As a result, the foreign exchanges in Donghai city began to decrease significantly, the Internet was full of comments on spray, and the number of tourists also decreased significantly.
An inexplicable sense of superiority appeared in the hearts of Donghai residents. Under the planning of Zhang Yuan and others, they actually feel superior... Members of the organization celebrate with each other. In fact, this situation is not very good. At least Donghai city has been saved for the time being.
However, Zhang Yuan deeply knows that the so-called exclusion must establish a long-term sense of superiority, otherwise it will not last for a long time.
What's more, another city that prohibits "cherry blossoms" is teetering without their sense of superiority in Donghai city.
A city cannot struggle with a world.
Zhang Yuan wrote in his diary: "our city is too small. Under the influence of xenophobia, the population is decreasing and the immigrant population is almost stagnant. This is not a good phenomenon."
"At present, the population size has been sharply reduced to 1.5 million and is still decreasing... The stagnation of the population is a great hidden danger."
……
The seventh year.
The second city that originally banned "cherry blossoms" did not form a wave of populism. It began to abolish the original law and reopen "cherry blossoms", leaving only the remaining "Donghai city" in the whole world.
This is another major blow to the internal members of the organization.
Even with the slow migration of the population, Donghai city is in a precarious state.
Ideological exclusion means that population inflow will become more difficult. If regional discrimination and other immigrants, including some excellent immigrants, are also discriminated against, then the population who wants to settle in this city will be much less. Who is willing to be discriminated against for no reason?
On the issue of public opinion in this regard, even Zhang Yuan can't control it. Populism is such a dangerous thing that it is impossible for him to control everyone's thoughts in Donghai City, which is too difficult to investigate.
Many local people can't stand the long-term curse war. The population flow in the world is very simple. Just make a report to the robot society. No one knows where you come from or where you go
More and more people choose to flee this city at the cusp of the storm. After all, most people just want a peaceful day, not despise others or be despised by others. It's good to say that for a long time, no one can stand it.
In the robot public care system, the number of babies born is determined according to the current population.
If the population of the whole city becomes smaller, it means that the population of other cities becomes larger. Then there will be fewer babies born in this city, which will ensure that the total number of births of the global population remains unchanged.
"Donghai city" has fallen into the dilemma of less and less population
The eighth year
The ninth year
Zhang Yuan led all scientists to try to crack the code of robot society and disintegrate the social system from the deep roots. Members of the organization defected again. These scientists are unwilling to overthrow the existing system. They think Zhang Yuan's radical plan is not feasible.
After Zhang Yuan made great efforts, he suddenly found that the so-called robot code is actually a part of Pangu's own code, and there is no possibility of cracking at all. The virtual world is equivalent to a low-dimensional cage. If he can crack the code, it is equivalent to directly breaking through the virtual world, which is almost impossible.
The dawn of victory has never appeared. The best result is not to let yourself retreat, but no matter how much effort you make, you can't move forward any step, and it's impossible to spread your thoughts to other cities.
Year after year, the whole world has not improved, but has become worse and worse, which can not help but make everyone fall into internal doubt.
People without enough faith left the team one by one
……
The twelfth year.
"... I just went to the climbing camp of Mount Everest. There are really fewer climbers there than before." Ma Mingtao walked down the subway station with a travel bag on his back. He wiped the sweat on his face and sighed: "in other cities, I can't even say I'm from Donghai city... Regional discrimination is becoming more and more serious."
"... they are playing games made by us and watching novels created by our city, but when they hear that it is people from Donghai City, if there are no robots nearby, they are about to fight. It's like an enemy of life and death. Hey, what's this? "
"But fortunately, our city has persisted to the present, and finally there is a place to stay."
"How are you doing there?"
Listening to Ma Mingtao's story, even Zhang Yuan himself was a little confused, but he soon perked up and whispered, "several more experts left the team. They just want a peaceful life... Some people give up, some people still insist. The dawn of victory never appeared. Failure should be a high probability. "
"Really? Someone will always go. " Ma Mingtao put down his backpack and sat on the chair at the subway station. "Only you... Will insist on being the enemy of the world. 1.1 million people to fight more than 3 billion? "
"However, I feel more and more that you are right. Only when you go to more places can you realize the different changes in the past few years... The cultural output of most cities has stopped, and some drunks have fallen on the road. Although there were drunks of this kind in the past, there are more now. They can't control their emotions. They drink too much when they drink. "
"And that kind of girls... You know, they like to sit on the chairs in the park and eat sugar. Eating a little glucose can make your body tremble slightly, which can be easily identified. "
"As long as you say hello to them, you can easily go to the hotel. In the past, you can't imagine such a thing. Under the magnification of cherry blossoms, the psychological pleasure mixed with shame and sin is more intense than eating a little glucose... "
Zhang Yuan said with a wry smile: "many of our men in Donghai city were attracted to the past... Beautiful little girls pasted upside down on the door. No one doesn't like it. Therefore, the outflow of population will be more and more, especially some newly graduated students, who leave for other cities as soon as they go out of school. "
"But is that really good?" Ma Mingtao sighed in a low voice. After so many years, he is no longer the young man in his twenties.
When there are enough places to go, there will always be a series of thoughts.
"Man is like a beast, full of low tastes. Dream is a word that only belongs to human beings. Other animals have no dreams. What is the difference between people with dreams and people without dreams... Sometimes when they return to Donghai City, they will feel the subtle tranquility. "
Ma Mingtao was silent for a while and asked, "what are your plans next?"
"Let's go. Don't think so much first. Go home!" Zhang Yuan patted him on the shoulder and walked in front of the road.
The sun set, the burning clouds in the sky looked very quiet, and the sun was about to leave. But the next day, it will rise on time and never break the appointment.
Back home, Wang Nana cooked a table of dishes. The four members of the small family had their own thoughts. They hadn't had such a meal together for a long time.
After so long time, the two tortoises, which have been raised since graduation, look like the size of a washbasin. They can eat a lot of vegetables at a meal.
However, in the 12 years since the emergence of "Cherry Blossom", the world has changed greatly.
There are no heroes in the world who can turn the tide, nor can Zhang Yuan.
Wang Nana ate and couldn't help crying.
Everyone was silent and didn't speak.
