Population Screening
Next, the diplomats of the New Humanity played a carefully produced documentary, focusing on the operation of the entire alliance, its technological strength, and its future development direction.
This documentary is like a science fiction blockbuster, and the Lenino people in front of the screen were stunned for a moment. Many white-haired orangutans even think that these movies are made with special effects and do not think that they really exist.
"Really? Their planet can move?"
"Of course it's true. If aliens can't do this, can they still be called aliens?"
"What does the commander-in-chief who knows the most about aliens say? Give me some reference!"
"God, please take us away, please. Take us to heaven!" Some magicians are still talking nonsense there. In fact, they are extremely panicked because aliens have really appeared! All the previous deceptions are likely to be exposed...then the angry believers will have to pluck out their skins!
However, the diplomats of the new human race did not pay attention to the various Lenino people, and just spoke in front of the screen: "... If you yearn for poetry and the distance, you can consider joining us and working together for a better tomorrow; If you want to live a rich and privileged life, please stay on your original planet..."
"Because we advocate equality for everyone, pursue the unknown, and satisfy our own curiosity, rather than simply having fun..."
After this video was broadcast, many Lenino people were tossing and turning and had trouble sleeping, and the Internet was full of debates in this regard.
Deep in the soul, it seems that a wonderful switch has been turned on. Who doesn't want to go to more distant places?
But... no.
Think about the cost.
And think about everything we have here...
Several students in the school are discussing: "Are you going? I'm really fed up with those sanctimonious tutors! I want to join a new society! And then start a new life!"
Another said: "I... better forget it."
"Why?!"
"I'm thinking, am I really suitable for scientific research? Thinking about it carefully, I'm actually not suitable. I just enjoy the feeling of being superior to others in terms of IQ. In the alien alliance, can I still be superior to others? I have been thinking about my future. What does it look like? Is it really like reading articles and doing scientific research while standing on a university podium?"
"According to the other party's wishes, you have to be willing to be lonely, run data and write articles all day long, and slowly produce some results for decades. It's not like you imagined... the other party's alliance is purely composed of researchers. Alliance, are we really like this?"
The student who spoke at the beginning also fell silent. He just saw that his own society was not good, and that the other party's world was better and had more opportunities... However, they were really the kind of people with high moral standards and the calmness to do research. ?
Will they be able to endure even a few decades or three hundred years to produce some results?
If not, you won't be happy joining this alliance.
Therefore, there is no point in joining the alliance wishfully.
…
Not only the student group, but also the professors who had some status were silent. They began to reflect on whether they were really willing to join this alliance...
In fact, there is no glamorous life, just a simple and unpretentious life, pursuing the truth.
Once you make a decision, there is no regret!
The literary workers who made a fuss at the beginning also kept their mouths shut. They just wanted to find an excuse to improve their salary... Now that capital has lowered its head a little, dividing one group and then recruiting another group, it is no longer possible to cause trouble. .
On the contrary, there are a large number of homeless homeless people who are eager to join this alien alliance. They have nothing anyway, so they might as well start over in a new environment.
They just took a fancy to the wealth and power of the new human civilization.
But it was obvious that the personal and spiritual qualities of this group of homeless people did not meet the regulations, and they were ruthlessly dismissed.
"Why did you reject me?"
"Great alien civilization, please save the poor!!"
"Please accept me, father alien..."
Among those who signed up a few days ago, not a single person qualified, they were all speculators who couldn't survive!
Even the official security forces of the Lenino civilization began to take advantage of the opportunity to attack criminals who wanted to seek refuge with aliens, because it was often a group of criminals who signed up with great interest, and they were sure to catch one!
After Zhang Yuan learned about this, he sighed. When he saw the workers over there who were scratching their heads and ears, he felt a little funny again.
"Don't be anxious. The truly talented Lenino people are still thinking about it. They need time to make a choice. Even if they don't have this kind of talent... After all, our requirements are too harsh. Alien The alliance is a completely unfamiliar existence to them."
Another diplomat also sighed deeply: "Hey, what kind of talents do we need? Pure researchers? But such researchers are very few and need a cultural atmosphere to cultivate them. I think this civilization can not many..."
Zhang Yuan nodded and said: "Scientific researchers? People with a simple, rough and innocent temperament like Brother Flathead are most suitable for scientific research; people with too many ideas and too deep a city are not suitable for scientific research. People with low self-esteem are not suitable for scientific research. People with low IQs are not suitable either... Calculated this way, it's really hard to find."
"However, now that we have done this, no one is really willing to get on the ship, and we have a clear conscience. Anyway, if they stay here, they will be assimilated by the Aleph civilization sooner or later... I now feel that giving these sinkers Assimilated, it seems to be nothing, at least it's better than living in a dream like this now."
The Aleph civilization's detector colonization plan will spread here, if it is fast, it will take a few hundred years, if it is slower, it may take one or two thousand years.
Therefore, these Lenino people can only be cool for so long.
But so what?
Human beings would not deliberately remind them, and even if they did, it would not be of much use... This civilization would not be able to climb to the fourth level within a thousand years.
A military leader smiled and said: "Do you think they are living in a dream, but they think their life is very good?"
The diplomat shook his head: "It is precisely because of this that the universe is darker..."
In this way, time passed day after day, and some speculators who could not survive were ruthlessly screened out.
There are also some capable Lenino people who are not willing to abandon everything now and join the alliance...
A month later, a small number of people finally signed up one after another; a year later, only 5,000 qualified people were screened out!
Moreover, most experts and scholars began to retreat after seeing how few people joined. The population is so small that it is difficult to even establish a basic political framework, and it can only serve as a subsidiary civilization of the new humanity.
Under such circumstances, highly intelligent scholars have slowly regained their composure from the initial frenzy. When they first saw this technologically powerful alliance, the clear academic environment, and the optimistic social atmosphere, they must have been yearning for it.
However, after calming down, you will find that no matter how dark and corrupt the original civilization is, it is still their home... What they want to abandon is everything they have.
Is there really such a kind of saint who pursues the truth regardless of everything?
nonexistent.
Will a mere five thousand people entering a strange environment really be happier than they are now?
I don't know... maybe it will feel fresh at first, but as time goes by, you might regret it.
For these 5,000 qualified scholars who have passed the screening, humans are not reluctant. Anyway, they only need to make a decision before the departure date.
Even tell them that it's not too late to quit now!
