Galaxy Domination Guide

"Although there isn't much of a lead on eradicating the United Heart Society and their Brain Worms yet, the society has already exposed themselves. Those worms are nothing more than minor irritants.

Once we've destroyed their division in country C, they won't be able to keep up with reproduction and will hesitate to reach out again, greatly reducing their influence over the Star Alliance's plans and country C,"

Bai Zhongqi had a clear understanding of the situation. The Brain Worms were not a formidable enemy. However, due to the advantage of their parasitic nature, it was difficult to completely eradicate them without understanding their intelligence fully. Despite this, Bai Zhongqi wasn't worried. With time, the issue was certain to be resolved.

His most pressing concern remained the Star Alliance, and everything was progressing steadily and orderly.

If there was anything unexpected, it would be Nan Ma's transformation.

Having not seen him for many days, Bai Zhongqi was surprised when he saw Nan Ma again. The man had completely changed his appearance. He was dressed in a fine suit clearly purchased from Earth, even sporting a wig. The Star Warrior master had disguised himself as a businessman and carried all sorts of materials, ready to meet with the Imperial Chancellor.

Bai Zhongqi was already accustomed to being startled by Nan Ma. Looking at the business plan before him, he still couldn't believe it and asked, incredulously, "You're going to start a business?"

Nan Ma attempted to look serious, but it came off as quite the opposite. With a firm nod, he said, "Indeed, Earth is brimming with business opportunities, an excellent chance to stretch our limbs. These past few days, I've been studying various aspects of social networking and Earth's information technologies.

I plan to leverage our Iridian Star advantage, integrating it into a breakthrough product that will serve our future Star Alliance citizens."

Bai Zhongqi was still in disbelief, "You're getting into social media platforms?"

"Yes," said Nan Ma. He managed to keep a straight face for a few seconds before cracking a playful smile, "I've played with a fair share of apps these days. They all seem pretty similar. A few are somewhat innovative, but most are shoddy. Take something like live-stream platforms, for example. They're lackluster.

They might seem interesting at first, but they soon fall short. So, I thought, why not use our Iridium Star technical strengths to enhance Earthlings' user experience?"

Bai Zhongqi, with a sense of exasperation, asked, "Do you understand technology?"

Nan Ma chuckled, "Not at all."

"Do you understand management?"Nôv(el)B\\jnn

"Not that either."

"Do you have money?"

"I don't, but you, Your Excellency, have it all."

Bai Zhongqi couldn't help but want to facepalm. "So, is it you starting the company or me? Why can't you just focus on researching Star Energy or something, instead of getting into all this?"

This guy answered seriously, "There might be millions of paths to pursuing the universal truth, and perhaps the one I am taking is also a path leading to it."

Bai Zhongqi was not someone easily deceived by philosophical reasoning, but after calming down and thinking it over, he felt there was some merit to Nan Ma's proposal.

He briefly reviewed Nan Ma's project proposal. Although the man seemed unreliable, his plan was actually feasible. The essence of Nan Ma's proposal wasn't about starting an Internet technology company; it was essentially about creating a self-media content platform. Nan Ma had a very clear understanding, so his plan was divided into two steps.

The first step was to use the existing hardware of Earth users, enhanced by Iridium Star Technology, to build a social media service platform. This platform would include a variety of user-generated content such as videos, sketches, and live streams, effectively integrating the existing platforms to form a comprehensive and multi-dimensional content delivery service.

Users on this platform could enjoy more comprehensive and interesting entertainment content than ever before. Moreover, Nan Ma intended to turn some content into variety shows through specific measures, enhancing its entertainment value.

For instance, Nan Ma proposed to gather a group of influential and talented internet celebrities to participate in company-planned variety shows and to use the company's technological resources to explore further IP development.

The essence of this concept is that everyone is a provider of creativity, entertaining the masses. On one hand, each user provides and receives creative content.

The platform would create products at an astonishing speed, and the surge of cultural creations would be just as meaningful for a civilization as the advent of a revolutionary piece of scientific technology. Only upon the breeding ground of diverse cultures and creativity can more great things emerge.

At this stage, Iridium Star Technology would mainly offer software platform optimization, robust data storage, and transmission capabilities, without involving hardware. Thus, users could still use their existing smartphones and PCs. Simply put, Iridium Star provided a "soft product"/"virtual product" based on superior dynamic programming languages and other integrated technologies.

The second step, after the establishment of the Star Alliance, would bring about a massive innovation in the company's operations as a large number of smart devices equipped with Iridium Star Technology entered Country C and other nations. Users would gain more powerful creative tools.

In that era, a work possibly even more stunning than "Avatar" could be the creation of a few young people during their holidays; a single artist might be able to complete an epic-length animation on their own; people's communication could become more dimensional and comprehensive, heralding the arrival of a holographic society.

After reading all this, Bai Zhongqi couldn't help but view Nan Ma with newfound respect. This seemingly frivolous and unserious Star Warrior seemed to understand better than anyone else at Iridium Star the significance of the individual to civilization.

Culture and civilization develop through constant expression and dissemination, and the rapid advancement of Earth's civilization in the 20th century was inseparable from the facilitated spread of technology. Nan Ma's plan was essentially about accelerating this process and allowing people to express themselves better.

If combined with the Earth Civilization Enlightenment Project proposed by Bai Zhongqi, after infusing a large amount of Iridium Star Technology culture, it was not hard to imagine the kind of civilizational surge that Earth would experience in those times!

The strength of a civilization was not measured solely by the speed multiples at which its spacecraft could fly or by how much energy and matter it could harness to create trillions-strong armies. It also depended on how vast the civilization was.

The basic principle of quantitative change leading to qualitative change in universal laws tells us that within a large-scale civilization, more dazzling and high-end accomplishments are always brewing.

Naturally, it was impossible for Nan Ma alone to accomplish such a feat through some company, but as long as Iridium Star continued to support the endeavor, positive results were bound to emerge.

"Hmm, if Iridium Star officially provides the technology, funding, and manpower, don't expect it to count as your own industry. I can appoint you as the founder and CEO of this company, and you can have some initial shares. Are you satisfied with that?"

Nan Ma's smile stretched to his ears as he said, "This is better than what I had in mind. So, Your Majesty, I need to recruit a group of people from Country C who understand the market and the users better. Is it possible to obtain such a group in the first batch of labor dispatches?"

Bai Zhongqi thought for a moment. "I'll give you 10 slots to start with. We'll try it out first. I'll send our talent and artificial intelligence to assist you technically, and you can start on it right now. I hope to see the results as soon as possible."
