Deep Space Fleet

Farewell to Li Zhendong, and greeted several friends, Zhang Yuan came to the report office and met the long-awaited teacher, Academician Ding.

"Zhang Yuan, we haven't seen each other for a thousand years. In a blink of an eye, you are already a thousand years old." Academician Ding was in a good mood and made a small joke.

"teacher……"

Zhang Yuan realized that Academician Ding was much older and looked like he was already a 70-80 year old.

It may be because there are many sober times. Fortunately, with some longevity medicines in the biological laboratory, the 70-80s are not as old as before, but are still in the prosperous period of their careers.

Academician Ding patted him on the shoulder: "This big year is mainly for the New Civilization History Conference. The time is three months later. If you have anything to say, you can raise it at that time."

"By the way, we have read your doctoral dissertation. It is not difficult to pass a defense. But it is only a PhD in the history of the new civilization, which is equivalent to a PhD in science."

Zhang Yuan smiled and said, "The doctor of science should do it ..."

Another old professor smiled and said, "I think the Psy function you proposed is still very valuable ... I have a few more questions to ask you."

Several people talked for an hour, about academic aspects, and what happened on Earth.

Since it is a big year, then it is bound to be more busy. Equipment such as nuclear power plants have to be repaired, and all aspects of the spacecraft will be comprehensively inspected, including communication devices, inventory and so on.

"You just woke up from hibernation and haven't fully recovered yet. Take a rest for a week."

"Learn about the entire spaceship and the changes in the earth's civilization ..."

Zhang Yuan nodded.

After half an hour, Zhang Yuan returned to his bedroom.

It's time to learn about the latest developments in earth civilization.

I checked my luggage and found that the phone was broken and there was no way to open it, but the tablet could still be used. He was a little skeptical, maybe he would wake up next time and not even use a tablet. At that time, I can only get a very old-fashioned black-and-white working computer.

Shaking his head, Zhang Yuan sat in front of the computer, taking a deep breath.

I remember when he was hibernating last time, with Mars as the dividing line, the internal and external political circles of the solar system were in a cold war.

The main reason is the class contradiction caused by the gap between the rich and the poor.

The Cold War is just one way to divert internal conflicts.

He sighed in his heart, "I don't know if 500 years have passed now, but there is no solution. The Cold War cannot be 500 years, right?"

Open the oldest report: "Dear colleagues of Earth Age, Golden Sun, everyone. I am Ding Quan, president of the Deep Space Foundation ..."

The familiar opening remarks give a very reassuring feeling.

Under the impact of time, the civilization of the earth has long been indifferent, and all the familiar things have gradually disappeared. The Deep Space Foundation is already the only trusted organization on the planet.

I saw in the report: "Under the clouds of war, internal contradictions are gradually slowing down, and populist sentiment is rising."

"Sorry to inform you that the Deep Space Foundation belongs to the inner circle of the solar system ... we have no way of knowing the various data of the inner circle of politics."

Including economic data, Engel coefficient, Gini index, industrial index, etc., the Deep Space Foundation can only make estimates through various external performances.

"But unfortunately, relying on the Cold War to resolve internal contradictions, new problems soon appeared ..."

The first problem is that housing prices on the planet are beginning to collapse.

The war broke out, and even local war broke out on the Martian battlefield. Under this risk appetite, house prices are unlikely to continue to rise, coupled with the fact that people only want to hide away from Venus and Mercury, which are farther away from the battlefield.

More and more people are selling houses on Earth and fleeing to the safer Mercury and Venus. Finally one day, house prices started to collapse.

The rate of collapse is so fast that even government departments have not responded to make response decisions. In just one year, many cities' rooms were directly cut.

The collapse of housing prices has turned many people with mortgages into negative assets overnight.

Now that all the assets are negative, what mortgage is to be paid back?

So this group of negative equity people broke the contract directly, and the house was gone. They patted their butts and ran away from the earth.

This time the bank was miserable. It had to accept a lot of bad assets, and it was impossible to deal with it in this harsh economic environment.

Coupled with all kinds of asset transfers and runs, banks have begun to be unable to support it.

As a result, the bank fell, the capital chain was severely broken, and other industries and industries began to fall continuously ...

A tsunami-like financial crisis swept the geopolitical circle and caused huge damage to the entire economy!

The original geopolitical circle relied on the two heavy industrial bases of Mercury and the Moon, plus the profound earth, the economic strength is much stronger than the foreign political circle, but after a financial baptism, the strength was greatly damaged, and the two sides reached the same starting line.

Zhang Yuan sighed.

Opening the next report is a bad news at the beginning.

"Dear colleagues of Earth Age, Golden Sun, everyone. I am Ma Tengfei, Chairman of the Deep Space Foundation ..."

"... Sorry to inform you that due to the economic downturn, the budget of the Deep Space Foundation has been reduced. We are temporarily unable to afford the high cost of sending the next message."

"very sorry."

"We promise that when we have enough money, we will find a way to send the next message."

"I'm so sorry."

The chairman said a lot of "sorry" in succession.

Sending huge amounts of information in units of PB on a light-year scale does require huge funds.

From this report, as time goes by, the interval at which the Deep Space Foundation sends information starts to grow longer. To this day, no one will remember the ambitious deep space plan. When the economy was in a downturn, everyone would only care about themselves.

Zhang Yuan didn't know how to describe his mind.

The Deep Space Foundation, the original behemoth, has finally gone to a real decline in the misty weather ...

In various intermittent reports, it can be known that the Cold War lasted a total of 120 years.

Destruction is always simpler than building. There is no way for various space weapons to directly destroy the planet, but it can easily destroy various ecosystems.

For example, in various space cities, a few lasers can leak the air inside, and the laser can't intercept it at all; the huge earth is just a moving target. It is too easy to destroy the ozone layer with various weapons. But can make a significant change in the ecological environment of the earth ...

In particular, all kinds of genetic weapons and biochemical weapons ~ www.readwn.com ~ cost is very small, but the destructive power is huge, it is too easy to kill people on a large scale.

In such a tightrope situation, governments of various countries have tremblingly maintained restraint, and local wars have only been fought on Mars.

Just like the original nuclear deterrence, when the nuclear bomb was mounted on the launch pad, it was the time when the deterrence was the greatest. Everyone fights for the economy, but they don't want to cause a huge rebound and exterminate themselves.

In this way, 120 years later, no one has completely wiped out one party. Under the condition of long-term consumption, the war exhaustion in all regions has become increasingly high.

Then, the opportunity for peace finally came slowly ...

"Dear colleagues of the Earth Age and Golden Sun, everyone. This summer is a year of melting glaciers, and we have ushered in real peace! Thanks to the world, perhaps our civilization can come out of the trough."

Zhang Yuan's spirit refreshed.

A great man named "Quanxi" appeared on the earth and delivered a century speech. Under various opportunities, it really really promoted peace in the entire world.
