Of course Wang Zhendong is loyal to the country, and the country's economic development is also very gratifying. People's lives are getting better and better, but there are still many discussions about various issues in society. The biggest problem is the discussion of the system. Some people say that Western
The system is good. For example, the United States is so powerful because it relies on the system. The same is true for the United Kingdom and Europe.
Western countries are indeed powerful, Wang Zhendong also admits this, but if China's system is not good, he will never admit it, but he can't give an example. After all, compared with Western countries, China's economy is indeed very backward.
, the lives of ordinary people are far inferior to those of the other party.
Wang Zhendong can see China's current problems, and Liu Lang is of course very clear about it, but Shao Mingtao's direct inquiry is a bit abrupt. How should Liu Lang answer? Saying that China is good is obviously lying, and saying that foreign countries are good, won't this cause trouble for yourself?
?
Liu Lang smiled, took a mouthful of vegetables, put it into his mouth and said while chewing.
"Brother Shao, what do you think are the characteristics of the Western system?"
"Well, I personally think that in their democracy, ordinary people can also participate in elections. This is the main aspect they always use to criticize us. Although I don't agree with this view, I can't refute it."
Shao Mingtao replied.
"Democracy? Haha, I think the most important thing about their system is not this."
Liu Lang shook his head.
"Not democracy? What is that?"
Shao Mingtao and Wang Zhendong were both a little surprised.
"It's the legal system. The soundness of the legal system is a condition for their strength."
Liu Lang replied.
"legal system?"
"Of course it is the legal system. In my opinion, if the legal system is sound, many things will be solved easily. As for democracy, I personally think it may not be a good thing. Of course, democracy in Western countries may not change in fifty years."
Yes, but after fifty years, I’m afraid it will be hard to say.”
"Oh, is there such a thing?"
This point of view put forward by Liu Lang is really novel. Even many experts, let alone Wang Zhendong and Shao Mingtao, may not have heard that democracy is bad.
Liu Lang is not talking nonsense, but an idea he has had in the past few years. He believes that the ultimate destiny of the entire human race will be a unified community. At that time, all countries will have only one name, that is human beings, and this era will also
With the advent of the space age, human beings will eventually leave the earth and conquer the vast starry sky.
Some people may think that Liu Lang's idea is purely science fiction and too unrealistic. It certainly seems so now. However, according to the development of science and technology in the information age, especially after the emergence of artificial intelligence, the speed of human social development will show a geometric
With the current speed of development, in this era, it may only take 50 or 60 years for mankind to enter a new era.
The era when Liu Lang was reborn was more than thirty years later, that is, in the eighteenth year. At that time, artificial intelligence had already begun to be exposed. Many scientists predicted that artificial intelligence might be around twenty years later, that is, around 2040.
It will break through a threshold. After breaking through this threshold, artificial intelligence will lose human control, the development of society will be completely "out of control", and where it will go is unknown.
Of course, the so-called loss of control does not mean that humans will have a life-and-death relationship with artificial intelligence like in the Terminator movie. In fact, no one even knows what kind of era that era was. People only know that it was an era of technological explosion.
, many technologies that humans cannot break through are gradually beginning to be realized with the help of artificial intelligence.
Take quantum computers, for example. This kind of computer with a computing speed close to infinite can complete several years of supercomputer calculations in a very short time. Under the extremely powerful calculations, human genetic analysis will be the first to achieve breakthroughs. At that time, human beings will
Life span will be greatly improved, and a hundred-year-old life will be normal.
Artificial intelligence based on quantum computers is so powerful that it is unimaginable. If they can design their own algorithms, then this era will really be a world that can be called science fiction in the eyes of modern people.
In this era, the structure of society will change, and so-called democracy is nonsense.
Well, although that era is not that far away, even Liu Lang could not imagine it. It may be too illusory to mention it now. Take the era more than thirty years later as an example, those democratic countries actually have huge problems, and the British left
Europe was an act of democracy, but after Brexit it was discovered that people’s votes were really unreliable.
There is also Greece's democracy. After the people voted, the country almost went bankrupt. In the end, it could only play rogue to the EU: If you don't pay, I will file for bankruptcy, and then all the bad debts will be handed over to you.
Some people say that the United States is a democratic country. In fact, these people have "wrongly blamed" the United States. The electoral system in the United States is the electoral system, which is a winner-take-all system. It does not mean that whoever gets the most votes will be elected. This has happened in the history of the United States.
There are more votes for losers than winners. Why Americans adopt this system is because politicians in Washington have seen the shortcomings of democracy.
In the eyes of politicians like Jefferson, real democracy in Washington is actually a manifestation of the irresponsibility of leaders. The formulation of national affairs must not be achieved by collective efforts, but by leaders with far-sightedness and firm will.
realized.
Looking at human history, there are definitely many such things. Roosevelt's decision to declare war on Japan during World War II was his own decision, and even before that, others opposed him.
What do ordinary people usually think about? It’s nothing more than life, making more money, and eating more good food. They only focus on themselves. What does other people’s behavior have to do with them?
But a real politician must consider the majority of people, and even the long-term development of the country. Although this has the same ideas as the individual people, sometimes there will be conflicts. So what will be done at this time? Is this the case?
Should the decision-making power be left to the people at the grassroots level? In that case, I'm afraid things will be messed up. Only decisive decisions can be made before breaking and then building up. This requires the decision-making of politicians.
In this era of visible development, democracy is feasible, but in the era of rapid development a few decades later, only those who stand at the highest level may be able to see clearly. The most ordinary people cannot see the development of the times at all.
direction, in that case someone must stand up and lead the development of mankind. No matter who this person is, Jedi will not be the most ordinary people.
Therefore, Liu Lang's point of view is to look at the problem from the perspective of future human development, standing at the highest level. No one in this era will understand it. Of course, Wang Zhendong and Shao Mingtao can only feel puzzled.
Of course, Liu Lang would not explain these issues to them too much. He just talked about the importance of rule of law and avoided the sensitive word democracy.
No matter which country you are in, the legal system is important, and for China, the legal system is a top priority.
In recent years, the country has made great achievements in the legal system. Especially last year, after Professors Liu Lang, Mu Xiaohu, and Xiong Huaizhi were beaten, the country launched a nationwide special operation to crack down on economic crimes.
A number of laws and regulations have been formulated specifically to target companies that often default on their debts. These laws and regulations may still not be perfect, but as long as the country pays attention to it, it is progress. Perhaps in this life, the phenomenon of "triangular debt" that was rampant in the 1990s will not occur in the previous life.
, which is of great help to the country’s economy.
