Volume 5 Destiny Chapter 1 Poor Robot

Previous page        Return to Catalog        Next page

    The earth-shattering Life Extension Liquid was leaked out ten years ago. It caused a lot of noise and chaos for many years. Human society is full of messy things.

    The changes in the social structure caused by the life-extension liquid are obvious. Confused people cannot judge a person's true age. The supremacy of love has made ethical issues serious again, and the generational hierarchy has a tendency to become chaotic.  Although the ethical and moral system of human society may seem boring, it is very important. It maintains social order. We cannot always focus on its shortcomings. There is no perfect solution.

    In any case, advanced technology has greatly enhanced Weizhou¡¯s ability to expand, aborigines and non-Wistian immigrants have been diluted, and a large number of related populations and local residents of Weizhou have quietly changed Australia¡¯s political landscape.

    When Li Zhuang was 79 years old, the company completely took control of Australia, and its subordinate wsf and wdf were respectively classified into ausf and audf, which were formed by integrating various forces, namely the Australian Special Forces and the Australian Defense Force.  AUDF consists of five major commands: Army, Navy, Air Force, Space Force and Strategy, integrating the company with Canberra's classified research.

    Among the agencies under the Security Committee, the Ministry of Internal Affairs was streamlined, the Overseas Investigation Bureau absorbed experienced personnel from other forces, the Intelligence Bureau of the Ministry of Security became the National Security Bureau, and the Intelligence Bureau of the Ministry of Defense was established to be responsible for military intelligence.  The Security Committee was transformed into the Congressional Security Committee, which directly oversees five agencies including the Department of the Interior, the Overseas Investigation Service, the National Security Agency, the Defense Intelligence Agency, and the Bureau of Extraterrestrial Affairs.

    In view of the expansion of the space colony, the states have not been re-divided, including Wilson, Western Australia, Northern Australia, South Australia, Queensland, New South Wales, Tasmania and other seven states. The capital is still Canberra, a prime ministerial system is adopted, and the president is the head of state.  .  Li Zhuang had no interest in being president, so Da Mian reluctantly took the position. The prime minister was also from Wisconsin, and Roderick Menzies, vice president of United Technologies Corporation, became the new prime minister.

    With complete control over Australia, United Technologies has carried out a new round of adjustments and listed all major group companies, but only to local Australian investors.  Wesson Technology remains, Australia has become a large United Technologies Corporation, and the company's industrial organization has been completely broken into pieces.

    The assimilation of other parts of Australia has allowed Weizhou to clear all political obstacles. Under the careful operation of the management, no major problems have occurred.  This slow peaceful penetration is irresistible, and many people are even a little impatient. Joining the Weizhou system means that they will enjoy better benefits and use more things that they cannot use, while their own rights will be slightly damaged.  , there are only a very small number of people who are frustrated.

    There is no need to take into account Canberra¡¯s attitude. We are all our own people. When Li Zhuang was eighty years old, he restored Chinese nationality.  When Jingcheng received the application form, it was like a hot potato. He was in a dilemma, but he did not dare to refuse easily.  As the biggest overseas Chinese, Li Zhuang is a political bellwether. United Technologies has a large number of partners in the country, and the penetration is deep and cannot be solved.

    The matter was resolved smoothly in the end without causing much ripples in Australia, because employees born and raised in Wisconsin have taken control of United Technologies, and they are now representatives of local forces.

    The holiday system in Wisconsin is very complex. After Charles Emerson became the fifth president, a large number of holidays were readjusted. In addition to the holidays set by the United Nations and Australia Day, December 24th to January 7th is the highlight of Wisconsin.  , December 30 is Qingming Festival.  Chinese festivals use the lunar calendar. This calendar, called the lunar calendar, is obviously not up to date with the times. Scientific and technological agriculture does not follow the lunar calendar. The geographical locations of Australia and China are also different. This country in the southern hemisphere has four seasons that are reversed compared to those in the northern hemisphere.

    The title "Spring Festival" was cancelled, and "Nian" was used directly. Because the Chinese language is universal, there is no difficulty in the transition.  The fifteen-day long holiday is diverse in content and combines the traditional characteristics of the East and the West.  The old Chinese employees were stunned when they saw this scene. However, under the company's system, they had no way to prevent the employees from passing the resolution in a referendum.

    The reason for this situation is very simple. Young people find the tricks interesting. Besides, Weizhou¡¯s New Year arrangements blend tradition and modernity. Many of the etiquette and habits are decent, and many of them are very authentic. But the time is wrong, which makes people feel very strange.  awkward.

