Jean Of Bright City 13 - Chapter 2113
8 o’clock in the morning
The streets are full of people, and many people are clamoring that the purchase of daily necessities today has been further limited. Many people are dissatisfied, but some people have heard that there was a large-scale strike in the factory area last night.
Because the factory has not yet fully started construction, the living supplies have been further restricted, and the CBV channel has always been shady. What is going on now is an issue that most people are concerned about.
Martial law has been in place for five days, and many people are already unbearable. One hour of travel a day has become a luxury for many people. Most of them can only queue up on the streets and buy what they need from places where they can buy biological materials.
Once more than 1 hour, no matter where you are, you will be found by the nearby department and let you return home.
A landing plane passed in the sky, and it was heading towards the CBV building. Soon the landing plane landed on the roof of the CBV building. A bunch of people from the special management team carried large boxes on their backs and quickly moved from the roof. Go down the entrance.
The breakfast for the hostages has been delivered today, and it will be placed directly at the gates of the conference rooms where the hostages are now. They only need to come and fetch them.
In the studio on the 59th floor, Zhao Zhen was already awake, looking at the members of the special management team who had opened the door with a large box on his back. Although there was doubt, there was no need to worry about any problems anymore.
As soon as Le Xiao came in, he saw the food delivered, and hurriedly went over to take some out, walked to a table and sat down, and after eating, Huashen also took a portion of food and sat beside Le Xiao.
“How is his situation?”
Le Xiao looked at Zhao Zhen who was drinking porridge, Hua Shen smiled and said.
“Many days have passed since yesterday, but there should be not much time left.”
Le Xiao swallowed. Huashen looked at Le Xiao who was devouring and eating, feeling a little unbelievable. Now there is no sound in the Action Division, because this matter has reached the point where it can’t be worse.
Announcement of the truth is difficult for every senior executive in the department, because it requires courage and responsibility, and that’s how it works.
“Have you figured it out clearly?”
Huashen asked, Le Xiao wiped his mouth, he looked at the breakfast that he had eaten almost, and smiled helplessly. In the past, Huashen was researching in the medical field, and he never asked questions about rights. .
Obviously everyone knows where the problem is, but everyone will choose to compromise in the end. This compromise is a compromise with the city, because it is enough to see the sunny city running normally every day.
But those things that are hidden in the dark will always breed a lot of potential problems, and the backlog of these problems will one day be uncontrollable.
After Le Xiao finished eating quickly, he sat opposite Zhao Zhen, and the staff began to get busy. After a while, the live broadcast started again.
“Okay, Mr. Zhao Zhen, following the topic of last night, the era of mechanization.”
As Le Xiao said, Zhao Zhen nodded. He had never thought that such a rumor that had existed in the city for so long was actually true.
“So all the technological opening and construction of the city in the past were to prepare for the transition to the era of mechanization?”
Le Xiao said.
“Please tell me, Miss Le Xiao, what kind of mechanized era it is.”
Le Xiao closed his eyes, and his heart beat violently again. What he heard from Alpha was too unbelievable, and then on the way here, Alpha told Le Xiao a lot of things.
“To transform humans into biochemical machinery, only the brain is retained, and the other parts are all biochemical machinery.”
Le Xiao answered clearly, Zhao Zhen laughed loudly, and then kept shaking his head.
“Is this the truth? Is the entire city people working hard for such a ridiculous age? Then please tell me, can people still be called human beings?”
Le Xiao shook her head.
“Indeed, such an approach is too cruel. The city has been plagued by various problems for years, many of which are caused by a serious shortage of resources.”
“Then most people in the city should pay for it!”
Zhao Zhen was a little excited. Many people knew what was going on in the city. He paid for such a ridiculous reason. This was the reason why Zhao Zhen was so angry that he could transform people into robots and let humans disperse. Lost everything except thinking.
“It’s extremely ridiculous, extremely ridiculous.”
Le Xiao nodded, she thinks so too, because if people are really transformed into robots, then people will lose most of their original things. Such people can no longer be called humans.
“This is what I know about the mechanized age.”
Le Xiao said, Zhao Zhen constantly shook his head. He is extremely painful at this moment. He doesn’t know what he has survived for so many years. Although hatred is one aspect, Zhao Zhen hopes more. It’s this city to stop being cold.
And now those people actually want to make the city even colder, which is something Zhao Zhen can’t accept.
“What should I do after transforming into a robot? What does it look like?”
Le Xiao licked her lips, closed her eyes again, and the things Alpha had said to her flowed in her mind.
“AI controls the operation of the entire city. Once a person is born, he will choose the corresponding job according to the pros and cons of IQ, and at a certain age he will be transformed into a mechanical biochemical person.”
“What do you think of people? What do you think?”
Zhao Zhen clenched his fists, roared angrily, and beat the table, Le Xiao just looked at Zhao Zhen seriously.
“But there is a reason!”
Le Xiao said, Zhao Zhen stood up and looked at Le Xiao angrily.
“There is not much time left on this planet.”
“What’s the meaning?”
Zhao Zhen asked.
“This planet is slowly dying. Although I don’t know how long it will be, if we don’t do something, mankind will perish. That’s why the gods want to transform mankind so that human genes can continue and transition to mechanization. After the era, the universe began to colonize, and finally humans could only leave this planet and go to other galaxies to find a planet suitable for human habitation.”
Zhao Zhen was silent, and everyone present was silent.
