Chapter 241 Icebreaker Journey
Regarding the cooperation between the two sides, it is necessary to consider very carefully. Li Zhendong stood up and questioned: "I don't object to the contact and negotiation between civilizations, but the most important thing is the security issue. After we provide what the other party is trying to obtain, will we raise tigers? After helping them get out of the predicament, we will deal with us in turn?"
Captain Zhao thought for a while and replied: "Even if he doesn't know what the dilemma is, I think the probability of turning against each other after the transaction is not high. In the process of helping the other party, we can control a lot of things. For example, if we can produce a product on a large scale and they can only produce in small quantities, and when the other party's people get used to this product, the right to speak in this aspect will gradually be in our hands."
"And as the exchanges expand, the result of the war is even lower... After all, war does not benefit everyone."
"Besides, what we need is time. The more time we are given, the stronger our civilization will be. There is no doubt about this..."
"Our potential and foundation should be higher than the other party imagined."
Everyone nodded undeniably. People still have this confidence.
Zhang Yuan stood up and asked again: "So, what are they capable of trading? We can't help them for no reason?"
“Or, what are we looking for?”
After some discussion, people found that there are many contents that can be communicated in this area, including academic knowledge, some common sense of the universe between interstellar civilizations, and even... possible alien technology!
The first interstellar civilization, "Inspirator Civilization", may be because it was too old and stayed for a short time, and the Glitzer civilization did not know much information.
But the second civilization is to help them step by step from the Stone Age to the Electric Power Age, so there must be closer communication.
The Glitzer civilization should know the relevant cosmic knowledge.
Yes, common sense of cosmic sociology, something that humans lack very much!
Compared with the 200,000-year history of the Beglizer civilization, it was visited twice by the more powerful interstellar civilization. The rise of mankind was only ten thousand years old, and the earthlings had no serious written records about alien civilizations visiting the earth.
No one can figure out whether the nonsense that appears on the Internet is real or just trying to attract attention.
The only well-founded record is the conversation between Zhang Yuan and Gaia civilization. But at that time, he was locked in a virtual space and chatted with the artificial intelligence Yita through the screen. The amount of information was too little.
The second point is that in addition to common sense of cosmic civilization, the second thing that can be used for exchange is mathematics that the other party is proud of, as well as other disciplines, including various arts and entertainment.
Zhang Yuan once tricked a math paper in the confrontation with super life zer-xz. This paper solved a difficult point that humans have never solved from a very novel perspective.
A paper cannot cause a qualitative change in human civilization, but it can be seen through the secrets. The thinking between different civilizations must be different, and these thinking must have great reference significance.
As for the third point, in the process of helping this civilization, humans will receive a lot of positive feedback.
The production process can accumulate a lot of experience, but it cannot be useless.
Zhang Yuan finally added: "Resources are definitely not valuable things in the universe. What is valuable is information, knowledge, and experience accumulated over a long period of time."
"Even if there is no good deal, it is good to just understand the other party's history and improve our new civilization history."
In this way, after this discussion, everyone decided to send a real high-ranking human official to negotiate specific cooperation matters as the "ice-breaking journey" of the two civilizations.
"Let me go."
This task was taken over by Zhang Yuan!
The current Ministry of Foreign Affairs lacks talents, two or three big cats, and their voice is not as good as the New Civilization Development Department with real power. Zhang Yuan can be regarded as a real power figure in the spacecraft. Captain Zhao is in the rear and develops productivity; Zhang Yuan goes out to conduct diplomacy, which is also a choice with a clear division of labor.
After the meeting, the communication staff quickly transmitted a series of information about "high-level human beings' decision to visit" using electromagnetic waves.
Soon, Earth Age received another reply from the other party.
"Dear human civilization, we welcome your visit from the top leaders of civilization. Please allow us to prepare for a period of time and build a larger ecological park, which is estimated to take one to two months. We believe that the first ice-breaking journey will focus on exchanges in art, science and culture...
"I hope your civilization can select more relevant candidates."
“This is OK.”
Captain Zhao nodded and said, "We will also need a month to make screening preparations for various personnel. Zhang Yuan, the next work will be left to you."
...
In 6 hours, news about peace negotiations quickly spread throughout the spacecraft and became the hottest topic!
For the folk group, overall, there is more joy than worry, and even a spontaneous celebration party was held in the Central Square.
Over the years, the clouds of war have been shrouded in people's hearts. In addition to producing weapons, they also produce weapons, so that people's quality of life is compressed and very low, and even the period of hibernation is not as good as...
However, facing the threat of an unknown alien civilization, even if some war-weariness arises, ordinary people dare not complain.
Just kidding, this is not a racial civil war. If it is a racial civil war, even if it is defeated, there is still a possibility of surrender. In modern society, no matter how it is, it is impossible to massacre civilians.
But alien wars are not necessarily the case... As for the subconscious of many people, if a war breaks out with alien civilizations, either you die or I die, it is difficult to surrender. If you lose, you may die!
So even if the days are hard, they can only endure it by force.
But then again, except for some natural war craziers, who would be willing to fight to death all day long?
Who doesn't want to live a better life?
Therefore, after the news of peaceful negotiations came out, even if there were various skeptics on the Internet, the subject's remarks were still "to be able to contact or contact first", and fighting directly was definitely the worst choice.
Some people even think that allowing the government to give in slightly, as long as it is not a matter of principle, it would be considered good if we can get time.
As a result, this statement triggered a wave of verbal wars. "necessary concessions" became "surrender" in some people's remarks, and I don't know what these guys are thinking.
The people from the Propaganda Department hurriedly refuted the rumors that the new civilized government could not surrender directly, which violated the principles of humanity itself, etc.
In short, the public opinion problem is not too big, and most people still believe in the government's decision-making. Everyone is a grasshopper on the same rope, prospering and losing.
Online public opinion control is not strong. As long as it is not randomly fabricated rumors to incite people's hearts, online police will not arrest people at will...
With such a small population, the government's action is still very high. As the production line begins to adjust rapidly, there is no need to store daily necessities on a large scale. On the fifth day of the peace negotiations, some government staff sold the large amount of daily necessities they had originally stored to the public at a low price.
There were long queues outside the supermarket, but there were no people who were going to jump in or rob.
The people were talking and laughing, and even if they only bought a little synthetic meat, they were in a very good mood.
