Chapter 164 Cultural Journey (Two in One)

Of course, the current speculation is not necessarily the real truth. Maybe there is an extremely powerful "god-level civilization" that has established a unified moral system. Could this miracle be able to monitor the cosmic strings?

And maybe... cosmic strings are worthless?

But the odds of these surprises...

There was silence in the venue, and many people were shocked by this conjecture, even Zhou Chengfeng, the chairman of the council who had always been expressionless, sat there blankly.

After a long time, I took a sip of water lightly.

What a humble, tiny human being.

After half a minute, there was a slight discussion in the venue.

This fact is cruel, but also very logical. All in all, human beings really want to investigate the properties of cosmic strings, confirm their value, and then... find a way to dig a little?

Lin Qiuyue frowned, and muttered softly while sitting in her seat: "Oh, what kind of morals are they all! Even if you know that the excavation of cosmic strings will lead to the death of the universe."

Zhang Ran felt a little amused: "If we can use cosmic strings and find that it is a very high-order energy, do you think it will be obtained?"

"Of course... the universe is about to die." Lin Qiuyue realized her logical contradiction in the middle of her sentence. She lowered her head and couldn't help being a little discouraged. ..."

"There's really no advantage to having too much morality."

Zhang Ran couldn't help sighing: "Human beings are really creatures of double standards... But it's understandable, in a world where bad money drives out good money, if you want to survive, you can only turn yourself into bad money."

He raised his head and said loudly: "Then everyone, while searching for matter, use the gravitational wave telescope to search for the existence of cosmic strings!"

...

Time flies, and human beings are developing steadily in the brilliant starry sky. Even if no material is found, this kind of stable development is indeed what everyone expects and enjoys.

Counting it, it has been more than two years since the Sibadi civilization heritage was obtained.

The richness of this legacy is reflected in almost all walks of life, biology, physics, chemistry, astronomy, semiconductors, information, robotics, etc., all-round improvement for 50 or even 100 years!

Under such circumstances, new industries have sprung up like mushrooms after rain, bringing more high-tech jobs.

Naturally, high-end jobs must be differentiated to a certain degree from low-end jobs. Whether it is salary, social status, benefits, etc., there must be a degree of differentiation.

People's requirements for quality of life will also become higher.

The cultural atmosphere of Kunlun Mountain society is very particular about "contribution". Contributing to human civilization is something we are very proud of.

Those big events involving "Long Live Humanity" were written into textbooks, and elementary school students were educated from an early age.

But then again, too much is too much.

If we talk about contribution completely, that is "white prostitution", which is not in line with human nature, and it is even more difficult to last for a long time, so material encouragement is still necessary. More pay for more work is the most basic value, and the consequences of eating a big pot of rice have been proved in history.

However, on the other hand, the gap between the rich and the poor in society cannot be widened too much, otherwise all kinds of messy social phenomena will multiply.

The number of lying flat parties will increase substantially.

If the annual income of A is another person B, who can’t catch up with the work from the Stone Age to modern times, it is definitely not that people are not working hard enough, but that there are certain problems in social distribution...

If it is impossible to catch up with A in a lifetime, then the desperate B can only lie flat.

In the current state, such unstable factors are absolutely not allowed to appear!

Therefore, the new salary system is being continuously optimized.

Maintaining a balance is very important.

We must also encourage everyone to study hard and move towards a better life through personal struggle; we must also avoid excessive polarization between the rich and the poor, just like a balance, which is a technical task.

After careful discussion by experts and long-term practice, a salary differentiation of 40 times may be a better balance.

In other words, the highest income is 40 times the lowest income, which can not only encourage work enthusiasm, but also prevent the gap between the rich and the poor from being too large and causing various social problems.

The current minimum monthly salary is 1,500 yuan, and for simple tasks such as sweeping the floor, you can get 1,500 yuan a month; and the highest after-tax remuneration is 45,000 yuan after tax, and the pre-tax income is about 60,000 yuan...

Those who exceed this income will be taxed hugely!

With a monthly income of 45,000, I actually live quite well.

For a large house of 50 square meters, the real estate tax is only 5,000 yuan, with an independent bathroom and three small rooms. Other expenses are not high. For food, a family of three can get by with 1,000 yuan. There is no need to buy a house or a car. Children's education is also very cheap. There is no personal tutor in this era, and online courses are quite popular... …

After all, there really isn't that many people to engage in fancy industries.

That is to say, computers and mobile phones are a bit more expensive, and there is a lack of resources. It is normal for them to be expensive. It is understandable that the energy of creation will not be provided to the life of the people. But 10,000 to 20,000 can be won, and these digital products are not often updated.

Of course, there are only more than 1,800 people in the entire Kunlun Mountains who can reach the maximum salary of 45,000... It's still quite rare.

At the same time, folk life in Kunlun Mountains is also becoming more diverse. There are more places to spend money, and the quality of life is slowly improving.

