302 As it should be
As a magic administrator, Zhao Zhenxue, as a magic administrator, naturally understood that it was all lies. According to the current magic quota for Carmel to Z Country, let alone the annual inspection of all officials, even if the magic consumption is quadrupled, it can be done. Consciousness detection is a spell with very little magic consumption, especially when targeting specific "consciousness targets", in things like crime prevention, the consumption of magic is almost negligible. This is still under the premise that Z Country does not have an open consciousness network. Please use the pinyin domain name of this site to visit us.lingdiankans
In countries such as Europe and South America, similar work is countless times more convenient than in China. In China, she still needs to constantly collect doubts and evidence, and on the basis of mastering certain materials, she will then arrest and interrogate people. However, the work she does is in Europe, especially in Nordic political styles that tend to be socialist, similar to Switzerland and Denmark... is completely unnecessary because of different political traditions, and the officials there have completely different circumstances than in China.
Although the domestic crackdown on economic crimes in the past two years has made great progress compared to before, and from a vertical perspective, progress is not small, but if such progress is compared with other countries horizontally, it will be easy to find that this is nothing at all.
In current Europe, a member of parliament participating in the election, if he dares to say that he is not a user of the consciousness network, he is disgusted with the consciousness network, and refuses to wear a communicator when he works and accepts supervision from the consciousness network, even if his political ability is high or his speech is lost, he will never be able to get many votes.
In China, although officials are much less courageous in economic issues than before, in other aspects, such as dereliction of duty by hidden severity and the use of rights in their hands, these problems are still tolerated and exist, because compared to what those officials four years ago did, the small mistakes they made now are nothing. The use of magic only makes some people who have made more mistakes in this bureaucratic system, but it has not changed the nature of its rights structure. Officials may become less greedy, but this does not mean that they have become more capable than before.
Zhao Zhenxue once naively thought that after arresting all the corrupt officials, the rest were those good officials, but now she knew that she was wrong and corruption was not the biggest drawback of the bureaucratic system. Debt on duty was the biggest problem of the bureaucratic system. The biggest problem with the bureaucratic system was not how many disadvantages it caused, but the problem was the ratio of benefits and disadvantages it produced.
Zhao Zhenxue once asked Carmel's Li Litian about this question. Zhao Zhenxue is still impressed by his answer. "Even if you can arrest all the officials who have problems, put them in prison, or behead them, just like Zhu Yuanzhang of the Ming Dynasty, but if you cannot let your successors use their talents, the maintenance cost of the entire system will inevitably continue to rise. When the whole society cannot bear this cost, it is the time when the entire system collapses."
The reason why Zhao Zhenxue is still insisting on doing her current work is that she believes that her approach is to delay the arrival of this time. She knows what the consequences of the collapse of the system will be like - this big country, which accounts for one-fifth of the world's population, will be controlled by the consciousness network overnight.
Yes, to this day, she still has not changed her original intention. Although she has joined the consciousness network to some extent. As a magic administrator in Z country, she does not have to pay 10% of the consciousness network to join the Internet, but can experience the every move of other members of the consciousness network. That is to say, among ordinary users of the consciousness network, she is an invisible existence. Zhao Zhenxue insists that even if the consciousness network has thousands of benefits, as a noble individual, she should not give up a completely noble state of thinking just for those benefits.
She is not just the only one who has the idea of Zhao Zhenxue, nor is she just appearing here to talk about several anti-consciousness network countries. In fact, four years ago, in Germany, it was also one of the countries with high density of consciousness networks in the world at that time. A professor at Heidelberg University made a similar prediction.
He said that if the consciousness network is regarded as a product and continues to develop at the current speed, this product will eventually completely monopolize our spiritual world in the future one day, and with the power of human beings, this monopoly cannot be broken. On one day in the future, it is likely that when a country's consciousness network users far exceeds non-consciousness network users, and what is even more terrifying is that all consciousness network users can "full understanding" each other because of the consciousness network. This understanding can even surpass the country, nation, and belief to form a mutual recognition in a higher sense. This sense of identity contains huge potential power. If it is not well guided, once it explodes in an unreasonable way, another extreme national idea may appear.
