979: Chapter 775: Evaluation of Silla’s Historical Events 979: Chapter 775: Evaluation of Silla’s Historical Events At nine o’clock the next morning, Xu Yang convened the “Silla Assessnt.”
The so-called assessnt refers to the regular etings of key internal mbers.
Most influential people within Nestor Corporation attended.
Since the topic was Silla affairs, it was nad the Silla Assessnt.
Xu Yang succinctly presented the situation in North Silla to the participants.
Due to nurous personnel changes over the past three years, Xu Yang also used this opportunity to familiarize himself with the new company executives.
“Overall, that’s about it,” Xu Yang said, pointing at the files displayed as data.
“North Silla is currently facing threats from Modern Entertainnt Company.
We’ve already detected movents of their company forces assembling, and the enemy may launch an attack at any ti.
Furthermore, due to their internal turmoil, even if Modern Entertainnt Company doesn’t initiate an attack, internal chaos could erupt, plunging them into an even worse situation.
Over the past three years, North Silla has consistently provided Nestor Corporation with a reliable supply of minerals, coal, tals, dicinal ingredients, lumber, and animals.
If North Silla were to fall under Modern Entertainnt Company’s control, it would be highly disadvantageous for us.
North Silla has even sent an envoy, Chen Xinchi, seeking our support, speaking with words almost akin to pleading.”
“So, what do you think?
Let’s discuss,” Lila said, glancing at those present.
“Let’s go to war!
Deploy our space mothership to the coastal area of North Silla.
I guarantee that soone will soon raise a rebel flag and take down that warlord, Yin Changmin!
After all, he’s widely unpopular,” Aledy said cheerfully.
“I support Aledy’s opinion,” said Senior Security Supervisor Sato Ryuuji, a stern-looking middle-aged man.
He was also a hardliner, taking an aggressive approach on company matters but adopting a conservative stance when it ca to new technology, refusing to equip his soldiers with body implants.
“Direct military intervention, regardless of whether it’s just sending one or two ships, is unwise.
It’ll only make us appear foolish and violent,” Kanako said coldly.
Although she had her own company, Kanako still served as Nestor Corporation’s Minister of Economics and wielded extraordinary influence within the corporation.
“Using military force would significantly impact our hard-earned global reputation,” Yamanami Kana emphasized.
Previously employed by Xisheng Group, she was now Nestor Corporation’s Chief Product Designer, overseeing nurous product designs and developnts with creativity that surpassed AI.
In fact, she still deferred to Kanako and regarded her as a prominent figure from Xisheng.
“…If we don’t use military force, Modern Entertainnt Company will proceed with their attack.
By then, intervening will be exponentially harder.
Nestor Corporation cannot afford to fall behind,” Mizuiro Yoshioka said.
As one of Farosa’s Seven Witches representing the Witch Division, she didn’t hold a specific stance, speaking whatever ca to mind.
“It’s a pity those ninja intelligence agents haven’t been cultivated yet.
Otherwise, we could send Secret Selection Team personnel to gather intelligence,” Information Minister Du Qianqian said.
Though she was still on the West Coast, she attended the eting via a virtual avatar.
“We don’t need to interfere in Silla matters at all.
Let them deal with their own troubles.
Also, other powers in the Eastern Hemisphere won’t just stand by and watch Modern Entertainnt Company unify,” remarked Hachiman Akira, the rotating Employee Council President.
The council president was elected by the employee congress, changing every three months to represent the general opinion of all employees.
In recent years, the elected presidents were mostly diocre peacemakers with a conservative decision-making tendency, and Hachiman Akira was no exception.
“Based on calculations, if we stand aside, the probability of North Silla collapsing is 78.6%.
At that point, Nestor Corporation will face a robust Modern Entertainnt Company with montum in the flank.
Having resolved their northern threat, Modern Entertainnt Company would quickly develop on the peninsula and compete with Nestor Corporation on multiple fronts,” said the strategic intelligence module of the Hundred-eyes Demon.
Being a module, it lacked the peculiar traits of its main system and rely functioned as an AI assistant providing strategic analysis.
“Intervening in North Silla’s situation could help us test many company products and technologies.
This is an opportunity for a practical evaluation of our company’s operational capabilities,” said Suzuki Yumi, the Chief Implant Engineer.
A seasoned female implant designer aged 30, she was currently collaborating with Nidelaide, sharing mutual implant plans and surgical techniques.
After the key figures finished voicing their opinions, they turned their gaze to President Lila.
“Nestor Corporation will not engage them in direct confrontation,” Lila summarized after listening to everyone’s comnts.
“We won’t deploy any military units from our regular formations to avoid harming our reputation.
We will form a special operations team led by Jin Yuxiu, composed mainly of rcenaries, intelligence personnel, and local Silla insiders.
Their task will be to dismantle Yin Changmin and his inner circle as swiftly as possible, ensuring the reordering of North Silla within 72 hours.
Simultaneously, we will hold military exercises along the borderline to intimidate Modern Entertainnt Company, ensuring they dare not advance north.”
“The president’s words are reasonable.”
“I support the president’s opinion.”
“I agree as well.”
“If it’s the president’s advice, then it must be correct.”
