696 The Earth of Quiet Change
The effects of the major power outage have slowly receded. The world's various productions have been restored to the age of electricity, and communications have begun to recover.
However, some high-energy physics experiments are still quite affected. For example, particle collisions, nuclear fusion experiments, and so on. After the great power loss, the transition phenomenon of matter in high energy was discovered by some experts in physical experiments. However, at this time, this technology has not yet been put into practical use. Therefore, the current aerospace industry still uses chemical energy rockets to carry out cargo transportation on the ground and in outer space.
###
At launch sites around the world's equator, several large Saturn-like spacecraft are launched into space every day. This was unimaginable before a major power outage. Before the power failure, the world's most powerful country used the power of the whole country to squeeze out the large spacecraft technology of the Saturn V, and only launched a few times. And now so many launches. Depends on three reasons.
1: World unification - a large-scale reduction in global military spending. Before the power failure, all kinds of armaments were guarded against each other and did not produce additional output value. Military systems have a lot of manpower and resources to sustain these massive systems. And now that the war is over, the East and West have developed a unified economic policy and a way of managing the world. There is no need for dozens of aircraft carriers around the world, there is no need for hundreds of submarines, there is no need for a huge standby nuclear arsenal, there is no need for intercontinental missiles, and there is no need for bombers and fifth-generation fighter plans that are completely used in combat.
2: The cost of starting the industrial production chain has decreased - the more any industrial product is made, the more manual work can be replaced by the production line. To build 10 ICBMs, you need to go up and weld them yourself, but to build 100 of them, you need to directly build an automated welding system. You don't have to build this thing, it's hard to build a high-precision lathe. The main thing is that there is no need to pay for it. And now with the increase in rocket launch missions, it is necessary to spend money.
3: Global cooperation. In the past, Europe, Russia, the United States, and China each pursued its own space program, and at the same time, each was on guard against the other.
Before the major power failure, the rocket launch bases of several major powers in the world were built in their absolute defense circles to prevent hostile countries from using electromagnetic interference to destroy the success rate of rocket launches. (Although no country has done this in peacetime, everyone has torn their faces when they are preparing for war)
And now, more than forty rocket launch bases are being built in equatorial locations such as Oceania, Africa, etc., and are planned here in the same way as a bus station. Forty rocket launch platforms share a global system of ground-based ocean observatories. (Rocket launches require a large number of ground observation stations, for example, when Chinese rockets are launched, the rocket center is constantly reporting that "the first stage has been successfully shedd", "the second stage has been successfully shedd", and "has entered the ionosphere", which are the national observation stations and then uploaded to the national center.) )
Now the data of the global observatory is networked. (In the past, it was feared that the rocket data of other countries would be known to enemy countries.) Rockets from all sides of the Earth Alliance can be guided by ground platforms around the world.
###
The rapid development of rocket technology is a dividend brought by world peace. This has allowed the Earth's space program to move forward for at least a hundred years. If it develops normally, any major country in the world will have to increase the frequency and scale of its launches. What is lacking is not technology, but a 100-year strategic plan for such infrastructure.
Human beings finally don't have to be like crabs in the back basket, you clamp me, I clamp you, they are trapped in the big back basket of the earth. The technological changes brought about by such large-scale launches are exponential. In the past, astronauts were experimenting and being studied, but now they are actually carrying out some large-scale construction activities in space. Build a space city. Build a space lab and build a material factory suitable for production in a zero-gravity environment.

However, in such a vast era, for ordinary people, it is still the life of ordinary people. After returning to the ground from space and re-energizing cities, everyone is still commuting, communication is still mobile phones, and people are still building roads on the streets, and there are no robots to replace human labor. The overall life of the people is similar to that of the first half of the twentieth century. Not much has changed. Even at first glance, it is not possible to see any sense of the future in this era.
Everyone is still holding their mobile phones and looking down at the news, complaining about the hard work in restaurants and hotels.
Yes, this world is like a power outage for ordinary people, and now the call is coming. Everybody's still under the same pressure as they were before the power outage. The state ceases hostilities, and military spending is reduced to zero. Nothing to everyone. Military spending has weakened, but the state treasury is still throwing the same money into space, and it has not turned into welfare. Not only is there no welfare, but everyone even feels the depression.
Because before the big power failure, it was upsetting that entertainment information was gone. Everything fell into peace. Because after the great power outage, the country's economic policy controlled the flow of money. And there is no money inflow. The entertainment industry can no longer be as buzzy as it was before the big power outage.
##
First of all, it must be emphasized that the entertainment industry cannot be said to be a harmful industry. The birth of entertainment has extraordinary significance.
Looking back at the ancient history of China, the earliest germ of entertainment can be traced back to the birth of "music". History has elevated the birth of music to a very high position. In the sense of the development of civilization, the birth of "music" also plays this role.
