The ever-expanding population exceeds the capacity of the earth, which is a very scary thing.
The ecological chain is deteriorating and non-renewable resources are disappearing. If this problem cannot be solved as soon as possible, the highly technologically advanced human civilization may also be destroyed.
Tarim Jupiter cannot be colonized for the time being, and Baoji Planet is at risk. When other colonial planets and space bases cannot transfer large numbers of people, the problem of rapidly expanding population is particularly serious.
Everyone looked at Zhou Xing in unison, expecting him to come up with a suitable solution.
Zhou Xing looked at everyone, took a deep breath, and replied: "There are no plans, but there are many problems that need to be solved."
Hearing this, everyone's spirits were shocked, their eyes lit up, and they were extremely surprised.
"Mr. Zhou, what are your plans?"
"Is there a new colonial star that can be opened?"
"Mr. Zhou, just ask if you have any questions and we will do our best to assist you."
Everyone looked at Zhou Xing excitedly and couldn't wait to ask questions.
Since human civilization entered the interstellar era, Zhou Xing has invented one new technology after another. Although it will have a huge negative impact on human society, when the impact is eliminated, the new technology will greatly promote the development of human civilization. The cooperation between the federal government and the Shining Star Group has resulted in huge benefits.
Upon hearing that Zhou Xing had a solution, everyone's eyes lit up with great anticipation.
Facing everyone's gaze, Zhou Xing smiled slightly and suggested: "I suggest implementing the one-household-one-ship plan to advance human civilization into a deeper interstellar age."
Hearing this, everyone was stunned, recovered, and looked at Zhou Xing in disbelief.
"One household, one ship, could it be..."
"No way! For such a huge plan, the federation will never be able to spend this money."
"Mr. Zhou, this project is unrealistic! Human beings' physical fitness cannot support our long-term living in the cosmic environment, nor do we have the economic conditions."
"Can it be done! One household, one ship, we don't have the ability!"
“…”
With a "crash", the conference room was in chaos. Everyone was shocked. They looked at Zhou Xing in disbelief and expressed their incomprehension.
"One household, one ship" is a special system of the fourth-level civilization of the Galaxy Alliance, a highly developed interstellar civilization. Because the home star cannot support an unlimited expansion of the population, or it has become accustomed to the life of the universe... After a combination of factors and other factors, they have been unable to survive for a long time. Born on a space battleship, the mother planet is no longer the survival carrier of interstellar civilization, and the internal communication of civilization is transferred to the star network.
Home planets, alien colonies, space parking ports, interstellar fortresses, etc., many fixed places have become facilities for temporary stays and no longer bear the function of long-term living.
It can be said that the one-household-one-ship system has completely changed the survival model of civilization that relies too much on the home planet.
However, to establish a "one household, one ship" system, the federal government needs to invest an unimaginable amount of money.
The human population has reached more than 50 billion. To meet the needs of this system, first of all, human civilization must build at least 5 billion spaceships to ensure the long-term survival of "one household" in the space environment. At least, a star must be built. The Yao II spacecraft costs about 20 million star coins. If mass-produced, one spaceship will cost at least 12 million to 15 million.
Five billion Xingyao II spacecraft, this investment is a desperate figure.
Moreover, even if the federal government is willing to pay such an astronomical sum, human society does not have enough shipbuilding companies to produce so many spaceships. Even if human civilization can build this number of spaceships to satisfy the "one ship per household" system, the federal government The government still has many hurdles that it cannot overcome.
First, humans are earth creatures. The genes in their bodies determine that their bodies cannot adapt to space, extreme low temperatures, no air pressure, no gravity, high radiation...etc., extreme environments. Second, human civilization is a social creature. Enter After the "one household, one ship" system, various inadaptations will definitely occur. Although human society can continue to "live in groups" through the StarNet virtual network, many predictable situations will still occur, such as mental problems. , marriage issues... etc. Thirdly, the "one household, one ship" system is not conducive to the cohesion of human civilization. At the same time, the proliferation of spaceships can easily attract alien civilization to human civilization...
In short, the "one household, one ship" system has many problems.
After entering the "one household, one ship" system, the earth will no longer be a "living coffin" that limits human civilization, but will become a spiritual "sanatorium".
