A bustling trading house with a dazzling array of products makes shopping feel very leisurely. Zhang Yuan had to lament that human beings are still material creatures, and buying things will bring an inexplicable happiness.
Lin Xuanxuan looked at the big stone in Zhang Yuan's hand and couldn't help but smile: "The person selling this thing is a genius. He was able to fool you!"
"Where is the deception? It's just a simple transaction, and the price is not expensive."
As expected, these service industries still require intelligent life to provide services in person to make them interesting. If they are robots, they will lose a little meaning, no matter how smart the robot is.
It was fun, but before he knew it, Zhang Yuan felt that his legs were filled with lead and he was about to be paralyzed from exhaustion, especially holding a stone sculpture weighing dozens of kilograms, even though the power armor bore a lot of weight...
But Lin Xuanxuan was still so lively, running around and jumping around without any fatigue.
He felt a little regretful about going out for shopping, so he could only grit his teeth and persist. Wouldn't it be nice to lie at home eating junk food and playing with his mobile phone? However, this sentence must never be said...
Now she is clamoring to visit the so-called "Sky Music Art Exhibition Hall". Lin Xuanxuan said with longing: "This exhibition hall collects the music of different civilizations, not only hemispheric civilizations and human civilizations, but also music along the way. What kind of wonderful art can they create from each civilization they pass by?"
Hearing what Lin Xuanxuan said, Zhang Yuan couldn't help but sneered in his throat, "Art?"
He thought of the great art recognized by the galaxy, which is exploration, discovery, and knowledge! That is, the standard values common to the entire galaxy. This standard value system was developed by the Gaia civilization and is a very broad framework.
For example, in some civilizations, after meeting, it is etiquette to exchange reproductive cells with each other; some civilizations will also give part of themselves to each other to eat, and only eating is etiquette. These inexplicable rituals are incomprehensible to humans.
But with standard etiquette in place, it becomes a lot easier. When two interstellar civilizations meet, even if they don't understand each other at all, they can still act according to this set of standards and there will be no conflicts between them.
It can be seen that the Gaia civilization, which has established standards, is also a very philanthropic civilization. This set of standards has unconsciously reduced many disputes in the galaxy.
Along the way, the new human civilization has discovered that the art of most low-level civilizations is full of venting desires, and has no sense of beauty in his eyes...
But after saying "ha" for a while, Zhang Yuan seemed to realize something and quickly closed his mouth.
"Go, go, we just like listening to music! Great art!" In fact, he just wanted to sit there, sit motionless, and then put down the magnificent stone sculpture in his hand to take a rest.
But halfway through, a fanatical Hemisphere man suddenly appeared and rescued Zhang Yuan from Lin Xuanxuan's clutches.
"Professor Zhang... Professor Zhang, it's great to meet you here, great! I have many questions to ask you. Recently, there has been a good breakthrough in the issue of genetic memory... We You will be able to achieve your goals soon."
Genetic memory has always been the current key research direction, and it has been steadily advancing in the past thirty years.
When the hemisphere professor saw Zhang Yuan, he excitedly turned his head around his neck and kept shouting, attracting the attention of all the surrounding tourists.
Zhang Yuan quickly turned around and recognized this person as a genetic memory scientist. The two parties had met several times to discuss how to clone the ancestors of people in the hemisphere, and he was a colleague who had communicated with each other.
He recalled the other person's name and greeted him: "Hello, Markov! Are you taking advantage of the vacation to come here to play?"
"Yes... On the next sixth day, we will have a special seminar. I have some new ideas. Please listen to them... The progress in these years has been so great that it is beyond our imagination. . The great dream of our entire civilization is about to be realized! Whenever I think of this, I am so happy that I can't sleep. I can only give myself electronic hormones to fall asleep!"
"Then you need to pay attention to your health!" Zhang Yuan said.
The hemisphere man said frantically: "No, no, no, it doesn't matter... Applause!"
This time it stirred up a hornet's nest. A large number of people surrounded them on the roadside, and everyone's eyes widened.
Their great dream is about to come true, is it true? !
"Is it really going to succeed?"
"Really?!"
"A new saint! Our civilization is about to give birth to a new saint! A fifth-level civilization!"
"I know this Professor Zhang. He is indeed in charge of this work... Is it really going to be completed? Our dream of tens of thousands of years..."
Markov didn't bother to pay attention to these startled passers-by, and began to discuss with Zhang Yuan the technical difficulties of "cloning ancestors" and the future development direction, as if it would really succeed in the next second...
"We now encounter another problem...how do you think we should solve it?!"
"Well, that's it. From a principle level, there are still unknown mechanisms..."
Zhang Yuan didn't know whether he should answer or not. He just shouted in his heart that he was so unlucky. He could encounter such a thing even if he went out for a walk.
More and more aliens are crowding around. Even though many of them are completely laymen and cannot understand these questions, they are still eager to get answers.
This situation made Zhang Yuan dumbfounded. What was accomplished? It's far from what I imagined.
Hemispheric civilizations attach great importance to this issue. In the past few decades, with the joint efforts of both parties, the progress has been pretty good. From the initial 90% memory restoration degree, it has increased to 98%, which is much better than expected!
The original plan was to advance the progress bar by 1 percentage point every ten years, but it is now 98%, which is faster than expected.
It's no wonder that scientists from these hemispheric civilizations worshiped Zhang Yuan like fans when they meet a celebrity. In the first few years, it made him feel embarrassed. Now, as time has passed, he has become numb.
After listening to the other party's question, Zhang Yuan sighed: "But Mr. Markov, the last step is not so easy. You must know that this step is more difficult than the previous steps combined."
"I also know that you are in a hurry. There is an Aleph civilization outside that is forcing us to become a level five civilization as soon as possible. However, this kind of thing will not change due to subjective will."
Makov said: "Mr. Zhang, you are really too busy. You have to worry about this and that. I still suggest that we can finish this matter first... No, no, it is not a suggestion, but ask..."
"As long as you focus on this matter first, you will be able to complete it as soon as possible."
"applaud!"
A tsunami of applause.
When Lin Xuanxuan saw this scene, she could only smile secretly and stand aside very politely. As a qualified wife, she naturally knows when to give her husband enough rights and freedom.
Zhang Yuan bit the bullet and was a little tired of dealing with so many fanatical Hemisphere people: "...There is no way to guarantee this. There is really no way. My ability is limited by myself. The ability to achieve results depends on the entire team. And you know Scientific development is a step-by-step process and cannot be achieved overnight."
"There are still many difficulties with the latest progress... We will try our best, but we cannot make a promise."
This Markov shouted and clapped for fear of chaos in the world, completely falling into fanatic mode.
Zhang Yuan shook his head. It would take a long time to explain each question. He actually didn't want to waste time here because he would have to explain it again at the meeting in a few days. Why bother...
