I am a great scientist

Chapter 403 Prelude to Change ([-])
The laboratory suddenly fell into silence. They each thought about their own affairs, thinking about the application of controllable nuclear fusion technology, the future direction of world politics, and how to create a suitable time.

"Chief, Mr. Xu, I have a heartfelt request, and I hope to gain your support." Zhou Xing suddenly broke the silence, looked at the three leaders, and asked for instructions.

In order to make up for Zhou Xing's apology that his invention of controllable nuclear fusion would be 'frozen', the chief nodded happily: "Oh? Just say what you want, the country will try its best to meet your requirements."

"The success of controllable nuclear fusion means that the shackles of human beings moving towards interstellar civilization no longer exist. Shining Star Group will set its sights beyond the earth in the future, so I want to get the support of the country." Zhou Xing explained with a smile.

With the financial resources of Shining Star Group and Zhou Xing's research and development capabilities, even without the support of national policies, it is a very simple matter to enter space. Zhou Xing's special request in this regard must have other purposes at this time.

The chief looked at Zhou Xing, frowned, and asked puzzledly: "Huh? What kind of support do you need?"

Zhou Xing smiled slightly and replied, "I fully support it."

Hearing Zhou Xing's words, the chief frowned, and the incomprehension in his eyes became more intense.

Seeing this, Zhou Xing explained with a smile: "With the promotion of manufacturing application technologies such as photonic computers, biological 3D printers, robots, and new materials, the total productivity of society has increased by hundreds or thousands of times, and industrial products have overcapacity. Excessive waste has become the biggest problem in human society today."

The chief and Mr. Xu and Mr. Wen looked at each other and nodded endlessly.

The increasingly fierce competition in global trade is mainly due to the rapid development of manufacturing technology. However, the global market is so large that trade frictions between countries are increasingly intensified.

Zhou Xing looked at the head, Mr. Xu and the others, and introduced them ambitiously: "Human society lacks a large-scale industry to guide the global excess productivity. The aerospace field just meets this requirement. Therefore, I hope the government can come out to take charge of the overall situation and lead all countries Into space."

Hearing this, the chief fell silent.

Zhou Xing's idea is very good. It not only solves the problem of global overcapacity, but also fits well with the future development of mankind.

However, it is not so difficult to lead the world to develop into the aerospace field. Seven or eight years have passed since the global joint construction of the moon base project, but the project has not seen a big improvement. The "interest" value of developing space is far from Far from reaching the trend, countries are fully committed to this field.

"Xiaoxing! Although the aerospace industry is related to the future of mankind, it is not the most important thing right now." Xu Lao looked at Zhou Xing and persuaded.

Whether China has the influence to lead the world into the aerospace field is another matter. Now that the "confrontation" between China and the United States has restrained a lot of "energy" of the country, at this time, Zhou Xing's proposal is obviously out of date.

"That's right! Xiaoxing, you have to eat every bite. Right now, the country has no ability to lead the rest of the world to support your plan." Elder Wen smiled wryly, and persuaded Zhou Xing together.

The chief looked at Zhou Xing apologetically. His opinion was the same as that of Mr. Xu and Mr. Wen. Although Zhou Xing's plan was very good, ambitious and promising, it was not suitable for the current international situation.

Hearing what Xu Lao and Wen Lao said, Zhou Xing smiled slightly, not discouraged.

Zhou Xing said with a smile: "Actually, I have a way to solve this problem, but I still cannot do without the support of the state."

Elder Xu looked at Zhou Xing in surprise, and blurted out, "Huh? What can you do?"

Zhou Xing looked at Mr. Xu with a smile on his face, and introduced: "A special 'charging model' will be launched for life-prolonging genetic products, so as to lead the global resources to invest in the aerospace field."

Hearing this, the chief, Mr. Xu, and Mr. Wen glanced at each other, and Zhou Xing was stunned by what he said for a while, and didn't understand what he was thinking.

"Please explain in detail." The Chief took a deep breath, looked at Zhou Xing and asked.

Zhou Xing nodded with a smile, and said with a smile: "The research on life-prolonging gene technology is about to succeed. This is a technology that all human beings need. If Shining Star Group declares to the world, all the fees collected will be used for spaceflight. The development of the cause, seeking a living space for the future of mankind, in this way, we will get strong support from the general public!"

"Yes, if Shining Star Group can win the support of many people, how much will you charge?" Elder Xu nodded, looked at Zhou Xing and asked curiously.

Zhou Xing smiled slightly, and replied: "If the longevity gene medicine is successfully developed, then these services will charge 20% of the personal wealth of all users."

