Chapter 538

After listening to Zhang Yuan's story, after a long time, the captain sighed and came up with an objection: "this plan All right

"The biggest question is, will the TOS agree to this risky plan? It has time limits, and there are strict restrictions on what kind of work to be done in what period of time. "

With a smile, Zhang Yuan said, "theoretically, there is no problem. Isn't it in the honeymoon period of the two civilizations? We are conducting a lot of scientific and technological exchanges. We believe that in the future, cooperation will be more and more, and the relationship will become very good in one or two hundred years, or even three or four hundred years. "

"If the No. 17 plan is well implemented, the project will be faster. The biggest advantage is to cut the project time by more than half

"I believe that for the life cycle of the tosian civilization, they also want to complete this plan in a generation or two, and see the birth of curvature technology with their own eyes."

"Their life span is much longer than ours. Our understanding of human beings is still superficial, and it is impossible to predict in advance. Some problems may break out in our civilization because of their short life span."

Longevity has always been a pain point for human beings. The race value of human species is not high among so many interstellar civilizations. Although many life extension technologies have been purchased from the trading market, the average life expectancy has been raised to 500 years.

But there are still some longevity technologies that can't be used for a while and a half.

It's not because the technology is bad. But Because of the existence of virtual technology, people are not afraid of death. Having an excessively long life span all at once will lead to internal social chaos, such as the collapse of social structures such as marriage. These costs are very hard for human beings to bear, especially at this critical juncture, there are not many opportunities for human beings to adjust slowly.

Life span is closely related to the strategic vision of a civilization, which is a big contradiction.

Zhang Yuan deliberated for a while and continued: "in a word, both civilizations do not want the plan to fail. This is also the consensus of both sides, so it's no problem to talk about the plan with a little effort. Of course, we can't tell them our real intention... "

"Even to our members of the Science Council, we can't say what we really mean. Otherwise, it will be difficult for the plan to be passed internally. "

"They tend to choose a more secure option. Human nature is conservative and does not want to change it. At this time, we need to use the fanatical atmosphere within the people to promote the implementation of this plan. "

Yes, the atmosphere among the people is really fanatical. They are absolutely willing to accept some radical plans as long as they advocate that the project time can be shortened by half.

If the civilized senior leaders agree and the grassroots support it, then the middle-level cadres will have to give in, even if they may have great doubts in their hearts.

……

That night, the gray haired captain Ke tossed and turned and couldn't sleep.

The huge psychological pressure lingered in his heart and turned into an invisible mountain, which made him breathless.

When he got out of bed, he found that it was just three o'clock in the morning.

I can't sleep any more

Knead a little red eyes, re dressed, out of the room door. The lighting in the corridor was very dim, only the lights in a few cafes and hospitals were still flashing. Occasionally, a few pedestrians pass by in a hurry, making a series of "Dong Dong Dong" footsteps.

Collet walked into a coffee shop and ordered a cup of "DIBAL" coffee. He tasted it with a little bitterness and a little sweetness.

This is not real coffee, but a certain plant of alien civilization. After grinding, it tastes like "coffee". It contains some antioxidant components, which can delay aging and is conducive to health.

There is no doubt that with the prosperity of the times and the progress of science, people's life has become more and more beautiful. However, with the adjustment of productivity, the price of many things will rise in the future. Necessities such as food and clothing will not change the price, but entertainment products and some luxury goods will certainly become more expensive.

People in this field will be transferred to other positions.

Collet suddenly recalled that period of history.

At the beginning of the earth age, through the long time of 3000 years, where can I drink coffee?

Even eating a little seasoning is a luxury.

However, the original pioneers persisted.

If we cut half of our living resources now, there will be social chaos. Even if it is reduced by 20%, there will still be a lot of complaints.

From frugality to luxury is easy, from luxury to frugality is difficult. From this level, human beings have never changed However, how can we not suffer for such a long time in the future?

After a while, when he was so ecstatic, he came into an acquaintance, Foreign Minister Chen mu.

He was also worried. When he saw captain Ke, he was stunned."Can't you sleep?"

"Yes, I feel a little hungry when I fall asleep."

Both of them laughed at the same time.

After a while, a third person, a fourth person, all high-level officials, one by one with black eyes, unexpectedly came here..

Captain Ke made a cup of coffee for these people and said with a bitter smile, "Mr. Zhang's words shocked me. It makes me think, what is the purpose of our whole civilization Is it to keep long-term progress, exuberant vitality, or to live in a muddle? It will always exist in this universe... "

"Human beings, sometimes, really have to force themselves. Otherwise, you don't know what your potential is

"The fourth level civilization is really not that simple."

They know the true identity of Zhang Yuan and that this extraordinary man was the first captain of the Kunlun fleet. He once vigorously overthrown the oldest family system of mankind and established the "social public support system" on his own.

Now thousands of years down, people have long adapted to the new social system, there is no natural birth of children.

People have lost the idea of raising children themselves.

The exuberant vitality and great mobilization ability of new human civilization are based on this system. However, who can remember the overwhelming opposition in the original meeting?

Now it's time for us to make a crucial choice. When we think about it, we all sweat, as if we were facing the overwhelming pressure.

This kind of pressure, the source is not now, but the future!

In the next thousand years, the future generations will be scolding.

Endless overtime, an aging population, even longer working hours. They are bound to regret the choice.

But after 1400 years, if we really have curvature technology, future generations will be elated by today's choice and thank our ancestors for their hard work.

Human beings are such creatures. As long as they bear hardships and don't eat on themselves, everything will be OK.

"Think about it?" One of the old men suddenly asked.

"Well, there's nothing to think about..."

The ship sighed and looked far away as if he had made up his mind.