Because the human mind is not a stable thing, emotions fluctuate and change. In the real world, human beings must wait to engage in production and creative activities. For example, the most primitive agricultural civilization needed to sow seeds in the spring and harvest them in the fall. And in the meantime there is a waiting time. This kind of waiting time is not something that humans can pass the time by sleeping, even in the interstellar era, hibernation, and the state of waking up after hibernation takes a certain amount of time to adjust.
The human psychological mind will accumulate anxiety and negativity in waiting, and "happiness" is to immerse human beings in a sense of order in the time they need to wait, and reduce the accumulation of bad information in waiting. After the waiting time is over, you can immediately devote yourself to what you need to do in good spirits. If you wait too long, you can kill the new area where people do one thing. This is the meaning of "music" being created.
When ancient China, a tribe created music. It means that this nation has become good at farming culturally. This is because farming is a long-term plan compared to safari, and farming needs to wait. Don't wear it out while waiting.
In primitive times, the meaning of "music" was created, which can be compared with the technology of the hibernation capsule in the space age of traveling between planets. It takes a few months from the Earth to Mars, and a few months of time can make people go crazy, not to mention people's eating, drinking, and Lazar consumption. The hibernation pod is to preserve the body, and in the era of safari to farming, "music" is a technology tree that preserves healthy thinking.
##
"Music" is the ancestor of all entertainment industries, and the meaning of the birth of music should also be the fundamental meaning of all entertainment industries.
The inspiration and passion for human creation will not be exhausted with waiting. Be able to put into production with enthusiasm and ideals when needed.
##
But when a large amount of money poured into the entertainment industry, the essence of the entertainment industry changed, which was originally an adjunct to human production and life. A lot of benefits make a lot of people eat it. It has become a life-saving straw for his life's life. This deviates from the meaning of the birth of 'music'.
##
In the wake of the power outage, countries in the East and West around the world have planned their economies to drain the cash flow that is pouring into the entertainment industry. And these cash flows, before the big power failure, so that the world's human beings have to pay for it.
The price of a brand-name garment, the same fabric, the same design, when the entertainment trend is tasted, can soar several times the actual production cost. And even a bottle of drink has a high added value. The products that consumers spend a lot of money on are actually produced by machines and low-wage workers, and the price of these daily necessities is much higher than the actual cost with the promotion of entertainment.
In fact, in the current era of technology, that is, clothes, drinks, jewelry, and a large number of other supplies, in fact, there is very little room for valuable innovation. However, each of them is carrying out low-value, or even value-free innovation. A large amount of social wealth flows.
##
And now under the new economic system.
The market clothes style is fixed in 400,000 types, and after entering the information, you can get customization.
The number of beverages was reduced to 400. Jewelry can be designed on its own and then manufactured in an automatic machine.
Even 3D gold and silver lines, a large number of basic products are fixed.
Very few people will not find the right fit among the 400,000 kinds of clothes, and very few people will be obsessed with drinking more kinds of drinks. I will drink 400 kinds of drinks and still feel that I am not enough.
But the world's surplus of service industry design styles can far exceed what you need, and will scramble to choose a business spokesperson, with propaganda as if brainwashing, telling you that you must need, and if you don't need it, you will lag behind the trend. It's a kind of information hypnosis that makes you feel like you're missing out on something if you don't buy it.
##
The essence of MLM is also like this: to use information to promote the value of things that were originally below the cost price. It's just that MLM is sold to a small number of people who are obsessed with money, and this kind of advertising packaging hypnotizes the whole society.
##
Before the power outage, the government could not find a new economic growth point, and in order to secure fiscal revenue, it allowed the flow of wealth in the entertainment industry.
The current work of the Earth Federal Government is focused on industry, in order to maximize the wealth of society, in a series of heavy industries. Ensure the development of the space industry in order to respond to future crises in the universe. Therefore, the policy guidance is directly blocked in the policy and flows into the cash flow of the entertainment industry. In other words, there is no need for advertising for daily necessities now, and there is no need for spokespersons to increase popularity.
This not only makes people before the big power outage suddenly feel that the world around them is no longer so lively before the big power failure.
Before the power outage, TV dramas were inserted in commercials. Garbage TV dramas are flying all over the sky. Now these things that used to pass the time are gone
##
Of course, the entertainment bust is nothing to this world, because there is a new focus that will attract everyone's attention. - Spirit Stacks. Now a creation in which the whole of society is engaged in individual attention.
This timeline, which was inadvertently constructed by the first generation of civilization (Earth civilization) (Reiko World), was not used at the time. And now it is being enjoyed by the civilization of the earth that has crossed another timeline.