"what?"

"Why do you charge so much?"

"Why charge with a rate model?"

Hearing this, the Chief, Elder Xu, and Elder Wen all shook their spirits, looked at Zhou Xing with wide eyes, and asked questions in a voice.

20% of personal wealth, if the whole world buys Shining Star Group's life-prolonging gene medicine, it is equivalent to that Shining Star Group will control 20% of the wealth of all mankind in one fell swoop by virtue of the life-prolonging gene technology. What a huge wealth it will be !
Zhou Xing smiled, looked at Mr. Xu and the others, and asked: "Life is priceless. After using the life extension gene technology, human beings can extend their lifespan several times. Isn't it reasonable to charge 20% of personal wealth?"

After hearing Zhou Xing's answer, Mr. Xu couldn't refute, and sighed: "20% of personal wealth is a tolerable expense for ordinary people, but for those billionaires, the world's richest, it is An astonishing sum!"

"Old Xu, life is priceless and should be treated equally. 1% of the people control 50% of the world's wealth and are getting richer and richer. In fact, I should charge a higher rate for them, because life-extending genetic technology will continue. When they control the resources, if these wealth are fully developed in the aerospace field, more jobs will be created for the world, and the income treatment of the global poor will be improved, which is equivalent to a wealth redistribution." Zhou Xing replied with a smile.

Hearing this, Xu Laowei was stunned for a moment, with a look of approval on his face, convinced by Zhou Xing's explanation.

Inequality between the rich and the poor has always been an unavoidable situation in human society. There are many reasons for the gap between the rich and the poor. Unreasonable phenomena, as well as individuals and governments taking advantage of monopoly, taking advantage of loopholes, getting something for nothing, ..., there are so many things, the inequality between the rich and the poor is an obstacle that cannot be eliminated in the development of human society.

According to authoritative surveys, in terms of the distribution of wealth in human society, those who hold property in the bottom 50% of the world own less than 1% of the world's total wealth.In comparison, the top 10% of the world's rich hold 87% of the world's wealth, and the top 1% of the world's wealth alone owns 48.2% of the world's wealth. The inequality of wealth has seriously affected the harmony of human society.

Once the life-prolonging gene technology is developed, it will exacerbate the solidification time of the inequality of the world's rich and poor. However, Zhou Xing's approach is tantamount to plundering 20% ​​of the wealth of the world's rich and using it in the aerospace field. At the same time, it benefits low-income people around the world.

"This method is good, but it may not be so easy to implement!" Old Xu frowned, feeling that Zhou Xing's idea was a bit whimsical.

"Yes! Let's not talk about whether this charging model will cause a huge backlash, just counting personal wealth and charging in proportion is something that cannot be done by any technology." Wen Lao nodded with a wry smile, not optimistic Say.

Zhou Xing shook his head with a smile, and said confidently: "Since I can bring up this charging model, if I can get the full support of the state, I will definitely have a way to do it."

Hearing this, the chief fell silent again.

Since Zhou Xing dared to say such a thing, he must have a way to do it. However, this charging method will inevitably cause great dissatisfaction in the world.

For those 50% of the population who control 1% of the world's wealth, Zhou Xing's actions are completely "robbing" their wealth in an 'open and aboveboard' way. A little carelessness will bring him a huge threat to his life.

"This fee rate is too high, can it be lowered, 2% will be more secure." The chief looked at Zhou Xing and suggested.

Zhou Xing nodded and smiled, he shouted the price all over the sky, and paid back the money when he landed. It is estimated that no one can bear 20% all at once.

"Understood, but 2% is a bit low. I believe many people are willing to pay a higher price for the effect of life extension gene technology." Zhou Xing explained with a smile.

Hearing Zhou Xing's words, the Chief had a headache. In order to prolong their lives, many people are willing to pay a huge price, but they will not sit back and watch this huge wealth fall into the pockets of Shining Star Group. You know, another populous country in the world- India, and another continent - Africa, only account for 2% of the world's wealth!
For a while, he couldn't think of an excuse to persuade Zhou Xing, so the chief only procrastinated and said: "Well, you can do a detailed investigation on the specific fee! The life-prolonging genetic technology has not yet been tested in vivo, and it is still too early to say these things. "

Zhou Xing smiled and nodded: "Understood, I will definitely complete the breakthrough of the life extension gene project as soon as possible."

It is said that the head of the chief is in great trouble. Controllable nuclear fusion is already a big problem, and life-prolonging gene technology is another big problem. To solve two "big problems" that have caused earth-shaking changes in the world structure, the days to come will be a bit of a problem. Busy slightly!
"Well, it's time for us to watch it, so let's do it for today!" The chief nodded and said goodbye to Zhou Xing, saying that he didn't want to stay any longer.

