An eerie calm filled the scene. Everyone understands that this is a choice! Of course, no one can tell what the outcome will be after the decision is made. But obviously, there must be a difference!
Heisong.Zi.Xin.Guangguang looked at Zhang Jingyuan for a long time before slowly speaking: "His Majesty Taizu is confident that the Chinese civilization will directly face the seventh-level civilization? And three seventh-level civilizations?"
< br>
"I don't dare to speak or boast until I have truly directly witnessed the seventh-level civilization. However, China will not give up on any citizen! And we have proven it with actual actions!" Zhang Jingyuan sat down slowly, but his eyes were filled with confusion. He didn’t leave Black Pine, Purple, Letter, and Light, “I can only say, if you can’t compete now, then use a hundred, a thousand, or even ten thousand years to develop, and then crush it!
It doesn't matter if it's not better now. After all, we have only developed a space civilization for less than three thousand years; and the original three level-7 civilizations have been developed for hundreds of thousands or even millions of years.
But we have the confidence and the ability to realize our dreams. ”
Zhang Jingyuan told the truth, but revealed strong confidence! Yes, China is now only a fifth-level civilization, but the door to a sixth-level civilization has been opened; and the development time of China's scientific and technological civilization is less than 3,000 years! This is a very scary number! Three thousand years can catch up with others' development history of 30,000 years or even 300,000 years!
Black Pine, Purple, Letter, and Ray gritted their teeth and turned to look at the companions around them. They all quickly communicated with their eyes. Finally, Black Pine, Purple Letter, and Ray of Light turned around and spoke firmly, "Your Majesty Taizu, when the time comes, our safety and honor will be handed over to the empire."
"Very good!" A smile finally broke out on Zhang Jingyuan's face. "I believe you will be glad for today's choice in the future."
"Yeah..." Black Pine, Purple Letter, and Ray nodded vigorously. What else could I say at this time? If nothing else is said, if you refuse now, although you and others should not be in any danger, you will definitely be put under house arrest. ! For a former seventh-level civilized citizen, he would be under house arrest in a small place. For example, it is really unacceptable to be in a city or even a planet without being able to leave at will! In the interstellar age, the starry sky is the best playground in the world.
But in the end everyone is happy. In fact, for Heisong, Zi, Xin, Guangguang and others, it is very cost-effective to become Chinese citizens, at least for now. After all, they don't have much life left - 700 years may be a long time, but compared to their goal - to question the former empire face to face, it is really too far away! At the current development rate of China, it will be possible to contact the Federation of Universal Civilizations within ten thousand years. It should be considered an amazing achievement. And if you want to get there, you may have to add a zero to the end of this time.
As for leaving China now and taking their own spaceship to explore the depths of the universe, Heisong, Zi, Xin, Guangguang and others would not dare! More than 4,800 years of silence have made them fear loneliness! Moreover, when we went to the Federation of Universal Civilizations, even the three seventh-level civilization empires needed to jointly build artificial wormholes to reach them. So it is conceivable that this place must be very far away from the Milky Way! Far beyond imagination!
"That's it. You people will leave your descendants as soon as possible, as many as possible, to continue your civilization and race; and then prepare to accept our genetic modification. Or practice modification, etc., so that you can have a long life. With some of our current military industry Technology can still greatly extend your lifespan, but it may cause some genetic mutations.
Although there should be no problems with genetic technology now, we still have to be just in case. "Now that the other party has made a decision, Zhang Jingyuan is no longer a villain in vain.
"This..." Black Pine, Purple, Letter, and Light hesitated a little. "Your Majesty Taizu, you know that among the original survivors, the proportion of women was less than one tenth. This..."
No wonder Black Pine, Purple, Letter, and Light were speechless during those 4,800 years of despair and no hope. Many people could not bear the pressure and chose to end their lives; in this desperate environment, the remaining women were only in their early 40s; the male-to-female ratio was nearly 10:1. Therefore, after the rescue, among the less than 500 survivors, everyone had argued many times about their spouses. It is conceivable that there are more wolves and less meat.
"This is easy!" Zhang Jingyuan laughed, "We have already survived a lot of genetic samples in your spaceship. I will ask the life laboratory to see if they can artificially cultivate a few."
Genetic samples? It's a corpse sample! Of course, everyone obviously didn't point it out clearly, just know it. Moreover, what is copied through genetic engineering is already another life. For the continuation of the race, what’s the point of taking some genes from corpses!
"Ah... thank you, Your Majesty Taizu..." For a moment, these remnants were full of flattery.
"Ahem, stop! But let's talk about it first. After all, it is a life of genetic replication. Although it is for the continuation of the race, we can temporarily open some permissions. But these resurrected lives will always be under our supervision."< br>
"This is what it should be!" Heisong. Zi. Xin. Guangguang nodded solemnly. Genetic matters are not big or small, and with China's current technology, they need to be treated with caution. Not to mention anything else, many things in the laboratory can cause panic if they are leaked even slightly - there are too many gene cutting, combination tools, etc., which themselves evolved from viruses! If these things were in the outside world, they would definitely turn into terrifying and deadly biochemical weapons. Ordinary people would never be able to withstand such a virus attack.
