"The method is very simple, I have said it before."
Su Zhiyun stood in the center of the hall with an upright posture and said calmly:
"Let everyone in Zhonghai City know the existence of the monster, and let them believe that the official can handle this matter."
In the center of the conference hall, the gray-haired older leader asked: "You mean, his so-called power of 'belief'?"
"Yes." Su Zhiyun nodded.
"..."
The conference hall was quiet for a moment.
In fact, some things are really not "unexpected" problems, but problems that cannot be done.
Before this, officials had tried to train people with Zhou Qi's abilities, but they had all failed without exception.
The authorities have also looked for many experts and professors who have made achievements in psychology and spirituality, as well as hypnosis masters, etc. to conduct research, but there has been no positive feedback.
As an official, Su Zhiyun should have known these things, but she still proposed this idea...
Why?
In short, at this moment, perhaps because Zhou Qi personally expressed his opinion on this, or perhaps something Su Zhiyun said touched the hearts of those present, they finally re-examined the details and feasibility of this direction.
Someone asked thoughtfully:
"Isn't this Zhou Qi's unique 'superpower'? We cannot understand it with our current scientific level."
"Just because you can't understand it doesn't mean you can't use it." Su Zhiyun emphasized with a serious face: "He has actually taught us how to use it."
The man continued to ask: "What do you mean?"
Su Zhiyun looked at these leaders and continued: "In that negotiation, he used a very strange attitude to forcefully tell us the principle of this ability. Why is this? I believe that if he only thinks about himself, what will happen to him?" Not to mention that it brought him greater benefits...
"If you think about it carefully, whether it is the method he uses to save people or the method he uses to threaten us, they all use the same logic, similar to 'cognition can change reality'. I think he is conveying this concept to us. ,
"So we can definitely follow this logic and first change the perception of the entire Zhonghai City to buy us time, and then let the public's perception change us, allowing us to make breakthroughs in various fields."
"..."
Everyone present fell into silence following these words.
Change perception? Will our knowledge change us?
Both of these leaders frowned.
What Su Zhiyun said is easy to understand, but the question is...how to implement it?
You know, according to Zhou Qi, the ability he displayed involves 'mental power', which is an area that cannot be explained by current science.
Let’s put it another way,
In fact, this problem of mental power is not new now, but everyone knows that this problem is already imminent.
What Zhou Qi has been doing these days is not only conveying to them that "cognition can change reality", but also warning them about the importance of mental power in the doomsday. He has almost said it clearly: in the doomsday, no matter what you want, The key to surviving, trying not to become a monster, or even solving monsters lies in controlling one's own spiritual world...
Even if we don't talk about this, let's just say that Zhou Qi himself has used mental means to trick the officials many times. The officials also want to lose face and have long wanted to regain their place...
only……
They cannot open the door by any means. Although people have made countless conjectures and experiments on consciousness and souls throughout the ages, they are still standing outside the door after self-healing and becoming the masters of the earth. They can only rely on one to reborn countless people. This makes them feel powerless when they try to get a glimpse of a corner of that field.
So before Su Zhiyun came here and expressed his opinion, they were still unwilling to abandon their belief in traditional science for many years and turn their heads to study the illusory spiritual world, because the way forward was completely unknown...
"..."
Soon, someone said: "Go on."
These three words are concise and comprehensive, but the implication is, [We understand what you want to express, but how should the problem be solved? Now it’s time to put it into practice]
Su Zhiyun nodded slightly and continued:
"I know that the biggest problem plaguing the authorities now is the so-called 'mental power', but in fact this is a misunderstanding. Of course, Zhou Qi relies on mental power to use this ability, but he cannot use this kind of power without mental power. Ability? According to him, this was not something he realized on his own, but was developed in the original direction by us humans in the apocalypse...
"It's like Homo sapiens from the future gave us primitive humans a gun. At least now, what we have to think about is how to pull the trigger, not how to develop gunpowder..."
"..."
"..."
As the expressions of everyone present began to change, Su Zhiyun added again with full aura:
"If we compare his ability to a kind of collective hypnosis, we are not completely ignorant of it... The official has the ability to control people's minds, doesn't it?"
