Yu Yifeng got up from the bed. He wanted to go out for a walk...
As the leader of the new human civilization, he undoubtedly bears the greatest pressure.
Although there is still a long, long, long time before the energy crisis, even... it is not a problem that their generation or the next generation needs to think about at all!
"Yeah, it's not a question we should think about." Yu Yifeng shook his head and smiled bitterly.
However, before the demise of the Nyx civilization, all members thought the same way, and then... they died.
"The new human civilization must not follow such an old path!" He clenched his fist fiercely and waved it in front of his chest.
"But to conquer this 'big filter', it requires the entire civilization to think about what will happen tens of thousands of years later. This is simply outrageous..."
The more he thought about it, the more he felt the coldness of the "Great Filter"... He felt his temples throbbing and had a splitting headache, as if the boiling blood all over his body was about to burst out.
"I can't sleep at all..."
Yu Yifeng put on his clothes, covered his head with one hand, and walked out of the room.
There were two soldiers standing guard outside the door. The first time they saw Yu Yifeng, they were startled and almost didn't react.
A second later, one of them immediately raised his rifle on alert, while the other reacted quickly and quickly held him down, shouting in a low voice: "It's the captain, don't be nervous!"
In the middle of the night, now almost one o'clock in the morning, someone suddenly appeared from behind, making the two soldiers on the night shift uneasy.
Yu Yifeng did not blame them. He smiled at the two of them and said, "It's nothing. I just couldn't sleep and went for a walk. Nothing else... You can go back early to rest today. Just say it was my order."
"Go back, everyone go back."
"yes!"
The two soldiers immediately made a military salute, and at the same time they were very curious: Why are there more and more people suffering from insomnia tonight?
In the end what happened?
Watching the two soldiers walking towards the military camp, Yu Yifeng also walked around randomly in this large building.
Along the way I met several distraught scientists.
They all had their heads down, not knowing what they were thinking. Some were drinking from wine bottles, some were smoking, and the little sparks were as dim as stars.
Yu Yifeng casually greeted them and then left without saying a word.
Some things are difficult to express with words, so it is better to remain silent...
Yu Yifeng suddenly felt that he had nowhere to go. At this moment, there was no one with whom he could communicate. He felt really depressed.
Unknowingly, I reached the fourth floor...
He saw a room in front of him with the lights still on. He hesitated for a moment, then slowly walked forward and knocked on the door.
The people inside heard the knock on the door and spent a long time, seeming to look at it with peep eyes.
After seeing clearly the appearance of the person who knocked on the door, she slowly opened the door.
Yuriko was wearing a loose pajamas and a pair of pink cotton slippers on her feet, but there was no sleepiness between her eyes. It was past one in the morning, and she didn't sleep either. Maybe she was troubled by something...
When she saw Yu Yifeng, she still said with that cold expression: "What's the matter? Why are you still not sleeping so late?"
Yu Yifeng rubbed his temples and said directly: "I can't sleep, I'm under a lot of pressure, and I want to find someone to chat with. Anyway, you haven't slept yet..."
Under the dim light, it was impossible to see her expression. She thought for a while, then slightly stepped aside: "Come in."
Then he quickly added: “I don’t want to discuss any issues!”
Yu Yifeng originally wanted to say something, but after hearing these words, he held back. He knew what "do not want to discuss" specifically meant... Of course he was not here to take advantage, but to discuss the issue seriously.
He randomly found a chair and sat down, observing carefully.
This small room is only about twenty square meters, but it is extremely neat and tidy, and everything is neatly packed away. It is not as sloppy as some scientists.
This is a good advantage.
Her personal computer screen was on, and there was a profound paper on electromagnetics on it. Maybe she had just been studying this thing until late at night...
"Drink water."
She hurriedly made a cup of tea and poured it for Yu Yifeng. At this time, she seemed to think of something again, and hurriedly put on a coat. It seemed that she was only wearing pajamas just now, which was too unsightly.
This makes Yu Yifeng a little regretful...
"I don't really want to discuss it..."
She said with a slight embarrassment, and secretly looked down, wondering if she was suspected of being exposed just now.
However, Yuriko's tone has softened slightly, from "I don't want to" to "I don't really want to".
In just such a short time, Yu Yifeng felt that his psychological pressure was much lessened. He picked up the cup and took a sip of water, thinking about what he wanted to say.
After all, he is not steel. He is still essentially a carbonyl creature, and his psychological activities are not much different from those of normal humans. As long as they are human, they have limits of endurance and desire to stay together for warmth.
The Great Filter is an unprecedented and huge problem. It is a different concept to bear it alone and to bear it jointly with two people.
"Are we really not going to discuss it?" Yu Yifeng asked.
Yuriko was silent for a while and touched her silky hair.
She frowned slightly and sighed again: "Just tell me..."
After hearing this sentence, Yu Yifeng enthusiastically expressed his thoughts about the "big filter".
The problem of technological barriers is not unsolvable, but it is essentially a social problem. Social problems are too complex and are not limited to just one aspect. If we really wanted to talk about it, we could write a thick book.
These social problems are actually quite difficult to solve. How difficult is it? As difficult as getting Americans to believe in and realize communism!
And social problems are essentially problems caused by genetic defects... Genetic problems are even more difficult to solve.
So...it is extremely difficult to solve this problem.
"According to what you said, the philosophical system of species genes includes the two aspects of 'survival' and 'reproduction'?" Lily Zi also sat down, sitting face to face with Yu Yifeng, holding her chin and thinking in thought.
Yu Yifeng said seriously: "Yes, I think that most human behaviors can ultimately be classified into the two categories of 'survival' and 'reproduction', and natural selection and sexual selection also correspond to the former and the latter respectively."
"Surviving as a living thing and leaving your genes to continue the next generation actually completes the glorious mission of living things. Just like many insects and wild animals, isn't the hard life just for survival and reproduction?"
"Isn't this the meaning of life?"
"It's just that we have attached many noble labels to the meaning of life. The development of civilization has given human beings more choices and derived more things. Human beings have diversified their life goals, but in essence,
I still cannot escape from the two philosophical views of 'survival' and 'reproduction'."
"So from the perspective of the nature of genes, there is not much difference between humans and other animals. They all use 'survival' and 'reproduction' as behavioral driving forces. Every move we make is for these two points...
It’s not much different from a paramecium.”
"'Survival' and 'reproduction', are these the meaning of life?" Yuriko thought for a while, but couldn't think of a reason to refute, she was still thinking deeply.
