Chapter 214
The first route, suppressing the natural population birth rate, is not family planning, but a more tender way.
Want to have a child? Yes, there is no problem at all, and there are even certain policies to support individual childbirth.
But giving birth to a child has to be nurtured. The process of raising a child is not only a personal matter, but also a public matter of the entire society. It requires a certain ability, and parents are not so good.
The youngsters on spaceship are mostly youngsters. Except for some kindergarten teachers, they are basically impossible to have parenting experience, and there is no help from the older generation. The support robot is still in an experimental state for the time being and has not yet been mass-produced. It is impossible to allocate one to each family.
In order to reduce the appearance of unqualified parents, please take a certificate-"Parent Certificate".
According to the regulations, both parents have to take the test, and after the certificate is taken, they can have children.
This kind of natural "political correctness" of course has won unanimous praise from the broad masses of people. After all, the overwhelming majority has no desire to have children. The remaining few people can only accept it by brace oneself, and giving birth without a certificate will be unanimously condemned by public opinion.
are the only ones. If you look up and see you lowered, life will become very difficult if you are despised for a long time.
As a result, these parents found out. The difficulty of the textual research is quite higher than imagined, and it may not be possible to pass the test several times, including the rebellious periods of the young child, when do I need to supplement what nutrition, how to get through the rebellious period, etc... The problem is very difficult.
Some people don’t even bother to give birth when they see such trouble.
The second is to promote eugenics.
At present, the new civilization is thriving. Although the current living conditions have risen a little, there is still no such thing as milk powder. There is not even a single cow, and the cow has yet to be cloned from an artificial womb...
Of course, diapers and pacifiers are also impossible.
Well, anyway, there is no such kind of material conditions. These all are objective facts. The entire civilization does not need these, but it takes time to produce these resources.
In this case, if you still insist on having a baby, you should find a way to overcome the difficulties you encounter...
Especially, the long-term public opinion propaganda makes everyone Formed a natural thinking, "Under the condition of immature conditions, not to give birth to children casually is the basic quality of a responsible adult."
"Too poor, everyone is still digging and farming. "
"I ran for 20 light-years just to have children? Aliens will be laughed to death by you."
"I will die a few years later, so anxious "
In addition, the higher the education level, the lower the willingness to have children. This is also an objective law.
In this way, with the cooperation of the objective environment and subjective policies, the birth rate of the entire civilization is naturally suppressed relatively low.
The sluggish birth rate has made some people of insight jump anxiously, calling on everyone to let go of their lives. But this kind of willingness is not something that can be increased by appealing...Who would like to have ten children like a pig?
After thinking about these objective factors and sorting out his thoughts, Zhang Yuan raised his head and walked into the Conference Hall.
The scientific conference at this time is quite grand. The various data in development are already known to everyone, but they are released in official form.
Captain Zhao solemnly spoke on the stage: "...This year's work mission was perfect, even over-fulfilled. I am very grateful to everyone for their hard work and the silent dedication of the 60,000 engineers on the surface. No Your active labor will not have the normal operation of this society, let alone our better and better life."
pa pa pa!
There was a round of applause from the audience.
"The tasks for the next few years, the first is to develop more cutting-edge technology, Earth civilization has left us a lot of precious heritage, enough for us to enter the real Interstellar Era. The second is to automate all projects When the level is raised, there is still a lot of room for optimization. When the industrial population cannot grow on a large scale, improving automation capabilities is the only way to improve work efficiency..."
"There is also the population issue, a more important issue. Regarding this, every person of insight should be worried..."
"Population has become a key factor restricting our development. . Many projects, we cannot continue, because of the small population. Do you know, what kind of work is the greatest contribution to the entire civilization?"
After a pause for a few seconds, Captain Zhao smiled and opened the mouth and said: "It's not about mining on the surface, or being a scientist, or speaking on stage like me. It's about giving birth to 10 or more than 20 children and raising them, then, These parents are comparable to the greatest heroes in the world!"
Some of the people below couldn't help but laugh. This is just a little joke in a serious meeting.
Captain Zhao continued: "...Of course, human beings are not pigs, and there is no way to give birth to ten at once. The next generation of fertility is not only a major event of civilization, but also individual freedom. So we Forced childbirth is impossible, and the objective environment is worrying. I don’t even have a child. I’m too busy, I can’t help it, and I’m not interested in having a child..."
After saying this, There was a long silence in the Conference Hall.
Everyone seems to have expected what will happen next...
Then, it’s the highlight, to truly solve the population problem!
This population bill should have been proposed by the Minister of Human Resources himself, but this bill is a key content in the history of new civilizations. In addition, the minister’s weight is slightly insufficient. , The popularity is not enough... Maybe once it is mentioned, it will be scolded by the public.
Only Zhang Yuan this level, the prestige is high enough, and the real power figures of the New Civilization Development Department can make a big splash!
Time...it's up.
Zhang Yuan took a deep breath and got up from the stool.
"Mr. Zhang Yuan, I think you should know what will happen after submitting this proposal. If I were you, I would definitely think twice... Its impact on us is really too great. It’s getting bigger."
A female congresswoman from the Ministry of Education suddenly said, "We are really pressing, is it time to use artificial uterus technology to multiply babies in large quantities? Or... just What about the personal selfishness of your whole school?"
Zhang Yuan smiled and looked at her: "I think you know it in your heart that it’s not urgent, I’m just for civilization."
The tone is still very plain.
But in this plainness, the congresswoman suddenly felt a biting cold wind from the remote North Pole.
In the depths of the core of the entire civilization, there seems to be a strong and cold will that is slowly pushing all this. No matter what kind of resistance, it's just mantis trying to stop a chariot.
Feeling this oppression force, she frowns said: "I will vote against it."
Zhang Yuan laughed, but the words were not soft: "You are against it alone. Invalid, we are a democratic society...Of course, you have the right to speak and you can put forward a rebuttal at any time."
He took a stack of documents to the stage, walking steadily and calmly.
A copy of the information is displayed on the big screen.
In an instant, like boiling water, the entire Conference Hall boiled!
"About the use of artificial uterus technology to incubate babies in batches"!
