At the global regional conventions, the debate between the surface and the underground continued.

Just like the debate between the Earth faction and the spaceship faction at the beginning of the Wandering Earth Project.

At the end of the day, they're talking about the same topic.

Which way is more suitable for the continuation of human civilization?

This is an eternal question for coalition governments to ponder.

At the meeting, the regional delegates expressed their opinions, and although the underground faction currently has the upper hand, there are still many supporters of the surface faction who argue with reason, and no one can convince anyone for a while.

With such a contentious argument between the two sides, it seems that the main agenda of this conference is not something that can be resolved in a single meeting.

However, if we do not decide on this major strategic issue first, we will not be able to continue much of the work that follows.

After all, rebuilding the land surface requires a considerable amount of manpower and resources, and the resumption of normal economic activities involves a series of legislative procedures such as opening up monetary policy.

If no agreement can be reached on this issue, the rest of the conference will be discussed in a small and insignificant agenda.

At the same time, a large number of people on the Wandering Earth are also paying close attention to the results of the discussions at this conference.

They all hoped that the General Assembly would come up with a proposal that would convince the majority, not just a resolution that had been passed by a few votes.

This time the agenda is about the lives of all of them, whether to return to the surface and rebuild civilization, or to stay in the dungeon to escape the dangers that may arise in the future.

No one can stay out of it.

Just when the delegates of the conference were still arguing endlessly and could not come up with an exact plan, Qiao Lu silently walked up to the stage and stood on the rostrum in the middle of the conference.

At this moment, there were still only a few people who knew Qiao Lu's exact identity, so when they saw a young man in his twenties suddenly standing on the rostrum, they couldn't help but be shocked.

It's not something that ordinary people can stand on, why can Qiao Lu stand there?

Even Luo Feng didn't expect Qiao Lu to suddenly come to the stage, there was no plan for him to speak today.

What does Qiao Lu want to do?

For a moment, all eyes were focused on him, and the regional representatives, who had been arguing endlessly, also quieted down, curious about what this mysterious young man wanted to say.

Luo Feng hurriedly gave Qiao Lu a look and asked him to go down first, now was not a good time for him to reveal his identity.

After all, Qiao Lu has only been appointed as the new permanent representative for a long time, and his foundation is completely unstable at the global regional congress.

For him personally, it would be best not to say anything for the time being.

Otherwise, there will be a large group of reporters questioning whether the permanent council has a sense of apology when Qiao Lu takes office.

But Qiao Lu did not flinch here, but straightened his chest and announced to the world:

"Delegates, people, hello everyone, I am Qiao Lu, the representative of the permanent council, and I also serve as the special envoy of the coalition government and the army general, and I hope to come up and say a few words to you."

As soon as this remark came out, it immediately caused a sensation among the delegates of the conference. They had all heard of the name Qiao Lu and understood what force he represented.

But seeing Qiao Lu Zhenren, they were basically the first time.

The media who were allowed to enter and report on the scene of this meeting were simply going crazy, and they all quickly locked the camera on Qiao Lu, for fear of missing a word he said.

The delegates present also almost held their breath, wondering why Qiao Lu would stand up at such a special moment, what did he want to do?

What kind of change will he make?

Qiao Lu took a deep breath and calmed down, and then began to speak:

"Delegates, I can understand that after so much suffering for human civilization, it is not an easy task to give up the relative comfort of life underground and return to the surface to rebuild human civilization. As many have said, the Wandering Earth is currently in a state of emergency, our crisis has not yet been resolved, and returning to the surface means unforeseen risks, as well as leading to greater casualties in a crisis event. ”

These are the opinions put forward by the previous congress delegates, and they are also the fundamental reasons why the underground faction opposes the return of human civilization to the surface.

Only being alive is the most important thing, and everything else is a floating cloud.

Qiao Lu continued: "But we also have to think about the question, can hiding in the dungeon ensure the continuation of our civilization? Are the challenges we face in the future really something that can be solved by a single dungeon? ”

For those who don't understand what Earth Crossing is all about, it is true that dungeon fortifications are sufficient to deal with most disasters and crises.

However, as a navigator, Qiao Lu knew that for the opponents who might encounter through the plane, most of the time choosing to live in the dungeon was no different from the ground.

In this infinite world, there are many opponents who have the ability to destroy the entire planet, and when encountering these enemies, can human civilization still rely on hiding underground to survive?

What can really be relied on is the hard power of a civilization!

"The situation has changed, and we are no longer facing the predictable helium flash of the sun, but the crisis brought about by other cosmic civilizations at some unknown time and to some extent. In this case, what we need to compete in the future is more about the hard power of civilization! And not how well our underground fortifications are being done! ”

"We should realize that the Wandering Earth is not only a dangerous ship, but also a super mothership for us to conquer the sea of stars! Thinking about the development we have made in the past few months, human civilization has one foot in space and has become an interstellar race. ”

"Human civilization has once again ushered in a golden age of development, and at this time, choosing to continue to stay in the dungeon will lead to the inability to open population restrictions, the continuous shrinkage of living space, and the difficulty of developing a large area of agricultural development, which will become an obstacle to the continuous progress of human civilization rather than a shelter!"

Qiao Lu's words have also been proven by practice.

Although the Wandering Earth has encountered many crises and disasters in both the Avatar world and the Transformers world, human civilization has not stopped, but has made great progress.

The level of science and technology is constantly improving, the ground environment is constantly improving, and even the people's living standards are constantly improving.

Being able to choose to return to life on the ground is also a major manifestation of the progress of human civilization.

Whether or not we should embrace this progress is the central question of this conference.

"So the real question is not whether humans should live underground or on the ground, but our perceptions determine whether we are a group of pessimistic and lost outlaws, or a space civilization that is actively advancing with our homeland! When we know what our attitude is towards the future, we will know how to make choices. ”

Whether the Wandering Earth is a dangerous ship that can be abandoned at any time, or a super mothership that leads human civilization to conquer the sea of stars, is only a difference in human thoughts.

If it is the former, there is no need to waste resources to rebuild the surface, because that is something that will be discarded sooner or later.

If it's the latter, then rebuilding the surface is a brick work for the mothership.

Of course, this also means more unforeseen risks, and human civilization will encounter more unimaginable challenges, which are not necessarily conducive to the continuation of the race.

But it's also an attitude.

"Finally, I would like to conclude with a quote from the past."

Qiao Lu stood on the rostrum and issued a final declaration:

"Give civilization to the years, not to the civilization to the years!"

It is true that there is nothing wrong with digging deep holes and accumulating grain, but when the opportunity comes, it is also time to decisively choose to bring in and go out.

Development is the last word, this is the concept of the new era!
