Chapter 251

For many industries, it is totally different to know that there is such a thing and to really produce it.

The theory of atomic bomb is known to high school students, isn't it chain reaction? But if we want to really produce a nuclear bomb, we don't know how many orders of magnitude more difficult it is.

The core theory of silicon-based chip is "band theory", which is an approximate theory that can be learned by an undergraduate. But how to use this theory to make a real chip needs a lot of exploration and attempts, and a lot of economic experiments.

From the micron level to the millimeter level, and then to the nanometer level, it needs countless investments, talents, and will experience countless failures, but these failures also lay a solid foundation for future development.

Now it's OK. It's a product of science and technology of the second level civilization of the universe!

The second level civilization of the universe, even if the glitzer civilization develops on its own for tens of thousands of years, it may not be able to surpass itself!

So, it's not easy to understand these technologies. Naturally, no one is willing to increase investment and challenge alien technologies. Even there are few talents in this field.

Without enough exploration, it is difficult for glitzer civilization to develop its own high-tech industrial system.

In addition, all industrial standards have been designed by alien civilization. For many standards, reverse engineering is too difficult. The glitzers don't know why they want to design in this way. They just copy them as they are.

Of course, from a practical point of view, there is no problem with alien technology. The science and technology in the database is not fraudulent, from the most basic steam revolution to the internal combustion engine, to the era of electrification and information.

Because glitzer 581g doesn't have any oxygen, they can't even copy the technology inside. Therefore, the main work of scientific researchers all day long is to find products suitable for their own civilization in the database. Naturally, there are few innovations about their own civilization

This kind of invisible suppression is the suppression of the whole civilization itself. But how can you jump out of the situation and enjoy the rapid progress of science and technology?

Only by reviewing and analyzing the whole history can we find this defect.

Naturally, over time, from the ideological level, glitzers have an unreserved trust in alien technology.

The aristocrats buy the high-grade goods directly produced by the omnipotent factory, the common people buy the goods in the database, and only the beggars buy the goods researched by their own nation.

Some scientists once put forward the idea of satellite, but it turned into a laughing stock in the end!

Because there is no such technology in the universal factory, the result is regarded as a fantasy, even if it is ridiculed by peers, and no one will invest The scientist was so ashamed that he almost hanged himself.

"Under the influence of this ideology, it is even more difficult to create an industry that belongs to one's own civilization."

The oligarch, which is composed of a group of warlords, simply can not have the detached vision and broad mind to use the "omnipotent factory" to promote the whole era. As long as they keep their power and wealth, it is enough.

But what can we do?

No one can overthrow this regime through violence

Universal factory advanced huge productivity, almost killed all possible changes!

……

With the passage of time, the output of the universal factory is still accumulating, and the times are still progressing. When social resources accumulate to a certain extent, basically everyone can get rid of the life of the stone age and enjoy the convenience. It's just the problem of more or less poverty or wealth

A set of industrial system with universal factory as the core was gradually born in this planet.

Different from the science and technology tree of normal civilization, this industrial system is quite abnormal. There is a clear distinction between high-end industry, middle end industry and low-end industry. The high-end industry is always high-end, and the low-end industry is always low-end. The national innovation industry is only engaged in low-end manufacturing industry, only serving the production of universal factory.

When Zhang Yuan heard this, he sighed. He deeply knew that this ideology was not conducive to the development of the whole civilization.

Because there was such a strange history in the state of Xia. At that time, the people blindly thought that the industry in their country was rubbish, and the moon in the outside world seemed more mellow. This kind of strange idea, once formed, is really hard to change.

Glitzer civilization is even worse. Its hidden competitor is a secondary cosmic civilization! Capital is profit-making, there is no capital, willing to challenge the universal factory. Even the national level is no exception, because it is impossible to challenge success.

Even This kind of thought still affects them, so that glitzers instinctively believe that alien civilizations are all very powerful, advanced and moral.

"So this civilization can more easily reach a peace treaty with mankind, even if the current mankind is not strong at all. Reality is the light of the second interstellar civilization Zhang Yuan vaguely understood.

Let the topic return toWhen the high-end industry is always controlled by the omnipotent factory, the vast majority of profits must be snatched by the oligarchs who own the omnipotent factory.

However, the tendency of intelligent life to pursue interests is innate. Under the corruption of power politics, the gap between the rich and the poor, and money, the whole society gradually inclines to money worship and bureaucracy in order to curry favor with those powerful people.

There were some people of insight who called for resistance to this trend of thought, but these appeals were so weak in front of the whole era

When he got here, Zhang Yuan was silent for a long time and asked, "well What about Goethe? "

"The political structure of Goethe is indeed different from that of other cities, but if it is the case all over the world, it will be difficult to resist this trend of thought, just more or less."

Zhang Yuan asked, "in other words, do you think that all evils are brought about by the omnipotent factory?"

"No

Ganyaduo shook his head: "there is no sin in technology The evil is the whole civilization itself. If there were no universal factory, we would still live in the primitive stone age. How could we have such a good life now? "

"The whole society is still developing, and the science and technology competition between cities is very fierce. Even if there are such and such problems, in the final analysis, it is not the evil of the omnipotent factory. "

No, it's not right.

Zhang Yuan always felt that something was wrong: "well, will the second interstellar civilization expect this?"

"Trading is a win-win way for both sides. We are not forced to deal with each other. Everything is our own choice Even if the other party anticipates it, so what? It's not the other side's fault, is it? "

Zhang Yuan frowned and didn't know how to reply.

How to say

With the progress of science and technology, people's life has developed from the stone age to the electrification age, with more convenient transportation and new changes in clothing, food, housing and transportation.

It seems that the whole civilization has improved a lot.

But on the other hand, its development potential has been reduced a lot unconsciously. It's just like a child who has been treated with auxin and has grown up a lot, but also has some problems that are difficult to cure, such as osteoporosis and obesity. Until these problems are solved, it is hard to say that it is a normal civilization.

The so-called gain and loss, if only from the perspective of human sensibility, it is really difficult to describe whether the history of the glitzer civilization has become "good" or "bad".

Measuring the "good" and "bad" of a civilization is an important content of new civilization historiography. All kinds of messy complex functions try to quantify people's ideology, life happiness, scientific and technological strength, social organization ability, future development potential, corruption degree and so on to get a specific value.

Zhang Yuan has no way to consider the glitzer civilization for the time being, because these historical processes are still too vague. If they are only described, they are totally inaccurate.
