Chapter 683 Proposal Proposal
The mass protests are over.

The time is fast approaching mid-February.

There is a councilor election in Magic City.

All adult males over the age of 20 who have more than 100 contribution points in their badge accounts have the right to cast a sacred vote.

However, the right to be elected is only available to adult male citizens who have contributed more than 10 points... It is something that a stupid country can do to let the mud legs living at the bottom of the society rise to the sky in one step.

Zhou Ming wasn't very interested in this election, and he didn't sign up to run as a member, but for some reason, after the election started, Zhou Ming's name and profile picture also appeared on the voting box.

The statistical results came out soon. In the residential area where Zhou Ming lives, because many residents know him well and are optimistic about him, he won more than 5000 votes without doing any publicity... In this community, [-]% Many people voted for him.

In a daze, Zhou Ming became a councilor (equivalent to an elder outside).

In early March, in the parliament building, the City of Magic held a plenary meeting to discuss the next five years and the problems that need to be resolved.

Zhou Ming also attended the meeting of 500 people and presented a proposal he had drafted.

"A Proposal to Increase the Permanent Population of the Magical City".

The main content of this proposal is: strive to increase the population of the Magic City to 300 million within three years, and to 1000 million within five to ten years.

As soon as his proposal was put forward, it aroused heated discussions in the entire parliament.

Even a controversy.

Because this proposal is too absurd, it is impossible for the population of Magic City to increase!

"The nutrients in the magic city (corresponding to 'oxygen') can support up to 120 million people to survive. If this number exceeds this number, the nutrient content will continue to decrease, and everyone will be suffocated inside."

"Our environment is closed, and if there are more active people inside, not only will the nutrient supply be insufficient, but the temperature will also rise, and everyone will die of heat inside."

"If this proposal is not acceptable, it will be rejected directly," said the elder who presided over the meeting.

"Don't be in a hurry to dismiss it, Elder Ai Suo Lun, that kid dared to make such a proposal, which means he has his own way, let's listen to what he has to say." The old wolf interjected.

So Zhou Ming stepped onto the questioning desk and answered the questions one by one regarding his proposal.

Facing hundreds of councilors and elders, Zhou Ming said:
"The nutrient problem is the easiest to solve. I have at least ten ways to solve the problem of nutrient balance. I can design a 'magic cultivation machine' to artificially produce a large amount of nutrient and use computer control. Automatically adjust the nutrient content in the magic city."

"The increase in temperature caused by the increase in population is actually caused by the greenhouse effect and the effect of entropy increase. The solution is also simple. Let the Forbidden Curse Mage regularly release large-scale ice and snow magic, and implement artificial cooling...use the power of magic to control the temperature."

"However, I personally think that the best way is to cancel the outer layer of metamural membrane and open our door."

"Yes, the dimensional wall membrane does protect us, but it is too closed and restricts our hands and feet a bit. If it is cancelled, the benefits to us will far outweigh the disadvantages."

Of course, to close the dimensional membrane and untie the shackles of the magic city, Zhou Ming was just imagining it and talking about it. It was impossible for the more than 500 councilors and elders present to agree. After all, the membrane already existed for tens of millions. In the past year, the strong historical inertia was there. How could Zhou Ming's few words break it?

Even the old wolf said that the dimensional wall membrane is the foundation of the existence of the magic city, and it is impossible to open it.

Zhou Ming can only follow his thinking after solving the "nutrient content" and "temperature control" problems of the Magic City. What benefits will it bring to increase the population of the Magic City?

"First of all, as the population increases, the city of magic can carry more knowledge...knowledge and wisdom need to be carried by the population. I know that outside the city of magic, there is an additional city of knowledge, which has the most abundant knowledge in the mainland. , but that’s just knowledge on paper, knowledge on bookshelves, this knowledge is either held in the minds of a few people, or placed there immovably, to be baptized by dust...that’s meaningless.”

"Only knowledge that can flow at any time, be used at any time, and be transformed into behavior guidance at any time is real knowledge!"

"For example, you have recently used the 'Wandu Search' more and more frequently. Do you feel that it can answer more and more questions and become more and more useful?"

