"Virtual reality technology is only a small part of the change, and subsequent changes will only become more and more rapid."
As the investor who gave Zheng Li the initial resources after coming to Blue Star, Lei Jun has already made back his investment hundreds of times.
Lei Jun wanted to see Zheng Li, but Zheng Li would still give him face most of the time.
Although the person communicating with Lei Jun most of the time is not Zheng Li himself, but the artificial intelligence.
If measured by Blue Star's Turing Test, the primary artificial intelligence of the Mage Alliance can all pass the Turing Test.
This time when Lei Jun came over, it was Zheng Li who came to talk to him.
Because Lei Jun had some official will from China.
Although he came here for himself and rice, there must be official instructions behind it.
Zheng Li could guess that Lei Jun would tell the Chinese side exactly what he and Lei Jun meant.
Lei Jun is not him. He has the ability to flip the table and stop playing at any time. Rice cannot exist without the Chinese market.
Therefore it is extremely important to act within the rules of the game.
However, Lei Jun's awareness of current affairs is also reflected here. He emphasized before the dialogue began that he would report the content of their conversation to Chinese officials.
In addition, without Academician Zhao around, Lei Jun was much more relaxed than last time:
"Everyone has different perspectives. In my opinion, it is an important crisis related to the life and death of rice, but in your opinion, it is just part of the change."
Zheng Li nodded and said: "The virtual reality world is very important to Blue Star's past changes, but if you look at the present from the perspective of the future, you will feel that the present is just the prelude to change."
Lei Jun: "I think virtual reality technology like the one I experienced may not be possible in a hundred years if Blue Star relies on itself."
Zheng Li smiled: "One hundred years? At least five hundred years.
And this is without taking any detours.
Blue Star's progress in biotechnology is much slower than in other disciplines.
Virtual reality is almost impossible to achieve with silicon-based chips.
The ceiling for silicon-based chips is obvious, but there is no ceiling for carbon-based chips, at least so far.
Blue Star needs to switch from the track of silicon-based chips to carbon-based chips, and at the same time, it must develop without making any detours along the way. "
After Zheng Li finished speaking, Lei Jun added: "It seems that five hundred years is an optimistic estimate.
So have you ever thought about whether Blue Star people and the entire Blue Star society would be able to accept the release of technology five hundred years in the future? "
Zheng Li asked, "Does this have anything to do with me?
I did not cause large-scale damage to Blue Star, nor did I harm the lives of Blue Star people.
On the contrary, I also brought knowledge to Blue Star that is much more advanced than yours.
From the perspective of civilization, I allowed Blue Star Civilization to evolve. "
Lei Jun knew that he had said the wrong thing, and he quickly explained: "I don't mean to blame you at all.
Or maybe it means something else. I just want to hear your views on this incident from the perspective of a collision between civilizations. "
Zheng Li nodded and said, "Understood."
Li Miaomiao, who was also in the conference room, explained:
“Brother, I think the leapfrog development of technology is undoubtedly a good thing for the bottom class.
The originally solidified classes were broken again, giving the class an opportunity to flow again.
More importantly, the leapfrog development of technology can bring benefits to every individual involved.
Modern people, even at the bottom, enjoy a better quality of life than the ancient scholar-bureaucrat class.
The modern middle class can have more material satisfaction and spiritual enjoyment than anyone in ancient times.
These are brought about by the advancement of science and technology leading to the development of productivity. "
After Li Miaomiao saw the virtual reality equipment, she thought a lot about the impact of virtual reality based on her own experience.
In the final analysis, only the further development of productive forces will create new social relations and make society more fair and reasonable.
This is true no matter which region.
Take China as an example. The truth system has tied a sword of Damocles to the grassroots. If they break through the bottom line, they can easily be caught.
Nowadays, the big traditional media are not afraid of no news, but of fake news. They dare to publish some shocking incidents that spontaneously break out, as long as the whistleblower is willing to accept a systematic investigation of the truth.
This makes the ecology at the bottom of China far better than it was ten years ago, let alone thirty or forty years ago.
The credibility brought by technology is more effective than any amount of publicity.
Lei Jun: "Actually, I'm not here for rice. I don't know what rice will be like in the future.
But I am confident that with the wisdom and hard work of Rice people, we can still achieve success in the new era.
I came for myself and I was confused about the future. As the head of a giant company, if I fail to make correct strategic decisions, it will be the biggest irresponsibility for the future of rice as a whole.