Looking at the people caught in the commotion, Zhou Xing smiled and quickly reassured: "The 'one household, one ship' system is the inevitable result of the development of civilization to the late interstellar age, just like the cars and ships developed by human society in the earth age. Airplanes and these technological products are all means of transportation created by humans to serve themselves; after entering the interstellar era, the boundless space universe opens its arms to human civilization. Due to the limitations of space and time, transportation, residence, and The spaceship, which has multiple functions such as survival and exploration, is a good carrier for human civilization to survive in the universe. Therefore, in the near future, every family will have its own car just like having a car. Starship!”
As soon as Zhou Xing finished speaking, the officials looked at each other and smiled bitterly.
They agree with Zhou Xing's judgment, but this will take at least hundreds of years!
It has only been two hundred years since human civilization entered the interstellar age. How could it be possible to suddenly leap into the advanced and developed interstellar age
The federal president looked at Zhou Xing in surprise and asked puzzledly: "Can the Shining Star Group's shipbuilding capabilities reach this level?"
Hearing this, everyone focused on Zhou Xing's face, looking forward to his answer.
In just a few years, the Shining Star Group has built 100,000 second-generation intercontinental fleets and numerous Taishan motherships. If they can be transformed into civilian survival star spacecraft, this manufacturing efficiency cannot be ignored.
"No, the Xingyao Group's shipbuilding capacity will be used for the construction of the third-generation intercontinental ship and the Taishan mothership, and there is no time to build civilian spaceships." Zhou Xing smiled slightly and shook his head.
Hearing this, everyone sighed and couldn't help being disappointed.
"That's it! Then there's nothing we can do!" The federal president smiled bitterly.
Without a sufficient and cheap enough supply of spaceships, building a "one household, one ship" system is a completely unrealistic fantasy.
"How could it be! The Shining Star Group cannot meet the production of civilian ships, and other social capital can completely replace it! If the government takes the lead, the Shining Star Group transfers shipbuilding technology, guides the idle funds of the whole society, invests in the field of shipbuilding, and customizes reasonable The shipbuilding policy provides high subsidies for ship purchase, and the production capacity of civilian ships can be fully exploded!" Zhou Xing suggested with a smile as he looked at everyone.
"Really, Shining Star Group is willing to transfer the core technology of shipbuilding?"
"Mr. Zhou, are you serious? Shining Star Group is willing to give up the civilian spacecraft field?"
"What level of shipbuilding technology can Xingyao Group transfer?"
“…”
As soon as Zhou Xing finished speaking, the whole venue was in chaos. All the officials were blushing and asked questions excitedly.
After the "monster" Xingyao Group was born in human civilization, under the leadership of Zhou Xing, it deeply penetrated into many high-tech fields of human civilization, leading the technological level of all walks of life for more than a hundred years, involving various high-tech fields , business tax alone accounts for 50% of the federal government's fiscal revenue.
The shipbuilding field of the Shining Star Group is the cornerstone of human civilization. Now that human civilization has merged into the Galaxy Alliance, there has been a strong demand for interstellar trade. Therefore, transport spacecraft, interstellar spacecraft... various types of spacecraft are in short supply.
If Shining Star Group is willing to transfer its shipbuilding technology, it will definitely attract huge amounts of capital investment. By then, human civilization will surely erupt into a shipbuilding frenzy. Through funding matching and scale competition, the cost of spaceships will be greatly reduced, and the sales volume of spaceships will be reduced. By then, The federal government can obtain a large amount of fiscal revenue. At the same time, it issues ship purchase subsidies to promote the number of spacecraft in human society...
Through Zhou Xing's explanation, federal government officials have calculated in their minds the impact of this combination of punches on the civilization of human society.
"Well, since the Shining Star Group has to concentrate on developing military warships and cannot be distracted by manufacturing civilian spaceships, all the technologies required for civilian spaceships can be transferred. However, this technology transfer has a condition. The shipbuilding company that obtains the technology , we must ensure the mass sales of civilian spacecraft within a reasonable profit range and promote the construction of the 'one household, one ship' system." Zhou Xing smiled slightly and looked at the officials and replied.
After a pause, Zhou Xing added: "As for the specific details of technology transfer, I will ask Xiaozhi to make a list of technologies, as well as civilian spacecraft dock design drawings, industrial chain design... In short, these projects must be carried out as early as possible Implement it and strive to complete the construction of the 'one household, one ship' system in the shortest possible time."