    ¡°Whether Weizhou controlled Australia or Australia assimilated to Weizhou, it is really hard to say. Anyway, people in other regions have no sense. This peaceful annexation method of mutual integration has advantages and disadvantages.  As the scope of control expanded, the asa became the true Australian Space Agency and was split.

    The major forces have risen again, and negotiations to establish the Earth Federation have lasted for decades. Everyone wants to unite, but no one wants to suffer a loss. This far-reaching alliance is very difficult and cannot be completed in a short time.  Although there are many political problems, economic globalization has further strengthened. Gold certificates have played a major monetary function and become a real earth dollar, accepted by all countries. However, it is more deformed than the Euro at the beginning.  As for when this situation will be resolved?It is unknown whether the current situation will be re-divided due to the obstruction of major forces, and the future cannot be determined.

    United Technologies has not defeated anyone. As its scale expands, its management becomes increasingly complex, and it gradually becomes no different from a country.  Its membership is complex and it has no real rival, if any, it is Citigroup.  This is a strange country. After experiencing the ravages of the GK virus, it has become more capable, and NASA's power has greatly increased.  Australia and Citigroup are fighting fiercely on the ground, but NASA and asa astronauts cooperate happily on the moon and Mars, often communicating with each other. The lonely outer space can unite mankind even more.

    If we look at employee sources, Asa has not defeated NASA.  ASA started late. Because it is a commercial organization with huge investment, it progresses faster than NASA, which relies on state funding, and its focus is different.  As the company is repeatedly split up, internal friction is increasing, which is inevitable and human nature dictates.

    In short, politics is simpler and more complicated than imagined. Even within Wesson Technology, there are different schools and different ideas.  Management is a university subject, and everyone has different ideas, which cannot be explained clearly in a few words.

    In the eyes of wise old people, there are not so many stories, and the grievances and hatreds of youth seem like a dream.  It is difficult for young people to understand this state of mind.  There is a story, but there is no story. It is plain and true.

    After Li Zhuang¡¯s 80th birthday, he completely disappeared from the public eye, and even few people in Weizhou could see him.  He lived in seclusion in a forest nearly 30 kilometers away from home, living like an ascetic. He seemed not very clear-headed and kept talking all day long, almost like a mental illness.  The fate of such an influential figure of a generation was such that the media took pity on him and called him a "poor robot."

    Lisa tried to persuade her for a while, but found that it was ineffective, so she stopped taking care of her and became the king of children, taking care of their third generation.  This couple has persisted without divorce for so many years, which is a miracle in the eyes of many people.  Everyone has a different outlook on life. Lisa is a devout Christian and has never thought about divorce.  Then again, we are all old and there is no point in getting divorced.

    The ups and downs outside have nothing to do with Li Zhuang. He doesn't even bother to care. Maybe he sees through the world of mortals, or maybe he's doing other things.  On his eightieth birthday, the gifts he received were quite strange. Each one was stranger than the last, which surprised the guests. The strangest ones were the collar, the treasure house and the box.

    The gift given by brothers Li Weihe and Li Weihu was something similar to a collar. No matter how I looked at it, I felt that it was not suitable to be worn around the neck.  Li Zhuang was very happy and praised the two brothers for their progress.

    Son-in-law Yu Kaiting presented a model of the "treasure room" as a gift on behalf of his family. The finished product is quite large. It is a special device that condenses the efforts of the Physics Department. As for its purpose, no one knows.

    What my sister Li Xiang gave me was a simple box. It was old and it didn¡¯t seem to be a precious item.

    After his birthday, Li Zhuang officially moved to a villa in the forest, which was very simple and modern.  The collar was placed around his neck, the "treasure room" was placed in the deep basement of the villa, and the diary was locked in a lockbox.  This villa has no special features, except for a large library and electronic reading room.

    The lonely villa is expensive to build and uses a variety of advanced technologies. The owner paid for it himself and comes with the latest base protection system.  The sun was shining brightly in the morning. It was summer and it was a bit hot, but it was very comfortable to lie under the shade of the trees.

    Li Zhuang opened the box gently. Inside were ten diaries, with old and new covers. Some were written by him, and some were written by his sister Li Xiang. There was a note on the box.  He picked it up and looked at it, and was surprised when he saw it said: "You asked me to keep and record these things. You said that if you retire, you will give these diaries to you."

    "When did I ask Li to do these jobs? Why don't I remember it at all?" Li Zhuang scratched his head, a little strange. He didn't know whether he forgot or just said it casually.  He uses his brain too much, and his memory has deteriorated, and he is no longer what he used to be.

