If Hao Guangyi's speech is the kind of unconstrained and strange, then Tang Chunrong's is completely "weird"!
Even a little nervous.
After all, Hao Guangyi is a writer and a reflector. When it comes to science, he is a complete layman. There is nothing wrong with him diverging his thinking according to his own ideas.
But you, Tang Chunrong, shouldn’t!
You can also be called a well-known professor of applied physics, how could you just say this?
Does science exist?
This is unreasonable and shouldn't be done.
But that’s where the blame lies!
Although the question raised by Tang Chunrong was strange, after listening to his words, it was quite thought-provoking.
Therefore, the expressions of everyone here, including Su An, have changed, which is subtle and thought-provoking.
Qi Xinlan originally planned to speak third, but after listening to Tang Chunrong's words, he silently adjusted the order of his speech to the last.
Also delaying their speeches were Vers and Li Shanbin.
Tongsugi, who was originally in last place, was pushed to the front.
Tongshan is seventy-four years old. His body has only undergone simple strengthening and transformation to adapt to long-term work at high altitudes, so he looks much older than everyone here.
He is also the only ordinary person in this special meeting who has neither background nor popularity.
Before the Glorious Republic came to power, Tongshan belonged to the second class of ordinary citizens and could earn about 5,000 ceins a month, and there were no guaranteed benefits.
Basically, they are the kind of ordinary people who grab a lot of people on the streets of the second class. They are not even middle class.
However, Tongshan is a kind-hearted and warm-hearted person. He has never felt that such a life is unfair and unfair to him. After all, he has served as a soldier and sacrificed his life for the coalition government. He knows that peace is hard-won and cherishes what he has now. everything of.
Tongshan once had a happy family. His wife was an ordinary second-class citizen like him, with a monthly income of about 4,000 ceans. Although the combined income of the two of them was not much, they also had a car and a house. .
The car is the oldest model Corina T200, and the house is a two-person apartment of 95 square meters.
But Tongshan didn't enjoy such days for long...
On the day when the Golden Bird Cage was destroyed, Tong Shan picked up a gun and followed the army to the Wall of Sighs to guard the dome. When he returned home alive, he found that his wife and son had been killed by alien species.
Although the authorities later gave Tongshan recognition and a large amount of subsidies, Tongshan felt that his life had come to an end.
If Tong Shan didn't have a few good friends, he might have committed suicide long ago.
But it was not easy for Tongshan to overcome depression. The drugs to treat psychological trauma spent all the money subsidized by the authorities. Tongshan, who had no source of income, almost ended up with Hong Yan.
Fortunately, the reconstruction of New Alub gave him a new start.
Until now, Tongshan spends most of his daily life at an altitude of 3,000 to 5,000 meters above the earth, watching the sunrise and sunset in the maintenance room.
Coming to this meeting today is the first time Tongshan has returned to the surface in five years.
…
Among everyone here, only Su An is relatively clear about these background stories.
Tongshan's fate is actually very good... because he is one of the very few survivors who has survived many disasters. He witnessed the defeat of the empire, the destruction of the Golden Bird Cage, the coming of the Center Veil, and other horrific disasters. , these experiences are enough for him to boast about for a lifetime.
But ever since Tongshan became the dome maintenance worker of Erub, he rarely interacted with others, let alone bragging.
So when Su An reminded him that it was time to speak, Tong Shan sat there and murmured for a while.
I'm so dumb, it's probably hard to imagine myself appearing in such an occasion.
The others also had their own concerns and did not pay attention to Tongshan's silence.
Only Su An kept looking at him, waiting for the moment he spoke.
…
After about ten minutes, Tongshan finally opened his mouth.
…
I……
I am a maintenance worker. Compared with everyone here, I am actually an ordinary person living on the welfare of the Republic, so... I really don't know what to say...
…
But after listening to the speeches of this gentleman and Professor Tang Chunrong, I felt a little moved in my heart. Maybe there are some things that should be said. After all, I am already this age and it is not easy to live. If I miss this again, Occasionally, no one may be able to hear my voice in the future.
…
I know that the world has been very uneven these years, especially compared to when I was a child. It has been a non-stop nightmare.
I have never thought about why people have so much anger to vent, and wars and deaths at every turn.
All things cannot be dealt with calmly.
…
I didn't know what a golden birdcage was before.
Including when it was destroyed, watching the dome structure being closed, I thought it was a terrorist attack caused by the Empire...
