A Trillionfold Windfall: A Roundtable Meeting of Earth's Powerhouses
Jiangnan Base City, Earth Future Strategy Conference Hall.
As the four people with the highest status on Earth, Tang Ping, Hong, Thunder God, and Luo Feng are all hands-off managers. Therefore, Xu Xin's proposals for upgrading and transforming Earth encountered almost no obstacles and were passed unanimously.
This result was actually expected.
The Luo Family has a complete and large think tank behind them, supplemented by advanced intelligence for layer-by-layer verification and sorting. Every proposal takes into account all aspects, accurately balances the interests of all parties, and basically has no oversights.
More importantly, Hong and Thunder God had long since transcended worldly concerns and did not care about minor gains or losses; as for Tang Ping, he had already reached the realm of Cosmic Overlord, and the Hunyuan Units were nothing more than a string of insignificant numbers to him, so naturally he didn't care.
Once all the routine topics were settled, Xu Xin revealed the core of the meeting. "The last item concerns the profit distribution after Earth's upgrade."
"Theoretically, after the transformation is completed, the number of pregnant women the Earth can support will exceed ten billion, which means that the Earth's annual basic income will increase a hundredfold!"
These words put everyone in a good mood.
As Luo Feng conquered the World Lord Level Original Tongtian Mountain, the number of maternity slots on Earth has skyrocketed, with the price of a single slot now soaring to ten million Ganwu Coins.
Not to mention the series of high-profit sub-industries that have emerged in recent years: star-rated Maternity Centers, customized food, clothing, accommodation and transportation packages, prenatal education, precision genetic testing, potential development programs - each of which is a money-making machine.
Moreover, the beneficiaries are not limited to Earth. To ensure their children don't lose at the starting line, pregnant women from extraterrestrial races are even more willing to spend a fortune on this "Earth origin."
Based on this calculation, the profit that a single pregnant woman can generate could reach as high as 20 million Ganwu Coin.
"If we calculate based on the billions of pregnant women each year," Xu Xin said, emphasizing each word, "Our planet, so insignificant it's almost invisible on the star map of the Ganwu Universe Kingdom, will generate a staggering 6.06 Hunyuan Units of revenue annually!"
Six Hunyuan Units a year! That number is terrifying.
Of everyone present, apart from Tang Ping and Luo Feng, the total assets accumulated by the others over ten thousand years would not equal their income in this one year. Even the detached Thunder God couldn't help but hold his breath at this moment.
Xu Xin continued without pausing, breaking down the shareholding structure. "Based on the current shareholding structure on Earth, Tang Ping holds 30% of the shares transferred by the Cosmic Galaxy Bank; of the remaining 70%, the Luo Family holds 45%, Hong holds 20%, Thunder God holds 15%, and Tang Ping holds an additional 20%. After comprehensive calculation, the final shareholding distribution is: Tang Ping 44% (major shareholder), Luo Family 31.5%, Extreme Martial Arts Dojo 14%, and Thunder Martial Arts Dojo 10.5%."
She then changed the subject. "Originally, the Luo Family planned to rename the original Vanke company 'Earth Cradle' after important personnel reported that the name was unlucky, in order to promote its listing and financing."
According to the listing agreement of the Cosmic Galaxy Bank, at least 20% of its shares must be sold for financing. Currently, Earth's combined valuation with the Cosmic Galaxy Bank and Virtual Universe Company is 100 Supreme Treasure Points.
"Everyone should know that 1 Heavy Treasure Point is equivalent to 10 trillion Hunyuan Units, and 1 Supreme Treasure Point can be exchanged for at least 3,000 Heavy Treasure Points, and they are always in high demand but short supply." Xu Xin's tone became serious. "Even so, this valuation is still lower than the true value of Earth. But the essence of financing is to exchange profits for capital. If you want to quickly recover funds, you must pay the corresponding price."
Moreover, Earth has only been developing for ten thousand years, and apart from Luo Feng and Hong, no other top geniuses have emerged. Based solely on its core advantage of "enhancing mental understanding and cultivating a large number of Spirit Reader," this valuation is already quite good.
"If 1000 trillion shares were issued based on Xu Xin valuation, each Human Race would be worth 1.98 × 10 Ganwu Coin...
This means we must confront a hidden danger: these powerful forces are highly likely to use financial means to seize equity, and may even covet the Earth itself.
She took a deep breath and gave her final conclusion. "Therefore, the Earth Cradle Company's IPO plan is tentatively and permanently cancelled."
Upon hearing this, Thunder God breathed a sigh of relief.
He knew very well that such a huge fortune was beyond his means; taking it over rashly would only bring him death. He didn't have the same deep connections as the other three.
Xu Xin continued, "Since the listing has been cancelled, the annual profits of 'Earth Cradle' company, after deducting basic expenses such as Solar System security maintenance and core machine operation, will be used entirely for dividends, with an average annual dividend of about 6 Hunyuan Units."
