The world enters the age of mythology.

After obtaining the permission of the military, they will join the supernatural laboratory and become a "researcher".

A new era was born inadvertently...

New disciplines are being born. For researchers, "super culture medium" and "microvariation" are brand new terms and new research directions. It is like the rising red sun. For human beings, it has The possibilities are almost endless!

The addition of more people has brought more experts, and the fierce collision of ideas has become unprecedented.

The academic reports in laboratories and universities followed one after another, and soon, even in universities, corresponding disciplines were opened to cultivate the development of the next generation.

For the people of the Vostok, the huge leap in technological development may be even more distant from them.

For ordinary people, the emotions of waking up from hibernation are complicated, a little strange, quite joyful, and looking forward to the future.

Most importantly...a new life begins!

With batches of hibernating people waking up and being discharged from the hospital, the capital of the sea of ​​clouds has become more prosperous than ever.A large number of high-rise buildings have sprung up, and new shopping malls, residential buildings, and new factories are constantly expanding.

What they see is a whole new city... where the future will live for a long time!

No, not survival, but... living!

The word "life" is really, too long ago, so long that you have to forget what it is like.

Once upon a time, going to and from get off work, the life of two points and one line meant monotony, without any poetic charm.

But at this moment, this kind of stable life has turned into a yearning.

A group of young people who had just been discharged from the hospital stepped on the hard concrete road under their feet, and looked at the bright eyes above their heads, looking a little excited.

"Hey, buddy, just woke up? Welcome to the capital of the sea of ​​clouds!" Looking up, he saw several volunteers in red vests, some of whom were old acquaintances.

"Hey, senior, did you wake up a month earlier?"

"Haha, yes, I'm here to participate in volunteer activities. Over there is the train station. You should be assigned to your own community, and there will be corresponding managers to meet you and assign rooms or something."

"Oh, thank you! Let's have dinner together when we are free some other day."

From far away, I heard an aunt shouting with a loudspeaker: "Comrades in community 3203, here, here, get on the train, get on the train soon! Come here, the train is about to leave! There are 3 more people!"

Looking at his badge, it was community No. 3203, and hurried over.

In order to guide a large number of new citizens to integrate into society more quickly, different new communities have been formed. Every 100 people has a community manager who is responsible for unified management.

In this way, it can also reduce a lot of troubles.

The train carried the crowd and departed from the suburban hospital to the capital of the sea of ​​clouds.

The golden wheat fields, the crystal-clear reservoir, the bustling downtown area, and the row upon row of skyscrapers all add up to an unreal feeling.

The panic that was brewing in these young people's hearts, but in front of this big city, the panic dissipated little by little.

Yes, these are very familiar contents. He lived in a big city 10 years ago, so what is there to be afraid of?

After arriving at the destination, everyone got off the train.

The manager of community 3203 is a 50-year-old aunt. She held a loudspeaker and said: "Welcome to the capital of the sea of ​​clouds. After that, everyone is a citizen of the sea of ​​clouds. Please fill in your occupation form to Make it easier to find a job."

"The most important thing is to get the identity card. This card is very important. It is equivalent to the combination of the ID card and the bank card. Usually, you only need to swipe the card to buy things. Everyone has a reserve fund of 2000 yuan. This is the government-issued A one-time grant for everyone."

"Through this ID card, you can also start the elevator and open the door of your room, which is equivalent to a key. Without the ID card, you can't even use the elevator."

"Please keep it safe, oh, if you lose your ID card, you can go to the Civic Center to reissue it, but it is time-consuming and labor-intensive, so try to keep it as safe as possible. You can scan it with your mobile phone to get an electronic ID card. Please download this with the QR code Software, in this way, the mobile phone can also replace the card to a certain extent..."

Auntie said a lot, but the overall meaning is still very clear.

"Currently there are many jobs, such as electronic information, engineering construction, semiconductors, electric vehicles, etc., and it is easy to find suitable jobs."

Everyone received their own identity cards, with their own portraits, ID codes, and specific residential addresses painted on them.

The identity card means an assigned room, although the area is not large, but it is also a stable nest, as long as the water and electricity bills are paid.

