"There are always people who will emphasize some names to strengthen the rationality of some of their actions, thus providing cover for them to weaken the weight of our necessary rights and interests."
The flames in front of my eyes are getting stronger and stronger, but I can no longer feel the pain.
The siren of the fire truck outside the building seemed to be less loud. Of course, the grievances I had in this life seemed to have come out. Oh, maybe that's it.
In this life, hey, how could I have made such a mistake? Haha.
The last sound I heard was the ringing of bells in a distant city and the time - it was now 10:00 pm in the capital, capital time.
It’s over, 201~
…
"I see, I see..."
Wei Keng is only five years old and has just gained the ability to sort out his memories of his previous life.
Now, like a small ball, he squatted on the ground and picked up a dark cicada with chopsticks. He stretched out his little finger, touched the vibrating eardrum of the cicada, and said viciously: "Are there hundreds of fucking cicadas?"
It’s been years, but it’s still so noisy.”
Young people don't know what it's like to be sad. Wei Keng is a reborn person. He experienced bad things in his previous life. He was reborn six hundred years later and became a human again. He hopes to start over in this life.
For Wei Keng, all this is new.
In the garden of this public hospital, a suspended drone is spraying water mist on each flower and plant to remove dust from the leaves. The water mist faces the sun and creates a rainbow.
Amid Wei Keng's greeting, the drone flew down and picked up the cicada that Wei Keng's little hand put on it. Then, the drone returned the cicada to the shade of the tree.
A few minutes later, he heard the chirping of cicadas again. Five-year-old Wei Keng wiped his nose with his sleeve and exhaled: "Back to normal."
…
Looking back at history, the 21st century five hundred years ago is now called the modern era.
Earth, the First World War paved the way for the internal combustion engine revolution, the Second World War ushered in the nuclear age, the Third World War catalyzed the maturity of various technologies such as synthetic organic matter, nuclear fusion and space navigation, and nuclear weapons changed the
The habit of human beings living in surface cities.
After the 22nd century, Earth's civilization continues to undergo various super changes that were unimaginable by people of previous eras.
With the end of the Third World War, a large number of mature applied technologies during wartime were transformed into national competition in peacetime. The drone system began to build clusters of human creations on major planets in the solar system. In the field of medical technology, theoretically,
Eternal life is completed.
[Theoretically, the human brain needs to regenerate nerve cells. During this process, the adjustment of various emotional hormones makes memory and thinking extremely unstable. It requires great will to maintain the past memories and thinking. In
In this kind of surgery, the recipient will forget himself if he is not careful.]
Even so, contradictions and conflicts in human society still exist. New technologies will discover new fields, and these newly discovered fields represent the wealth of the country, nation, and society.
So World War IV still broke out
This war took place in the year 2400 and lasted for 223 days. This super war, which used various continents on the earth as the main battlefield and the moon, Mars, and Venus as secondary battlefields, caused the death of as many as 93.3 million human lives.
The most lethal one occurred on August 6, 2400.
In order to complete the strategic destruction of the war potential of its Asian opponents, the North American Alliance launched a planetary-scale star catalog destruction plan in the Western Pacific theater, using 600 billion equivalent nuclear weapons on the fragile plates of the Northeast Asian island countries. Let the region's
The fragile balance between the Pacific Plate and the Asian Plate was broken. Although the entire Asia has completed the relocation of the old and weak population and the maintenance of various damage-resistant facilities in such a frontier area for this old industrial zone, six million people still died and
Missing.
The tragic war ended with the systematic collapse of most of the world's governments at that time. There was no winner in the war. In the ruins after the war, mankind spent twenty years reorganizing the political system and restoring the economy and free trade.
.
However, unlike the end of the previous three world wars, where large-scale technological advances before the war resulted in development dividends for all mankind. There are no dividends this time.
The cause of all world wars is economic problems. Whoever can use the scientific and technological progress brought by the war to solve civilian economic problems can usher in the next era. But the cause of the Fourth World War is the real consumption habits of various industrial nations around the world.
Out of touch with cutting-edge high technology.
So after the Fourth World War ended, the world remained the same.
