Chapter 626 Population Problem
After Shi Haiming finished speaking, the conference room fell into silence again. After all, no one can be sure that the earth's civilization has a 100% chance of defeating the opponent. Although it is said that based on the previous disassembly of the detector, the civilization to which the detector belongs has been
With some understanding, it can be determined that the civilization to which this detector belongs is undoubtedly in the direction of Proxima Centauri.
And it is also very certain that the civilization to which this detector belongs will definitely come to the solar system, so in the minds of these people present at this time, they all have the idea that the civilization to which this detector belongs has begun to invade the solar system on a large scale. Although according to the previous Zhang
Yihe scientists deduced that if this civilization really invaded the solar system, then human civilization would have a 50% chance of defeating the opponent and driving them out of the solar system.
But this is just a theory. If the other civilization really comes to wash in the sun, then the winning rate of human civilization will definitely be less than 50%. After all, human civilization has just stepped out of the earth, and it has not even finished exploring the solar system.
What's more, human civilization currently only has two real spaceships. If human civilization cannot produce enough spaceships within the next two years, the winning rate will be even smaller.
At the same time, everyone present is very clear that once an alien civilization officially begins to invade the solar system, and if human civilization is defeated in the war, in the best case scenario, it will definitely be enslaved by the other side, and in the worst case scenario, it will most likely be annihilated by the other side.
After all, this is the interstellar age. If you think about the fate of those backward nations in the Earth's Age of Discovery, you can know what kind of situation humanity will face once defeated.
After a long time, Zhang Yi raised his head again and said to everyone: "As for the civilization to which the detector belongs, we will stop here. After all, as long as all the countries in our human civilization work together, then, then we humans will
It is not impossible for civilization to defeat, so let’s put this matter aside for now, and let me talk about another matter.
Now the level of our human civilization has reached level 0.9 according to Karl's civilization level classification method. As long as we continue at our current speed, it won't be long before our human civilization will enter the level of a formal first-level civilization, that is, it will officially enter the level of civilization.
We have entered the era of interstellar civilization, so we now want to discuss how to adapt our human civilization to the civilization model of the interstellar era.
You must know that there are more than 200 countries on the entire earth now, which is really too many for the earth. The earth is too small. I think it is time for us humans to set our sights and look at the stars.
Although the most important threat we currently face is the invasion of foreign civilizations, the military of various countries in our solar system defense plan are still very confident that we can defeat each other, even if we cannot defeat each other immediately and drive them out of the solar system.
But even so, the militaries of various countries in our solar system defense plan are still able to maintain a stalemate with the other party for several years or decades? As long as we persist for a few years, then with the speed of technological development of our human civilization, we can definitely eliminate or drive out the other party.
solar system.
However, no matter what happens, whether it is facing the invasion of foreign civilization or the interstellar era in the future, the population factor will always be the most important factor. Although the total population of the entire earth now exceeds 10 billion, compared with
In the vastness of the entire universe, what is a population of tens of billions? It is not even a drop in the ocean, so this population is still too small. For example, our human civilization will definitely transform nearby planets such as Mars and Venus in the future.
, making it suitable for the residence and development of human civilization.
If our human civilization really succeeds in transforming Mars or Venus, then if we want to develop such a planet, it would be unthinkable without a population of several billion. This is just developing a planet. If an interstellar war really breaks out,
If so, the demand for population will be even greater, not to mention anything else, just the current spaceships of our human civilization.
An ordinary-level small space battleship requires hundreds or thousands of operators alone, while a medium-sized spaceship or battleship, for example, like the Ziweixing 1 spacecraft we have produced before, among which
, the number of operators required is at least 1,000. As for the operators of large spaceships, etc., the talents in all aspects are even greater, at least 10,000 or more.
As for the space war, the number of spaceships or battleships on both sides is definitely not just one, but hundreds, thousands or even tens of thousands of spaceships are needed. Think about the various talents required for such a large-scale fleet.
huge.
There is also talent, which is also the foundation for the development of a civilization. In the final analysis, the interstellar era is the collision of science and technology, and these technologies require talents to develop. Only a large enough population can produce what we need.
Only with enough talents can we develop more advanced technologies and lay a solid foundation for our entire human civilization to stand in the jungle of the universe.
Therefore, whether it is the Great China Empire, the Beautiful Country, the Arctic Country, or other countries participating in the solar system defense plan, the most important task now is to vigorously encourage births and find ways to increase the size of the human population on the entire earth.
, At the same time, investment in scientific and technological research should also be greater. Only with a large enough population can our human civilization have a future after entering the interstellar era."
Subsequently, all the countries involved in the solar system defense plan expressed their agreement with Zhang Yi's statement. At the same time, they also elaborated on their own opinions and plans. This meeting initiated by Zhang Yi and his Colorful Stone Group lasted for three days. Three days later,
, representatives from various countries immediately sent all the content discussed in the meeting back to the countries they represented, and emphatically repeated all the words Zhang Yi said.
After the meeting, Zhang Yi immediately returned to the moon on a space plane. The Space Command was always paying attention to the Mars base and the progress of the research on the alien civilization detector. At the same time, it was also always paying attention to the entire solar system defense plan.
As for the progress of the project, it is up to me whether the various countries on earth will listen to the problems he described at the meeting and make changes. After all, he is just the person in charge of the solar system defense plan, not the leader of each country.
leadership, and the Solar System Defense Program is only an international organization.
Although it is said that the power of any international organization on the earth has been greatly strengthened compared to the past, and it even has its own huge army. However, international organizations are international organizations after all and cannot ask any country in the world.
