Chapter 291: The true meaning of life [86/100]
At the reception, the Minister of Science and Technology, who was sitting in front of the curtain, smiled and said slowly to a group of reporters: "Today, there is a great news to be announced to the general public, and it is also deeply related to my country's famous technology enterprise Huasheng Group Co., Ltd.."
While speaking, the Minister of Science and Technology looked at the young man sitting on one side with a smile. It was Li Chuan who looked calm and calm in a formal outfit.
Journalists from all media outlets on the scene kept pressing the camera shutter in their hands. The venue was very quiet, and only the sound of the shutter pressing of the camera frequently appeared.
"The core news is about the virtual world under the operation and maintenance of Huasheng Group. After more than two years of careful research and active promotion, we believe that the time is ripe to launch the "eternal life of consciousness" in the virtual world to the people and consumers."
With a thud, the audience was sensational as the Minister of Science and Technology spoke. Many foreign media and guests were unable to keep quiet at once. The Minister of Science and Technology did not continue to speak, quietly waiting for everyone to digest the explosive news.
At this moment, there was a lot of noise in the venue.
"Whenever the founder of Huasheng Group appears, there will be super hot news to explode, and as always, it has not disappointed people."
"After two years and seven months, is Huasheng Group finally going to sell 'boat tickets' that passed the Road to Immortality?"
"I don't know how much the fare is!"
"No matter how expensive it is, you have to get one. No one can refuse it. This is eternal life!"
………
After a while, the Minister of Science and Technology tapped the microphone and the noisy venue quieted again, leaving only the sound of the camera frequently pressing the shutter.
"The government has formulated a complete set of operation and management mechanisms for the virtual world to ensure that laws and rights extend to the virtual world and protect the vital interests and legitimate rights of the people living in the virtual world in the future. The virtual world is not a lawless place, the government..."
The Minister of Science and Technology expressed his knowledge on behalf of the country, and the participants on the scene also listened to the words and sentences recorded by him.
I have basically understood a general idea that basically the power resources in the real world will be extended, the government will manage its functions, and a corresponding government agency will be established in the virtual world to connect and connect with the real world.
Huasheng Technology is the operation and maintenance party, similar to the perspective of God or the role of observer, and is equivalent to the "nanny" of the fantasy and virtual world, maintaining the world to ensure smooth operation.
However, the "ship ticket" issue announced later caused an uproar in the audience. This one-way ticket to the "road to immortality" was actually expensive to RMB 980,000, and this price was limited to domestic rather than unified prices worldwide. The participants on the scene noticed a detail, especially foreign media. They found that the news released so far showed that Huasheng Group's "immortality business" is currently only being implemented in China, and has not mentioned any words to overseas regions. This is not good news.
As soon as the reporter asked questions, all the reporters at the scene raised their hands, especially the foreign media were very anxious, because the press conference focused on promoting "eternal business" in China from beginning to end, and did not talk about the issue of overseas business at all.
In fact, on this issue, China and countries around the world, to be precise, negotiated and negotiated with European and American countries on this issue for more than two years, but it has been fruitless.
Now it seems that the Chinese people no longer have the patience to continue talking to you, so they have directly implemented it.
If this is true, if the news spreads and reaches European and American countries, local people will have to fry the pot without saying that they explode on the spot.
The media on site were also excited, absolutely super hot news.
"Thanks to the spokesperson, I am Luo Hong from Beijing Youth Network reporter. It only takes less than 1 million RMB to get the ticket to the "road to immortality". It is cheap for the meaning of life. But objective reality is expensive. For the rich, 1 million is too worth mentioning compared to the value of immortality. But this price is a expensive expense even for the middle-income group. For some lower-middle-income groups, it is even an astronomical figure. Maybe you have to save money for twenty or thirty years to collect a ticket fee, and this group accounts for an absolute number."
The male reporter who asked the question continued: "Is this too unfair to the poor? We have always emphasized social fairness. In the past, we all said that there are two things that are fair, one is time, everyone is 24 hours a day, and the second is death. Everyone has to face death. Whether the poor or the rich, they cannot escape death."
"With the birth of eternal life in the virtual world, it seems that even time and death are no longer fair. Will this cause the accumulation of negative emotions in society and the intensification of contradictions? What do the spokesperson think and respond to this?"
The reporter's question has actually started to discuss after the birth of the Dream World and announced the world. This is a very serious and complex topic.
Li Chuan, who was in the seat, moved the sender in front of him and said, "I will respond to this question. In fact, Huasheng Technology and relevant departments discussed this issue many times early. We once considered whether to list it as a free business or lower the price so that everyone could easily get a ticket."
"We not only discussed this for two years, but also used supercomputers to perform calculations. The result is that once such implementation means that limited life is broken from another way, the human order will face a 79% chance of collapse, and a 90% chance of causing a slow progress in human civilization, or even long-term stagnation."
"We finally decided to give up the free voluntary service of the path to immortality. We set a relatively high price not deliberately for vested interests, but from the perspective of the entire human civilization. Whether the outside world believes or not, the purpose of our doing this is to actively raise the threshold so that humans can still maintain awe and cherish life."
"If death is no longer afraid, it is too terrible. No longer afraid will mean losing the cherishment of life, and its potential threat may bring disorder, chaos, stagnation in development, and the process of civilization is seriously hindered."
"We are not doing this to close the road of eternal life to the public, but to raise the threshold to drive everyone to strive for it, understand and cherish life hard-won. Thousands of people are working hard for it, which will inevitably promote the healthy and orderly development of the entire society and civilization, so as not to fall into the terrible crisis of slow or even stagnant civilization process."
"This is not a matter of personal interests, nor is it limited to a single group, but the overall situation, and the issue of the entire human civilization. We must do this from such a height."
"If you take a step back, even if you spend fifty years of hard work to get a ticket to the road to eternal life, it is not difficult to calculate whether this deal is a loss or a profit. Some philosophers say whether the purpose of life is to prove existence or burning? I don't think there is any need to worry about this question. We now have two worlds, burning your life in the real world to illuminate the progress of human civilization, proving your existence in the eternal virtual world, proving your existence, proving that you once burned your own life, and now you are listening to your future generations telling you that this civilization is moving forward and growing, proving that you once burned your life, and this is the true meaning of life."
