When I write a bug it becomes the core gameplay.

Chapter 489 Centralization!

The King of Strong Mouth was unmoved: “Oh, I have no idea what you are talking about.

"Can I control something like rising temperatures?"

Li Wenhao became even angrier: "Stop talking nonsense!
“It’s true that you don’t control the temperature, but I made arrangements in advance after the temperature started to rise, but you deliberately delayed time and operated so slowly, and you even deliberately missed the old industrial area!
"If you were operating normally, how could the old industrial area catch fire due to high temperatures?"

The strong-mouthed king still said confidently: "No, why am I slow in operation?
“With so many industrial zones, don’t I have to look for them one by one and operate them one by one?
“Why, when I was the head of state, you were unhappy because I thought you were slow to act, and you said that if you were the head of state, you would definitely give me enough time to act and not interfere with me.

"What about now? You think your words are bullshit, right?

"Don't you think I'm slow?
"What did you say at the time? Operations take time. You're just talking without any pain in your waist. How about you come? If you come, you'll be slower than me!
“Why would I deliberately miss out on the old industrial area?

“This time, four industrial areas were burned down, but I didn’t deliberately target the old industrial areas.

"I just don't have enough time, so I can only prioritize those new industrial areas with high levels and high output. As for the old industrial areas, their output is not high. Is there anything wrong with me putting them at the end of the priority list?"

Li Wenhao's mouth twitched slightly: "Let it go!
"Are you blind or something? Can't you see the inspector is investigating in there?"

The King of Lip-service: "Haha, what does his investigation have to do with me?
“There are only so many that can be saved. Other industrial areas and workers are creating value, but this inspector does not create value, so his rescue priority must be lower.

"Besides, it's not like I didn't save him. I tried to put out the fire, but the temperature rose too quickly and the fire was too big, so I couldn't put it out."

Li Wenhao was completely speechless.

You really just won't admit it, right?

Obviously, Li Wenhao now knows very well what the Mouth King did, and the Mouth King also knows very well that Li Wenhao knows what he did, and Li Wenhao also knows very well that the Mouth King knows very well...

In short, both of them knew it, but the King of Big Mouth refused to admit it.

Anyway, this is a natural disaster, and you have no evidence to say that I did it.

"Okay, you're going to fall out, right? Just wait."

Li Wenhao was also very angry. He didn't plan to continue playing house with the King of Mouth.

Either you die or I die today!

He immediately began searching in the technology tree regarding the system.

If you want to kill the Archon, the game provides two ways.

One is centralization.

The other is trial by public opinion.

Centralization is easy to understand. It means that the head of state further expands his power and weakens the power of the consuls.

When the power of the head of state expands to a certain extent, he can have the power of life and death like the ancient emperors.

If you want to get rid of the consul and replace him with someone else, it will only take a few clicks of the mouse.

Trial by public opinion is a completely different approach.

In this process, the head of state does not centralize power, nor does he weaken the power of the consuls. However, he must constantly enhance the influence of public opinion in the system.

By disclosing more and more information, let public opinion judge the head of state and the consuls.

When the consul's public support drops to a certain level, the head of state can replace him through regular procedures.

However, there are risks in doing so: if public satisfaction with the head of state drops to a certain level, they may overthrow the head of state.

Alternatively, the consuls might also take advantage of public opinion to achieve the so-called "usurpation of the throne."

Although Li Wenhao is not quite sure how to do it yet, the existence of this risk is obvious.

"Oh, if that's the case, don't blame me for being cruel!"

Li Wenhao decisively chose the first method.

In his opinion, the second method obviously has hidden dangers.

What if the consul manipulates public opinion and kills him?

This is a game after all. Who knows how the so-called public opinion system in this game is made? What if there are some loopholes in the AI ​​itself? Wouldn’t that be embarrassing?
It's like shooting oneself in the foot.

As for the first method, it seems much safer.

Centralization is obviously a very bad word in real life, but it is hard to say in this kind of simulation business game.

After all, in other similar games, when there is only one player, doesn't he always play the role of an extremely authoritarian leader?

The worst outcome is that you will be a little tired and have to do all the dirty and tiring work.

So, Li Wenhao decisively lit up this technology tree.

