Everyone: Are mechanics weak? I wake up and rectify the natural disaster

It is often said that 'history develops in an upward spiral'.

In fact, this metaphor is not appropriate enough.

To be precise, history is like sawing wood.

Sometimes forward, sometimes backward.

But overall, they are developing in depth.

Whether moving forward or backward, mistakes will be made and things will be messed up.

There is no decision-maker in the world who can truly remain wise and correct.

Just like there is no scientist in the world who can truly know everything beforehand, know everything afterward, and truly understand everything.

Compared to pursuing 'always right'.

Most smart leadership teams will set their sights lower and do things more pragmatically.

It is better to pursue 'always have backup options and remedies'.

Just be cautious when doing things, stay vigilant at all times, and 'think about defeat before thinking about victory'.

So even if something goes wrong, it doesn't matter, just find a way to remedy it.

...The overturn of 'Borneo Raiders' this time was largely due to wanting too much, to the point that it was beyond the scope of capabilities.

The problem arose because the situation was not contained.

The opinions of the Huairou faction cannot represent the opinions of all members of the Politburo.

But since they brought it up at the conference, it naturally triggered subsequent ideas.

With a labor force of more than one million, this is a number that really worries the decision-makers.

It's no different now than it was before the catastrophe.

Even before the catastrophe, the labor problem was always very serious.

After the end of the world, it goes without saying.

More than one million people, before, was at best half the population of an eighteenth-tier city.

This number, in any other country in the world, is enough to attract the authorities to take it seriously.

It is only in a populous country like China that it becomes overrun.

A mere seven digits.

At any city bureau or even county bureau, it can easily exceed seven figures.

But now, after four years of dramatic population decline, even the highest levels have to pay attention.

It’s really hard to say whether human life in the apocalypse is precious or cheap.

If it is anywhere except the actual control area of ​​​​China.

A human life is sometimes so cheap that it is worth at most a can of luncheon meat and two and a half packs of instant noodles.

One mouthful of food can make people work hard for their lives.

A portion of medicine can easily buy a life.

The lack of resources has made the wasteland, which had already lost order, become increasingly chaotic and crazy.

——Why should we care about human life? Especially other people's lives?

——In a wasteland with limited resources and almost impossible to restore production capacity, these are all our own enemies and competitors for survival!

The madness in the apocalyptic wasteland is unimaginable to modern people in a peaceful society.

All despicable means can be used, just to end the life of even a stranger who has nothing to do with him and is completely harmless to him.

When silently observing the Blue Star at the lunar outpost, one can easily see such tragedies countless times every day.

Many people are really like wild beasts facing hunters, brutally hunted by their own kind using various and unbelievable methods.

but...

It was beyond the walls, in the real wasteland.

In China, which has initially recovered to the pre-disaster weather, the opposite has happened.

Even in the newly liberated military-controlled areas, order has been re-established that made the survivors of the disaster burst into tears.

When walking on the road, don’t worry about a cold arrow suddenly flying out from the darkness;

Don't worry, you will be stabbed down with a spear for no apparent reason, dragged to be quartered and eaten.

In this chaotic wasteland, suddenly stepping into a civilized society really makes people have the urge to cry.

Even the pursuits and goals of both parties are completely different.

In the wasteland, there is only crazy killing among the survivors, and at most there is some "cooperation" that has different agendas and seems to be in harmony.

But in the Chinese territory that was regained during the Reconquest Movement, everyone was like clockwork, working hard for the future and hope.

While the other survivors were swinging their swords at each other, they were swinging their swords at the monsters.

As other survivors fight for territory and establish a bloody rule through killing and torture,

The people of China, sweating every inch of the territory they regained from the monsters, rebuilt cities and villages that carried the glory of human civilization.

...but.

Such a beautiful prospect cannot arise out of thin air.

Manpower has now become the biggest problem restricting the development of Guangfu District.

——You can collect animal and plant materials from the secret realm, dig out minerals, and grow food... But can China still grow living people out of thin air from the secret realm?

After the reconstruction project was launched, the Politburo held several enlarged meetings.

Every time it is a routine summary of new developments and new gains.

