Chapter 461: Religious Civilization
Seeing Zhao Qingfeng's stunned expression, Zhang Yuan said with a smile: "Of course, this aspect still has to follow your personal opinion." If you don't want to do it, you have to choose someone else. ”
"It's just that other people's cultural products don't seem to be as popular as your works, and the effect may be worse."
For the transcendents who have returned so far, a large part of them are engaged in humanistic work.
A person with different experiences who accepts the baptism of life will be able to create better works more easily. People living in the 63rd century are certainly very different from the real writers of the Middle Ages.
Listening to Zhang Yuan's story, Zhao Qingfeng realized the importance of this task, and could only ponder with a calm face. The work on the integration of the transcendent and the ordinary is also an important work. If class antagonism is created in the future and leads to instability in people's hearts, then there is no doubt that this great project, which has been planned for thousands of years, will fail.
In the end, he could only nod his head: "Alas, there is no problem, anyway, painting is just an amateur activity, as long as it doesn't take up too much time." ”
The two chatted about the specific plans in this regard, and now there are no particularly fanatical star chasers in the whole society.
Soon, the two turned the conversation back to their journey to the trading market three years later. This is the most important thing in this 800-year journey.
After hearing that Zhang Yuan had also applied for diplomatic qualifications, Zhao Qingfeng nodded and said with a smile: "That's great, we can set off together when the time comes!" At present, there are a total of 370 members of the diplomatic team......
"The final list is still being confirmed, and there are about 500 people in total. This time, we humans must be cautious and get as much information as possible! ”
There are indeed quite a few extraterrestrial civilizations that humans have come into contact with. There are as many as 9 people who have officially met near the cosmic strings, and two of them are interstellar civilizations, so they have accumulated a lot of contact experience.
But this experience, compared to what is needed, is still too little and too little.
"Let's go, let's go over there for a drink!"
The two walked into the café and talked and laughed, as if they had returned to their youth.
"You take a look at this information first, it's not a confidential content."
The 9 civilizations that humans have come into contact with, in chronological order, are: Gliese civilization, Bardit, Riley civilization, Taipu civilization, and the 4 low-level civilizations that Zhang Yuan encountered after leaving this world, as well as an interstellar civilization.
These are all formal meetings and exchanges, excluding those of the higher civilizations whose names have only been heard.
"You take a look at the materials first, some of them are public, but some of them are confidential." Zhao Qingfeng sent a document to Zhang Yuan's mailbox.
Zhang Yuan looked at the specific information in his hand, frowned, and said: "The universe is indeed a pyramid-like distribution of low-level civilizations and sparse high-level civilizations......
"The low-level civilizations encountered earlier are all in a primitive state of self-destruction, and there are very few that even give birth to technology. However, the two low-level civilizations we encountered later are already vassals of some interstellar civilizations, and we have to beware of this phenomenon of assimilation. ”
Zhao Qingfeng took a sip of coffee and said a little seriously: "Yes, this diplomatic trip, to a large extent, is to explore the news in this regard. ”
"To us, this kind of vassal doesn't seem to make much sense, it's just some low-level natives that can't even reach the level 0.1 civilization, waiting for them to grow up, I don't know how many years...... But for some civilizations, this vassal is their diplomatic line that they claim to be 'righteous' and even save the entire universe. ”
"Assimilation, and being assimilated, is a terrible thing!"
After Zhang Yuan left this world, the Kunlun Mountain fleet had encountered a total of 5 civilizations, including two low-level civilizations, which had become a vassal race called "Alev Civilization"!
These two lower civilizations, completely different species, are separated by 5 light years, but they use the same technical standards, have almost the same culture, they speak the same language, they use the same script.
And from the ideological level, fanatically worship their own main civilization - "Alev civilization".
They are proud of being inspired by the "Alev civilization".
When the new human civilization encountered the first such planet, it also investigated with great interest what kind of social structure a civilization had been assimilated.
Human scientists feel that it may be that the race value of life on this planet is very high, so it is worthy of an interstellar civilization......
This approach is understandable.
But on the second planet, the low-level civilization encountered is actually the same fanatical mentality, using the same language and writing, and being brainwashed and assimilated without knowing it.
This fact is very meaningful.
Zhao Qingfeng said: "...... Life on the second planet looks very stupid and not smart. The average IQ is only 50, barely reaching the category of intelligent life, and most people cannot understand calculus after studying it for a lifetime. They were able to develop technology, which was a gift from the Alev civilization. ”
"That is to say, the Alev civilization directly allows the low-level civilization to forcibly develop and cross the barrier by giving it technology."
Zhang Yuan took a deep breath and nodded: "To put it bluntly, this interstellar civilization, the Aleph civilization, actually doesn't care how these indigenous barbarians rule their own civilization, and it doesn't matter whether the native creatures have wars, famines, whether they can really enter the interstellar age, whether the scientific foundation is solid, whether the humanistic society is impetuous, etc...... It doesn't matter how high these indigenous people can develop. ”
"The Alev civilization just wants to impose its own culture on these low-level civilizations!"
"The technology that is directly donated is equivalent to the level of a first-level civilization, plus the culture of an interstellar civilization, it is completely impossible for these low-level civilizations to refuse...... And then...... The expansion in exponential form began. ”
There are only two requirements of the Alev civilization, first, to use my technology, and second, to worship my culture for the glory of joining me.
If these two low-level civilizations really grow into interstellar civilizations, according to this unique cultural background, they will also choose to assimilate other low-level civilizations around them in the same way.
Zhao Qingfeng gestured with his hands and said solemnly: "With this repeated cycle, if you say it will be bigger, the entire universe, and if you say it smaller, the entire galaxy will be spread!" ”
It's a weird feeling!
Such a civilization that is fueled by pulling out seedlings must have a very weak scientific foundation, just like a cripple, the scientific and technological tree is incomplete, and the humanistic atmosphere is impetuous, but these civilizations don't matter! As long as you can do your best to become an interstellar civilization and join the main civilization, all the weaknesses and shortcomings can be remedied.
"Religious civilization!"
These four big words jumped out of Zhang Yuan's mind abruptly.
But this religion is not a religion in the traditional sense, but a unique civilizational, ideological assimilation culture.
Zhang Yuan had realized the seriousness of the matter, and he took a deep breath.