Although there is still room for progress in the most advanced quantum technology and aerospace technology, it is still some time away from actual civilian use in this era! The houses that ordinary people buy, the rice they eat, and the mobile phone industry they use have nothing to do with space drone systems.
association.
Don't talk about the era of interstellar colonization! All the more serious science fiction in the 21st century reflects the life of spaceships, which has the shadow of the Age of Discovery in the 18th century, with claustrophobic cabins, turbid air, and mutual suspicion among crew members.
! Ordinary people on earth support the development of science and technology for the sake of a better life, not for the sake of remembering the bitter and sweet.
We can see that the disconnect between technology and economy on earth is becoming more and more serious, distribution is unfair, and many people are marginalized, leading to structural instability. Contradictions are everywhere. We can only see that the situation can only be broken through the outbreak of the fifth world war, and through the existential crisis of the country and the nation.
, to promote the concentration of civilization and continue to raise science and technology to a higher level. But on this dark eve, the crisis was suddenly lifted.
Because, there is a breakthrough in basic physics!
In 2533, earth scientists discovered a strange response after penetrating the center of the earth through a neutrino signal transmitter. After five years of research, they discovered that in the center of the earth, the center of gravity, a wormhole effect can be produced through high-energy physics.
of.
Earlier, in the field of life sciences, there happened to be relevant technical reserves.
In 2455, a large team in the medical field determined the microphysical phenomena in the human brain that are linked to the phenomenon of human consciousness.
In 2478, a specific physical testing site was used to temporarily preserve the consciousness of a terminally ill volunteer experimenter within three minutes after his brain stopped functioning, and implant it into a carbon-based chip, which maintained the survival of his mind for five months.
.
Therefore, in 2545, the world carried out key research and successfully reconstructed self-thinking in a newborn brain using human consciousness and chips preserved in the physical field.
Since then, the foundation for plane travel has been completed, and humans can explore the possible physical world on the other side of the microscopic wormhole in the information state mode.
In 2587, human spacecraft surveyed and mapped the moon, Mars, Venus, and even the cores of Jupiter and Saturn, confirming that this technology could be widely used on all major planets.
…
The eternal night has ended.
From the 21st to the 26th century, after experiencing two nuclear world wars, humans of this generation suddenly discovered that the future may not be the stars and the sea, but the exploration of multiple dimensions. At the same time, people discovered that earth civilization is actually not
So lonely, in many parallel universes, like the reflection of , there are signs of various human societies.
Wei Keng was born in 2590.
…
Time: 2608 Location: Puhai No. 4 area.
After the Fourth World War, high-rise buildings have been rebuilt here, but between these modern buildings are strips of blue seawater rivers - just like Venice in the past.
During the Fourth World War, a large amount of undersea methane was released into the atmosphere and the world rapidly warmed, so the Antarctic glaciers melted. The once bustling metropolis has now become a swampy land with an average water depth of two meters. However,
It doesn't matter, the rise of sea level does not mean that marine life will be allowed to roam here. Humanity's engineering infrastructure capabilities are mainly focused on customers.
Humans have built dams one after another to divide these areas on the continental shelf into pieces, and built boating cities similar to Suzhou Water City on these fresh water areas.
Not only did this kind of construction not reduce the scope of human activities, but the grids created on the earth extended the freshwater area to the past continental shelf. The new cities that emerged in the past 25 centuries in the Yellow Sea area are the
A city on the edge of the ocean, Puhai is now considered inland.
Private boats pass through small urban rivers, and 10,000-ton ships shuttle through urban rivers. They are all navigated by signal stations in the city - driverless? Oh, this is not a gimmick today, just like smart phones.
In the era of mobile WeChat and QQ video calls, video calls are nothing.
In this prosperity, a large number of operating industrial areas are naturally indispensable.
After the fifth industrial revolution, factories have become completely automated and intelligent with the support of information technology.
The entire factory is just like the various steam locomotives with manually controlled pull rods in the past that have been transformed into cockpit cars with smart screens. The factory that once required a large number of staff office spaces has now become a compact production integrated park controlled by electronic modules.
During the second industrial revolution, an industrial zone would cover hundreds of hectares, including roads, parks, and water and electricity facilities. Now, on an area of three hectares of land, it stretches 400 meters upward and 400 meters downward.
