Joyous Jun's Own Opinion

This question woke up the five consuls. They stared at the piles of locusts, their expressions gradually became serious, and they quickly understood what Li Luo meant.

"Look, these are bugs. The gap between their technology and ours is far greater than the gap between ours and the Trisolaran civilization. Humans have tried their best to eliminate them, exhausted all kinds of poisons, sprayed them with airplanes, introduced and cultivated their natural enemies , search for and destroy their eggs, use genetic modification to sterilize them; burn them with fire, flood them with water, every family has a pest control spirit to deal with them, and there is a fly swatter like a fly swatter under every desk The weapons that kill them...

This long war has been accompanied by the entire human civilization, and the outcome is still undecided. The insects have not been exterminated, they are still proud of the world, and their number is not less than before the appearance of human beings.Trisolarans who regard humans as bugs seem to have forgotten a fact: bugs have never really been defeated.

The sun was obscured by a small black cloud, casting a moving shadow across the land.This is no ordinary cloud, it is a large swarm of locusts that have just arrived, and they soon begin to land on the nearby fields. The three of them are bathed in the rain of life, feeling the dignity of life on earth.

"Respect the insects!" Li Luo bent slightly, and then left.

Li Luo left the meeting room, and the blockade against Sophon came to an end.

Lin Yun walked towards Li Luo slowly, she looked at Li Luo.

"To be honest, I also want to know how you shield Sophon? Just because you exist, after all you..." The more Lin Yun is familiar with Li Luo, the more he knows Li Luo himself All the shackles, this shackles make Li Luo surpass ordinary people, but he can't help himself.

"Of course not. Sophon is not omnipotent." Li Luo explained. "The energy that sophons rely on is drawn from the void, and its function theory is based on low consumption. But these energies can only sustain sophons to interfere with human particle collision experiments. This time, all sophons have been drained This is a demonstration by Trisolarans, but at this time, our particle collision experiment has been successful."

"It doesn't matter if it doesn't work? Sophon's sudden unfolding shocked everyone. In fact, Sophon didn't change the power of the universe. What he changed was human beings, the retina of human beings. If Sophon is so intelligent, it can completely unfold two-dimensionally Blocking the sunlight, even wrapping the earth, directly ending life on the earth, this is the lowest risk plan for Trisolarans. After one night, the earth fell into endless night and severe cold, and everything was frozen. Didn't wake up either."

"But in fact, she couldn't do it. We found that the solar wind has a very strong impact on sophons, so we simulated the solar wind."

"It doesn't look easy," Lin Yun said.

"It is much simpler than other methods. A spacecraft that can resist the temperature of the sun's surface is flying around the sun at this time. It is a spacecraft that has reached 15.00% of the speed of light, and it has already arrived there before the sophon comes."

"You mean the Chinese sun!" Lin Yun suddenly realized something. "So you realized it a long time ago? Li Luo."

"This is the gap in information. Trisolarans know more about humans than humans do about them, and my understanding of Trisolarans' behavior is higher than their own, so I have already made plans. This is the real truth. Information warfare."

"Then it will be a new era, there will be no more [-], only the era of crisis!" Li Luo said with some emotion looking at the setting sun.

Chapter 26 Civility and Morality

If alien civilizations exist, is there a common moral code in the universe?In a small way, this is a question that science fiction fans are very interested in; in a big way, it may be related to the survival of human civilization.

Domestic science fiction writers in the 80s tended to answer in the affirmative. In science fiction at that time, aliens appeared with benevolent images, guiding the lost group of human beings with the kindness and tolerance of a heavenly father. In Lamb, Jin Tao's "Moonlight Island", aliens soothe the wounded hearts of human beings; in Tong Enzheng's "Distant Love", the love between humans and aliens is poignant and magnificent; in Zheng Wenguang's "Earth Mirror Image", the low morality of human beings , and even scare away alien civilizations whose technological level is several orders of magnitude higher but have a bodhisattva heart!

However, the saying that "at the beginning of human beings, nature is good" is very suspicious in the human world, and it is even more impossible to put it in the universe.

Does a universe with zero morality exist?Of course this is for sure.Because the universe is so vast and full of creations, they can not only produce carbon-based life like human beings, but also naturally silicon-based life, and even other complete civilizations can.

Therefore, the morality prevailing in the human world is completely inappropriate for the universe.

"Actually, the birth of a Trisolaran is a miracle." Li Luo said to the scientists present at the meeting. "Not to mention whether the Trisolaran galaxy is suitable for survival, but after two hundred destructions, there are still new intelligent life born on the ruins, which is in itself a kind of inconceivable."

"But Dr. Li Luo, is there such a possibility, that is, in the chaos of the era, only intelligent creatures were destroyed, but there were still microorganisms that survived tenaciously, and then..." the biologist from America Hope to draw the right conclusion, but in the end he couldn't convince himself.