So I mainly want to chat with you this time. Of course, Miao Miao’s views are also very insightful. "
Lei Jun really doesn't have much hope that he can still cooperate with Zheng Li in the virtual reality world.
In his opinion, this cake is too big, and it has no place for rice or goose factory.
Only the Chinese government can eat this piece of cake.
His most urgent purpose this time was to understand Zheng Li's thoughts and what he wanted to transform Blue Star into.
Lei Jun has no doubt that Zheng Li has this ability and motivation.
Even if the forces of Blue Star are unwilling to cooperate with Zheng Li, they cannot stop individuals from yearning for a better life.
The most fundamental reason why China has turned major disadvantages into minor disadvantages in the field of public opinion is because the Chinese people's perception of life is getting better.
Therefore, in Lei Jun's view, Blue Star is defenseless against virtual reality and other advanced technologies that reduce dimensionality.
He wanted to know what the future would look like in Zheng Li's eyes.
No one is better able to know what the future will be like than an intelligent life form from a more developed civilization.
This is the same as when Americen’s angel investors came to China to invest in the Internet industry, because they knew what kind of track would be popular and what kind of companies could survive.
Although American's local Internet companies are somewhat acclimated in China, American's investment institutions have made a lot of money.
This is a gap caused by the gap in vision, just like the wealthy people in China investing in real estate in Ho Chi Minh City.
Only by experiencing it can you know what will happen in the future.
“What is your desired future?”
Zheng Li thought for a while and said: "I will change the world according to my ideas on the premise of respecting the Blue Star people.
The most valuable thing about Blue Star to me is its talents, especially those who can inspire and help me in scientific research.
I hope that Blue Star’s value system can tilt towards scientific research and will do so in the future.
I will use the money I get from virtual reality technology and some subsequent new technologies for research and development.
But I will lead and be deeply involved in all R&D projects.
We can also cooperate with various countries on some research and development projects.
My sensitivity to technical routes and scientific research will definitely help Blue Star achieve leapfrog development in its overall technological level.
Without me, even if there are already virtual reality organisms, if you want to reverse engineer the biocomputer technology, it would ideally take a hundred years.
It will take at least two hundred years to reverse engineer virtual reality and achieve virtual reality technology with similar effects.
I can directly give these technologies to Blue Star, but this is a process of equal exchange. Blue Star needs to exchange technologies that I think are valuable.
As long as I think it's valuable.
This is cooperation, which can achieve the effect of one plus one being greater than two. "
Lei Jun asked: "I wonder if you have read the Dark Forest Theory. This is the most famous science fiction in China in the past forty years."
Zheng Li nodded and said, "I've seen it.
The Dark Forest is built on the two premises that all civilizations in the universe are unable to transform the planet, and that living planets are rare and special existences.
In fact, living planets are not as special as the Blue Star people think. Just from the cosmic coordinate system and the Heiber constant, you should be able to see that there are actually many planets suitable for intelligent life in the entire universe.
And not all life is as fragile as the Blue Star people.
The ecological environment of Mars is completely feasible for some intelligent life to survive.
The second is resources. After breakthroughs in energy technology are achieved, the energy in the universe is actually unlimited.
Coupled with planetary mining technology, there is no need to worry about resources at all.
And another key issue is that civilization does not always expand.
The problem of endogeneity is unavoidable for all civilizations.
Civilizations that can transcend their native planets and become interstellar civilizations are rare.
Most civilizations have died before they have taken this step.
It's a very simple truth. Just looking at many blue star developed countries, you will find that the fertility rate in developed countries is declining.
Civilizations that are more developed than Blue Star have lower fertility rates.
This kind of civilization relies entirely on technology to create the next generation, and this process is completely controllable.
So civilization does not expand forever, and resources are effectively unlimited.
Destroying or enslaving other civilizations is a very low-level approach. Generally speaking, civilizations that can enter the interstellar era will not do this kind of thing. "
"The Romance of Fairy Wood"
After hearing this, Lei Jun felt that it made sense, but he didn't completely believe what Zheng Li said.
"Also, for example, if I become you now, I can completely control the characters in key positions, and then colonize the entire Blue Star.
But this is not necessary.
Blue Star's wealth and resources are worthless to me.
The only thing of value to me about Blue Star is the knowledge I don't know.
This is what I want and what Blue Star can give me. "
Zheng Li's last words were spoken through Lei Jun's mouth.
Lei Jun was obviously conscious, but found that he could not control his body. At the same time, his words echoed in his mind.
After Zheng Li finished speaking, Lei Jun moved his tongue, knowing that he could control his body again:
"Amazing skills."
