"Okay, since everyone has finished speaking, let's finally invite Captain Lin to speak."

Lin Zaishan reminded: "Director Wang, you haven't spoken yet." ”

Principal Wang laughed at himself: "I almost forgot about myself." My point of view is very simple: that is, to convince people with virtue. Whether it is the captives of the nine-headed bird or those ordinary people, we don't need to kill them with knives and guns, as long as we do more ideological work on them. ”

Zhao Weiguo said: "Xiao Wang, some people are extremely evil, and some people are born scum, these people can't kill them!" ”

"I preach not killing, not purely because of soft-heartedness or fear of triggering retaliation from others, but after comprehensive consideration, I feel that the positive effect of not killing is far more than killing, and it is the most beneficial option for our dreadnought team."

"Director Wang, can you tell us about the positive effects of not killing?"

Principal Wang had already sorted out his thoughts in advance, and he said eloquently: "There are three main benefits of killing: first, our hatred psychology is temporarily vented, which helps to restore the psychological balance of the group; Second, it forms a kind of deterrent to the bad guys in the short term, making them afraid of us; Thirdly, it has temporarily and markedly weakened the enemy's strength and some unstable factors in the outer city. ”

Everyone nodded.

"But killing also has many disadvantages: first, killing is not the best policy, we choose to kill this time, it will have a demonstration effect on all subsequent choices, and everyone will kill according to inertia instinct in the future. In the long run, not to mention whether there will be enough bad people for us to kill in the last days, how long will it take for the resulting decline in the survivor population alone to recover? ”

Principal Wang continued: "Secondly, killing people does not improve our life realm, the so-called killing to stop killing, killing to justify the Tao is all nonsense, just like the pariah theory preached by the bat of the nine-headed bird, which is a kind of glorification of the violence and incompetence of people without virtue. Even if you kill someone on the battlefield, but on the battlefield, you have to kill the other party when the other party has lost the threat, what a moral cost you have to pay! If we Dreadnoughts always use killing as a means of dealing with the enemy or even civilians, then what is the difference between us and the Hydra? How can we claim to be the righteous party so that we can summarily execute others? If we do too much of this kind of thing, what reputation will we have? What would the survivors outside the new provincial city who were not familiar with us think of us if they heard that we had killed two or three hundred unarmed people in a row? Do you think they'll welcome us with a pot of pulp and a mecca? ”

"Third, if we choose to kill, it will inevitably inspire the Hydra and other forces to be more united from the opposite side, and their determination to resist us will be more unshakable, and the special committee will also intensify its vigilance and suspicion of us. What's in it for the development and growth of our Dreadnought team? ”

Principal Wang concluded: "This is the advantage and disadvantage of killing. As for not killing, let me first analyze the disadvantages: First, doing so may make some people within us feel dissatisfied and uneasy, and even if we do not handle it well, it may lead to disagreements, suspicions, and contradictions. Second, in a sense, choosing not to kill will give the bad guys a hint that we are very weak, and whoever abuses our dreadnoughts will not suffer negative consequences, or even be punished at all, and at worst they will be spared. It's easy to motivate more bad guys to turn against us. Third, if you don't kill them, whether you raise them or let them go, it will be a problem with a lot of trouble in the future. The above are the main disadvantages of not killing. ”

Principal Wang further analyzed: "Although there are many disadvantages to not killing, it is completely acceptable or even negligible compared to the benefits. First of all, choosing not to kill maintains our moral superiority and the basic norm of respect for life in a civilized society, which is a very important cornerstone for restraining the psychological distortion and moral degradation caused by the end times. ”

Lin Zaishan nodded frequently when he heard this.

President Wang continued: "Secondly, choosing not to kill does not mean that we have done nothing about these people, and on the premise of saving their lives, we can extract useful information, knowledge, and skills from their mouths, and we can force and motivate them to carry out labor production, create wealth, improve the living facilities in the outer city, and improve our living standards. Use their examples to influence those who do not understand us and who are hostile to us; They can even be forced to sacrifice for a nobler cause when necessary. In any case, the value of the living is always higher than that of the dead, right? We are all cultured and thoughtful people, is it more difficult for us to accept to let someone live worthily than to let him die without dignity? ”

"Third, choosing not to kill is also a need for us humans to survive as a species. In order for human beings to survive and develop in the cruel last days, a basic premise is that we must have a large enough population. Without a sufficiently large population base, it will be impossible to produce a diversified and complex social division of labor, and it will be impossible to realize a highly developed civilized society. ”

