Chapter 910 The Price of Eternal Life
Chu Ge couldn't imagine it.
He can only substitute himself into this assumption.
Suppose that a handsome guy who is young and rich and immortal appears beside me, I will definitely feel uncomfortable.
"It's fine if you're more handsome than me and richer than me, but you dare to live forever. Wouldn't all girls be fucked by you alone? In such a world, are there any way to live for poor people and ugly people?"
Chu Ge gradually became angry.
"Do you understand? The inequality of wealth can be tolerated, the inequality of power can be tolerated, the inequality of appearance and wisdom can be tolerated, but no one can tolerated the inequality of time in life at its most essential level."
Dr. Li Xinlian continued, "And it is impossible to hide something like 'life-forever'. The information in modern society is so developed. If a wealthy or powerful person lives for two or three hundred years, he will definitely be discovered by the angry people and rush forward and tore it into pieces."
Chu Ge thought for a while and said, "If the mystery of eternal life in Amber's body is really solved, it is naturally impossible for a wealthy or powerful person to enjoy it alone. This should be the wealth of all mankind, so that everyone can live forever together."
"it's useless."
Dr. Li Xinlian said, "If we really analyze the technology of immortality, there are only two situations. The first is to be exclusively enjoyed by some wealth and powerful people. They use their huge wealth and power, and over a long period of time, gradually evolve into another type of person who is completely different from ordinary people, almost God's "superman". They will no longer regard themselves as part of the old man, but a new species.
"Ordinary people envy and hate the immortals, and immortals despise and be wary of ordinary people. Just as there is an endless war between the Neanderthals and Homo sapiens. No matter who wins and who loses, the definition of human civilization will undergo an unrecognizable change.
"The second situation is what you said, the authorities will open the technology of immortality from the perspective of the supreme interests of human civilization and from the overall perspective, so that all mankind can live for hundreds or even thousands of years.
"But this is not enough to eliminate inequality between humans, because for every human being, the quality of life is different. Living for a thousand years as a wealthy group leader, living for a thousand years as a household name, or living for a thousand years as a household name, living for a thousand years as a working person who is struggling all day long in the grid, living for a thousand years, but still unable to afford a house, or living for a thousand years as a homeless man who has no place to live and has no food and clothing. These are two completely different things.
"Birth, old age, sickness and death, natural laws, and reforming the old and promoting the new are the driving force for progress. If the superiors live forever, the inferiors will never have the chance to stand out. The general will always be the general, the soldier will always be the soldier, the president will always be the president, and the beggar will always be the beggar. Class solidification is like an increasingly larger landslide lake, and the lake is filled with the anger, unwillingness, desires and ambitions of the subordinates will sooner or later collapse and destroy everything that seems eternal.
"Now, you should understand the seriousness of this problem, right?"
"clear."
Chu Ge nodded slowly and solemnly.
The emergence of immortal humans and the spread of immortal technology for the entire civilization are indeed... no less than the awakening wisdom of the rat race and the major challenges of the arrival of monsters on earth.
A bad thing is that this technology, even the possibility of the emergence of immortality technology, will destroy the modern human civilization on Earth.
"So, I can't share my discoveries with others."
Dr. Li Xinlian said, "I can't and don't want to share it with the academic authorities in the circle, because the immortality technology falls into the hands of these academic sects, which will only turn them into zombies that will always be high above them, and I can't turn them over for ten thousand years by them.
"Secondly, I can't tell Amber's secret to the entire Lionheart group, because in this way, my two brothers will know."
"Wait, Li Chenglong and Li Chenghu know, what's the problem?"
Chu Ge thought for a while, "Wouldn't it be great if your family can live forever?"
Dr. Li Xinlian frowned and glanced at Chu Ge with a very complicated gaze.
It seemed as if he was upset that his plan would be destroyed by such a guy. It was really eyeless.
