Chapter 350 Social Changes, Worry
Lelani's condition stabilized. After half a month of repeated tests, the space ball she swallowed had no adverse effects - perhaps the only effect was that Lelani added another superpower.
This ability can convert a large amount of food into energy and store it in the stomach (space ball). Well, that is to say, Lelani can eat it for half a year now, or she can eat it for two weeks in a row!
When Lelani finally understood the meaning of this ability, she was determined not to let go of the mission God gave her.
She wants to make full use of this ability - she is going to travel around the world with anonymity, eat all the specialty foods in the world, and write a masterpiece containing specialty foods from all over the world!
"A Thousands of Delicacies You Don't Know", Lailani has even thought of the title of the book.
——————————————
After seeing off Lailani, who was determined to walk around the world, she asked her to pay attention to Nuwa's bloodline when she was eating all over the world. Liu Shengyuanhe began to study in Jinao Island again.
But now, he takes some time every year to go back to his ancestral home to accompany the third generation of the Yagyu family.
Getting along with children can make Yagyu Motowa feel that he has a lot of "human flavor" and is very beneficial for stabilizing his mentality.
However, children have a side that is likable and sometimes annoying.
The three little radish heads often put forward some strange requests that made Yayoi Moto-hea--for example, Xiao Yezi asked her to help her grow nine fox tails on her butt like Dabai can grow hair.
Not to mention that Yayoi Tomokazu could not do this, even if he could do it, he would not dare to agree. Otherwise, his mother, Masako Minamida, wouldn't have to fight for herself?
Yagyu Motohe quickly explained to Sakura, then slipped back to Jinao Island, indicating that he was out of sight and was not upset.
However, he later heard that Xiao Yezi had this idea because he watched a cartoon "Nine-tailed Fox".
The company that produced this cartoon has now been fully acquired by the Yagyu Consortium and instructed the "Nine-Tailed Sky Fox" project team to produce children's courseware with the characters in the "Nine-Tailed Sky Fox" series as the main character - specially designed for several small carrot heads in the Yagyu family to use.
When Yayoi Motoka heard the news, he could only shake his head - this was a child born with a golden spoon in his mouth. The Yayoi family was willing to pay any effort to cultivate the next generation.
The Yagyu family is so rich and powerful that it is inseparable from the Yagyu family's income sharing at Future Robot Co., Ltd.
———————————————
From three years ago, the moment the first intelligent robot of Future Robot Co., Ltd. stepped down from the production line, the whole world entered a state of excitement, panic and rapid advancement.
Just like in the era when the Internet entrepreneurship just began, in a room that was so simple that there were only computers and network cables, young people were planning the future with aspirations, hoping to show their skills at the forefront of the times;
The tycoons with rich assets were worried and gathered their think tanks to carefully analyze which industry will be eliminated by this era and which industry will rise in this era again;
Venture capitalists are unprecedentedly active. Perhaps entrepreneurs can attract more than one investor just by coming up with a good idea and making a beautiful PPT document.
What is even more tense is that leaders of various countries. Every time the world's productivity suddenly leaps, it is an era of major reshuffle. Some countries rise and some countries decline, and no one can stay out of it.
The EU's seven-year plan, Citi's three-year plan, and the Asian Community's ten-year plan were issued one after another. These policy-oriented documents were not confidential, so Yagyu Motokazu also quickly saw these documents.
In the past three years, the development of the situation is different from the social unrest caused by Yagyu Moto and the unemployed army that originally expected. Whether it is the Asian Community in the East, Citigroup and the EU in the West, no matter which political system, it will put the improvement of people's welfare first in their respective development plans!
————————————
In fact, Yagyu Motoka's insights are still incomparable to these politicians, politicians, and sociological research experts.
Although the so-called "Bricks are called beasts" is a derogatory term, these people are not without real skills. It's just that everyone sits in different positions. These experts will not tell you the truth at all. On the contrary, they will only say something that is beneficial to them.
One thing is saying that what they say makes sense, but instead they say that they can say it well - can incompetent people do this?