Lin Zaishan interjected: "Listening to Director Wang's words, I would like to kindly remind everyone: the survivors of the southwestern provinces, except for Dian City in the south, have basically gathered in the new provincial capital. In other words, there are only about 1,000 people left in the hundreds of millions of people before the end of the world. ”

Principal Wang continued Lin Zaishan's words and said, "Captain Lin is right to the point! We have more than 100 million people left, and we have to kill another two or three hundred, what kind of concept will that be? When we mention the butcher's knife, don't we think that there are fewer and fewer people around us, and the streets are getting more and more deserted? Didn't you think that in the current situation of sparse population and serious imbalance in the sex ratio, we are basically doomed to extinction? When human beings are about to become extinct, we are still thinking about happiness and revenge, and the dragon is proud of the world, don't we feel very superficial, naïve and brainless? ”

Principal Wang ran out of the room again and again, and everyone was eagerly discussing, even Zhiyangyang, who was still playing games just now, put down his mobile phone and listened attentively.

Sergeant Sun reminded with a loudspeaker: "Please be quiet, Captain Lin will speak on this matter!" ”

Everyone raised their heads and looked at Lin Zaishan, and almost everyone understood that Lin's speech meant that the final tone of this controversial topic was set.

Lin Zaishan got up and said: "Everyone's speeches and discussions were very enthusiastic, and they came up with a lot of insightful opinions, which inspired me a lot. To a large extent, my following statement draws on your thinking. ”

Lin Zaishan raised his voice and said: "I think that our Dreadnought team should always ask ourselves a few questions when dealing with various affairs: First, what is our fundamental purpose and mission? Second, what can best be done to preserve and rebuild human civilization? Third, in such a harsh post-apocalyptic environment, how can we achieve the optimal use of resources and the maximization of overall benefits? I might as well call these three questions the 'Three Questions of Survival in the Last Days.'" These three questions must be considered from time to time by every one of us who is surviving in the last days, especially those who hope that mankind will get out of the last days as soon as possible. ”

Everyone nodded and praised, and Principal Wang was even more kind, and immediately took out his mobile phone to write down the "Three Questions for Survival in the Last Days" to Master Lin in the memo.

Lin Zaishan continued: "If everyone agrees with the 'three questions of survival in the last days', then there is a reference standard for how to deal with personnel. First of all, the first question: our fundamental purpose and mission is to search and rescue, unite and lead the survivors to rebuild civilization and get out of the last days. Simply killing these survivors is clearly contrary to the purpose and mission, and we must treat them as objects that can be united, and at least give them a chance to fight for them. ”

"The second question: what can best be done to preserve and rebuild human civilization? Just now, President Wang has raised a very basic issue, that is, the population issue. For the sake of the continuation of the human population, we can no longer kill each other. Of course, some people are already bad to the core, and letting these people live freely will be a major threat to the lives of other good people, so we must take appropriate measures to get rid of these black sheep when necessary. ”

"As for the third question: how can we achieve the optimal use of resources and the maximization of overall benefits? I think Coach Wang, Vice Captain Sun and others have given very good advice just now, to put it bluntly, is to let as many people live as possible, and then give full play to their value. ”

Lin Zaishan looked around at the attendees and concluded, "The above is my basic position on dealing with these people. ”

President Wang said loudly: "Several of our important representatives have finished speaking, and we will adjourn the meeting for 10 minutes, so that everyone can use this time to communicate and discuss freely." And use your mobile phone to tell your own views to the 'Lin Fuzi' APP for recording and statistical processing. If you don't have a mobile phone, you can borrow it from someone else. We resumed on time in 10 minutes! ”

Lin Zaishan, President Wang, and Sergeant Sun used the recess to meet together to exchange views.

"It seems that the basic opinions of the three of us are unanimous." Lin Zaishan said, "Sergeant Sun, I didn't want you to reveal your specific tactical thoughts just now because I didn't want you to reveal your specific tactical thoughts, I hope you can understand." ”

"You wicked!" Sergeant Sun smiled and said, "Tell me what you have a plan?" ”

"It's not a one-size-fits-all scheme, it's a basket plan. Time is limited, so I'm keeping it a secret for now. Lin Zaishan turned to Principal Wang again: "Do you think that this group of people can be influenced and used by us through ideological and moral work?" ”

"Sincerely, the golden stone is open! As long as the human heart is fleshy and intellectually normal, I am sure to convince them with this incorruptible tongue. Principal Wang replied confidently.

