Chapter 26 Exploring Civilizations
"Technology is infinite, but human beings are limited. When technology develops to a certain extent, it will fall into stagnation."
Leng Qingqiu said.
As he said that, he took out a cigarette box from the side, took out a cigarette, and lit it on the spot.
Take a deep breath and feel comfortable all over.
Leng Qingqiu said, "Can you get one?"
"unnecessary!"
Xiang Yudao.
He doesn't smoke because he doesn't need to.
For example, in communication.
It started in 2205 AD, which was the 7G era. However, some countries still use 5G networks because they do not need 7G networks.
5G communication is enough, why spend money in vain?
Similarly, most countries on earth have entered the era of digital currency, but there are still a large proportion of countries and civilians using bank cards and banknotes... because they are not needed.
Also, magnetic levitation cars have been made on the earth, but many people still use internal combustion engine cars...not because they are not advanced, but because they do not need them.
In some countries, subways and buses have been built, and transportation is very convenient. People do not need to buy cars... because they do not need to.
"Men cannot stop smoking!" Leng Qingqiu said.
Xiang Yu was silent and did not respond.
Leng Qingqiu said: "The use of steam technology is called the first industrial revolution: the application of internal combustion engines and electricity, and is the second industrial revolution. Then, the use of computers, nuclear energy, aerospace, bioengineering, etc. is the third industrial revolution!"
"Then, in the 21st century, the fourth industrial revolution was launched, mainly involving the industrial revolution with artificial intelligence, new material technology, molecular engineering, graphene, virtual reality, quantum information technology, controlled nuclear fusion, clean energy and biotechnology as technological breakthroughs."
"Artificial intelligence has shortcomings. Simple zero and one cannot simulate human complex thinking and fall into a bottleneck. It only develops biological computers with great flaws!"
"New materials have also been developed. Humans have successfully landed on the moon, Mars, and even Pluto have also landed on it successfully. The lunar immigration base and the Mars immigration base have been established. However, the immigration cost is high and the population is too small. It is mainly scientific research!"
"Virtual technology has been directly banned because of its destruction of privacy and human morality!"
"Quantum information technology ended in vain because of the lack of market!"
"As for controlled nuclear fusion, it's just a joke!"
"The so-called Fourth Industrial Revolution did not have the previous three glories... From the 21st century to the present, it has been about a thousand years. Human science and technology are generally in stagnation... This stagnation is like the Qin Dynasty in China and the Qing Dynasty, which seems to be progressing, but this progress is extremely slow!"
"Until a hundred years ago, because of an accident, mankind started the fifth industrial revolution!"
"An accident!" Xiang Yu was slightly surprised.
Leng Qingqiu continued: "That is, a hundred years ago, an accident occurred while a scientist was doing an experiment. Because of this accident... this scientist unexpectedly created the space gate technology... it can also be called star gate technology!"
"The gate of space can communicate with another planet, shorten the distance of the universe and accelerate the exchange of civilizations. It is the greatest invention in a thousand years, no doubt about it!"
Speaking of this, Leng Qingqiu became sad.
"The degree of development of civilization depends mainly on three points: one is the amount of resources, one is the degree of civilization communication, and the other is the degree of civilization protection."
"If there was no war on the tooth, the East-West exchanges after the war might have been in the cycle of reincarnation, and perhaps it would be a feudal society in a thousand years later!"
"If Europe had not opened up new routes, absorbing the cultural essence of the East and the resources of North America, it might be that Europe would still be dark today, a thousand years later!"
"The exchange and collision between Eastern and Western civilizations led to three industrial revolutions. However, the foundation of human civilization has been exhausted after the three industrial technological revolutions started!"
"We must absorb new civilization background so that the earth's civilization can go further!"
"However, the starry sky is too vast. The closest life planet to the earth may take six light years... and the fastest spacecraft in humanity is only one percent of the speed of light... It will take at least six hundred years!"
"With the current navigation speed of the spacecraft, it may be that 100,000 years have passed on the earth, and it has only flew out a very short distance, less than a hundred light-year distance... With such a narrow radius, it is difficult and almost impossible to find a cosmic civilization!"
"However, with the space gate, which can connect to a planet, it is much more affordable than spacecraft in terms of cost, can obtain rich resources, absorb nutrients from other civilizations, and develop vigorously!"
"Every time I open the door to space, I consume huge electricity and resources. Only the top power has been opened with qualifications. It has been opened in total nine times, five times, and there are sufficient resources, but it is not suitable for human survival. The remaining four times, the planets leading to have a very suitable environment, atmosphere, plants, animals, and human survival... It is suitable for human immigration without any transformation!"
"It's a pity that there are no intelligent life on these planets, just wild planets, and no civilization is opened!"
"For the ninth time, a planet was opened. The diameter of this planet is one million kilometers, with a huge area and a suitable environment. What's more amazing is that there is a smart civilization on this planet, but its level of civilization is low. Smart life here is similar to that of human race, but it is in a primitive society and is called the underground cave civilization! Those primitive humans are also called the underground cave people."
"So an invasion war began... Many people expected that soon, this planet would become a colonized planet for humans. Humans would occupy this planet like white people occupied the Americas..."
"However, humans overestimate their abilities... This seemingly weak civilization is weak at all. After experiencing an initial failure, it began to counterattack humans... Humans are in a catastrophe... The countdown has been entered by the destruction of the earth's civilization. It may only take a hundred years, and human civilization will be completely destroyed!"
As he spoke, sadness flashed in Leng Qingqiu's eyes.
"The earth is not special in the universe, not unique, it can be replaced at any time and can be destroyed. If the earth's civilization is destroyed, it may be like a leaf falling from a tree, insignificant!"
"Wait a minute!"
Xiang Yu said in confusion: "Those underground cave people have strong bodies and strong power, but humans are not vulnerable... Humans have missiles, heavy artillery, and nuclear bombs, which are enough to destroy all powerful enemies!"