Spanning 600 meters, such a dense building is filled with various machines, and a mechanical centipede with only a lens remotely controls the robot to climb through the pipe and inspect inside as a stand-in for the workers.
Well, there are also a group of suspended bee robots that also come in and out of this factory. These are full-sensor mechanical stand-ins controlled by interns.
…
When a small drone flew into the factory.
The perspective is in a school residential area fifteen kilometers away.
"Welcome to Tenglong Factory No. 12. The industrial projects here are responsible for the production of internal combustion engine equipment No. 1 to 123, and industrial base 234. For engineering software engineers, please press 1, for staff workers, please press 2,..."
"6,6,6, I am 6..."
A few kilometers away, Wei Keng was lying in the cockpit in a skyscraper apartment, tapping the screen frantically with his fingers.
As an engineering graduate student, Wei Keng's study was very wasteful.
…
This process of logging into the factory to learn was explained by the instructor in person as early as ten days ago. However, since they can choose to log in remotely at any time, most people have escaped. After all, there are so many tomorrows.
On the last day, Wei Keng finally woke up from his slumber and started going online, reviewing intensely, and preparing to pass the exam.
"Welcome to log in, classmate Wei Keng, your instructor has left a message for you."
Wei Keng opened the screen, and a tutor with a newspaper face appeared on it: "You are the last batch of students to log in to the review system. I'm sorry, but I will pay close attention to your grades. If you can't score 80 points in the exam, you will be considered a failure in this subject.
."
Wei Keng: "Oh my god, why didn't you tell me earlier? It was only at the end that you fished for law enforcement."
While muttering to himself, he swept aside the scraps of paper on the table.
No matter what happened in his last life, Wei Keng is quite satisfied with this life. His only regret is that he didn't communicate much with his parents and became an orphan.
…
Wei Keng's parents were among the last batch of people who were voluntarily recruited by the space-time exploration department of the Asian United Government to explore the sub-plane.
In the space fantasy of the 21st century, there is always a planet with alien life, but in fact, most of the planets that may have life in the entire universe are mostly war scum that have not evolved multi-cellular life.
But in the sub-plane, there are various situations that seem to reflect the civilization of the earth. These planets with life, intelligence, and even civilization are very dangerous.
Just as military pilots were recruited for early space exploration, Wei Keng's father was also a specially selected consciousness activist responsible for exploring dangerous planes. Wei Keng's mother was the person in charge of the monitoring cabin accompanying him.
Determine the stability of the physical phenomena of the shuttle node.
And just three years ago, for some reason, they lost contact in space. It is said that my father was directly attacked by the indigenous people who mastered advanced intelligent technology on the target plane, and his mother, who was relaying and monitoring the information cabin, was also involved.
Also fell.
Of course, the Earth side is by no means a vegetarian. It was determined that this plane would be harmful to the exploration of Earth's civilization. The time and space shuttle department quickly mobilized a large number of personnel to clean up the plane.
It can be regarded as an explanation to the family.
As a family member of those who died in the official exploration formation, Wei Keng naturally received higher educational rights, and could be regarded as admitted to the ranks of graduate students in contemporary engineering.
…
In this peaceful and prosperous age, the average compulsory education per capita has reached 18 years (college students), and graduate students are as common as a four-legged toad in this era.
The Third World War verified this social situation:
Although modern high technology only needs a few people to operate, and the rest of the people only need to eat welfare, but simply eating welfare will lead to a lack of knowledge at all levels of society and low-intelligence social activities, such as chasing love in the rice circle.
Dou, or do it on the Internet, which is not conducive to competition at the national level, so I dragged them all over to school.
In order to complete the 18-year compulsory education, I have to look at my scores every day, so I don’t have time to yell in society, let alone make stupid remarks like the “living dolls” produced by the idol factory.
As a person with long-term wisdom, Wei Keng was wise as a young man, but as time went by, he gradually became a middle-aged man.
Wei Keng: "As for me, I don't have much ambition. That's it. That's it."
Wei Keng's fingers tapped on the holographically projected exam questions and began to memorize them.
