Chapter 775: A New Civilization (Two in One)
"I really like the way I am now, and I always have a sense of anticipation in the face of the unknown. If you really revise your thinking because of this, there is no problem! ”
"Curiosity, to be precise...... I once read a book about a creature called a demon who is cold and ruthless, has endless life, and exists to satisfy his curiosity. ”
Li Zhendong is looking at this yellow dwarf star in the astronomical telescope, its age is about 4.5 billion years, it is still a relatively young star, and the specific data of the surrounding planets have not yet been released. However, there are several planets located in the habitable zone, where there is a high probability that traces of life can be found.
Zhang Yuan nodded, "Yes, hemispheric civilization has found its own way, but we humans have been limited by something, and human beings have not dared to take this step for a long time. The more you think about it, the more you don't know how to move forward, how can human wisdom be foolproof? It's better to go straight to the past. ”
Li Zhendong said: "How are you going to do in the Unreal Laboratory?" ”
Zhang Yuan sighed: "Theoretically, our technology is close to maturity, and we can bypass the limitations of gene philosophy by modifying memories and values, and then establish a new value system, upload our thinking to the computer, and realize silicon-based transformation!" ”
These techniques were summed up by combining the extensive experimental experience of hemispheric civilizations. If we hadn't encountered this crazy and bold civilization and given mankind 10,000 years, it would have been impossible to get rid of these memory tampering methods. Because the whole research process is too difficult, and too many hemispheres have been sacrificed.
It is difficult to achieve the current step by relying solely on indigenous experiments, and the objection from within the human race alone is enormous.
Li Zhendong nodded: "...... In fact, I think that the so-called direction of progress and the great goal of civilization do not need to be recognized by everyone in the new human civilization, and now the entire civilization is more than 900 million, and the population of 1 billion will soon be 1 billion, and one person can drown us with a word of saliva! ”
"What is justice, what is evil, whether eating dog meat is civilized behavior, these messy topics debate for three days and three nights can't figure it out, in this case, do you want everyone to vote for it? Impossible! ”
Since the hemispheric civilization has taken a crucial step, the upper echelons of the new human civilization have faintly generated more thoughts.
Some, like Li Zhendong, feel that it is impossible to unify the minds of all mankind.
Whether it is the pressure of the external situation of the galaxy or the high-intensity competition within the alliance, it is all prompting major changes in the new human civilization.
As soon as possible, as soon as possible!
"If you really can't accept it, maybe you really want to split civilization...... What do you think? ”
There are some radicals who have already begun to prepare for this, and the new human civilization does have such radicals, who are able to sacrifice everything for the progress of the entire civilization.
"If you can not split, try not to split, that will hurt your vitality."
Zhang Yuan sighed, shook his head, and fell silent.
Human beings are no longer as barefoot as before, not afraid of wearing shoes, launching an Earth Age ship, and splitting into a sub-civilization.
The technology of the fourth-level civilization requires a large population to maintain. Becoming a Level 5 civilization is not so simple, and the operation of the Unreal Lab alone requires the support of a large number of talents and material resources.
Even if a small number of radicals succeed in splitting up a completely new civilization, the population will not be enough, and the whole project can only be considered successful unless the radicals can divide most of the property and population of the new human civilization.
It doesn't make much sense if it just splits out a spaceship like the "Earth Era", or only a few million or tens of millions of people.
"Moreover, the current interstellar situation is not the same as before. It's not a wise thing to do. ”
After pondering for a long time, Zhang Yuancai said: "We can't be the same as the Alev civilization, and we can't forcibly assimilate them without accepting the same ideas. If you can accept the transformation, then accept the transformation, and if you can't accept it, then you will not be transformed. I think these two kinds of thinking can coexist, an alliance, even aliens can tolerate it, tolerate some compatriots who don't want to be transformed, there should be no problem! ”
"The only difficulty now is the question of how to transform the mind. Deprived of some affection for sainthood? ”
The current huge social impact is actually a link that was planned when the hemisphere civilization was accepted into the alliance.
Revising one's mind is tantamount to killing the current "me" and giving birth to a new "me".
The first step is the question of death, when a person's way of thinking changes radically, is he considered dead? Even philosophers can't come up with a reason, and ordinary people are even more panicked about it.
