Chapter 565: Eight Years Later
Every time you hibernate, time seems to freeze.
But by the time I woke up from hibernation, time had already raced forward for a long, long time. If you are used to this, you are a little looking forward to hibernation, because every time you wake up, you will find that the whole society has changed dramatically.
In this way, it is understandable why many people in the earth's civilization have gone into hibernation, because they are always looking forward to a better future......
If the future is better, hibernation is worth looking forward to......
Zhang Yuan gradually regained his senses from that confused state, and his pupils returned to focus.
There are bright lights overhead, and a robot nurse is taking care of him.
Then look at the calendar on the wall screen.
[Anpoch 7803.10.12.] 】
【9:30:56】
【56,57,58……】
Little by little, the numbers are beating.
"Have you been hibernating for eight years?" After an hour of being in a daze, his brain gradually returned to normal, and he turned his head to look at the surrounding hospital beds, where many people were in a coma.
This shows that the population of the entire civilization has not yet fully recovered.
There is no way, in the end, a civilization needs people, followed by tools. Without population, even the re-emergence of civilization is no longer possible. There aren't enough tools, it's just a little slower to rise.
"You're sane and healthy enough to choose to notify your family or you can choose to eat a little food. The current pulse is 122 beats per minute, and blood pressure is normal. The robot nurse said.
squinted like this for a while, and when she woke up, she saw Lin Xuanxuan's smiling face, she had received a notification from the robot and ran over in a puff of smoke.
“…… How's it going? Zhang Yuan's voice was a little dry and asked.
"Well, it's going well, the underground city has developed 60%, and the population has awakened 80%! But we're going to expand the population, and when the time comes, an underground city won't be enough...... When the time comes, you'll find out for yourself! ”
"Rest honestly now, don't think so much."
A week later, Zhang Yuan was officially discharged from the hospital, and several engineer brothers first vigorously ridiculed him as "completely useless" as a scientist in social software, otherwise he should have been woken up first, rather than being ranked last.
It made Zhang Yuan quite embarrassed.
It was true that he was the last to come out of the virtual world, and then the last batch to wake up from hibernation, which sounded very useless.
Of course, these old guys are just joking, how can scientists be useless?
Immediately afterwards, some staff led a new group of sober people to visit this newly built underground city by car, like what industrial area, agricultural area, living area, education area, science area, pollution treatment area, etc., there is nothing special, it is an ordinary underground city, the structure is similar to the original.
The community staff brought Zhang Yuan to his residence, which was only more than 30 square meters in total, and the young couple still lived together anyway.
"Now the living area is relatively small, and when the shelter is fully developed, it will be possible to replace a larger room with a larger room free of charge, as in the previous model."
The young staff member is explaining the current property policy.
The house that I was buying before was on that big ice hockey puck, and it was impossible to bring it here, but many people didn't have the money to buy it again.
Therefore, the government department will restore the fixed assets to everyone one to one.
“…… At present, the prices of consumer goods are still relatively high, and we need to implement a rationing system, because our productivity has not fully recovered and we do not have the capacity to produce surplus goods, please understand......"
"No problem, of course! Thank you very much. ”
Zhang Yuan waved his hand, commodities or something, things outside the body, it is normal to suffer a little now.
The wealth he has accumulated over several lifetimes is so large that he can't spend it at all......
Zhang Yuan is an idle person, since he has no work tasks now, he just goes to wander around and see what these old friends are doing.
After stepping out of the surface, the first thing you see is a large circular device like a water cube, which contains tens of thousands of tons of transparent liquid.
“…… This round guy is the right-handed neutrino detector, and it's also our key construction target. It's better to do it well this year, and then do a bigger ......"
In nature, there are no dextranoneutrinos, and even the collision of neutron stars does not produce dextranos.
So it's a pretty good way to communicate with this thing.
If you use conventional electromagnetic waves to communicate, it is a bit laborious, compared to supernovae, it is the difference between fireflies and bright moons, and humans can easily miss these signals.
Li Zhendong licked his lips and said, "After the neutron stars collide, the data will be packaged and sent over there, including electromagnetic waves and right-handed neutrino signals." ”
"However, after traveling 1 light-year, it is not easy to identify these neutrino signals. That's where professional information experts come in......"
Li Zhendong is an information expert, so he was awakened a few years earlier.
Zhang Yuan looked up, and next to the Water Cube, there was also a surface radar with a diameter of ten kilometers, emitting a silvery-white metallic luster, and it had not yet been completely built.
Various tower cranes move back and forth to help with construction.
Judging from the known information, the industrial capacity of the new human civilization is not even one-tenth of the original one......
However, the most difficult stage has already passed, and once a certain foundation is in place, industrial capacity will rise exponentially as a large number of people wake up.
It is expected that the current population limit of 40 million will be reached within 10 years, and the original state will be restored.
"At present, the biggest contradiction of the entire civilization is the problem of the academic structure of the population, there are too many engineers, and the number of scientists is seriously insufficient. In the future, it will depend on scientists. ”
"So the government is already working on expanding the population, which is expected to expand to 100 million people in the next 50 years. Over the next thousand years, it will slowly expand to 200 million ...... 200 million is our current relatively good population. ”
"The best way to compensate for the lack of scientists is to pick talent from the virtual world. Haha, we'll be able to see more old friends in the future! ”
However, the number of qualified transcendents is not that large, and it is impossible to lower the standard arbitrarily in accordance with the principle of preferring shortage to abundance. Therefore, in the future, the proportion of the population of ordinary people will increase, and the proportion of the population of the transcendent will decrease somewhat.
"It must have become more and more lively over the years, it is really a huge change that the new human civilization has never had!"
Zhang Yuan suddenly asked, "By the way, have we notified the Brilliant Galaxy fleet?" They want to get these astronomical observations, right? Or, they've already built these things on their own planet. ”
"Not yet." Li Zhendong frowned, and shook his head slightly: "I don't know what's going on, we have been engaged in industry here for eight years, and they should be able to find out, but the two sides have never communicated!" ”
He gestured to the bright fusion light above his head, which lit up like a small sun.
Even if they are on a relatively peripheral planet, theoretically, the Brilliant Galaxy branch knows that they will be here all these years, and there should be some reconnaissance team......
