Chapter 3927 My Money
Corruption is not only seen in public companies, but also in private companies, and even more. It’s just that corruption in private companies is considered a skill, because private companies are supposed to grab money by any means, become rich, and not care about freezing to death.
Corruption in private companies is called a skill. Of course, there is still a risk of suicide behind the eight guns.
Arasaka also has various rules and regulations to restrict corruption, but there is always an optimal solution in the rules of the game. Finding the optimal solution can make money legally.
Arasaka has a strict management system. A large company with millions of people is naturally not of one mind. Even Saburo Arasaka’s family has internal fighting. Arasaka has two children, a boy and a girl, but these two children don’t like their father’s management style and are resisting openly and secretly.
There are also many violations of company rules and regulations within the company, which cannot be controlled at all. Fortunately, there are people who come to Night City to pursue their dreams, which can support millions of employees.
Night City has a population of about 10 million, and half of them are not considered human beings, but just serve the millions of people in the company.
Duran is now calculating the company. No matter what projects the company has, he tempts his subordinates to embezzle. When the company's project is just one breath away from completion, this breath can't come up. This breath was embezzled, and the company can only stand still.
Through quantum computing, it is easy to find a breakthrough by calculating all the resources of the company.
So Arasaka Company failed in two projects in succession. They were all good, but they all failed. Although several responsible people were punished, there was no way to make up for the losses.
"My money, how dare these bastards embezzle my money so boldly?!" Saburo Arasaka waved the financial report and roared angrily: "I let them take important positions, how do they repay me? To take the company's money back home, didn't I give them a high salary? A million annual salary, what else do they want?! These insatiable greedy villains, why are there so many greedy people in the world, but so few loyal people?"
A pair of children listened to their father's roar and said nothing.
Saburo Arasaka was very upset about the failure of the two projects.
Conspiracy theorists like to think that the world is controlled by a few bad guys, but in fact they ignore a reality, that is, bad guys need to decentralize power and executors to control the world. As long as they are not the final product, they cannot do everything by themselves.
Once you need others to execute the work, there will be a problem: the plans are made by smart people, but they are executed by stupid people.
Arasaka Saburo made a plan, and he could make a lot of money as long as he executed it well, but the problem is that he can't do it alone, so he needs his subordinates to execute it.
As long as the subordinates swallow a little money during the execution, the whole plan will go down the drain.
Of course, Arasaka Saburo also knows this, so he paid the executors a high salary to ensure that they can actively promote the plan. But Duran came and aroused the greed of the executors. Let them know that they deserve more, so they will make money and the project will fail.
How can Arasaka Saburo not be angry? A good project, which would make a lot of money if completed, was ruined by a few bugs. He roared angrily: "Don't they have any sense of shame? Have they been spoiled by their education?"
"Father, they are the family that has been cooperating with us. They should know the consequences of offending the company. Is there any misunderstanding?" said the daughter.
The planner also knows that he must find a reliable executor, otherwise the executor will lead to a complete loss, so he will find someone he trusts. How to trust?
Trust is very expensive, it does not appear out of thin air, and it takes a long time to cultivate. So usually it is relatives, relatives can communicate and trust, and then it is the cooperating family, which may be marriage, or it may be subordinate...
But even fathers and sons, brothers have internal fights, not to mention relatives and cooperating families. There is no 100% trust, in short, there are risks.
Saburo Arasaka listened to his daughter and said, "You can know a person's face but not his heart. People's hearts are like water and people's movements are like smoke. Who knows what they will do? They were different yesterday and today. In this day and age, even my father cannot be trusted, so how can I trust those bastards?!"
The son's heart skipped a beat, because he really didn't trust his father. Not only did he not trust him, but he also wanted to overthrow him. He was very dissatisfied with what his father did. At the same time, he was a princeling. After his father died, there was a high possibility that his son would succeed him. So many company leaders flattered the prince.
So the father and son were naturally opposed.
Now the daughter also has the right of inheritance, as long as the father makes a will. If there is no will, the son usually takes over. So the daughter also has some supporters, and there may be a civil war.
But we have to wait until Saburo Arasaka dies.
The son said, "Father, calm down. It's just two projects. The company has failed projects before. Why are you so angry? It's not good to get sick from anger."
"Because it's such a pity that both projects were just a little bit away from success. If there were no insects, the projects would be like picking up money. But because of the insects, the projects were directly ruined. How can I not be angry? It was just a little bit away."
If the project was a lot away from success, he wouldn't be so angry, but it was just a little bit away, but it was ruined by insects. How can he not be angry?
"Then punish them and punish their family." said the son.
"Punishment must be imposed, but preventing the project from failing again is the most important thing. If the next project fails again, this year's revenue will be ruined. Without revenue, the stock price will not be stable, and the company's losses will increase. You will be responsible for the next project yourself, don't let me down." Saburo Arasaka no longer trusts others, and can only trust his children, saying: "The future of the company is yours, work hard."
"Yes." The brother and sister naturally couldn't refuse.
In fact, Saburo Arasaka didn't want to give up his position. He has been studying the soul and hopes that he can live forever.
Can they do it with a new batch of executors?
If there is no Duran, they will definitely do it. But when Duran comes, he will whisper in their ears: "Be greedy, no one knows which will come first, tomorrow or an accident. In order to increase the tolerance rate for accidents, it is necessary to master more resources. Bad luck only picks on the poor, and hemp ropes only break at the thin part. Be greedy, if you are greedy, you will not be a poor person, and your life will not be thin but thick. Only by controlling resources can you resist bad luck."
This is not wrong. In order to increase the tolerance rate, more resources are needed. This applies to everyone. Everyone needs to grab resources to protect their own safety.
When a fire comes, a private fire brigade can protect their own house. When a flood comes, their own ark can protect themselves.
As for the water and electricity after the fire, it doesn't matter. As long as their house is still there, they can annex other people's land. After the flood, there is no food, but it doesn't matter. As long as they don't starve to death, they can even exchange a loaf of bread for a beautiful woman. If others sell their children, he can just buy them.
Open an umbrella on a sunny day and close it on a rainy day. The signs of the Bible tell believers that they can make a lot of money when war, famine, plague, and death come. It's time to make a fortune.
When others suffer, they just annex them. This is the wisdom of wandering religion. If you ask if you don't feel guilty about doing this, they are the children of God. God asked them to do this. It's reasonable. They are the chosen ones and they won't have any empathy with pagans.
In short, this is the situation. Duran's whisper makes everyone feel very reasonable. They should be greedy and greedy according to the Bible.
In Night City, this is absolutely true.
Of course, monotheism later shaped the ethics of God's love for the world, but it was a pity that Jesus was killed because of different ideas. Later, the New Testament was created, and the confrontation between the New Testament and the Old Testament has been going on.
Whether everyone builds the kingdom of heaven together or God's chosen people restore the country, the two ideas have been in conflict. Even now, they are still in conflict.
Although some people believe that God loves the world, more people still believe in the Ark's self-rescue. They believe in the Ark, so they accept Duran's whisper.
