Chapter 1396

The day of the press conference.

The hall 1 of Jinling space launch center is crowded.

Reporters of different colors stand here, almost filling the originally spacious conference hall.

In order to leave enough space for the interviewers, all the cameras, whether automatic or manual, are uniformly arranged on both sides of the conference hall, leaving the middle of the conference hall empty.

"Do you think academician Lu can cope with such a big scene?"

Standing next to Director Li, the young man in formal dress looked around a little surprised and muttered to himself.

As secretary of the office of the Secretary General of the science and Technology Bureau, he was originally the spokesman of the press conference. However, since Lu Zhou promised to attend by himself, he became a substitute.

Hearing his secretary's words, director Li laughed.

"What can I do with it? You're kidding. I'm afraid that guy has seen more big scenes than me, and many more lively ones. Let's not worry about him for this little scene. "

The clock on the wall is on time.

In everyone's expectation, the land boat in formal dress came to the stage.

In the face of the whole audience staring at their own eyes, Lu Zhou's expression cleared his throat as usual and said in a steady voice.

"Good afternoon, everyone. I'm the chief designer of the office of land boat and manned fire boarding."

"Originally in our arrangement, I smiled lightly, and the expression of Lu Zhou continued with some pondering.

"Do you have anything to ask for your former employee?"

"Of course! However, I did not ask such a question out of her former employee's identity, just because of her question, which is also what all of us are thinking. "

The white reporter stared at the boat and sped on.

“…… As we all know, China has made outstanding achievements in the field of space and intends to expand the existing achievements to the distant Mars. However, apart from the waste of resources and empty honors, this space race doesn't seem to precipitate much. "

"Ms. Xu pointed out in her article that there are still many people living below the subsistence line in your country, many of whom have not even made planes. Do you think it really has practical significance to develop space technology in China -- "

interrupted this reporter's speech, and Lu Zhou answered his question in a rhetorical tone.

"Have you ever been to Los Angeles?"

Reporter: " Of course, it's one of the biggest cities on the west coast. Of course I've been there. What's the matter? "

Lu Zhou: "I've been there, and I've had the honor to take the subway there once. I would like to ask if you have considered when you sent astronauts to space, and there are many homeless people, not to mention flying, even living is a kind of suffering. "

There was an awkward expression on the reporter's face.

Realizing what the boat might say next, he quickly turned the subject aside.

"Of course There are also our own problems in our country. As a journalist, of course, I will reveal them honestly. But isn't it China that we are discussing now? "

"There is no doubt that you are the most influential scholar in China and even in the world, and you have made remarkable achievements in your field! But just like the soul torture sent out by Ms. Xu in the article, have you considered the social problems that your research may bring, such as poverty and unemployment? "

"Or are the three examples mentioned in her article, in your eyes, unworthy of happiness or even the right to live?"

To the sharp eyes of the white reporter on and off the stage, it was almost predictable in Lu Zhou's heart that this guy was mostly premeditated.

However, even if we know this, there is no accident or tension in the land boat.

It's also a tradition for American journalists to ask about something that makes people laugh and laugh.

Looking at him with a smile, Lu Zhou gave his answer in a tone of understatement.

"To be honest, I didn't think about it and didn't care much."

There was a commotion at the press conference.

Even the white reporter opened his eyes. It seemed that he didn't expect that Lu Zhou would go so directly into the trap he set in the question.

He even thought about the headline of the New York Times tomorrow when he watched the noisy press conference.

Seeing that the scene was a little out of control, director Li was worried. At the same time, he looked crazy at the boat on the stage, and at the same time, he pulled the Secretary beside him. He wanted him to go to the rescue site and get academician Lu down.

However, Lu Zhou didn't see it at all, ignoring director Li's eyes.

After a pause, he continued.

"Just like now, you expect me to be a great man.""To solve all your troubles, prepare steamed bread and bread for you when you are hungry, cut it into slices and bake it when you are too lazy to do it, and it's better to put it into your mouth and watch you eat it..."

Looking at the reporter's deep expression on his face, Lu Zhou said rudely.

"But it's impossible."

"Technology is just a tool to create wealth, and it's just a tool to create wealth."

"There must always be others who study new sociological theories, study new relations of production and ways of allocating resources, and lay a theoretical foundation for the new system. Because our social scientists know that how to distribute these wealth is the best way to solve the problem of inequality. "

"However, no matter how you divide the cake, if you want to make everyone full, productivity is the premise of everything."

"With the development of science and technology, backward production capacity will be eliminated, and jobs will change, but job opportunities will never disappear, but will reappear in a more dignified and creative form. Our society will protect those who lose their jobs due to industrial transformation, provide them with free training, unemployment benefits, and guide them to find their own place in this society. "

"If you can't understand what a more decent job is, you can turn to your history books and compare North America in the 18th century with North America after the millennium. I believe you can find the answer you want from history. And if you think that lithium sulfur batteries, controllable fusion or the birth of quantum computers and space shuttles only deprived people of their work and made no sense in building your Utopia, then I can only regret your stupidity. "

"So why do I say that I don't care about the questions you're talking about."

"One is not my research direction."

"The second is that I am confident that people in the future will solve these problems."

"As for my bravery, it's not up to you or her to question it."

After a pause, the boat continued.

"This trip to Mars."

"I will lead the team myself."

The moment the voice fell, it wasn't just the reporter who had asked the question before, whose face was full of shock.

The whole conference hall 1 was blown up by the noise