Of this, the Luo Family will allocate 20% of its profits to the "Earthling Lineage Compensation Plan," which will cover expenses such as survival security, medical benefits, talent cultivation funds, and hero compensation for all ordinary people with Earth residency.
"Brother Feng is so generous!" Tang Ping immediately gave a thumbs up and replied with a smile, "In that case, I'll also contribute 20%. It's taken from the people, so it should be used for the people. Besides, what would my Tang Family descendants need so much money for? Do you think we'd be content with a life of luxury like me?"
That won't do! I've got enough of enjoying life on my own!
Luo Feng: "--"
Xu Xin:
Thunder God:
After a moment of silence, Hong and Thunder God exchanged a glance, and Hong spoke first, "The Extreme Martial Arts Dojo has a large number of disciples who need care, so I will contribute 5%."
Thunder God immediately gave a thumbs up and said loudly, "Then I'll also contribute 5%!"
Looking at the scene before him, Luo Feng smiled with satisfaction, "May my fellow Earthlings have an increasingly bright future."
Tang Ping casually picked up an ancient Huaxia Imperial Cup, filled with amber-colored spiritual wine, and loudly proposed:
Come on, cheers! Let's encourage each other!
Thunder God looked down at the ordinary glass in his hand, then glanced at Tang Ping's ancient and imposing Imperial Cup, and fell into deep thought.
That kid always manages to come up with something new and interesting!
In the interstellar age, time seems endless, but efficiency has increased dramatically.
After all, this is an era where strength reigns supreme, and the will of the strong can determine everything. Nowadays, most businesses on Earth are actually managed intelligently, and plans finalized in meetings can be implemented quickly without cumbersome procedures.
Therefore, the next morning, a striking red announcement popped up on the Personal Terminals of every resident of Earth.
[Announcement Regarding the Implementation of the Earth Cradle Project:]
First: Earth will undergo modular upgrades and renovations. During the renovation process, the normal needs of the existing extraterrestrial mothers will be guaranteed, and the process will be carried out in stages. All renovation costs will be fully borne by the Luo Family.
Second: Launch Population Optimization Plan.
All unemployed, propertyless individuals whose cultivation level is below the Domain Lord level will be systematically removed from Earth. Those who own property but are unemployed can choose to sell it or entrust the Luo Group to rent it out on their behalf; the property can be sold at any time. If their descendants reach the Domain Lord level, they can apply to return to Earth to live at any time.
Third: Earth will build a new "Galaxy Comprehensive University", equipped with World Lord Rank and Immortal Level famous teachers to personally teach and guide students, fully guaranteeing the cultivation of geniuses, and all courses and training resources are completely free.
All Human Race with Earth residency or born on Earth are eligible to apply.
Fourth: Comprehensively improve basic livelihood benefits, optimize welfare and security for primary and secondary school students, and significantly increase special benefits and resource allocation for gifted students.
The announcement immediately sparked heated discussions on the Earth Global Communication Channel, with various comments flooding the screen.
Gray R: "What the hell? People below the Domain Lord who are unemployed and propertyless are being purged? This is blatant class discrimination!"
I've lived on Earth my whole life, why should I be asked to leave just like that? Does the Luo Family really think they're some kind of local tyrant?
I refuse to accept this!
Morning Light Moon Like a Dream: "Objectively speaking, the modular renovation doesn't affect existing business, all expenses are covered by the Luo Family, and they're even building a free Galaxy Comprehensive University. Isn't that already very generous?"
In an era where strength reigns supreme, it's perfectly reasonable for the strong to lead development and elevate the overall level of the planet. I support it!
The Fierce Big Dog, "Ha, free training of geniuses? More like a selection process for 'harvesting leeks,' isn't it? Besides, they call it 'population optimization,' but really it's just that they think the poor are lowering the Earth's standards."
Only those with refinement and wealth can applaud; the lower classes don't even have a place to live.
Green Hoodie: "Is it possible that this is an inevitable path for Earth to move towards a higher civilization? It is indeed difficult for those below the Domain Lord to adapt to the pace of development of Earth after the transformation. Moreover, the announcement also stated that the property can be sold or entrusted to a rental agency, and it is not a complete extermination."
The key point is that this is free guidance from an Immortal Level master teacher—a tremendous opportunity for Earth's geniuses!
"Not Set: 'Laughable. So the will of the strong determines everything, huh? Then why don't you just kick out everyone below the level of a Realm Lord? What's with the pretense of humanitarianism? I want to see who benefits in the end.'"
My Little Carp: "The Luo Family is so arrogant? Does that mean I can't stay on Earth just because I'm not Domain Lord? I won't accept this! Brothers, let's get them!"
The system notified me that my My Little Carp has been banned from speaking for a thousand years.
Everyone:...
