Agriculture Maniac

Chapter 515 Shifting from Export to Domestic Sales
ADM Special Research Group.

Lao Yuan waved his assistant away and looked at the data on the screen again.

After the simulation game was released, it recruited 10 players for closed beta testing. On the surface, the development team deployed 10 AI dummy players, but secretly generated advanced artificial intelligence on a one-to-one basis based on player information.

Advanced artificial intelligence is like a personal assistant in a three-system terminal, knowing all your information.

It will generate a way of interacting with you based on your preferences and family background.

It can predict your behavior and transmit to you the information that the person behind it wants to transmit to you.

It will gradually make you unable to live without it, and then subtly influence your behavior over a long period of time.

Perhaps the AI ​​that spends every day with you, AFKs with you while you do quests, and laughs at your stupid AI teammates is advanced artificial intelligence.

Perhaps the game newbie you encounter in the wild, who keeps calling you "Master," is actually advanced artificial intelligence.

Perhaps the enemy player you've clashed with a few times over is an advanced artificial intelligence.

In short, the emergence of advanced artificial intelligence has made the game world so real that it is difficult to distinguish between reality and illusion.

Then, through a series of game behaviors, such as chatting, arguing, leaderboards, and forum gossip, it subtly influences your worldview and values, ultimately changing your life.

On the bright side, this is a powerful tool for maintaining stability.

To put it bluntly, this is a very terrifying and horrifying social tool.

The higher authorities had mixed opinions on this matter.

However, it is certain that the simulation cultivation game cannot be released for the time being and requires discussion and research.

However, less than two days after its establishment, Second Life Company received certificates and honors from multiple systems in Dongshan.

Within two days of filing for approval, the simulation cultivation game received various operating licenses from multiple Eastern systems.

After a month of closed beta testing, countless game enthusiasts from 37 countries, including North America, Russia, the UK, France, Germany, Italy, members of the Vietnam-Hong Kong-Macau economic circle, 21 West African countries, and five East Asian countries, have called for the game to be introduced to China.

Especially in North America, forums have been flooded with posts from netizens hoping to play a simulation game of cultivating immortality, causing the servers to crash every day.

Of course, people overseas don't know about 'advanced artificial intelligence'; they only know that the game's content is very free, fun, and creative.

Therefore, the public beta test of the simulated cultivation game has become a fait accompli.

No one can stop its growth.

No one can change its covert operations that influence reality and the development of the private economy.

Since that's the case, all Lao Yuan can do now is go with the flow and give it a helping hand.

As people age, they will inevitably develop various illnesses.

As families grow to a certain size, their descendants will inevitably develop various genetic diseases.

Sanyuan Agriculture has already achieved a leading position in certain areas of the pharmaceutical industry.

For example, AAV gene therapy uses adeno-associated virus as a vector to repair genetic defects and achieve a one-time cure for heart failure, cardiomyopathy, osteomyelitis, hemophilia, etc. A single injection costs 350 million US dollars and is in short supply.

For example, CAR-T cell therapy involves extracting the patient's T cells, editing their genes to enhance their ability to recognize cancer cells, and then reinfusing them to precisely eliminate the tumor. It has an efficacy rate of up to 90% for relapsed and refractory lymphomas. This kind of personalized medicine costs $80 per injection and is extremely rare.

For example, a combination of patches and medicated baths uses medicated patches similar to tiger-skin plasters and diluted, heated Chinese herbal medicines to release the medication slowly through the skin, avoiding the gastrointestinal irritation and first-pass effect of oral administration. This is used to treat neurological and brain diseases, and a course of treatment costs $150 million, making it extremely expensive and unavailable.

These things, which are priceless and unavailable, can only be obtained through personal connections.

Therefore, Lao Yuan finally understood how difficult it was for Lao Ren.

While implementing the decisions of superiors, maintaining the three-way relationship, avoiding isolation from powerful families, and paying attention to which sectors foreign capital has penetrated.

After pondering for a long time, Lao Yuan picked up the communicator and dialed a number he knew by heart.

"Comrade Yu Yang, it's been a long time."

"Good leadership!"

"Here's the thing, I want to gain a deeper understanding of the operating mechanism and future development potential of simulation games so that Shanghai Media Group can produce a documentary under the guise of a corporate interview, thereby promoting positive energy and publicizing new products of the new era. The program would be called 'Everyone Has Their Own Talents.'"

"no problem."

...

In 05, with the popularization of electronic devices, "internet addiction" became a new term that people feared.

Some experts and professors believe that internet addiction is a disease that needs to be treated.

In order to make money, some hospitals have set up withdrawal centers and introduced electroconvulsive therapy.

Some parents, in order to avoid embarrassment and gossip from relatives and friends, would rather sever ties than not send their children to internet addiction treatment centers.

In this context, although people know that they can buy things online and register what they want to sell online, it is still unbelievable that they can make a lot of money online.

Just like Liang Zhiyong from Xishan Shuozhou and Wuning County.

