Chapter 305: The Development of Civilization (Part 1)
303. The Development of Civilization (Part 1)
While Tang Xiao was eagerly learning the vast knowledge of Darth Plagueis, the The four civilizations are also developing rapidly.
The Dawn Planet, whose population has soared to 2 million, is expanding rapidly and has once again formed 5 cities. If you add some Ewok settlements and small industrial and agricultural towns, the various levels of administration on the Dawn Planet are now The total number of residential areas has reached 40.
The administrative divisions of the planet are becoming more and more detailed, and a large number of middle and lower-level management positions have been subdivided to conduct detailed management of each city.
The previously established Zaolu City, Winter City, Gumi City and Truth City were divided into the Ursus region, while the five large cities that expanded to the north of Dawn City - Silver Ash City, Yaxin City, Chuxue City, and Jiaofeng The city and the messenger city were divided into the Kalan region. The two regions have established regional administrative agencies to conduct relatively macro-level management of urban development and planning within the regions.
In the newly established Kalan region, Cape Peak City is an industrial city standing on the mountain, Messenger City is another city inhabited by Ewok people, and Silver Ash City is built near high latitudes The climate in this area is relatively cold, but the terrain is flat and suitable for people to live in. A gem mine has even been discovered. It should be a very prosperous city in the future.
(Ahem, um, haha...)
In terms of population expansion, the social adoption policy is being widely implemented. Every resident has adopted at least one frozen embryo, and now these embryos Has grown into a teenager. It is expected that in another two years, these embryos will enter adulthood, their rapid growth period will end, and then they will officially enter the society.
Coupled with the knowledge instillation in the sleep state, although these teenagers are still a bit rigid in general, their IQ has reached a certain standard.
This is the benefit of socialized upbringing, which allows these frozen embryos to apply the knowledge instilled in them in life. Only in this way can the person born in this way be a real person, not an existence similar to a robot.
However, this population growth rate is still too slow, especially now that the Ministry of Agriculture of the Fourth Civilization has basically solved the food problem.
So under the instruction of Tang Xiao, Chief Executive Daphne Clement is preparing to conduct a pilot project. She designated a large area to the west of Dawn City and named it the Rhine Life Area. There is currently only one city in this area called Selea City.
In Selea City, 500,000 frozen embryos are concentrated, and their daily lives are taken care of by robots. The daily activity of these embryos is to go to a large school to receive instruction from human teachers. This city is only equipped with 5,000 human personnel, which greatly saves the current precious manpower.
If the model of Selea City can be successful, then the Rhine Life Zone will continue to build more cities according to this model, thereby accelerating population growth faster.
The Ministry of Agriculture of the Fourth Civilization has now adopted agricultural centralization technology on a large scale, and has widely used genetically modified technology to compress the maturity cycle of some major crops to 2 months. Not only that, in major concentrated agricultural areas, climate and ecological simulation technologies are used to give these crops the most suitable growing environment and improve crop yield and quality.
In the latest quarter, the total crop output of Dawn Planet has exceeded 500 million tons. You must know that this is only a quarter! So now the food produced by Dawn Planet can not only meet its own needs, but also have a large amount of material reserves, and can even be exported.
On the one hand, the exported food is used by Claire Underwood as working capital for the Outer Rim Sector Mutual Aid Fund in exchange for political influence; on the other hand, it is provided to the planet Seria during the civil war. Further increasing their dependence on Planet Dawn. In order to comprehensively coordinate foreign trade, the Fourth Civilization established an independent foreign trade company. This company will further untie the Fourth Civilization and the Fourth Group and allow the Fourth Group to move more freely in the future. At the same time, the foreign trade company will also conduct detailed planning and investment in the foreign trade activities of the Fourth Civilization.
The Fourth Civilization's research and development of large warships is basically at a standstill. The several large warship projects currently being developed are actually cooperating with other forces.
For example, the Apocalypse-class light cruiser was jointly developed by the Hiigaran Aerospace Company and the Semires, and the Hiigaran-class battlecruiser was jointly developed by them and the Trade Alliance and the Technology Alliance.
But in fact, it is also because of this series of ingenious diplomatic strategies that the Fourth Civilization has mastered the technology in "Homeland" for most of the time, allowing Chi Jianjun's scientific research team to put more efforts into Go to the analysis of the technology tree of "Sins of a Solar Empire".
The focus is on the research and development of antimatter energy. At the large physics experiment space station in outer space orbit, a prototype antimatter engine has been completed, and more experiments are now underway. The current plan is to actually field the antimatter engine within a year.
And the fourth civilization has a large-scale project in the near future - a planetary supercomputer!
It is said to be planet-level, but this supercomputer is installed on a large space station. It is claimed to be a storage space station, but it is actually a super quantum computer array. Once this supercomputer is completed, it will greatly improve the computing capabilities of Dawn Planet in all aspects.
Many previous scientific researches relied on the main brain of the Glory mothership. At present, the efficiency is not ideal, and the fourth civilization needs more than just a supercomputer.
And scientists will also conduct a preliminary analysis of the master brain on the Glory mothership. In fact, the database also contains the technology of the master brain. This is a neural network computer with a human being at its core. This kind of computer can retain a certain degree of humanity while having the computing power of a supercomputer. Compared with a quantum computer, it is actually more humane and faster. Calculate one of the two.
In the long-term planning, this kind of neural network supercomputer can be programmed into a management AI to specifically assist in the management affairs of various industries. Because there are some elements of human nature, management in this area will be more appropriate.
In contrast, quantum computers are more suitable for scientific calculations.
And now the global energy network on Dawn Planet has been initially completed, and the technology to achieve long-distance wireless power transmission through force field constraints has also been completed. In this way, the energy network of the entire planet can be used in any corner of the Dawn Planet.
