"Nope! The risk of uncontrollable gene editing is too high! ”

6 Yi recalled in his mind the system's price of 99.8 billion points for the complete information of human genes, and thought of the problem that human modified genes may induce various genetic mutations, and a rare sense of awe rose in his heart, and he said with a serious expression:

"The mystery of genes is far from everyone's imagination, it has too many uncontrollable factors, it is likely that we artificially modify a gene, this gene and the original natural genes of human beings will mutate to produce genetic defects or even gene viruses that we expected.

I am not advocating the editing of human genes until I have a complete understanding of human genetic information! ”

"But how can this reduce the rate of disease and increase life expectancy?"

General Chen was a little puzzled, there is a limit to the lifespan of living things, and the lifespan of human beings will also reach the end of the day, which is the innate limitation of genes.

"We don't solve the problem from the perspective of changing genes, but we can solve the problem from the perspective of physiology and chemistry."

6 Yi thought silently for a while, and said: "For example, if a certain gene defect leads to the loss of a certain protein and leads to the occurrence of disease, then we can supplement this protein through acquired medical means to return the human body to normal."

If we find the gene that determines the length of the telomere, that is, the gene that determines the longevity, by understanding the operating mechanism of this gene, then we can also supplement and repair the telomere.

These are all feasible directions and technical means to develop, rather than directly editing and changing genes to solve problems.

The human gene is 3o billion base pairs, they are a whole, and before all the information about the gene is fully understood, the rash editing of the gene will bring uncontrollable risks that humans anticipate. ”

"I see."

The leader also nodded solemnly, and then asked, "In addition to these directions, are there any others?" ”

"Materials, materials are the bridge from theory to practice, and are the foundation of all science and technology.

"Space gravitational waves, the project you're working on?" The leader couldn't help frowning.

"Yes, this is not my selfishness, I am not short of money or resources, and I don't need the state to give me funds, I just want the country to pay attention to research in this area."

6 Yi shook his head and said: "Gravitational waves, it represents the future, just like the previous controlled nuclear fusion technology.

Among all the above technologies, there is one very important technology that I actually didn't mention, and that is interstellar motivation!

This is a core technology that any civilization that needs to focus on after freeing itself from the constraints of the planet, but the innate limitations of the working fluid motive make it not very suitable as an interstellar motive technology.

Perhaps everyone already has a certain understanding of the performance parameters of the Orion motive, and thinks that such a motive is very powerful and can be used for interstellar voyages.

However, it is a pity that it can only be said to be barely qualified for interstellar navigation, and it is more of a galactic motive.

As we all know, it is very difficult to replenish matter without the existence of a planet outside the galaxy, which means that we need to replenish supplies at once when we take off or are about to leave the galaxy.

According to the calculations, we use Orion motivation to go to Proxima Centauri, and in order to travel the distance of 4.22 light years to get there, and penetrate the interstellar gas clusters and interstellar dust between the galaxies, more than 60% of the spacecraft's own mass will have to be hydrogen bombs and liquid nitrogen, not to mention that it will take more than 5o years to get there.

Because we increase the degree of spacecraft to one-tenth of the actual limit of the working fluid motive alone, it is not that it cannot be added, but the cost of adding it will be unbearable.

This is still Proxima Centauri, and if we go to Tianwan IV or other more distant galaxies, it will take more time for our spacecraft to fuel the proportion.

Therefore, the working fluid motive is not suitable for interstellar navigation, and the only thing that can be applied to interstellar navigation is the curvature motive in theory.

The curvature motive is related to the space-time domain, and at present, the only thing we can study and touch the space-time field is space gravitational waves, so it represents the future. ”

No matter how awesome controlled nuclear fusion is, it also needs to be motivated to propel the spacecraft along.

The focus of the working fluid motivation is the word working fluid, which needs to consume the working fluid at all times to do work, just like taking a stone and throwing it backwards will give you a forward reaction thrust.

Although the loss of gravity-free influence in space is not large, the long star journey, complex gravity, endless interstellar dust and interstellar gas clusters will all reduce the spacecraft.

Maybe this reduction will be small, but on the scale of a few light years, ten or twenty light years, you will need to spend a lot of propulsion mass to maintain the degree.

In addition, relativistic factors also need to be considered, the larger the degree of the object, the higher the mass of the object, the lower the efficiency of the adding, in fact, the working fluid motivation can not be added at will, to increase the degree to one-tenth of the light is the actual limit, and the cost is too high.

Therefore, those who embark on interstellar voyages within a few years of the breakthrough of controlled nuclear fusion must be the protagonists of the portable space, in which there are several galaxies of matter that can be consumed.

"What advice do you have for what to do next? What kind of adjustment should be made to the social system after the breakthrough of controlled nuclear fusion? ”

The leader paused for a moment, digested what 6 Yi said, and then asked the next question.

"Education."

6 Yi said seriously: "I can't answer the details of the specific system, but I can talk about the future trends."

After the breakthrough of controllable nuclear fusion, the problem of resources will be completely solved in the short term, and it is foreseeable that civilization will enter a period of rapid development in the future, the more abundant the material, and the more the center of gravity of society will be biased from the material to the spiritual.

Spiritual civilization needs to be guided in construction, otherwise it is very easy for all people and even society as a whole to be immersed in drunken dreams and death, and entertainment to death.

In fact, this trend has been highlighted after we enter the 21st century, but in the future, this problem will become more and more serious if it is not controlled.

Therefore, I think that the next country should carry out macro-control of education, and in the future era of higher and higher intelligence, many industries and many jobs do not need to exist, and intelligent systems and intelligent robots can replace them.

