Zheng Li was in a very good mood because his research on the soul had made some progress.
Perhaps the Mage Alliance's research on souls and higher dimensions is more in-depth than Zheng Li's findings on Earth.
However, those findings will not be made available to Zheng Li for free.
It requires a high amount of contribution points to purchase.
The Mage Alliance is great in every way except that its knowledge is too expensive.
After Zheng Li came to Blue Star, he thought about what would happen if the Mage Alliance also made its knowledge freely available to everyone, or to all mages.
The development of that Mage Alliance will definitely far surpass the current level.
Later, when Zheng Li learned that on Earth, traffic was far more valuable than knowledge, he did not believe that this phenomenon was correct.
Whether it's celebrities or internet influencers, they far surpass scientists in terms of earning money. In Zheng Li's view, it's not that they are worth so much money, but rather the traffic they represent that is valuable.
Previously, this term was called "attention," but now it's called "traffic." Top internet celebrities can earn just as much as top stars.
In fact, there is no fundamental difference between the two; both rely on traffic.
The difference is that celebrities used to attract attention through their work, while today's celebrities attract attention through marketing. Internet celebrities, on the other hand, attract attention through certain qualities.
After witnessing the phenomenon where traffic is more valuable than knowledge, Zheng Li felt that the Mage Alliance's practice of setting high prices for knowledge could effectively prevent such chaos, which made some sense.
However, this is still because Zheng Li does not study economics-related knowledge.
If he had a certain understanding of economics, he would realize that the Mage Alliance's traffic is worthless because the Mage Alliance's resources are almost provided for free.
The free supply of resources means that the concept of merchants in the Mage Alliance is almost entirely based on virtual world merchants, and the overall social structure results in a much lower demand for marketing compared to Earth.
Having made some progress, Zheng thought he should take the opportunity to relax and experience the everyday life of Blue Star.
The everyday life of Blue Star is a unique feature here, completely different from that of the Mage Alliance.
Zheng Li has lived on Blue Star for too short a time, and the offline consumer industry is now much more declining than before.
The development of the virtual world will lead to the decline of real-world commerce.
The reason why the Mage Alliance exists is because the virtual world is too advanced, and the cost-effectiveness of the real world is too low compared to the virtual world.
Especially after the realization of advanced artificial intelligence, the virtual world can be created to look exactly what you want without any cost.
A well-developed welfare system supports ordinary people so that they are unwilling to go out to work.
If we want to develop infrastructure on a large scale like on Earth, we can only rely on mages, but the number of mages is limited.
Therefore, under such circumstances, the Mage Alliance has almost no offline business in the real world.
In the real world, the only business that can survive is the food and beverage industry.
The sense of taste that intelligent life possesses from birth determines that the catering industry will continue to exist even with the advancement of technology.
Even with the rapid development and perfect development of China's pre-cooked food industry, it is impossible to eliminate artificial catering.
Of course, the market share of artificial catering will be compressed.
"How about we go shopping tonight? Tomorrow's the weekend."
Zheng Li sent a WeChat message to Li Miaomiao.
In fact, corporate executives don't have the concept of weekends.
For them, weekends are even busier than weekdays.
Weekends are often filled with dinner parties and social engagements, and various research activities are also often scheduled for weekends.
Normally, as long as there's nothing going on at the company, I can just go for half a day.
Anyway, it's just the lower-level employees clocking in, at most it includes middle management.
Senior management doesn't need to clock in.
"???"
"Are you a persimmon?"
Li Miaomiao first sent three question marks, then sent an emoji that said "Are you okay?"
"Are you going or not?" Zheng Li didn't waste any more words.
Li Miaomiao replied instantly: "Okay, I'll pick you up after get off work this afternoon."
"good."
At this moment, Li Miaomiao was in a meeting that had nothing of substance.
Given her position, no one would say anything even if she kept looking at her phone.
Subordinates will spontaneously imagine what work-related matters the other person needs to handle.
Those middle managers sitting opposite Li Miaomiao noticed that she had just picked up her phone and looked at it when she smiled genuinely.
Everyone knows this meeting was boring and pointless, so the smiles were clearly not because of the meeting's content.
For companies, it is often necessary to hold some formal meetings. The content of these meetings is usually decided by one or a few senior executives and then confirmed with the decision-makers.
The meetings were just a formality.
Those who noticed this scene were silently wondering what made Li Miaomiao so happy.
It's worth noting that in recent years, Li Miaomiao has been mostly serious and unsmiling at Kechuang Biotechnology.
Li Miaomiao was happy, but also curious and surprised, wondering why Zheng Li would so suddenly invite her to go out for a stroll that evening.
This is something that has never happened before.
When in doubt, Li Miaomiao always asks her older sister. In her opinion, Li Shuyao has much more experience in relationships than she does, and if she can't figure something out, asking her sister will likely give her a much better answer.
Of course, the "richness" here only refers to having had two or three romantic relationships during my undergraduate and graduate studies.
After becoming a fund manager at a fund company, I witnessed the chaos in the financial world and found it difficult to develop an interest in men in that field.

"What? Zheng Li asked you out tonight?"
Take appropriate safety precautions.
Forget it, let's not use any protection. If I get pregnant, I can use the child to gain status and rise in rank.
