Chapter 604: Tilan Gets Serious
Chapter 604: Tilan Gets Serious
At night, on the quiet streets, Tilan was walking on the street.
After leaving the lavish banquet hosted by the chaebols, she was going to take the hovercraft directly back to her residence, but halfway through, she changed her mind, asked others to stay away, and took a walk on the street alone.
As a city in the central star region, the night view here is very beautiful. There are many shops along the street. On the surface, they look exceptionally clean and tidy, and occasionally customers can be seen coming in and out.
However, when Tilan looked at this scene, she always felt that something was missing. She strolled on the street, thinking about the words she heard today.
'This went on for thirty years until the building was about to collapse.'
Economically speaking, this is indeed the most prosperous area in the Federation, but it also lacks a lot of life atmosphere. Because of its high cost, it has rejected countless citizens who want to settle down here. At least during the years she studied in the Central Star Region, the streets were always mostly populated by young people and middle-aged adults, and there were always very few children and elderly people.
As for the complaints from the chaebol groups, Tilan knew that they were not lying. There were indeed some sad and lamentable parts, but on the other hand, human hearts are hard to satisfy. Even these people at the top of society still think that they are not living well and are worried and anxious.
When will we be able to build a world where the vast majority of people can feel safe and secure, without having to worry and be anxious day and night?
Standing on this street with tall buildings, countless people rushing around and neon lights illuminating the night, she slowly stopped and looked up at the dim starry sky that had been obscured by light pollution.
It is easy to fulfill one person's wish, but it is almost impossible to fulfill the wishes of 90% of the people in the world.
Everyone is struggling in the vortex of fame and fortune. If you tell them not to fight over it, they will respond with a voice full of resentment and anger. Why should I give in? I also want to live a good life. Why can't I be allowed?
Yes, everyone can think of the best, step by step, leading to the endless stairs in the sky, until they are shattered.
In the past, Tilan had never had a good answer to this question, so although she felt that the current federation was not good enough, she did not show much opposition.
But today, she suddenly thought of another answer that was not an answer. Is it possible that the current situation was caused by an environment that overemphasizes the first thing and an overly poor spiritual dilemma?
Material abundance does not mean spiritual abundance. When material things are scarce, people will pursue survival. At this time, as long as they have food to eat and a warm house that does not leak, they will be happy. But when material things suddenly become abundant, they have everything they used to desire. At this time, if they do not have a firm direction, it is easy to get confused. So, following the guidance of public opinion, they blindly move towards the field of consumption comparison.
It’s like you can get happiness through various ways, such as taking a walk, watching the scenery, playing with insects, pushing sand, petting animals up close, doing handicrafts, painting, listening to music, all of which can make people feel relaxed and satisfied, but the direction of public opinion is different. They will inevitably let you enter the field of high consumption in order to make more profits. Also, because they can make money in these areas, they have more resources to create this momentum and atmosphere, so people are slowly brainwashed and domesticated.
The final result is that, although it is a boundless runway hundreds of kilometers wide, everyone is squeezed into an extremely narrow grid, running along the artificially drawn line, crowding and trampling on each other. If you escape from the runway, you will be ridiculed and bullied by those people.
Although we have clearly gotten rid of the shackles of material things, we have been greeted with greater spiritual oppression. This spiritual oppression is pervasive, seeping into our lives from every corner of the information network. Fighting against it requires tremendous energy and makes people exhausted.
What is even more frightening is that when this kind of spiritual domestication is recognized by more and more people, it really has the ability to influence material things, such as allowing you to make money and reward the other party's behavior materially, thereby making it easier to use it to attack other people.
One's own values are denied, one's own hobbies are ridiculed, and in the real world one cannot directly use physical means to resist this attack that infiltrates through information networks. As a result, anxiety, depression, and distortion begin to prevail. With the help of this emotion, new marketing channels are discovered, and another round of "drama" is staged. In the end, the operators and leaders gain the benefits, leaving only ordinary people who are exhausted, exploited, and in a state of physical and mental residue.
Unlike the traditional world, media information in the new era has really begun to intervene in all aspects of life. They are not weak and powerless, but are really influencing the world subtly. And as material wealth becomes more and more abundant, their role is becoming less and less, while spiritual satisfaction and joy are becoming more and more valuable.
From a psychological point of view, when people get rid of the anxiety of survival, they will inevitably begin to pursue dignity and spiritual realization.
How to achieve spiritual realization? In the past, people relied on religion, etiquette, folk customs, etc. to obtain spiritual satisfaction and achievement. However, after various traditional concepts were broken, this position has now been replaced by comparison and consumption, so people laugh at the poor but not at prostitutes.