At this time, we should prepare in advance, reduce the education investment in these industry disciplines that will inevitably face elimination, and let more children turn to scientific research, basic disciplines, culture and system construction.

Only when the problem of resources is solved can scientific research and the building of spiritual civilization be the true core of a civilization.

It is foreseeable that in the future, after the resource problem is resolved, the government's responsibility will no longer be to improve the economy, increase the per capita distribution of resources, and improve the people's living standards.

The government's responsibilities should be shifted to how to rationally use productive forces and allocate resources rationally, so as to ensure that the members of civilization will not fall into the infinite abundance of material life, and to ensure the vitality and forward momentum of civilization.

In this regard, I think we have a natural advantage over the old rice and the Russians. ”

"Tell me what you think, how do we have an advantage over Lao Mi and them?" Hearing this, the leader asked with great interest.

"Our system is fundamentally different from theirs, our goal is social communism and building a spiritually rich civilization, but they are controlled by capital, and they control society by mastering material resources."

6 Yi smiled and said: "The essence of capital is to use the circulation of money and the operation of social industries, and the upper capitalists exploit the surplus labor value from the lower laborers.

If this continues, the resources at the disposal of the upper capitalist class will become more and more enormous, until they will affect the functioning of the whole society.

This system has a strong advantage before the problem of resource shortage is solved, because it can stimulate people's motivation to compete upward, and it will make the whole country and civilization burst into great power.

However, after the resource problem is solved, this advantage will not be obvious, and even the advantage will become a disadvantage, so that people will lose the motivation to compete upward.

It's very simple, in the past, everyone worked hard to make money to improve their social status, because when they made money and their status improved, their lives would become better.

But after solving the problem of resources, even if you don't make money and don't improve your social status, everyone's life is actually not much different under the extremely abundant resources.

In fact, this situation can be seen from the development trend of capitalist countries in recent years, life was not good in the past, and as soon as the industrial revolution appeared, it was an explosive output, and the strength of the country was increasing by leaps and bounds.

But as life gradually improved, they began to run out of stamina, most notably in Western Europe.

Lao Mi is a little better, because of the false name of the first power, they have always been worried about being overtaken by us or Russia, so they dare not relax even if they live a rich life.

But after so many years of affluence in Western Europe, what changes do you see in them over the years? It seems that the economy is improving, but the essence of national strength and strength has not changed in the slightest, and it is even regressing.

In the case of insufficient resources and poor life of the people, capitalism prevails, because people yearn for a better life, so they will want to climb up.

However, as the resources gradually become abundant and the people's lives gradually become richer or even more abundant, the potential of our socialist system will gradually become prominent.

We can quickly change the industrial structure of society and change the social responsibilities of various industries through macroeconomic regulation and control.

And what about the old rice? They can't do this kind of macroeconomic regulation and control, because their foundation is capital, and such regulation and control damages the interests of the capital behind them.

So even if there is controlled nuclear fusion, Lao Mi's exhibition will be more difficult than ours, because they will encounter too much resistance to the exhibition, and they will either overthrow themselves first and then exhibit again, or carry out restrictive exhibitions. ”

"Then what do you think will happen to us and them in the future?" The leader pondered for a while after listening, and then gently tapped his fingers on the table and asked.

"There will be a battle!"

6 Yi said categorically without hesitation, as soon as these words came out, the leader's face did not change, but General Chen next to him was subconsciously stunned.

"Tell me what you think and why." The leader was silent for a moment, then asked.

"It's very simple, we can see the drawbacks of capitalism after the resource problem is solved, and Lao Mi must also be able to see it himself."

6 Yi was silent and said: "If we want to solve this problem at the root, we must fundamentally reform the system.

Reform is not just talk, and this is not our reform and opening up, and the conflict of interests between the old and new forces will inevitably lead to turmoil in the country, and their strength will be greatly reduced in a short period of time, and they will be afraid that we will take this opportunity to swallow them.

Even if we don't have this idea, they will have this worry and defense, so before they carry out fundamental reforms, there will be conflicts and even wars, and they will not carry out reforms until they are sure that nothing is lost. ”

"What about nuclear deterrence?" Next to him, General Chen couldn't help asking, nuclear bomb - this is the real foundation of human peace.

"At that time, nuclear weapons will not be a deterrent, because there will be no conflict in the short term, and now everyone's focus is still on exhibition.

Human nature is a very delicate thing, even if the consortium behind Lao Mi sees this problem, but you want them to put aside their own interests and their rights to reform now, which is unrealistic.

Because this is not an ordinary amendment to the constitution or a revision of the law, but a direct attack on the foundation of their existence.

We have only heard of capitalists risking their lives for the sake of profit, but we have never heard of capitalists risking their lives for the sake of other people's lives.

In this way, they will only suppress this contradiction first, and at the same time seek a second way back for themselves, and perhaps they will secretly become the leaders of the new forces of reform in the future......"

6 Yi shook his head and said: "When the consortium behind them completes the layout of their golden cicada shell, and secretly turns into the representative of the interests of the new forces of reform, when Lao Mi's internal contradictions have to be reformed, it may have been a few years or even more than ten years at that time, and everyone is likely to colonize in the solar system."

So the future battlefield will only be in the starry sky, and even after there is a colonial area, even if the nuclear bomb cleans the earth's environment?

When everyone has only one planet, nuclear is a deterrent, but when everyone goes out of the planet and can carry out planetary transformation and colonization, nuclear is no longer a deterrent. ”
