Regarding the issue of cooperation between the two sides, it needs to be considered very carefully. Li Zhendong took the lead to stand up and questioned: "I have no objection to contacts and negotiations between civilizations, but the most important thing is the issue of safety. After we provide what the other party is trying to obtain, will we breed tigers? Help them get rid of After the predicament, turn around and deal with us?"
Captain Zhao thought for a while, and replied: "Even if you don't know what the other party's predicament is, I think the probability of turning around after the transaction is not high. We are helping the other party. In the process, many things can be controlled. For example, if we can produce a commodity on a large scale, but they can only produce it in a small amount, when the people on the other side get used to the commodity, then the right to speak in this aspect will gradually be in the hands of We have it."
"And with the expansion of communication, the result of war will be lower... After all, war is not of great benefit to everyone." "
Furthermore, what we need is time. The more time you give us, Our civilization will become stronger and stronger, there is no doubt about it..."
"Our potential and heritage should be higher than the other party imagined."
Everyone nodded indisputably. People still have this confidence.
Zhang Yuan stood up and asked again: "So, what can they trade? We can't help them for nothing?" "Or, what do
we need?"
After some discussion , people have discovered that there are many things that can be exchanged in this regard, including academic knowledge, some common sense of the universe between interstellar civilizations, and even... possible alien technology!
The first interstellar civilization "Enlightenment Civilization" may have stayed for a short time because it was too old, and the Gliese Civilization did not know much information.
But the second civilization helped them cross from the stone age to the electricity age hand in hand, so there must be closer communication.
The Gliese civilization should know the relevant knowledge of the universe.
Yes, common sense of cosmic sociology, something that human beings are very lacking in!
The 200,000-year history of the Bigliese civilization has been visited twice by a more powerful interstellar civilization. The history of the rise of human beings is only ten thousand years old. There are no serious records of alien civilizations visiting the earth. .
No one can figure out whether the nonsense that appears on the Internet is real or just to attract attention.
The only well-founded record is the dialogue between Zhang Yuan and the Gaia civilization. But at that time, he was locked in the virtual space, and he chatted with the artificial intelligence Yita through the screen, and the amount of information was too little.
The second point, in addition to the common knowledge of cosmic civilization, the second thing that can be exchanged is mathematics that the other party is proud of, and other subjects, including various arts and entertainment.
Zhang Yuan once cheated a mathematical paper in the confrontation with the super life Zero-XZ. This paper solved a difficult problem that humans have never solved from a very novel angle.
A thesis cannot bring about qualitative changes in human civilization, but it can give a glimpse of the leopard. The thinking between different civilizations must be different, and there must be great reference value between these thinking.
As for the third point, in the process of helping this civilization, human beings will receive a lot of positive feedback.
The process of production can accumulate a lot of experience, and it cannot be wasted work.
Zhang Yuan finally added this sentence: "Resources are definitely not very valuable things in the universe. What is valuable is information, knowledge, and long-term accumulated experience." "Even if there is no good deal, just getting to know the other party
better It is also good to have more history and improve our new civilization historiography."
In this way, after this discussion, everyone decided to send a real human high-ranking official as an "ice-breaking trip" between the two civilizations to negotiate the details. cooperation matters.
"Let me go."
Zhang Yuan took over this task without hesitation!
The current Ministry of Foreign Affairs is short of talents, with two or three big cats and small cats, and the right to speak is simply not as good as the Ministry of New Civilization Development, which has real power. Zhang Yuan can be regarded as the real power figure in the spaceship. Captain Zhao sits in the rear and develops productivity; Zhang Yuan goes out for diplomacy, which can be regarded as a choice with a clear division of labor.
After the meeting ended, the communication staff quickly transmitted a series of information about "high-level human beings decided to visit" using electromagnetic waves.
Not long after, the Earth Times received another reply from the other party.
"Dear human civilization, I very much welcome the visit of the high-level leaders of your civilization. Please allow us to prepare for a period of time to build a larger ecological park. It is estimated that it will take one to two months. We believe that the first batch of ice-breaking trips , still focusing on art, science, and cultural exchanges...
"I hope your civilization can select more relevant candidates. "
" This is no problem. "
Captain Zhao nodded and said, "We also need a month to prepare for the screening of various personnel. Zhang Yuan, I will leave the rest of the work to you. "
...
Within 6 hours, the news about the peace talks quickly spread throughout the entire spaceship and became the most popular topic!
For the folk groups, generally speaking, there are more joys than sorrows, and even held a
In these years, the cloud of war has been hanging over people's hearts. In addition to producing weapons, they still produce weapons, so that people's quality of life is compressed to a very low level, and even the period of hibernation Days can't be compared...
But in the face of the threat of an unknown alien civilization, even though some war weariness has been generated, ordinary people dare not complain. Just
kidding, this is not a racial civil war. If it is a racial civil war, Even if the war is defeated, there is still the possibility of surrender. In modern society, no matter what, it is impossible to massacre civilians.
But alien wars are not necessarily the case... As far as the subconscious mind of many people is concerned, if a war breaks out with an alien civilization, either you die or I die, and it is difficult to say surrender. If you lose the battle, maybe you will perish!
So even if the days are tough, you can only endure it by force.
But having said that, except for some natural war lunatics, who would want to fight life and death all day long?
Who doesn't want better days?
Therefore, after the rumors of peace negotiations spread, even though there were various skeptics on the Internet, the main comment was "can contact or contact first", and direct war is definitely the worst choice.
Some people even think that allowing the government to back down a bit, as long as it is not a matter of principle, if it can buy time, it is not bad.
As a result, this statement triggered another wave of verbal wars. "Necessary concession" has become "surrender" in some people's remarks, and I don't know what these guys are thinking.
People from the Propaganda Department hastily refuted the rumors that the new civilized government cannot directly surrender, which violates the principles of human beings...
In short, the problem of public opinion is not too big, and most people still believe in the government's decision-making. We are all grasshoppers on the same rope, we all prosper, and we all lose.
Internet public opinion control is not strong, as long as it is not fabricated rumors to incite people's hearts, the Internet police will not arrest people at will under normal circumstances... With
such a small population, the government's action is still very high, as the production line begins to adjust rapidly , There is no need to stockpile living supplies on a large scale anymore. On the fifth day after the news of the peace talks, some government workers sold the large amount of living supplies they had originally stored to the public at low prices.
There was a long queue outside the supermarket, but there were no people jumping in or looting.
The people were chatting and laughing, even if they only bought a little synthetic meat, they were still in a great mood.
On the other hand, in the central square of Area A, a large number of diplomats are being recruited to complete this "ice-breaking trip"!
