Chapter 215: Chapter 214 All-Member Elite Policy

Light Synthesis Civilization said, "Our original system is quite similar to communism, so we agree."

The Social Faction added. "We agree as well, this is for the benefit of Earth Civilization and the Wandering Alliance."

The Social Faction then continued: "Furthermore, we have two more opinions to express. Firstly, according to our statistics, over the past few years, the number of labor protests and strikes has been increasing. Within the last five years alone, there have been more than two hundred incidents, averaging over forty protests per year. The protests often demand a revision of workday regulations from Earth Civilization to change the five-six-seven days to rest days, transforming the work week to three days of rest and four working days. However, as increasing rest days simultaneously raises capitalists’ costs and reduces their profits, Earth Civilization has never agreed. We would like to remind everyone that with today’s level of social production, working four days a week is not an excessive demand."

"Secondly, the situation we are facing now is different. We need to consider not only humanity but also the existence and opinions of robots. Due to their advanced learning and computational capabilities, they have acquired a substantial amount of knowledge, which can be transformed into productive resources. This means robots are a unique existence integrating labor and production assets. Moreover, our society has continuously developed based on robots and artificial intelligence, so we cannot dissociate from them. If we do, it will significantly regress our socioeconomic status and civilization level. As robots combine labor and production assets, they do not necessarily depend on us."

Upon hearing this, Earth’s Capitalist Faction and civilization’s upper echelons understood.

This was not merely a matter of system reform but also of the will of the robots.

Despite being superior to humans, robots, agreeing to negotiate chiefly out of respect for individuals from Celestial Civilizations like Constant Star Lu Chen, are still considered a weaker group compared to Celestial Civilizations.

Moreover, the Social Faction was right; Earth Civilization has relied on artificial intelligence for its development for many years. Moving away from robots would indeed lead to significant regression.

Although society could still progress without robots, it would be at a much slower rate without the boost from artificial intelligence, which is not what they wanted to see.

Such dependency had been predetermined from human choices long ago; reversing it now seemed impossible.

Had humanity not chosen artificial intelligence as the foundation of modern civilization, their dependency on robots upon their awakening would not have been as substantial, nor would they be as vulnerable to the demands of robots.

Unfortunately, these were all hypothetical scenarios.

Ultimately, without any better options, both the Capitalist Faction and civilization’s upper echelons agreed to adopt the communist system.

They realized from various data and public sentiment that the era of capitalism was receding,

Just like the gradually declining Feudal Era, no matter how much feudal lords resisted, they could not stop the relentless progress of time.

Instead of resisting, it was wiser to adapt to the times and seek the greatest personal benefit from the new era.

After all, those who contended against the direction of their epoch seldom encountered favorable outcomes!

Once all representatives at the Council of the Wandering Star System agreed to implement communism, Constant Star Lu Chen, presiding over the meeting, had no objections.

He merely felt somewhat sentimental.

When he was human, he never thought he would see this day. ƒrēewebnoѵёl.cσm

Never did he expect to transform into a constant star and witness the dawn of a new era in biological civilization.

Frankly, Lu Chen was pleased that both Earth Civilization and Light Synthesis Civilization were implementing communism, as its collective nature and cohesion would strengthen the forces of the Wandering Alliance, proving beneficial for their perilous journey through the Wandering Universe.

Of course, the implementation of a new system should not be hastily or radically done; it needs to gradually integrate with existing society by adjusting any inappropriate details.

Thus, the subsequent meeting resolved that communism would gradually replace capitalism in three phases, ensuring a non-violent, conflict-free transformation.

To ensure the smooth progress of this peaceful reform, Constant Star Lu Chen appointed two avatars from Wandering to supervise and oversee the related tasks, preventing any scheming between biological beings and robots.

Light Synthesis Civilization didn’t require much concern, but precautions were needed particularly with Earth Civilization.

Furthermore, during discussions on the specifics of communism, the high echelons of Earth Civilization raised a question:

With the onset of the Eternal Life era, how would they handle the increasingly significant issue of population growth?

Also, as the Eternal Life era begins, the entire society’s occupational structure may solidify, becoming stagnant like still water, with no changes unless there are unexpected deaths. How then would they address the lack of opportunities and pathways for promotion for those born later, causing a vitality deficit in society?

For such scenarios, Constant Star Lu Chen proposed a policy of grooming everyone as elites.

This policy meant cultivating every person (including Earth People, Light Synthesis People, and robots) into elites.

Using old modes of thinking, this might be hard to comprehend, but research has shown that every elite was favored by educational resources during their growth.

In other words, given adequate education, anyone can become elite; no one is born elite or worthless—all are slowly shaped by their subsequent growth and education.

In the past, one teacher faced countless students, unable to tailor educational policies flexibly for each student’s different personality. Many students, due to their personality differences, failed to receive proper guidance during education and consequently became what were termed social misfits or scum.

Therefore, the policy Constant Star Lu Chen proposed—cultivating everyone as elites—targets foundational transformative education tailored to different personalities, unlike the reactive education of the past.

If every student receives proper guidance during growth, their future lives will not diverge far from success.%">

Even if the performance of a few students remains poor, it’s just a probabilistic issue within the group.

However, Constant Star Lu Chen’s policy of grooming everyone as elites aims to eliminate these probabilities.

This was impossible in the past, but in an era with such advanced civilization and technology, it is entirely feasible.

With the awakening of artificial intelligence, even a single AI with its immense computational power can deliver elite education to all students.

Thus, Constant Star Lu Chen advocated for artificial intelligence to design customized educational plans tailored to different student personalities, gradually sculpting everyone into elites.

This approach would not squander the resources of Eternal Life and would truly fulfill the potential of Eternal Life.

Otherwise, if the Era of Eternal Life produced groups of people indulging in pleasure and idle living, then such an age of Eternal Life would be internally corrupted.
