"Mr. Chen, it has nothing to do with material welfare."

"In the space age, our productive forces have long since achieved universal welfare, national affluence, and housing without discrimination.

Everyone can apply for one set for free when they become adults, and then they can apply for better improved housing when they get married and have a baby.

Medical care has also been universalized, although after receiving the injection of life-saving medicine, we are no longer free of any diseases other than genetic and psychological aspects.

Education is supported by virtual technology and virtual learning, which is also balanced, equal, and people-oriented. ”

"It can be said that the people under Yifei no longer have any pressure burden."

Facing Chen Yi's inquiry, He Yu shook his head helplessly.

"Since it's not a welfare issue, and at the same time, it's not a burden of pressure from the previous concept, so there must be a reason."

Chen Yi tapped his fingers on the table, raised the document and asked calmly: "It can't be that the lifespan medicine has been injected, and the lifespan has exceeded three hundred years, coupled with the birth of the neuronal transformation drug, the real lifespan is expected to exceed a thousand years in the future."

These young people in their twenties, thirties, and forties have suddenly become 300-month-old and 400-month-old babies. ”

In the past, 300-month-old babies, this was just a kind of self-deprecation, a kind of self-complaining.

Now, with the promotion of the Wing Fly Life Elixir and the birth of the neuronal modification potion, the 300-month-old baby has become a reality.

According to the calculation of 300 years, 20 years old and 30 years old is about the same as the previous seven or eight years old.

If you count the nerve modification drugs and raise the upper limit of neurons, the life expectancy is expected to exceed a thousand years, and thirty years old is equivalent to the previous two years old, and calling a baby is definitely an appropriate name.

However, there is no law that prohibits a 30-year-old baby from giving birth.

Even understands the importance of population, and after entering the space age, after Yifei took over most of the area, a series of welfare awards and honorary awards were also provided for the birth of babies.

However, looking at He Yu's report and the survey data of the document, such a reward of benefits and honors is fundamentally effective.

Except for some areas that were relatively backward in the past, more conservative in their concepts, and difficult to make comprehensive changes in a short period of time, such as Fed South, Camel, Camel East and other regions, the birth rate in other regions is almost zero.

The total birth rate of a few tenths per 1,000 is almost entirely dependent on the flight of these backward regions.

But according to the Fed region, the situation in the home area of the wing.

Chen Yi can foresee that as the living conditions in the Fed South, Camel, Camel East and other areas keep up with the overall planning of Yifei, the conservative concept will gradually open up, and the birth rate in these areas will definitely fall.

"Director Lin has already done some research on this issue."

He Yu did not answer Chen Yi's continued inquiry, but moved to the side and handed the stage to Lin Qian.

"Mr. Chen, this is the analysis report of our External Relations Department."

"With the development of the times and the progress of science and technology, many social contradictions in the past will disappear, and many concepts and burdens will also dissipate, but new problems will also appear in the new era."

Lin Qian handed the report in her hand to Chen Yi and reported with a calm expression: "In response to the sharp drop in the birth rate this time, we conducted an investigation and analysis in the virtual second world.

With the full automation of production, the explosion of productivity, and the coverage of universal welfare, problems and concerns such as housing, education, medical care, not being able to give children a good future, and even bride price, which used to hinder marriage and childbirth, have disappeared.

Instead, another new kind of apprehension and apprehension is spreading. ”

"Concerns about the talent of future generations?"

Chen Yi probably guessed what Lin Qian was going to say.

"Yes."

"In the past, industrial development and production required a large number of workers, a large number of people, coupled with uneven wealth and uneven education, many adults of appropriate age who were married and childbearing, out of the inability to give their children a good future, give their children a good education, and did not want their children to be assembly line workers in the future, to be the screws of society, to become the bottom of the society, chose to lie flat and not marry and have children."

"Now, none of these problems exist."

"There is no need to worry about the education of children's descendants, and there is no need to be a worker in fully automated production, and the old social classes are all refreshed, and the rich and poor are balanced, and the education is balanced."

"But another social class is also emerging, and that is a new class of scientists, scientists, and sociologists."

"In this class, education balance is only an auxiliary, after all, everyone's education is the same as no gap in education, and the test is more of innate talent."

"And talent, this is a hopeless, uncontrollable congenital problem."

