Chapter 318: World events

The virtual world is equivalent to creating a complete world from scratch. This world is even more magnificent than the earth. Therefore, even if the most critical "human-computer interaction" problem is solved, the birth of the virtual world still takes a long time. Zhang Wei set the world in June 2024. For this goal, the future technology company has launched a new round of recruitment, and madly digs people from major companies and world-class universities to recruit the staff of the virtual world project team. This increased to 53,000. Fortunately, the future technology companies have been expanding, or they will not be able to accommodate so many people. ◢Sui ◢dream◢small◢ 说 Щщшā
This action of the future technology company has also aroused suspicion from the outside world, because most of these newly recruited employees are elites in the computer field, and the media have speculated that perhaps the future technology company ’s virtual world project has made breakthrough progress and has entered. The final preparation stage. Major Internet companies also believe that this is the case, and have accelerated the pace of strategic adjustments to meet the upcoming Internet revolution.
Gamers all over the world are also very excited. They rub their hands and discuss the virtual world in their hearts. Online writers also see that the virtual world is a hot topic. They have used their rich imagination and launched virtual online game novels. It is said that readers are very interested in this subject at this time, making these novels have a record number of subscriptions, making this part of the online writers grinning.
It is worth mentioning that all of the current Internet writers are writing novels using Deep Blue 1, and you can use your head to think about it. As long as you have a lot of imagination and no Cavan, it is very easy to create 20,000 or 30,000 words an hour. Hundreds of thousands of novels abound, and there are 200,000 more lunatics, which make readers both happy and distressed, and readers spit out, "Nime, I can read novels as fast as you can write novels!"
In addition, a new model has also been born in online novels, that is, online writers display the fictional scenes in their minds through the dark blue 1, then edit and modify them, and record them, what readers see Each chapter of the novel is no longer in the form of words, but a stronger sense of substitution. Not only Internet writers, many directors also make movies in this way. Since the introduction of Deep Blue 1, people's entertainment methods can be said to be more and more abundant.
The popularity of the virtual world remains high, which also puts certain pressure on Zhang Wei and future technology companies. This pressure eventually turns into motivation. Everyone works overtime and wants to improve the virtual world as soon as possible. The perfect gesture is presented in front of everyone, not disappointing everyone's expectations.
Time passed quickly, and soon came to March 2023.
In these few months, Zhang Wei's life is very simple and indifferent. In addition to his busy work, he is accompanying his wife and son and watching his son grow up day by day, the happiness in his heart is beyond words.
And when Zhang Wei lived a mediocre life, a lot of things really happened around the world.
The first big thing: the low-end flying car of the future technology company went on sale on November 12, 2022, triggering a new round of sales frenzy. Low-end flying cars with a minimum price of only 400,000 yuan, the sales volume in November was as high as 32 million, which is horrible! From the media's point of view, this is actually normal, because people around the world have been waiting for low-end flying cars for 3 years, and have already prepared banknotes. If it is not that the company's inventory is not enough in the future, sales in November may exceed 50 million units.
Along with the low-end flying cars, there are also special models such as flying trucks, flying police cars, flying ambulances, etc., and their sales are extremely hot.
From this moment on, flying cars are truly popular, and the world has entered the era of flying cars, and people's lives have undergone earth-shaking changes. In the case of express delivery, 24-hour home delivery is already the minimum requirement. Like SF Express, it can already deliver to the country within 6 hours. For this reason, SF Express purchased 30,000 flying cars at one time.
In addition, Tencent and Ali invested 140 billion in Didi Taxi and bought 350,000 low-end flying cars at one time, making Didi Taxi the largest taxi company in the country and the largest taxi company in the world. People can also enjoy a quick life. Users only need to make an appointment through the Didi taxi software, and the flying car will automatically fly to the user's location, carrying the user to the destination.
Taxis are fully upgraded to flying cars, and freight companies are also undergoing a comprehensive transformation. They purchase flying vans and carry out flying freight services. They can be delivered to the door within a few hours nationwide.
