and said immediately.

"Please speak up."

However, after looking around, no one said anything.

"We still have a lot of work today, and we need to get the joint investment company to the bottom as soon as possible. If you have no other questions, please go home and think about what I just said. When will you all be able to put your money If you have earned enough, you can contact me at any time if you want to know more.”

Le Xiao picked up the hat on the side and put it on, pulled it, and then said seriously again.

“I don’t want to see that in five or ten years, the bottom class will still be dilapidated and there will be more and more slum areas than before. It is obvious that the resources in the city are enough to feed everyone, but why are so many people still eating? I can’t afford food. Finally, I want to say one more thing. If you still want to use such strong methods to follow your wishes, our business department will take all measures, whether it is institutional or legal. I will not compromise or give in a step. The people at the bottom must develop. The people at the bottom are the cornerstone of this city and the largest group of people in the city. They have endured for more than half a century. Exploitation and oppression, and now they only get a small piece of the cake, and you gathered here to make a fuss! Why? Why do you ask us to provide you with all the generous resources and not allow us to provide it to the people at the bottom? Providing generous resources, this city is not your toy, let alone a tool you use to make money again and again! Mr. Chen Qiao, is there anything else you want to say?"

Le Xiao stared at Chen Qiao. She was completely disgusted with these guys now. She was angry from the bottom of her heart. Chen Qiao smiled awkwardly.

"Since you have nothing to say, please go back. I want to reiterate that if you want to instigate things, you can do so at any time. Many media have reported too many things from yesterday to today, and these things are true. Yes? I will investigate thoroughly. No matter who it is, since you like to spread some rumors and encourage the public, then I will not let go of everyone who created these rumors. The administrative department will conduct a comprehensive investigation, whether it is If whoever wrote the report is inconsistent with the facts, we will definitely arrest and prosecute you for spreading rumors. This time it will not be like before, you can laugh it off."

As soon as Le Xiao finished speaking, many reporters and media people present showed horrified expressions.

When Locke mentioned this matter last night, Le Xiao immediately explained that only by using the law to punish these media people who spread rumors can the media return to its true state.

Yesterday, CBV basically did not report on this matter. They were reporting on some activities at the bottom, as well as normal broadcasts of TV series, movies, or entertainment and lifestyle programs.

Honghong probably knew about it yesterday because she heard some things from the CBV group. They didn't help either side, as if the matter provoked by the businessmen had nothing to do with them. Now it has come true.

Le Xiao turned around and walked into the general affairs department. Locke laughed, because looking at the faces of many businessmen and reporters, he knew that Le Xiao's intimidation had been effective.

The noise started again, but most people were complaining about something and began to disperse. Chen Qiao walked down from the podium. People from other families had dark faces. Many people knew that trouble would follow. , it is simply impossible for the acting department to negotiate with them as before, and if they use some strong methods, the situation will be even worse.

Some reporters are still interviewing several secretaries and directors of the General Affairs Section. Most reporters are most concerned about what Le Xiao just said about arresting those who spread rumors.

This is a problem that many reporters are worried about, because many reporters did publish some false news yesterday under the instigation of many businessmen. Some small media even directly reported some news after receiving money. People from the Barrier Zone cause trouble in the city.

Le Xiao looked at the sweat on her palms. She was still trembling slightly. After all, this was the first time she felt so free. Since she became a secretary, she had to be cautious when speaking and doing things.

"Behave yourself."

Michelle said, Le Xiao looked at her in surprise.

Ivy walked over with a smile and put her arm around Le Xiao's shoulders. Let's go and have a meeting. This time we won. Le Xiao hummed and laughed easily.

In Le Xiao's view, many people do not understand the situation at the bottom at all, and there are many more people who understand the situation. They have only one idea, to continuously make money at the bottom, make money quickly and then leave.

In Le Xiao's view, many times in the past, the senior management of the business department did not understand the situation at the bottom. Most of the time, they would discuss something with the businessmen and then hand it over to the businessmen. This approach would make the bottom level miserable again and again. become poor.

"There are still a lot of questions for you little girl."

King Xue reminded him, and Le Xiao replied with a smile.

"As long as you do everything as planned, everything will be fine."
