Chapter 1157 Amusing Yourself to Death? Or Does Entertainment Save the World?
Entertainment saves the world? Instead of entertaining yourself to death?
This is certainly not a joke.
History has proven countless times that when a country's economy declines, only the entertainment industry can save the entire country!
What can the entertainment industry do?
Let people live in intoxication and forget the troubles of life?
Let people throw away money and spend all their savings? To revitalize the economy?
shallow! It’s so superficial!
An idol star controlled by those in power can easily unite the people's faith!
A perfect enough virtual reality simulator can greatly shorten people's learning time, and can even train a large number of elite soldiers in a very short time!
Just like the computer games on earth that were once popular around the world, after the birth of real virtual reality technology, they all suddenly changed. Shooting games became more and more realistic and militarized, and later they simply became It became a military-controlled operation, used to select civilians with shooting talents to recruit into the army. Action and competitive games began to explore the limits of human reaction, and even caused many people to react faster and faster after leaving the game. The body cannot keep up with the reaction speed, forcing the body to continuously become stronger to adapt to the nerve reaction speed, thus indirectly affecting the evolution of human beings...
These are the benefits of the entertainment industry.
Tang En now wants to build Beatrice into a national idol, and Beatrice is under her control, so she can completely assist Tang En in instilling positive thoughts in people in songs and performances, and be loyal to Tang En. What a concept!
What Tang En wants to do is to create something similar to a virtual reality simulator, so that people who have no awakening talent can also have access to military training. Not only let them go into battle to kill the enemy, but at least let them master it. With sufficient ability to protect themselves, once war breaks out, these people can be put to use if they put on equipment.
Of course, the leap directly to that step is a bit too big, so what Twain needs to do now is to create an entertainment industry and let people discover that besides listening to bards singing songs, besides playing Gwent, In addition, there are other means of entertainment.
Then he digs deeper and intrigues people little by little, until he deceives them all into his trap.
The reason Fiona doesn't understand now is simply because the entertainment industry she understands is just an industry that helps people relax and promote consumption, similar to a brothel - yes, she just thought that Tang En decided to open a prostitute. .In hospital.
...Although from a certain perspective, there is nothing wrong with this understanding, it is still too superficial!
"The development of the entertainment industry does not happen overnight, especially now when the Illrus Empire is in a state of desperate need. People are under great pressure from work. When they return home, they have no other way to relax except creating people. Magic energy projection The current cost of receivers is still too high to be popularized quickly, so we must find a way to promote a cheap and effective entertainment method as soon as possible."
"The chess and card room is a very good choice. In addition to Gwent, we can also add entertainment facilities such as poker, mahjong, and table tennis. We can even organize some competitions and provide bonuses to stimulate people to take the initiative to learn these things, etc. Once they get used to it, they immediately fall in love with it.”
Fiona frowned: "But I always feel that these things will only make some people lazy and lose their fighting spirit. I think under the current situation, the entertainment industry is something that we don't need to consider at all. We don't have that much time at all." Go waste.”
"You're too nervous."
Tang En patted Fiona on the shoulder and said earnestly: "Nervousness is certainly a good thing, but if the nerves are too tight, they will break. Next, our development speed will further increase, and people will also get faster and faster." They are getting more and more nervous, and the pace of life will be faster and faster. If they always have such a boring military life, they will collapse sooner or later - or they will rebel if they don't collapse. You must know that not everyone will believe what I say, let alone Not everyone will understand the crisis we are going to face, so we have to let them adapt little by little."
After Fiona was silent for a while, she slowly said: "What you said makes sense, so let's do what you said. However, in order to prevent the entertainment industry from flooding, the operations of this industry must be included in the supervision. As for the market, , let other chambers of commerce do it, we will still follow the original policy."
Fiona, who was used to making a lot of money, looked down upon such meager profits and was too lazy to compete with those small chambers of commerce for profits. She simply followed her original practice and directly bought shares, providing them with ways to make money and a market, and sending people Go check the accounts regularly and just sit back and collect the money.