Someone will naturally handle the next details, but Zhang Jingyuan finally completely conquered these immigrants from the seventh-level civilization. For a time, everyone was dancing happily and talking freely. Many things that had to be kept secret before were also casually mentioned here; even these survivors of the seventh-level civilization also pointed out those precious thoughts that had been hidden.
In scientific research, sometimes, some ideas are more precious than experimental data!
After finishing the reception banquet, Li Yuzhang finally remembered the main purpose of inviting Zhang Jingyuan today, "Your Majesty, let's go see the research on photon energy. We have achieved good results. Among them are Heisong, Zi, Xin, Guangguang and others. A lot of effort was made.”
"Okay. Go back and strictly follow the rules and regulations of the empire, calculate meritorious service, and award rewards." Regarding rewards. Zhang Jingyuan is never stingy! Especially now, this is the interstellar era. If nothing else, awarding a life planet is really not a big problem for the current Chinese civilization!
There is no shortage of planets suitable for transformation in the universe. In almost a hundred star systems, thirty to fifty planets suitable for transformation can be found. The remaining star systems were directly reduced to mineral galaxies, and the stars were even more miserable, and were directly put on collars to walk dogs.
After strict inspection, the group finally arrived at the center of the city, even passing through two teleportation arrays in the process. This imperial scientific research center with a diameter of 20,000 kilometers is divided into several levels, and the latest photon energy research is at the central core.
Bang... as the last test passed. Everyone came to a huge building. This is a huge building with a height of tens of thousands of meters and a width of about three thousand meters. The inside is extremely brightly illuminated by the sunlight from space, and through optical means, it is not dazzling. Here, many scientists are busy. There are even various suspended machines moving in mid-air.
"Didi..." A series of explanations were opened together. If Zhang Jingyuan wanted to understand the current technical situation, he could only ask the person in charge to explain it directly, and he could not participate in the research himself. Boss Zhang has been playing recently, and this time he came here just to check out the progress. Then look at the funding situation and so on.
Soon, Li Yuzhang came out holding a paper notebook - although technology is advanced, it cannot completely replace the status of paper; Li Yuzhang said while turning the pages, "Your Majesty, before explaining the current optical energy, let me first say something about it. Summary of previous science.
Summarize the past. Only in this way can we carry forward the past and open up the future.
First of all, the energy we used before was mainly electronic energy. One advantage of electronic energy is that it is inherently negatively charged. Speaking of which, let’s talk about our previous technical situation.
At the beginning of research on photon energy. We are also at a loss because this involves a very fundamental reason: attributes!
Yes, properties, scientific properties. This is not magic, not fantasy, this is science. We didn't quite understand it at first, but as we researched, we discovered this problem. Because photons exist without any attributes, which means we cannot use them.
To this end, we examined past technologies and discovered a very important concept, which can be summarized in two words: attributes.
First of all, let’s talk about our original steam power. Its attribute is expansion. It expands when heated and does work. And we have made good use of this attribute, which is steam power. The pinnacle of steam power is probably the steam turbine; steam turbines are even widely used on nuclear aircraft carriers.
Let’s talk about the second one, electronic energy. Our previous energy source used the negative charge of electrons. Because of the electric charge, various wonderful electromagnetic, photothermal and other reactions can occur during movement. All these reactions can be summarized in one point: the movement of negative charges. Negative charge is the property of electron energy!
And steel, what are the properties of steel? Hard, heavy, cold, etc. The use of each attribute means different technologies.
For example, our current various steel products.
There is also nuclear energy. Nuclear energy uses nuclear fuel. Whether it is nuclear fusion or nuclear fission, we have a good grasp of the properties of nuclear fuel before we can use it.
After repeated demonstrations, we have to admit that all the technologies we used before were developed by taking advantage of the properties of matter. Most of these attributes are naturally carried by matter. Even our current space technology, genetic technology, etc. all make use of the properties of matter.
Photons, however, have no attributes!
There is no mass - at least we don't know yet how to measure the mass of a photon. There is no charge - no positive charge or negative charge, so photons theoretically cannot interact or react with anything. ”
"Good summary! Very good!" Zhang Jingyuan applauded. Just for the summary and theory of "scientific attributes", it is enough to make Li Yuzhang a scientific giant - of course, theoretically. But with the guidance of these theories, we can make a more important impact on the development of science.
Think about it, if one day, science can already express all the properties of matter clearly with numbers and formulas, and then freely combine them through a series of formulas, laws, etc., then what will it be like?
And next, Li Yuzhang talked about it here!
"Your Majesty, based on the 'property' theorem, we believe that a special research team should be established to classify the properties of all current scientific and technological theories, substances, and even the theories themselves. Then determine the corresponding theorems and formulas. This way , after technology becomes more developed, we can easily follow this We can combine these 'attributes' to what we need. In the future, low-level science will no longer be a profound and mysterious science, but a game and a building block game that can be made into a game for everyone to play and get. Countless unexpected technologies! By then, everyone will be a scientist!
It’s exciting just thinking about it! "(To be continued...)