The second major event: On December 29, 2022, after the South Korean 300-ton "Luo Lao 2" carrier rocket was launched, an explosion occurred more than 200 kilometers from the ground.
Speaking of this, South Korea is a snot and tears.
The country of South Korea is actually quite sad. Before the Korean War, South Korea had never been independent in the true sense. It has always survived in the cracks between many powerful countries such as China, Japan, Russia, etc. Countries, colonies and protectors are often ravaged by foreign powers. After the end of World War II, South Korea gained independence with the support of the United States and achieved great development. However, the long history of bullying and oppression has left a sense of inferiority that is hard to dissolve in the hearts of Koreans. In order to desperately eliminate this inferiority complex, the history is revamped to beautify itself. Make myths such as: "Some celebrity has Korean origin", "The universe is all made in Korea" to cover up his bullied history. It is for this reason that South Korea has been dubbed by many Chinese netizens as "the most powerful nation in the universe."
A new round of space hegemony has already begun. China, the United States, and Russia have successively established large permanent bases on the moon. Japan, India, and European countries have also completed the manned moon landing. The national flag has been inserted on the moon. Many sites.
South Korea has the heart of a big country. Naturally, it does not want to lag behind. It has also increased its investment in space technology and wants to keep up with the pace of China, the United States and other countries.
However, although South Korea ’s economy is okay, the manufacturing industry can only be described as face goods, equipment bought, technology imported, and the history of making a cottage is much longer than that of China. Light industry, electronics, medicine, chemical industry, copying It ’s done well on the basis, and it ’s remarkable, but when it comes to mega-system engineering, it ’s basically just a hustle and bustle. It ’s just a patchwork tank. The Koreans have n’t done it for more than a decade, let alone space technology. Too.
Before the launch of "Luo Lao 2", even many Koreans were not optimistic, and Chinese netizens were vomiting, "Is the rocket launched with a mouth?"
The result was really tragedy.
After launching the "Luo Lao 2" carrier rocket equipped with a lunar exploration robot, an explosion occurred more than 200 kilometers from the ground.
This explosion not only shattered the already fragile hearts of Koreans, but also caused a major disaster.
The explosion produced tens of thousands of debris, erupting into 200 to 500 kilometers of space near-Earth orbit, unbridled movement in the low-Earth orbit, some debris speed up to seven or eight kilometers per second, the slowest is faster than bullets too much. Ninety-nine satellites and space bases on Earth are in low-Earth orbit, and then ... many satellite cups were hit by debris from this explosion and then malfunctioned.
Similar things have happened many times. In 1983, the "Challenger" space shuttle collided with a piece of paint with a diameter of 0.2 mm, causing the porthole to be damaged and had to return to the earth early. In 1986, the "Ariane" rocket exploded shortly after entering orbit, forming 564 10-cm-sized wreckage and 2,300 small fragments. These dense "projectiles" later directly caused the failure of two Japanese satellites.
However, there has never been such an accident. According to the statistics, 435 satellites failed, and even the US International Space Station was killed.
Shortly after the space accident, many countries, including South Korea and the United States, turned to China and the future technology companies to rescue their satellites and scientists working in the space station. Zhang Wei did not hesitate and immediately let all the company ’s spacecraft When dispatched, many scientists and satellites were rescued. Of course, this is a fee, and it is free to save people, but each satellite is charged a quarter of the service value of the satellite. Eventually, the future revenue of technology companies will reach 13.7 billion.
A week after the accident, countries headed by China, the United States, and Russia convened an international conference. The theme of the discussion was: "Clean up space debris, and let South Korea compensate."
China, the United States, Russia and other countries have lost a lot of satellites, and even some countries with weak science and technology have been killed. It can be said that South Korea suddenly became a public enemy of the world!
In the face of angry countries, South Korea will have to pay without compensating because it has no confidence to refuse.
