Guide to Galactic Dominance

Academician Ding showed Xiang Fei the Star Alliance Charter he brought back and discussed it briefly.

"Judging from the Iridium people I have contacted this time, Iridium people are very cautious in their attitude. Except for Bai Zhongqi, no one has expressed the problem of getting along with the earth in the future. Obviously, I think Iridium is technologically inferior. Although he is far superior to us, in politics I am afraid it is still a centralized monarch. It can be imagined that Bai Zhongqi, who is half a Chinese, plays a decisive role in the interaction between Iridium and the earth. It can be said that he is responsible for And it is never an exaggeration. This is an important benefit for us. Bai Zhongqi's attitude is relatively positive, and he is not inclined to use violent means or cause any chaos on the earth. Although he proposed the 'Star Alliance' The model is far from ideal or equal, but in every aspect we can greatly benefit from it."

Xiang Fei quickly read the Star Alliance framework concept proposed by Bai Zhongqi, and couldn't help but gasped in fright. But at the same time, he also quickly calculated the gains and losses from the standpoint of country C, and isolated the conditions that country C could not accept or needed to strive for.

Xiang Fei frowned. It was obvious that the amount of information in this Star Alliance framework was too large, making it difficult for him to get a clear and comprehensive understanding at the moment, so he gave up on the big picture and started with the details, gradually forming an overall understanding.

"This matter is too big." Xiang Fei could only say this for a long time.

Academician Ding nodded with emotion and said, "Yes, once the Star Alliance is truly established, then the history of Country C will undergo huge changes that may never have happened before, and even the impact on the earth itself will be extremely far-reaching."

Xiang Fei read a few more items, and the shock in his heart deepened. He pointed at one of the items, shook his head and sighed: "Just this one item, I'm afraid many people will not be able to refuse."

The one he was referring to was the liberation of genetic advantages. This technology is the key to the Iridium people's leap from an average lifespan and health level similar to that of people on Earth to an average lifespan and extremely strong physical fitness of more than 200 years now. There are many biological advantages in the human body's genes, but they have been imprisoned for a long time. Iridium biogenetic technology can greatly enhance human lifespan, health, physical fitness and environmental adaptability by liberating the dominant genes in biological genes. Take any Iridium person and they are far superior to world champion athletes on Earth. It's not as good as Superman in the comics, but his attributes such as strength are also very strong. Adaptability is reflected in the ability to survive on different planets. Even habitable planets will have different day and night due to different rotations, different climates due to revolutions and the relative positions of the planets in the star system, and differences in the gravity of the planets themselves. Making it difficult for organisms on other planets to adapt. The Iridium people are able to adapt to these differences in a short period of time, which also makes the Iridium people a very good migratory race in terms of biological characteristics.

Even if people from country C start to do this work now, the effect is unlikely to be better than the results achieved by Iridium people for several generations, but extending the life of a middle-aged and elderly person in their fifties and sixties for a hundred years and restoring their energy and physical condition is It can still be done.

Putting aside things like national construction and technology that benefit society and the country, just the extension of personal life span and improvement of health are enough to change many people's attitudes. Humanity's fear of death is eternal, especially the pursuit of a long life by those in power. From Qin Shihuang sending Xu Fu to the east, to Tang Taizong refining elixirs to seek immortality, even if modern people no longer pursue illusory things, they still go back to buy a variety of health care products and perform health conditioning, anything that can make them live a healthy life. There is a longer and better way that people are willing to try.

As long as they agree to join the Star Alliance, Iridium promises to liberate the genetic advantages of all people of country C, extend the life span and enhance the physical fitness of all people. And beings in high positions will naturally be the first to receive this benefit.

Xiang Fei sighed bitterly at this time: "The Iridium people have too many and too good bargaining chips. We can't refuse almost every item. How can we bargain if we only use this genetic advantage to free ourselves? As long as the Iridium people hold this one If we don't let it go, we will have no solution at all. This is just one thing, and the temptation is too great. This head of state, Bai Zhongqi, is also well aware of our domestic situation. Although our politics is not democratically elected, it is a politics that is highly responsible for public opinion. He put genes When the advantageous liberation is leaked, public opinion will explode immediately. Who doesn’t want to live for another hundred years, and who doesn’t want to be safe and free from disasters and diseases. The government cannot suppress this situation at all, so it can only bite the bullet and follow Iridium. The starman compromised.”

Academician Ding nodded with deep sympathy and said: "Controllable nuclear fusion reactors, quantum leap communications in the true sense, neuron production lines that can increase the scale of our manufacturing industry ten thousand times, plus resources from other planets, a possible new land . None of them are things we can refuse.”

Academician Ding continued: "Do not interfere in the earth's affairs of the country, space development and exploration affairs follow the baton of Iridium, open immigration and exchanges, and share the resources of the Star Alliance. This basic principle itself is much better than we thought. The country’s previous vision was to establish equal diplomatic relations and trade exchanges with Earth countries, but the Iridium people’s advantage is too great. Even ordinary trade is enough to destroy any industry or economy on the planet. And we ourselves It is true that we don’t have many bargaining chips for such an alien civilization, if we want to make great progress. The bad thing about Star Alliance is that it ties us to the Iridium chariot. We don’t care about this The alien forces are still not fully understood, and it is not clear whether they have ulterior motives. But what is the worst case scenario? If the Iridium destroys the earth, everyone will inevitably die together. The concept of Star Alliance, It was proposed by the head of state Bai Zhongqi. We can only hope that he cares about procreation and is kind-hearted. Otherwise, the consequences will be unimaginable.

In fact, at this juncture, we actually have no choice. Historical experience tells us that if a country does not advance in its development, it will retreat. If we do not join the Star Alliance, it is inevitable that Iridium will not seek cooperation with other countries. If other countries receive these benefits, they may in turn bully our country. At that time, it will be more terrifying than the century of humiliation we faced before liberation. Our country is also facing many problems now. As far as the economy is concerned, there is great pressure from industrial transformation, and social conflicts are becoming increasingly diversified and acute. Joining the Star Alliance and starting our country's interstellar era is an excellent breakthrough. "

Xiang Fei looked at Academician Ding. Even in pain, Academician Ding's eyes were extremely clear, and his thoughts and attitude were very clear.

"I understand. Academician Ding's opinion is that we cooperate with the Iridium people to establish this star alliance?"

Academician Ding said: "Negotiations still need to be negotiated, but the opportunity must not be lost."

Xiang Fei also nodded cautiously and said, "I understand what you mean, and I will convey it to the leaders."
