MTL - The Rise of Space Technology-Chapter 262 , let go of pride and prejudice

   Chapter 262, let go of arrogance and prejudice

   It makes people shudder to think about it. If the day alien civilization comes, your technology is not as good as people, the only thing you can do is to pray that they will be gentle when eating meat.

Just like the clashes between civilizations and between races and races in human history, the brutality displayed by the invaders has been unstoppable, not to mention the difference. of the cosmic civilization race.

   "Mr. Liu Yuan, are you worried that one day our earth will be invaded by alien civilizations?"

   Soon, someone continued to follow the topic just now.

   "I'm definitely worried, because in my opinion, today's earth, people are too obsessed with money and enjoyment, money is supreme, hedonism is prevalent, and refined egoism is rampant."

   "Even having children, the basic continuation of human survival and development, has become a difficult problem. There is no hope for such a civilization."

   Liu Yuan nodded and said.

   Among the seeds of inheritance, Liu Yuan has seen the history of many civilizations.

The development of cosmic civilization requires many trials and tribulations, and civilizations born in too favorable natural conditions often lack a sense of urgency and are immersed in a world of hedonism. The ultimate result is the destruction of the entire civilization. .

   This point can be found even in the history of human beings on earth.

  Like the Roman Empire, it used to be brilliant, but the powerful Roman Empire is slowly developing, gradually indulging in pleasure, money and enjoyment.

   In the Roman Empire at that time, everyone was immersed in the splendor of the empire and immersed in enjoyment. There were countless bathrooms and hot springs in every corner of the city of Rome.

  The Romans spent their day in it. They enjoyed everything brought by the glory of the empire, but they were slowly unable to extricate themselves from it.

   Not only gradually even the army was handed over to hired Celtic and Germanic barbarians, but because of the daily immersion in warm water, gradually the Romans began to lose their fertility.

   So the mighty Roman Empire fell overnight, and Europeans believed that bathing would bring disease and make people infertile, hence the long and stinking dark Middle Ages.

   In addition to the Roman Empire, let's look at our history. The Khitans and Jurchens in history are very powerful. During the Song Dynasty, the Khitans established a powerful Liao, and the Jurchen established a powerful Jin.

The Khitans, who were originally nomads, quickly became corrupt and degenerate after they settled in the Huahua World in the Central Plains. The originally powerful Khitans gradually lost their powerful fighting power in a short period of time, and were finally given to them by the few Jurchens. defeat.

The same thing soon happened to the Jurchens. They replaced the Liao Kingdom and entered the Huahua Central Plains world. They also quickly degenerated and corrupted at an unimaginable speed, and were finally destroyed by the rapidly rising Mongolians. Lose.

  Look at the current earth, the current society, the prevalence of hedonism, the proliferation of refined egoism, how similar history has ever been, but one day in the future, it may be a civilization from an alien planet that may punish us.

In the universe, there are too many such civilizations, too many, some of them are still the civilization of the mother planet, just like the people on earth, sitting in the sky, arrogant, and suddenly one day, when a powerful alien civilization comes across the sea of ​​stars, it welcomes the entire civilization. Fate will be very tragic.

There are also some powerful civilizations in the universe, ruling one side, enslaving countless civilizations, enjoying the sacrifices and wealth of countless civilizations, and gradually degenerating and corrupting. In the time of billions of years, civilizations have not only been without any progress, but gradually regress.

   In the end, when faced with a powerful civilization, it was a complete defeat and disappeared into the long river of history in a blink of an eye.

  The current situation on Earth is also very bad.

   There has been no major breakthrough in technology for a long time, and it has entered a development bottleneck stage.

Under the existing technology, human beings have been able to live a very good life, so human beings are more indulged in pleasure, star chasing, sports, etc. are popular. On the contrary, science seems to be becoming less and less attention and attention. .

This is a very dangerous situation. When the whole earth is immersed in such a trend of thought, progress will become slower. Over time, there may not be any major breakthroughs and breakthroughs for hundreds or thousands of years. develop.

   "Mr. Liu Yuan, since you are talking about the future of mankind, the resources on the moon are extremely rich, and it is the most precious and important resource for us to move towards the interstellar universe era."

   "Does your company intend to cooperate with the world to develop the resources of the moon?"

   Soon, a reporter with blond hair and blue eyes with a high nose and deep eyes stood up and asked.

   All of a sudden, the topic shifted to the topic that the hottest moon is the common wealth of all mankind.