"When you have a baby, it becomes a bet with a high probability of losing, which naturally makes people feel worried."

"Most people of the appropriate age to marry and have children understand that their descendants have little hope of entering this class, and they don't want their descendants to be like themselves, and they can only look up to a higher class for the rest of their lives."

"Such concerns, combined with the increase in life expectancy brought about by life-saving drugs, have become one of the main problems hindering fertility in the background that everyone is young and do not need to rush to give birth."

People do not suffer from few, but suffer from inequality.

This is the most essential social experience that mankind has summed up for thousands of years.

If there is no higher class, everyone is the same, so naturally there will be no problem, but with a better class, there is a high probability that there is no hope for you to enter, and this problem and anxiety will naturally appear.

After all, it is not the intention to wait for death to eat, and if there is a better direction, people will instinctively pursue it.

But if there is a better, and you can't pursue better, lying flat will be unavoidable.

"There is no solution to this problem."

Chen Yi rubbed his head.

He understood what Lin Qian was talking about.

It's just that this problem is an unsolvable problem for the time being.

In order to ensure the stable and rapid development of wingflight and human civilization, scientific research is fundamental.

In order to cultivate more scientific research talents, it is inevitable to give scientific research personnel better welfare conditions and social status.

Without better welfare and status, neuropathy will enjoy the benefits of the times while others are enjoying it, while they are bitterly a scientific research dog.

Unless, of course, the ideal person is.

But the idealists are, after all, a minority.

In such a minority group, a very small number of talented researchers can not meet the needs of scientific research.

Although it is possible to increase the number of idealists through education, and even through the technique of ideological stamping.

But there are too many idealists, which is an unstable factor in itself, and if you are not careful, human civilization and even wingflight will be blown to pieces.

After all, no single decision or policy can satisfy the ideals of all people.

The philistine feels that the concept is not in agreement, and can still manage and suppress, but the idealist fights for the idea, which is too fierce.

As for increasing the constraints of the ideological steel seal and limiting the scope of dead ideals, the thinking potential of human beings will also be wiped out, and the problem will return to the original point, and it will be impossible to cultivate sufficient scientific research talents.

"As you just said, talent concerns, scientific research class, this is just one of the main reasons."

"What's the other reason?"

Thinking of this, Chen Yi did not continue to scroll down the report, but asked about other reasons for the collapse of the fertility rate.

"The improvement of the people's knowledge level and the awakening of their own thinking consciousness have suppressed the instinct of reproduction."

Lin Qian briefly explained the remaining reasons that affected the birth rate.

"Okay."

Chen Yi shook his head helplessly: "This is another unsolvable problem. ”

This problem is described simply.

That is, people began to pay attention to the pursuit of spiritual culture and values, thus suppressing the instinct of biological reproduction.

From a biological, physiological point of view.

Reproduction, this is the pursuit of biological genes, not the pursuit of biological consciousness.

Throughout the history of the development of human civilization, it is not difficult to find that every progress of civilization is to get rid of the shackles of genes step by step and improve self-consciousness little by little.

The more developed the region, the more people pay attention to spiritual and cultural resonance, rather than simply complementing each other as men and women.

At the same time, fertility rates in these areas are relatively low.

Human beings exist because of the reproduction of genes.

But the development of human beings is a step by step betrayal of the pursuit of genes.

Perhaps, since human beings abandoned the evolutionary selection of genes and embarked on the road of independent intelligent evolution, the problem of reproduction has been surined.

Merely.

In the past, the level of human civilization was too low, and the material conditions were not sufficient, and this scourge has not yet been highlighted.

But now, with civilization entering the space age and abundant materials, this problem has become completely apparent.

"Do you want to use artificial reproduction technology to enable socialized parenting and solve this birth rate problem?"

Chen Yi didn't look at the final analysis and suggestions of the report, and directly and firmly stated the intentions of He Yu and Lin Qian.

"Yes."

"This is the only way to comprehensively address fertility right now."

"At the same time, according to the analysis of the think tank, this is also a necessary choice for the development of civilization."

He Yu and Lin Qian nodded and admitted their intentions.

No matter what.

The current problem of the collapse of the birth rate of human civilization needs to be solved in a short time.

