Out of the cage

In the main world of the 40th century, an important breakthrough in the "civilization bottleneck" was completed.

The production output value of Xinghai Pastoral has officially surpassed the economy of the inner ring of the solar system. Compared with the dimensional information processing economy of the inner ring of the solar system, these emerging "farming" and "weaving" are the basic industries that lay the foundation for the main world.

The cosmic technology of the main world is obviously different from that of the star plane. It surrounds a vast area around the star, and the cultivated star field is a Dyson ring in a broad sense.

In the old days, the Dyson technology system in a narrow sense was controlled step by step on the star body, from the "convection zone" to the "radiation zone" to the "nuclear reaction zone", layer by layer.

However, this is an oversimplified understanding and hypothetical plan of mankind in the 20th century about stellar engineering.

Similar to the misprediction of "aerospace technology" in the Middle Ages, it was believed that people could fly to the sky by learning from birds and flapping their wings.

Looking back at the past history of the main century, humans began to work on the Dyson ring project of the sun in the 29th century. By the 32nd century, the technology could only control the outer chromosphere. By the 33rd century, Qin Tianfang When he was king, he barely reached the convection zone and established a solar convective "information station" to control the size of flares. The movement trajectories of flares and sunspots on the solar surface began to be as symmetrical and neat as a circuit board.

The process of human beings conquering the inner region of the sun is like studying (boiling water) refrigerant engines in the ancient industrial era.

From the original steam engine, to diesel engines, and gas turbines for aerospace and trains. During those three hundred years, humans continued to approach the limits of electronic control of materials on the road to working fluid engines. But in the end, rotary refrigerant engines still have limits.

In the past seven or eight hundred years since the 33rd century, human beings have begun to approach the limit of solar control technology, just like sculpting a gas turbine. The further you go into the inner solar system, the more difficult it becomes for humans to maintain a stable creation configuration. We can only rely on the hard work of water mills and spend tens of thousands or hundreds of thousands of years to adjust the troposphere on the surface of the solar system to become more and more stable.

As a result, the time it takes to launch the solar project in the main world is getting longer and longer. The longer it goes, the unpredictability of human beings will make this type of plan unsustainable.

In past history, there was a cycle of ten thousand years! Not to mention human empires, even nations have risen and fallen several times. Main-sequence stars like the sun have not yet begun to fluctuate on large scales in time. Human civilization has not even seen the "solar aunt period" during the mass extinction period on the earth.

Moreover, the projects on the solar system require organization the deeper they go, and the demand for qualified "labor force" is increasing.

If we talk about the 21st century, if we want to independently develop a complete set of technologies for aerospace, space, and shipbuilding, we will need a country with hundreds of millions of people to provide a stable labor force for various positions. By the middle of the 21st century, traditional industrial powers such as Britain and France were unable to keep up with the most advanced technological competition in industrial competition due to insufficient monoculture populations.

Now as the carving of the sun goes deeper, something like this also appears. The cultivated "labor force", um, high-level will and thought, is increasingly unable to achieve its goals.

The diameter of the sun is 109 times that of the earth, and its mass is 330,000 times that of the earth. For such a large star, as a "low-temperature mold" growing on the surface of the earth, it is somewhat subjective to want to get involved in this high-temperature particle fire ball. (arrogant). As a low-temperature mold, it can at least proliferate in the vast universe.

The attempt of contemporary solar system wisdom: sufficient foundation must be laid by the expansion of the star field to maintain the progress of the star control engineering plan with a period of tens of thousands of years.

The foundation of civilization determines the upper limit of science and technology. The basis is "the scale of educated talent."

In the feudal era of the Middle Ages, there was no way to build a "tank industry line" in a handicraft area where thousands of people lived. Not to mention tanks, even large-scale siege equipment in the feudal era needed to be built on the basis of a city.

Only when thousands of people gather together and there is sufficient demand from everyone, will professional professions such as "carpenters", "blacksmiths", "stonemasons" and "groommen" be born.

In that era of small-scale peasant economy, only cities had craftsmanship passed down for two or three generations, which could support technologies such as armor, war horses, and catapults from retrogressing.