Because everyone knows how difficult it is to evolve from an ignorant beast to an intelligent species, not to mention the purgatory environment of the Trisolaran galaxy.

"So, it's not just us, Trisolarans are also bugs."

"But what's the point of mentioning this now? Our enemy is the Trisolarans. We should better use our only remaining weapon - the brain, to fight against them." A meeting recorder said.

"Stupid." But Li Luo just mocked this UN recorder who interrupted indiscriminately.

"We and Trisolarans are intelligent beings. 400 years is enough time for them to learn to lie and deceive. Unlike humans, the ultimate goal of Trisolarans is to survive. According to the information we have received, the First Fleet created by Trisolarans It has already consumed their countless resources, because they will do everything they can to deal with human beings, but now look at us human beings, the catastrophe is imminent, and we are still indulging in childish political struggles."

Li Luo's words made the scientists at the meeting show unhappy expressions, and the face of the UN recorder turned blue and white, which was very strange.

Everyone knew what Li Luo was talking about, it was the United Nations General Assembly just held.

After the Three-Body Crisis, Escapism emerged. Its main argument is: on the premise that the cutting-edge science of mankind has been destroyed, it is meaningless to plan the defense of the earth and the solar system in four and a half centuries. In the next four centuries or more, the more realistic goal should be to build interstellar spacecraft, so that a small part of human beings can escape to outer space, so as to avoid the complete extinction of human civilization.

For the escape destination, there are three options: [-]: The new world option, that is, to search for a new world where human beings can live among the stars.This is undoubtedly the most ideal goal, but it requires extremely high sailing speed and long voyage. Judging from the technological heights that human beings can achieve in the crisis stage, it is unlikely to be realized.

The second: the choice of starship civilization, that is, the fleeing human beings use the spaceship as a permanent residence, so that human civilization can continue in the eternal voyage.

This choice faces the same difficulties as the New World choice, but it is more focused on the technology of building a small self-circulating ecosystem. This kind of fully enclosed ecosystem that runs from generation to generation is far beyond the current technological capabilities of human beings.

The third: the choice of temporary avoidance. After the Trisolaran civilization has settled in the solar system, the human beings who have fled to outer space actively communicate with the Trisolaran society, wait for and promote the relaxation of its policy on the remaining human beings in outer space, and finally return to the solar system to Smaller scales co-exist with the Trisolaran civilization.Temporary avoidance is considered the most realistic option, but there are too many variables.

Soon after the emergence of Escapism, many media outlets around the world reported that the United States and Russia, two space technology powers, had secretly started their own outer space escape plan.While both governments immediately and categorically denied that such a plan existed, the international uproar sparked a movement to publicize technology.

At the third session of the UN General Assembly, many developing countries demanded that the United States, Russia, Japan, and Europe make technology disclosures and provide all advanced technologies, including aerospace technology, to the international community free of charge, so that all countries and nations of mankind can In the face of the three-body crisis, they enjoy equal opportunities.

Advocates of the technology privatization movement also cited a precedent: at the beginning of this century, several major European pharmaceutical companies charged high technology patent fees to African countries that produced the most advanced AIDS treatment drugs, which triggered a The lawsuit that has attracted much attention, in the face of the severe situation of the rapid spread of AIDS in Africa, under the pressure of strong public opinion, several major pharmaceutical companies announced the abandonment of patent rights before the trial.

In the face of the ultimate crisis that the world is currently facing, it is the unshirkable responsibility of all human beings in advanced countries to disclose technology.The technology privatization movement has received unanimous responses from developing countries and even the support of some EU member states, but related proposals were all rejected at the meeting of the United Nations Planetary Defense Council.

Afterwards, China and Russia put forward a limited technology privatization proposal at the Fifth Special Session of the UN General Assembly, proposing technology privatization among the permanent members of the Planetary Defense Council, which was immediately rejected by the United States and the United Kingdom.

The U.S. government says any form of public ownership of technology is unrealistic and naive, even under current circumstances.The national security of the United States is still in an important position second only to the defense of the earth.

The failure of the limited technology privatization proposal has also caused divisions among the technological powers, resulting in the bankruptcy of the plan to establish the United Earth Fleet.

The impact of the setback to the tech communalization movement has been far-reaching, and it has brought home the realization that even in the face of the devastating Trisolaran crisis, human unity remains a distant dream.

The technology privatization movement was triggered by escapism. Only when the international community reaches a consensus on escapism can the gap between developed and developing countries and between developed countries be partially healed.

Chapter 27 Escapism

"We know that human beings are worried about escapism because the children of the rich can continue to survive, but in fact, this is really ridiculous." A sociologist couldn't help but sneered.

"Those big people, their children, understand politics, art, and etiquette, but in fact, these things have no effect in the universe, and their value is not even comparable to that of a brick-moving worker."