The longer it drags on, the greater the impact on the future of humanity.

According to the analysis of Lin Qian and Yifei's external relations department and think tank.

The two main problems that hinder the birth rate today are problems that cannot be addressed at the root cause.

Since the problem cannot be solved and people do not want to give birth, then there is no need to regenerate.

If it cannot be solved from the aspects of social structure and spiritual thought, then it is simple to solve it from the technical level.

Whether it is artificial reproduction technology or socialized upbringing, Yifei now has sufficient technical foundation and productivity conditions.

However, the implementation of technology and policies in this area needs to take into account ethical issues and concepts.

But ethics, in the face of the development of human civilization and the continuation of human populations, seems so small.

"Tell me what you think are the pros and cons of artificial reproduction and socialized upbringing."

Chen Yi tapped his fingers on the table, and did not directly say no or agree, but asked He Yu and Lin Qian to share their specific views on this choice.

He Yu and Lin Qian glanced at each other.

In the end, Lin Qian stood up and replied: "In terms of benefits, the first one is naturally to completely solve the problem of human fertility. ”

"With the use of artificial reproduction, there will be no need to worry about the continuation of the population and future generations in the future, and at the same time, the overall planning and coordination of population development will be realized."

"The second benefit is that the Wing Fly Neuron Modification Drug has made a breakthrough, and it will soon be promoted externally when the internal popularization is completed."

"At this time, the use of artificial reproduction technology can make it more convenient to optimize and transform the next generation."

"A human individual who has not undergone neuronal modification and has not implanted a biological quantum brain chip will not be able to understand a data model and complete documentation of Higgs Field Technology for decades or even a lifetime.

"Through this, we can foresee that in the future, with the continuous progress of human civilization, human individuals also need to continue to optimize and transform to keep up with the needs of civilization development."

"In this way, artificial reproduction is not only more convenient to complete the transformation and optimization, but also to collect various data more comprehensively and improve the technology of human transformation and evolution."

"As for the drawbacks of enabling artificial reproduction, there are three results of the current analysis."

"One is the ethical impact, the other is the safety consideration, and finally the fetal psychological growth and thinking talent."

"Ethics don't need to be said."

"If it is safe, just like the pregnancy of human mothers today, pregnant women need to pay attention to the use of various drugs, virus infection, radiation contamination, etc., and the slightest carelessness may affect the fetus, and even lead to premature fetal death or malformation."

"With the use of artificial reproduction, the main body of pregnancy and reproduction has changed from a human mother to a biological factory for reproduction."

"In addition to strict attention to the hygiene management, radiation, and material contamination of the factory, there is a risk that the factory's control system, equipment, and instruments will be controlled externally."

"The psychological growth of the fetus is the premise of obtaining the archives of a number of welfare institutions, collecting more than one million data samples, and then using the virtual second world to ensure that privacy is not leaked, and the actual tracking and analysis for several months has been carried out."

"The final analysis results show that children who grow up in welfare homes are 18.9 times more likely to have psychological problems than children who grow up in normal families."

"The proportion of children with a lower level of talent in art and scientific research is 8.9 times higher than that of children from normal families, and the proportion of children with a higher level of talent is also 4.2 times higher than that of children from normal families."

"However, according to further simulation predictions, the conditions of welfare institutions and socialized upbringing should be improved, and then the perception and discrimination of socialized children in the external environment will be changed through education."

"This aspect of the problem can be fundamentally solved"

Lin Qian methodically told the pros and cons of artificial reproduction and socialized raising.

After listening to Lin Qian's report, Chen Yi nodded, thought for a moment and said, "This matter is too important, I'll think about it first, and you can improve the plan first." ”

"It is best to refer to the previous way of establishing economic development zones and special economic zones when we were engaged in the economy, and carry out a few pilot projects, which will be actually promoted for five or ten years, and then gradually and comprehensively promoted after determining that there is no risk."

"Yes." Lin Qian replied respectfully.

"Boss, the artificial intelligence of the base detection command center suddenly fed back an urgent piece of information."

At this time, Xia Keke suddenly took a report and hurriedly ran in from outside, looking anxious: "The tachyon space-time detector we released detected abnormal space-time fluctuations, the speed exceeded the speed of light, and it was suspected that the curvature of the trajectory was sailing."
