#229 - Salted fish competition struggle

Indeed, human progress requires the introduction of a competitive mechanism.

Without competition, humans are no different from salted fish.

At most, the salt is sprinkled a little slower, so the salted fish is not so salty.

To put it bluntly, but absolutely truthfully, human technological development is like pressing "accelerate" during wartime.

Moreover, the larger the scope of the war, the greater the "acceleration multiplier" is.

It's just that the price to pay for this kind of technological acceleration is too great, and the pain left to people may not be eliminated in a lifetime.

Even the previous Cold War, although it did not cause the great destruction of the world, it also made many people live in inexplicable fear.

In addition, the two countries have been publicizing each other's horror, so even after the crisis was resolved, many people still felt that a large number of deadly nuclear bombs would fly from the other side one day.

However, after the crisis was resolved, without a strong enemy,America slowly entered a salted fish state, and even engaged in counter-insurgency warfare by messing around.

When a beast does not compete with another beast for territory, nor does it hunt cattle and sheep, but instead hunts small mice, this kind of contrast makes the beast even unable to command its claws and teeth flexibly.

And suffered a loss.

Anyway, after that, the whole world entered a salted fish state.

It was not until the revival of another country that the world slowly withdrew from the salted fish state, or rather, a participating country dragged the world out of the salted fish state.

If nothing unexpected happens, the world will enter a cold war state again in some time.

And all of this was broken by the arrival of "aliens".

Or rather, broken by the unknown.

"The unknown" is sometimes more frightening, worrying, and tense than aliens.

The horror of horror movies comes from the unknown.

The plot of urban movies is almost like that, at most a car suddenly rushes out and kills you, but you know what a car looks like, so in terms of fear, what you should fear is death.

But horror movies are different. The art design of many horror movies is very free, and a thing you have never seen before but is extremely terrifying suddenly rushes out in the dark, enough to scare people to stand on end.

With "unfamiliar strangers", even if the people of the global village have competition, they are initially consistent with the outside world, even if they are consistent with the outside world in the competition.

But how long this "external" time can last is unknown, which should be related to the strength and good and evil of the "strange strangers".

After Tianxia(天夏: another name of China) made a heavy bet,America was unwilling to lag behind, and announced its latest decision early the next morning.

They will use the Event Horizon Telescope program to find that unknown probe, and the configuration will be better than the last time they searched for black holes.

And the task funding of 1 billion US dollars will definitely be paid, but considering that a large amount of funds will take time to raise, 10 million US dollars will be paid in the early stage.

The rest will arrive soon.

The two heads of the earth have spoken, and they will look for the unknown probe in different ways, and evenAmerica, who speaks big words every day, has really paid the money. Although the remaining 990 million may never arrive, it is very telling thatAmerica can do this in international affairs.

Therefore, other capable countries have also made efforts, those with money contribute money, and those with people contribute people.

Especially in the orbit of Mars, there are orbital probes from Tianxia(天夏: another name of China), Europa, Peacock Country(孔雀国: India), Petroleum Alliance andAmerica. Tianxia(天夏: another name of China) has decided to contribute all of the Tianwen-1 orbiter and let it consume valuable fuel to actively change its orbit to search for that probe.

Because the Mars orbiter is too precious, other countries will not do this, but they will provide some coordinates to allow Tianwen-1 to combine more information to search for that probe.

And they will temporarily suspend their Mars exploration missions and consume a little fuel to aim the probe's imaging equipment at the orbit.

The rest is waiting for a blind cat to run into a dead mouse.

The same is true on Earth. The equipment that does not consume too much resources is also allocated to the search channel. If the mission funding fromAmerica can be obtained, more manpower and material resources can be invested.

The Europa Space Agency is the most prominent in this regard.

It's not that they don't want to pay more money, it's just because they really don't have money. Their debt crisis is getting more and more serious. They are crazy to find money from other places to fill the hole. How can they take money out.

After being in the United Nations for so long, everyone knows that the more you invest, the bigger your face is.

And this investment also depends on strength. Not every country is qualified to invest. Your investment must match your national strength.

Some countries are still okay, but only have superficial strength, otherwise they would not be unable to come up with money and resources at this critical time.

Of course, there are some other reasons, for example, no one can be 100% sure that that thing is alien equipment.

Even if it is alien equipment, alien technology is also graded, right? If it cannot bring enough benefits, they will not invest.

The advantage of doing this is that the losses can definitely be minimized, and the disadvantage is that they cannot be the first to eat it after there are enough benefits.

The most ⊥ new ⊥ small ⊥ say ⊥ is ⊥ at ⊥ six ⊥ 9 ⊥⊥ book ⊥⊥ bar ⊥⊥ first ⊥ hair!

But with Tianxia(天夏: another name of China) andAmerica at the top, they could not have eaten the first batch of benefits, because no matter how much you invest, it is impossible to invest more than Tianxia(天夏: another name of China) andAmerica.

So, it's better to stay put.

After all, they are salted fish-like Europa, and the center of the world is no longer there.

It's generally not a good thing to be the first bird at this time.

"The gun hits the first bird" is not only a unique word in Tianxia(天夏: another name of China).

Sure enough, the biggest gun in the world spoke.

"Ladies and gentlemen, our situation is very dangerous!"

In the last bit of time in the morning,America sent a very eloquent congressman.

"Aliens have come to our solar system. We believe that human society can no longer be like before. We must unite..."

The word unity is quite interesting from the mouth of anAmerica congressman.

The people in the assembly hall did not speak, but watched his performance.

And this person did not disappoint others, and soon said his central idea.

Want technology!

The aliens are coming, and the future of mankind is in jeopardy, so he called on Navigator Company to make the technology of unmanned exploration ships public to the countries participating in the search for unknown probes.

Anyway, Navigator Company has contributed unmanned exploration ships, so it is better to directly make the technology public, so that other countries can also manufacture corresponding equipment, and human resistance to aliens can also be increased.

Of course, he is not asking Navigator Company to take out the technology for nothing. He suggests that countries contribute some funds to give Navigator Company some compensation.
