Chapter 124 -125 Stock Donation
This principle was quite simple to understand. Lin Xuanyuan couldn’t help but blush a bit, particularly at the phrase “snatching the most beautiful object,” which she found a bit strange.
“But few people think like this … once the Captain and the others wake up, all these bad guys will be caught.”
“Yes, very few people think like this. But we cannot rule out the possibility of some fools or psychologically deranged individuals having sudden strange ideas and wanting to be the lord over others during this special time. The Captains are still in deep sleep after all, and even if awakened urgently, it would take several days for them to recuperate, how could they manage the current situations?”
“Today’s dinner helped lessen the likelihood of such incidents occurring… In case of such accidents, everyone would spontaneously defend and resist.”
“How cold-hearted! I thought you were truly generous and hospitable, I didn’t expect it to turn into a political act,” Lin Xuanyuan pouted, not hearing the answer she expected, and laughed teasingly.
“Cold-hearted?”
Zhang Yuan smiled and said seriously, “In fact, most human actions can be explained by the word ‘interest.’ I simply turned the fact into a mathematical model and optimized it.”
Lin Xuanyuan said, “Then, how can you explain women’s emotions, doing things unexpectedly, with the word ‘interest’?”
Zhang Yuan scratched the back of his head, laughed, and did not make any excuse.
There was one thing he dared not say, the “emotional” phenomena, perhaps evolved from women needing to captivate men…
…
Zhang Yuan returned to his bedroom and wrote another crew log, detailing that afternoon’s dinner, including video footage.
He had bought so many things, which technically constituted a breach of regulations, so a rational explanation was necessary.
In the crew log, he wrote, “I suggest that in future plans, we should plant more natural herbs for seasoning and organize similar large-scale banquets regularly to regulate people’s emotional states…”
“The joy found in preparing food and manual labor…”
Of course, everything was done voluntarily.
If the banquet evolved into mere formalism, then it would be meaningless.
Later, he wrote some inspirations regarding New Civilization History in his notebook, including some understandings of personal psychology and game theory.
Especially translating some human behaviors into mathematical problems, Zhang Yuan thought of a special function that seemed to describe the overall psychology of humans, naming it the “psy” function.
This subject was truly difficult, involving history, culture, systems, and collective psychology, with no significant progress thus far.
“If I could self-learn some of this and publish a paper on it, I could graduate with a Ph.D., a … Ph.D. in Mathematics? About various properties of the psy function…”
After contemplating all this, Zhang Yuan quietly lay in bed.
It was time, the centrifuge started spinning, creating Earth-like gravity.
Once the gravity stabilized, the human body could slowly relax.
Several messages popped up in his social circle.
“A lovely dinner, pity there was no curry,” posted by John.
Zhang Yuan liked it, too lazy to reply.
“Met a guy who’s quite nice…” posted by Lin Xuanyuan.
Zhang Yuan wrote on it, “Your cooking isn’t bad either.”
The reply came quickly, “I still have some beef jerky left, want some?”
“Keep it for yourself to enjoy.”
“That’s nice!”
“I’m conceptualizing a doctoral thesis.”
“Ha ha, I’m also directly pursuing a master’s and Ph.D., just haven’t graduated yet.”
“So you’re older than me.”
“Just a few months older, let me hear you say ‘sister’.”
After casually chatting a few sentences, Zhang Yuan, embarrassed and flushed, pretended to sleep to finally make her give up on flirting further.
Zhang Yuan calmed the flames in his heart, not minding finding a girl. However, he didn’t like to haphazardly seek out relationships during moments of loneliness; everything required careful consideration.
Upon waking the next day, with the intent of writing his thesis, Zhang Yuan began reviewing research records from some scientists before him and tried to incorporate his newly invented “psy” function.
The currently best civilizational model was formulated in the mode of complex networks.

In this model, the expected outcome for human civilization was tragically mediocre, thus John had such confidence in being a pessimist.
Zhang Yuan truly hoped that this result was incorrect.
“After all, a model is just a model and can’t represent the actual reality.”
During these thoughts, he recalled a conversation he once had with Senior Brother Zhao, “According to calculations, Earth Civilization has the capability to launch a maximum of two Deep Space Colony Ships.”
The first has already been launched, fulfilling the prophecy.
The probability of launching the second was over sixty percent.
Now, 183 years had passed, and the second ship had not yet appeared…
There were many reasons, including economic and political.
But ultimately, it had not been successfully launched, with not even a plan in existence, making Zhang Yuan somewhat anxious.
He then wrote another letter to the Deep Space Foundation back on Earth.
