Chapter 346: Dreams Can Be Bigger
Many people in the audience have done their homework before coming, have figured out the things that need to be paid attention to in space exploration, and have even planned everything according to their own capital and so on, and some have even formed a team. Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info Therefore, for the risks in space and the excellent expedition team emphasized by Zhang Wei, they said that they are ready, as for the fact that they must be under the monitoring of future technology companies, and the resources mined will also be sold to future technology companies first, they can also fully understand and accept, as long as they can make a fortune!
It is worth mentioning that the country promulgated and implemented the policy of serving the space age in 2020, according to this policy, human, material, financial, and policy are all for the purpose of entering space, and all universities in China must establish aerospace majors, astronomy departments and other majors related to space technology, focusing on cultivating relevant talents, and reserving human resources for the development of space.
However, excellent talents are a minority after all, in order to compete for these talents, those domestic companies that are interested in entering space have all poured into Tsinghua University, Peking University, University of Science and Technology of China, Nanjing University and other famous universities, as long as you have the ability, on the spot to hire, the annual salary given is basically two million yuan to start, plus each income commission, as long as you are lucky, a year of income can reach hundreds of millions, or even billions. The most popular among companies are astrophysics students, because astrophysics is the study of the physics of the universe, including the physical properties of stars (luminosity, density, temperature, chemical composition, etc.) and the interaction between stars and stars, this knowledge can help the expedition team formed by the enterprise to find the most valuable asteroid, and then use the most economical and safe way to transport the asteroid back to the moon.
In addition to these outstanding students who have become fragrant and sweet, some professors from major universities and staff of major astronomical observatories across the country have also chosen to "go to the sea" under the sugar-coated shells of enterprises, and those graduates of related majors who have changed careers after graduation have also been stimulated, picked up textbooks again, and studied seriously!
This is the power of capital! After the future technology companies and China announced the sale of spaceships, under the stimulus of huge wealth, the capital of society is frantically concentrating here, and they are going to enter this space age! And driven by capital, the whole society is accelerating its transformation to the space age!
This is actually the goal of the country and future science and technology companies, space is too big, only relying on the power of the country and future science and technology companies, it is impossible to explore and develop rapidly, only the whole country and nation are put into it, in order to expand rapidly in space, and only by letting everyone participate, the whole country and nation can go to the vast universe!
On the stage, Zhang Wei continued, "The things that should be emphasized have been emphasized, and it seems that my speech should also be over, but here, I want to ask you a question, you have now obtained the ticket to space, and you will have your own thoughts about space, so what does your dream look like?"
The audience suddenly became lively.
The audience who was watching the live broadcast also discussed.
"Of course, it is to find an asteroid rich in mineral resources, come back and sell it for a few trillion yuan, and become a trillionaire!"
"I'm going to go to the planet of diamonds and bring back all the diamonds on that planet! Then, I'm going to build a diamond palace with a diamond floor on the ground, a diamond gate for the gate, a diamond bed for the bed, and even a diamond toilet for the toilet. ”
"If possible, I would like to lead a fleet to the depths of space to conquer all the alien civilizations I encounter along the way, and immortalize the civilization of Earth!"
"It's better to have a planet of your own, to be a planet farmer, or to be a planet governor, or even to build an empire!"
"What age is it, and you still want to play the imperial set, is it really feasible?"
"Who knows, maybe in the interstellar age, the imperial system is better than the democratic system, and don't imperial states often appear in science fiction?"
"Democracy is the product of compromise brought about by the people's long struggle for a better life, but this is premised on the fact that the productivity of each individual is still an order of magnitude. However, in the future, intelligent robots must have been popularized, and the productivity of ordinary people is fundamentally insignificant to those in power, at this time, the greatest significance of the existence of ordinary people is to cultivate high-IQ scientists and artists and other "elites" for those in power, to make a figurative analogy, the greatest significance of the existence of ordinary people is the birth machine. Do you think that democracy is still needed for the authorities and "elites" at that time? As for the struggle, well, how can the ordinary people at the bottom of society fight against the army of intelligent robots and weapons that can destroy a planet at every turn? Therefore, in the interstellar age, perhaps an imperial system or a dictatorship system will really be born, and once a country chooses an imperial system or a dictatorship, without the intervention of external forces, the ordinary people at the bottom will not have the power to restore 'democracy for all'. ”
"The future described upstairs...... It seems a little scary, it seems that no matter what era it is, the people at the bottom are not easy to mix. ”
Zhang Wei looked at the people who were hotly discussed, smiled, and then said, "Everyone, the universe is very big, incredibly big, beyond our current understanding. The earth we live in now is only one of the eight planets in the solar system, and compared to the Milky Way, the solar system is also insignificant, the Milky Way includes 1500~400 billion stars and a large number of star clusters and nebulae, with a total mass of 210 billion times the mass of the sun; as for the Milky Way, it is only one of many galaxies, and it is now estimated that there are as many as 200 billion galaxies in the observable universe.