To achieve the ultimate goal, it is also necessary to unlock it step by step. At the beginning, there are only many restrictions on the power of the Archons. For example, if a line or a building built by the Archons does not meet the wishes of the head of state, it must be demolished after the head of state issues an order.

Later on, when the consul wanted to build a certain line, he had to make a request and could only start construction after the head of state agreed.

Otherwise the plan will be dialed back.

In the final stage, the consul became a pure tool with almost no power. From development plans to specific construction plans, everything was decided by the head of state.

As soon as this technological point was clicked, the King of Mouth immediately became angry.

"No, you're using my hard-earned resources against me??"

Obviously, the King of Big Mouth couldn't accept it at all.

The appearance of the inspector before had already made him very unhappy.

In his opinion, it’s no big deal to falsify some data. Doesn’t it affect normal production and construction?

If you pretend you don't know, I can have more fun over here. Isn't this a win-win situation?

You have to find an inspector to disgust me.

I finally got rid of the Inspector, you're almost there, even though you're the head of state, you can't play the game without me, right?
As a result, instead of retreating and maintaining a tacit understanding, the head of state directly broke off relations and wanted to fundamentally restrict his power.

Is this okay?

If he really follows this technology tree, then he will have to get the Führer's approval before he can even build a building. Wouldn't that be like kneeling down and working like a dog for others?

Resist, you must resist!
The first reaction of the King of Big Mouth is to try not to cooperate as much as possible.

The production lines were not arranged properly, the buildings were not built properly, and even the reported data were blatantly adjusted to contain more false data.

He seemed to be totally unwilling to cooperate.

However, the consequences of this incident were far beyond his expectations.

The consuls' public opinion data began to plummet, and the research and development speed of the technology points clicked by the head of state became faster!
Obviously, the speed of technological research and development of a political system does not only depend on the amount of resources, but also on public opinion data.

The public opinion data system is very interesting. It does not always work. For example, once the head of state has completed dictatorship and centralization, the public opinion data will be completely useless.

On the other hand, if the head of state decides to go to the other extreme, then public opinion can directly determine whether the consul and the head of state stay or go.

At this time, the system on the comet was probably in an intermediate state, a bit like the state of mutual checks and balances between the emperor and the prime minister in feudal society.

The emperor had more power, but the prime minister also had a lot of executive power.

At this point, public opinion data plays little role.

But when the consul deliberately fails to cooperate with the head of state's goals and does not seriously engage in construction, public dissatisfaction with him will in turn promote overall scientific and technological research.

This means that the people are also dissatisfied with the consul and therefore support the head of state in imposing more restrictions on him.

"???"

As the research and development of the technology points was completed, the King of Mouth typed a series of question marks on the screen.

Because as soon as this technological point was completed, he saw that a building he had randomly photographed was labeled "demolition" by the Führer.

This building itself was built because he was uncooperative and had no supporting resources nearby. Apart from wasting materials, it basically has no meaning.

The only way to save it is to build a new industrial zone with it as the center, but that will seriously affect the existing planning of the surrounding industrial zones.

The reason why the King of Lip-service did this was actually to demonstrate.

If you want to mess with me, fine, then I will just take random photos of buildings!
Anyway, in the end, neither of us can pass the level, so who is afraid of who?

Unexpectedly, after this technological point was completed, the head of state directly marked it as "demolished", and the building entered the countdown for demolition.

Demolition will result in the loss of some resources, but fortunately, with the support of Comet Technology, most of the resources can be recycled.

In other words, the consuls can indeed build things at will, but the head of state can tear them all down right away.

Moreover, every time the consul builds randomly, there will be a built-in AI to evaluate the rationality of this operation and influence the public opinion data of both parties.

The more public opinion is opposed to the consuls, the greater the power of the head of state, and the faster the measures to restrict the consuls will be introduced.

The more the King of Big Mouth resists, the more the situation on this planet will move forward in the direction that the Führer hopes for.

"Oh, if the tiger doesn't show its might, do you think I'm a sick cat?
"I can't cure you anymore."

At this moment, Li Wenhao just wanted to put his hands on his hips and laugh three times.

Are you still showing off?
So, this consul is a coward. The head of state is the one who holds the highest power. Can't he easily control a mere consul like you?

It won’t be too late to lead the silicon-based little people out of the comet and fly to the sea of ​​stars after I’ve dealt with you!
