Deep Space Planet Leader
Chapter 2
The driverless electric car is running on the road, and Zhang Yuan calms down his inner mood.
In the 23rd century, it is an era that attaches great importance to IQ, but the attribute of "appearance" is still important in interpersonal communication. Good looking people have certain advantages in their own development, both men and women.
Zhang Yuan feels that... He looks good. It should not be narcissism, because relatives and friends say so. In addition, it is indirectly proved by the good luck from small to large.
As for the lack of girls around him, it is because he was determined to be an astronaut since childhood, so he consciously suppressed this demand.
"There are many girls chasing me back..."
There is less than a month''s holiday. Such a short time is only the mutual attraction between hormones, and it is impossible to have spiritual communication.
Of course, it''s not difficult to find girls to complete physiological communication. If it is agreed in advance that it is just for fun, there will still be a lot of "modern women" willing to have a story with "astronauts", indicating that they may become the capital to boast with their companions in the future
In this open age, few people care whether their future marriage object is a virgin.
However, Zhang Yuan doesn''t like the random appointment.
Suddenly, the mobile phone vibrated.
He clicked on his cell phone. It was a spam message.
Because I never bother to tidy up, there are a lot of unread red dots on it.
[your 4 mobile phone contacts set you as "secret love object" on [about]. Since you haven''t registered yet, special SMS is used to inform... Download address...]
Soft advertising is annoying. It still can''t get rid of these things in the 23rd century.
"Forget it, forget it."
He is not an old hand in love. Since he can''t be too ruthless, there is no need to increase his emotional burden before leaving.
After skipping this memo, Zhang Yuan felt much more comfortable.
Unmanned cars are driving on the road in no hurry or slow. The cars on the road are very orderly. Almost all of them move forward at the same speed. There are no barbaric acts such as jumping in line or adding traffic.
In terms of driving cars, artificial intelligence is more reliable than human beings, and manual driving in non emergency situations has become an illegal action.
Zhang Yuan is not a rich second generation. This unmanned car is not his own. It''s just a shared taxi on the side of the road. Anyway, it''s on call. It''s no different from his own car.
A space history documentary is playing on the film and television screen in the car.
"... along the way, we walked through mud and ups and downs. Exploration and development will always be the main melody of the times..."
He watched the documentary with great interest.
It has to be said that the development of modern science and technology is far slower than that in the old era.
When Americans first landed on the moon in 1969, many scientists were optimistic that humans could colonize the moon in 2000; In 2020, mankind will occupy the solar system and become a real interstellar civilization.
Humans will find the legendary aliens, collide with alien civilization, and have artificial intelligence generate self-consciousness to resist humans
As a result, I''m sorry.
Throughout the 21st century, there is nothing.
There is no brain chip, no singularity era brought by strong artificial intelligence, and no immortality technology.
The cost of virtual imaging technology is still high; Ar glasses, which tried to replace mobile phones, were popular for some time and were eliminated because of inconvenience; Battery capacity can never meet the demand; Room temperature superconducting materials have not been invented yet
Not to mention curvature engines, wormholes, time travel, and anti gravity.
In a comfortable life, human beings seem to have reached the upper limit of the whole civilization. The progress of Informatics has created the illusion that science is still booming, paralyzing human nerves.
Unfortunately, some crucial technologies have not been broken through.
Finally, at the end of the 21st century, the consumption of oil has led to a terrible energy crisis all over the world.
The two successive world wars have set back human society for a hundred years!
The whole 22nd century is gray, which is called the "gray age" by later people!
The bass in the documentary said in a magnetic voice: "fortunately, everything has survived. We explored the unknown and found a new direction..."
"Controlled nuclear fusion!"
"... with the successful ignition of the artificial sun and the vigorous development of space industry, space botany and nano materials, human civilization has ushered in the golden stage again!"
"In the second half of the 23rd century, we will open an unprecedented era of interstellar colonization!"
The documentary is very popular and has a bit of exaggeration. It is really enough to deceive some ordinary people.
Zhang Yuan shook his head and smiled again.
Nuclear fusion has indeed brought endless energy and changed the living situation of mankind, but it does not mean that all mankind can achieve a very rich life.
Because oil is not only an energy source, but also an important industrial raw material.
To give a few simple examples: without chemical fertilizers and pesticides, human grain production will be directly reduced by more than half.
Where do fertilizers and pesticides come from? Oil derivatives, of course.
Without acrylic, polyester, nylon and vinylon, the price of clothes has risen sharply. Most people can''t afford clothes and have to live naked.
Where do these chemical fiber products come from? The answer is oil derivatives.
Without petroleum derivatives such as petroleum solvents, chemical raw materials and lubricants, more than 90% of industrial plants are shut down directly.
"Oil is the lifeblood of industry", this sentence is not false.
Although nuclear fusion energy is inexhaustible, it still has mining costs, power transportation costs and power station maintenance costs. If you want to use industrial means to forcibly synthesize inorganic matter into organic matter through electricity, the cost is still too high, which is far higher than that of exploiting oil in the old era.
Up to now, people in many small poor countries still can''t eat enough because of the lack of oil substitutes.
Fortunately, the vigorous development of space botany is slowly curing human "oil dependence".
Many industrial raw materials, such as polymer fiber, ethylene, benzene, methane and so on, can find substitutes from space mutant plants, which can be planted on the ground on a large scale.
Just as the president of a small country shouted: "praise space botany, and finally let us get rid of the survival crisis! Praise! "
……
An hour later, the unmanned car passed through the agricultural area, the industrial area and the urban area.
"Dear guest, we have arrived at your designated destination. The service time is 1 hour and 02 minutes, and the collection is 43 yuan... "
With the soft electronic prompt sound, Zhang Yuan paid to get off and went back to his home.
"It''s still comfortable at home."
He first took a cold bath, then turned on the computer, logged on to the notary office website, and clicked the "property donation" button on the website with great interest.
After thinking about it carefully, I photographed my house property certificate.
A line of information pops up on the page: "2236-9 Beiping street, Donghua City, with a room area of 163.3 square meters and an estimated value of 2.865 million federal dollars."
Donate your house to social welfare institutions!
Zhang Yuan took a deep breath and was a little reluctant. He felt that he had become a Legendary God and was forced to reward and dress at will
"Just donate it, brother is so noble!"
In fact, he is not good in ideology and morality.
Zhang Yuan has no children and no children. Since he is determined to leave the earth, can the property on the earth be brought to the spacecraft?
