Wasteland Development Diary.

Chapter 545 The Chairman's Struggle
The two gnarled trees successfully transformed into towering trees, but the demonic star had also burned out completely.

Only a few ashes remained inside the square amber container.

Turing replied, "Chairman, the composition of the demon star is complex, but we can identify five elements: calcium, manganese, nitrogen, barium, and strontium. The purple light it emits is due to these elements releasing light of specific wavelengths when they burn."

"Its physical volume is very small, and it can burn for 43 days before dissipating, which is also because Mr. White King's technology is amazing."

Zhou Yi asked, "Will the disappearance of the demon star affect the Towering Tree?"

"The directed evolution of the Towering Tree is complete. Unless the entire world suffers from a severe energy shortage or long-term malnutrition, it is impossible for the Towering Tree to shrink in size and revert to its ancestral form."

"Currently, the company has supplied a large amount of amber, and the fertilizer supply is sufficient, so there is no such problem."

Turing said, "The two towering trees will then enter a stable growth period."

Zhou Yi breathed a sigh of relief.

That's good.

However, the towering tree returned to its normal growth rate, just like most plants, growing slower and slower.

Zhou Yi now understands.

The Mud Tree World is filled with towering trees that can easily reach thousands of meters in height because of the frequent purple suns and the erratic movement of ominous stars that act as solar dust. It's like continuously injecting the trees with hormones, allowing them to grow to astonishing sizes at an abnormal rate.

Zhou Yi looked at the two towering trees outside Yalong Bay.

They are lush and verdant, like giant coral reefs magnified a thousand times, with the green and red Dead Sea fruits hanging on them being vital strategic resources.

Nige, standing nearby, added, "Chairman, the Thousand Machine Fruits are growing well now; they can be picked and eaten. Only on the tallest trees can they grow the largest and most mature fruits."

Zhou Yi was initially very concerned about this matter.

The Thousand Machine Fruit and the Hundred Transformation Fruit are two kinds of companion fruits. The former can enhance the strength of abilities for a short time, similar to super adrenaline, while the latter can stimulate a person's special abilities for a short time, but it will disappear quickly.

He originally valued the Transformation Fruit more because it could turn ordinary people into enhanced beings in a short period of time.

Studying this fruit might lead to the discovery of some special medicines.

However, after the appearance of the hydrogen flow, it successfully activated Beta through genetic mutation, giving him the ability to telekinesis, which led to the Strong Foundation Project, which is now a complete superior replacement for the Ditto Fruit.

Zhou Yi's current thinking has changed.

We should follow the experience summarized by the Mud Tree Man.

Eating only the Thousand Machine Fruit is enough.

It is also an enhancement for the strengthened individuals.

Zhou Yi asked Nige, "How much fruit can these two towering trees produce each year?"

"Although it is a juvenile, the tree that reaches the sky produces a lot of fruit, far exceeding the yield of the tree that grows in the middle."

Nige pondered for a while: "I'm not from the Tree Department, but I know that even a young, towering tree can support 30 Mud Tree People. Based on our food intake and the consumption of our companion plants... but I can't calculate the exact number, maybe Aqing knows."

Tree spirit Ye Qing took over the conversation: "Chairman, I have recorded the growth of Tree No. 1 over the past month. It produced 3566 green fruits and 417 red fruits in this round. Tree No. 2 is in a similar situation."

"The fruiting cycle is still two months, but because these fruits are of extremely high quality, they are no longer comparable to the original ginkgo fruits."

"The current top-growing tree is estimated to produce 24,000 fruits per year."

"As they continue to grow, this number will increase further."

Zhou Yi asked, "How much do the other six bonsai trees produce annually?"

"The annual yield of the Pan tree is 9000 fruits, and the total annual yield can reach 54,000 fruits."

Ye Qing knew these numbers like the back of her hand.

Zhou Yi summoned Minister of Agriculture Zheng Tao during the Lantern Festival.

"Old Zheng, the current production of Dead Sea fruit is sufficient. I'd like to turn Dead Sea fruit into a fixed-quantity nutritional meal for the employees, in order to support the ongoing Strong Foundation Program."

Zheng Tao thought for a moment: "The company currently has 4152 full-time employees, so giving them one per month should not be a problem."

"Chairman, I propose that we focus our efforts on the children in schools."

"Giving them Dead Sea fruit would be more effective; they will be the future of the company and have greater potential."

Zhou Yi nodded: "That's what I think too."

……

Two days later, an official announcement was displayed on the projection wall of Building No. 1.

On the screen, the girl-like Biting Cat says, "Now for an important announcement. All employees of the Wasteland Development Company, please listen carefully."

"The chairman has added a brand new benefit for everyone."

"Starting today, all full-time employees of the company will receive one Dead Sea Fruit every month as a perk."

"Regarding this Dead Sea Fruit, we hope everyone will consume it to enhance their life strength. Our Foundation Strengthening Program is being implemented gradually. Some employees have already become genetically modified enhancers under the company's training, and they also need the Dead Sea Fruit to strengthen their bodies."