So, in the space age, anything is possible, and if you just want to mine in the solar system, then the dream is too small.
I think you must have seen a lot of science fiction movies or science fiction novels, there are always aliens to conquer the earth, however, we now actually have the hope of conquering other planets! The current spacecraft power system is a nuclear fusion engine, which can reach 10% of the speed of light at the fastest, which is a bit slow, not enough to explore the wider universe. But when we have an antimatter engine, spacecraft can reach about 80% of the speed of light, and that's when we can explore the Milky Way. If we had a warp engine, we would be able to explore the whole universe even more. In this process, we will definitely be able to discover many planets suitable for human habitation, and even many extraterrestrial civilizations, and these places will be the objects of our conquest! Perhaps, many of us can have a planet of our own in the future, and even if we can't do it, our children and grandchildren will definitely be able to do it!"
Zhang Wei paused, stretched out his hand to the sky, and said, "Everyone, please look up at this sky, this is a vast borderland, and a certain star here may be our territory!"
In fact, Zhang Wei did not intend to say this at the press conference, because it would expose his ambitions with future technology companies and cause some subtle effects on the relationship between future technology companies and the country. However, when discussing with him about the press conference, the chief took the initiative to mention this topic, and then asked Zhang Wei's opinion.
Zhang Wei also realized that the chief may have seen through him and Liu Hai and others will one day take this step when he insists on getting a piece of land on Mars, and there is no need to conceal it, so he simply talked about it, when the chief heard that Zhang Wei only wanted to find a planet outside the solar system, he said that the country was willing to support strongly, and vaguely said two reasons why the country was willing to support, on the one hand, it was to reward Zhang Wei and the future technology company for their great contribution to the country, and on the other hand, because the future technology company is getting bigger and bigger, it is bound to conflict with national interests one day in the future, which is determined by the expansion of capitalIt is inevitable that once such a thing happens, it will be a major loss to the country, to the future technology company, and to the whole nation, so it is a great good thing for the future technology company to have such an idea, and the country is willing to support it vigorously.
At this time, the state only intends to make special arrangements for future technology companies, but when the news gradually spreads in a small area of national political and military circles, it has caused a chain reaction, and in domestic political and military circles, almost 80% of the forces have united, saying that if other Chinese citizens find a planet suitable for human habitation outside the solar system, they should also support this Chinese citizen to become the lord of the planet as they do with future technology companies.
This is mainly out of profit, because everyone has an ambition, but this ambition has been worn out by reality, and now, this ambition is burning brightly, if you can really discover such a planet in the future and become the lord of the planet, you will lay the foundation for future generations, this is a temptation that cannot be refused! In fact, even the chief's own family believes that they should support Chinese citizens to become planet lords outside the solar system, and even establish an interstellar state! The national think tank also believes that the universe is too vast, and the distance between the two planets controlled by the state may be tens of light-years, or even thousands of light-years, and it is almost impossible to maintain the current mode of domination.
After fierce discussions, the domestic political and military circles finally reached a unified opinion, the solar system belongs to the control of the state and is the root of the Chinese nation, and the place outside the solar system, let the descendants of the Chinese nation to break through and explore, as long as they have the ability, they can have one or even countless planets, and they can also establish interstellar countries. In the future, China will be equivalent to the central government, and these interstellar countries will be equivalent to subject countries, which need to pay certain taxes to the central government, and the central government can provide military, scientific and technological support to these subject countries. To some extent, China is like Britain in the Age of Discovery, and those Chinese citizens who went out to open up are equivalent to the East India Company, and China's positioning in the future is the cosmic version of the "empire on which the sun never sets".