“I also endorse the president’s stance.”
“The president’s decisions always change the tide at critical monts.
I stand with the president.”
Xu Yang noticed that everyone greatly respected Lila.
On second thought, it made sense.
Nestor Corporation was nad after Lila, and as president, she maintained the highest prestige.
Moreover, everyone tended to attribute all of Nestor Corporation’s achievents to Lila, seeing her as soone who could accomplish anything, organize flawlessly, and win any battle—a legendary leader.
Naturally, they wouldn’t question Lila during strategic etings.
“Alright, then let’s take action and resolve the North Silla issue!
I look forward to everyone’s collaboration in the future,” Lila stood up, nodding briefly to the others before dismissing the assessnt.
Attendees gradually left, leaving Xu Yang and Lila alone in the eting room.
She poured Xu Yang a steaming cup of coffee.
“The Silla issue can probably be partially resolved through military force, but ultimately, it cos down to economic developnt.
If we can bring prosperity and peace to the people, then everything will be worth it.
Now they’ve brought the ‘Qiongting System’; do you think it’s practical?” Xu Yang asked Lila’s opinion.
“Master, I just wonder, if installing the ‘Qiongting System’ doesn’t yield a better life for people, then what happens next?” Lila replied.
“Then…
we’ll reassess when the ti cos, learn from practice, and try again,” Xu Yang said confidently about the Qiongting System, though uncertain of its ability to solve economic problems.
Entrusting all economic activity to AI, relying on automated calculations, was unprecedented globally.
But…
is it feasible?
With no precedent to follow and mixed results from computer simulations, the application prospects of the Qiongting System remained uncertain.
Additionally, it was far from fully developed.
Xu Yang run simulations and proposed upgrades for the existing Qiongting System.
If it were up to him, he’d incorporate so critical technologies.
Central to his upgrade plan was changing the underlying architecture to blockchain technology.
This would allow the Qiongting System to be maintained by nurous decentralized network nodes, with each node managing and sharing the database, eliminating the need for centralized coordination.
By maximizing decentralization, no individual could manipulate the Qiongting System selfishly, nor tamper with the data unnoticed.
Without control by any single entity, the Qiongting System could serve the common good.
Collecting real-ti data, making decisions, integrating the entire economic system within its jurisdiction…
Xu Yang believed they were about to experint with an unprecedented system in North Silla.
If successful, it could replace companies and markets to manage economic activities.
If unsuccessful, it would prove that complexities of economics couldn’t yet be handled by an automated system.
All theories were confined to paper—ti to test them.
Regardless, Jin Yuxiu would need to be summoned.
When the Eastern Hemisphere Riot Control Squad was founded, Pan Ruiyi represented Kyushu High Pavilion, while Jin Yuxiu represented Modern Entertainnt.
Following Modern Entertainnt’s devastating loss to Wei Shiyue’s dragon breath, Jin Yuxiu was sold by the company to raise funds, eventually ending up at Jialong Slope.
During the battle to conquer the Great River Goddess, Jin Yuxiu collaborated with 101, 102, Rinne, and Lu Jing to fight against Book Page Peacock and White Salamander, establishing historical ties with Nestor Corporation as an allied figure.
After Kanako seized control of Jialong Slope, Jin Yuxiu was traded again and ended up under Kanako’s command.
Now that Kanako was in Shangjing, Jin Yuxiu had naturally been summoned there as well.
She arrived at a small eting room where Pan Ruiyi was already waiting.
Jin Yuxiu wore a cyan-and-gold one-piece Witch Armor with a sturdy open helt adorned with small feathers at the back, her exquisite face visible.
Her skin was smooth and delicate, her nose petite, and her sharp eyes captivating.
Her tall stature made her look like a regal goddess beside Pan Ruiyi, though one wore cyan while the other wore black.
Before long, Takahashi Kyoko also entered with her sniper rifle.
The trio of forr Riot Control Squad mbers was now reunited, exchanging tacit glances.
“What mission could possibly require gathering the three of us?” Jin Yuxiu couldn’t help but ask.
“Three Dominator Witches!
Together, we could crush any company in the world.”
“The target is Modern Entertainnt!” Pan Ruiyi said boldly.
“Let’s trample them with one decisive blow.”
“Going to war with Modern Entertainnt?
How curious,” Jin Yuxiu observed sharply.
“Being with both of you…
is enough…” Takahashi Kyoko said slowly.
Years of control by Xisheng Group had made her actions and speech peculiar, resembling those of a solitary ghost, unchanged even with improved conditions.
Xu Yang entered the eting room, quickly sending out the relevant reports.
“Here’s the situation.
We must revitalize North Silla and reorganize their order.
All adverse behaviors will be terminated,” he said.
Jin Yuxiu inspected the report on the screen, her hesitation growing.
“Sothing feels off,” Jin Yuxiu sighed.
“What’s wrong?”
“I’m from South Silla.
I honestly don’t care about what happens in North Silla,” Jin Yuxiu said bitterly.
“They hold you in high regard,” Xu Yang said.
Jin Yuxiu shook her head.
“Just because we co from the sa peninsula, am I obligated to clean up their ss?” she sighed.
