Chapter 279 Civilization Soft Power
The meeting was over, but the crowd had not completely dispersed, and the two sides were bidding farewell. Zhang Yuan raised his head and felt a very subtle emotion through the dazzling starry sky above his head.
In these 44 years, humans have obtained not only a universal factory, but also many other things. In particular, in the process of helping each other, all citizens of the new human civilization developed a very strong sense of civilization pride.
This sense of pride has a great impact on contemporary people and the generations later. It is a national spirit that cannot be exchanged for no matter how advanced the technology or how powerful the productivity is!
If a civilization wants to rise in the starry sky, relying solely on technology, population, and productivity is still far from enough.
There must be a strong spiritual core as support!
This sense of pride and belonging today is a strong spiritual core, a kind of confidence in the values and social system of this article.
For example, if citizens of the new civilization return to the earth and live a very wealthy and frugal life with superior people, they will still feel uncomfortable, feel bad in this way or that, and think that this civilization is not as good as their own civilization.
This is a kind of soft power of the new human civilization.
Even this soft power is likely to have a very profound and positive impact on the future "wandering plan", which is also a very great added value.
Zhang Yuan chatted with Gan Yaduo, the captain of the first generation of Glitz civilization.
"His Excellency Gan Yaduo, the topics just now are just some technical experience, which is equivalent to the external skill of a civilization. Now, from a private perspective, I have a few suggestions, you might as well listen to them."
"Please say it."
Their personal relationship was quite good. Gan Yaduo raised his head and looked at Zhang Yuan with two black eyes.
Zhang Yuan solemnly said, "First point, your civilization and the ideology of the people tend to be lazy, which is partly caused by working and rest habits. But there is another more important point, economic distribution issues..."
"Maybe it is because the productivity of universal factories is too high, so everyone can enjoy good days without working. Unintentionally, all the population has become lazy."
"In your Goer City, those who are capable and those who are not capable enjoy the same treatment. The whole society has heavy taxes and high welfare. This is called equality for everyone, right?"
"It's true... our welfare benefits are quite high." Gan Yaduo said with a little confusion.
A high welfare society can almost be said to be the most proud point in Goertek, and it has attracted a large number of talents from other cities for this reason. Other cities are dictatorial systems, with different levels of people, and inferior people cannot have high social welfare.
"Yes, this is the problem...but the so-called high welfare society must not be applicable on a different planet. At least it is not applicable at the beginning."
Zhang Yuan shook his head, "When we were on the spaceship, we would eat big pot meals together. Because of the greater survival pressure and the conditions were a little harder, the people would not complain too much."
"But when we arrive on a planet, we solve the initial survival problem. When productivity is not enough to meet the needs of the people, it is impossible to maintain a high welfare society. There must be a distinction between different levels."
"If the resources obtained by those who are capable are exactly the same as those of the public, it is another unfair. If you still eat a big pot of rice, then where will the enthusiasm for work come from?"
"I even suggest that you implement a centralized system with more centralized power, even if you are dictatorial, it is okay. On a different planet, action is more important..."
"The development of alien planets has been rushing against time, and decades have passed in a flash. Even if the wrong policies are issued, it is better than not promulgating policies!"
Gan Yaduo was stunned for a while, this is indeed a truth.
Food in the parent planet can be obtained almost everywhere, and everyone’s life is guaranteed. But when you arrive at a bare alien planet, where can you get the guarantee?
There is not enough industrialization, and when the equipment ages, there is only one word left - death!