Second, the new "me" needs to be defined by human beings themselves, and the definition of this step is also very difficult. It is difficult to integrate the opinions of the people within the new humanity.
However, modifying the philosophy of genes is a systematic project, and it will not work without the support of the people.
Therefore, at that time, the high-level of the new human race thought that it would be difficult to get out of this difficult step by relying on its own internal factors alone. It was decided to borrow some external forces, that is, hemispheric civilizations, to carry out external stimuli, so as to be able to twist the people's hearts into a rope, and anyway, when the time comes, they can only move forward.
I just didn't expect this day to come so quickly.
Now the people can hear arguments everywhere, and the example of the hemispheric civilization is really in front of them, and this stimulus is really too great, even greater than the stimulus of the Alev civilization!
Because the Alev civilization itself is much stronger than humans, and the hemispheric civilization is just a little brother following behind......
This is like the period of earth civilization, when a group of poor people in the countryside went to work in the city, and when they saw the original local tyrants, they would only feel envy and jealousy. This emotion is not strong, because the other party is originally a local tyrant.
But the same wage earner, suddenly there is a worst person who seizes the opportunity and becomes the same local tyrant, then the stimulation of others will inevitably be greater. Some people will work harder, while others will have evil thoughts under strong jealousy, and the nature of human beings has never changed for thousands of years.
Most of the people in the new human civilization are still willing to work hard and not let this little brother catch up.
Now people have 500 to 1,000 years to accept this fact more quickly, either to make changes as soon as possible, or to be someone else's little brother in turn.
[Change! Change! We must change, and if we don't change, we would rather die! 】
This is a post published by Ma Mingtao, director of the Bureau of Key Administration, which has a lot of content and has received a lot of likes from netizens.
Some of the people who don't think it's a big deal have already started to spray.
Yin and Yang are weird and hat-capped: "Hehe, the sink who doesn't want to change, garbage." ”
There are also those who believe that such an act betrays humanity: "Abandoning the path of humanity is tantamount to suicide!" ”
There is also a discussion about the age-old topic of "what is human".
Anyway, no matter what, you can spray.
[It is strongly recommended that the values be made into modules, which can provide everyone with free choice, for example, you can freely install a diligent template, and you can install a liver explosion template......]
This is the original eternal advice of the science fiction writer, and there is a whole bunch of people down there who are urging him to change it.
"yes, at first, Eternity was too lazy, with so few updates, and asked for leave at every turn. It would be nice to be able to load the diligence template. In this way, he is happy to code, and we are happy to watch. ”
"Author, I want to read 100,000 words a day. It's best to finish it today. ”
"Strongly agree that templates can be loaded freely!"
"The more you burst your liver, the happier you feel, you know?"
Looking at the rumors on the Internet, Zhang Yuan smiled bitterly, loading the so-called template, you have to modify the thinking framework before you can do it, and you have to have an existing order.
In the original human thinking mode, it is difficult to shoehorn a template into it. Even if you can really cram in one template, you can't cram in the second or third.
In this way, in the midst of a noisy quarrel, the alliance fleet has approached its destination......
……
Hemispheric civilizations are busy crafting new institutions, celebrating the carnival of 367 memory templates for the birthplace; The new humans began to quarrel over the matter. People's attention has been distracted a lot, and they are no longer looking forward to new discoveries as before.
However, surprises are always born unintentionally, and the astronomers of the new human civilization are still working diligently, without being delayed by internal political affairs.
They were surprised to find that the geography of this planetary system was very strange - there were two large planets, next to each other, almost in the same orbit!
This is like the twin relationship between the Moon and the Earth, and in this newly discovered planetary system, one of which is about 1.1 times the mass of the Earth and the other is 0.96 times that of the Earth, with an average distance of 1.2 million kilometers.
The most important thing is that these two planets are in the habitable zone, and both have a lot of water!
One is blue and the other is red, like two gems of different colors, floating quietly in the universe, unusually beautiful.
"Discovered two possible planets of life at once? Interesting, this is so interesting! If civilizations were born on both planets...... Oh, it's even more interesting that civilization was born at the same time! ”
"In the sociology of the universe, if two scientific and technological civilizations are born at the same time, and the level of science and technology is about the same, it is easy to give birth to more advanced civilizations in the fierce competition between them."
This discovery has slightly diluted the heated discussion within civilization and diverted some of the attention of the people.
