Chapter 327: The Convening of the Expo

In 2173, after one year of preparation, the East China Expo will be held soon.

The reason why the name is similar to the World Expo is that the trade department made it out to fight with the World Expo.

Originally, the East Galaxy Company wanted to host the new World Expo, but the International Bureau of Exhibitions, which is specially responsible for the selection of the countries hosting the World Expo, as an international organization, is not as easy to deal with as a commercial organization like E3, and actually put forward all kinds of harsh conditions before agreeing to their request.

It's self-defeating! As the future of mankind, how could the East Galaxy Company succumb to such a small organization as the Bureau of International Exhibitions, and after finding that the other party was so uncooperative, the trade department decided to go it alone after discussion.

Anyway, the current population under the jurisdiction of the East Galaxy Company is more than 500 million, and even the new earth has a population of at least 15 million, which is enough to meet the objective conditions for holding large-scale exhibitions.

The purpose of holding a large-scale exhibition is certainly not just publicity, in fact, it is to make the internal economy of the East Galaxy Company burst out of the second youth, before the launch of a new type of spaceship, taking the method of activating the economy from the outside, the current effect is good, but it is not enough.

After all, the economic promotion of new technologies is certainly not unconditional, for example, the emergence of new types of spaceships has led to the possibility of human beings opening up more planets, bringing more materials, and increasing the distributable materials for everyone, thus generating happiness and wealth.

That's the most basic idea, imagine if, in the process, all the distributable material is added to the rich, and the poor get nothing? So can the goal of economic growth still be achieved? Will the structure of the economy become extremely deformed?

The answer is obvious, and fortunately, after the launch of the new spaceship, a series of changes are still under control, but if you continue to simply climb technology. If you don't find the right way, it is very likely that similar to the above unexpected results will occur, and it will backfire.

So, this time, Cao Chuan did not rush to climb the science and technology tree, but first wanted to test the water through the Expo to see what the fundamental needs of the people became. Maybe you don't have to use the rules to simulate yourself, and you don't need to come up with advanced technology to find a way.

Then through administrative means, some areas of the East Galaxy Company have been developed, with the strong market demand, so as to drive the economic take-off.

He used to do something similar, in the 40s of the 21st century, during the 40-year long journey of the Centaur Alpha advance team, he launched a lot of products that people imagined should have in the future era, which stimulated the economic development, but at that time. The population is still relatively small, it is relatively easy to see clearly, imagine that the volume of the East Galaxy Company is so huge now, distributed all over the galaxy, without special methods, who can see it clearly.

Under the trade department, there is a special user research group, which has registered the personal information of the total population of 500 million people through Nana over the years. and even the consumption records, browsing records and other big data provided by the basic service system. Thus, it is possible to infer the changing trend of mass consumption psychology.

At this time, Cao Chuan listened to their introduction in the office building of the research group, because the source of the expo - what products should be selected, all selected by them. These products have been verified by the Expo and will be accepted by a large number of consumers, so they can be put into large-scale production without any scruples.

"Mr. Advisor, after our group's tidying up. A total of 215 new product directions in 13 categories were screened..."

Cao Chuan saw vivid and realistic three-dimensional projections on the screen, some of which came from the research department, using the leading technology of the East Galaxy Company, and then derived from it through the way of military to civilian. For example, home quantum computers, which are very popular, inter-city entangled networks, and so on.

Although the R&D strength of the research department of the East Galaxy Company is outstanding, in recent years, it has basically taken the lead in the field of cutting-edge scientific research, which has turned the Nobel Prize into a meeting of the researchers of the East Galaxy Company.

In fact, half of the products here come from thousands of companies in other star systems, and even the world's top 500 companies in other countries in which East Galaxy has a stake.

After all, when it comes to the civilian field, the direction for expansion is too big, no matter how powerful the research department is, it is impossible to cover them all, and there is no obvious point in grasping these in hand, and the East Galaxy Company has not done too many restrictions.

"Is that all?" Cao Chuan asked, he looked at a more detailed list, which was somewhat copied from the way of the World Meeting, first divided the places controlled by the East Galaxy Company into several parts, such as the Moon, the Outer Heaven Jupiter, the Pansolar System, the Centaur Al, the New Earth, the Deep Space Road, and the Mother Earth, as the area of the exposition, and then there were pavilions and exhibits displayed to the audience.

The form of the product is not necessarily something that can be touched in the hand, including more abstract cultural customs, historical inheritance, and even larger, such as an aircraft carrier, which is the old tradition of the World Expo.

On the list, Cao Chuan saw many products, and he hadn't even heard of them, so he couldn't help but show an interested expression, and felt that he had to go and see them himself.

The team leader said confidently: "Yes, Mr. Consultant, it is absolutely complete, and there is even a small movie in the Rising Sun Country, which can definitely meet the material and spiritual needs of audiences of all ages and levels in an all-round way, and there will be no omission, so that we can firmly grasp the demands of the people, engage in the economy, and make the economy lively!" ”

Cao Chuan expressed his support: "Hahahaha, that's right, no matter what product, as long as we make the economy up, what does it matter if we let it go a little bit, and it won't be able to tighten it until the GDP explodes to 500 trillion or 1000 trillion in a few years!" ”

Cao Chuan, of course, was aware of the controversy within the user research group, and felt that products such as small movies would ruin their reputation. However, on the surface, the organizer of the booth is the Rising Sun Kingdom, and only the directors behind the holding company have the official employees of the East Galaxy Company, so no one can know that this is a good thing for the East Galaxy Company.

I have to admit that small movies are also one of the basic spiritual demands of human beings, unless the future human body is completely free of hormones, giving up emotions and becoming a purely rational life, otherwise, it will always be a hot seller, will have a good effect on the economy, and at most will evolve with the technological progress of the times.

There are several similar products, Cao Chuan finally gritted his teeth and criticized, the reputation is practice, anyway, there is enough money for the front-line war, and it is nothing to sacrifice a little.

Mr. Consultant's undisciplined support behind the scenes made several employees of the user research team more and more enthusiastic, so they successively found a number of products that made people feel extremely brain-holed, and put them together with a brain, planning to exhibit all of them at the Expo.
