Subsequently, the public opinion created by the ETO forced Lin Feng to hand over the leadership of the Hong Electronics energy storage project to the United Nations and never interfere in the Hong Electronics energy storage project again.

Lin Feng forgot about it, since even if he wanted to, the United Nations might not agree.

“The United Nations has given permission, and they also want to know if the Macro Electronics energy storage project meets your original expectations.”

As the proposer of the Hong Electronics energy storage plan, only Lin Feng himself knows what the blueprint of the plan looks like, and the United Nations also needs Lin Feng as an acceptance test subject.

"understood."

After boarding his presidential limousine, the motorcade headed toward the nearest Hong Electronics energy storage project.

Sitting in the car, Lin Feng could see a thin line standing on the ground in the distance through the car window.

It didn't take long to reach the destination, where Lin Feng, surrounded by bodyguards, met the person in charge of the project.

After a brief exchange of pleasantries, the project manager led Lin Feng on a tour of one of the tall towers they had already completed.

"This is the first completed high-voltage tower, 250 meters high, constructed primarily of carbon nanomaterials and steel reinforcement, combined with concrete. In the center is a hydrogen-based superconductor that can..."

Lin Feng looked up. When he looked at it from a distance in the car, it was just a thin line. But now, looking up at it up close, it felt like he was looking at the Tower of Babel from mythology.

This high-voltage tower is very simple, giving the impression of an unfinished building. It has no walls and looks like a tall tower made of building blocks, with neat rows of large square holes.

It's not about cutting corners; it's about saving materials and shortening the construction period. As long as a high-voltage tower has height and strength, that's enough. This building doesn't take into account people living in it, so comfort is irrelevant.

"Let's skip the introduction. This thing doesn't require much technical skill. As long as you don't cut corners, there won't be any problems."

Lin Feng waved his hand and asked the project manager about another matter that he was concerned about.

"I need to check on the workers' condition; that's what I'm most concerned about. 007 has his methods, and if 007 acts haphazardly, it could lead to deaths. I need to know if you're following instructions."

"Okay, please follow me."

Led by the project manager, Lin Feng and his bodyguards arrived at a large shed made of steel bars and plastic sheeting, inside which were neatly arranged seats.

This is a simple canteen that can be set up in just one or two days.

Upon entering the large canteen, the project manager explained their schedule to Lin Feng.

“Construction workers work 12 hours a day, with 8 hours for sleep, half an hour for lunch, half an hour for dinner, half an hour for showering, one hour for toilet breaks, and the remaining one and a half hours for walking, entertainment, exercise, etc.”

"Huh? Isn't it 007?" Lin Feng asked.

"It's like 007, working 24 hours a day. Eating and sleeping don't interfere with work. Please look here."

Following the guidance of the project manager, Lin Feng noticed the unusual features of these cafeteria tables.

"This is……"

"That's right. This is the pedal of an old Chinese sewing machine. When workers were eating, their feet were free, so they could move the pedal while eating. The pedal would turn the gears, cut magnetic lines of force to generate electricity, and convert human chemical energy into electrical energy, which would be stored in batteries. The electricity in these batteries would then be stored in ball lightning."

Construction workers can also use their spare time outside of work to generate electricity.

Storage batteries are a good thing; they can store the electrical energy converted from the worker's bioenergy and then channel it into ball lightning.

The same applies to eating, sleeping, and walking.

Even when we sleep, we still need to breathe, right? The exhaled air drives a very light windmill to turn, which generates electricity.

This amount of electricity is indeed small, but its advantage lies in its longevity. After all, the windmill needs to run for eight hours, and this electricity can be directly stored in the lithium battery and eventually transferred to the macro electronics.

There are also shoes. If you design a mechanism inside the shoe, you will definitely lift your foot and step on it when you walk. This process, through mechanical work, causes the magnets inside the shoe to cut the magnetic field lines, which naturally generates electricity.

There's also bathing. But bathing isn't just a simple bath. To get bath water, you need to ride a stationary bike, like the kind you see in gyms. No matter how much you pedal, it won't move; it will only rotate its wheels.

People who want to take a bath must turn the wheel to get bath water, and as the wheel turns, electricity is generated.

"Won't anyone slack off?"

Lin Feng asked somewhat strangely. Although he had been involved, seeing it in person still made him feel a little odd.

"No, as long as we tell them that we test the internal charge content of each battery, and the person whose battery has the lowest charge content will have their salary halved, their enthusiasm for work will not decrease."

"How much is your monthly salary?" Lin Feng asked.

"Usually, it's accumulated over a year, and then all the money is paid at once. Once the worker signs the contract, they have to work for a year. If it's calculated on a monthly basis, it's about $20,000 a month."

Lin Feng nodded. The salary was quite high, and it was a job that didn't require any special skills; anyone could do it.

The practice of paying wages annually was also intentional. When workers suddenly receive such a large sum of money, their first thought is to spend it, which is much more reliable than the US bailout of one or two thousand dollars.

A worker can receive $240,000 in the final year of a year!

Converted to RMB, at an exchange rate of 1:7, that's 168 million RMB!

"Has Wall Street been informed? I don't want them to cause trouble, and I especially don't want all this money to end up in the stock market."

Lin Feng lowered his voice and asked the CIA agent beside him.

"Don't worry, they don't have the courage to go against other countries."

Chapter 18 Those who know, know

Since the start of the Hong Electronics energy storage project, a large number of people have changed industries, becoming construction workers after simple training and joining the massive Hong Electronics energy storage project.

While jobs paying $20,000 a month do exist, they represent a very small percentage globally, especially in impoverished regions like Africa. For these low-skilled jobs, a $20,000 monthly salary is like being able to leapfrog the social ladder and become a millionaire simply by working as a bricklayer on a construction site for a year.