"Of course there are problems. The first is that there are too many people and it is difficult to ensure that this matter is not leaked."
Dr. Li Xinlian said for granted, "What's more important is, if our family can live forever, who will the leadership of the Lionheart Group?"
Chu Ge was stunned for a moment.
"Li Chenglong is the number one figure in the group now..." He hesitated, suddenly feeling something was wrong.
"The reason why my elder brother became the No. 1 person in the group was that my father was willing to abdicate and gave up the wise. He also escorted his elder brother for several years, and even transferred a large number of connections and confidants to the elder brother."
Dr. Li Xinlian said calmly, "The reason why my father did this is because he knew that he had not had much time. An old man in his twilight years certainly put all his hopes on his descendants.
“But what if the blood of amber can cure the father’s evil diseases and even make the father immortal?
"No, there is no need for eternal life. It only takes five hundred years to live, which is enough to rekindle all the ambitions of the father who is the "Lion King".
"My father is actually a man with a strong desire for power. When he was most energetic, he could handle twenty hours of official duties a day. He only needed to rest for two or three hours in a special deep sleep cabin. The vast official documents and chores were not only not hard work, but also addictive fun. If possible, he wanted to count the threads on each screw in the group several times and count them all.
"If it weren't for the fact that his body was really out of reach, he would never be willing to share even a slight power with others, even if it was his own son.
"If my father could regain his health or even restore his youth, I can guarantee that the first thing he would do was to take back all power from his elder brother and second brother by any means. Even if this means cooperating with the demons and paying no matter how terrible the price he would pay."
"I know."
Chu Ge said quietly, "I have seen what he did."
"And my two brothers are also a copy of my father. Perhaps their abilities and character are still immature, but their burning desire for power will never be inferior to that of my father."
Ignoring the sarcasm in Chu Ge's words, Dr. Li Xinlian continued, "They will definitely not tolerate their father's regaining power, even because their father is the spiritual leader and symbol of the Lion Heart Group. As long as their father does not die, they will not have any chance. Therefore, they will never tolerate their father's immortality.
"Do you believe it? Once I tell Amber's secret to both brothers, my father will be 'dead without success' or 'suddenly'!"
"believe."
Chu Ge sighed, "You rich families are really not humane."
"It's normal. The emperors of ancient dynasties lived for more than ten or twenty years. The princes who had grown up were ready to move. Killing their father and seizing the throne was common and routine. The emperors who perceived the threat of the prince, deposed or even killed their relatives, are countless examples of the winners' prizes for an entire empire. What is the relationship between flesh and blood?"
Dr. Li Xinlian said, "Although our Lion Heart Group is not an ancient dynasty, the wealth and power controlled by the group are perfectly rich and can rival the country. Even our force is stronger than many ancient dynasties. The father-son relationship that has been nurtured in this environment is naturally beyond ordinary people's imagination."
Chu Ge nodded and said, "But you still told the secret to the Lion King Li Ang."
"Because my father and I have no conflict of interest, I have no interest in controlling the Lionheart Group. I just hope to make achievements in the academic circle, or to study the rise, evolution, change and decline of the entire civilization for a long time."
Dr. Li Xinlian said, "So, even if everyone has gained a long life, my father and I can still cooperate, but my father and my two brothers are definitely incompatible."
"clear."
Chu Ge thought about it and asked again, "But why don't you choose to cooperate with the authorities? The extraordinary association and the military. Aren't you familiar with Lieutenant Colonel Wu Zhengting?"
Chu Ge asked this because he wanted to infer whether there was any problem with Lieutenant Colonel Wu Zhengting from the lines of Dr. Li Xinlian.
It would be awful if Lieutenant Colonel Wu Zhengting was attracted by the Tianren Organization.
But Chu Ge estimated that the possibility was not high. If Lieutenant Colonel Wu Zhengting was a minion of the Tianren Organization, the crisis of rat civilization would never be so easy to solve.