In just one month, he amassed over a hundred subordinates, rented an abandoned supply and marketing cooperative, and converted more than a dozen storefronts along the street into company offices, hanging a long row of signs: Dayong Labor Dispatch Company, Dayong Information Consulting Service Company, Dayong Online Sales Company...

It is said that on the day of the opening, not only did all the leaders of the township come, but the county also sent a special car to follow and interview them.

"Dayong, aren't you the foreman? Why are you sitting here playing computer games?"

“Auntie, times have changed. We need to adapt to the times. I’m doing construction work for the village while making some money online when I can’t find any other work.”

"I don't understand. People get old and they really become useless."

"Hey, it works. You're not even sixty yet. You sit here, click this button, listen to what this NPC has to say, chat with it. Work 8 hours a day, and I'll give you three hamburgers. You can have as much water as you want. If you get tired of the hamburgers, I'll give you a three-yuan fast food meal."

"Is there such a good thing?"

"After you've worked for a few years, I'll give you a pension, and you can also get some of your medicine reimbursed in the future."

"Oh my, my little darling, I've never seen you this good before. If you ask me, those who said you were stupid and clumsy before were blind."

"Auntie has good taste. Please sit down and I'll register you. You can start working officially today."

"Does this mean I have a workplace now?"

"Yes, we are a work unit."

"My God, after living most of my life, I never thought I'd actually get a job."

"By the way, Auntie, there are a lot of scammers online. Don't tell me you're almost sixty. You should say I'm not even eighteen yet and I'm the prettiest girl in the village."

"Huh? Hahaha, you can chat like this?"

"You are a young lady."

"I understand, I understand, I can do it."

"Then, when we're having a good chat, I'll say, 'Hey guys, I have some locally grown eggs here, selling them cheap,' or 'My friends, the link is full of local specialties from our village...' If you can't remember them, no worries, the NPC will teach you how to do rap."

"It's just selling things. Your aunt used to sell roasted sweet potatoes at the market, so she knows how to praise them."

"Don't worry, if it sells well, you'll get an extra commission."

After making arrangements with the village women, Liang Zhiyong toured the company and checked on the progress of the "Rural Revitalization - Online Sales Live Streaming of Agricultural Products" project.

When they got back to the entrance, more and more people came to watch.

"Dayong, you can make money online?"

"Absolutely. You can make money through online live-streaming sales, online promotion and posting, writing articles online, writing novels online, and forwarding and commenting."

"What do you think of my child?"

"how old are you?"

"I was 16 years old and dropped out of school after graduating from junior high."

"You're too young. Why don't you come with my construction team and learn plumbing, electrical work, and welding? You'll get 20 yuan a day, but after food and clothing, you won't get all your wages until the end of the year."

"This wage is too low, it's even less than that of a laborer."

“I arranged for him to learn from an experienced master craftsman. It’s already very kind of me not to charge you any money, and I’m even paying you a salary. You should be grateful.”

"Dayong, my child is going!" "My child is going too!"

"Don't rush, take it one at a time."

Wait until noon.

Based on the labor dispatch orders he had secured in the game, Liang Zhiyong sent thirteen or fourteen underage teenagers to construction sites in Liaocheng.

He didn't know how things were arranged over there, but with Xishan and Shiliying as backup, it certainly wasn't a bad thing.

Later, Liang Zhiyong encountered another friend who had borrowed money from him and never paid it back.

"Dayong, I heard you started a company? Don't worry, just give me some work, and once I make money, I'll definitely pay you back."

“Okay, I’ve taken on some sewer cleaning jobs in the county town. You can work with the construction team. It’ll be 20 yuan a day.”

"Aren't you supposed to work in an office?"

“You have legs and feet, and you’re young and strong. Why sit in an office? Why don’t you go and familiarize yourself with the county’s sewage system? Once you’re ready, I’ll send you to do outsourcing work for the county’s municipal administration.”

"To the county government office?"

"Yes, that's a government office."

"I go!"

By the afternoon.

Liang Zhiyong locked himself in his office, eagerly studying 'A New Economic Ecosystem Combining Online and Offline Methods - Rural Areas'.

By evening.

He took the 80 yuan in cash that his game teammates had wired to him under the guise of investing, and used it to contract land with the township leaders.

"Boss, I want to raise cattle."

...

Shili Camp, Trade Hall.

The removal of Sanyuan food products, beverages, and milk powder from overseas shelves, and even the removal of Sanyuan chilled meat products after the control of mad cow disease in North America, has led to a significant decline in foreign trade data.

This has also led to huge losses for foreign trade enterprises.

However, as the trade hall launched the "export-to-domestic sales" initiative and distributed a large number of rural orders eligible for subsidies, foreign trade data instantly stopped declining and began to rise rapidly.

For example, grain-fed beef that costs 20 yuan per kilogram to produce has a wholesale price of 20 US dollars per kilogram and is sold to North America for 180 US dollars per kilogram. After foreign trade is interrupted, the trade hall subsidizes 60% of the wholesale price, foreign trade merchants bear 8 US dollars in costs, and then sell it to towns and villages at 25 yuan per kilogram, ultimately losing 5 US dollars.