   "Of course we are willing to work with people all over the world to develop resources on the moon, but the premise is that everyone is willing to abide by the rules set by our Xinghai Technology."

   Liu Yuan thought about it and replied.

   "Can you tell me what the rules are?"

   When the other party heard this, he immediately asked again.

   "For example, let go of Pride and Prejudice!"

   "Let go of power and dominance!"

   "Have enough respect and mutual understanding for each other!"

   Liu Yuan replied with a smile.

In fact, Liu Yuan's words are basically nonsense. On the one hand, he said that he is willing to cooperate, and on the other hand, he said that he must abide by the rules of Xinghai Technology. This rule is naturally set by Xinghai Technology. Whether he is willing to cooperate or not, he finally returned. Xinghai Technology is here.

   "Crash~"

  Liu Yuan's words just fell, and the scene immediately burst into warm applause. Of course, these applause came from news media reporters in developing regions.

   "Will Xinghai Technology mine resources on a large scale and conduct various scientific experiments on the moon?"

   "Have you considered the huge impact that various activities on the moon may have on the earth?"

  Some reporters stood up again and tried to force Liu Yuan to take a stand on the issue of lunar resource exploitation.

   "Our Xinghai Technology will not only mine resources on a large scale on the moon, conduct various scientific experiments, etc., but we will also work with more like-minded people to develop the resources of the moon."

"Of course, we also fully consider the impact of mining lunar resources on the earth. There is no doubt that this impact will be positive, which will only allow us humans to master more and more abundant resources. Let us have more wealth."

   "For example, this time we discovered gold with reserves of more than 10,000 tons on the moon. This gold mine is also a valuable asset for us humans."

Liu Yuan looked at the other party, and from the seed side, he already knew about the lunar resources on the earth, and huge waves had already been generated. He was even in a meeting to discuss banning the exploitation of lunar resources, causing a lot of protests or something. .

   However, these had no effect on Liu Yuan at all.

   They like meetings and voting, so let them go to meetings and vote. Anyway, I am still going to mine on the moon, and not only mining, but also large-scale mining, driving the rapid development of the lunar mining industry.

   As for what they protested, it wasn’t in their own home anyway. They liked to make trouble, so let them make enough trouble. It’s not our home that caused the trouble.

   "Mr. Liu, do you agree with the view that the moon is the common wealth of all mankind?"

   Hearing Liu Yuan mention the resources and gold on the moon, someone else stood up impatiently and asked.

   "Of course, not only the moon, but also Mars, the earth, and the sun, moon, and stars in the sky."

   Liu Yuan smiled and replied.

   "Is it inappropriate for your company to monopolize this super-large gold mine?"

   "Or, if Xinghai Technology mines gold mines and resources on the moon, it should pay taxes to all mankind?"

   Seeing that Liu Yuan agreed with this point of view, the other party hurriedly said.

   "It belongs to our Xinghai Technology, and it also belongs to us humans. Don't our Xinghai Technology belong to Earth humans?"

   Liu Yuan also asked rhetorically.

   "But don't the resources on this moon belong to all human beings? Is it inappropriate for you to take Xinghai Technology as your own? Should you pay taxes to all human beings?"

   The other party asked again.

   "The earth still belongs to all mankind, so why are the resources and wealth on the earth not divided equally?"

   "The food in the developed and rich world can't be eaten up, and it's being wasted. People in backward and poor areas can't even eat enough. Why don't you share some of your wealth?"

"Although the moon belongs to the wealth of all mankind, it is also a land without owners. Whoever occupies it first, it belongs to whose property, just like the stars in the sky, if you have the ability, you can also occupy it, that is also the case. your property."

   "Of course, this also means wealth that belongs to mankind."

   Liu Yuan couldn't help laughing. There is such a robber theory. There is a lot of wealth in the interstellar universe. You have the ability to bring it back.

   It's not like everyone didn't know that the moon is rich in resources, but do you have the ability to mine it back?

   Now that our Xinghai Technology has the strength to mine, you actually told me to pay taxes to the world, which is a bit of nonsense.

"This,,,,"

The other party was immediately speechless. This is what it is. Where are the resources and wealth, whoever has the ability will mine it back. If it is recovered, it will indeed increase the wealth and resources of the earth, but you can't say that People take it out and divide it equally. Who will come to study technology in the future, and who will go to the interstellar universe?

   Liu Yuan looked at the other party, but he was not in the mood to talk to these people anymore. His attitude this year was clear enough. After a trip to the moon, he was also tired, so go back and have a good rest.
