After the broadcast.
Zhang Xingyang had a little interest in the Earth Federation. He discussed it with his partners for a few days.
He understood some of the characteristics of this organization.
For example, it was a powerful organization with a large army and people.
Every country and region had to hand over 0.5% to 1% of their GDP to the Earth Federation. They could issue currency and were especially rich.
With people and money, such an organization could achieve great things at first glance.
However, Zhang Xingyang and the others' curiosity only lasted for a few days.
Soon, they lost much interest in the Earth Federation. After all, they still had work to do.
The so-called "identity" did not seem to be established in them. They did not immediately regard the desert free city as their root.
Chen Jin also did not expect to achieve success overnight.
"At least the seed has been planted. Over time, they will accept their identity, and they will certainly accept it.
Because they can't say that they are refugees. They won't say that they are the poorest people at the bottom of the social ladder. They won't accept these labels that have been placed on them in the past.
They will say that they are people of the free cities and citizens of the Earth Federation. These two titles are obviously much more superior, and they will be more willing to accept them.
Five years, ten years … After a long time, they will naturally develop an identity.
Due to the characteristics of the free cities, they have no country above them and no governing body. Therefore, they will behave like pure citizens of the Earth Federation and have a more internationalist concept. Their recognition of the Earth Federation will obviously exceed that of any country.
Their vision will be broader, their hearts will be more open, and they will be less restrained.
Even the chairman of the Earth Federation Parliament will be mainly selected from the free cities. This will be more reassuring and convincing. "
So this was Chen Jin's second purpose.
A stabilizer.
The more than 300 desert free cities would become the stabilizer of the Earth Federation.
"One monk carries water to drink, two monks carry water to drink, and three monks have no water to drink.
This is the case with large international organizations. The more members they have, the less they can accomplish.
Just like the United Nations. Apart from engaging in peacekeeping and managing some small matters, they can't manage any of the big ones. In the face of the unilateralism of a superpower, they can't stop it. They can even become a stage for cliques and a place for the strong to perform. It's really a bit lame.
"The Earth Federation seems to be much more advanced, but it's not impossible for it to become a second United Nations."
"The uncertainty of the M nation is too high. When Lanfelord steps down, I don't know what he will choose to come to power. I'm not sure if it will be the Retreating Demon again. There's even a possibility of being expelled from the club. "
"In short, we have to prepare for the worst. Anything is possible."
And even if the worst happened.
The Earth Federation would not be reduced to a second United Nations.
Because there was a free city.
More than 300 desert free cities.
Other countries might not need the Earth Federation, but Japan could not do without it.
"The Earth Federation is the source of identity for the citizens of the free cities and their sense of honor."
"The power of a city is limited. Only from the perspective of the entire planet can we share a lot of achievements and benefit from it."
"If it's just a city, it's just a tool for capitalists to make money. It's just 'wealth' and 'resources' in the eyes of others."
"This position is awkward. It won't give rise to recognition, and after a long time, it will even make people angry and resist."
The Earth Federation was their common spiritual home and the source of their sense of honor.
Therefore, this organization must not be disbanded. All the free cities would do their best to protect it.
Therefore, it played a good role as a "stabilizer."
Therefore, with the financial support of more than 300 cities, coupled with the maintenance of order by countries such as the Z nation, even if a big country withdrew, the overall impact would not be great.
Finally!
There was also a hidden benefit that was huge for Chen Jin.
It even faintly allowed Xing Hai Technologies to stand in an important position on the world's power stage.
After all, the "city management system" of each free city was managed and maintained by Xing Hai Technologies. On the surface, those free cities were "unmanned," but in fact, the same company stood behind each set of city management systems.
Even the same person.
"The uncrowned king. I wonder if that's what it means?"
Chen Jin shook his head and smiled.
In short, this arrangement was over. He could not be said to be the biggest winner, but Xing Hai Technologies had successfully completed the transformation from a company to a powerful "institution." It had risen to another dimension. The possibility of future crises and bankruptcy was almost non-existent.
It could be said that Xing Hai Technologies had become an "immortal company."
…
It was September.
It had been three months since the establishment of the Earth Federation.
All work was on the right track. The number of countries or regions that had applied to join had reached 201.
There were only four countries left that had not joined this big family of alliances.
They were the United Kingdom, France, Russia, and Third Brother.
There was no need to mention the two disgraces of Britain and France. They gritted their teeth and persevered until now. One of them relied on the pride in their hearts that could not be insulted; the other relied on their skin that was as thick as a city wall.
In contrast, the Russians' perseverance seemed to be quite emboldened because they had the widest territory and more than 3,000 nuclear weapons. This was a place that could not be ignored, even though they were relatively poor.
Third Brother, who joined in the fun, not only had not joined the Earth Federation, but he was also clamoring for a veto power. Otherwise, he would not join.
Many netizens were suddenly angry.
"Third Brother, what right do you have to fight for the 'veto power'? Where did your blind confidence come from?"
"With a garbage population of 1.5 billion? And a GDP of more than 300 billion dollars? "
"It's just a beggar-like country. Who knows, the sky might collapse. How dare you ask for status and power?"
The netizens ridiculed and said all kinds of heart-wrenching words.
However, Third Brother still went his own way. He would rather be isolated by the world and fight for the "status" that belonged to them.
There was also Britain, France, and Russia.
The four countries combined, whether it was population, territory, or military strength, were quite considerable and difficult to ignore.
If these four countries did not join the Earth Federation (UED) for a long time, the representation of the Earth Federation would not be so comprehensive, and some work would not be easy to carry out.
After discussing with the higher-ups of the Z country, Lanfelord came up with a solution. He spoke to the British and French countries.
"The UED can give you a veto power, but the premise is that you have to integrate the forces of the entire Europe together and share a veto power with Europe as a whole."
He said to the remaining Russians and Third Brother, "I can also give you a veto power, but you also have to rope in some countries with stronger economic strength to form a 'voting alliance.' Only when the total GDP of this' voting alliance 'reaches 20 trillion dollars will your voting alliance share a veto power."
"In short, a population of more than 300 million and a GDP of 20 trillion dollars. If you do not meet these two standards, the veto power will not be given to you."
This …
The four countries began to think.