Who wouldn't be tempted? Construction workers at Hong Electronics Engineering suddenly became the most sought-after profession in the world.

This large-scale job relocation has forced other industries to raise wages.

We have to raise the wages, otherwise no one will work in that industry anymore. For example, sanitation workers have low wages and a high probability of developing pneumoconiosis. Since they are also likely to get pneumoconiosis, wouldn't it be better to do a higher-paying job?

Don't think that it's a big problem that sanitation workers have all gone to work as bricklayers. If no one is cleaning the city, the streets will be full of garbage, fallen leaves, and dust. The city's living and sanitation conditions will degenerate to the Middle Ages, and it will be common to step in a pile of dog poop as soon as you step outside.

However, simply raising workers' wages is not enough; capitalists need to make a profit.

Why is Lin Feng's proposed 007 work system so popular worldwide? Do capitalists not know that it will provoke fierce resistance from the working class?

No, they know it perfectly well, but they still do it anyway.

This involves the issue of costs and benefits. The wages paid by capitalists are costs, while the work done by workers is the benefit. Since costs have increased and cannot be reduced, costs can be reduced by increasing benefits.

In other words, it means extending workers' working hours so that they can do more work in a day, thus allowing capitalists to recoup their investment costs.

However, this approach is merely a short-sighted solution, exacerbating the decline of all industries.

Just kidding. Working yourself to the bone 007 is not as profitable as doing manual labor for Hong Electronics' energy storage project. Although it's also 007 there, at least you earn more and you won't die from overwork.

The job includes free room and board, with meals and sleep arranged to ensure a healthy lifestyle. You can earn $24 in just one year of work.

Capitalists eventually compromised, or rather, governments took action because they didn't want to see their core industries decline.

The civilian and commercial use of power generation equipment and the promulgation of a quantitative monetary system for electricity.

Simply put, electricity is directly linked to currency, and you can use electricity to exchange for government currency at banks.

With the civilianization of power generation equipment, construction workers in non-macro electronic energy storage projects can also purchase the power generation tools used in the projects.

Capitalists quickly introduced these things, and employees had time to rest, but they had to generate electricity during their rest time. Some people saw the business opportunity early on, wholesaled batteries, and made a fortune.

Taylor's team gathered at Lin Feng's home to give a detailed report on the impact of the Hong Electronics energy storage project, as well as the project details and problems encountered.

"First, by bringing in a large number of workers into the industry, other industries that were already showing signs of decline were forced to make reforms. Then, the distribution of various industries was rebalanced, directly shattering and rebuilding the existing economic framework. What a crazy move! It's amazing!"

“Mr. Taylor, I used to think that you were just blindly messing around in the field of economics! I never imagined that you were so farsighted and so outstanding! I am extremely ashamed of my previous thoughts!”

The economic experts in Taylor's team were so excited that they shook Lin Feng's hand, looking at him like fans looking at their idol.

"Well, of course, no one understands economics better than me."

Lin Feng coughed lightly. In fact, he hadn't thought that much about it. In order to avoid the embarrassing fact that he was only half-baked, he could only bite the bullet and try to fool these people.

Well, those who know, know; those who don't, I'm too lazy to explain.

“I am no longer responsible for the Hong Electronics energy storage project. You didn’t come here just to tell me about the situation of the Hong Electronics energy storage project, did you? Telling me is meaningless; I have no right to get involved,” Lin Feng asked.

Since Lin Feng handed over the Hong Electronics Energy Storage Project to the United Nations last time, he has lost the right to directly interfere with the project, and even the Wallfacer rights have lost their absolute importance to the Hong Electronics Energy Storage Project.

Logically speaking, Taylor's team would have no reason to approach him unless for other purposes.

"Yes, Mr. Taylor, you once revealed to the United Nations that there are other plans. Is there anything we can do for you?"

Nuclear physicist John Smith explained to Lin Feng the purpose of their visit.

Now, Hong Electronics' energy storage project is on track, and the operation is much easier, or even almost easier.

After all, the Hong Electronics energy storage project is basically just a bunch of high-voltage towers, a bunch of construction workers, and issues like Hong Electronics energy storage.

The most technical problem was the macro-electronic energy storage, which has now been solved. Only the maintenance needs remain, which can be handed over to others.

After learning from the United Nations that Lin Feng had other plans, Taylor's team voluntarily resigned from their original positions in the Hong Electronics energy storage project and went to Lin Feng's side to await his orders.

"The time is not right yet."

"What kind of plan is this? I haven't even thought of one yet! Why are you all rushing me?" Lin Feng thought to himself. The United Nations was putting pressure on him, using this method to urge him to start his wall-viewing work quickly.

"opportunity?"

Taylor's team was taken aback. They had received information from the United Nations and assumed that Lin Feng was about to tell them the plan.

“Yes, the timing. When the time is right, I will give you the orders. What we need now is to wait,” Lin Feng replied earnestly.

As for the timing, it could be the next second, or it could be after I die of old age; I decide the exact time.

This was Lin Feng's plan.

"When exactly? When will the timing be right?" John Smith asked cautiously.

Lin Feng shook his head, looked towards the empty space in the room, and spoke mysteriously.

"We can't say it now, understand? We can't let those guys know."

Taylor's team understood.

Oh, they got it. Sophon was still monitoring them. Maple Taylor wasn't telling them now so that Trisolaris and ETO wouldn't know anything about the plan!

"We apologize, it was our oversight."

"I'm glad you understand."

Knowing that he had achieved his goal, Lin Feng exchanged pleasantries with Taylor's team for a while and then sent them all away.

Then, I put on the V suit that I had recently obtained from the CIA.

I can't work, I'll never work in my life, so the only thing I can do to kill time is play games!