The foundation of modern chemical industry requires the population of dozens of cities to have a single identity basis (nationalism). Only in this way can we build the foundation of the coal and iron industry, open up a market dozens of times the local population, and develop the "automobile industry" and "dock and shipbuilding" Infrastructure industry.

In short, in the contemporary era, without Star Field, the population born on the small Earth, Mars, and Venus in the inner circle of the solar system would simply not be able to support the construction of such a large and complex artificial control system on the sun. What's more, the mainstream culture on the various planets of Mars, Earth, and Venus is still on the road to regional differences.

The Venusians laughed at the roughness of the Martians' lives in the sandstorm environment, and the Martians laughed at the sour smell of the Venusians. The environment of the planet has a subtle influence on the differentiation of human beings.

The vast "nurturing belt" like Xinghai Pastoral is engaged in "cars and documents in the same track". There is basically no difference in the environment of the ocean zone that provides natural people with development in all star nests. There is a steady stream of successors in the vast star belt. mission accomplished.

It is worth mentioning that the "new generation" in the Xinghai countryside today is a real rebirth, not a "regeneration and division" on the earth.

Although from the perspective of individual competition: the regenerated consciousness is relatively smart, the infinite accumulation of regeneration will cause some tiny loopholes to accumulate.

There is a similar example in biology. Although the cell tissue of the plant tip sprouts can continuously cultivate new sprouts, the sprout tip tissue will accumulate viruses if new sprouts are cultured repeatedly.

Therefore, maintaining the emergence of new generations is necessary for a group to maintain "natural adaptation".

The environment is changing, and perfect people are good at concealing it. Even if their teeth are knocked out, they are used to swallowing them. Everyone has a subconscious and clever avoidance, and the entire social group will suffer from deep disadvantages.

Just like a proverb in the 22nd century: No young man breaks his leg on a potholed road, but it does not mean that the road is fine. Only when everyone is exhausted and collectively overturns can they realize that this is a road of no return.

Of course, allowing the new generation to make mistakes is a luxury in a harsh society that seeks "praise." The teaching in kindergartens and primary and secondary schools in the inner circle of the solar system is completely suitable for the childhood of "regenerates". With the average number of prodigies on earth, the education system It is difficult to support the growth of the new generation of "bears" who are "ignorant".

Therefore, in the new consciousness of the solar system, the Xinghai Pastoral already accounts for 99%.

Tukang: People born in Xingtian are enlightened and raised. Although the will of regeneration is immature at the age of 100 for natural people, many of these skinny children will be more cheerful than me after they are 100 years old. Now these people who are better than others are not the "bonuses" of some people, but my successors.

…Of course, in every era of progress, there are always those who hold up banners and pretend to be false. …

When the inner circle of the solar system prospered in the 40th century, they increasingly emphasized that they "contributed to the opening of dimensions."

When Hoshida's first generation came of age, they joked to the "instructors" in the Inner Solar System who were good at arranging themselves: "How many of you cultural people have actually participated in the industrialization of the sun?"

During this process, Wei Keng blended in with the new generation and remained silent.

In the seventh plane war, Wei Keng and the will group of the Black Alliance fought to the death. As the Black Alliance gave in and quickly stopped, they understood that the waves behind the Yangtze River push the waves ahead, and the new generation will give a thorough blow to the decayed old things.

However, from the perspective of those "awakened people" from hundreds of years ago in the inner circle of the solar system, this generation of young people has been coerced by "pastorism" outside the solar system.

It may be ridiculous to say that when the "leadership" in the entire dimension was beaten back to the main world in the seven plane wars, - the mismatch between the "inner circle" and the "outer circle" in the solar system suddenly intensified.

Wei Keng: Because, in the past, I was fighting against the leaders of my era, and now it is them (Master Wei points at Xingtian) who are fighting against the guys who want to be leaders in this era (pointing to the inner circle of the solar system again). The future will be liberated. After all, it's still theirs.

Heroes are born in struggle, giving the world a breath of heroism! It is to pass the line of struggle to the successor. ——I don’t want to fight, I just want to enjoy peace. Oh, how can there be such a cheap thing in the world?