In a big city, there is a place to live, which is a sense of security!

"Ms. Guo, how should I apply for a larger room?" someone asked.

"It's very simple, just go to the community office to apply. But...the bigger house has to pay property tax every month, and your current small house doesn't have to pay tax. Let's talk about it after you find a high-paying job."

Newly joined citizens have all the same rights as previous Yunhai citizens, and their obligations are naturally the same.If you want a bigger house, you have to pay higher property taxes.

This made the Dongfang people very satisfied.

They don't need any privileges, just live normally.

"How about broadband?"

For some people, surfing the Internet is their life!

"Is there a broadband service? There are a total of three communication companies. You can go there and ask yourself. The services are different and the prices are also different."

"That... is the water and electricity bill free?"

"Of course it's not free. You think it's beautiful? You turn on the air conditioner 24 hours a day, and the government pays for it. Is it a dream?" The aunt was also unceremonious, and she opened her voice to preach.

In addition, since they have just arrived here and have no financial income yet, there will be six months of unemployment benefits.The amount is small, 1000 per month, but it can also provide food and clothing, and will not starve to death.

Simply dreamy!

"There's also unemployment benefits. Save 1000 yuan, it's still enough."

"At the beginning, Dongfang's savings could be converted to a certain extent, but not too much."

There used to be rich and poor households in Dongfanghao. The rich could not convert currency 1:1 and had to pay a large amount of taxes, but the poor could get most of their savings.It can be regarded as robbing the rich and helping the poor.

"Enough, enough."

In the eyes of many young people, light burst out.

Everyone even speaks the same language, so what's the difference?What the citizens of Yunhai can do, so can they!

"Ms. Guo, what about school?" A young mother asked.Both of them are high-level intellectuals, so finding a job is definitely not a problem. The biggest problem is that their children go to school.

"It's very simple. Where you go to school is random, and you can go to the lottery. Don't worry, the teachers are not that bad. You can start school after the summer vacation."

As for education, in order to welcome a large number of people to join, new schools have also been established, and a large number of excellent teachers are being recruited.

The Dongfanghao society is also a complete society, and there are quite a few excellent teachers in it, and they participated in the recruitment immediately.

The economy of the capital of the sea of ​​clouds is relatively ample. The 12-year compulsory education system from kindergarten to junior high school has already begun to be officially implemented.

In addition, the government is still trying to find ways to build new factories to absorb more jobs for the population.

These industries are naturally not low-end textiles and agriculture, but more high-end industries, such as semiconductors, communications, new energy vehicles, and so on.High value-added industries have higher wages and allow most people to live a decent life.

After listening to all the introductions, the young man hurried to his room.He took a deep breath and swiped his card excitedly.

"drop"!

The room door was opened.

The room is not big, about 16 square meters, with a separate bathroom.Apart from an air conditioner, a bed, a table, a chair, and an electric light on the ceiling, there is no other furniture.

But... it seems to be enough.

"Dong dong dong", someone outside knocked on the door.

When I opened the door, I saw a good-looking girl... It seemed that she was a former classmate?

"Hey, Xiao Qing, you live here too? What a coincidence!"

"Yeah, we are neighbors, haha, it is said that the allocation of rooms was not completely random at the beginning! Do you want to get a broadband together, and take a look around to see if there are any suitable jobs?"

"Yeah!"

This is a new era, an era full of hope and vitality!

……

Chapter 659 Five Years Later

In the blink of an eye, it has been 76 years since the 5 people joining Dongfang.

The inflow of a large number of people has brought new vitality to the economy, industry and science.

In the past five years, the capital of the sea of ​​clouds has developed at an unprecedented speed, and the birth rate in the first year has risen to 3.2%!

That is, for every 100 people, 3.2 children were born.

Due to the addition of a large number of suitable pregnant populations, the birth rate even rose to 4.2% in the second year!

It is equivalent to 100 babies born among 4.2 people, which is an exaggeration!

In the following three years, due to the increase in the population base, women of the right age have already given birth, and the birth rate gradually decreased until the end of the fifth year, when the birth rate was almost 2.2%, and gradually tended to normal.

