Author's notes: Do you guys think I should break this series out for a new fanfiction?
Keitaro Urashima sat silently in his office, contemplating where to set up a new factory for Urashima Enterprises. There were currently only two choices, Mol Mol or Fanfiction Land, and before Keitaro even finished looking at the statistics of both countries he knew which country to set the factory in. He thought back to what his mentor had taught him when he had first gained control of the company...
Flashback
"Now look here, you uneducated corporate newbie. Today will be the single most important lesson in your entire corporate career." addressed the tall man who looked like an older version of Keitaro. The only difference was that he oozed with style and grace, highly stereotyped traits that were supposedly only found in women. He wore a white lab coat, black pants and T-shirt underneath it, a highly stylised pair of glasses that were the polar opposite of Keitaro's own dorky glasses, with his hair spiked in a manner Keitaro could never ever hope to achieve.
"I'll start with the basics on where to set up a factory. You realize that your company is in the semi-conductor industry, and therefore, the factories need to be big. As such, the most important thing when considering the location is space. Therefore, your best bet would be to look for areas with low population concentrations, mainly in developed countries. Next, You look at the TAXES. That is singularly the make or break of your company. You see, the profit you get, the more taxes you pay. Its common sense, but taxes are never what they seem to be. Taxes grow to horribly insane sizes when your company expands. When your profit grows, your taxes grow exponentially. Your taxes do not grow at the same rate your profit does. Hence, make sure you get a country with the lowest taxes possible. Are all these going into your head?"
Keitaro is seen copying everything down as he listens to everything being said by Seta.
"To continue, you must first realize the importance of labor costs.Labor cost is also very important, seeing as many workers are needed. To fully understand this concept, you need to first understand the term "workers' value". The value of a worker is determined by his pay and productivity. Suppose you have two workers vying for the same job. Worker A can build 500 chairs a day and asks for 500 in pay. However, worker B asks for 1000, but he builds 5000 chairs a day. Who would you hire? Worker B, of course. Basically, "workers' value" is the same as productivity minus pay. Labor cost comes into pay when you have many workers, each with his own strengths and weaknesses. You will have to make sure that every worker is screened carefully, to make sure that his productivity matches up to his pay. If it does not, then you will have to fire him, I'm afraid."
"Next is technology. Its pretty self explanatory; basically, you wouldn't want to start a factory in a country like a backwards country."
Keitaro is seen nodding.
"Infrastructure, which is also important, means the state of the country. It should have good transportation, good connection systems, good Internet services, and good law enforcements. Then, you wouldn't have to worry about crime, power failures, failed connections on important calls, and workers constantly reporting late. This way, your productivity increases. Understood?"
Keitaro looks blank.
"Fine. Suit yourself."
Seta grabbed a red trench coat, a red top hat, dual gigantic pistols and jumped out the window.
End Flashback
Keitaro knew what to do immediately.
Fanfiction Land was heavily populated, with insanely high taxes as many other industries have already settled down. Sure, it has good infrastructure and relatively skilled labor, but crime was rampant, and the law enforcement was corrupt. Even if it was not, the underground societies still overpowered whatever the police could come up with. Keitaro dismissed it.
Looking at Mol Mol, Keitaro saw that the country was filled with technological geniuses, it has superb infrastructure, and there was no crime! Apparently the country had a god that would severely punish all rowdy inhabitants. Best off all, THERE WERE NO TAXES! Keitaro felt that it was insane. If a country had such well credentials, then why had nobody set up and industry there yet?
Su was sitting in her royal chamber, creating a walking disaster known as the "Mecha Tama". With its supreme firepower and extreme propulsion, it could out run jets and shoot them down at the same time. However, she still some regret over the Su Technology bust. If only she had put a hold on this personal project earlier, then her beloved company might not have faced financial crisis.
"Oh well. It's too late. Lets send this baby out!"
Su pushed a button on the Mecha Tama, and it immediately flew out and destroyed any factories within its vision.
Sigh, I have a feeling Godsbane doesn't read my work. If he does, why does he always ignore my author notes?
