How Am I Still Alive?

Xue En is the white glove pushed forward by Lu Ping'an's forces. He is a pioneer of reform and also a scapegoat.

There are only two possibilities for him to be dismissed. One is that the entire project fails and there is no need for him to continue working, so he has to take the blame and step down.

Or, he was too successful, the reform was successful, but he took the blame and stepped down.

".What's the blame?"

"Public security is unstable, criminal cases have increased due to layoffs, and some people are holding signs in protest."

Lu Ping'an was silent for a moment, but nodded.

“Good job.”

These reasons are not only typical false accusations, but also everyday troubles that can be completely ignored.

There is naturally only one possibility: taking this opportunity to step down.

"The framework for reform is almost set up. If I don't let go, I will become a nuisance to others."

"A lot of people came in from outside?"

"Not a small amount. It's a good thing you woke up."

"I see."

After the reform is successful, it is normal to pick peaches or share the cake. In fact, as the manager of other cities, if you do not come to gain some experience and benefits, you would be unqualified.

The greatest achievement of the reform is the various self-operating mechanisms, such as how the government manages the extraordinary, the business scope of private enterprises, the treatment and welfare of extraordinary people, etc.

These things cannot be solved by just thinking hard or designing; they require a lot of time and administrative costs, and require a group of unlucky people to "trial and error". To put it bluntly, the results of each reform are the result of a large number of failures and wrong paths, and are a delicate equilibrium reached through compromise among all parties.

"Do you need me to do anything?"

"No, just come forward."

This made Lu Ping'an feel relieved. People who come to copy experience and replicate gameplay are certainly welcome, but as long as resource points are generated, there will definitely be many people who will try to rush over and take over.

Whether in terms of economy, career, or political achievements, this is a huge fortune. It seems that they have not gone too far.

"After Ms. Lin died, Judge Su, a ninth-level scholar, publicly announced that you were evolving towards the eleventh level."

Now, Lu Ping'an completely understood that whether considering the long-term interests of the human race or revenge after he woke up, those who tried to take advantage of the situation would not be too excessive.

Yes, there are still people who take advantage of the situation. After all, one of the rules of a civilized society is that as long as procedures and rules are followed and everyone is playing in the same circle, no one can just throw things on the table.

They came here to "invest" and "participate in cooperative management" in accordance with the rules. Even if Lu Ping'an was awake, they could only deal with it in a legal way as long as it was legal.

"I'll adjust myself. Let's go out for a walk tomorrow."

This is just a small episode, or good news, for Lu Ping'an now.

The worst scenario he envisioned was that the Earth would explode while he was in his slumber. The possibility of this happening was not zero but quite high. Slightly stronger scenarios included being besieged and hunted by other life gods and being forced to wake up from his slumber.

Now that the situation has not collapsed and the reform has been successful, we should thank the relevant personnel.

"Contact Wanjing and thank them for their care."

For a person of Lu's level, no matter when he was dormant, no major problems occurred, he was not poached crazily, and his living space was not squeezed, then someone should be taking care of him.

Lu Ping'an had just woken up and didn't want to work overtime, so he chatted with Xue En from time to time.

"The reform went relatively smoothly. The main reason was that there was no resistance from the people. The Linnu Battle scared everyone."

There is no truly safe zone in this world. No one can predict whether a cult organization in your city will suddenly go crazy, or whether a hole will suddenly be made by an alien evil god. No matter how perfectly you do, you may still be taken away by objective external factors.

In fact, Dongguo has been doing this kind of propaganda all the time, but obviously, no matter how scary it sounds, if it doesn’t happen to you, many people will pretend it never happened.

"By the way, what about the war losses?"

Lu Ping'an went to bed early. He remembered that most of the citizens spent the war in the courtyard, and the Silver Fortress sheltered most of them. Although some urban areas were attacked and the city walls were shattered, the damage should not be too great.

"The final count was probably less than 100,000. Some were missing, some were hit by stray bullets, and some volunteered to go on the field."

Lu Ping'an nodded. Considering the population of the ancient city, this loss was only a single-digit percentage, which was very small.

However, the refugee life and the sudden disruption of daily life should have left a deep impression on the people of the ancient city, and subsequent reforms would have been much smoother.

In the absence of Lu Ping'an, even if Chris is able to take the helm, each department and each senior executive will be relatively independent.

They all want to seek development opportunities in the tide of the times, and will naturally continue to expand and recruit people.

For example, those who make military equipment find that making large military trucks is very profitable, and their R\u0026D departments have also developed technologies that work across multiple environments. Naturally, they will frantically expand their factories and hire people to do the work. In this process, many downstream industries will be created, such as those that maintain truck fleets, install armor plates on them, and provide escort services, which will bring about a series of jobs.

If we do this for each industry and each project, countless projects will flourish during the great development.

".Don't tell me, we need to lay off employees?"

"I've needed this for a long time. I've been waiting for you to get up."

Lu Ping'an knew that this barbecue was not so easy to eat.

The layoffs here are not as simple as just firing some people. That itself is meaningless. As long as the project is still there, so many people will be needed. Forcing targets and hard layoffs will only bring a series of troubles.

"Let each department write a report to declare their importance, then dismantle some departments and invest the project in the private sector."

What needs to be cut are always projects rather than individuals. It may be more appropriate to let go of some things.

"By the way, there is one more thing." Now that they have started chatting, there are still many troubles waiting for Mr. Lu.

Many troubles are coming one after another. I am afraid that even if there are helpers to work overtime this time, Lu Pingan will have to work overtime himself.
