At a time when various cultural activities are booming, inside Kunlun Mountain, there is a vigorous handover of the new elderly, due to the large number of people who retire at one time, the handover work is also quite complicated. It is estimated that it will also take three to five years to complete the entire work.

The internal meetings again and again made Zhang Yuan a little exhausted. He was no longer the boy he used to be who could sleep only three or four hours a day. After working for a long time, I will feel tired from time to time, and sometimes I will take a nap, which is itself a physiological phenomenon caused by aging after aging, and it cannot be overcome by simple will.

However, the development of the entire civilization has entered the normal stage, and it is time to hand it over to the next generation of successors, and there is nothing to worry about.

Now that I have shared some of the power in my hands, I finally have some leisure time, and I have slightly recovered from the original "tool man" to my original appearance, which is quite good.

Yes, when the leader of a civilization, most of the time, is indeed a tool man, he can't laugh when he should laugh, he can't cry when he should cry, and he can only hold back any emotions in his heart. He must represent the absolute justice of civilization and the way forward!

However, it was too tiring.

Even steel can be metal fatigued, let alone living humans.

Life after retirement will undoubtedly be much easier, and it is okay to do something you love, sleep in, or play video games, especially the recently popular virtual space games. Zhang Yuan was originally a person who liked novelties very much, and if he had put it in the past, it would have been impossible to have time to experience these fresh products, at most he would have tasted them.

Zhang Yuan looked at the stars in the distance, as well as the pale blue Taipu star, and said softly: "From these civilizations we have encountered, it can be seen that there are civilizations in the universe that are more unfortunate than us, and there are also civilizations that are luckier than us. ”

"From the perspective that we are already an interstellar civilization, we should be considered a lucky part...... From the probability of the mountain, at least 90% of civilizations, weaker than us. ”

Several young people behind him, some of them were Zhang Yuan's successors, and some were young vice captains, all of whom did not speak.

Zhang Yuan asked again: "What do you think is the most unfortunate thing about human beings?" Or rather, what is wrong with human civilization? ”

"Isn't it perfect...... The lifespan is too short. Dr. Li Cheng of the Secretariat replied, "Compared with the Badit people, the lifespan of human beings is too short, and most of them are not very smart and difficult to adapt to long-distance starry travel. ”

"In the Middle Ages of Discovery, the time that humans could endure solitude was only two or three months. It took two months for Columbus to discover the New World; Magellan's circumnavigation took three years, but he made at least 17 stops, which is equivalent to one dock in two months. No more, the sailors had to rebel. ”

“…… It's the same with the Great Interstellar Age. If it weren't for the fact that the Kunlun Mountain society was large enough and forcibly shortened the time of feeling through hibernation, this kind of interstellar travel would be too boring for human beings. From time to time, outer space workers develop a fear of the wilderness, and even after training, there is a chance that this is possible. ”

Generally speaking, the population of Kunlun Mountain is more than 10 million, and the long-term sober life is about 1 million, which can be regarded as the size of a medium-sized city, so everyone will not be lonely.

Add to that hibernation, that is, a 50-year interstellar journey, and people only feel it for five years, so it's quite acceptable.

Dr. Li continued, "The short life span not only leads to the short peak of human beings, but also hinders the development of science and technology. Although the peak period of intelligence is long, the peak period of creativity is not long. ”

"Ideologically, people prefer to settle on a planet. Therefore, we can only build a huge mothership like Kunlun Mountain to gain a sense of security in our hearts...... In fact, the settlement model has a higher probability of falling into mediocrity. ”

In contrast, the Badit are much superior, they only need a large shuttle, 20,000 people, they can survive a long time, they face the same thing, they will not get bored, a game like Tetris can be played for decades. That is, the trigger patterns of happiness mechanisms in the brain are different to a certain extent......"

Yes, the length of life has a great influence on the ideology of humanity.

Taking the earth's civilization as an example, in ancient times, human beings got married and had children in their teens, and that was because they could only live for thirty years.

As a result, after the average life expectancy rose to 100 years, there was a significant increase in the number of men and women in the elderly.

After the average life expectancy rises to 300 years, there are not even many people who are married. Everyone wants to have more fun and make more trouble when they are young, who wants to get married as soon as possible and restrain themselves for three hundred years.

As for having children...... That's something that I don't think about until I'm 200 years old.

What, parenting for the elderly? Where did this primitive man come from?

The above is the ideology of the earthlings. Human ideology changes with the economy as well as with lifespan. If everyone can live for three to five thousand years, it is very likely that they will not even have any interest in having children, at least not at the age of twenty or thirty.

If there are still a lot of years to squander, who wants to start a family so early?

Of course, the ideological changes brought about by the increase in life expectancy are very complex, and they are also the focus of the historiography of the new civilization. The thinking of long-lived and short-lived species is very different.

After Li Cheng finished speaking, Zhang Yuan smiled undeniably, and then nodded: "That's very good." ”

Immediately afterwards, Ye Junchang, the chief of staff of the military, replied: "I think that the human body is too fragile, especially the nervous system, and human beings will always succumb to their own desires...... Some habits of ancient times that were conducive to survival are still influencing us. But the advantages of ancient times are not necessarily advantageous in modern times. ”

"These habits of life are essentially a very simple set of philosophical concepts, that is, the doctrine of survival and reproduction, which exists without any thinking, without education. As a result of primitive philosophical outlooks, many students do not have even the most basic modern philosophical outlooks, even though our education system already places great emphasis on them. However, they still don't know what the meaning of their existence is, and they just follow the flow of society. ”

"If the social atmosphere is good, they will naturally be so-so, and if the social environment is not good, they will soon degenerate."

Zhang Yuan smiled in his heart, Ye Jun is often a typical representative of the radical faction.

This faction is not very satisfied with the genetic philosophy of human beings and the driving force of their ascension, and has formed its own set of doctrines under the historiography system of the new civilization.

The core content of this set of doctrines is that according to the current development model, although human beings are walking in the upward channel, they still have their own limits.

Human evil is often for no reason, from childhood can be seen, some people just like to bully others, engage in destruction, and some people just like to pursue energy-saving, indifferent to what happens in the outside world, living in their own small world.

Even though some vices have been corrected through acquired education and various chip technologies, many things are still hidden and have not been completely eliminated.

In other words, cold and serious content can't do vulgar entertainment, and the more vulgar it is, the easier it is to spread widely, precisely because of this kind of reason.

However, genetic philosophy involves the most core content of human beings, and it is not something that can be changed if you want to.

Zhang Yuan nodded and said, "So, we first need to make up for the IQ problem through technology and control our desires...... Also, the driving force behind revising our lives, we don't know how to modify it? Modify genes? It's hard to do. ”
