What should a truly great country be like
At the beginning of the conference, Li Xian brought up an important topic. The senior executives and elites of the Shangguo at the scene immediately fell into deep thought. There were administrative elites, business elites, and elites from all levels of society.
This is a summit meeting of the Shang State, and the meeting takes place in the virtual world.
There was a huge crowd of people in front, numbering more than 100,000. All the more influential people in Shang State were invited to attend; if they were unable to attend, they could designate a representative.
However, when faced with Li Xian's question, the scene was silent for a moment.
Li Xian was not in a hurry either. Today's meeting was very crucial. Li Xian had been preparing for this meeting for a long time, even when Shang State started planning Longyuan City.
After a while, a professor from the university spoke first: "Your Majesty, I believe that a truly great country should have three factors: military strength, cultural prosperity, and technological advancement."
Li Xian shook his head: "No! It didn't get to the point. Can you summarize it in one word?"
Summarize a great country in one word? How is that possible! Everyone shook their heads.
However, someone stood up and said, "Your Majesty, I know."
Li Xian smiled and said, "It's Zheng Shuang, please go ahead."
Li Xian was very satisfied with Zheng Shuang. Over the years, Zheng Shuang had made great contributions to the relationship between Shang State and the demon tribe. Although Zheng Shuang rarely appeared in the fairy world of Shang State, no one in the mortal world of Shang State, especially those who had dealings with the demon tribe, did not know Zheng Shuang.
The strength of Shang State is inseparable from such a group of dedicated elites.
Zheng Shuang took a deep breath and said, "A truly great country should be 'glorious'. Only 'glory' can be used to describe the greatness of a country. During my communication with the demons, I was deeply touched by this. The sun illuminates the world with its light, and a country can illuminate the civilized world with the 'glory of light and honor'!"
Li Xian stretched out his hands and clapped; soon the place was filled with a sea of applause.
The applause lasted for a long time before Li Xian slowly spoke: "Ladies and gentlemen, this is what I want to tell you. How should Shangguo develop in the future? Should we participate in wars? No, war is cruel, and Shangguo has experienced too many wars. If possible, I want Shangguo to stay away from wars. So, should we stand idly by? No, obviously not! The chaos in the world has begun, and no country can stay out of it. If Shangguo really stands idly by, the final result will be a closed-door policy and self-isolation. Therefore, we need a method that actively participates without going to war. In other words, a method that transcends The method of war! This method is to spread glory, build Shang into a glorious country, and let the world spread our name. A truly great country will not and will not repeat the old path, especially those old paths that have been proven to be unworkable. A great country should be brave in exploration and practice. The reason why greatness is great is that it actively pioneers and forges ahead, exploring new development directions for us and the entire heaven. I hope that one day in the future, in any corner of the world, our descendants can pat their chests and say to all life: I am from Shang. "
