Chapter 557
Think about it, if a person can retire early after one hundred years of work, or two hundred years of work, instead of the current retirement age of 70% of the average lifespan, then People's grievances will not be so great.
Zhang Yuan's conversation turned, his eyes seemed to have traveled across the corridor of time and fell on everyone present. "But I am here to implore the next captains and leaders of various departments to prevent the implementation of this plan. Any bill on the virtual world must be cautious and careful."
Conference The generals and leaders in the Hall are all representatives of the new civilization school. After listening to these words, they were all taken aback, and then looked towards the female captain.
None of them had watched this video in advance. Perhaps it was classified information that only the captain could access.
The female captain has been opposed to this plan in some previous meetings...
at first, they did not understand why they opposed it, but after a while After thinking about it, I gradually understood.
Sure enough, Zhang Yuan smiled and explained: "Why? Because virtual world technology is a black technology. Do you really think we have complete control of it?"
p>"We have developed a huge number of virtual worlds, carried out the transcender project, and even screened some talents in the virtual world. It seems that we have used this technology well..."
"Are we really in complete control of it?"
"My answer is: no."
"Many people are still tempted by it. Our social ideology has shifted a lot, and we are not even afraid of death."
"Our past population, the standard for entering the virtual world is: when the body ages to the limit, it reaches a certain level. In order to enter the virtual world, this is a common cognition that has been cultivated in long-term practice. It has been accustomed to the general public, and it is also their basic cognition."
"Human beings are cowardly and cowardly The creatures have a bad life in this life, and they will look forward to the next life. They think that the next life will be more satisfying. This is also the attraction of many religions."
"Our virtual world technology There are similarities and similarities."
"Therefore, some people play with their cleverness. They abandon their longevity plan and spend their lives like this attempt nothing and accomplish nothing. It is to enter the virtual world as soon as possible. In our era, they are called the "outcast", or simply called the "sinkers"."
"I believe that in your time, There are still such people, and there are a lot of them."
At this time, everyone was staring at the screen intently, and their breathing seemed to be stagnant.
Zhang Yuan is right. In this era, such a population is indeed much larger than before.
"However, our human beings, the purpose of living, is to finally enter the virtual world? Absolutely not the case, it is just the "sinker civilization" we despise. So we must build a greater The goal is to reject the temptation of the virtual world."
"In the past years, many congressmen proposed to relax the relevant standards. Some solutions are actually very tempting, for example, in the virtual world for a long time. Take a vacation."
"Or squeeze the population into the virtual world, abandon the fleshy body, and pack it away, so that you don’t need to endure the aging population... it sounds wonderful."
"But these plans were judged very harshly by us and rejected."
"If we can change a little today, we can change a little tomorrow, and the day after tomorrow, we can change a little more. Principles are no longer principles."
"The long river of time can magnify any butterfly effect infinitely, so that in the distant future, a huge storm that we cannot resist will be formed. A single great man is impossible to stop. This kind of storm! The only thing we can do is to prevent the formation of this storm at the source."
"So, this standard is a matter of principle, a principle that has been practiced in the face of black technology for a long time. The problem should not be simply changed!"
Zhang Yuan said word by word: "Even if you are now having a very difficult life, you must stick to your own principles!"
All the people present looked bitter and sighed. They have done this so far.
Someone once proposed a corresponding plan...
However, in the meeting, it was not passed.
Loading a large number of people into the virtual world, abandoning the body, and packing away, it sounds simple and easy, and it solves the population problem and the problem of insufficient transportation in the future.
Actually? It is a big trouble to cover up a little trouble.
This is well understood. First of all, there is an ethical question: Are these people who enter the virtual world dead or alive?
Many people think that these people are still alive, so after arriving at the destination, these people are released again, and the fertilized eggs must be hatched again, equivalent to a younger body.
However, returning to youth in the real world should be the right that the elites have after passing the transcender assessment.
Why does an ordinary person own it?
Some people say that special circumstances should be treated specially. These people have struggled for such a long time, and it’s okay to regain their youth. The extra lifespan is just a special case.
But in fact, no one can guarantee that the so-called "exception" will only happen once.
When the population returning to youth accounts for half or even the majority of the total population, society will change. What do they think when they are old again? Will they continue to demand special cases and return to youth?
Do they conform to the transcender ideology?
How strong will this political force be and what adverse effects will it bring?
This is the so-called big trouble in the future, to cover up the small trouble in front of you, is an unwise choice. People have passed the difficult times now, but the future will be in trouble.
Use the virtual world to provide people with long-term vacations. This policy is the same, because it is difficult to balance it. Now the quota for each adult is 15 days per year. Once it is opened to 30 days, 40 days, happiness is indeed improved, but who knows what kind of troubles will be in the future?
Zhang Yuan was silent for a while in the video and said: "On the other hand, the rapid population iteration plan is contrary to our future longevity plan."
"We humans must adapt to longer and longer life cycles to be able to better adapt to this universe, instead of suffering a little setback or misfortune, hiding in the virtual world and starting a new life."
" The reason why the average lifespan of human beings is controlled at 500 years old is because the current ideology of human society is not able to adapt to the higher and higher lifespan. The marriage system is almost abandoned, but we have not yet found a more stable society System."
"Actually, according to the current technological level, this per capita lifespan can be improved a bit, I believe you know too."
"Introduce the population into the virtual The world, equivalent to, greatly shortens the average human lifespan, which is tantamount to abandoning the'longevity seed cultivation plan', picking sesame seeds and losing watermelons..."
"Everyone wants to enter the virtual world in advance to enjoy it. How should it develop in the future? Even if it becomes a Level 4 civilization? What can a Level 4 civilization of 500 years of lifespan do?"
"Everyone generally works for one or two hundred years, and then goes to the virtual world. Once Forming social trends, forming habits, how should this kind of thinking be reversed in the future? It is difficult and difficult, so just don't open this hole."
Zhang Yuan spread his hands, said with a faint smile: "So, my friends in the future, in order to deal with future crises, since we can't directly load the aging population into the virtual world and iterate the population quickly, what should we do? There is only another route. : Let those who want to leave leave."
