Chapter 239: The Prophecy of the Age of Guidance
Ella shyly stepped up and grabbed one end of the tube.
"Very well, it's a very thick tube, and we take out a little ball and label it ball number 1, which represents the call that is going on between them. The person on the other side of the pipe picked up the ball, pretended to say a word, and then threw it on the other side of the pipe, and the classmate over there said a word, and then threw it over. ”
"Well, we see that most of the time, the pipes are empty. That's how we communicate now. Let's take some more students, in pairs, holding different numbered balls, and repeat the above action. What do you see, the same thickness of the pipe, if you turn information into a numbered standard, it is enough for many people to communicate at the same time. An existing communication line can produce such an effect by changing the format of the communication content. ”
"For a long time to come, how to compress communication information into more effective communication methods, and how to intelligently identify this information, so that communication is becoming more and more efficient, will become a new discipline, and communication students will have more say in this regard."
These basic knowledge, students majoring in guiding communications have already learned, Duchamp saw that some of the students below showed impatient expressions, and his talent was stimulated, and he automatically entered the mouth cannon mode.
"Now, these technologies seem to be far away from us, including communicators, and if we want to communicate with anyone over long distances, we have to borrow a teacher's communicator, which may not be able to get through, and this is our current situation. In the next moment, I'd like to share with you some of the research work that Lehman and Chase have begun to try, and how the Guiding Forces Network will affect our lives in the future. ”
"The first point I make is that when we are twenty years later, when we are separated from each other in the world, we miss each other, we don't have to come to Ruray in a car. We can communicate with anyone at any number on one end of the network and the other, and we can even meet and chat with many people at the same time, as we do today. ”
"The second point is that in twenty years, each of us will have a communicator at home, not only at home, but each of us will have a portable communicator on our body, the size of a pocket watch in my hand. When we wanted to go out to eat and our store needed to be stocked, we would pick up the communicator we had and start calling 'So-and-so Bistro to give me a place' or 'So-and-so company, send me two barrels of wine quickly'. ”
"The third point is that in twenty years, we will lose the word class. There are no levels to the net, the top and low layers are connected to each other, and the top stone can touch the bottom layer of rock. The network of the entire Semrian continent is connected into a complete network, and the gap between the rich and the poor, the gap in culture and education, the gap caused by the inaccessibility of transportation, and so on, will gradually narrow, and the whole world will develop towards an integrated society, and all the old rules will fall apart, including the aristocracy, but also other phenomena that we are seeing today, and even disputes between countries. ”
"Some of us will be at a loss, some of us will be jubilant, and some of us will say, this is not what I want, but it's too late to say that. In the past 50 years, the world has changed, the advent of the era of guidance, airships that can fly over mountain peaks, cannons that can fire hundreds of cels, and guidance machinery that can run day and night, the emergence of these things has already changed the world, and advanced technology is even terrifying. But our world has not become better because of the development of the guiding force revolution, there are still so many poor people, and there are still so many people who can't afford to use the guiding force, why is this? ”
The answer is in front of us, because we still lack a net, a net that can open up and share the fruits of the leading revolution, a net that can bring the world to common prosperity. It's the great experiment we're going to do today. If you think that this network is just a more convenient communication tool, then you are wrong, very wrong, this network will become the world's largest carrier, will become the largest platform for openness and sharing. In the future, our network will be alive, and the terminal of the network will be the people of the whole world, note, not the country, but the whole world. ”
"There are a lot of good books in the library of the University of Rurey, and if we put all the contents of them on the Internet, people all over the world can consult them and gain knowledge, and every user puts something useful on the Internet, and everyone will get an endless supply of knowledge and information. This is a tool that, if used wisely, will turn the entire continent of Semria into a prosperous, rich, and vibrant planet, even more than the ancient prosperity that preceded the Great Collapse, and it is a transcendent artifact created by us humans ourselves. ”
"Some people may laugh and say I'm a fool, but I believe and must believe all this. In these hundred years, society has developed more than the last thousand years combined, a new civilization is taking shape in our lives, and in what is now Erebonia there are blind and ignorant people everywhere trying to suppress it. New civilizations brought new forms of the family, changed ways of working, releasing, and living, brought new economies, new political conflicts, and in addition to that, different ideological conflicts. Where the Semria people will go, and whether our civilization will collapse again, these questions are the prophets and wise men of our time, but the solution lies not in the hands of the prophets, but in the hands of all of you, the students of our engineering university. ”
"What should we do? Are we frightened? Do you turn desperately to the past and try to rebuild the dying world, or do you bravely face the reality and build a new world of harmony and prosperity? Now we have such a sharp weapon in our hands, which will reverse our civilization, from a deformed unilateral development to a healthy development that will benefit more and more people, from a small group of people benefiting from the guiding revolution to benefiting everyone, this is the era of the guiding network, an era in which the privilege of the whole world becomes flat. If this era is missed, perhaps, the world will be destroyed because humanity has once again mastered too much power, and civilization will return to darkness instead of prosperity. ”
The subject had been taught, and the unaware crowd below, except for Mark Song, who was still faithfully writing, most of the other students were already frightened, and a few were so excited that they blushed when they heard the uplifting words, but they didn't know what to say.
Duchamp didn't even say anything about the end of class, and walked out of the warehouse quickly. Behind him, many people still struggled to think about what Duchamp had said, with a little awakening, but also with more confusion, and even the sound of argument sounded, and gradually the argument turned into a quarrel.
Only Mark Song, who was working hard to write it, wrote it in general terms with quick notes and a large number of self-created symbols. He was happy in his heart: "This is the only one in the audience." ”