After much discussion, we were shocked to discover that the manpower gap was so large that it could not be ignored.

...However, human power is considered a 'non-renewable resource' in today's Blue Star!

This is really giving people a splitting headache.

However, apart from the headache, there is no good way to solve it.

The population dropped sharply during the cataclysm, regardless of age group.

China has two doomsday projects to clear the way, and the government has been involved in the entire process of escape and refuge from the beginning.

So unlike other countries.

In other countries, during the process of sharp population decline, the proportion of old, weak, women and children is very high.

Much higher than young adults.

Especially young and middle-aged men have the lowest overall death rate.

——Yes, this is in line with Darwin's law.

But China is different.

Under the equal arrangement of the state apparatus, there are no obvious gaps among people of all ages and types of people as in other countries.

...The mortality rate among the elderly, weak, sick and disabled is indeed slightly higher.

But there's nothing we can do about it.

The resistance is there and there is no gap or fault, which shows that the government's protection is strong.

Furthermore, high-level cadres, scientific research experts, engineers, etc. do receive more complete protection than the ordinary economy...

...This is also the proper meaning of the title.

Even ordinary people can understand it.

If we don’t protect the smartest and most capable people, how can we allocate manpower to protect those brothers-in-law who rely on welfare policies to come to the mainland to cheat?

However, no matter how careful and exquisite it is.

The entire process of population development has been cut off in the middle, which is a fait accompli that cannot be escaped.

Unless you are ruthless and learn a lesson from our great heroes.

Send children as young as eight or even six years old into mines and onto battleships.

Use those slender bones that were not fully developed to lay the foundation of the glorious empire of the Victorian era.

Otherwise, there is really no way to make up for the "increase rate of the working-age labor force" which has been lower year by year in recent years.

This has always been a headache for the Presbytery.

Even if we rely on various means, such as professional systems, automated machinery, etc., we can make up for it as much as possible.

But the gap is still so big that people can’t help crying:

——Human civilization is not a solemn empire, so how can there be so many autonomous omnics that can completely replace humans!

"...Based on this line of thinking, we must admit that we made very serious decision-making mistakes during the specific implementation of 'Operation Borneo',"

The face of the elder in the middle hall showed no obvious attitude as always.

But in terms of tone, it was obviously not very happy, it was very heavy.

“The matter has come to this, and the formal letter inviting Yuhui Civilization to intervene has been conveyed.

It is no longer possible to change the decision. Interracial diplomacy cannot be such a trivial matter.

All we can do here is find ways to cooperate. "

At first, I was heading for the perfect location in Borneo.

It is planned to use this place as the base site of the space elevator.

For the original local residents, the only idea was to 'find a way to achieve cooperation'.

But on the way, I saw so many people, so many strong laborers - due to the harsh conditions in the hinterland of Borneo, the old, weak, women and children with weak constitutions generally died and were injured in four years, and there was no fertility. and raising conditions... Therefore, most of the remaining people are young and middle-aged people.

Mainly men, but there are also a lot of young women.

Seeing so many laborers and refugees from the disaster...

It is undeniable that some of the rescue and relief operations are based on selfish motives of "co-opting and co-opting".

Of course, these are all living people, not black slaves who can be bought casually from the chief for a silver coin during the triangular trade period.

It is impossible to shout around and directly ignore their personal wishes.

But to be honest, given China's current conditions, the decision-makers also think so.

Fool them...

...or to put it nicely, 'persuade'.

Know it with emotion, move it with reason.

They were advised to go to the liberation areas in areas such as the southeast and southwest.

Go and participate in the reconstruction work of the Guangfu District.

It won't be difficult.

Therefore, relief was provided beyond the target.

It is planned to use the naturalized Chinese survivor group as an introduction and then win over most other survivor groups.

And it was for this reason that the entire situation collapsed.

——Nowadays, as "China has money, food and good land", "the cunning Chinese hide good things and are unwilling to share them with us", "they want to invade our land, but they don't even get any decent benefits." Rumors such as "Ken to Spit It Out" spread crazily throughout Central Borneo.

The attitude between the Southern Legion and the survivor groups can be described as tense.