"Okay, then I'll know what to expect."

At this time, Qin Huanchang took Zhiyangyang and Zhang Sanheng to find Lin Zaishan to ask for specific handling opinions.

"Captain Lin, I originally advocated severe punishment, but after listening to the speeches of several of you just now, I hesitated a little. From my heart, I absolutely want to put those thugs to death and punish those villains in the most brutal way possible, but reason tells me that your claims are more reasonable. How do I choose? ”

Lin Zaishan said: "The purpose of holding this meeting is to gather public opinion. You just have to do what you understand and don't always take my opinion into account. ”

"But what if we make the wrong choice?"

"No position is infallible on the ground first. Right and wrong are not purely logical or nominal differences, but require a long history, a chain of cause and effect as reference coordinates, and a large set of complex social systems to support - there will be a difference between right and wrong. ”

"Captain Lin, what you said is too mysterious, I still don't know."

Seeing this, Zhang Sanheng pulled Qin Huanchang aside and whispered: "My sister, you don't know, I'll tell you how to do it." ”

"How? If you're not confident enough in your judgment, that in itself is a sign that your judgment isn't perfect – in which case, you just have to trust the boss. The boss is a god descended from heaven, and it is not wrong in terms of right and wrong. ”

"What a god descended from earth! You, a sycophant who only knows how to speculate on your intentions, do you know that you will kill Captain Lin if you continue like this? ”

"I don't care so much, I'll just recognize one thing: the boss is always right!"

"I'm too lazy to pay attention to you!"

Soon the congregation resumed. Principal Wang said loudly: "Everyone has already asked Lin Fuzi to record their opinions. Next, I would like to invite Lin Fuzi to report on the summary statistical results. ”

Lin Fuzi broadcast the report in a synthetic voice: "25 people advocated the execution of the most heinous prisoners, accounting for 28.4%; 25 (28.4%) advocated treating prisoners well; 14 (15.9%) advocated the killing of all captives; There were 12 advocates of maiming the captives and incapacitating them, one of whom advocated castration. ”

The crowd burst into laughter when they heard the last result.

Zhao Weiguo said funny: "This opinion is good, why didn't you say it earlier?" ”

"If I had said it earlier, if everyone chose this one, wouldn't we have become a forbidden palace compound?" Ma Chujie said.

Lin Fuzi went on to broadcast another statistical result: "For the other group of personnel, there were 36 people who advocated moderate treatment among the participants, accounting for 40.9%; 22 people, accounting for 25%, advocated the use of harsh punishment but did not harm their lives; 15 advocated deportation or left to fend for themselves, accounting for 17.0%; 10 (11.4%) advocated the execution of some of them; Five of these people were in favour of the execution of the remainder. The statistical results are reported. ”

Principal Wang said: "The statistical results have come out, please ask Captain Lin to make the final decision." I would like to state once again that Captain Lin will make a decision with the greatest reference to the statistical results, that is, everyone's opinions; However, it is also possible for him to make other decisions based on his own judgment – if this is the case, it is important to be organized and disciplined. Captain Lin is the supreme leader of our Dreadnought team, and his official opinion is the official opinion of our Dreadnought team. Do you understand? ”

"Got it!"

Lin Zaishan got up again and said solemnly: "Based on the previous discussion and speeches and the current statistical results, I have made the following decision on the issue of personnel handling: First, for the captives of the nine-headed bird, we will openly execute the golden eagle and kestrel who committed the most heinous crimes, and carry out ideological and moral education and labor reform for the rest of the captives. Second, for the other members of the team and civilians who threw themselves at the Hydra during the incident in the outer city, we adopted a gentle handling strategy, using a series of measures to distinguish and divide them: those who performed better, we gave them more welfare protection and treated them with a more friendly attitude; Otherwise, they are denied welfare protection, alienated and expelled from them; Those who behave badly can directly take coercive measures or even shoot them to death. In addition, I would like to emphasize a specific principle: these are the last days, the situation of survival is difficult, and we absolutely cannot tolerate anyone doing things that harm others and the collective, oppress the good, and still get away with it, nor allow anyone to sit back and enjoy what they have achieved without any pretext! ”

The crowd applauded in unison!

"Well, that's it for today's conference. Next, please ask the person in charge of each post to stay and listen to Captain Lin's specific work tasks. ”