The professor's prophecy has shown some signs in the past two years. In Africa and West Asia, especially countries such as Iran, Somalia, Sudan, Nigeria, etc., which are extremely underdeveloped but extremely out of the current difficulties, they have regarded emerging things like consciousness networks as life-saving good things. Some of them have openly regarded citizens of every country as obliged to use consciousness networks, otherwise it would be a crime to be written into the law. 3∴35686688
Of course, the governments of these countries are doing this to consolidate their regime through the consciousness network. Of course, there is another meaning - they hope to win more "magic quotas" from Carmel in this way. After all, anyone with discerning eyes can see that in countries with more users of the consciousness network, Carmel will be allocated more magic accordingly. If you master magic, there is no difference between mastering nuclear weapons in this era, and the former has fewer technical restrictions when using it.
In the past two years, the war between all countries on earth almost stopped - even the Palestinian and Israeli sides, which once made people think that they had no hope of reconciliation, finally stopped in recent years. The title of world police no longer exists because the root of the war and hatred have disappeared with the expansion of the consciousness network. Even if someone forcibly launched a war, the soldiers of both sides would shoot each other and flow to each other. The professor in Heidelberg said right, a brand new, transcendent nation is slowly born on this planet.
If everyone wants to comment now, for now, in the country with the greatest actual political influence in the world, at some point, has quietly become Carmel.
Zhao Zhenxue is quite able to understand why Zhengfu tells such a lie now, because they have no choice. Everyone understands extremely clearly that the more people they use magic, the weaker the power of their rule, but they have to do so, because the consciousness network is like a wolf chasing them behind. If they move a little slower, they are likely to be swallowed.
Zhao Zhenxue knew that even if the leader is big or high, the thoughts in their hearts are probably the same as themselves, like the politics of other countries, and there is an irresistible panic in their hearts. Everyone knew in their hearts that the consciousness network is unstoppable, or in other words, the best time to stop it has passed. From the moment Carmel was established, the current ending was destined. What they did now was to try to delay the arrival of this last moment.
Reform requires motivation, and Carmel's emergence has become such motivation. Of course, some countries will run faster because of motivation, while some countries will let it go all the way because of lack of this courage.
Three years ago, several countries around Chad had repeatedly proposed to join the Consciousness Network Alliance, but because Carmel's political conditions were harsh - they did not recognize the ruling class of these countries' future privileges in the Consciousness Network, and even if the presidents of many small countries only want the identity of a full-power citizen, these proposals were finally abandoned. In recent years, there have been constant uprisings in these countries, and even the anti-political (harmony) government armed forces publicly proposed to ask Carmel to provide magical assistance. In return, they will join Carmel unconditionally after the war.
However, based on the "cooperation treaties" signed by Carmel with major countries before, there is one of them. Carmel will never interfere in the internal affairs of any country. Under this premise, Carmel politely rejected their kindness and told them that if they eventually succeed in the uprising and take control of the regime, Carmel will warmly welcome their joining at that time.
From a traditional political perspective, it is too rigid to make such a decision by Carmel's leadership. According to the "political experience" of the people on earth, political commitments such as treaties were drafted to facilitate future tearing. As long as there is sufficient interests, nothing is absolutely necessary to be followed. But it has to be admitted that it is precisely this stupidity that has won a certain reputation for Carmel in the world. This self-binding performance has also made many doubtful countries relieved.
...
In just over half an hour, Zheng Jianguo said that he had passed his long sound. When the car finally stopped, the heavy rain outside the window had already stopped for most of the time, leaving only some sporadic raindrops dripping along the eaves.
When the two policemen were escorting Zheng Jianguo out of the car, he raised his neck and finally looked at the national emblem hanging high above and hazy in the darkness. At this moment, he felt the guilt and annoyance deep in his heart that he had never experienced for a long time. He had never felt like he was now, and his life was not worth it!
The two policemen quickly escorted him into the interrogation room, but Zhao Zhenxue did not follow up. According to the procedures, she could not conduct self-conscious interrogation before the other judges arrived. However, according to convention, she would use routine interrogation to understand some of his basic situations during this period.
After Zhao Zhenxue sat down, he ordered one of the police to uncuff Zheng Jianguo. Zheng Jianguo's mood seemed much better than when he first brought him into the car. After his hands were free, he asked politely, could he swear? Zhao Zhenxue nodded to the policeman, so he lit one for Zheng Jianguo.