It is impossible for high-end chips to flow into the private sector for a while, and the metaverse technology is used in scientific research and military affairs, and even the needs of industrial robots have not been met.

However, a large wave of excellent culture from the Sibadi civilization is being put on shelves in large quantities!

"Extraordinary! The first movie "Shouting in the Drizzle" from the Sibadi civilization is officially released, and the ticket price is 40 yuan!"

"20% discount on pre-booked movie tickets!"

For the Sibadi civilization, the people of Kunlun Mountain hold a great deal of affection. Without the existence of this civilization, human beings’ struggle to survive in the universe may be ten times or even a hundred times more difficult than it is now, let alone this time. Great development of science and technology.

Therefore, the folks have great enthusiasm for the cultural products of Sibadi civilization!

"This movie tells about Sibadi civilization, the resistance of the bottom people. Let us experience the cultural journey from alien civilization together!"

"The well-known Internet writer is the most popular, giving a strong recommendation and evaluation, giving this film a high score of 9.1 points, second only to the high-scoring sci-fi movie "Starting Five Subspaces"!"

The comments below are a mess: "I don't want to update the dead donkey!"

"Pu Jiezi, if you hadn't monopolized the online novel industry, where would it be your turn to take the top job?"

The Sibadi civilization actually knows how to enjoy it. As a kind of cave creatures that are used to living underground, they liked to dig holes like mice in ancient times, and their reproductive ability was extremely amazing.

Their biggest hobby is to sleep in their nests...and then lay eggs.

After their females lay eggs, they will feel relaxed like an old hen, further giving birth to happy emotions. This habit makes them like to stay at home.

"However, their mating pleasure may not be very high, which is a strange thing."

"It's not too strange. Many birds don't feel pleasure, and they settle for the fastest result. Fish don't feel pleasure either, they just lay their sperm and eggs in the water. Cats probably don't feel pleasure either, they just don't mate. It’s just that it’s bad, and the genes are making the cat feel bad, so it’s making it reproduce.”

"...This civilization is far stronger than our human civilization in terms of openness. It doesn't matter who the child's father is."

"They don't seem to have a strong marriage system, and they are more inclined to the social public raising system. They are still eggs. After the female gives birth to a fertilized egg, the whole family will raise it together."

"As for who the parents are, they don't care at all."

In a small restaurant near a movie theater, Lu Qiming and Natasha are dating.

When talking about alien civilizations, there are simply endless topics to talk about.

Since Natasha is a CCTV reporter, she naturally knows more about the inside story. Flowers bloomed on her delicate face: "Our translators are very busy, and they have been auditing for a long time. I'm afraid that Sibadi Human values ​​have driven our young people away. The cultures of the two sides are fundamentally different.”

"Their way is actually very suitable for their civilization, but it is not suitable for our civilization."

"However, it is indeed a pretty good film."

Facing the well-known beauties, Lu Qiming was still a little nervous, eating ramen noodles on his own, and occasionally expressing a few different opinions.

He actually has a lot to say, for example, why is the cultural tradition of the Sibadi civilization so different from that of human beings?

The Sibadi are egg-laying creatures. Males have no sexual pleasure, but females have pleasure in laying eggs; humans are viviparous and have pleasure. This difference leads to a completely different system of the entire civilization. What a grand topic, I can't finish talking about it for three days and three nights.

But how to speak? Do you want to discuss the issue of "different degrees of happiness, the social chain reaction brought about" with beautiful women?

By the way, let's talk about the social public support system...

Immediately afterwards, Lu Qiming's cell phone rang, and it was His Highness who sent a text message: "I'm behind you, don't even think about running away!"

"If you dare to escape, I will throw you out of Kunlun Mountain."

Turning around quickly, he glanced out of the corner of his eye, and saw that His Royal Highness was taking two girls to dinner... It seemed that he was also watching a movie.

Sakurai also blinked at him very funnyly, with an expression on his face, and then said something with his lips.

"What?" Lu Qiming was puzzled. He didn't have any fear of Sakurai, because she was His Highness's sister.

"Kiss... did you guys kiss?" The bold Sakurai smiled and grimaced there.

"Ah... What do you think about social fostering? Are you willing to take your child out of social fostering?" Lu Qiming blushed immediately and started talking nonsense.

Natasha froze for a moment, then said with a smile: "I don't want a child for the time being, it's too much trouble. If I have a child, it seems that even the trajectory of my life has changed, and I can no longer be so free."

"As for social support, it's really a distant topic."

After eating, Natasha took his wrist again and pulled Lu Qiming, who was in a daze like a zombie, into the movie theater.

The name of the movie is "Shouting in the Drizzle", and it tells the family story about the Sibadi civilization.

In the era of cold weapons, they gave birth to a splendid clan culture. Although this race has no love, it has deep family ties like an old hen.

All the fertilized eggs are hatched by special personnel in the clan.