But whether it is the thoughts of comparison, consumption, or profit-seeking, they are ultimately fragile and can only add icing on the cake. Once faced with the test of iron and fire, these constructed frameworks are often the first to collapse. When a person points a gun at you with blood all over his face, can you use money or say that you are wearing high-end clothes to make him surrender? The other party will not listen to these, because as long as he shoots, he can get everything you have.
Although loving one's country and family will be ridiculed, when it comes to the stage of brutal struggle and life and death, for individuals, a strong collective and country are the greatest support.
So how was such a collective state established? Was it built by greedy people? No, they can only parasitize in a large and stable orderly society, because they cannot survive without such an environment.
"In the end, they are just stealing the legacy of many predecessors and the good environment they created."
This is like borrowing money. If everyone borrows money and doesn't pay it back, then the concept of "borrowing money" will disappear. If someone asks you for money in the future, it will be equivalent to stealing and robbery, because no one will pay it back. The reason why people can still borrow money now is naturally because our predecessors established an environment of trust, and this trust is beneficial to each other, allowing a group to help each other and prosper slowly.
Such people can only pick fruit from established trees because they can never grow a tree on their own.
When there are more such termites, first all kinds of trust will slowly dissipate, then morality will continue to decline, and finally it will be an inefficient world full of suspicion and distrust. Such an inefficient world will make the country and civilization weak until they are overturned by internal or external forces.
If it is overturned from within, there may be a chance for a new beginning. However, if it is conquered from outside, the result will be even more cruel. Countless civilizations have disappeared in the yellow sands of history.
Now, these woodworms are crying to you that the tree they have been sitting on does not bear fruit, or the fruits are getting smaller and smaller. Have you ever thought that it is because you are eating too much that the tree cannot bear fruit?
They are certainly innocent in some ways, but they are by no means pitiful. Even if a few of the leaders among them have a change of heart, the general trend of the entire group is unshakable. Even if the minority leaders oppose it, they cannot change the collective. Just because you are the boss and have made enough money, you cannot stop the entire organization.
You have made enough money, but the people under you, the countless executives, middle managers, employees, etc. in the company, are looking at you and want to be as prosperous as you. And because of the deteriorating environment faced by latecomers, their methods will become more radical and unethical.
What's the point of only one or two people sincerely repenting? You have to know that at the beginning, you recruited so many people with treatment and benefits. Now you say that you regret it, and you want those who haven't earned enough money to betray the original goal like you. How is this possible?
"Ugh……"
Standing on the overpass in the city, the girl looked at the central street in front of her. Above her head were various luxurious hovercrafts coming and going, and under the overpass were all kinds of fully loaded trucks and ordinary people's vehicles.
In fairy tales, the ending is often that the villain is defeated or repents, and then everything becomes good. But the reality is that even if the villain falls, the small characters behind and beside him will grow into new villains.
As long as the environment is like this, there will be people who can't resist the temptation and walk into the Devil's City.
[So, you're just going to stand under the overpass and sigh like this?] Another girl's voice came from my mind.
"I didn't sigh, I just felt sad." Tilan replied softly in the night.
'The sadness is that many people have to be killed to complete the rebirth of the entire civilization.'
'Some people are destined to be beyond redemption. It's not that it can't be done, but saving them is unfair and hurtful to others. ''You think that giving each of them 50 hits is maintaining law and order, but in the eyes of the oppressed, this is injustice and betrayal. '
"I am really afraid of killing people, because the dead cannot be resurrected, and there is no room for regret. What if I kill the wrong person? But now I think that maybe death has its good points, because it can really physically remove the pus and dissipate the resentment, and because of this deterrent, people will become more restrained."
[My kindhearted sister, can you really do this? If not, I can be the bad guy.] Another girl's voice sounded again.
"Don't push me. You know I'm not the type to be easily emotional."
"Besides, since this matter is so important, it cannot be left to my sister." The girl shook her head.
[How do you start now? Announce to the world that you have the potential to be a color-level singer and let Orles give up the position to you?]
"Of course I won't do that. It would be too easy to be attacked. I have the potential, but the objective reality is that the current rulers only trust Orlesi, who was born in the Central Star Region. There is no need to break up with Orlesi for this and add all kinds of uncertainties and dangers to myself."
[How can you intervene now? Just rely on the military and the chaebols to slowly infiltrate? By the time you are ready, Blanche and Orles will have already fought to the death.] Themisia's voice was slightly dissatisfied.
