Chapter 266: Plan ...... Pass!
There will be no discussion in the office for a while.
Zhang Yuan's plan is not only a bit unbelievable, but even a little evil!
Send all the members of a civilization into the virtual world......
And is it still the other party willingly? This kind of thought directly makes people shudder, and even he himself is a little uncomfortable.
Zhang Yuan stubbornly explained: "If you are in that kind of ...... for a long time state, will definitely produce a different idea. There is no joy in life, the mind is controlled by drugs, and apart from the climax of that moment, there is nothing to do. Even its own existence itself doesn't matter......"
"In this case, if there is a world where you can choose the life you want, giving a new meaning, why not enter it? What if it's virtual? If you can't tell the difference between virtual and real, then think it's real. ”
"Of course, all of this is just my calculations. But I believe that this inference is the ultimate choice for a civilization that has fallen into the trap of entertainment...... If we really develop this technology, there is a high probability that this deal can be facilitated by our deliberate promotion. ”
People have already received extremely valuable information in the transaction a few days ago - about the history of the Gliese civilization, accurate to a certain year, a certain day, what some great people did!
Each historical node is divided into a large catalog of several hundred pages, whether it is a former scientist, a professor at a university, or even some graduate students, all of them are involved in this work.
The historiography of the new civilization is not only mathematics, nor is it just the science of prediction, but also a discipline of management about civilization, and it should not be controlled only by a few.
If 10 percent, or even 5 percent, of the entire civilization believed in the subject, understood its specific connotations, knew how to calculate, and strictly followed its instructions, then ...... It can basically be said that the dream of the entire school has been realized, and the entire civilization will have a strong ability to self-adjust, as well as the driving force for spontaneous progress.
"And according to the calculations, it is true that the Gliese people can easily follow this set of paths." One professor grabbed his hair and muttered to himself.
A civilization, except for being destroyed by external forces due to natural and man-made disasters, or self-destruction due to some technology, there are only two real ends in the end!
The first is the road of the sea of stars that develops outward.
Second, it is the road of "brain in a vat" for inward development.
The reason for the formation of the first end point is very simple, that is, what they are now yearning for in the human hierarchy, which is to ensure the low-entropy form of a civilization for a long time, and to have the motivation to keep moving upwards and forwards......
Then, you can only go to the boundless sea of stars. In the boundless universe, there are always new things, greater ideas, and more powerful civilizations......
The reasons for the second destination are complex, varied, and myriad!
Perhaps, like the Gliese civilization, it was controlled by drugs, so that the entire civilization ideology was completely deserted, and it was no longer possible to develop upward; Or maybe it's like the earth's civilization, where the class has been solidified for a long time and has no vitality; Or maybe there was some natural or man-made disaster......
Or maybe the virtual world is so beautiful that it's hard to tell the real from the fake......
As the saying goes, the path forward is always the same way, but the path of depravity is myriad, and as long as it stagnates and develops, it is easy to slowly approach the second destination.
This is the trend of the whole era, so Zhang Yuan thought of such a plan.
This solution has a lot of benefits for humanity, no longer have to worry about war and racial conflicts, and people can get a "universal factory" and get a lot of data on consciousness uploading!
Let's not consider the consciousness upload, how powerful are the 13 universal factories?
As far as the current information goes, a universal factory is more than enough to feed 20 million Gliese people!
This kind of powerful industrial capacity, beyond the technology of the earth's civilization, it is impossible not to be impressed. Moreover, Captain Zhao and Zhang Yuan are confident that human beings will not be led by the nose of the universal factory and repeat the mistakes of the Gliese civilization.
But the people of Goertek are asking for too much money, and they want a stellar-class spaceship in exchange, and other cities can't agree to this kind of trade request, so if humans really want these universal factories, in addition to forcibly plundering them with war, there is only this kind of curve to save the country......
But there are also many people who oppose it, because this plan is really weird. Even between civilizations, there is no need to consider ethics and morality...... But these things still bind human beings.
Zhao Qingfeng shook his head slightly, and suddenly felt that the current civilization ideology also has its own flaws, if it was a capitalist on the earth, he would have ignored it a long time ago, rolled up his sleeves and started working.
He said: "Every life has its own comfort zone, and it is too difficult to get out of it and get to the sea of stars...... Sometimes I want to stay in this star field for the rest of my life, forever. ”
"Another 3,000-year-long interstellar journey is really an ordeal."
"Many of us don't have the courage to do that anymore and are likely to be lazy on this planet forever......"
The gray-haired, somewhat elderly captain always had a courageous, strong and decisive attitude in front of others.
But in private, sometimes he will show a confused and cowardly side.
Yes, people are not steel after all, and even steel can fatigue metal, let alone ordinary humans?
After coming to this alien planet, the pressure is too great, internal, external,
Zhang Yuan smiled: "That's right...... Our group of people has been slowly smoothed out of their minds, and most of us do not have the same ambition as before, and we will have another 3,000-year journey. People tend to stay on the planet and not take risks. ”
"Human beings are creatures born from the earth, and they are genetically deep and cannot fully adapt to the universe...... If you are afraid of the morals you have formulated and bind yourself, even if you have a good opportunity, you will quietly slip away......"
"To be honest, we are a civilization, and there is really no way to directly deal with suspected black technology such as consciousness uploading and virtual worlds, and we must have a civilization to explore the way ahead...... Otherwise, just give up. ”
Everyone fell silent and began the final choice......
The stakes have been made very clear. What is the room for refusal?
Half an hour later, the results came in.
This program was passed!