"You want to be beautiful, it's possible to give birth to life on two planets at the same time...... But at the same time, it is almost impossible to give birth to a scientific and technological civilization.
In the observatory, a female worker said with a little sentimentality: "The birth of civilization is only the last second in the history of evolution." The birth of civilization means the end of the natural evolution of the planet, and the fate of most species is in the hands of intelligent civilization...... There is a risk of mass extinction. ”
Another boy giggled and said, "Don't say that...... The planet never cares about the life and death of intelligent life, and must not take intelligent species too seriously. ”
"Before the birth of intelligent species, all life was eaten and fed on the planet. After the birth of intelligent species, life is still eating and eating with each other, but there is always the possibility of exploring the truth of the universe. That's all there is to it. ”
Just as the poets were sighing with emotion, a young man suddenly shouted, "Hey, don't make any noise. Look what I found, there's a black spot here...... A black dot! ”
"It can't be their spaceport!"
His voice grew louder and louder, and he said with his hands dancing, "Haha! There is a civilization here, a civilization that has entered the space age! We have finally met a smart civilization! ”
Everyone hurriedly followed his fingers, and sure enough, in the photo, a small black dot appeared near one of the planets.
This fact quickly got everyone excited, and being able to photograph it with a telescope showed that this guy was indeed not small.
An artificial satellite, which is only a few meters in diameter, cannot be photographed at all.
"Maybe it's just a big meteorite? Don't be too happy! ”
The young man quickly calculated for a while, and said in a positive tone: "It must be a space port, because the location of this black dot is located on the Lagrange point of the two planets!" I can guarantee it! ”
Everyone calculated, and their expressions moved.
The Lagrange point, also known as the translational point, is one of the five special solutions to the restrictive three-body problem in celestial mechanics. A small object is under the gravitational pull of two large objects, at which point the small object remains essentially stationary with respect to the two large objects.
Building a spaceport, on the Lagrange point of the two planets, is a very, very good choice.
In general, the chance of a large natural meteorite appearing at a Lagrangian point is too small...... Almost negligible.
Therefore, there is a high probability that it is a smart civilization...... And it's a smart civilization with a spaceport!
This news quickly spread throughout the alliance, passing by 4 yellow dwarf stars, people once again discovered a smart civilization, and a civilization with aerospace technology, it was a huge surprise!
Some people put aside the debate for a while, curious to explore its specific history and culture, and see if it can bring some reference.
Yes, the way forward, it matters!
If there is enough potential, people also want to absorb some excellent scientists as a subsidiary civilization.
Of course, no one can be sure whether the detectors of the Alev civilization have assimilated this civilization. Therefore, we must be more cautious in all our actions, and we must not make a big show.
……
"Dear New Human Friends, we are not really interested in the cultivation of subordinate civilizations, and we think that the current way of development is very good...... But if your civilization needs it, we have no objection. The road to a fifth-level civilization is rugged and long, and it is indeed necessary to find some references...... Even if these civilizations are more low-level, they may be instructive. ”
"If there is danger, we will also join the fight, please don't worry."
During this meeting, the leaders of the hemisphere civilization were very kind to make their own suggestions, saying that their civilization was too busy to participate in this operation, as long as the human beings sent them a copy of the investigation report.
Because of the birth of the 367th memory template, a major turning point is taking place within the hemisphere civilization, and a large number of related internal affairs have to be reformulated, and all kinds of messy trivial matters make them really exhausted, and they have no energy and interest to investigate other alien civilizations.
In the eyes of the hemispheres, anyway, the Kyushu Battle Star belongs to the new human race, and the trading market is also a system of free competition and self-responsibility, so how many subsidiary civilizations are cultivated has nothing to do with the hemispheric civilization......
Anyway, it's not a hemisphere cultivation, as long as the new humans themselves can control it.
But if they are really in danger because of the investigation of other civilizations, they will still join the battle and will not back down because of this.
It's a very friendly commitment.
And the new human Fang naturally gave the other party a face, saying that he would not always investigate here. Anyway, the whole fleet will have to stop for rectification and maintenance, and if the maintenance of all the battle stars is over, it will start again, and there will be no long-term delay here.
In this way, after all the decisions were discussed, the pioneer exploration force quietly set off, and soon, it would bring first-hand information to the people and say hello.