The unity within the clan has further evolved into a powerful country.

The clan that ruled the country was called "Lai Tuo Luo", and it ruled for five hundred years.

"Lai Tuo Luo" has rapidly multiplied from a population of several hundred at the beginning to a population of two million.

From a human point of view, this cultural system looks like Ah San's religious system. Those at the bottom are hopeless, like cattle, treated like slaves by those at the top.

The 2 million "Lai Tuo Luo" has seriously affected the lives of the people at the bottom.

Where there is oppression, there will naturally be resistance. One of the small clans, "Kangerta", set off a vigorous war of resistance.

The movie ends with all the rebels annihilated.

A female creature watched her family's eggs fall to the ground one by one.

The egg whites and egg flowers all splashed out, and even fresh blood flowed from some half-hatched eggs. She cried out in pain in the drizzle: "Oh, God! God, fuck me, kill me!! "

Lu Qiming's mind was buzzing, watching the whole movie, as if something echoed in his heart.

A bit vulgar, but brutally terrifying...

The film is over, and with the strange music like a rolling stone, the list of translators and film creators, this novel and brutal cultural journey has come to an end.

Egg-born organisms, matrilineal society, and social raising are different in many ways; but the pursuit of a better life and the expectations for the next generation are the same.

Natasha sat on the seat and wiped her tears: "It is indeed the most outstanding movie of a civilization, but I don't like tragedies very much. Why can't the ending of the rebels be better?"

"Tragedy. Tragedy is a lion on the grassland, reminding the sheep who only know how to lower their heads to eat grass." Lu Qiming also felt emotional, and stroked his glasses on the bridge of his nose.

Natasha liked this sentence so much, she sat in her seat in a daze for a while, tilting her head to savor it carefully.

After a long while, she finally took up the conversation: "I've heard that this film was a hit when it was first released, a work of a young director for self-entertainment. This director has only made such films in his entire life. A hit movie."

"The Sibadi civilization in the metaverse era has too many entertainment methods. The cost of making a movie is very low. In the virtual world, they can easily create a large number of illusory scenes. Therefore, science fiction films, Comedy movies, and some action movies, are what the public likes to watch, and they all like to watch light-hearted things, which are easy to understand."

"But since the disaster, the status of this film has risen sharply, and it has been squeezed into the world's top 100 films, so it was recorded in the database. Most of their cultural heritage is not qualified enough to be recorded."

"Yes." Lu Qiming gradually realized that he was talking to his blind date girl.

"Bless them, bless the Sibadi civilization, and hope they can continue well."

...

The rhythm of this era is sometimes very fast, and everyone has to learn to adapt to the ever-changing era, and sometimes it is quite slow. Learning should be studied, work should be done, entertainment should also be entertained.

In-depth thinking is a must-have quality for Star Citizen, and it also means that entertainment products must also be in-depth entertainment, rather than simply getting a small amount of dopamine, getting short-term pleasure and then forgetting.

With the release of "Shouting in the Drizzle", it really received a lot of praise, and many people actually wrote film reviews, peeking at the traces of the development of Sibadi civilization.

There are still many people who have started to discuss whether the system of Sibadi civilization is superior to human beings...

Of course, there is currently no way to do public breeding in society. Human beings are viviparous and need to be conceived in October, but the Sibadi civilization is oviparous. This is a natural difference. This difference alone will bring about a completely different social evolution.

The estimated number of movie viewers is 8 million, which will bring in an income of 320 million yuan. After deducting the cost, it is about 2 million to 3 million yuan. Most of them are the salaries of translators and cinema staff. Most of the 320 million yuan of disposable income can be turned into state finances.

Zhang Ran, who was watching a movie in the corner, also wished the Sibadi civilization to survive in the bewildered universe.

Lin Qiuyue sat on the left side of him, her eyes were moist, and a white mist came out of her head.

Although Sister Qiuyue is a scientific thinker, her six souls make her more sentimental than normal people. If her mood swings too much, she will crash...

Zhang Ran didn't know how to comfort her, he stroked her back lightly, and then handed her the popcorn.

Sister Qiuyue grabbed the popcorn and started eating it non-stop.

On the contrary, Sakurai-san, sitting on the right seat, is happily calculating how much money he has earned from just one movie.

Born at the bottom, she has experienced a lot, and she has seen a lot of cruel things. She quickly recovered from the movie: "One movie a month can improve the quality of life of the people while effectively obtaining financial revenue. One year is Four billion in revenue!"

"Ha! Got rich, Your Highness, when will you raise my salary? I only have 5,000 a month, isn't it a bit low!"

As if she was making money herself.

"Including comics, games, etc., it may be five billion, which is a lot of money..."

"One hundred films of the Sibadi people can last for one hundred months. In the interim, mixed with our own films, it can last for 10 years. Hey, if there is another civilization legacy, how great it would be ..."

"Hey, we can make a fortune just by moving the inheritance."

...
