The Ministry of Energy was established, and a smart machinery monitoring agency was set up for this new department, as well as a full set of think tank management systems, and then some ministers, deputy ministers and other personnel were filled in for the department to manage in real time.

Finally, like the chief engineer and chief scientist positions set up by the engineering department and the scientific research department, a position of director of the energy think tank will be set up to facilitate Lu Yuan's direct control of the entire energy department.

Lu Yuan already has a place to choose the head of the energy think tank, and he only needs to choose from the part of the company that can be unconditionally loyal to him.

After some discussion with Professor Eureka, Lu Yuan decided to add 10 energy management divisions to meet the energy needs of the company's development in all aspects in the next year or two.

Of course, these 10 energy management divisions are naturally also built underground.

Once the development plan is finalized, implementation begins.

The entire Ayr Star is getting extremely busy.

First of all, in the many zoning areas originally established on various continents, the company's standardized construction formwork began to go deep underground, and new zoning was developed one after another in thousands of meters underground.

In less than a year, 40 underground resource exploitation zones, 20 underground industrial casting zones, and 10 underground energy management zones were completed and delivered.

After nearly half a month or so, these districts were all put into use just like above-ground zones.

A large amount of underground minerals are mined by the company's large machinery and equipment, and then calculated by the gray Gu intelligent machines to the factory for refining and processing, and finally cast into extremely strong alloys.

Those alloys were sent to the smart machinery manufacturing plant to produce a large number of gray Gu smart machines, and they were also put into various construction projects and quickly used.

At the same time, the application of antimatter energy technology in the underground energy zoning has also injected fresh blood into the busy life of the entire planet.

Far more than the energy use of the old era, the development of various industries within the company has been thoroughly upgraded, and all departments have enjoyed the benefits of the times brought by this technological upgrade.

The engineering department has benefited the most, whether it is the expansion of underground zoning or the application of antimatter energy technology, which has greatly improved the engineering capabilities of the entire department.

Since the engineering department is now in control of the entire planet's construction, it is only natural that they have become the most powerful and powerful department in the company, above all others.

This naturally caused some dissatisfaction from other departments, but because the engineering department is now the executor of many plans of the company and the main force of civilization development, no matter how much dissatisfaction other departments have, they can only bear it silently.

This is the case with an active organic life, as long as it is comfortable, even if it enjoys the many benefits of vested interests, after a long time, it will inevitably regenerate his thoughts.

It was only a little more than a year since the end of the company's unification of the planetary war, and many of the senior departments of the Gray Gu Company had a vague phenomenon of slackness.

If the company occupies the resources of the entire planet, the material conditions provided by these resources will not only enable the 20 billion low-level employees to completely get rid of poverty, but also allow many high-level personnel to live a good life that they could not have imagined in the past.

When the company was just an ordinary tech company, all these executives could get was a good life with high salaries and corporate profits, and there were many richer and more powerful people in the world than they did.

When the company started a war, unified the entire planet, and occupied the assets of all the former superpowers, these corporate executives were like small merchants who were usually quiet and self-serving, eating hot pot and riding the train, and suddenly they were suddenly added to the yellow robe.

They used to only control the operation of the company's departments, but suddenly found that the benefits they could touch in their hands were suddenly so big that they couldn't believe it.

The power in their hands can always be related to the development and progress of the company, but also to the thoughts, lives, morals and ways of existence of hundreds of millions, billions or even tens of billions of people!

At that moment, it was as if they had seen Pandora's box open in front of them, they were not immediately occupied by various desires and inner thoughts, they still kept their sanity and sobriety as much as possible.

Because they know that behind them, beside the huge interests that they have at their fingertips, there is always a gaze on them, so that they dare not act rashly.

But time passed, day after day, month after month.

While they are fulfilling their responsibilities to contribute to the development and construction of the company, they are also constantly impacted by reality, and their hearts are gradually attracted by the huge but accessible benefits.

Over time, people's hearts will change.

Just like the leaders of the superpowers of yesteryear.

So some people began to be restless and self-conscious.

The demon begins.

First of all, in the southern continent, the zoning executive of the residential zoning of the two cities, because of the small problems of energy distribution planning in the construction of the project, caused conflicts.

Subsequently, as if it were some kind of pre-arranged plan, the business branch in charge of the two divisions intervened to mediate, and the engineering department, which was supposed to solve this small conflict according to the division of powers, was left aside.

Subsequently, a deputy director of the engineering department reported the problem to the main department of the business department, but it was not properly resolved.

