Falsifying history is good business

Chapter 295: The Great World Project is like a "United Nations"?
At this moment, the "Executive President" and "Technical Director" of the Great World Project reached a consensus to put pressure on the two noisy "directors" in the "board of directors".

"From now on, we need more 'unknown' events to collect sample data; we need to know clearly what kind of stories and what kind of characters are more likely to break through the established framework and produce additional intersections. What are the different impacts of the 'unknown' in different backgrounds on the larger world?" God calmly listed and explained what was to be done next.

Lin You suddenly remembered O'Dimm's warning, and his excitement faded a little. "If we produce a large amount of 'Unknown', won't there be any side effects?"

"What are the side effects?" God didn't seem to be surprised at all by this question.

"That is... if everyone discovers that the 'unknown' can be created actively, then the gods can live well without the Great World Plan; then..."

Before Lin You finished speaking, God interrupted him with a smile: "Are you worried that the emergence of the 'unknown' will shake the foundation of the Great World Plan?"

"No? Since it's called 'unknown', it means none of us knows its consequences."

"Although it is called 'unknown', we already know some things." God smiled, "In order to give birth to 'unknown', a large number of different story worlds are needed as a basis; if 'unknown' is a product, then the story world is the raw material, or resource, for manufacturing the product. If there is no big world plan, and the gods are independent of each other, how can we ensure the reasonable allocation of resources? Do we have to fight a war of gods?"

Lin You thought about it and felt that it was not impossible. The gods in the virtual dimension were all spiritual products of humans in the real dimension. The so-called divinity was human nature. In the real dimension, humans had fought countless wars for resources. Why couldn't the gods in the virtual dimension fight?
God smiled and corrected the writer's idea: "If there was no Grand World Plan at the beginning, and the 'unknown' phenomenon was born first, then perhaps a war among the gods might break out; but now that the Grand World Plan has been established, the gods have another choice."

Lin You poured cold water on him, saying, "They may also abandon this option. As the saying goes, greed is insatiable. Not every god has enough rationality to choose win-win cooperation. On the contrary, the cooperation in the Great World Plan seemed more like a helpless move."

"For those powerful pantheons, there are indeed risks of acting on their own; however..." God's relaxed expression showed his optimism at the moment, "For most weak pantheons, or pantheons that were once powerful but have now declined, they are definitely unwilling to participate in this kind of winner-takes-all, loser-lost game; and the Great World Plan happens to be dominated by weak pantheons."

Lin You frowned slightly, and then suddenly realized; just like the human kingdom in the real dimension, the weaker and poorer the country is, the more it cannot do without the United Nations and various international cooperation organizations. Putting yourself in their shoes, don't the weak gods in the Great World Plan have the same thoughts?
In the two world wars, weak and small countries were just cannon fodder; no matter how the gods fight, the weak pantheons are destined to be losers.

The weaker the pantheon is, the more it depends on the Great World Plan. For example, the Roman Pantheon is almost being plundered by Mount Olympus. Doesn't it look pitiful? But in fact, there are many pantheons in the Great World Plan that are weaker than the Pantheon.

The three major pantheons of Shaman, Voodoo, and Inca, etc., have only a few million followers left in the world. Can such a small pantheon still afford to fight the war of gods? If it weren't for the platform of the Great World Plan, would they still have the confidence to speak loudly and fight for their own interests?

How come I didn’t think of such a simple truth at the beginning?

"In addition to the attitudes of the small pantheons, there is a second key factor, which is you." God continued, "As the writer, you are an important guarantee for the big world plan. Once the big world plan collapses, how can those pantheons that try to separate and act on their own guarantee your support? Without the help of the writer, even the step of story integration cannot be completed, so how can we promote the birth of the next step of 'unknown'?"

"Perhaps, they have a chance to wait for the second traveler from the real dimension?" Lin You said with his hands spread out; this was also a small worry that he had been unable to resolve.

"Then we must hurry up." God said with a smile, "Before the second time traveler appears, we must continue to consolidate and expand the Great World Plan, so big that no god system is willing to give it up." The writer curled his lips and said, "Increase the sunk costs of the participants?"

God nodded: "Yes, that's what I mean."

"After hearing what you said, I realized that my role is so crucial." Lin You laughed at himself.

"If you want the gods to recognize your right to speak and grant you the power to judge, you need to make yourself more important." God encouraged with a smile.

The author felt a little awkward because he had initially encouraged God to fight for the right to judge for him, but now he was being encouraged by God to continue to expand the power of creating the "unknown". Lin You had a hunch that for a long time to come, the "unknown" would be the focus of the struggle among the gods.

The seed of destiny deep in the soul that has already taken root, sprouted, and gradually grown branches and leaves is also echoing this premonition.

"We've spent quite a bit of time talking, but we have to do our work piece by piece." God was about to end the conversation and open a portal to another world; "We've talked about the story of Grand Theft Auto before, now let's integrate it!"

"GTA6 has not been released yet, and the related story world is still in its infancy. Is this okay?" Lin You asked this question with a smile, and it was obvious that he didn't take it to heart.

Although the plot of the "GTA" series of games does not stand up to scrutiny, especially when criminals are the protagonists, which infinitely lowers the capabilities of US law enforcement agencies, it is ultimately based on reality and there is no irreconcilable fundamental contradiction between it and the big world.

As with "Red Dead Redemption", the biggest contradiction lies in the geographical location; as long as the location where the fictional story takes place is rewritten into the real map, the integration process will be a smooth process.

As for how to merge, players around the world have already "thought" it out for Lin You. Los Angeles, Las Vegas, Miami; it's nothing more than building a satellite city next to the famous city in the real dimension, or simply adding a new urban area.

Things are different now. When the writer was not strong enough, it was difficult to rewrite a new island for the story of Treasure Island. Now that he is strong enough and the divinity in his soul has gradually matured, isn’t it easy to rewrite a few small towns?
Moreover, one advantage of the GTA series over Red Dead Redemption is that there are no provable "gods" in it, so there is no need to specifically ask indigenous gods for their opinions on modifications.

Considering that the United States in reality is also the country with the highest abuse of psychiatric drugs in the world, the occasional weird things that appear in the game plot can be attributed to cults or mental delusions.

It's all because of taking too much medicine.
