Deep Space Fleet

Chapter 147: Endless Progress

In this waiting and anxiety, three months passed. The scientific council, the supreme authority of the Earth Age, was finally officially held.

This session of the meeting is quite grand. Knowing that the earth's civilization has entered the "trough of mediocrity", everyone wants to find a solution to prevent new civilizations from falling into the same trap.

In particular, the new civilization is still in its infancy, that is, the "seed stage", and it has become easier to make some major changes.

People without long-term considerations must have near-term worries. This long-term concern is likely to be in a corner that human eyes cannot reach after thousands of years. But if you want to become a truly powerful civilization, you must have such foresight!

The meeting was crowded with people. In theory, staff above the fifteenth level had the right to vote.

Zhang Yuan met many old acquaintances here, including Academician Ding, Brother Zhao, Brother Luo, etc., as well as the gray-haired Captain Ma.

This captain may be the fastest aging person in the spaceship. The years have left a series of wind and sand on his face, and the wrinkles on his face are like deep ravines.

When Zhang Yuan saw him last time, he was still a middle-aged man, but now, he is already an old man.

People with higher status wake up more frequently, including his teacher, Academician Ding, who also ages much faster than himself.

"Zhang Yuan! Oh, no, it's already Dr. Zhang." The captain patted him on the shoulder lightly, and smiled gently: "Do you have any special thoughts about the history of new civilization?"

"There are some mathematical papers I want to show you...it's just my personal thoughts." Zhang Yuan dug out some draft calculations stored in his mailbox, some of which were mathematical models about the history of new civilizations.

"These published contents, I have already read them." The captain looked at these documents carefully, "I want to ask you about your specific political position. If the decision we made violates the current ethics, then How should I choose?"

Zhang Yuan pondered for a few seconds, and said firmly: "I only obey the calculation!"

"If the calculated result is the global optimal solution, then why do we need a political standpoint? Can the humble wisdom of human beings really manage the entire civilization? It's like a computer playing Go. The seemingly bad chess may be played in one place. After a hundred hands, it becomes a peerless chess game. This kind of calculation is the wisdom that human eyes can't reach."

Captain Ma couldn't help laughing, then shook his head slightly.

"If everyone could see as clearly as you, how simple the world would be!"

About a quarter of an hour later, after everyone arrived, Captain Ma came to the stage, and said straight to the point in a slightly old voice: "Everyone, I won't say too many polite words."

"The purpose of our meeting is: how to build our civilization into an extraordinary civilization!"

"Maintaining the low entropy of a civilization and advancing endlessly is our fundamental goal and the true meaning beyond the value of life!"

"No one wants our descendants to be the same as the earth's civilization."

"But the truly extraordinary civilization has been on the right path from the very beginning. How should we, human beings, do this?"

The venue gradually became silent. Many people had been preparing for a long time, but they didn't want to be the first to speak.

Zhang Yuan looked up at his teacher. Academician Ding just sat quietly in his seat without saying anything.

"Then, let me throw a brick to attract jade first..."

Professor Lin Fangzheng, the chairman of the scientific council, stood up, "I'm putting forward a point of view here, calling it the social public support system..."

Professor Lin Fangzheng sent a document to the big screen.

First of all, the first point is to deprive everyone of their reproductive rights, and it is a crime to give birth to children in private.

The second point is to establish a system for raising children by the whole society. The next generation of children will be hatched from the artificial womb, and the government departments will be responsible for education and training.

Third, establish a strong planned economic system. This kind of planned economy is different from that of the old era. Instead, it uses big data to conduct comprehensive overall planning.

Just such a simple three, soon caused a big wave!

Zhang Yuan saw that the big brother sitting in front was blushing and had a thick neck. He was obviously greatly stimulated, and even his breathing became short of breath!

"Professor Lin, do you have any basis?" Soon, someone stood up and retorted.

Unacceptable, except for the third point, almost 90% of people cannot accept the other two points.

It is the nature of human beings to survive and reproduce. It can be said that half of human behavior is governed by the philosophical concept of "reproduction".

The family structure linked by blood relationship has been proved by the history of mankind for millions of years to be a very stable social system.

Cut it off now, so what?

In particular, the Scientific Council is the highest authority of the new civilization, and it is impossible to make any jokes here. Once the decision is passed, it must be implemented!

"There is no special basis, but the calculation of the new civilization history can prove that its general direction is positive. For our civilization, this is enough, isn't it?" Professor Lin smiled lightly.

"If you have to conduct social deduction, I can say this..."

"Class is the source of conflicts of interest."

"Destroying the concept of the next generation, class will cease to exist. All children born will achieve true equality, and no one will be able to rest on the credit book. Without the concept of clan, there will undoubtedly be a lot of corruption reduced."

"Secondly, the social structure of the family to raise children is no longer suitable for the interstellar era and the extremely high productivity situation...Can ordinary parents really guide the next generation? Unfortunately, many parents fail. Flawed parents raise flawed children."

Before Professor Lin finished speaking, a woman stood up immediately. She was very emotional and spoke very fast.

"Professor Lin, the more humane technology is, the more likely it is to be developed in a normal society, and the society will be more stable and healthy because of this! That kind of anti-humanity policy will either not get the opportunity to develop, or it will disappear after it is developed. Drop! This policy cannot last long!"

"Procreation is the nature of human beings rooted deep in the genes. How can you eliminate it without causing turmoil in the entire society."

Professor Lin smiled, as if she knew what she would say, "Actually, it's not as unacceptable as you imagined. Many families on the earth are already DINK families. They don't want to have children. It's not bad to live in a two-person world." .We just want to extend this measure to the entire civilization."

"However, childbirth is the fundamental right of human beings!" The lady's voice suddenly became louder. "Do you know what will happen if the right to enjoy family affection is deprived? What is the meaning of human struggle?"

The debate became more and more intense, and there was a buzz in the conference room.

Professor Lin said lightly: "There is nothing that prevents you from enjoying family affection. You can continue to find a husband who loves you and stay with you for the rest of your life. However, you do not have the right to raise the next generation. If you really like children, you can engage in specialized education Work."