Tang En thought the same thing. Now that they have more and more things to pay attention to, how can they still have the energy to cover everything? It would be good if they can continue to pay attention to the market formation. As for the later follow-up investigation, forget it.
He nodded and continued: "These entertainment rooms are just the first step. Next, we will move to several key large cities in the Illus Empire, such as Ellington, Alyinx, and Taris. Hanging Ax Castle, Phila, Anthem City, and even Blood Rock City are all building large amusement parks or theme parks in sequence. Because they involve subsequent plans, these parks must be operated and managed by our own people. .”
"So we need to set up a sub-chamber, Datang Entertainment, to be responsible for operation management and subsequent development work. At the same time, its powers also include discovering and cultivating talented idol stars like Beatrice to further increase the number of people in the entertainment industry. personnel."
Fiona said while recording: "I roughly understand your idea. Building these amusement parks - although I don't know what they are, you should have other purposes, right?"
"certainly."
Tang En chuckled and said, "I'm not just trying to get them to play...but if we can't attract enough people to participate in the early stage, we won't be able to continue to promote the follow-up plan."
"Oh? Do you have any other great ideas?"
Fiona glanced sideways at Tang En, as if she didn't quite believe that he could have any creative ideas other than copying things from another world.
"Of course! Are you looking down on my creativity?"
Tang En raised his eyebrows and whispered into Fiona's ear for a while. Fiona frowned at first, but after listening to Tang En's description, her eyes widened and she looked astonished. : "Are you sure you want to do this? Although... it may be useful, but... the risk is too great, right?"
"So this requires us to control the risks. We should not only make people accept this kind of project, give them a strong enough stimulation and sense of achievement, but also minimize the risks, especially there must be no casualties."
Tang En said with a smile: "But according to our current development situation, these problems are not big problems. We can solve them by using our brains."
"If that's the case...it works!"
Fiona was excited. According to Tang En's description, this is indeed a very good idea. It can not only stimulate economic consumption and relieve people's stress in boring lives, but also allow them to gain valuable experience. It can be said that it is Kill multiple birds with one stone.
"It's just that the early construction work will consume a lot of labor resources, so..."
Tang En smiled and tapped Fiona on the forehead: "You need to discuss with Ollie how to mobilize more people to join the labor construction."
"Not only labor resources, but also a lot of construction resources."
Fiona rolled her eyes: "I don't know what the so-called amusement parks and theme parks are, but from your description, there will be a lot of entertainment facilities there, and these facilities will definitely consume a lot of metal ore. So, urge Croto and the others. The Frozen Moon is about to pass. In the past two months, they have transformed less than ten golden statues to join the team of star mining. The efficiency is still not enough. , according to my calculations, if you want the entire Purandar to meet Ellington's construction standards, at least fifty golden giant statues will be needed to mine resources day and night. If you want to speed up the pace of development, you must further increase the metal refining industry. The scale of mining will increase to about a hundred gold giant statues to meet our basic needs for the development of the entire world."
Tang En shook his head: "If we want to further prepare for war preparation materials, this quantity will increase more than ten times. The faster society develops, the greater the demand for various resources. This is not just a gradual growth curve. As development speed increases, the resources required are likely to double.”
Fiona sighed with emotion: "It's fortunate that we have a star base. Otherwise, our current mining efficiency alone will definitely not be able to meet our needs in the future."
After the matter was settled, the two began to discuss the details, especially the supervision and management plan of the chess and card room, the design of various entertainment projects in the playground, etc. After the discussion became more in-depth, Tang En simply went to I called Alleria over. She knew a lot about politics, and she should at least know how to standardize a brand new market.
It took them a full week to finalize a complete set of implementation plans, including complete market supervision and management regulations, as well as various operation and promotion plans in the early, middle and late stages. In order to achieve the best results, Alleria even decided to use The power of the country will be used to promote this project as soon as possible.
So, in the dawn month (January) of the Order Calendar, 851, the third year after Tang En came to Purandal, a large-scale construction that affected the people of the whole country suddenly started with great vigor!
