Just when Lao Yao and the others were finishing their breakfast and preparing to enter the game, a video conference was about to be held in the Galaxy International headquarters building.
In the empty conference room, the host has not arrived yet, but the people participating in the conference have already connected online. Dozens of virtual images are floating in the air. If someone breaks into the conference room at this time, he will
I was surprised to find that the attendees were all political figures who frequently appeared in the media of various countries! And then, those who broke in would probably be arrested immediately and sentenced to death for such a serious crime as "endangering the security of the earth"...
This is a top-secret meeting, and the participants are the current presidents, chairmen, prime ministers, prime ministers, and heads of state from major developed and developing countries around the world! It is no less than a summit discussion!
At this time, the leaders of various countries had no intention of talking and were silently waiting for the host of the meeting to appear.
Not long after, a thin and steady figure appeared in the conference room, and he was alone.
"Everyone! Although I don't know which country you are in, whether it is day or night at this time, but since it is still early in the morning here, I can only say good morning to everyone!"
This is a middle-aged man. Faced with so many heavyweights, he did not say much, and then introduced himself: "I am the current executive director of the Galaxy Consortium, and my surname is Lin!"
After bowing slightly, the middle-aged man named Lin began his work of hosting the meeting. He smiled and said to the dozens of virtual images in front of him: "I believe that everyone has received the letter from our Galaxy Consortium.
Bar?"
"We are here to attend this meeting, and we just want to confirm one thing!" A voice came from a character in the virtual image: "We just want to know whether what you said in the letter is true!"
This sentence hit the nail on the head and caused the other meeting participants to nod their heads.
Director Lin smiled: "I can say it responsibly! This matter is absolutely true!"
He ignored everyone's reactions, but opened an astronomical image through a virtual image and showed it to everyone.
That is a blue planet!
"Planet: Pioneer!" Director Lin pointed at the planet with a long pointer and said: "This is a planet discovered by the Interstellar Space Group under our Galaxy Consortium in the Andromeda constellation! It is 152 meters away from the earth.
Light years, temporarily named Pioneer! It can be said that apart from the Earth, this is the first planet suitable for human habitation in the Milky Way that we humans have ever discovered!"
These words caused an uproar among the participants. Although they knew that the Galaxy Consortium was powerful, they really did not expect that their interstellar navigation capabilities could have explored such a far distance!
You know, even the M country, which was the first to study space navigation, their current footprint is only about 80 light years away from the earth. Now the Galaxy Consortium actually said that they have reached as far as 152 light years away. This undoubtedly made the M country present at the meeting
The president of the country feels ashamed...
"Ahem!" Director Lin coughed a few times, and after attracting everyone's attention to himself, he continued: "Everyone, to be honest, even me, the executive director, is very worried about the true strength of the consortium.
I'm curious, but this is not the theme of our meeting today. The consortium entrusted me to hold this meeting because it wants to reach a consensus with all countries!"
"What consensus?" Someone asked following his words.
"Consensus to operate "Age of the Gods" in all countries around the world!" Director Lin smiled and ran out of the topic of this meeting.
"What's going on? It's just a game, does it have something to do with this matter?" Everyone looked at him in confusion.
"Of course it does matter!" Director Lin then opened a data table and explained: "Everyone! This is the online number report of the game "Age of Gods" since it was operated for twelve hours yesterday! It can be seen from the table
, during the peak period, the highest number of online users was 200 million! This is only counted among the countries where operating companies have been established, and there are only more than ten countries!"
Everyone knew that he had not finished speaking, so they all chose to listen quietly.
"You are all the leaders of your respective countries, and you should all be clear that science and technology have played the most important role in the development of our society to this point! But everyone should also understand that with the continuous development of scientific and technological power, it will bring endless consequences.
It’s just productivity, but also social conflicts! The most acute one is the employment issue!”
Director Lin opened another piece of data and explained: "This is the annual unemployment rate base table for the past forty years from 2010 to last year! This eye-catching red line reminds us all the time,
The increase in unemployment has reached a level that cannot be ignored!"
"Although the discovery of Planet Pioneers has given us an opportunity for development, what I want to tell you here is that we need time!" Director Lin said with a solemn expression: "Although the climate of this planet is very similar to that of the Earth, I
I forgot to tell you that this similarity refers to the similarity with the Earth's Ice Age! The temperature there is now below minus 20 degrees all year round! Even if we want to immigrate, we must gather the strength of all countries to transform it! And this
Transformation will take at least ten years! And what we lack most is time!"
"According to the estimates of our Galaxy Consortium, in the next ten years, the global unemployment population will reach a terrible critical point! If we are not careful, it is likely to lead to a major turmoil that will affect the world! What will follow then is
There is a global war! I think even with the power of the Galaxy Consortium and all the countries here, there is no way to continue to develop the planet in such turmoil, right?"
After hearing this, everyone present at the meeting also realized the seriousness of the matter, and they all looked solemn.
"Time! We need time!" Director Lin said excitedly: "As long as we can persist until the development of the planet is completed and the immigration work can be carried out smoothly, these problems will be greatly alleviated, and the moment when human beings go into the universe will also
It’s coming soon!”
"Bang!" Director Lin slammed his hands on the table, waking everyone up from their thoughts. He excitedly said to everyone: "Everyone! Our Galaxy Consortium needs your full support! This game "Age of Gods"
, it was built by the Galaxy Consortium for the strategy of space colonization! The reason why artificial intelligence chips are used in a game is to ensure that planet development can proceed smoothly, and the huge number of people online fully proves its success.
As long as this game can attract a large number of unemployed people to enter and channel these factors that may cause instability, we can gain ten years or even the most abundant time! We need the support of all countries, and we can only attract as many people as possible
Only with our sight can we ensure that we and other countries can develop and transform the planet secretly and smoothly! Everyone, please cooperate with the consortium to promote the operation of the game in your respective countries!"
Speaking of excitement, Director Lin actually bowed deeply to everyone in the virtual image and begged them.
It has to be said that Director Lin's attitude made the leaders of various countries feel better. After all, Director Lin represented the behemoth Galaxy Consortium. His plea was equivalent to the Galaxy Consortium's plea to various countries.
Since the Galaxy Consortium lowered its stance, and the request was for something that was beneficial to all countries, the leaders of each country finally nodded in agreement after discussing with their respective think tanks.
The meeting is almost over here. Now that all countries have reached a consensus, what is left is some unattractive things such as profit distribution, which require secret negotiations between various countries and the Galaxy Consortium.
But what is certain is that with the state machinery behind it, Galaxy International's "Age of the Gods" will become a game that is popularized by all mankind...
The meeting ended quietly, and the players who were fighting in the game were still in the dark about all this. The nature of the game had changed. Is what the players were playing still as simple as a game?
Our old demon is also fighting in the game at this time. He already likes this game. Maybe he is still a little confused about what level he will reach in this game in the future, but now
He is just constantly exploring the fun that games bring him. As for what the future will bring? How many people will consider it?

After hesitating for a long time, I decided to upload this chapter. After all, it belongs to the background of this book and I still need to explain it. Everyone can just read it.