In the storm of smoke, Zheng Jianguo asked softly, "Xiaoxue, how is your father's health recently?"
Zhao Zhenxue didn't smoke four years ago, but at this time, she was used to asking the guard for a "lucky, during the physical examination this year, the doctor said that everything was fine except for a little high blood pressure."
Zheng Jianguo nodded, "It's good to be healthy. In this era, everything you say is fake. Living healthy and healthy is better than anything else. By the way, you are too old, you are almost 28, why haven't you found a partner yet?"
Zhao Zhenxue blew up the smoke ash and smiled self-deprecatingly, "Which man has you seen like a man who likes a smoke."
"You are so beautiful, and haven't you ever talked to anyone in the past few years?" Zhao Zhenxue has seen many people like Zheng Jianguo now. After coming in, a person who usually looks very tight-mouthed will suddenly become very talkative and want to find topics. This is a good phenomenon. This shows that the psychological defense line of the interrogation object has been opened. He has the hope of confide, but it just needs appropriate preparations.
"No," Zhao Zhenxue replied, and then joked again, "I'm afraid no man would be afraid that his mind would be clearly controlled by his friends." After saying that, Zhao Zhenxue glanced at Zheng Jianguo with a little meaning.
But Zheng Jianguo seemed to have not paid any attention.
"What a pity, my unsatisfactory son..." Zheng Jianguo mentioned his son again, and soon, he suddenly had a high quality and said to Zhao Zhenxue with a little excitement, "If he comes back in the future, you are not married yet, so why not be a daughter-in-law for my old Zheng family."
Zhao Zhenxue originally wanted to tell him in person that his son was killed in front of him and that he was one of the most important accomplices, but when she raised her head and looked at Zheng Jianguo, who was full of white head, she looked at him with a smile on his face. Finally, she didn't say anything, but just gave him a smile, "Okay."
Zheng Jianguo also smiled, "I really envy your father, I gave birth to such a good nv son."
"I really sympathize with you. I gave birth to a scum like Zheng Qing." Zhao Zhenxue said in her heart, but there was no expression on her face.
Zheng Jianguo looked at her again, and then took the initiative to return the topic to himself. "I heard that everyone who comes to you has any tricks, and they can't hide it even if they want to hide it, right?"
Zhao Zhenxue nodded.
"It's great!" Zheng Jianguo lay on the back of the chair, closed his eyes, and looked in the air like reverie, "Do you know, seeing you now, I remember myself when I was young. If magic appeared thirty years earlier, I'm afraid that it would not be you, but me, who is sitting in your position now."
Zhao Zhenxue still didn't say anything, just waited quietly for Zheng Jianguo to say more. Speaking would gradually relax his psychological alert, which would be beneficial to the subsequent conscious judgment.
"I didn't catch up with the good times," Zheng Jianguo sighed, "If this continues, it will probably be possible in less than thirty years."
It's really ironic that the arrested prisoner was blindly optimistic, but as a judge, she was filled with uncertainty. "Maybe," she said.
In the past four years, except for the issue of corruption, other problems in China have not been completely improved, just like four years ago. Although Carmel's huge orders for alloy plates are received every year, and the world economy has also experienced a new round of economic growth with Carmel's intervention, or the "magic technological revolution", and countries have experienced a new round of economic growth, but the domestic situation has not improved as a result.
The current housing prices in the three largest first-tier cities in China have even surpassed Carmel in theory. The next step may be comparable to several permanent cities in geosynchronous orbit, so they are nicknamed "space houses". Due to the emergence of magic power, the cost of electricity has dropped sharply. In recent years, many automobile companies around the world have begun to develop cars powered by electricity. International oil prices have been stimulated by this and have been lowered several times in succession, from seventy or eighty dollars a barrel four years ago to less than fifty dollars at present, which has almost fallen by half. But ironically, the prices of domestic gas stations have risen instead of falling, and have reached...
Due to the intervention of "magic electricity", the international power generation cost has spread from about US$0.7 per kilowatt-hour to less than 0.5 now. That is to say, magic has saved nearly one-third of the cost of the current world's electricity. If it weren't for the energy security considerations of many countries, this cost would continue to decline. Zhao Zhenxue knew that in Carmel, this cost is almost 0, and residents' electricity is free.
