Chapter 10 Technology Makes Life Better
…… At present, the reactor built in your hometown is running steadily, and the output of the first phase of the generator set has successfully reached the expected 3,000MW.
According to the original plan, the reactor will be gradually connected to the grid next year. It is expected to gradually increase the installed capacity to 70,000MW within the year. At that time, the controllable fusion demonstration reactor that has completed the grid-connected work will meet the power supply needs of most areas of the province......
Blue Star's signal is transmitted to the living area through cross-space communication, and Lu Yu is watching the changes in his hometown in virtual reality.
It's easier said than done.
Although Lu Yu had an idea, he hesitated when he really wanted to do it.
So the Silver Star has been staying next to the gas giant for almost three days, and has not yet given an answer.
The biggest gamble of his life had already been practiced by the Horn Clan, so Lu Yu, who had made a lot of money, was more like a winner who was eager to leave the table.
Even if he didn't get involved in this kind of entanglement with other civilizations, Lu Yu could rely on the time-consuming elimination method to find the location of the blue star.
This mentality is very wrong, but Lu Yu, who has won a lot of waves, no longer has the fighting mentality in the small cockpit.
As if aware of such thoughts in his heart, Lu Yu made a request to the base to see the changes in his hometown.
Of course, Lu Yu's proposal was met immediately, and through the real-time image converted into signal transmission, and then transcribed into neural signals with virtual reality equipment, he could descend on the streets of his hometown as if he were in real life.
The first stop was to see the nuclear fusion reactor that was completed in the first phase of the project, which should have been built in major urban areas, because this is Lu Yu's hometown, and a reactor that is enough to supply a province was arranged!
It won't be long before the streets are full of electrically powered cars.
Soon, the desalinated seawater will solve the plight of China's vast water-scarce areas and turn the Gobi into oases and fertile fields.
Soon, wireless charging, drone logistics, and other technologies that had to be temporarily promoted due to high energy consumption will enter people's lives.
Oil will no longer exist as a fuel, but only as a raw material for industrial production.
Pollution will slowly decrease, the environment will soon get better, and the word environmental protection will no longer be a hot word.
Lu Yu looked at the nuclear fusion reactor in front of him, he once mustered up the courage to step out of the cockpit, wasn't it just to see the future at this moment?
The second stop was the newly built general hospital in my hometown.
"Through the information left behind by the leader of the horn tribe, we have created the first generation of genetic resonance devices for human beings, although the limited materials and technology have not yet reached the limit of being able to extend the lifespan to 300 years old."
"Then there's nanorobotics, which can effectively clean up harmful substances in cells...... In particular, toxic proteins in neurons. ”
"We expect to add 30 to 50 years of life to our citizens."
The aging of neurons has always been a problem that cannot be overcome by life extension technology, and nanorobots regularly clean up some metabolic garbage, which will greatly delay the aging of the nervous system. At the same time, nanorobots can accurately treat diseased cells and accumulate harmful substances in cells, which is why gene resonance loops should be used with nanorobots.
"Your parents will be on the list of the first batch of people to receive genetic resonance to enhance life expectancy in China, if you have any relatives and friends who also need it, you can talk to us, and by the way, you can be included in the list."
Professor Mao's virtual images have been accompanying Lu Yu through one location after another, explaining the changes in his hometown.
Professor Mao himself also looks much younger, with fewer wrinkles, fading age spots, and even his hair starting to darken from the roots again, as if he has changed back to the appearance of a fifty-year-old.
"Most importantly, nanotechnology has made many of the incurable diseases we fear the most like a paper tiger at the snap of a finger."
"Quantum computers and nanorobots can accurately target and destroy diseased cells, and cancer and viral diseases will no longer threaten our health."
"Now this thing has another name for a panacea on the Internet."
Slowly, they came to a place full of cyberpunk-style prosthetics, and a seven or eight-year-old girl had silver-white prosthetic legs on both feet, but she had a smile on her face
"Mom! Mom! ”
"I'm on my feet again! I'm running again! ”
"Will I be able to learn to dance again in the future?"
She was running and jumping happily on the ground, like a normal person, and her parents were already in tears.
"Virtual reality technology is very controversial within us, but its extension technology has begun to become popular."
"This little girl had both feet amputated due to an unfortunate car accident, but our latest generation of prosthetics is equipped with quantum chips, and with the maturity of neural signal translation technology, her prosthetic limbs will be no different from normal feet."
Professor Mao paused subtly when he said this: "Hmm......... Maybe it's stronger than normal legs, and maybe in the future, the track and field records of the Paralympic Games will be faster than the Olympic records......"
Technology is eradicating the pain, and perhaps in the near future, all kinds of suffering that plague mankind will disappear one by one.
Lu Yu has witnessed everything happening, technology is making life better, and he seems to be able to make beauty come faster.
To build a fourth-level civilization that built a Dyson sphere is not necessarily to destroy the development of a civilization.
Maybe he relied on the Silver Star to counter the two fifth-level civilizations, and relied on solving the external crisis as a condition to make the fourth-level civilization hand over artificial intelligence and the technology tree of the fourth-level civilization?
The Horn Clan of the second-level civilization has made such a big change in Huaguo and hometown, and the technology of the fourth-level civilization can allow human beings to ascend to the sky in one step and directly open the interstellar era, right?
If it is really because of the Silver Star and intelligent lifeforms that he brought back, causing the Blue Star to be coveted by other civilizations, human beings can also have the power to resist and flee first, and at least they have a choice between fighting and running when the time comes.
The Horned were once rated as a potential civilization in the system, and they even got the creation of a supercivilization on their own moon, and in the end, the entire race was wiped out in the star system.
Taking the history of other civilizations as a mirror, it can be seen that it is not easy for ordinary civilizations to take every step in the universe, and they can become the plug-in of the entire civilization.
"It doesn't look like it's time to be lazy yet."
"Isn't this also about the possibility of returning to the Blue Star?"
"It's not time for me to leave the table in peace!"
After Lu Yu finished such a sigh, it seemed that he had regained the courage to leave for the nuclear fusion device.
Lu Yu, who hadn't left the living area for a long, long time, withdrew from virtual reality and returned to the cramped cockpit again.
"The task of the Dyson ball, we took it."