"why is that?"

"Just look at Director Kinnear's dark circles. Recently, he brought hundreds of staff members to upload the books and materials in the library to the server day and night, but in more than two months, only two At this rate, it will take at least 2000 years to complete the uploading of all books and turn dead knowledge into living knowledge.”

"So in order to make 'Wandu Search' more useful, the library must expand the number of people enrolled. If 1 people help enter data at the same time, it will only take two years. The function of 'Wandu Search' will become extremely powerful."

"It is said that the number of books in the City of Knowledge is a hundred times that of the City of Magic. If all the books in the City of Knowledge are imported into the server and imported into the database of 'Wandu Search', the function of 'Wandu Search' will be much better. powerful?"

"Of course we have to send at least [-] people to the City of Knowledge to upload the materials."

"There are also database maintenance personnel, intelligent search engine programmers, and personnel in various fields. In order to bring dead knowledge to life, and to make knowledge serve us better...we need a lot of people!"

"Secondly, as the population increases, the productivity of Magic City will also increase."

"Take the first-generation magic mobile phone in your hands as an example. It is only for the development and production of its hardware. In the city of magic, there are more than 1 fields and more than 300 mages, engineers and ordinary workers. Working and serving for it, this does not include more than 1 magic puppets on the assembly line."

"Even so, the output of our first-generation mobile phones is still not high, and it is still about 1 units per month... far from meeting the demand."

"In the future, we will also produce magic computers, manufacture supercomputers, build giant servers, and turn them into products on the assembly line... These tasks require people, tens of thousands, hundreds of thousands, or even millions of people, and these people Ordinary people cannot be all low-quality, they must be scholars or erudite mages with sufficient cultural foundation... We need a lot of high-end talents!"

"In this way, Magic City can produce millions of magic phones, hundreds of thousands of magic computers, and tens of thousands of network and data servers every year."

"Also, the increase in the population of the Magic City is also conducive to the establishment of a complete high-tech industrial chain in the Magic City, and promotes the healthy development of magic technology..."

"Finally, increasing the population of the Magic City is more conducive to the development and circulation of the Magic City's economy..."

Zhou Ming was eloquent, as if he was holding a press conference again. He talked about the advantages and benefits of increasing the population of the Magic City at one point, two point three points. The arguments he listed were very sufficient, and the points he put forward were very convincing .

In addition, after the launch of the "Love Crazy 1" smart phone, the elders present at the meeting realized the bright prospects and infinite benefits brought to them by the era of "digital age", "knowledge explosion" and "big interaction". Among them, most of them have been brainwashed by him.

Now they heard Zhou Ming talk about these advanced things again, and they all nodded like students who were listening to the class seriously, fascinated.

"Yes, yes, everything he said is correct!"

Some people even had this voice in their hearts.

But there are still a few people who express concern: the magic city with only about 100 million people is already very difficult to manage, and when 500 million or 1000 million people flood in, and various conflicts and conflicts arise, how can they manage it?

Hearing this question, Zhou Ming really wanted to blurt out something in his mind: I am not targeting a certain person present, I want to say that everyone present is rubbish!

A mere 100 million people can't be managed well. How dare you say such things?

Is it difficult to manage 500 million people?
Is it difficult to manage 1000 million people?

There is no difficulty at all!
Of course, Zhou Ming didn't want to speak too badly, for fear of hurting their self-esteem, he had no choice but to make a promise: "If you trust me, if you encounter any difficulties in management, you can leave these problems to me, and I will help solve them. "

The congressman who asked the question immediately nodded in relief.

The old wolf on the side was even more overjoyed, and said in his heart: "Haha, boy, what I'm waiting for is your words! Work obediently for us!"

Seeing the bright smile of the old wolf, Zhou Ming was puzzled: "Why is this scumbag smiling so happily?"

The seven elders also seemed relieved and breathed a sigh of relief.

In this way, Zhou Ming's "Proposal to Increase the Permanent Population of the City of Magic" was successfully passed with 497 votes in favor, 10 abstentions, and no objection.
