However, based on the current resources invested in the field of population reproduction, as a proportion of the total resources of the whole society, if the investment continues, plus the newborns brought by the natural birth of the population - the larger the population base, the more babies born naturally.
The quantity becomes more and more.
At the same time, the greater the total amount of resources in society, the greater the absolute value of resources invested in population reproduction at the same proportion, and the greater the number of newborns that can be produced.
These two factors will jointly lead to the fact that even if the human government only invests limited efforts in population reproduction, the total population of human civilization will still skyrocket at an exponential level.
Calculation results show that if a fixed ratio of input resources is maintained, then the total population will increase to almost one billion by the time the scheduled time to leave this galaxy comes.
But……
Human civilization has limited transportation capabilities.
Human civilization cannot build enough interstellar spacecraft, cannot carry enough antimatter energy and other resources, and cannot take away so many people.
Comprehensive calculations, taking into account various factors such as population size, technological development speed, and industrial capacity, the upper limit of the number of people that can be taken away by that time will be about 200 million.
"Two hundred million..."
Looking at this number, which was finally calculated by many scientists and scientific research institutions after comprehensively analyzing many factors and establishing many complex calculation models, Zhao Changxing fell into deep thought.
This quantity is still too small.
At this moment, in a residence in Moyun City, Villagash had some pork fried bamboo shoot strips and some other food placed in front of him, frowning.
This was originally a leisurely and comfortable evening, just the right time to get some bamboo shoots to eat slowly, and then take a nap in the smoke. His mood should have been relaxed, but now, he was worried.
He realized that at this stage of development of human civilization, we once again faced a major decision that could determine the fate of the future.
"I wonder which path our leaders will choose?"
Not only him, but almost every high-level person in the civilization who has come into contact with this issue understands what this issue actually means.
Increasing the population has undoubted benefits for civilization. There is one and only one most important constraint that limits the increase in the population of human civilization, and that is the interstellar transportation capacity of human civilization when it leaves this galaxy in the future.
So... is there a way to get the best of both worlds, so that human civilization can not only enjoy the benefits of population explosion at this stage, but also not suffer from insufficient transportation capacity when it needs to leave this galaxy in the future?
The answer is yes. And the answer is very simple.
Distinguish between persons and sub-persons.
The essence of classifying people is actually to stipulate a certain group of people, so that civilized governments can only seek benefits from this group of people without assuming obligations to them. In other words, this group of people are treated as objects and tools, and they can be used when they are useful.
Use it, throw it away when it's no longer useful.
This is the essence. The rest, such as reducing the degree of genetic modification of sub-people so that they do not have enough knowledge and wisdom, so that they do not have the ability to resist; educating sub-people so that they accept their fate and give up their consciousness of resistance
, etc., are just incidental to this essence.
Assuming that the degree of genetic modification of normal humans is 10, then the degree of genetic modification of subhumans can be completely reached to 6, or even 7 or 8 - this level of genetic modification will still bring subhumans far more benefits than primitive humans.
Their physical strength and intelligence allow them to perform many tasks that are impossible for artificial intelligence systems, but compared to normal humans, they are still no threat.
In this way, human beings can unscrupulously increase their population to one billion or more, promote technological development at a speed far exceeding normal conditions, and directly use these times when the time comes to leave this galaxy in the future.
By executing people, the problem of insufficient transportation capacity can be completely eliminated.
That is to say, we can enjoy the benefits of population increase and avoid the disadvantages of population increase.
It's almost a sure win.
The original Moyunlitar civilization, and even more civilizations, did this.
Now, faced with this unsolvable problem, will leader Zhao Changxing... do this?
Villagash thought complicatedly, finally sighed and fell asleep.
At this moment, in the leader's office of the human government, Zhao Changxing stood up from his desk and came to the window. He looked at the "virtual" sea outside the window and felt the "virtual" sea breeze blowing from the air outlet, with a calm expression.
He was also thinking about this issue.
Zhao Changxing has always firmly adhered to the concept of "putting civilization first in everything". When thinking about anything, he has always been accustomed to analyzing it from the perspective of civilization. If it is beneficial to civilization, he will resolutely do it. If it is detrimental to civilization, he will resolutely avoid it.