For example, some bricks are vigorously promoting on TV that real estate prices can continue to rise forever and put forward various arguments, which makes people seem completely inappropriate to housing prices not rising;
But if you can see his personal tax registration, you will understand why he said that - he is a senior consultant of the real estate group. He doesn't say that the house will increase the price. Do you say that no one should buy a house?
Yagyu Motoka was just working behind closed doors. He had read several related history books, but he certainly could not compare with these people.
————————————
In fact, there have been precedents in various countries for the disappearance of jobs and large-scale unemployment in scientific and technological development and changes. Experts and scholars who have done this research have also proposed various solutions.
But there is one thing that everyone has basically the same view, that is, the necessity of improving social welfare.
Speaking of modern social welfare, this concept emerged during the British-dominated industrial revolution, and it is not the same as the social welfare of ancient charitable nature.
Modern social welfare refers to feeding part of the dividends of social development to vulnerable groups in society, so as to enhance the sustainable development of society and reduce social contradictions.
It is a social development dividend distribution plan and a social system that does not have any charitable nature.
Of course, it is not a bad thing to be charitable. It is a modern social welfare that becomes a social system and can make people feel at ease - there will be no feeling of being given alms or inferior to others.
At the same time, modern social welfare also represents a social bottom line, which represents the bottom line in which this society can survive no matter how difficult it is.
Don’t underestimate this bottom line. In fact, even in modern society, there are only three poles in the world, AFC, the EU and Citigroup. After all, no matter how small the expenditure is, multiplied by the number of all citizens, it is an amazing number.
This part of the expenditure must be spent from taxation and government finances, so this creates a contradiction - a society with high tax rates can support a society with high welfare. However, high tax rates will increase the operating costs of enterprises, reduce the international competitiveness of enterprises, suppress the development of enterprises, and thus cause operational difficulties for enterprises and reduce tax payments.
Although governments in all countries in the East and the West have written to increase social welfare benefits on the first page of the development plan, the specific plans are different.
The Asian Community in the East has introduced a series of policies mainly based on the red flag.
The more people a company hires, the lower the tax rate; while the tax rate of all companies that use robots to produce can even be increased to more than 70% of the net profit.
Reform the tax physique, force the promotion of automatic accounting system, and intelligent robots have replaced the traditional accounting industry.
Some civil servants in low-tech positions and public institutions are forced to be laid off for training (counter reception staff, charging personnel and government service staff for the masses, etc.), and intelligent robots are responsible for this simple work.
Vigorously develop tertiary industry and high-tech development enterprises, and use the development of film and television industries, computer industries, and various other high-tech enterprises to increase jobs;
Vigorously promote the application of intelligent robots, reduce the cost of manufacturing and use of intelligent robots, vigorously develop the education industry, increase education subsidies, etc.

"Hey, Director Zhang, are you-?"
"Old Li, don't call me Director Zhang, just call me Lao Zhang. Everyone is retired, why do you still mention this? Isn't this the social security fund reform? When the children travel abroad, I'll help register. Where are you?"
"So too. Nowadays, children are really lucky. They go out for travel if they have nothing to do. My children also travel to Japan. I remember that when we had time and no money, and when we had money, we didn't have time, and we had never traveled a few times in our lives. Hahaha--"
"Yes, by the way, Lao Li, you should have both time and money now, right? I remember that the pension has increased three times. How much do you have a month now?"
On the AFC, many people do not value personal income, such as private privacy. Generally speaking, when others ask, they say it—especially, everyone is originally from the same unit, knows the bottom line, and has no sense of confidentiality.
"It rose once in March, and now it's only over 6,000 yuan a month. Where are you, Lao Zhang?"
"I'll have a little more, less than a little more."
"Ha, Lao Zhang, you have suffered a lot of losses. When you are in the position, you have to have 20,000 or 30,000?"
"It's not as much as Lao Li thinks. It's about 15,000 yuan. In the past, I had some car stickers and oil stickers, but it was only about two or three thousand a month."
"Ha, Director Zhang, you are so modest." Old Li stopped asking, although he did not believe what Old Man Zhang said.
