Voyage of the Stars

Chapter 742: Hiding one's weaknesses

In the list given to humans by the dynamic image civilization, gene lock is a large category of technology. There are various categories of technology such as resistance to submission, submission, aesthetics, and resistance to meme assimilation. They are like the various specific functional slots of gene lock technology, and are sold separately by the dynamic image civilization at different prices.

Among these gene lock technologies, humans have set their sights on the anti-submission one. There is also a general explanation behind this technology. It is a gene lock technology that prevents its own race from being enslaved by other races at the genetic level.

In other words, civilizations that possess this technology, even if their individual lives are captured by other civilizations, will not be able to make their races loyal to them before cracking their gene locks.

There is no general explanation for other items, but humans also know what they mean. In short, they are all good things. Unfortunately, the price is also very expensive. For a single functional gene lock technology, 100 million tons of antimatter are required. Of course, it is just a price. In fact, the dynamic image civilization does not accept the use of antimatter for currency transactions.

They only accept the technology they like to exchange.

With one-sixth of a Dyson sphere, they are much more efficient than humans in producing antimatter, so the antimatter involved is not sold by humans, but the other way around.

This is a scam, no matter how you calculate it, they make money.

Fortunately, the pricing of scientific and technological data is not entirely decided by them, and scientists on the human side also have a say. Didn't you price the gene lock technology so high? I also priced the technology that I have but you don't have so high, and in the end everyone was staring blankly.

Anyway, you don't understand the technology you don't have, and the difficulty of achieving it is not up to me to decide? This is also the case. For example, the dynamic picture civilization took a fancy to human mechanical technology and was praised by human scientists.

It is said that with this kind of mechanical expertise data, all kinds of mechanical equipment and engineering equipment that can be mechanically deformed and portable can be manufactured at any time, which will eventually increase the efficiency of the entire civilization in docking and repairing, resource mining, spacecraft maintenance, and manufacturing by at least 60%. This is an improvement in the overall strength of a civilization, not just one aspect. It is a specialized technology that strengthens the inner strength of the entire civilization. Its value is measured in antimatter, and it is more than enough to buy a whole set of gene lock technology.

Such statements are naturally exaggerated. For example, the statement that the efficiency of all kinds of things has increased by 60% is just bragging. Humans themselves have only increased by about 30%.

However, in terms of improving the inner strength of the overall civilization, it is not just a random statement by humans, but a real existence. Two civilizations of the same level, with a civilization similar to humans in mechanical expertise, must have higher productivity than normal civilizations. In terms of war potential, higher productivity means higher combat effectiveness.

It is precisely because of this that the dynamic picture civilization has been obsessed with the mechanical proficiency shown by human spacecraft.

Speaking of mechanical expertise, it is not like a technology, but more like a deeper study of humans in machinery, and it is the achievement of the human race in the field of machinery.

However, it is obviously far from reaching the level of special technology. Therefore, if there is detailed technical information, other civilizations can still conduct research, interpretation and master it. The key is to have the research results of others.

This is the core of the technological exchange between civilizations.

It is considered as the exchange of what two civilizations have and what they don’t have. They can complement each other on the road of technological development. This form of exchange can indeed promote the development of civilization, but it is too difficult to have such an environment in the universe.

Because no one knows whether the technology they sell will become the key technology to inspire other civilizations, and then they will surpass themselves all of a sudden and destroy themselves. Maybe they were originally a civilization trapped in the fourth-level civilization for thousands of years. It was because of their own technology that inspired them, and then they became the key to their mastery of the theory of everything, becoming a fifth-level civilization, and then they took themselves in. The story of the farmer and the snake is not only in human civilization.

Who can you reason with at that time?

Only the dynamic picture civilization, which has a backstage, and that backstage is a well-intentioned civilization, can do interstellar trade in this way, otherwise it is the second Red Flame Civilization.

In fact, humans and dynamic picture civilizations, both of which are fourth-level civilizations, have similar technologies, but in the exchange between the two civilizations, they not only exchange technologies that they do not have but the other party has, but also technologies that both sides have.

Because for the same technology, the development and research levels of the two civilizations will be different. Just like the high-voltage power transmission technology in the Earth era, everyone understands the principle, but the flower-growing family is the world's number one in this field, and this is the difference in research and development.

Therefore, in the process of trading with the dynamic picture civilization, in addition to the scientific and technological information that needs to be purchased, such as gene lock technology, other technologies that you have mastered can also be communicated with the dynamic picture civilization in this process.

Some details on warp speed navigation technology, technical details of force field shields and polarization shields, research bias, development experience of tachyon technology, etc. can all be communicated.

If such communication is placed in a cultivation novel, it is a discussion of the Tao.

However, it is obvious that it is impossible to "discuss the Tao" with each other with confidence between human civilization and dynamic pictures and texts today, because both parties have not yet reached the point of complete trust in each other, so even if there is such a scientific and technological exchange meeting, everyone will be reserved.

After all, this kind of communication involves all aspects of the development of one's own civilization and technology. Telling everything is equivalent to telling the other party the strengths and weaknesses of one's own civilization. Once the other party knows the truth, it is easy to be targeted, and hiding one's shortcomings is inevitable.

However, hiding one's shortcomings also has skills. After all, it is science and technology. The other party's scientists are not vegetarians. They must be able to see the obvious mistakes. Even if they don't know it on the spot, they can still find it out after taking the scientific and technological data back for analysis and experiments.

Therefore, the truth and falsehood here also require superb means. It is more difficult to fake than to make it real, which makes each civilization more unwilling to communicate. Even in such a place where interstellar trade is done seriously, everyone deliberately hides it.

However, everyone knows this, but everyone tacitly does not say it.

Therefore, in the exchanges between human civilization, dynamic picture civilization, and orange star civilization, the transaction of scientific and technological data has undoubtedly become the longest and most laborious matter.

After the transaction of goods was completed, the three civilizations took thirty years to complete this exchange.
