Eve of Great Change
Chapter 47:Eve of Great Change
The population problem is a long-term problem that cannot be solved in days or months, and it will take decades or centuries of struggle to slowly see the effect.
There are many factors that affect fertility, including the environment, stress, economic conditions, etc., which need to be improved a little.Yifeng hopes to increase the fertility rate to more than 5% in the future.
5%, not small, that is, 2,500 babies a year.
The two people briefly talked for a while and decided to start from dating.The meeting is simple, and many people are willing to participate.Through blind date, these single men and women have contact conditions, close to each other, and get to know each other, so as to get rid of singles.
Since the explosion of the earth, many people have been lonely, lonely and full of feelings of insecurity.They are eager to find each other's other half, the blind date is still more reliable, held a few times, the effect is good.
Of course there are other ways.For example, the working environment is as balanced as possible between men and women, creating multiple dating locations, and so on.
Alas, when a captain is not easy, the pressure mountain ah, but also have to consider the problem of people's singleness ... leaving Xu Yunjin's office, Yu Yi Feng's head is still thinking constantly.
Next, we must carry out environmental, construction, economic, political, scientific and technological reforms for the entire spacecraft, all in one ring, and need to carry out multiple aspects at the same time.
Since waking up in a coma, he felt that his brain was smarter and more courageous.He has long been determined that this reform must be carried out, and if it succeeds, people will take a big step in the fundamental system!
Whoever dares to stop it, then defeats him, and that is the enemy of the whole civilization!
However, relying on his own wisdom, it is certainly impossible to do it, and it is necessary to concentrate the wisdom of more people and gain more support.
Now he is going to the home of the famous sociologist Professor Sean.
Sociologists and economists in Noah’s ship are very few, because most of these people were left on Earth at that time.Professor Sean from Germany, because he was studying at the lunar base, was lucky to escape.
The reason why Yu Yifeng visited him was not only this, but also because Professor Sean was a real fighter!
After graduating from the Ph.D., Professor En resolutely left academia and worked as a construction worker for 17 years, speaking two "languages", one is the tall "teaching English" and the other is the simple and vulgar "worker English".
In the words of Xu Yunjin, although he believed, he could not do the way Professor Sean did, give up superior office life, and worked on the construction site for 17 years, in order to contact the people at the bottom and understand Marxism more deeply.
Huaxia is itself a socialist country, the transitional stage of the society, and it is very ironic that discussing faith in the country is an extremely hated thing.
Perhaps affected by the capitalist wave, some people immediately began to use a magnifying glass to find your flaws, and to speculate about your life with all kinds of dark psychology, as if to knock you down to prove their greatness.
There are often "five cents", "rabbit", "tg" and other words on the Internet, which is the dissatisfaction of people with reality, and people do not understand the real.
Yes, the choice of Yifeng is **!
Not because his motherland is a socialist country, nor is he politically edified like Xu Yunjin, he is well thought out, compared with "capitalism", "nationalism", "socialism", etc., he does think that "**" is the strongest, most combative, most suitable system for interstellar navigation.
According to Yi Feng's vision, if we want to become a real interstellar civilization, we must first achieve great material wealth, and the development of science and technology cannot be settered by the economy.
Think about it, if a human government wants to build a very difficult spacecraft, at least 100,000 times more difficult for an aircraft carrier, but still worry about money, how can this spacecraft be built?
It is necessary to be extremely rich in material resources and a government with very high operational organization ability to build this ship.
The best way to do this is to...
Yu Yifeng knocked on Professor Sean's door, just an ordinary tin room.
“Please come in!”There was a middle-of-the-naught man in there.
Go to the door and sit down.The room was very simple, with only one bed, a few pieces of iron furniture, and a few books, very simple.He looked at it a little and said, “Hello, Professor Sean!”
"Hello, Mr. Yi Feng."
Must be a gentleman.Professor Sean was about 50 years old, his cheeks were covered with deep wrinkles, his eyes were bright, but he was full of vicissitudes.He is a man of great faith and willpower.
“Professor Sean, I have a question for you, what is the fundamental driving force for the progress of civilization?”He was not ambiguous and asked directly.
Sean mused for a moment, and he was also very interested in the young leader.This young man, with courage, courage, and wisdom, has so far counted the best.But at the end of the day, I don’t know where he will lead human civilization.
As soon as Yi Feng's question came up, Sean basically understood what he was going to ask.
