Black technology: a super empire spanning two worlds

Chapter 180 [Join with determination without any worries]

Finally, Xiao Yu looked at Chen Shuding and smiled frankly, "As for the issue of R&D funding, the modern bioengineering business department newly established by Lingjing Technology will definitely take care of it, and it will be long-term and sustainable. It will definitely not be abandoned halfway. As long as Lingjing Technology does not go bankrupt, this business department will not be closed."

"On a personal level, I also hope that I and my family and friends can live longer. It would be a lie to say that I don't care."

"In a broader sense, this is crucial for human civilization to expand its survival boundaries into deep space in the future. The current lifespan of human individuals cannot be said to be short, but it is not very long either. It is enough in the planetary civilization stage, but if it is upgraded to the stellar civilization stage, it will take more than ten years to travel from Earth to Saturn and back just within the solar system, which accounts for about one-fifth of a person's lifespan. A lifespan of less than a hundred years will seem insufficient."

Obviously, Xiao Yu would definitely not learn from the Blue Star world. Although they had sufficient core conditions to leave the mother planet and move into the universe, they chose to hide on the mother planet and not expand their survival boundaries.

Because the vested interests in the Blue Star world are worried that expanding the boundaries into the universe will inevitably lead to the rise and rise of new forces. They are worried that they will not be able to control it, and their own status will be shaken or even subverted by the new forces.

Therefore, in order to prevent the rise of new forces from shaking their dominant position, the strategy they choose is to maintain unchanged. Then there will be no such variables, and even if there are, they can be more easily strangled in their own areas of advantage.

In a sense, the Blue Planet is also caught in the dilemma of the "resource curse theory". Just like some countries or regions on Earth, it has abundant natural resources, but these resources hinder its development, causing its growth to slow down, development to stagnate, or even regress.

For example, Africa and Brazil in South America have not developed very well despite their rich natural resources.

After all, there are endless wild fruits that can be picked within reach, and nature's gifts are so abundant that there is not enough motivation to study rice improvement technology. In other words, there is not enough motivation to develop technology and productivity, so development is slow or even stagnant.

In contrast, in the big Eastern countries, due to the shortage of resources and huge population size, the problem of having enough food alone needs to be solved urgently. If it is not solved, there will be chaos. Under such tremendous pressure, they have to look for technological breakthroughs.

Even in ancient times, the Yellow River often broke its banks and flooded, forcing the ancient Chinese ancestors to seek technological breakthroughs to control floods and optimize the irrigation of farmland, which also promoted and promoted the advancement of technology and civilization.

The humans in the Blue Star world possess rich natural resources that make Xiao Yu, a human on Earth, envious. Natural gold is everywhere and has been treated as a general industrial metal, and there are also large quantities of natural room-temperature superconducting mineral veins.

Now that I have everything I need at home, I don’t want to go out anymore.

Moreover, the human social structure of the Blue Star world is so rigid, the vested interests are conservative and stubborn, and the "resource curse" is also an important factor to a certain extent, because it makes the power of conservatives particularly strong, and it becomes extremely difficult for emerging forces to rise.

If the Earth is similar to this, it may not be much better. Some countries and regions rich in natural resources are now suffering from the dilemma of "resource curse", and Brazil is undoubtedly a typical example.

But the Earth as a whole obviously does not have such favorable conditions as the Blue Planet.

Just imagine, if humans on Earth learned that there were natural room-temperature superconducting minerals on Titan or other satellites in Saturn's orbit, they would definitely go crazy and work hard on aerospace technology in order to be able to go to Titan to mine and obtain natural room-temperature superconducting minerals.

The aerospace technology of Earth civilization will definitely achieve the normalization of interplanetary travel decades ahead of schedule, the interstellar mining industry will flourish, and controlled nuclear fusion technology may have been achieved long ago.

At this moment, Chen Shuding heard Xiao Yu's frank words and admitted that he also wanted to extend his life and health bar. This made him no longer have to worry, because this reason was indeed sufficient to support his continuous investment.

After all, wealth is just a number to Xiao Yu. Even if he transfers 50% of Lingjing Technology's equity to HP Fund for free, he will still become the world's richest man in the foreseeable future through AVIC Linfei, because AVIC Linfei has mastered the technology of room-temperature superconducting materials. In this case, Chen Shuding also believes that the desire to prolong life is definitely more attractive to Xiao Yu than money and wealth.

In fact, Xiao Yu really needs to extend his "blood bar" more, because he has to move between two worlds, Earth and Blue Star, and the difference in the speed of time will cause him to stay in one world for too long. Although the speed of time is normal for Xiao Yu himself, as many years pass, he will age faster than in another world.

To put it simply, it is equivalent to Xiao Yu using up his entire life span, and the consumption rate is doubled compared to others.

The most direct and effective way to solve this problem is to increase the thickness of the blood bar. This is also the only solution at present. As long as your blood bar is thick enough, it is not a big problem if it is consumed faster than others and can be ignored.

This is also an important reason why Xiao Yu wants to accelerate the promotion of monomer organ cloning technology as soon as possible, because time is actually very tight for him.

Unless one can quickly obtain the Blue Star world's truly unique black technology, which can enable the consciousness of "re-living a new life" to be transplanted into another complete cloned body, then there will be absolutely no worries.

But this is obviously very difficult, and requires Xiao Yu to build a huge power base in the Blue Star world, because he dare not use what others give him, which cannot solve the trust problem. He must master it himself before he dares to use it, just like the organic body.

To do that, you must have your own power in the Blue Star world and have enough strength to strive for it.

And this just takes time to establish. In addition, Xiao Yu has to move around in two worlds, and the time or lifespan consumed in one direction is faster than that of people in any other world, so time seems to be insufficient.

You might die before that day comes. At this time, you can use the single-cell cloning technology to extend your health bar by about two hundred years, which can be regarded as an intermediate transition period, so that your health bar will not collapse before the day comes when you master the black technology of consciousness transplantation.

……

As time went by, Xiao Yu and Chen Shuding discussed many things in their conversation. After about two hours, the meeting ended.

Chen Shuding also said goodbye and left with satisfaction, and felt that the trip was worthwhile. Now that he had no worries, what he was most concerned about was when the project research could be advanced to the substantive stage.

This interview with Chen Shuding is also a very important matter, because he represents the more than 200 scientists or senior talents in the field who have come to join him. Xiao Yu's attitude and commitment to him are the attitude and commitment to the other more than 200 people.

In the next few days, Chen Shuding also communicated the conversation between him and Xiao Yu with several of his colleagues, and these people communicated it to others, and soon the news reached the ears of more than 200 people who planned to join Lingjing Technology.

Like Chen Shuding, they no longer have any worries and are more determined to join Lingjing Technology.
