Ch 31: Emotion Value Surge!

Of course,

establishing an organization isn’t something that can be accomplished with mere shouting.

Cao Cheng, as the founder, is without equal!

Task assignments began.

They assigned several well-known and older individuals to directly approach the street office and formally submit the matter.

Publicly, “Jiangbei Citizens” aims to promote neighborly harmony.

If a family has a dispute or a husband hits his wife, the Aunties of Jiangbei Citizens will go to mediate and counsel.

If a family has a small problem, the Aunties will also help.

Environmental sanitation also requires management.

It’s considered assistance to the street office.

This is all surface-level,

while privately, everyone should pay attention to petty theft, or even suspicious renters. Once anything suspicious is discovered, whether it’s crime, drug use, gambling, or spies, it must be reported to the street office.

In a nutshell,

“Let the bad guys drown in the vast ocean of the people, restoring a just and peaceful Jiangbei, and even Sanjiang City!”

Clap clap.

The scene was lively.

The number of Aunties increased, exceeding forty.

Cao Cheng stood in the middle and raised his hand to quiet everyone.

“Additionally,”

Two words, and everyone fell silent.

Cao Cheng said in a low voice: “Additionally, we need to leverage everyone’s relationships, especially those in surrounding communities, residential areas, and streets. Everyone should contact their familiar best friends and dance partners, and have them join, expanding our Jiangbei Citizens, and ensuring more people participate.”

“We need to establish a linkage mechanism, enabling rapid response and ultimately efficient handling of various incidents.”

The crowd nodded in agreement.

Several thoughtful Aunties were taking notes of Cao Cheng’s words.

What a great speech!

“Does anyone have any questions or anything they want to ask? Raise your hand.”

“I do.” An Eldest Sister raised her hand.

The Eldest Sister wasn’t very old, about forty, and looked like a housewife; Cao Cheng didn’t know her.

Cao Cheng smiled: “Sister, please go ahead.”

The Eldest Sister was excited, very satisfied with Cao Cheng’s attitude, and stood up: “I have a question. What if the Aunties and Sisters from other communities don’t want to participate?”

“Yes, yes, if we try to mobilize them, not everyone will be willing, right? There’s no money involved, I’m afraid some people won’t be motivated enough.”

The topic was opened.

Many questions arose.

The most important issue is actually motivation.

Yesterday’s incident occurred in the Cotton Mill community; everyone felt it personally, so their motivation is higher.

But it’s hard to say about other places.

Perhaps the surrounding areas are okay, but the Eldest Sisters and Aunties further away might not have the same enthusiasm.

“That’s an excellent question.”

After everyone sat down, Cao Cheng nodded and smiled: “Don’t worry, everyone, I’ve already considered this. Give me two days, and everything will fall into place.”

…

The matter was thus decided.

First, they needed to report to the street office and bring in the street office’s Eldest Sister.

The organizational structure also needs to be established.

Cao Cheng didn’t plan on being the leader; he didn’t have the time, but he needed everyone to know that Jiangbei Citizens was his creation; this is related to the Emotion Value.

Immediately,

Cao Cheng went to the local news media and reporters to publicize last night’s events.

He also copied the video from the community.

He spent over twenty thousand to buy a laptop and did some simple editing, focusing on the Aunties beating up the thugs, and the thugs being taken away by the police.

He also went to Chief Li and reported the matter, securing a promise of a banner and a bonus.

The organization had just been established, and many channels were not yet open.

Once the channels are open, they won’t need to worry about this small amount of money; various units will allocate funds.

As long as the organization is positive, upward-trending, official, and famous…

Then, not to mention the various Directors of the street office, even the city, and even the provincial level, will pay attention.

Starting is difficult.

But it didn’t deter Cao Cheng.

With a little help from public opinion, many things become easier.

This isn’t yet the era of the true internet boom; people haven’t seen real public opinion…

Cao Cheng prepared to launch a dimensional strike.

In this era, Brain Gold is still popular.

Therefore,

Young Master Cao must let everyone see what “shock” means.

Soon, a series of headlines appeared on various large forums and online forums.

《Shock! Not even Old Ladies were spared, thugs once again break the lower limit of morality! 》

《Shock! Why are Aunties so strong? Quickly check if you have such an Auntie at home! 》

《Shock! How ten strong and healthy thugs were defeated by housewives! 》

《Shock! Jiangbei Aunties, far ahead! 》

《Shock… 》

…

Two days!

Two days means two days.

It’s hard to say outside of Sanjiang, but within Sanjiang City, especially the Jiangbei district, everyone knew about the Aunties fighting the thugs.

Who says retirement prevents one from contributing to society?

Pictures and videos as proof.

There were also news reports and interviews with several Aunties.

The Cotton Mill Aunties became famous.

Making the Aunties in other communities envious.

Everyone is so old, they really don’t need much. It’s not like decades ago when people couldn’t get enough to eat.

After eating and drinking their fill, people begin to seek spiritual fulfillment and social reputation.

At this time,

The Jiangbei Citizens organization began recruiting members. Cao Cheng had the Aunties personally explain the details using brochures.

The number of members began to skyrocket.

The street office also agreed, because the reputation was excellent.

The street office leaders received praise from the district and even the city, so they approved the 【Jiangbei Citizens】 organization without hesitation.

They even allocated a small office in the street office as a temporary workspace.

…

As long as they received official recognition,

even just at the street office level, the resources they could mobilize would increase dramatically.

Information on temporary residents could be accessed.

Although Sanjiang couldn’t compare to Zhonghai, Sanjiang itself wasn’t a small town; it had already implemented a temporary resident permit system ten years ago.

This is legitimacy, and most people will cooperate.

Actually,

This kind of citizen model emerged many years ago.

But with the arrival of the New Era, these organizations disappeared.

Their sudden reappearance caught people off guard.

And the effect was better than expected.

Quite a few problematic individuals were indeed caught.

In just one month, in the Jiangbei community alone, over forty cases of prostitution were successfully reported, including gambling, brawls, and even illegal parking and traffic violations were alleviated.

There were also major cases.

Six drug cases.

Two wanted fugitives were also apprehended.

Banners started to proliferate.

Leaders at all levels started to show concern.

All the channels were open.

This made the Aunties and Eldest Sisters very happy and highly motivated.

The number of members increased daily.

And some young people started to join, such as security guards from nearby shopping malls, gatekeepers, girls from snack street shops, etc.

It became more diversified.

This was also proposed by Cao Cheng, to develop members with diverse identities, infiltrating various industries.

Cao Cheng didn’t hold a position, but his name was listed. Every day, there was a steady stream of positive and negative emotions accumulating.

And little by little, it adds up.

Don’t underestimate the small contribution of each person, but it’s unstoppable when there are many people.

In the past month, Cao Cheng did several Ten-Consecutive Draws.

Including those before and after, a total of nine Ten-Consecutive Draws.

On the night of the fight with the thugs, it already exceeded 1000!

Later, encouraging the Aunties, he got about 600 that day!

Then, with the public opinion campaign, he got over 2000 more.

Cao Cheng discovered that any events related to him would generate Emotion Value, even if those experiencing the emotion didn’t know of Cao Cheng’s existence.

But the range is limited to Sanjiang City.

That’s a bit unfortunate.

Additionally,

An event provides the most Emotion Value at its initial stage, gradually weakening later.

This forces Cao Cheng to constantly create incidents.

Unless he doesn’t want to participate in the lottery.

Otherwise, relying only on “Jiangbei Citizens” wouldn’t allow him to truly lie flat.

Sigh.

A true hero is destined for a life of toil!
