Gali Ulan showed an expression of "I knew it was so" and sneered: "Your Majesty the Governor, is this your high talk? Do you know how many people talk about this topic in my ears every year? Farmers
Uprisings, workers' riots, robot rebellions, outer-ring independence... Your Excellency, Governor, if it were before humans entered the interstellar age, there might still be some possibility of discussing such topics, but now?"
He patted the non-existent dust on his clothes and continued: "We are already in the interstellar era, Your Excellency the Governor. No matter how much the workers and farmers riot, all they can find are blaster pistols. Even in the Outer Rim Star Region
All independently, all they can produce are some cargo ships designed hundreds of years ago... But do you know what we can have? Star Destroyers!"
The sarcasm on his face became more and more intense, "...You don't need to remind me that the central and outer star regions of the Milky Way account for two-thirds of the total population of the entire Milky Way, and four-fifths of the natural resources.
It's useless, these things are all under our control, because they will never have the real core power-industry! Even now that the Confederation of Independent Systems has split, it is still the super corporate giants like the Trade Federation that are fighting against us.
, in the final analysis, it is still just a power game between us upper class people."
As he spoke, he took off his clothes as if to vent, and stood naked to the waist. He could no longer bear the rough fabric, "So, I am very grateful to you for taking me to experience life. This is
It’s an experience I’ve never had before, and I’m very grateful to you. But now, please let’s go back to reality and continue this game that our class deserves, okay?”
Galli-Ulan sees the problem very thoroughly, and the elite education he has received for a long time means that his mind will never be shaken by such a little experience.
Tang Xiao just shook his head expressionlessly and said slowly: "The oligarchic system established by the Galactic Republic in its more than 20,000 years of history can indeed be said to be effective, giving the people the desperate right to survive, and at the same time providing themselves with
An impenetrable fortress has been built. You have foreseen who your possible enemies are from the beginning, so those opponents you anticipate will not have any chance."
Gali Ulan raised his head and said nothing, but his meaning was expressed clearly.
Tang Xiao continued: "You understand that such cruel exploitation will cause class divisions and cause resistance from the lower class people, so you have monopolized technology and industry so that things that can truly threaten you can never appear in the hands of the lower class people.
Even now in the galactic civil war, although the Confederacy of Independent Systems is under the banner of freedom and equality, in fact their war actions have nothing to do with the lower class people - the manufacturing of battleships, and even the glory of going into battle to kill the enemy have nothing to do with it.
They have nothing to do with it.”
"And it's not enough to just be desperate. They need to be given some hope. After giving up almost all their strength and life, they can get a little gift that is enough to sustain life. At the same time, there will be a series of exams,
Selection allows them to see a little bit of the possibility of changing their lives and changing their class... As long as there is such a thing, the vast majority of people will not resist."
Galli-Ulan said expressionlessly: "And we call this a social system."
Tang Xiao turned around, looked at him with some pity, and said: "You know, Mr. Gary, I am not a qualified orator. In my short life up to now, I have indeed been let down countless times.
This is an example of people changing, but not through debate, but through... choice. As I said, I give people the power to choose. The choice is yours, and I am just after your original ABC option.
, plus a D.”
He continued: "In fact, option D has always existed, but why has it disappeared from your choices? This is because you do not have the ability to see it, but I... can."
As he spoke, he walked towards the sofa. When he passed Gali Ulan, he raised his hand and pressed lightly in the air. Gali was immediately pushed to his knees by an invisible force. Then he came to the sofa and sat down.
He crossed his legs and said easily: "Weapons need to be controlled by one hand, and what I want to talk to you about is this hand."
"You don't mean to say that this is a hand within our class, do you?" Gary Ulan was half-kneeling on the ground and gritted his teeth. It was a little difficult to speak, but he was still familiar with almost every situation.
.
"In your imagination, even struggles within your class are foreseeable. But such struggles are also under certain rules. Because no matter which party is fighting, they will not break this rule.
Rules, after all, if the rules are broken, they will be the only ones injured." Tang Xiao said calmly.
"I think that's what we're talking about right now," Ulan said.
Tang Xiao sneered and shook his head, "Don't keep saying it's 'us', Gali Ulan. I don't belong to your class that is destined to be destroyed. Everything you build is meaningless and useless to me.
And the same goes for that hand."
His eyes turned cold, "What he wants to establish is a more efficient, more extreme, and more powerful system, and in this system, Gary Ulan... you have eaten too much."
Gali Ulan's face began to turn gloomy, "This is impossible!"
"Nothing is impossible, because in this new system, everything belongs to him. Will he allow you to eat things that should originally belong to him into your own stomachs?" Tang Xiao said, "
Of course, it is undeniable that you are extremely powerful, so to destroy you, you need an extremely powerful weapon..."
He pointed to his head, "Belief, and cognition..."
"The so-called faith and cognition are the cognition of every living being in the entire galaxy towards the Galactic Republic. Everything you have now is based on the premise of the existence of the Galactic Republic, and all people think about issues.
You must think from this perspective. But... do you know why this civil war broke out?" Tang Xiao asked back.
"Redistribution of interests!" Gary Ulan became a little anxious.
"No, it is the process of erasing this belief. What that hand did was the same as mine, except that it did it bigger - he gave everyone in the galaxy a new choice. Among this choice, the Galactic Republic,
It doesn't exist at all! Once this choice is put in front of you, do you know how crazy things will happen?" An inexplicable smile appeared on the corner of Tang Xiao's mouth.
"Even so, our status cannot be threatened! The class gap is unbridgeable!" Gary Ulan's defense at this moment seemed more like convincing himself.
A look of pity appeared in Tang Xiao's eyes again, "Are you sure... among what you call 'us', everyone really wants the Galactic Republic to continue to exist?"
Gali Ulan's face turned pale.
Tang Xiao sneered and said: "On our Dawn Planet, this belief and cognition is called... the people's heart."