Since this little incident, the business department and the engineering department seem to have a gap between them, and there are constantly some harmless ones, although they do not affect any engineering construction, but they make the personnel of the two departments respond to each other's small friction.

Now there is no internal turmoil in the Gray Gu Company, and there is no strong enemy outside.

Due to some confidential reasons, many high-level executives are not aware of the fact that the company has been hostile to the angel civilization, so in the eyes of some people, the company has a bright future, and the company's "benefit cake" is big enough, and it should be time to share the cake.

That's right, share the cake!

In many cases, the progress of a collective requires the progress of thought and morality.

However, even if the fundamental interests of a collective that progress for the sake of interests are defined as the progress of civilization, not everyone will accept this kind of thinking, and will be arbitrarily influenced by this kind of thinking instilled by others.

After all, this is a world of the jungle, and the existence of interests always affects the vagaries of people's hearts.

No matter how much the idea of equality is propagated, this cruel reality cannot be reversed.

Those who are overwhelmed by the cold in high places often have further ambitions until there is no way to advance.

In the collective of the Gray Gu Company, the low-level employees will undoubtedly be divided into the ninth class.

Although the company's policy has repeatedly stated that there is no difference between the bottom employees and the company's top management, and the company will absolutely treat every employee fairly and justly, without discrimination, this kind of declaration is tantamount to waste paper in the eyes of some.

Joke, how much power do the low-level employees have in their hands, and who gives them the qualifications to compare with the ministers, deputy ministers and even big ministers who hold a lot of power?

What if you are enjoying the same material life? What if it's in the same system of the same collective?

No matter what, it can't be changed, and those who hold power are natural gas farms that are proud of those below.

Those in power at the top will never be truly fooled by what they preach.

The low-level employees are the ninth-class, so the key members of each department from them up are naturally the eighth-class, seventh-class, and sixth-class...... Ascend by layer.

Each person will involuntarily form a group self-consciousness, and then they will form a small group with each other, representing a share of the interests of their small group.

These small groups are chaotic and intertwined by the differences that exist between the constituent individuals, but they are always subject to the will of the higher group, which comes from the obedience imposed by the power of the higher on the lower ones.

Not surprisingly, in the minds of these people, the first level of existence in this fair and just collective is undoubtedly the CEO of the company.

Of course, this is limited by the unique system of the Gray Gu Company, so the first-class will be the CEO, and if the system is changed, they don't care if the first-class person is called the CEO.

They only know that the highest source of power in the company today comes from the CEO delegating the functions and powers of various departments, and the power to distribute the company's interests is also in the hands of the CEO.

If the pie is cut, then everyone under the CEO, except for the bottom employees in the ninth rank, will have the opportunity to reap a considerable benefit.

What are the benefits?

It is also the qualification to become a trendsetter of the times, perhaps the qualification to lead the times, or the qualification to control the life and death of others, and to kill and take away at will......

Anyway, it's varied, as long as it's good for them.

Previously, the company's various so-called fair and just policies, as well as development and plans, were said to bring civilization to progress, develop space engineering, and embrace the new era......

It's so high-sounding, in fact, to put it bluntly, isn't it just for show?

Isn't the purpose of the show to make the cake in your hand bigger and bigger?

After all, profit comes first.

When the cake is bigger, how can there be any reason not to serve it and share it for everyone to eat?

Even if the cake is not taken out and divided, at least one intention must be given, and the person who draws a large cake and feeds it first to those who are waiting to share the cake.

Otherwise, what's the point of making a cake?

In their opinion, since a cake is made, it will be divided sooner or later, and it is only a matter of time before it is not divided now, and it will be scored later.

It's just that Lu Yuan, as the CEO, has always held the distribution power in his hands, and he has no intention of taking out the cake and distributing it to others.

Does this sound like a word? Outrageous.

After all, the wisdom of most mortals is limited, and even if they are instilled with advanced ideas and moral concepts, they will eventually have all kinds of dark thoughts in their hearts for the sake of short-term interests.

The world that man knows is the world that can be known, not the world itself.

In the past, in order to develop, the company would directly meet the interests of their inner desires, but after a long time, they were too fed to gradually no longer be limited to the present.

Their desires are further elongated by the passage of time.

So they looked up at the starry sky, and instead of endless stars, they saw a secluded wellhead, and a little starlight beyond it.

They thought that was all they could get, so they were impatient to fight at the bottom of the well......