Now, the benefits and interests are actually placed in front of him. It seems that he should not hesitate to make the decision to "divide humans and sub-humans" in order to benefit civilization and enhance civilization in this vast universe.
survival probability.
But in the end, he just shook his head, sighed, returned to his desk, picked up the document about "limiting the civilized population to 200 million", made an "approved" instruction, and signed
The name "Zhao Changxing".
This document and this directive will determine many things, such as the degree of infrastructure development, the number of future constructions of space cities, the future resource allocation of human civilization, the future jobs and careers of countless people, etc.
etc.
The fate of the entire civilization, as well as the fate of countless individuals, was changed because of this document.
After receiving Zhao Changxing's instructions, many people felt relieved.
They believe that they do not have enough wisdom and ability to make judgments on such an important issue. They cannot think of the answer, but they can't help but think about such an important issue over and over again.
Now, since leader Zhao Changxing has made a decision, there is no need to think about it anymore, just follow the instructions.
When Villagash got this notice, there was one thing that always existed in his mind, making him think and dwell on it for an unknown amount of time, and finally he couldn't control it anymore.
He once again called his two close friends, Ilo and Wirtz, and once again prepared stir-fried pork and bamboo shoots and many other delicious foods.
Now, the two of them are already instructors of the human civilization space force, and they have considerable status and are busy with work. However, after receiving the invitation from Villagash, they rushed over as soon as possible.
The three of them chatted casually, and as the feeling of Xunxunran became stronger and stronger, Villagash considered it and finally put forward the thoughts in his heart.
The expressions of Ilo and Wirtz also began to become serious. There was a long silence, and finally Ilo spoke first.
"Villagash, your idea is right. Just do it."
With the support of his friends, Villagash nodded solemnly.
The next day, he and Hora, who had the highest position in the human civilization system and worked in the human government, submitted a report application to Zhao Changxing.
Of course, before submitting the application, the two had already communicated privately and reached an agreement.
After about five hours, the two men wearing light spacesuits were finally allowed to come to Zhao Changxing.
"Leader, you should know that Hora and I are the original Moyunli Tar people and the Deep Space people respectively. We are the two highest-ranking people in our civilization system. The opinions of the two of us are enough to represent those of our respective ethnic groups.
The opinion of the majority.”
Zhao Changxing smiled and nodded.
"We are here to make a request to you." Villagash seemed to have mustered up a lot of courage and said in a deep voice: "We hope that from now on, we will analyze the genes of the newborns of our two groups.
During the transformation, we will carry out 'humanization' transformation to make our race gradually move closer to humans."
Hora also said: "We have consulted relevant experts in advance, and the experts believe that this is completely feasible. It only takes about 7 to 10 generations of continuous genetic modification, and the descendants of our respective ethnic groups can breathe the same air as humans.
, have roughly the same appearance, eat the same food, and even reproductive isolation will disappear."
Zhao Changxing was silent for a moment and asked: "Why? The policy of the human government has always been to treat people who have obtained human status equally. You should not suffer unfair treatment."
Villagash shook his head, indicating that there was no unfair treatment: "We want to truly integrate into civilization."
Hora said: "Even the living environment is different, and you need to wear a spacesuit to get along with each other. How can it be possible to truly integrate?"
After he approved the "population limit of 200 million", Villagash and Hora then made this request. There seemed to be some connection between the two. But Zhao Changxing did not think about it in this regard.
Neither person was questioned.
Because this is always a good thing. But if you look into the root of everything, it may not necessarily be a good thing.
"Let's organize experts to conduct another demonstration. Also, on this matter, we need to seek the opinions of most of the original Moyun Litar and the original Deep Space people. If there are no problems, then I will agree to this matter on behalf of the human government."
After hearing Zhao Changxing's statement, Villagash and Hora both became happy at the same time.
This matter was finally passed without any hiccups, and genetic modification began.
Shortly afterwards, Zhao Changxing received good news.
An ultra-high-energy particle produced from nowhere in the universe happened to enter the semi-open particle collider and collided with the particles emitted by the collider itself.
This process happened to be observed from beginning to end by the long-awaited observation equipment.