In China, power systems across the country have held dozens of electricity price hearings in total based on the reason why "magic electricity" suppresses conventional electricity, resulting in an increase in power generation costs. The results of each hearing...
Because of the emergence of Carmel Space Mén, almost all the investment in the railway system in China was ruined a few years ago, but the common people were still very happy because after the price of Carmel Jiāotong Company's second-level range was reduced, the fee for traveling to the space Mén was almost the same as the train ticket. Ironically, in order to reflect its presence, a certain department suggested to the central government on the grounds of national security to cancel the space Mén in some cities and impose additional taxes on Carmel Jiāotong Company's "Mén Tickets". This tax is said to be used to subsidize the domestic railway system...
In view of the above phenomena, Zhao Zhenxue does not believe that ** will be given priority in China rather than Carmel. In fact, according to some news reports, Carmel has actually considered some prototypes of ** - almost 80% of the jobs are provided by the state, and everyone can ensure the most basic living needs. The only thing is that it is not yet reached the stage of "distribution on demand".
If this scope is narrowed to Carmel's plenipotentiary, Zhao Zhenxue will admit that perhaps, Carmel has really done it.
Seeing the expression on Zhao Zhenxue's face, Zheng Jianguo asked back, "What, don't you believe it?"
Zhao Zhenxue shook her head, "I don't know, but I think I'm not as optimistic as you for the time being."
"But I probably couldn't see that day," Zheng Jianguo's face showed a hint of regret. At this moment, Zhao Zhenxue felt that the elder he had always been familiar with had a look on his face that he had never seen before, but he felt familiar and very intoxicated. "But you are still young, and you have time and opportunity."
I have seen this expression many times in Carmel, especially on the faces of the spellcasters whom I have seen the most. Sometimes, I can even see this expression from my face in the mirror. This expression is like the moment a person squirts out of smoke, but it is more relaxed and purer than squirts. This is the smile of an idealist.
"Xiaoxue, ask you a question." Zheng Jianguo said.
"Um."
"If you use that consciousness to interrogate me later, it turns out that your father is involved in the things I do. What would you do? Will you catch your father here like you catch me?"
"No, no," said Zhao Zhenxue, "if that is the case, I will apply for evasion."
As soon as Zhao Zhenxue finished speaking, the police outside the police opened the mén. He nodded at Zhao Zhenxue and reminded him, "Here you come."
Zhao Zhenxue knew that he was talking about other judges, so she got used to standing up and was about to walk outside the mén. However, when she walked to the mén, she turned back and asked Zheng Jianguo. She finally asked, "You just said, my father was also involved in your affairs. Is this true?"
Zheng Jianguo glanced at Zhao Zhenxue, "Anyway, you will know in a few minutes. What's the difference between knowing it before or late?"
Zhao Zhenxue shook her head, "If he is indeed related to this case, I will apply for recusation now." Zheng Jianguo did not understand that during the interrogation, the judge would inevitably put himself in his whole body and mind when conducting a "conscious investigation" of the judge. If what he said is true, it would have a great impact on Zhao Zhenxue, and it is likely to have a negative impact.
Zheng Jianguo grinned and shook his head with a smile. "No, your father is in politics and I am in the army. It is not a system. I just had a pure assumption. Judging from your appearance, if this situation really happens, you may find it difficult for you to accept it."
"No," Zhao Zhenxue shook her head again, denying his speculation, "I don't feel strange. Since I first started working in this job, I have already known that in this officialdom, there is unlikely to be an absolutely innocent person. You are no exception, and my father is the same. What you do will only have a gap in quantity. This is the system... or in other words, this is an official culture. You are both victims and participants of this culture. The reason why I ask this is because I am afraid that my feelings may affect the accurate judgment of this case."
When Tie Mén was locked up, Zheng Jianguo came back to his senses as if he was enlightened. When he recalled what Zhao Zhenxue said in the end, he suddenly realized that he was really old, not in his body, but in his heart.
He knew that something that he had lost in his life was now back, and the Yangtze River was pushed forward, and one was stronger than the other. It should be so, it should be so.