"Seizing everything from Orles will only lead to greater chaos and civil unrest. Think about it. The Federation originally said that they only trusted Orles. Now that I join in, there will definitely be a fight between the elves and the human chaebols, which will add fuel to the disintegration of the Federation."
"The military is powerful, but it lacks righteousness. If we rely on them completely, it will cause all kinds of problems in the future. I don't want the country to be a world where we have to rely on the military to suppress people all the time."
'So now I need a grassroots force to support me, and I need to lead them to promote the new ideas.'
"I hope that the future top leaders of the country will not be those financial chaebols or a group of people who are blinded by profit. They should be people who have their own firm beliefs and understand the real environment at each stage."
'The same people will attract each other, and only with such a core can the country avoid rapid corruption.'
'Although it may be a bit of a cheat, I will make good use of this talent of the singer to pass on this belief.'
[That’s a good idea, but forget it. I’ll laugh at you when you fail. Or maybe that day, when I replace you to clean up the world, I won’t be as cautious as you.] Themisia’s voice gradually disappeared into the depths of her consciousness. It seemed that she had entered a deep sleep.
Facing the evening breeze, Tilan continued to stand on the overpass, looking at the endless stream of cars and lights in front of her. Her hair and skirt fluttered up and down in the neon lights. After a long time, she turned around and walked to the other side of the bridge.
Are these the twins? the girl wondered.
It was like an insurance policy for mutual warning and restraint. She had no doubt that if one day she was too disappointed, entangled and depressed, and could not suppress her sister in the confrontation of wills, Themisia would be resurrected in her body. What the result would be at that time would not be something she could control.
But now, let her give it a try.
The girl looked at the stairs leading down to the bridge in front of her, jumped lightly on her toes, and then her body flew over the long stairs like cotton, and landed on the ground without making any sound.
The next day, Tilan met Pulin again and talked for a long time. This time, the two of them used the singer's consciousness to communicate. No one knew what they talked about. After that, the various chaebols in the central star field began to gather around Pulin. Although they did not make a big fanfare like Orles, various phenomena and data showed that Pulin also had the strength of a moon-level singer. She began to get rid of the situation of being kidnapped by the chaebols before, and instead took more control in the increasingly chaotic situation.
Afterwards, Tilan visited Arnansha again. With the introduction of this veteran singer, she began to contact singers from various factions to understand their ideas and situations. Finally, with Tilan's mediation, Arnansha and other older generation singers agreed to relax certain restrictions and allow the use of gene editing to treat many congenital diseases and sudden stubborn symptoms.
Such a policy to a certain extent expresses the Central Parliament's concern for the sick and vulnerable groups and can appease the dissatisfaction of some groups, so it was passed without encountering much obstacles this time.
Afterwards, Shui Yanqing expressed her gratitude to Tilan, because because of this policy, many people suffering from genetic diseases could be saved, and they would no longer be held accountable by the federal government for treatment issues.
"Actually, I'm not doing this purely for the sake of it." Tilan shook her head. This was the first time she admitted that she had some selfish motives.
"Okay, stop talking." Shui Yanqing smiled and stretched out her finger, pressing it on Tilan's lips.
"You have something for me to do, right? There's no need to be so ashamed. Isn't it normal for friends to help each other? Since you helped me, I will definitely not refuse."
"I'm just a little surprised because Tilan can also take the initiative to do things like this."
"Maybe I have a premonition of crisis." The girl thought for a moment and answered.
"I want you, Yanqing, to unite those minority groups so that they won't be easily dragged into the chaos and fights that follow." The girl said her request.
"What else?" Shui Yanqing tilted her head and blinked.
"And that's all."
"Ah, that's all." Shui Yanqing felt a little unbelievable and walked around Tilan.
"Tilan is like a child who goes to the market to buy groceries for the first time. She is too generous."
"But since you don't have too many ideas now, I won't continue asking. If you need anything in the future, you can tell me and I will bring people to support you."
After temporarily dealing with the affairs of the Central Star Region, Tilan calculated how many months it would take for the Western Star Region and the Federal Central Government to clash again, and while there was still time, she returned to the Four-Leaf Crystal Star Region.
This time she might have to reveal some of her cards in order to completely control the Four-Leaf Crystal Star Domain.
She had kept a low profile in the past because she had not figured out what path to take in the future. Now that she has made up her mind and time waits for no one, she can only resort to force.
I just hope that the Governor won't make her job too difficult, otherwise it would be too exhausting to support a new Governor.
Sitting by the glass window of the superluminal aircraft, the girl with black hair and a dark blue dress slowly closed her eyes and took a nap, waiting for the moment when the plane arrived at its destination.
