Chapter 457

After listening to Zhang Yuan's wonderful ideas, John exclaimed excitedly, "can quarks? You want to be beautiful! However, this kind of possible scientific fantasy is really beautiful... "

All the people in the coffee shops around looked at it curiously, so that John quickly held back his excitement and his voice gradually became smaller.

They talked excitedly about the changes in humanities, science and technology of the new civilization, the difficulties they encountered, and recalled the past.

John used to be a pessimistic scientist, but now he benefits from new technology and is totally addicted to the vast amount of knowledge. He is full of expectations for the future.

It is expected that more and more technologies will be realized, including nano robots, artificial cells and other highly complex things. They have been stuck for a long time in the past, and now they can move on. In the future trading market, human beings should also be able to gain a lot of new knowledge and peacefully contact with more powerful civilizations.

John also shifted the topic from the technical level to other directions. He recalled his experience in the virtual world and told a few stories. He could not help but sigh: "the reason why we feel it beautiful is that the whole society is still moving forward. There are all kinds of novel things to explore and look forward to the future."

"If we don't make progress, human beings will always fall into the strange circle of internal game. No matter what, it will become bad."

"Yes," Zhang Yuan said with deep sympathy, "there will always be so many loopholes to drill in a world that remains unchanged I have been thinking, is what we are pursuing constantly changing? "

"Just like the heat death of the universe, once in the heat death state, all the atoms are evenly distributed, and nothing is possible.

"What we seek is to avoid this state of eternal stagnation Eternal change? "

John was silent for a while. "You're right, and I hate the constant. A dead civilization will be dead, but a living civilization will remain unchanged. It's unbearable. Sometimes it's better to live than to die. "

Everyone has his own different experience in the virtual world.

However, it is very difficult for people who do not have the ability to think for themselves to return to the real world.

John is undoubtedly one of the best.

"Therefore, as described in the history of new civilization, our first goal is to pursue eternal progress, the second goal is to survive, and eternal progress is always the first goal!"

"Whoever hinders this progress is our enemy."

This should be the common idea of all transcendents.

After a long silence, Zhang Yuan asked, "have you ever met any other old acquaintances? If so, we can have a chat and drink coffee together. Although it's good to be with young people, there is always a generation gap between them and many things. "

"I didn't look for it deliberately. I've probably seen seven or eight of them. We are the first batch of experimental personnel to return. The number will not exceed 100. Don't expect too much. "

John shook his head: "besides, it's been so long. I don't know if they're going back to the world, or if they're not the people they used to know. Well, maybe they're looking for disappointment for themselves. Or maybe they will come back, or maybe they won't, "he said

"When I saw you today, I couldn't help running over to greet you. I felt very happy There's no need to find a psychological burden for yourself. "

Zhang Yuan sighed gently.

Yes, it has been so many years. After so many reincarnations, every aging and death will witness the departure of relatives and friends.

Experience more and more, will gradually see this.

What is the most important thing for a person to live in this world?

It's me!

In addition to their own, no one can accompany you to the end.

Every reincarnation, there are new relatives and friends, new life, if you indulge in the memory of old friends, indulge in the past, then, personal immortality, will be a kind of pain.

This person will be lost in the virtual world, no longer possible to return to reality.

Thinking of this, Zhang Yuan showed a smile: "well, to our new life, cheers!"

"Cheers

With a bang, they gently touched the cup. Zhang Yuan took a sip and joked, "the air is full of philosophy."

"Ha ha, we are all philosophers, but if a society is all philosophers, it can't do anything!" "Society needs more doers," John said

"Doer!"

After the party, Zhang Yuan came home with a little bit of what he wanted.

Habitually turning on the computer, he found that the mailbox was full of scientific research documents, and his colleagues in the group were already enthusiastically discussing the next improvement plan. There are also some letters from scientific researchers in other research institutes. Zhang Yuanding made up his mind and patiently replied to them.It wasn't until eleven o'clock in the evening that I finished replying to all the documents and read for a while.

Recently, he fell in love with one hundred years of solitude written by Marquez thousands of years ago.

The whole book describes the changes in Latin America in the 20th century through a family. People are always lonely, and it is difficult to unify the scattered forces in an effective way. A person with ideals and burdens is often assimilated by the whole society. Just like the fact that Latin America did not rise in the end, the transformation of a society is too complicated.

There is such a sentence: "you hate those people so much, fight with them for so long, and finally become the same as them. There is no ideal in the world that is worth the price of such degradation."

Everyone who has the ability to be complex but chooses to be simple knows the weight of this sentence.

It's also a normal day for him

In this way, year after year, the time from the interstellar trading market is slowly approaching, and the speed of the whole fleet is gradually slowing down.

Zhang Yuan joined the ranks of interstellar diplomats because of his outstanding achievements, but his usual work is the same as before, and there is not much change, except for occasionally joining the personal quality training of diplomats

Through the news reports, we can know that the whole fleet has received the communication information from the outer spaceships of Huantai civilization.

Simple contact with each other has begun.

It is expected that in three years' time, the two main carriers will stay in the void at the periphery of the trading market, and then they, as diplomatic representatives, will take some small spaceships to the exchange.

After all, it's a trade between civilization and civilization. It's impossible for all the people to go out like buying vegetables in the vegetable market. The vast majority of the population will be inside the carrier. Just send some elite representatives.

"There are still three years left..." Zhang Yuan took a deep breath and looked forward to that day.

A great journey finally comes to an end, and I don't know what human beings will finally gain

Occasionally one day, meet old friends, look at each other a smile, drink and enjoy, can be regarded as a small surprise in life.

Just as John said, Zhang Yuan was the one who returned to the real world earlier. After only five reincarnations in the virtual world, he was kicked out by the "West Tower" of artificial intelligence.

And five reincarnations are the minimum standard line. If someone has more than one reincarnation than him, he may be 50, 60 or even 100 years away in the real world.

The whole new human civilization is not ready for the return of a large number of extraordinary people, so over the years, there are no such people as Lin Xuanxuan, Li Zhendong and Ichiro Yamamoto, and Zhang Yuan doesn't care too much. They may still be in the virtual world, adhering to their ideals and beliefs, of course, it may be even worse There is no way to force anything. They can only rely on themselves.
