Zhang Yuan saw that Ding Peng, who had been imprisoned in the bureau, was walking slowly in front of him, as if he had gained a little weight because he had eaten too well.

He couldn't help asking, "Ding Peng, have you studied hard in the near end?" ”

"Huh?" Ding Peng hurriedly turned around, a little at a loss. I don't know why, he always has an inexplicable fear of Zhang Yuan.

Learning, of course, is learning...... It's just that I still can't keep up with my peers.

Ding Peng has no way to enjoy the unique pleasure of learning, unless he installs some special chips in his head that can control pleasure, but as a person who has traveled from the old era, he has a natural sense of rejection for bionics technology.

Zhang Yuan sighed slightly and asked, "Is this brand-new society not as happy as you imagined?" ”

Ding Peng didn't know how to answer, and finally sighed: "It's not that I'm unhappy, it's just that I haven't fully integrated into it." ”

Aside from his initial curiosity, he never seemed to be able to keep up with the so-called times. Especially the recent big news: the whole civilization is ready to watch the neutron star collision up close, which is indeed very curious, but it is a little difficult to understand that it has caused a national carnival.

In previous times, he paid no attention to these things at all. He doesn't care who won the Nobel Prize, what kind of high-tech has made a major breakthrough.

What does cutting-edge science have to do with him Ding Peng, it's not as attractive as a new mobile phone.

Not only him, but most of the people around him, including various media, do not pay attention to these either. Even if there is a media release of technology news, it does not have many clicks and does not attract attention. You can't make money without clicks, unless it's to ridicule some famous scientists for "old cows eat tender grass", there will be clicks, and there are a lot of scolding comments below, which is really the so-called human nature is evil.

But now...... Even if you play a game, the fair channel is full of technology, which is the most powerful neutron star collision or supernova, etc., and they will quarrel while talking, and then simply surrender angrily, what is this?

Ding Peng's knowledge in this area is insufficient, and he doesn't know what to talk about when chatting with his peers, and he only knows a rough idea of the neutron star, what kind of exotic substance, he doesn't know at all...... In this way, there is always a feeling of being out of place with the world.

The life of this society is indeed very rich, and there are some basic welfare benefits, but everyone has to work to live a better life, such as medical services, life extension services, bigger houses, service robots, electronic products, etc., all have to cost individuals to continue.

Of course, it doesn't cost much, but only if you put in your own hard work.

Ding Peng raised his doubts.

Zhang Yuan said with a smile: "What you said is true, our society is already very rich, and it is completely able to make everyone richer, rich to the extreme." But no, because the quality of the population depicted in the communist stage has improved dramatically, and we still haven't done it thoroughly. ”

"The so-called 'population quality' does not refer to intelligence, but to the driving force of progress, which may not be able to be truly achieved until the fifth level of civilization is reached."

"When a person lives in the world, he always has to have some goals, but most people can't find them, so the meaning of the government's existence is to set a goal for them."

Ding Peng was thoughtful.

In this society, although there is no obvious class difference between people, there is still a chain of contempt, and people advocate intellectual labor more than manual labor.

In the chain of contempt, the lowest person is called the "outcast sunker", that is, the one who gives up on himself and even gives up on himself.

Ding Peng once visited the lives of the "outcasts", who basically lived to be seventy or eighty years old, or even died of old age at the age of sixty!

This fact simply shocked him!

In this society, most people, in their seventies and eighties, look no different from those in their twenties and thirties, and can play basketball, football, running, and jumping very healthily...... Even if you have a sweet love affair and start a new family, no one will criticize anything for it, only the best wishes.

As a result, this small number of people, at the age of seventy or eighty, are not old, the wrinkles on their faces are like hills and ravines, and various diseases have arisen in their bodies......

Then he left this world happily, as if he had embraced some cult.

These people are actually normal, they know that they are wrong, and then they will educate the next generation with a smile: "You see, I am only 70 years old, my teeth are loose, I have rheumatism, and when the air humidity is high, I will have pain all over my body. ”

"It's not right for me to do this, you must not follow me."

However, he knows that he is wrong but does not repent, except for playing games and eating, he has no other wishes, and is isolated from the world of normal people, forming a very strange small society.

The government department provides all the daily necessities very humanely, all of which are free things, so that they can live a good life like this, and if there is a serious problem, they will be responsible for the treatment of doctors...... Until the body is completely exhausted, he enters the virtual world.

The law stipulates that no matter how low the contribution to civilization is, it is negative, there are still five reincarnations, which is the right of every citizen.

Even, they died of old age of their own volition!

They are very fanatical about believing that after dying, they will be able to enter a better virtual world and enjoy five more beautiful reincarnations. Perhaps, after five reincarnations, they can be resurrected again, and when people don't die, it's not the end!

It's just whimsical!

Black technology and virtual world technology are still slowly corroding human beings.

Ding Peng now knows what the virtual world is all about, well, it sounds true, reincarnated into a wealthy family, with a little golden finger, it is not difficult to eat fragrant and drink spicy food, and he can play with women or something, how is it much cooler than waiting to die here!

In this kind of place, it is impossible to play with the opposite sex even if you have money, and it is not good to have status, and enjoying the five reincarnations is too attractive to them, even if there is no way to resurrect it, it is worth it! Compared with the long cycle of the virtual world in this life, it is just a very short period of time.

However, no matter how you say it, he, Ding Peng, is still a person with normal three views, and he instinctively feels that this is wrong...... Although the heart is also longing, the actual action is another matter.

Zhang Yuan patted Ding Peng, who was in a daze and didn't know what he was thinking, and comforted: "It's actually nothing if your academic performance is not good, not everyone is suitable for studying, and the most important thing is to have a motivated heart." ”

"There are a lot of jobs in our whole society, industry, services, and entertainment, don't think that the entertainment industry is bad, the entertainment industry is an important part of spiritual construction. Humans are not robots, they need to rest and relax. ”

"Actually, we have some very interesting work here, for example, to select excellent cultural products from the virtual world, such as movies, animations, games, etc., if you can judge whether these cultures have a positive or negative impact on the whole civilization."

"This kind of judgment is either good or good by the senses, and it requires some mathematical knowledge that is not too complicated."

"There's also some work on building virtual worlds, which is also very interesting, but it requires imagination."

Zhang Yuan chattered a lot, if it weren't for this guy who reminded him of a fat otaku friend he had met in a virtual world, he wouldn't have bothered to say so much......

Seeing Ding Peng, who was still there in a daze, Zhang Yuan sighed softly.

Once upon a time, it became more and more difficult for ordinary people on earth to adapt to the current society.

This is the times......

The era of strides forward.

If you don't adapt, it will leave you behind.

Far away, left behind!
