Super industrial overlord

Chapter 512 Population Issues
After Shi Haiming finished speaking, the conference room fell into silence again. After all, no one can be sure that the earth civilization has a [-]% chance of defeating the opponent. With some understanding, it can be determined that the civilization to which this probe belongs is in the direction of Proxima Centauri.

And it is already very sure that the civilization to which this probe belongs will definitely come to the solar system, so in the minds of these people present at this time, it appears that the civilization to which this probe belongs has begun to invade the solar system on a large scale. Yi and the scientists infer that if this civilization really invades the solar system, then human civilization also has a 50% chance of defeating the opponent and driving them out of the solar system.

But this is only in theory. If the opponent's civilization really comes to the sun, then the winning rate of human civilization will definitely be less than 50%. After all, human civilization has just left the earth, and even the solar system has not been explored yet. What's more, there are only two real spaceships in human civilization. If human civilization cannot produce enough spaceships in the next two years, then the winning rate will be even smaller.

At the same time, everyone present is very clear that once alien civilizations officially start to invade the solar system, and if human civilization is defeated in a war, at best, they will definitely be enslaved by the opponent, and at worst, they may be exterminated by the opponent. After all, this is the interstellar era. Thinking about the fate of those backward nations in the era of the earth's great voyages, you can know what kind of situation humans will face if they are defeated.

After a long time, Zhang Yi raised his head again and said to everyone: "As for the civilization that the detector belongs to, let's stop here first. After all, as long as all the countries of our human civilization work together, then, then we humans Civilization is not impossible to overcome, so let's put this matter aside first, and I will talk about another matter.

Now the level of our human civilization has reached level 0.9 according to Carl’s classification method of civilization level. As long as we continue at our current speed, it won’t take long for our human civilization to enter the level of official first-level civilization, that is, to officially step on the level of civilization. We have entered the era of interstellar civilization, so we will now discuss how to adapt our human civilization to the civilization model of the interstellar era.

You must know that there are more than 200 countries on the entire earth. This is too much for the earth. The earth is too small. I think it is time for us humans to look at the stars.

Although the most important threat we are currently facing is the invasion of foreign civilizations, the military forces of the various countries in our solar system defense plan are still very confident in defeating the opponent, even if we cannot defeat the opponent immediately and drive the opponent out of the solar system.

But even so, is the military of each country in our solar system defense plan capable of stalemate with each other for several years or decades?As long as we persist for a few years, then with the speed of technological development of our human civilization, we can definitely wipe out the other party or drive them out of the solar system.

However, no matter what happens, whether facing the invasion of foreign civilizations or the future interstellar era, the population factor will always be the most important factor. Although the total population of the entire earth now exceeds tens of billions, compared In the vast and boundless universe, what is a population of tens of billions?It’s not even a drop in the ocean, so this kind of population is still too small. For example, our human civilization will definitely transform Mars, Venus and other nearby planets in the future to make them suitable for the habitation and development of human civilization.

If our human civilization has really succeeded in transforming Mars or Venus, then we would not even think about developing such a planet without a population of billions. If that is the case, the demand for the population will be greater, not to mention other things, just the existing spacecraft of our human civilization.

An ordinary small-scale space battleship requires hundreds of people to operate it, and a medium-sized spaceship or battleship, for example, the Ziweixing No. 1 spaceship that we have produced before, among which , The required operators are at least 1000 people. As for the large spacecraft, the required operators, etc., there are more talents in all aspects, at least 1 people.

In space wars, the number of spaceships or battleships on both sides must not only be one, but hundreds, thousands, or even tens of thousands of spaceships are required. Think about it, what kind of talents are needed for such a large-scale fleet? huge.

There is also talent, which is also the foundation of the development of a civilization. In the final analysis, the interstellar era is the collision of technology and technology, and these technologies need talents to develop them. Only a large enough population can produce what we need. Enough talents can develop more advanced technology and lay a solid foundation for our entire human civilization to stand in the cosmic jungle.

Therefore, whether it is the Great China Empire, the Beautiful Country, the Arctic Country, or other countries participating in the solar system defense plan, the most important task now is to vigorously encourage births and find ways to increase the population size of the entire human population on the earth. , At the same time, the investment in scientific and technological research should also be larger. Only with a large enough population can our human civilization have a future after entering the interstellar era. "

Afterwards, all countries in the solar system defense plan agreed with Zhang Yi's statement, and at the same time they also explained their opinions and plans. The meeting initiated by him, Zhang Yi, and the Colorful Stone Group was held for three days, and three days later , The representatives of various countries immediately sent all the content discussed in the meeting back to the countries they represented, and emphatically repeated all the words Zhang Yi said.

After the meeting, Zhang Yi immediately returned to the moon in the aerospace plane. The space command always paid attention to the Mars base and the progress of the research on the alien civilization probe. At the same time, it also always paid attention to the defense plan of the entire solar system. The progress of the project, for the countries on the earth, whether they will listen to the problems he described at the meeting and make changes is within his control. After all, he is only the person in charge of the solar system defense plan, not the leaders of various countries. leadership, while the Solar System Defense Program is only an international organization.

Although it is said that compared with any previous international organization on the earth, its power has been greatly strengthened, and it even has its own huge army. However, an international organization is an international organization after all, and it cannot submit to any country give any order.