No matter where, the lower class people always have some malicious speculations about officials, which is not unique to the AFC - unfortunately, these speculations are often groundless.
The spacious and bright service hall is deserted, with only a dozen people going through the procedures.
"Huo, why are there so few people today?" Old Li blurted out in surprise. People were often surging here, and it took an hour or two to queue.
"Old Li, it's not that there are few people, but that's the job is fast!" Lao Zhang observed more carefully. The originally isolated counter was gone, and more than thirty round tables were scattered in the hall. The few people coming to do business only took more than ten seconds, and the results were only three minutes later.
"Hello, what service is needed?" A robot with eight legs ran over and asked in a gentle female voice.
"Wow, robots are used here too?" Old Li fussed.
"Hello, what services are needed?" The robot repeated.
"Well, I'll register for changes in social security fund for my son."
"Please wait——, okay." The robot said gently.
"What-?" Lao Li's ID card had not had time to take out his pocket.
"Wait, how do you confirm my identity? Do you know what procedures I need to go through?"
Old Li quickly called the robot that was about to turn around to handle the procedures for Director Zhang and asked.
It was over in just a few words, which made Lao Li very uneasy and didn’t even have a process of signing. Has this been done?
"Please rest assured that through facial recognition, your identity has been confirmed, the request you made has been recorded, and we have verified the electronic authorization given to you by your son Li Gang yesterday. Based on the above conditions, the application requirements for changes in the social security fund have been met, and the specific receipt has been sent to your mobile phone."
The robot finished speaking politely and turned to serve Lao Zhang.
————————————
The two of them quickly completed the procedures, and it only took about two minutes to add up, which was much more efficient than before.
"The technology now is amazing. This robot is no different from a living person."
"Yes, coupled with big data and Internet support, this robot is much more powerful than humans. It turns out that those service personnel have to check on the computer for a long time, and they have to print stamps and take pictures, and they have to scan their IDs. The robot is in place in one step, saving even the computer - they are computers themselves, their eyes are cameras, and they directly use the facial recognition system to confirm their identity. No wonder they can do it so quickly."
"Old Li, the robot is now very efficient, but it lacks some humanity. In the past, when people were responsible, everyone could talk nonsense. Now, the robot is polite, but there is always a cold feeling."
Although Lao Zhang appreciates the efficiency of robot reception, he still feels that it is more comfortable and considerate to use people to serve.
"Come on, Lao Zhang, that's you. You can talk nonsense. You are a bureau-level leader. People like us will look up to you everywhere. Let's not talk nonsense. Even if we prepare the materials, they like to ignore them.
If you don’t have anything missing, they just say that there is no material, so they will send you back and run errands again. In the past, I went through the property transfer procedures, and the three departments ran back and forth sixteen times, and their legs broke - you, the director, must not have such experience, right?
I think this kind of robot is still very happy to do things now.
What kind of humanity is it? The humanity of these people is not prepared for us ordinary people."
Old Li obviously has a lot of inappropriateness. He may not dare to say it when he was working before, but now he is retired and his pension is not collected at the unit, and he is not afraid of wearing small shoes, so he naturally says whatever he has.
"Old Li, Old Li, I can't tell that you are so honest, and you still have such a big resentment in your heart."
Lao Zhang used to be the director, so of course he would not only look at the problem and not be convenient:
"Old Li, using robots to do things is progress, and I also support it, but the country is taking too much steps now.
It turned out that there were more than 20 staff members in this service hall? Now there is only one person, and the others are robots, which reduces twenty jobs; last year, the unmanned driving was launched, and how many taxi drivers were laid off at once?
It is said that in the future, the country will also launch robot police, robot nurses, robot nannies, artificial intelligence judges, artificial intelligence remote diagnosis medical and home medical robots. How many people are unemployed? We are retired and can ignore these things. But our son and grandson have to work, and so many positions are gone, what will they do in the future?
Now, according to the current trend, as long as artificial intelligence reaches the level of practitioners in an industry, jobs in this industry will disappear immediately. According to the current development speed of artificial intelligence, there are still many jobs to disappear in the future!
What should the children do in the future?”
