Chapter 830 – Guild Share Revolution

Conflicts would often give rise to change.

This whole trust issue, be it those who change guild leaders or leave the guild, it would stop soon. For the guild to develop till today, the system was already mature, and it was difficult for internal conflicts to cause that much damage.

Especially to the three huge guilds like Tingyu Floor; after all, they had the satellite cities in their hands, so all the more people would not leave.

However, people not leaving did not mean that they were happy.

How to monitor and keep in check the guild leader so as to ensure all the interests of the players were not affected or betrayed had become the popular topic.

Even the inner circles of the guilds that were not directly affected were discussing similar topics.

It was best to be safe rather than sorry.

China had never lacked smart people.

In less than two days, an effective guild structure was suggested by some people.

The one who used it was not the mid and large scale guilds but one of the giants – Tingyu Floor. Jianqi Leiyin was a strong woman, and this judgement error was one that she took the blame for.

Although there were few who would leave them due to their possession of the Satellite City, Jianqi Leiyin was sure that to keep their hearts and unite them by her side on Planet Hope, she needed to do something.

The moment Shanhai City attacked Xunlong City, Jianqi Leiyin felt something. The moment the uproar started, she and the guild higher ups discussed ways to win back the trust of the members.

Jianqi Leiyin had worked with Shanhai City for some time, and she had learned some of the ideals of Ouyang Shuo. After pondering for a full day, she finally thought of a guild structure that would affect the entire guild circle.

It sounded simple, but it was to start a guild share revolution.

Guilds in game were the same as enterprises in real life. The guild leader and the elders were the founders.

Similar to enterprises in real life, at the start of the guild development, the guild members would have high trust in the founders and their team and grant them a lot of power.

Maybe at this stage, the players had not realized how tight the relationship between the decisions the guild leaders made and their own interests were. They joined the guild to find someone to back them up, someone to rely on.

Since that was the case, they naturally had to follow them unconditionally. Being affected by normal game thinking and under the many rules and guild laws, normal members had no room to act.

It was even to the point where normal members would not have any relationship with the guild leaders. The ones that were around the guild leader were the higher powers and the guild elites.

Hence, guild decisions were basically decided by the core level, which resulted in the guild leader making all the decisions.

At such a stage, normal members did not feel that anything was wrong with this situation.

At that moment, guilds and their members relied on one another, so the two did not have many conflicts of interest as the guild did not have any profits yet.

At the 4th year, the guilds have tided past their tough times, especially with the Satellite City being released, and the huge guilds had started to profit.

The relationship started to slowly change, and the normal members were not so calm anymore. They started to stare at the profits and hope to earn more.

Since there was a demand for interests and benefits, normal members would not let the higher ups decide everything. Hence, the primitive decision system needed a modern enterprise management method.

If not, it would be hard to make the guild grow bigger.

In reality, the most common way would be to attract new investors or list your company on the market. And the basic requirement for listing would be to have a modern enterprise management and financial system.

In reality, there were experts that focused on evaluating such organizations.

People who failed would not even manage to list their company on the market.

Guilds obviously did not need to be listed, but this share revolution was needed to ensure that all interests were accounted for.

If it succeeded, members would all hold shares and feel a sense of identity in the guild, putting their own fates closely together with that of the guild.

If a person causes the guild to be affected, normal members would not let them off. Similarly, if an outside power could affect the guild’s interests, the normal members would go all out to fight.

With that, the guild unity and combat strength would reach a whole new level.

All in all, there were more pros than cons.

Hence, even without this whole trust issue, the guild share revolution would still have taken place. After all, Earth Online was too special, and it was not only entertainment; it affected real life.

The group holding shares only dealt with the guild interest problem but did not solve the part about monitoring of the guild leader.

Hence, Tingyu Floor also planned to establish a Board of Directors and have a Chairman to hold board meetings to monitor guild workings and ensure that everything runs smoothly.

The Board of Directors would be composed of both commoners and higher ups of the guilds.

The guild leader would be the Chairman Board of Director; the Board would restrict and monitor them, and important decisions would be made through a vote by major shareholders.

Hence, the role of the guild leader would change from simply the leader to a professional manager.

Jianqi Leiyin was extremely smart and had an enterprising spirit that even men did not have. Such a revolution would be a massive hit to her personal interests.

For her to give up a portion of her profits for the long term progress of the guild was truly noble.

Hence, the moment this plan was tossed out, the problems inside the guild quietened down and her prestige went up instead.

“A beautiful reversal!”

Bai Xiaosheng commented on Tingyu Floor’s plan in the Quick Daily News.

…

With Tingyu Floor at the lead, the other guilds that were a part of this trust crisis either volunteered or were forced to copy Tingyu Floor.

In this process, many higher ups that obtained their power through their relationships with the guild leader were mercilessly excluded from the Board of Directors.

On the contrary, some famous grassroots players were recommended and became directors, becoming higher ups in the guild and fighting for the interests of the common people.

Some guild leaders that had previously avoided catastrophe were even dragged down from their spot by the shareholders and kicked out of the door.

The other two guilds that betrayed Shanhai Alliance were not having it easy either.

Jun Yilao’s identity was revealed, and he was facing the worst crisis of all. He had to openly promise he had nothing to do with his family before being able to barely keep his position.

The Jun Family’s attempts bore no fruit in the end.

Jun Yilao’s past was revealed to the wilderness, and he faced the humiliation and mocking of many. The cracks between his family and him became irreparable.

“Scram! Without you, would this have happened to me?”

Jun Yilao was so furious that he chased his family out of Satellite City; he even chased out his father. The two of them broke off like how father and son quarreled in dramas.

After all that, Jun Yilao was unable to make all the decisions in Streamer, the guild he built from scratch. In the near future, he had to compromise.

Compared to Jun Yilao, Priest Qingniu was a little better off. After all, many of the core members of Laojun Temple were friends with him.

However, in the future period of time, it was unavoidable that he would have to keep his tail between his legs.

Similar situations were going to happen across the wilderness.

Without a doubt, this was the deepest shuffling within guilds since the start.

After this shuffle, it was going to be great news to the overall strength of guilds in China.

No one would have expected this to happen beforehand.

It was not just the guilds who were threatened by the trust crisis that faced shouts for a share revolution as even other guilds faced similar shouts.

The guild system change was much needed.

The first to respond to these shouts was the Snow-War Rose Mercenary Guild. Apart from following Tingyu Floor’s plan, they came up with something new.

The directors all agreed for Xie Siyun to take the role of Chairwoman to invite Ouyang Shuo to the Board as an Independent Director.

The cost of investment would be the crossbows and arcuballistas he sent over that night.

On the 2nd month, 26th day, without those weapons, they would have fallen to the schemes of Silver Hand.

Hence, the members of Snow-War Rose felt truly grateful toward Shanhai City. Furthermore, the two had been working closely with one another, so inviting Ouyang Shuo was natural.

With that, the two sides were connected and their ally relationships became much more secure.

Closely behind, Thread and Fallen Moon both completed their guild share revolution.

Similarly, Ouyang Shuo also became an Independent Director of Thread. In Fallen Moon Guild, Ouyang Shuo became an exceedingly important director, only second to Sun Xiaoyue.

What Ouyang Shuo did not expect was for the Blood Evil Mercenary Group to invite him as an Independent Director.

None of the members of the group opposed Blood Romance’s decision.

One had to say that this was an extremely special guild.