    The diary is very ordinary. The trademark on it is still a well-known Chinese brand. The quality is good, but it looks old after being touched many times by the owner.

    Li Zhuang gently opened the notebook and turned it from back to front, indicating that the diary he picked up was written by him. This is a rare habit.  The content inside is very old. The earliest content dates back to the second grade of elementary school. There are many typos, many of which are very interesting.  The key points were all circled with red pen, but Li Zhuang still read it carefully this time to experience the changes in his mood, mentality and personality when he wrote the diary.

    Li Zhuang has three diaries in total. He rarely writes personal diaries after work. What he writes every day is basically a work diary. But once he feels something is sensitive, he will often express it in obscure language. Only those who are very familiar with him will  Only people can understand.

    The final chapter of his private diary was written after he returned from his trip to Morocco., he called Li Xiang in Morocco, it didn¡¯t take long, but now he can¡¯t remember what he said.  I didn¡¯t write any more personal diaries after that, not even the content about Lisa and the children. Perhaps because I have matured and know that secrets are best kept in your own mind.

    Li Xiang wrote her diary very early. She is also a very smart person, but she is very lazy. She likes to write diaries that are very detailed. However, it is not common to write about her brother specifically. They should be divided into two categories.  There is a thin booklet sandwiched in the diary. Judging from the material, it was written after arriving in Australia. It is unique because it bears the mark of the company's laboratory trial product.

    "My brother is a strange person. I have felt that there is something abnormal about him since I was a child. I don't know if it is because I am too sensitive or because he is very superstitious. I suspect that he has autism or some kind of strange disease."

    Li Zhuang couldn't help but smile when he saw this. The brother and sister had a tacit understanding. Others didn't know Li Xiang's secret, but Li Zhuang knew that he was good at observing and very careful since he was a child.  The number of secrets of the human body is staggering. It is not a simple biological system. Compared with other animals, human intuition and weird behaviors are no worse. Some of them cannot be explained by science, but they do exist.

    "I don't like my sister-in-law, she just looks normal. When I first saw her, I felt something was wrong, but then my feelings slowly disappeared and she became more and more normal. I  My brother wanted to physically destroy the fanatics, but he didn¡¯t expect that there was a fanatic in the family. My sister-in-law is a devout believer and is a good match for my brother. Maybe my brother is a fanatic. A family composed of two weirdos, poor Shuangwei  !¡±

    Li Zhuang touched his chin after reading it and scratched his head a little. Lisa had some little secrets, but she didn¡¯t tell them and it was hard to ask. Everyone has secrets and taboos, so it¡¯s better to keep things under wraps.  His solution was to use Lisa's kindness and maternal nature to keep the believer busy all day long, busy with family affairs. As long as people are not idle, they will have fewer weird ideas.  The third generation of the two has more than 60 children. Lisa is very happy to take care of her children every day after retirement.

    The eldest son, Shuangwei, is the most mediocre and balanced among all the children. Compared with ordinary people, he is still very smart. After graduating from Ph.D., he first did research and development, then management, and he is very prestigious in the family.  Compared with his younger brothers and sisters, he is the most normal one. The others are more or less peculiar, such as Xin Ling and Wei He.  It seemed that the two children knew the secret of the emerald necklace. When they asked for a special item to be made, they acted strangely and did not ask any questions.

    Li Zhuang was reminded of the mysterious connection between himself and his mother. He asked many people, but the rumors were nonsense. Scientists either disdained it or felt that existing theories could not explain it, but they could not deny it.  The uniqueness of the trumpet family has become more and more obvious as time goes by. Through decades of continuous observation, I have obtained some usable data.  These should not be displayed on such a simple emotion simulation level 6 intelligence brain. The level 1 intelligence brain that has invested a lot of effort is somewhat different from the intelligence brains launched by other institutions.

    The words written at the end of the booklet surprised Li Zhuang, "My brother has not been interested in aerospace since he was a child. I don't know why he invested a large amount of his dividends in asa. If it is just to research AI, he can entrust other institutions to handle it. The company  Now he is a different person, something is wrong, he will not get any benefits if he continues like this, it is not in line with his outlook on life, and he is a person who cannot pull back ten cows."

    Li Zhuang pondered for a moment, then flipped through the words written by his sister recording his changes in behavior. His face was serious at first, then slowly relaxed, and finally he took a deep breath and murmured to himself, "I finally confirmed my suspicion, poor man."  Robot, haha, poor robot!"