Compared to the loss of $20 per kilogram plus shipping costs if goods can't be sold in North America, this amount is negligible for foreign trade merchants who previously made a lot of money.

Similarly, beverages, milk powder, and food products also flooded into countless villages in the East through this private economy network built on the basis of a simulated cultivation system.

Foreign traders lose $5 per kilogram, which is equivalent to a loss of about 40 Hong Kong dollars. The cost of one kilogram of grain-fed beef is 20 Hong Kong dollars. 40-20 means that the trading hall makes a profit of 20 Hong Kong dollars.

These 20 yuan in red banknotes were then transferred into the accounts of rural private enterprises in the form of capital injection, investment, support, and subsidies.

at the same time.

A delegation from Sanyuan Agricultural Components traveled around the world to hold temporary negotiations with countries and regions that were being coerced by North America.

Although these countries and regions have been ambiguous, neither rejecting nor accepting, the negotiations have remained fruitless.

However, as time went on, the more market share North American food manufacturers that used third-party manufacturers gained, the more orders they dumped on third-party companies.

During this process, North American food manufacturers also planned to rebuild food processing plants and various types of farms.

However, the global bumper harvest and the sharp drop in food prices have severely squeezed profit margins. In the costly West, there is simply no need to rebuild the real economy.

Otherwise, you will not only fail to make money, but you will also lose money.

In particular, the Three Systems Forum began to promote the status of grain-fed beef cattle farming in North America, as well as the intensive farming environments for Western cod, salmon, and other species.

The filthy and crowded breeding workshops, and the foul-smelling and black breeding ponds, all undermine global consumer trust in North American beef and Western seafood.

Suddenly, the Sanxi Foods products that had been taken off the shelves began to see a resurgence.

What? It has pineapple in it?

Holy crap, there is such a good thing?

So starting in September, Old Smith’s thousands of supercargo ships made round trips between Qinggang and Nanyang, transporting Sanyuan Agriculture’s self-sold goods to the Tijuana shipyard on the US-Mexico border, and then selling them throughout the Americas under the name ADM.

Then, through BlackRock, which it controls, it simultaneously sabotages North American food companies by conducting investigations, ordering shutdowns, and suppressing their stock prices, while also aggressively encroaching on the North American food market and gaining control of North American food companies through acquisitions, mergers, and equity investments.

Old Bush wanted to disrupt Old Smith's operations, but the North American fleet was concentrated in Europe, and the forces deployed in the Pacific could only harass Smith's fleet at most.

And Old Smith was rich, while the North American soldiers were short of money.

Once the North American soldiers have been paid, they'd probably not only harass cargo ships, but also offer them protection.

9 month 3 number.

On the occasion of the 60th anniversary of the victory of the World Anti-Fascist War.

Representatives from the three systems, attending the Mother Star Joint Conference as advisors on global food security, proposed a comprehensive review of the Japanese islands.

The submitted evidence included: ships under construction exceeding the prescribed tonnage; helicopter carriers under development exceeding regulatory requirements; the clandestine construction of centrifuges to purify heavy elements such as uranium; the clandestine dispatch of spies and agents to acquire the three-system technology; and the clandestine conduct of inhumane clinical trials…

The bears voted in favor.

The French voted in favor.

England abstained.

The East voted in favor.

North America vetoed it.

Subsequently, the West African 21 Group proposed a comprehensive review of North America.

Evidence was also submitted, including: inhumane clinical trials conducted in North America; deliberate spread of mad cow disease; mistreatment of prisoners of war from West Asia; and the theft of crude oil from West Asia…

North America once again vetoed the proposal.

Following this, North America proposed a comprehensive review of Trinity Agriculture.

The submitted evidence included: genetically modified humans, weapons of mass destruction testing, food additives that did not meet North American standards…

Unfortunately, Sanyuan Agriculture is a company, not a member, so the proposal does not comply with the procedures.

The conflict arising from the competition for the food market has not ended.

Finding a rat in your food today, the product expiring tomorrow, the beverage spoiling the day after…

Against this backdrop.

9 month 5 number.

China launched a lunar lander and, taking advantage of the launch window, successfully deployed the lunar robot, "Catcher of the Rye," to the lunar surface.

It is expected that the lunar surface will be sampled within a month and the samples will be returned to the third-generation space station purchased by China Eastern Aerospace Science and Technology Corporation.

Old Huang from Shiliying Subdistrict Office was the first to offer his congratulations.

the same day.

The simulation game "Cultivation of Immortality" has completed two rounds of closed beta testing and is now in global open beta.

The game is free-to-play with in-app purchases and devices that can be bought separately, and it was launched simultaneously in 37 countries worldwide.

And ensure that different game content is available for players of all ages.

For example, at age 6, players can enter the game to start a mini-class and learn about the three systems of education.

For example, at age 12, players can enter the game to learn about science and the basics of three technical systems.

For example, if you are 18 years old, you can move freely in the game.