Yes Yes……
The leading officials present were all smart people, and they quickly thought along this line of thought——
A few days ago, in order to satisfy Zhou Qi's "requirements", they completely cut off all connections between the country and the outside world on the Internet. Following that, they cut off Zhonghai's connection with the entire country...
Although this has brought great pressure to the country, it has also created a completely closed public opinion environment in Zhonghai that can be manipulated at will!
In other words, the people in Zhonghai are now on alert, because the unreasonable current situation will quickly make them doubt what is happening here.
In this case, the official's delay in giving an answer will make them more and more suspicious, and even become panicky. Until the day when the official can't suppress the complete exposure, it will trigger a violent counterattack...
Oh, speaking of which, Zhou Qi also said that he would come back soon to resolve the matter, but the officials did not dare to believe him anymore.
But what if everyone knew the truth now?
The people's emotions have not been tightened so much now, and there is still a lot of room for tolerance. If you inform them of the current situation at this time, they will be panicked for a while at most. On the basis of this situation, they can still squeeze out the pressure. The officials who have invested some resources and energy have created a serious but relaxed atmosphere, giving the public the idea that "the officials can solve this matter"...
In this way, a win-win situation can be achieved: they will be less stressed and will have more energy to research solutions. And if the people's "belief" can really bring that kind of magical power, this will It completely constitutes the situation Su Zhiyun mentioned...but...wait...
"..."
Yes, there is one more if.
At this moment, although everyone's minds suddenly became clear with the ideas provided by Su Zhiyun, and the haze of losing their emotions before was swept away, there was still a stone still weighing on their hearts.
What Su Zhiyun just said was "put aside the issue of mental power", but the fact is that they cannot put aside the issue of mental power.
Indeed, if this method is implemented, it can reduce a lot of pressure on the official and bring more operating space and time, but the key point is that this hypnosis method is really effective. If it is not effective, it is equivalent to taking Millions of lives were lost in a city to buy time for the authorities.
Since then, this method makes no sense from any angle and completely violates the country's political philosophy.
"..."
The atmosphere in the conference hall was a little strange and awkward. It was obvious that almost everyone present had thought of this under such silent thinking.
Amidst the exchange of looks and expressions among the people present, the gray-haired leader looked at Su Zhiyun and spoke:
“This idea is very feasible, but the key point still lies in whether we can use that capability.
"We can guide people's thoughts and behaviors, we can turn black into white, and make them believe in a fact that does not exist at all... But from the current scientific point of view, reality is reality, and there is still a difference between fantasy and fantasy. There is an insurmountable gap. The difference between us and Zhou Qi is not the means, but the results that the means can achieve.
"He said that the key to his effectiveness is that he has a magical power that can change the facts, rather than simply making everyone believe in him... How to solve this?"
Su Zhiyun looked at him calmly,
After a few seconds, she said without any fluctuation in her tone:
"On this basis, we can first trust Zhou Qi himself to get infected with that magical power..."
"..."
The people present were stunned when they heard this, and an indescribable subtle emotion rose in their hearts.
This Su Zhiyun's behavior... suddenly made them feel as if their brains had been eaten by monsters.
And the method she said seemed... really feasible, and the logic made perfect sense!
"..."
"Then, that's it, it's time for us to take action."
Someone said this seriously to cover up the embarrassment.
Everyone present stood up one after another and prepared to leave.
Su Zhiyun also turned around calmly and walked out of the conference hall.
actually……
What she wanted to say but didn't say was that ultimately this was not a question of whether the method was effective or not.
It’s a question of whether it’s “novel” enough.
She came here today not to let the authorities adopt their own methods, nor to snatch any rights.
She just felt that based on her understanding of Zhou Qi and the information she had, the choices she made should be more unreasonable and "unrealistic" than others, and this , should be what Zhou Qi wants to see. As long as he is still on the side of mankind, he hopes that something will happen. If there are changes, he will not stand idly by...
What Su Zhiyun has to do is create variables.
This was her realization after she died once.
What if it really comes to the worst - the doomsday comes as promised, Zhou Qi stands by and watches, and everything in humankind gradually collapses...
Then we can only leave it to fate...

Hi, hi, long time no see, I'm back...
