Chapter 2292 - 2112: Pay to Win
Chapter 2292: Chapter 2112: Pay to Win
At the time of the fourth-level permission.
What was obtained was a ’covenant on paper,’ and Tang Qing thought it was mandatory, capable of solidifying allies to advance and retreat together, but in the end, he realized he had thought too much.
Indeed.
A country.
Is not an individual.
How could it be constrained by a piece of paper? Even for individuals, breaking contracts is common, thinking a single sheet can bind.
Ha!
How could it be?
Now.
This idea.
Can be realized in a different way. For a long time, the most loyal under Tang Qing has been the Fighters; as for others, even if they could be bought, they might betray.
Therefore.
Many things were done with hands tied. When it involved major interests, people wouldn’t necessarily stand on his side; keeping secrets was difficult.
Surveillance was also needed.
In short.
Very troublesome.
For example.
Previously.
In the “Global Umbrella Plan,” the scale was vast, almost requiring only money to make many succumb, but such relationships were not solid.
Moreover.
When conducting business, if traces are too evident, they could analyze something, harboring risks. Tang Qing had always been worried about this.
However.
In the future.
The situation will be different.
The reward for the fifth-level permission is a kind of semi-mandatory protection agreement. As long as conditions are met, even if someone knows the final big boss is Tang Qing.
It doesn’t matter.
That person wouldn’t dare, nor would they reveal a word.
Enormous functionality.
For instance.
ERV in the United States has supported many legislators. However, these Congressmen also have two clearer identities in the U.S. — members of two major parties.
Behind these.
Who is it?
— Self-evident.
Therefore.
Even if ERV truly ’wooed’ someone, it’s just a display of wooing. If those major consortiums decide to deal with ERV in the future, these people could turn against them in an instant.
Or.
The actions inserted into the U.S. intelligence department cannot be entirely replaced by Fighters, at most replacing ten or twenty percent. Usually, it’s not much.
Play a few tricks and nothing happens.
But.
Once a major incident occurs, it’s hard to handle and easy to expose.
Therefore.
All along.
These Fighters have been acting with hands tied because money couldn’t solve everything. Even if money could solve it, people might turn against them at any time.
Similarly.
By analogy.
Too many scenarios have constrained the depth of power expansion.
Thus.
Despite the vast setup all over the globe, the depth of power has always troubled Tang Qing, an unsolvable problem until now.
There is hope now.
…
“Amazing!”
Tang Qing couldn’t help but exclaim in admiration. It looked a bit fantastical, but compared to the more fantastical system, this sort of thing seemed not too unacceptable.
This time.
His power will see an explosion or, should we say, a solidification of power. Previously, aside from the Fighters, there was almost no restraint on others.
It will be different in the future.
He can truly pull people into the camp, and entry is simple.
First.
The other party acknowledges joining.
Second.
There exists an equitable transaction.
The former is easy to understand; the latter a bit complex. An equitable transaction is the other party feeling it’s worth following you. Wanting to beat someone half to death to threaten them to join.
It’s not feasible.
The transaction doesn’t necessarily have to be money; it could be a matter of any kind. In short, free rides are not allowed. The camp isn’t plunder, but an equivalent exchange.
For example.
If someone loves money and believes that a hundred million can buy their later life to do anything, then giving them a hundred million would count as achieving an equitable exchange.
Another example.
Whoever can avenge me for XX, I’ll sell my life to them — this also counts as an equivalent exchange.
Of course.
Both are quite extreme.
They’re lifetime commitments, whereas more likely, it’s “You give me XX money every year, and I’ll follow you.” Such monetary transactions are more common.
This is the norm.
After all.
There aren’t many people who sell themselves for life, which creates a problem if you want to gain more powerful forces, you can only…
— Cash burn.
Exactly.
It’s cash burning.
The world is a bustling place, and most people are out here for this. Moreover, the position is higher for those legislators or high levels like FIB, the more money it requires.
If you want to bribe the hierarchy of the FBI, CIA, etc.
A year.
It’ll cost at least several hundred billion.
“…”
Speechless.
Tang Qing covered his forehead, ultimately still related to money with the system. Indeed, every three words revolve around money. At this moment, he suddenly felt: I’m about to get poor again.
This is a continuous expenditure.
“Little Two.”
“Here.”
“Calculate how much it would cost us per year to pull the non-Fighter personnel we’ve courted into the camp.” Tang Qing hoped it wouldn’t be too outrageous.
“By the way.”
“Only count those of value.”
He added.
Upon calculation.
Maybe all members of the CIA are valuable, but in an underground force, maybe only a few bosses are valuable. Given this, why waste the money?
A second later.
Little Two provided the answer.
“Commander, two hundred seventy billion Asia Dollars.”
Upon hearing.
It seemed not much.
However.
This is still current, with not enough depth. With such good things, of course, Tang Qing hopes the power grows bigger and bigger, so it’s certainly not limited to this.
For example.
If you want to ’bribe’ the FBI hierarchy, fifty billion dollars a year definitely won’t suffice. Conservatively estimated, the ideal annual maintenance fee for the future camp.
A year.
At least a trillion Asia Dollars, or even higher.
Damn!
Robbery?
“Fortunately, the reward for the fourth-level permission allows earning continuous revenue from the World Organization’s international trade and collateral like gold.”
“Otherwise.”
“We might really not be able to shell out the money.”
Tang Qing sighed.
This world is indeed ’realistic’; cash burning just makes you stronger, once again descending, but Tang Qing likes it, this way he can save a lot of effort.
“Tang Yi.”
“Here.”
“Create a new plan to select current solicited personnel, pull them into the camp, and list the previously risky solicited personnel in the progress plan.”
In the past.
Solicitation was usually needed only in emergencies, each one done very cautiously, fearing messing up, after all, perhaps a person may spill everything over a meal of wine.
The risk was too big.
These kinds of people are numerous.
Therefore.
“Authorized funding limit, five trillion Asia Dollars.” Tang Qing continued, although money can’t solve everything, as long as it can solve most targets, it’s enough.
The rest.
To be gradually tackled.
Camp.
Is not equivalent to control and fundamentally differs from Fighters. Actions like ordering the other to die are unattainable, the main functionalities of a camp are two.
First.
In terms of collaboration, agreements will be abided by.
Second.
No leaks, even under torture or other means.
In short.
It’s much like the ’World Organization,’ relatively loose. However, in the field of cooperation, the same camp can be achieved, with equivalent exchanges that must be adhered to.
Image it as.
It is a kind of ’contract protection’ mechanism.
Cash burn.
Can maintain it.
No money?
Hehe!
Thinking about it, it feels good too.
Simple and clear.
No need to worry, although many people cannot be solicited or bought, what Tang Qing wants is the big picture developing in the direction he desires, not controlling everything.
