“What did he reply to you?”
Beijing.
At the Pan-Asian Cooperation headquarters.
They were walking in the corridor and heading towards the conference hall. Facing Secretary-General Wu Shuhua’s inquiry, Li Guangya thought for a while before replying in a casual tone.
“He didn’t answer.”
After hearing this unexpected answer, Wu Shuhua glanced at him unexpectedly.
“He didn’t answer you?”
“Yes.” Li Guangya shrugged and said with a helpless smile, “He said I should figure out the road to the future myself… Of course, he may also be interested in things outside of academics.”
Wu Shuhua was silent for a while. She then continued, “In any case, we have come to where we are today.”
“Yeah.” Li Guangya nodded emotionally. He raised his head and looked at the spacious door perched at the end of the corridor. He said, “The future will judge whether this is good or bad.”
…
On the 6th day of June, a major event happened at the Pan-Asian Cooperation.
To be precise, it was not only the Pan-Asian Cooperation but also the fate of the entire world.
Under the invitation from Beijing, hundreds of countries around the world set aside their regional alliance responsibilities and sent representatives to the Beijing-Tianjin-Hebei city group to participate in this meeting, to discuss issues related to the future destiny of mankind.
At the end of the conference, the organizer of the conference took the lead and released a joint initiative on the establishment of a new and more international community with a shared future for mankind.
The new alliance was named the Federation of Human Alliance, just like its sister organization that died a century ago.
However, the difference was that the people in the new era injected a new framework under the old foundation.
Under the guarantee of the First Fleet and the authority established by the hyperspace channel, this alliance would be more reliable than any other alliance born on this planet…
North Sea Alliance.
University of Oxford campus.
Leonard sat in the library, making final preparations for the upcoming most important speech in his life.
Sitting across from him was his old friend Professor Feren, who was also the only colleague he spoke to on this campus.
He paid the price to go against the mainstream opinions, so no one in the entire archeology department respected him, except for the one sitting in front of him.
Although there was a 30-year difference in age, they had a common language.
“Human Alliance… Pft, if you live long enough, anything can happen.” Feren’s finger lightly tapped on the holographic screen in front of him. He smiled and continued, “I still remember your father made a bet with me that the collapse of the Human Alliance was only because it was ahead of its time, and it would eventually be revived one day in the future… Now it seems that he won.”
Leonard didn’t respond. Feren suddenly thought of something and continued apologetically, “My apologies for speaking on a sore topic.”
“It’s not a sore topic. My father always taught me that people have to look forward.” Leonard continued, pushing his holographic glasses up the bridge of his nose, “My father was a great scholar, I will soon prove this.”
“I think so too, it’s just the stupidity of the public that conceals his talent.”
Feren sighed softly. As if he was reminiscing about the past, a trace of emotion appeared in his muddy pupils.
After a long pause, his index finger touched the teacup and he continued, “I still remember, thirty years ago, back then we discussed the future of human civilization… Although the discussion of this matter by two archaeologists sounded a bit funny, I felt like his insights were unlike an ordinary archaeologist’s. He was even more astute than some international relations experts.”
The pen in Leonard’s hand froze. He moved his gaze away from the holographic panel and looked at Feren.
Noticing that Leonard became interested in this topic, Feren smiled faintly and continued to speak, “In his opinion, those Chinese people have actually been planning this for a long time.”
“Planning for a long time?”
“Yeah.” Feren nodded and said with a smile, “The plan to build a community with a shared future for mankind around the world… In fact, they have already started making arrangements a century ago.
“However, even with adequate preparation, this is still an extremely difficult project. It spans many lifetimes and requires countless generations of people to work hard and painstakingly for it. This requires them to be loyal towards a common collective at all costs. It is difficult for us to do the same.”
“This is a unique opinion.” Leonard thought about it for a while and then looked at him and said, “In your opinion, how exactly did they do it?”
“It seems that you still don’t understand the ingenuity of this. What they did was not a specific thing, but a promise that is fulfilled by the collective in unconscious behavior.”
Leonard: “What promise?”
“Peace.”
Seeing that Leonard had a surprised expression on his face, Feren smiled and continued with an admiring tone, “Carefully calculated over a century. During this century, they have not launched a single foreign war, even during the most difficult 2050s. Since the eighteenth century, this has never happened before.”
War was a difficult choice, but it was an easy solution.
No method could transfer domestic disputes, crises, and errors to foreign countries faster than war.
“Haven’t you noticed? This conference did not receive much opposition.”
Feren’s index finger lightly tapped on the holographic screen. He watched the news presented in front of him and continued, “On the surface, it appears that the Pan-Asian Cooperation used the fleet and stargate to blackmail other regional alliances, but in fact, during the entire conference process, things were completed rather smoothly.
“This is quite an incredible thing, as if… The world is ready to welcome its new owner. The allies who once belonged to us are turning their backs faster than we thought.”
Seeing that Leonard didn’t speak, Feren sighed slightly and said fascinatingly, “It would be great if we could live forever… Life is so short that most of us can’t see the day our research shines. I really want to know how future generations will evaluate this history.”
Leonard teasingly said, “Perhaps you can have a child and he will witness the future for you.” He looked at his watch and continued, “In any case, my seminar is starting soon…”
Feren: “Seriously, is it really useful for us to research those bugs?”
“The usefulness is that we can learn from their decline,” Leonard said softly after turning off the holographic panel floating in front of him. He added, “So we can avoid a similar ending.”
