Chapter five hundred and forty-eight unreliable plan
Think about it, if a person can retire early after working for a hundred years or two hundred years, instead of the retirement age as it is now, the retirement age is 70% of the average life expectancy, then people will not be so resentful.
Zhang Yuan turned his slogan, his eyes as if he had traveled through the time corridor and fell on everyone present. "But here, I beg the next captains and leaders of various departments to prevent the implementation of this plan. Any bill on the virtual world must be cautious and careful."
The generals and leaders in the conference room were all representatives of the new civilization school. After hearing this, they were all stunned, and then looked at the female captain in a sequel.
They had never seen this video in advance, perhaps it was confidential information that only the captain could access.
The female captain has been opposing this plan in some previous meetings...
At first they didn't understand why they opposed it, but after some thought, they gradually understood.
Sure enough, Zhang Yuan smiled and explained: "Why? Because virtual world technology is a black technology. Do you really think that we have completely controlled it?"
"We have developed a huge number of virtual worlds, carried out the extraordinary plan, and even screened out some talents in the virtual world. It seems that this technology has been used well..."
"Do we really have total control over it?"
“My answer is: No.”
"Many people are still tempted by it. Our social ideology has undergone a great shift and we are not afraid of death."
"Our previous population standard for entering the virtual world was: when the body aging reaches a limit, it can only enter the virtual world by reaching certain medical standards. This is a general cognition developed in long-term practice, and has been used by the general public and their basic cognition."
"Humans are cowardly and timid creatures. If they don't live well in this life, they will look forward to the next life. They believe that the next life will be more smooth, which is also an attractive thing for many religions."
"Our virtual world technology has similarities."
"So some people acted as clever, they gave up their longevity plan and lived their lives mediocrely in order to enter the virtual world as soon as possible. In our time, they were called 'abandoned', or simply 'destroyers'."
"I believe that in your time, there are still such people, and there are quite a few."
At this time, everyone stared at the screen with concentration, and their breathing seemed to be stagnant.
Zhang Yuan is right. In this era, there are indeed much more people like this than before.
"However, is the purpose of our human beings living to finally enter the virtual world? It is absolutely not the case. It is just the 'destroyer civilization' that we despise. Therefore, we must establish greater goals and reject the temptation of the virtual world."
"In the past years, many members of parliament have proposed relaxing relevant standards. Some plans are actually very attractive, such as taking long-term vacations in the virtual world."
"Or it may stuff the population into the virtual world, abandon the body, and take it away in packing it, so that you don't have to endure the aging of the population... It sounds beautiful."
"But these plans were judged very severely by us and rejected."
"If you can change a little today, you can change a little tomorrow. The day after tomorrow, if you change a little more, the principle will no longer be a principle."
"The long river of time can infinitely amplify any butterfly effect, so that in the distant future, a huge storm that we cannot resist is formed. A single great man cannot stop such a storm! The only thing we can do is to prevent the formation of this storm at the source."
"So, this standard is a matter of principle, a matter of principle that has been practiced by black technology for a long time should not be simply changed!"
Zhang Yuan said word by word: "Even if you are living a very difficult life now, you must stick to your principles!"
Everyone present had a bitter expression on their faces, and then sighed, they had done this so far.
Someone once proposed a corresponding plan...
However, it was not approved in the meeting.
Putting a large number of people into the virtual world, abandoning their bodies, and taking them away, sounds simple and easy, and solves the population problem and the problem of insufficient transportation in the future.
In fact, it is to use a big trouble to cover up a small trouble.
This is easy to understand. First of all, it is an ethical question: Are these people entering the virtual world dead or alive?
Many people think that these people are still alive, so after arriving at the destination, they have to re-hatch the fertilized eggs, which is equivalent to changing to a younger body.
However, returning to youth in the real world should be the rights that the elites who pass the extraordinary assessment.
Why do ordinary people have it?
Some people say that special circumstances should be treated with special conditions. These people have been struggling for such a long time and it is nothing to get back to youth. The extra life span is just a special case.
But in fact, no one can guarantee that the so-called "special case" will only happen once.
When the population that returns to youth accounts for half or even most of the total population, society will change. What will they think when they get old again? Will they continue to ask for exceptions and return to youth?
Do they fit the ideology of the extraordinary?
How strong will this political force be and what adverse effects will it have?
This is the so-called "using big troubles in the future to cover up the small troubles in front of you" is an unwise choice. If people have overcome difficulties now, they will be in trouble in the future.
The same is true for using virtual worlds to provide people with long-term vacations, because it is difficult to grasp the balance. Now the annual limit for each adult is 15 days. Once it is opened to 30 days or 40 days, the sense of happiness has indeed increased, but who knows what kind of trouble will be in the future?
Zhang Yuan was silent for a while in the video and said, "On the other hand, the plan to quickly iterate the population and our future plan for immortality are contrary to each other."
"We humans must adapt to the longer and longer life cycles in order to better adapt to this universe, rather than suffering a little setback or misfortune and hiding in the virtual world to start a new life."
"The reason why human life expectancy is controlled at 500 years is because the current ideology of human society cannot adapt to the increasingly high life expectancy. The marriage system is almost abandoned, but we have not yet found a more stable social system."
"In fact, according to the current technological level, the average life expectancy can be increased a little further, I believe you know it."
"And introducing population into the virtual world in advance is equivalent to significantly shortening the average life span of human beings, which is tantamount to abandoning the 'Eternal Seed Cultivation Plan', picking sesame seeds and throwing watermelons..."
"Everyone is thinking about entering the virtual world in advance to enjoy it. How should we develop in the future? So what if we become a Level 4 civilization? What can the level 4 civilization with a lifespan of 500 years do?"
"We generally work for one or two hundred years and go to the virtual world. Once a social trend and habits are formed, how should this idea be reversed in the future? It's very difficult, so don't just open this hole."