Hearing this, everyone was refreshed and extremely happy.
According to Zhou Xing's statement, the Shining Star Group's technology transfer is so great that it has almost created a complete shipbuilding industry chain for the federal government and shipbuilding companies. Although it is only a civilian spacecraft, it happens to be the entire human civilization. Much needed upgraded industries.
"The sooner we establish the 'one household, one ship' system, the sooner the home planet can get rid of population pressure. Although the step is a bit big, the future is bright!"
"In the vast universe, once spacecraft become overpopulated, there will definitely be big problems with supervision. Star treks, interstellar piracy, illegal interstellar trade, etc., and other illegal and criminal activities will easily occur. Strict interstellar safety regulations must be strengthened..."
"Well, regarding the construction of the industrial chain of civilian spaceships, we must follow the principle of proximity to resource stars. It just so happens that the Federation has recently mastered a lot of mineral stars, and it is recommended to take the lead in developing the Kepler CT star. This galaxy has three rich mineral stars, forming a large-scale shipbuilding base…”
“…”
As soon as Zhou Xing finished speaking, the venue immediately fell into a heated discussion. All the officials rushed to express their opinions. They were all excited and ecstatic.
Zhou Xing mentioned the construction of the "one household, one ship" system, which immediately hit the hearts of federal officials. If they can cooperate with the work of the Shining Star Group, major shipbuilding companies can complete technology transfer and upgrades, and when interstellar trade breaks out on a large scale, Against this background, the field of civilian spacecraft manufacturing is bound to usher in a new life. It may not be long before human civilization enters the interstellar era in which every household has a spaceship.
Seeing the scenes of the officials being in high spirits and having heated discussions, Zhou Xing could not help but breathe a sigh of relief with a smile on his face.
"One household, one ship" is more suitable for the officials. Then the two policies of increasing the immigrant population of Baoji Planet and developing Tarim Jupiter can finally come to an end for the time being.
The price is that the Shining Star Group withdraws from the field of civilian spaceships. However, this price is still bearable. In the case that Zhou Xiaozhi's computing power cannot be greatly improved, the Shining Star Group should focus on the construction of military warships. The construction of civilian spaceships can be used Funds from the whole society will accelerate the development of human civilization into a developed interstellar civilization.
The following topics of the meeting discussed the civilian spacecraft industry chain, customization of rules and regulations, and other related issues. As for the development of Tarim Jupiter, immigration, etc., they had long been forgotten by the officials.
According to Zhou Xing's proposal, the construction of the "one household, one ship" system is extremely in line with the development direction of human civilization. It is easy to achieve results according to this idea. Once successfully implemented, they may become one of the most dazzling achievements in the history of the human federation. A new government brings fame and fortune.
…
The meeting lasted several hours before it came to an end.
Lured by huge profits, the federal government and private capital acted extremely quickly. Within a few days, various policy meetings finalized a strategic plan to promote the development of civilian spacecraft, as well as the "one household, one ship" development program for human civilization.
According to Zhou Xing's instructions, the Shining Star Group under Zhou Xiaozhi's management efficiently cooperated with the federal government and a number of companies in the transfer of technology in the civilian spacecraft industry.
In recent days, stimulated by the federal government's policy to promote the development of civilian spacecraft, the promising prospects for interstellar trade, the victory in the Tarim battlefield... and many other positive influences, various indices in the financial market of human civilization have been rising straight up like a rocket, and the economic development is extremely strong. .
…
Time passes day by day, and five years have passed in the blink of an eye.
Human civilization has achieved dazzling development due to the victory on the Tarim battlefield, the peaceful external environment, appropriate economic policies, interstellar trade with the Galaxy Alliance, the Shining Star Group's release of civilian spacecraft technology... and many other factors. Achievement is the period of rapid development for human beings entering the interstellar era.
Compared with the unique development opportunities of human civilization, the war between the Galactic Alliance and the Dark Zerg is in a stalemate, falling into a war of attrition that the Galactic Alliance is least willing to endure.
Under the continuous urging of the Galactic Alliance, the Federation fleet that won the Battle of the Tarim System is rushing to the Bumut System, acting as a "firefighter" to rescue the Alliance fleet that is in a bitter battle.