"The company strictly prohibits the sale of Dead Sea fruits intended as employee benefits. Anyone found doing so will be immediately dismissed and never rehired."

"In addition, Mushroom Forest Elementary School will also be equipped with Dead Sea Fruit nutritional meals. Each student will receive one fruit per month, which must be consumed at school to strengthen their bodies and improve their learning."

"That concludes the intermission. Thank you everyone."

The news broke.

The entire Emerald City was in an uproar.

Dead Sea fruit has long been famous, but it has always been a high-end specialty food sold exclusively to the public, with no branches elsewhere. Now, it has become a perk for every employee, making everyone beam with joy and eagerly anticipating payday.

Another excited group is the students' parents.

The fact that Mushroom Forest Elementary School even had Dead Sea Fruit as a supplementary meal made them all smile from ear to ear, and they all looked very proud when talking about their children.

Everyone spontaneously clapped at the screen, celebrating the good news with each other.

But at this moment, Zhou Yi, inside Emerald City, was scratching his head.

The Canadian in the bottle disappeared in a drunken slumber.

New characters are still being incubated and nurtured.

The little man in the bottle is not having an easy time.

Then there's the script.

He finished reading the script in the enhanced controller.

Two scripts.

The first one is a compilation of the scripts for the 200-episode series "The Great Adventure of the Samurai Crab".

This part was all created by Zhou Yi, copied from various popular legends and stories of the old humans, and selected through generations of reading and filtering. The quality is definitely not bad, and after being localized and modified for the wasteland, it becomes a usable script.

With processing in film studios, the tension, special effects, and visual experience on the screen will be enhanced.

It also has a greater advantage in exporting to the outside world.

The second script, however, was a completely original drama called "The Chairman's Struggle".

The story is based on Zhou Yi and depicts the establishment and rise of a wasteland development company.

The main body of the story itself is fine.

The problem is that Zhou Yi in the script has become a one-punch man. He solves any problem with one punch, destroys the Dead Sea Fleet with one punch, flattens a city with one punch, crushes a dragon with one hand, and even has a scene where he fights two opponents, such as the Lord of War and the Black Emperor... He has been promoted to be an all-powerful and awesome battle maniac.

Zhou Yi looked at it with the same expression as an old man on the subway.

"This is too unrealistic...it doesn't need such hype."

Qian Su explained, "Chairman, everyone likes to see this kind of thing. The chairman in the eyes of outsiders is, of course, not the real chairman. But the rumors about you say that this is how you are, that you can solve any problem as long as you take action..."

"another."

Zhou Yi rejected it outright.

Qianli had no choice but to offer a backup plan: "How about this one?"

Zhou Yi glanced at it.

The backup script is called "Our Life".

It uses an episodic format, with each department of the wasteland development company having a main character. These characters live together and talk about their work and life.

It's somewhat similar to a workplace version of Friends.

Zhou Yi nodded immediately: "This is it! This one is good."

Qian Su couldn't help but smile: "I knew you might end up choosing this. You still don't really like being too flashy, but you're already one of the top people in the world."

Zhou Yi shook his head: "No."

"You are absolutely one of the most powerful people in the world!"

"I mean, being too sharp and outspoken—hasn't our company been like that for a long time?"

Zhou Yi said, "When the company was first established, we naturally followed the trend and completed our initial capital accumulation. But now we are creating our own situation. There may be no group in the world more aggressive than us."

"Then why don't you want that notebook?" Qian Su asked, puzzled.

"Because that's not a good way to promote."

Zhou Yi explained, "A company's strength is not demonstrated by stepping on other groups, but by other groups being willing to follow in the company's footsteps. True strength is not about killing opponents, but about subduing and uniting enemies, so that opponents will also show sufficient respect."

Qian Su was taken aback for a moment: "You're right."

The two films were sent to Selangor, and after two months of processing at the film studio, the first 10 episodes of "The Great Adventure of the Samurai Crab," intended for the family, were produced.

Qian Su is broadcast for free every afternoon during mealtimes in various regions, with one episode updated daily, covering more than 300 regions.

All you need is a projection wall to watch it; it's very simple.

In less than a month, "The Great Adventure of Samurai Crab" became a household name, and Samurai Crab became a well-known character.

Another half month passed.

The first season of "Our Life" has also been officially released with 5 episodes, followed by the broadcast of "The Great Adventure of the Samurai Crab".

Two months later.

The company's self-produced large-scale post-apocalyptic idol drama "Club Girl" has been released, starring Xiao Tao, with Xiao Xing and Amian as co-stars. It tells the story of the difficult journey from entering the club to becoming a grass-type idol.

It was also the first time that the high-class entertainment district of Huayi was recreated on the screen, allowing ordinary people who had only heard of it to see the enchanting and cruel landscape of a megacity.

Club Girls only has 4 episodes and is a pilot episode, but due to the high demand and discussion, coupled with the explosive number of views on [Wasteland News], it has been introduced to various regions and cities and has been ordered for a second season.

This winter has become the season for wasteland development companies to release movie guides.
