The weather in October is like a flowing fire. The big sun hangs in the sky, casting endless golden light.
However, in the super city ecosystem, it is still the most comfortable temperature. It is like a warm spring. The fresh breeze, with the smell of leaves, blows towards your face. It is warm but also a little cool.
The One World Federation's super city ecosystem is being built very quickly, or in other words, it is getting faster and faster.
Zhao Dong stepped on a maglev skateboard, turned on the automatic cruise, and shuttled among high-rise buildings. Looking at everything in his eyes, various thoughts emerged in his heart.
When machines are used to replicate machines, and the resources of the entire planet can be used arbitrarily, the advantages of industry are fully demonstrated.
As for the problem that resources are limited and will be exhausted, with the current technology of the World Federation, it is no longer a fantasy to obtain resources from alien planets.
Not long ago, the basic engineering aircraft of Type 7 was transported to the moon, and it was planned to build the first lunar eco-city on the moon. This eco-city was intended to be used for sightseeing and tourism.
And this is just the beginning, more distant planets are also included in the development budget of the One World Federation.
The whole thing, every resource project, is now open and transparent, and even real-time live broadcasts of related projects are posted on the official website 24 hours a day.
As for the meaning of live broadcast, Zhao Dong didn't quite understand it before, but during this period, after reading a lot of history, he vaguely understood something.
Of course, when it comes to studying history, he didn't really like this seemingly boring thing before, but with this period of time, training in the prehistoric game and the reincarnation of civilization, his mind became stronger and stronger.
, people have also begun to settle down, and they like to think and explore more and more.
For example, the live broadcast of the development of the moon and the sudden arrival of the peaceful and prosperous humane paradise have certainly solved the material problems. The emergence of the prehistoric game also seems to have solved the spiritual problems, but in fact, what people lack most in this era is
In fact, it is direction. Things like life are actually very strange. The more you have, the easier it is to get confused.
In the ancient times, there was slash-and-burn farming. Although it was difficult at that time, people had no shortage of direction. At that time, the direction of most people was to survive, plant more land, harvest more food, and avoid suffering.
Hungry.
But when material life became abundant, and even in modern times, meat could be eaten every day. Without survival crisis, many modern people lost their sense of direction.
They don’t know what they should do, they don’t know what their country wants to do, and they don’t know what direction it will take in the future. This is where confusion comes from, and it is even better than the era of slash-and-burn farming.
So, in the last century, the two most powerful countries on earth started a technological competition, and the direction of the competition was the starry sky.
A large amount of resources, as if they have no value at all, are invested in illusory star exploration projects.
This is destined to be a project with high investment and slow returns. As long as you have a normal IQ and know enough relevant information, you will know that getting returns from this project cannot be completed within a few years or decades.
.
But the elites who stood at the top of mankind at that time did it without hesitation.
As for the purpose, of course it is not a dream, but a direction.
At that time, the rise of science and technology solved the problem of hunger, and powerful force also allowed the two countries to stand proudly in the world.
Then, and then, the most powerful country fell into confusion and could not find a new direction.
This kind of confusion is not only spreading among ordinary people, but also among elite groups.
When the resources are gone, you can dig again. After digging, you can naturally go to other places to plunder and plunder. You are not afraid of running out of resources, but more afraid of running out of resources.
If there are too many resources, there will be no point in external expansion, and if there are no benefits from war, it will be meaningless.
Therefore, a lot of resources must be consumed in some way. As for allocating them to the lower levels, it will dampen the enthusiasm of the lower levels for production.
We cannot give them resources, but we can give them spiritual resources and give direction to the bottom class and even the elite, which is to explore the stars.
If a large amount of resources are used to improve people's livelihood, it will accelerate the collapse of the country.
But if it is burned and used to explore the starry sky, on the one hand, the lack of resources can strengthen the enthusiasm for reproduction below. On the other hand, the grand cause of exploring the starry sky can give people huge spiritual support and greatly enhance the country.
Because of the centripetal force, even the lowest-level workers in the factory will smile proudly when they mention that their country is exploring the stars.
The world is always a human world. Only with the human heart can everything exist.
"This has been proven by a certain art student who failed in World War II."
Thinking about this, Zhao Dong couldn't help but murmur to himself.
He didn't like history before, especially modern history. The main reason was that it was the least interesting. Stories about people and people were not as interesting as those fantasy stories about gods, demons and monsters?!
But as his experience grew, he felt that all stories, in the final analysis, are still human stories, and the interesting aspects of many historical fragments have to go beyond those wild imaginations.
"Perhaps, the integration of the world is the real opportunity for the leap of human civilization. Today's Universal Federation seems to be blooming and burning, but it can no longer find any more direction. Behind the prosperity, there is actually a war
Even more confused, after all, I have everything, but my motivation is gone..."
Zhao Dong thought to himself that if it had been earlier, he would never have had such depth of thought, but the encounters during this period made him grow almost every day.
Of course, this kind of growth also comes at a price. When you look at the history of human civilization and look forward to the future, with this kind of thinking, you will undoubtedly escape from the small circle of life in front of you.
This is the so-called improvement of horizons.
After the improvement and change, the side effects, or not entirely side effects, just a little, Zhao Dong felt that the girl he once had a crush on was just like that now. Compared with the splendor of the vast world, the other party was not even a star in the vast starry sky.
Not comparable.
When he woke up one day a few days ago and suddenly thought of the other person, he suddenly had such a feeling, which made him feel lost for several minutes.
As for the problems behind the prosperity of the One World Federation.
What completely defeats a powerful country is not poverty, but the lack of direction.
Without direction, there will be more contradictions.