In fact, this number is quite good, even higher than many experts expected. Obviously, the population concept of Dongfang is stronger than that of Yunhai and Hope.

Even Lu Yiming and his wife gave birth to two children, a boy and a girl, through IVF during the past five years. With the addition of their first eldest daughter, Lu Lingling, they already have three children. , can be considered to have reached the average level, at least it did not hinder the development of the entire civilization.

The birth of a large number of children has turned the capital of the sea of ​​clouds into a veritable "children's city". At first glance, at least one-fifth of the population is children under the age of 5, and one-third of the population is still a student, attending junior high school. Yes, those who are in high school or college, this ratio is simply exaggerated!

But being young also means a brighter future!

It was also in June of this summer that among the 6 high schools in the capital of the sea of ​​clouds, all the senior three students, as well as the international college entrance examination candidates in the international schools, were participating in a tense college entrance examination.

Yes, the college entrance examination is coming!

This summer full of laughter and sweat will always be the most unforgettable day in life.

The college entrance examination is not only the end of the first stage of life, but also the starting point of the next stage.

"Jingle Bell!"

"The exam is over, please stop answering the paper."

As the bell rang for the end of the last exam, all the boys and girls stopped what they were doing.

After the test papers were collected, no matter whether they got a good test or a bad test, they all cheered and walked out of the classroom!

The college entrance examination... is over.

Some students sprinkled the test papers they had worked so hard from the air one after another to vent the hardships they had suffered.

For a while, these test papers are like flying butterflies, commemorating the youth of the college entrance examination students who will eventually pass away.

"It's nice to be young, no matter what, they can enjoy a perfect summer vacation."

"Maybe there are some people who fall in love during the summer vacation." Ye Qingqing, as an invigilator, finished all the work, looked at the test papers flying in the sky, and sighed with emotion.

How many years has it been since your college entrance examination?It was really a scorching summer, my memory was a bit fuzzy, but it seemed very clear.

In a blink of an eye, she has been working for so many years.

Another female teacher also sighed with emotion: "But they don't know, this is just the beginning... Wasn't it painful for three years in high school? Not at all. Now that I think about it, it was really interesting at that time, even though I was doing test papers all day long. Still left a lot of interesting memories.”

"But now...every day is about the same, I can't leave too many memories, and each day passes quickly."

"Perhaps the happiness at this time is the purest."

"After graduating from high school, I guess there are a lot of people who fall in love." Another teacher said.

"It's not bad to be able to wait until the end of the college entrance examination to fall in love. We can't care about it anymore. Anyway, the final result is likely to be a breakup... How many puppies are there in your class?"

"Today's children, there may be three or four pairs of puppy love in a class. This proportion is not small. Haha, I thought we didn't know."

Ye Qingqing laughed, "Hey, when I was in school, it seemed to be the same. Some people fell in love secretly, but it was actually easy for the teacher to see through."

This kind of thing is actually very difficult to manage, as long as it is not too much, you can only pretend not to know; if it is too much, you can only call the parents if you mess up in the school and cause a bad atmosphere...

"I don't know how many people can be admitted to the first one? They won't be competed by the twelfth middle school next door."

"Probably not. The last mock exam was better on our side."

"How about the international school?"

International schools are naturally established for international students.

"International schools are very competitive. Although there are not many students, everyone works hard. It is estimated that some excellent teachers will be transferred to teach in international schools this time."

These teachers also seemed very relaxed, after all, leading a graduating class is not so easy.It is the first time for several teachers to lead a class completely as class teachers. They expect their students to have a good grade.

While everyone was chatting happily, the dean came out, smiled and said to these teachers: "The college entrance examination was a complete success, and there was no cheating, but please don't worry about relaxing, the third year of high school is not really over yet. The answers to the college entrance examination have already been answered." Come out, let everyone estimate the score, and then consider professional issues. Do a good job of teaching the last lesson."

In order to improve the overall quality of the population and meet an increasingly developed society, the 12-year compulsory education from kindergarten to junior high school is actually not enough. After all, it is only to popularize junior high school knowledge.

Some education professors believe that it is not impossible to add another three years of compulsory high school education, and even spread it to university education!