Zhou Xing was stunned for a moment, and quickly said, "Okay, I'll see you off!"

The chief nodded, turned around and left quickly, he was deeply afraid that Zhou Xing would make something wrong if he stayed.

Soon, under Zhou Xing's gift, the chief, Mr. Xu, Mr. Wen and others sat on the night dancer and flew away from the headquarters building of Shining Star Group in a low-key manner.

Watching the back of the convoy turning into black spots and disappearing in a hurry in the sky, Yang Minghua looked at Zhou Xing with a puzzled expression on his face: "Mr. Zhou, why did the chief and the others leave in such a hurry? I carefully prepared the speech,... "

"The chief has a lot of things to deal with every day, maybe there are more important things to deal with!" Zhou Xing showed a happy smile on his face.

Both controllable nuclear fusion and life-extension gene technology have been handed over to the chief, and as long as the preparations are made for the announcement of life-extension gene technology and the "appropriate" timing of manufacturing, then these two technologies can be unveiled publicly.

"Oh!" Yang Minghua nodded disappointedly.

Zhou Xing smiled slightly, looked at Yang Minghua, Lin Wei ordered: "Let's have a meeting! Call Chen Fan, Li Wu, Zhou Bin and the others over."

"Okay!" Yang Minghua was stunned for a moment, and readily accepted the order.

Soon, the people named by Zhou Xing gathered in the meeting room on the top floor of the headquarters.

A meeting related to the development of human civilization began under the auspices of Zhou Xing.

--------

Time flies, and three months have passed in a blink of an eye.

Advanced photonic computers, convenient biological 3D printers, fast-moving flying cars, intelligent robots that look like all-round helpers, ..., as time goes by, human society is becoming more and more adaptable to the changes brought about by these advanced technological products.

The flying cars in the sky are speeding one after another, and there are only pedestrians and bicycles on the spacious roads and streets, and four-wheeled vehicles have become rare.

In the secluded park, the "Yuan Ding" who arranges the flowers and plants, and the dog walkers have all turned into robots. The aunt who used to dance in the square, the young people who play ball and run have disappeared, and there are only two or three kittens left in the whole park.

"Morning, Uncle Chen!" A young man walking his dog greeted an old man over sixty years old.

"Morning, Xiao Liu, I'm walking the dog again by myself! It's rare to see a young man like you now!" Chen Bo looked at the sparsely populated park and said with emotion.

"Hehe! Walking the dog by yourself will make you feel better. Uncle Chen, why don't you go into the dormant cabin! Isn't Shining Star Group researching life-prolonging genetic technology!" Xiao Liu asked puzzledly while stroking the dog's head.

"Forget it! It's against common sense to use technology to prolong life. This kind of technology can't be successful. Instead of hiding in an 'iron coffin' and being a 'living dead', I might as well enjoy some more 'twilight years'." Chen Uncle shook his head with a smile, and said indifferently.

"The benefit of fewer people is that the air is much clearer and the environment is cleaner now." Uncle Chen took a deep breath greedily and said with great enjoyment.

"Hehe, this is the result of the development of science and technology! Sanitation robots clean up the sanitation, and the air is better because there is no car exhaust." Xiao Liu explained with a smile.

"Yes! Your generation is so lucky! The technology has advanced so fast these years. I really want to see what kind of life humans will live in the future!" Uncle Chen looked at Xiao Liu with envy.

"Chen Bo, there is a column on Shining Star Group's official website, which seems to be a public opinion survey questionnaire related to life-prolonging gene technology. The life-prolonging gene technology seems to be really promising!" Xiao Liu thought of something and looked at Chen Bodao.

"Huh? What kind of questionnaire?" Chen Bo was stunned for a moment. If life-prolonging gene technology is really possible, who would be willing to die!

"I'll look for it for you." Xiao Liu turned on the light curtain of his watch, and immediately browsed through the official website of Shining Star Group.

Soon, Xiao Liu looked up at Uncle Chen with a strange expression on his face, and asked, "Uncle Chen, if life-prolonging gene technology is realized, how much would you be willing to spend to buy this technology?"

Uncle Chen rolled his eyes, looked at Xiao Liu, and said, "You think I'm stupid! Of course you are willing to do anything! Everyone is dead, so why keep the money?"

Xiao Liu looked at Uncle Chen solemnly, nodded and said, "Uncle Chen, congratulations."

"What do you mean?" Uncle Chen was dumbfounded.