South Korea lost all of its money and was forced to disclose a lot of technology to these countries. Even so, it still bears a lot of foreign debts. The life is quite hard, and there is no confidence to claim to be the first power in the universe.
This incident has now triggered a chain reaction. As South Korea lost a bankruptcy, the lives of Koreans were suddenly embarrassed and a lot. After the disclosure of technology, the competitiveness of Korean companies fell a lot, and corporate income fell. South Korea People's lives are even more embarrassing. For this reason, South Koreans are very angry and bombarded the president. However, this still cannot solve South Korea's problems, and in the foreseeable future, it is difficult for South Korea to turn over.
In this case, a voice appeared in South Korea: "Merge into China."
With the help of interested people, this voice is getting higher and higher, and even appeared in mainstream newspapers. Many Koreans believe that South Korea has suffered heavy losses after this space accident and it will take at least five years to recover its vitality. The speed of development is too fast, and it is in an era of the most critical and fierce change. Five years later, even if South Korea recovers, the gap between it and the rest of the world will only increase. If the Korean nation does not want to be in forever At the bottom of the earth's civilization, there is only one way to merge into China. As long as people with a clear eye can tell, China will only get better and better, leaving other countries behind. Besides, South Korea used to have a very close relationship with China before, but now it is only a return to history when it is merged into China.
What happened in South Korea has had a major impact on the world.
Now, there are many similar voices all over the world. They are all citizens of small countries and poor countries. They hope to merge into big countries such as China, the United States, and Russia. Because the world situation has changed, several large countries headed by China are entering. In the space age, other countries simply do not have this ability. If they continue to develop in this way, those countries that are unable to enter space will be thrown farther and farther away by major powers such as China, in order to maintain a place of survival in this world, and not to the future. Too far behind, the citizens of these small countries and poor countries are appealing to be incorporated into China, the United States, Russia and other large countries. Some nationals of Thailand, Cambodia, Outer Mongolia and other countries want to be incorporated into China. The African people strongly call for the formation of the African Federation Someone in Europe is calling for the formation of the European Federation, some countries in the former Soviet Union want to form the Soviet Union again, and people in the Arab countries are calling for the formation of the Arab Federation ... Well, Treasure Island is also in heated discussions, whether to officially return!
However, these are just folk voices, and governments of various countries have not taken corresponding actions. Of course, this is just the situation on the bright side ~ EbookFREE.me ~ Many countries have already started to contact privately, but these countries only want to form a loose federation. The countries within the federation still have autonomy, and all countries have I wanted to gain more voice in the formed federation, so I didn't talk about it.
However, some experts said that under great pressure, federalism is the general trend, because only by joining together, these backward countries can form a fist and barely hope to catch up with China. In a few years, there may be six to ten federations on the earth: a federation led by China, an American federation led by the United States, a federation led by Russia, Europe divided into two federations of Eastern Europe and Western Europe, the African Federation, the Arab Federation, The Great Indian Federation, Japan ... The best option for Japan is to join China, but the relationship between the two countries is too complicated, and it is estimated to be choking.
The third big thing: the spacecraft of the future technology company arrived at Europa and Titan, the two planets where life might exist, and launched an exploration. The results of the exploration show that these two planets, like Mars, have lower life such as microorganisms, and no higher intelligent life like humans. However, the environment of these two planets is very good, suitable for immigration, especially Titan, there is a thick atmosphere to block cosmic rays, it is suitable for transformation into a planet suitable for human habitation.
When the world knew the result, it became a sensation again. Europa's diameter is 3,100 kilometers, which is only a little smaller than the moon; Titan's average radius is 2,575 kilometers, which is only a little smaller than the moon. If we can really emigrate these two planets, there will be more living space for human beings!
However ... many countries also understand that they can only think about it, because they have no ability to enjoy this feast.
At this time, under great pressure, those in power in these countries began to seriously consider the matter of merging with other countries. .