“It is, to be precise, a fundamental contradiction in society.”Professor Sean said, "That's the standard answer in textbooks."
“Of course there are other answers, such as the progress of science and technology, the change of the fundamental system, the improvement of human quality, and so on.”
"But there is another way of saying that **,** has promoted the progress of civilization."
This may be better understood, ** is the biological instinct, is rooted in the deepest things of genes.
As an all-eity spirit, human beings have endless hunger, curiosity, desire to explore, want to live in a better house, wear better clothes, enjoy food, and so on.
These ** continue to promote the development of productivity, promote the integration of the nation, the progress of science and technology.
From conquering land to conquering the sea, conquering the sky, and even conquering outer space and conquering the universe.It is understandable, therefore, that** is the driving force of human development.”
“So far, this is all right.But I don't think it's possible to take humanity to ** just."
"Oh?"What to say?”The right color path.
Professor Sean was silent for a moment, explaining, "There is a country on earth called Brazil."
"It has the fifth largest territory in the world, with a population of more than 200 million, escaped two world wars, and its geographical location is unique, but it is still a developing country, and even has the possibility of economic regression.
“If you’ve been to Brazil, you know God’s preference for Brazil, and there’s a saying in Brazil that God created the world in six days and Rio on the seventh day.This statement shows how abundant Brazil’s natural resources are.
Brazil has 18% of the world's fresh water, produces one-third of the world's oxygen, a large amount of mineral resources, and countless tropical fruits.The rich resources allow Brazilians to live a rich life without much labor.”
“It is such a natural resource that is unique, more than 20 years ago, it was the economic power of the sub-developed countries, and it is still the same, with no progress or even the possibility of economic regression.”
"China, with a similar territory to Brazil, has far less natural resources than Brazil, but GDP is five times that of Brazil.Do you know why this is?”
Yu Yifeng had an answer in his heart, but he listened to Professor Sean continue to say.
"The reason is that Brazilians, without the pressure of survival, are too lazy... no matter how poor, they will not starve, which also develops their lazy character."The market prices have risen, they are rich, the market has fallen, they are poor, and even the fruit is too lazy to pick.
Of course, the government's poor organizational capacity, poor mobility, and ** are also part of the reason.”
"Human resources are endless, and the rich environment can only satisfy the human part."Laziness, greed, and selfishness breed in this environment.
Brazil is a living example, where people are not under pressure to survive and are not rich because they are too lazy.And at this time, there is no way to move civilization forward.”
Yu Yifeng nodded thoughtfully, "Then, the rich environment is more likely to lead to the cessation of civilization development?"
“The wealth that a man can control is proportional to his qualities.”Professor Sean mused and said, "The wealth of a civilization is proportional to the quality of all."
"If the quality of civilization is not high enough, and it is extremely rich, it does not push people to the direction of **, and it is easier to lead to the stagnation of civilization."Why, because of laziness.Laziness is an instinct rooted in human genes, and it is not easy to overcome laziness.”
“If a man wants to eat what he wants to eat and what he wants to play, then why should he work?”What is the purpose of his work?Why doesn’t he have fun and enjoy life?
So he was lazy, and if the whole civilization thought so, the whole civilization was so lazy."
“Civilization will lose the momentum of progress.”
Yi Feng's heart suddenly moved, it is true, if everyone is very rich, then why do you still have to work?This is a very real problem, and it is also the most difficult problem.
“Professor Sean, is there any solution?”
“If we want to transcend this stage and reach a higher level, people’s ideology must keep up.Everyone must have ideals, have goals, pursue a career in their life, and have no regrets.”
"That's very difficult."Professor Sean said seriously.
(This chapter looks a bit middle-of-the-twin, but it stuck me for a long time, and it took me a long time to write it.)What I want to say is that an interstellar civilization, after entering the stars, with the advancement of science and technology and the adequacy of energy, extreme wealth should be very normal.If a civilization is still worried about food, clothing and housing, why go into the stars?
Second, after being extremely rich, we must solve people's ideological problems, civilization from the fundamental system must be advanced, there can be no internal division and other issues, the system is not perfect civilization will inevitably be unable to enter the starry sky.
This one, I’ll explain in detail in the third volume, now get started.Today in this chapter, more than 3000 words of the chapter, because writing this chapter takes too much time, the evening is not more, I am sorry.
In the future, I may mix some private goods, and the thinking on civilization, system, wisdom and other aspects is not necessarily correct, and everyone can judge it.)
