Chapter Ninety-Nine: The Blue Star at the End of the Twenty-First Century
Only when you really see the world with your eyes will you know how big it is.
When Su Bai came to Blue Star, Earth time on July 1, 2017, and Blue Star time on July 1, 2090, the difference between the two worlds was seventy-three years.
The historical process of Blue Star is very similar to that of the Earth, and the level of science and technology and economic culture is also similar to that of the Earth, which means that the scientific and technological level of Blue Star at the moment is probably the level of the Earth 70 years later.
So what will the level of technology be like on Earth in 70 years?
It's hard to answer this question simply, but you can think backwards: What was the level of science and technology in 1950 70 years ago?
At that time, computers and atomic bombs had just been invented, and there was no Internet, manned spacecraft, mobile phones, tablets, the Internet, and so on.
Every time he thought of this, Su Bai felt very lucky.
As the hometown of Su Shichen, Yangcheng has been certified as a World Cultural Heritage by UNESCO. The grass, trees, flowers, trees and even people's clothing, food, housing and transportation here were all preserved as cultural landscapes until they were later planned as Yangcheng tourist areas by the Chinese government.
The town is still the same town, with boxy buildings high and low, and households one by one.
The streets are still the same, with tiled roads and overpasses stacked on several levels, but the materials are more advanced than the asphalt roads.
Except for police cars and ambulances, the other cars in Yangcheng are running on the ground instead of flying in the sky with exhaust fumes, no matter how strange the cars themselves are, at least they can be recognized as cars.
Fortunately, he traveled to Yangcheng, and he came from 70 years ago, and he was not too unaccustomed to life.
In Su Bai's memory, the development of science and technology outside Yangcheng is very good, what hanging rail cars, what intelligent robots have everything. It's just that Su Bai, the original owner of the body, is also a house, and in his spare time, he reads a novel at home and reads something, and he doesn't like to travel and haven't seen it.
In the pictures and videos, how advanced and technological other cities are, Thaksin, but after all, there is a layer of monitors, like a mirror.
And where Su Bai saw with his own eyes, where Blue Star was more advanced than the earth's technology, that is, the sweeping machine that sweeps the floor carefully and cleanly at home, the pot that can automatically stir-fry, the AI humanized computer, and the small items such as shopping carts and suitcases that can identify the owner as walking with him.
"The real water blue star, the real future technology, can finally be seen. ”
Su Bai looked forward to it and stepped on the train to the magic capital.
……
In fact, the moment he walked into the carriage, Su Bai saw it.
He seemed to have stepped into a time train, and he only felt that the level of development of science and technology had suddenly increased by several decades, and it had the appearance of 2090.
It is a maglev train with wide carriages and simple decorations, and a group of robot attendants shuttle among the passengers.
During the two-hour drive from Yangcheng to the Demon Capital, Su Baidong looked west and walked back and forth in the car.
Everything is fully automated, there is no driver to rely on the control of a central computer, and a group of robots serve the passengers, whether it is talking or trading without obstacles.
In this world, it takes less than 20 seconds for a maglev train to accelerate from a standstill to 400 kilometers per hour, and the passengers in the train can hardly feel it. Su Bai stopped several stops while wandering, but if it wasn't for the announcement to remind him to arrive at the station, he wouldn't have realized that the vehicle had slowed down at all.
As the distance lengthened little by little, when the vehicle stopped, Su Bai also leaned over and glanced out of the car a few times.
The platform of the station, neat and white, full of metallic luster, is very good and futuristic.
Su Bai is looking forward to it more and more.
In Lanxing, Magic City and Yangcheng are both iconic metropolises in China.
The label of Yangcheng is culture and nostalgia, which is nostalgic enough to accept Su Bai, a traveler 70 years ago.
The label of the magic capital is a real technology, the real future, and the real appearance of the world.
……
Su Bai followed the flow of people out of the platform, walked through a corridor that was not too long, and arrived at the hall where the passengers were picked.
The roof with no beams or pillars visible, the light that shines evenly from the ceiling, the rolling advertisements projected in the air, the vending machines rolling around on the ground, and the various robots dangling their mechanical arms as they weave through the crowd......
Su Bai's gaze swept over the novelty everywhere, and he was dizzying.
Maybe it's because of the AI restriction order, there are all kinds of robots here, but most of them are not humanoid, which is a little different from what I imagined, but if I look closely, they are all real technological embodiments.
After collecting his luggage and walking to the pick-up gate, he was presented with some pure white four-wheeled cars in the front basket and back seat.
Some cars have people sitting in the back, and some are single two pure cars, each car has a display screen, and the display screen has one or several people's names, which is the pick-up car of Blue Star.
Seeing the passengers coming, the people on the bus all walked down, took off the display screen on the car, and stepped forward with both hands.
The organizing committee of the Shi Shao Cup arranged a pick-up bus for each player, but there would be no staff to follow.
Su Bai walked straight through the crowd holding the display screen, and quickly found the luggage cart that came to pick him up according to the name.
His name was indeed written on the monitor, but there was also a teenager in a cap and sunglasses in the car, who was not sitting in the seat of the pick-up bus, but sitting cross-legged in the luggage box, his head down and seemingly playing with his mobile phone.
"Maybe it's because the arrival time is relatively close, and a car is arranged to pick up two runners. ”
Su Bai didn't care, he walked up directly.
The person sitting in the car playing with his mobile phone also saw Su Bai, and he jumped out of the frame with a foot.
"Hi hello, are you Su Bai?" said the young man in the cap, pointing to the word "Su Bai" on the display screen behind him.
"I am. Su Bai nodded, "You are?"
Hearing the sentence "I am", the black-haired boy's expression became active, he took off his hat and brushed off his hair and stepped forward: "Su Bai, long time no see." ”
Su Bai raised his eyebrows, he was very unfamiliar with the person in front of him, and when he thought about it, he was completely unimpressed.
"Ahem, the first time we met, the first time we met, I came to pick up the station......" The young man changed his words with some embarrassment, and stroked his forehead casually.
He introduced himself with a straight expression: "Hello, I am ruthless. ”
The scenery is merciless, and the name - it seems to be the famous young genius writer?
Therefore, not only is there someone who picks up the station, but he is also a big man in the literary world, and he is still full of familiarity and enthusiasm?
Is Shi Shao Cup so good?
Su Bai was a little puzzled.
ps1: The article is just my barren sci-fi idea, I think I can write how cool I am, well, maybe Blue Star has overcome inertia at that time~
ps2: I don't know if you still have an impression of this ruthless person.,It's been there.,Given that the body of the wind is a little friend of mine.,I'll definitely write him very interesting.,Uh-huh.。