Unexpectedly, it turned out that the destruction was caused because we have been enslaved by a computer for too long and those big guys defeated it.
…
honestly……
I……
In fact, I really don’t understand... Why do we have to fight for freedom despite living a good life?
Is it because the golden birdcage killed people, or is it because the big shots feel that the world should not be dominated by a machine?
I really don't understand...
At least, as far as I am concerned...
If the dome had not been closed due to the destruction of the golden birdcage, my wife and children would still be alive...but...I know that is impossible.
They are already dead. There are really too many situations like mine. I am speaking out today, hoping it will not affect everyone’s mood.
after all……
Today’s topic is “factor”, I...
I just...don't quite understand, so I asked.
…
Before coming here today, I have been thinking about what I can contribute to the world. After all, my family is gone, and my friends are basically gone. Maybe now only the mother core descending from the center is left to remember me. name.
So, when I received the invitation letter, I always thought it was a fake. It wasn’t until Professor Su sent me messages over and over again that I realized that I was still alive and I still had the opportunity to say what I wanted to say but didn’t dare to say before. Say it out loud.
but……
On the way here, I slowly calmed down.
I began to realize that if I questioned the past hysterically on this occasion today, I would get sympathy at best, and would cause more trouble to others.
Moreover, it has been so many years, and I no longer remember what my wife and son looked like.
It is meaningless to talk about those things anymore.
So, I started trying to understand "factor" and imagine what it looks like.
…
Everyone should be very busy. Unlike me, my work in the maintenance room is very relaxed every day. I only need to observe the data and leave the rest to the machine.
So I can do things that I wanted to do before but didn’t have time to do. Time is the most abundant wealth I have.
I started reading books.
For example, Mr. Yang Di’s "Theory of Scientific Shackles".
Although I don’t understand it well
, but I find it very interesting. Mr. Yang Di’s perspective on thinking about problems is always so interesting.
Just like what he wrote in the book.
"Why do pandas like to sit instead of lying down? Just like, why do humans like to be in a daze instead of thinking?"
What is the source of laziness?
What does our body do when we are in a daze?
In order to try this feeling, I put down the book, sat on the dome, and watched the scenery for a day without thinking about anything.
After one day, the only feeling I felt was that my butt was numb and my waist hurt from sitting like this all the time.
but……
Surprisingly, I felt rich for the first time.
Because the world below me is always busy, but I am the only one sitting here who can think about nothing but watch the sunrise and sunset.
…
Although I was already over seventy, I suddenly realized that I might have the talent of a poet.
But when I really wanted to write it down, it felt stiff again, so I simply treated it as my own personal customization. I didn’t intend to share it with anyone anyway.
…
These experiences in life gradually changed my mood.
So when I learned about "factor", when I saw those reports.
My first feeling was not shock...
Even if you know it has destroyed a civilization.
After all, over the years, there have been many more real and terrifying things than the destruction of distant civilizations.
Instead of lamenting how powerful the factor is, take some time to think about what to eat at night.
…
so……
In my eyes, we don't need to be so nervous because of the appearance of "factors".
Because if it is the truth that transcends everything, then our tension won't change anything...
What should happen will still happen. This does not mean that we can control it if we want.
…
My words and my understanding may be too inferior and unmotivated compared to this writer and Professor Tang, but I always feel that all of this has two sides.
Every day is day and night, and people also have good and bad factors...
Maybe what is good at the moment will become bad because of us.
…
Just like we think that the factor can destroy the world, so we decide to control it, but we don't know that maybe it is because of our eagerness to control that the bad side of the factor is released.
Until then, will our desire for control help us or destroy us?
…
I……
There is no family anymore, and it doesn't matter whether a person lives or dies.
But there are still many families in this world whose pursuits are simple and whose happiness is easily satisfied.
…
But I can't see this simplest happiness in you.
This writer should know what I mean, because I found that when he was imaginative, the factors he described were full of uncertainties.
Just like his heart at the moment, he was in a panic. If he were a painter, his paintings must be very messy right now.
As for Professor Tang...
You said that the billiard balls might fly out of the table and into outer space. Your desire for control has been suppressed, but you have been deeply contaminated by knowledge. The kind of transcendence you expected feels very scary to me...
I can't describe it specifically, but I have a hunch that the result of that kind of transcendence is... you will become a person like me.
The difference is that I watch the sunrise and sunset on the dome, and you...
I will sit in the starry sky and watch the universe go round and round.