At this time in the city, those who watched the live broadcast on the street and waited for the purchase of living supplies were also silent. Everyone was thinking about something, because the things that Le Xiao announced were too shocking.
“real or fake?”
A man murmured, and the woman beside him said.
“Whether it is true or false, I don’t want to let my body become a machine anyway.”
“Yes, if we decide what we want to do at birth, then what value and opportunity do we have for our efforts?”
There were riots, many people were yelling, and many members of the Department of Operations who maintained order on the street were also extremely shocked, because such things are unacceptable for everyone.
In particular, the fact that AI controls humans is something that many people cannot accept at all. Some people think of the AI network decades ago, and use AI to assist humans in all aspects of work, and even life, but the AI network is After rising for a while, it disappeared.
The reason given by Congress at that time was that the technology was immature and would cause instability in the industry in the city, so the AI network was temporarily cancelled.
Many people who had experienced the AI network at that time felt the incomparable convenience, as if there was a smart butler, who could give very accurate advice and help both in work and life.
Even many people with insufficient ability rely on AI networks to be able to work in some large companies, because AI can accurately help this person improve their ability in a short time.
After the AI network was cancelled at that time, many people also protested, and now all the truth is before everyone’s eyes.
Many people start to think, if everything can really be managed by AI, then what is the value of human beings and what is the point of working and living hard.
You only need to follow all the instructions of the AI to spend every day, and you don’t even need to think about it. Someone can’t help but discuss it with the person next to it.
“How long can this planet survive?”
Zhao Zhen asked, Le Xiao gave a hum, and then said.
“At most half a century!”
50 years!
Many people watching the live broadcast feel the crisis. The time left for mankind is only fifty years. For most people, it is a real crisis, because many people in their 40s, 50s, or even 60s and 70s must Able to wait until the day when this planet is destroyed.
“So the gods have been preparing for the era of mechanization since half a century ago, and now the city’s mechanization technology and AI management technology have been very mature.”
Zhao Zhen sat down and looked at the table blankly. Niya and Alpha under the table lit the cigarette. This is an inevitable fact.
“Is there no other way to solve it?”
“Have!”
Following Le Xiao’s answer, the people who were discussing in the room on the street for a while stopped the discussion. They didn’t know what Le Xiao’s so-called method was.
“In fact, there are other human civilizations outside of our Bright City.”
Another amazing fact was announced, everyone was completely shocked, because many people couldn’t imagine what the outside world was like, and Congress has never announced what the outside world is like.
But everyone knows that the social civilization of humans has long been destroyed, and the city of Bright is built by the remaining humans.
“Where?”
Zhao Zhen asked, Le Xiao stretched out a finger and pointed to it.
“Outside this planet, there is a country called Asgard, also known as the Skyspace Kingdom. We have established communications with them for more than half a century. Next year Asgard will send representatives. Visit Brilliant City.”
Someone immediately thought that through contact with Asgard, the humans of Bright City would leave this planet and live in space before the planet’s destruction.
“Is this the other plan you are talking about?”
Le Xiao nodded.
“Can it be achieved with current technological capabilities?”
Just when Le Xiao was about to speak, the door of the studio was opened and Noah walked in slowly.
“Sorry, I will answer these questions. Now that they have been announced, there is no way.”
Noah walked up directly as he spoke. When he appeared on the stage, the city fell silent again, because Noah, as the head of the 10 departments, naturally knew everything.
“Although the truth is cruel, since everyone wants to know, we don’t intend to hide it.”
Noah patted Le Xiao on the shoulder, she swallowed, and Noah immediately spoke after sitting down.
“It’s a pity that the current existing technology can only reach less than 1 million people in space. Even in the past half century, it can only accommodate 2 million people at most.”
Le Xiao’s eyes widened in astonishment, and Zhao Zhen looked at Noah incredulously.
“So what will happen to the remaining people?”
“If all are mechanical bodies, human brains, no matter how many people are left, they can take them. This is the current problem. The human body is too fragile to adapt to the harsh space environment, so the era of mechanization Advancement is inevitable. I think all citizens should be clear about this. Think about the people in the barrier zone. Even if they can survive, in everyone’s eyes, what are they?”
Zhao Zhen lowered his head. There is no need to discuss this issue anymore, because even no matter how to argue, this planet is about to be destroyed and mankind is about to lose its existing place of existence. It is already an established fact.
“It’s just that we still have a third plan.”
As Noah said, those who were still thinking all looked at the light and shadow screen.
“An artificial planet was created before the destruction of this planet. The city does not currently have such capabilities, but it is possible to achieve it. If this plan is started from now, it is possible to achieve it. The mobile metal planet where millions of people live, but the place we are going to is still space.”
Le Xiao stood up in shock.
“seriously?”
Noah nodded.
“According to the current situation, it is too difficult. The city has been wandering over various issues over the years, and there will always be various disputes because of these and other issues. Therefore, if we cannot solve the internal problems, there is only one way in the end. You can go, everything is for the continuation of the human race, completely entering the era of mechanization, everyone is like a gene, and the meaning of existence is only to allow mankind to continue into the future!”
As Noah spoke, he directly opened a light and shadow screen, and quickly called up a document, which was the structural layer of the planet.
“The temperature inside this planet is dropping every year. When the surface temperature drops to a certain level, severe cold will come. At present, the city has no means to deal with it. Such an environment is not suitable for human survival, because the planet The surface temperature will drop to one hundred degrees below zero!”
