Chapter 547
After listening to Zhang Yuan’s account, it took a while before Mr. Captain secretly sighed and came up with an objection: "This plan...well."
"There is the biggest question. Will the Tuss agree to this extremely risky plan? It has a time limit. There are strict restrictions on what kind of work can be completed in any time period."
Zhang Yuan laughed and said, "There is no problem in theory. Isn't it in the honeymoon period of two civilizations? We are conducting a lot of scientific and technological exchanges. I believe that in the future, there will be more and more cooperation. In two hundred years, or even three-four hundred years, the relationship will become very good."
"If the 17th plan is implemented well, the project progress will be faster. Forcibly shorten the project time by more than half. , What is this concept, is already the greatest benefit."
"I believe that for the life cycle of the Tussian civilization, they also want to complete this plan within one or two generations, with their own eyes See the birth of curvature technology."
"Their lifespan is much longer than ours. The understanding of our human beings is still on the surface. It is also impossible to guess in advance that the lifespan in my civilization is too long. Short may cause some problems."
Lifespan has always been a pain point for human beings. The race value of the human species is not high in so many interstellar civilizations. Although many life extension technologies have been purchased from the trading market, the average lifespan has been raised to 500 years old.
But there are some life-extending technologies that cannot be used for a while.
It's not because the technology is not good. But... because of the existence of virtual technology, people are not afraid of death. Suddenly having a lifespan that is too high will lead to chaos within the society, such as the collapse of all social structures such as marriage. These costs are difficult for humans to bear. Especially at this critical juncture, there is no opportunity for humans to adjust slowly. Much.
Lifespan is closely related to the strategic vision of a civilization. This is another big contradiction.
Zhang Yuan pondered for a while and continued: "In short, neither civilization wants the plan to fail. This is also the consensus of the two sides, so take a little bit of effort and talk about this plan. Of course, we can’t tell them our true intentions..."
"Even, to our members of the Science Council, we can’t tell the true intentions. Otherwise, it will be difficult for this plan to be internalized. Pass."
"They will tend to choose a more secure solution. Human beings are conservative in nature, do not want to change, and are unwilling to change. At this time, they need to take advantage of the fanatical atmosphere within the people to go. Promote the creation of this plan."
Yes, the atmosphere within the people is indeed very enthusiastic. Some radical plans, as long as they advocate that the project time can be cut in half, they are absolutely happy to accept.
If the high-level civilization agrees and the grassroots support it, then the middle-level cadres will not be unyielding, even if they may have great doubts in their hearts.
...
That night, Captain Ke, the hair grey-white, turned over and over, unable to sleep.
Huge psychological pressure lingers in the heart, turning into an invisible mountain, pressing him out of breath.
When he got up from the bed, he found that it was just three o'clock in the morning.
I can't sleep anymore...
Rubbing my red eyes, putting on my clothes again, and walking out of the room door. The lights in the corridors were very dim, only the lights in a few cafes and hospitals still flickered. Occasionally, a few pedestrians hurried past, making a series of "dong dong dong" footsteps.
Cole walked into a coffee shop and ordered a cup of "Dibal" coffee, tasted a little bit, with a hint of sweetness in the bitterness.
This is not real coffee, but a certain plant of an alien civilization. After being ground, it tastes a bit like "coffee". It contains certain antioxidants that can delay aging. Conducive to good health.
The times have become richer, science has advanced, and people's lives have become better and better. There is no doubt about this. However, with the adjustment of productivity, the price of many things will rise in the future. Daily necessities such as food and clothes will not change prices, but entertainment products and certain light luxury products will definitely become more expensive. .
Manpower in this area will be transferred to other positions.
Clay suddenly recalled that period of history.
When Earth Era traveled through three thousand years of time, where could you drink coffee?
Even a little seasoning is a luxury.
However, the original pioneers persisted.
If we cut all the living resources in half now, then society will inevitably be in chaos. Even if it is reduced by 20%, there will still be many complaints.
It is easy to change from frugality to luxury, and it is difficult to change from luxury to frugality. From this level, human beings have never changed... But how can it be possible for such a long time in the future to not suffer?
After a while, when I was in a trance, I walked in again with an acquaintance, the Minister of Foreign Affairs Chen Mu.
He also had the same worried look. When he saw Captain Ke, he was taken aback.
"Can't you sleep?"
"Yeah, I feel a little hungry when I fell asleep."
The two of them laughed at the same time. .
After a while, a third person and a fourth person walked in. They were all high-ranking officials. They came here with dark circles, not knowing why not. .
Captain Ke made a cup of coffee for these people, said with a bitter smile: "Mr. Zhang's words are so shocking to me. It makes me think about the purpose of our entire civilization... Is it to maintain long-term progress, vigorous vitality, or to live muddleheaded and always exist in this universe..."
"Humans, sometimes, you really have to push yourself. Otherwise, you don't know yourself. What's the potential of the Kunlun Mountains."
"Level 4 civilization is not that simple."
They know the true identity of Zhang Yuan and that this transcender is the number one in the Kunlun Mountains fleet. A captain once vigorously overthrew the oldest family system of mankind and established a "social public support system" in one hand.
Now for thousands of years, people have adapted to the new social system long ago, and there are no children born naturally.
People have lost the concept of raising children by themselves.
The vigorous vitality and huge mobilization capacity of the new human civilization are based on this system. But, who can remember the overwhelming opposition in the meeting?
Now it’s time to make a critical decision. Whenever I think of this, everyone sweats all over, as if they are facing the same pressure that was overwhelming.
The source of this pressure is not the present, but the future!
In the next thousand years, the spit of future generations.
Endless overtime work, an aging population, and even longer working hours. They will certainly regret this choice.
But after 1,400 years, if you really have the curvature technology, the descendants behind will be rejoiced by today's choice, thank you for the hard work of this predecessor.
Human beings are such a creature, as long as they endure hardships and don’t eat themselves, everything will be fine.
"Have you thought about it?" One of the old people suddenly asked.
"I have thought about it, but there is nothing to think about..."
The captain sighed and looked towards the far distance, as if he had made up his mind.
