With the gradual development of technology, the scale of the 13 cities has become larger and larger, and the population has reached tens of millions. With the increase in the population, if management cannot keep up, it will inevitably cause chaos among cities. Otherwise, the crime rate will become higher and higher, and the productivity of the unit population will decrease.

In this case, there must be a new management method.

With the efforts of scientific researchers, the information age represented by the Internet has finally come late.

The emergence of Internet technology has brought about new entertainment methods, social methods and management methods, and the distance between individuals has begun to quickly narrow. With information technology, even cities with a population of tens of millions will become easier to manage.

Coupled with the signing of the written-out treaty and the realization of overall peace, it means that cities do not need to remain hostile as before.

More social needs have also been generated between cities.

However, through traditional surface access, it is neither safe nor convenient.

Therefore, after a global conference, the leaders of 13 major cities decided to dig out a large global tunnel deep underground to connect it into a global transportation network to promote business and population exchanges!

When talking about this period of history, Gan Yaduo seemed excited and regretful.

"Under this situation, the whole world, the only democratic system, Goertek, ushered in the greatest opportunity in history!"

"Output of ideology!"

...

On an eternal dusk day, there was a violent wind blew outside.

And a global underground transportation plan that lasted for 662 years is being implemented at a depth of 80 meters underground.

The entire narrow and long underground passage connects 13 major cities and 24 secondary cities. It can not only be used to place communication cables, but also to install rail trains as a means of transportation between cities. With these means of transportation, trade between cities will undoubtedly be smoother and you will no longer have to pass through the surface to withstand dangerous typhoons.

When Goer City opened up the last key node, suddenly, the entire construction team cheered.

"It's connected!"

"It's connected!"

The workers from different cities all hugged each other excitedly. The narrow tunnels had condensed the sweat of the Glitzers.

Now, it's finally done!

"Praise technology!"

"praise!"

Every Glitzer person knows very well what this mega-project means. Without technological advancement and various excavation tools, it is impossible for them to complete such mega-projects under the ground.

On the same day, with a cup of wine and acclaim, senior leaders of Goer City held a grand celebration banquet to celebrate the implementation of this project.

He even called remote communication videos on the spot to contact people from other cities. In the past, he could only send telegrams, which was complicated and troublesome, but now it is different. The city will be able to communicate extremely simply.

After the celebration ceremony, these senior officials held another internal meeting.

A scientist in charge of a large-scale communications project, Atiya, suddenly came up with a very strange idea. This idea made him excitedly feel hot and furious.

In an internal meeting, it said: "...Ladies and gentlemen, the next era will inevitably belong to the era of information, and we have also determined the direction of development in this regard. A small tunnel and a small cable can change our lives in all directions and let us contact a larger world!"

"And the competition among cities will inevitably be even more intense!"

"To give a specific example, if a certain product enters the other party's city first and seizes the other party's market, the other party's people will continue to use it after using it. This strategy of seizing the market will make our city richer."

The members of the parliament below whispered to each other, and the clever Mr. Athya was right.

The opening of an underground tunnel will inevitably mean a lot of commercial transactions.

As the pioneer of the information age, Athya itself has a very high prestige. It is an amazing achievement to interpret certain information in a universal factory at the fastest speed and convert it into available industries.

The CEO nodded and agreed: "Yes, in this era, although a total peace agreement has been reached, the competition between cities is extremely fierce. All cities are crazily exploring the potential of universal factories and trying to put their competitors under their feet. This is impossible only we want to get..."

Many Glitzers quickly formulated a series of strategies that needed to be developed, including the development of various commodities, especially social software.

Social software is essentially a certain monopoly nature. After everyone uses one, they basically won’t use the second one or the third one.

Athya said loudly: "No, no, no, everyone, the monopoly of commodities is only one aspect, which allows us to gain wealth."

"Can we... do something else for this?"

The members of the parliament, who were discussing heatedly, looked up. What exactly did it want to express?

Looking at the confused people, Atiya asked, "I want to ask, have the rest of you been to other cities?"

Even though the underground tunnel has been opened, there are still some subsequent work that needs to be carried out, and the rail train has not been officially opened. Of course, everyone here is in high positions, not like ordinary people. Many people have been to other cities.

The CEO suddenly said: "The world outside is indeed very different from our cities."

"The leaders of those cities are governed for life, and they can also raise their children and let them inherit this ruling power. Regardless of whether the child's moral character is noble or his ability is excellent, he can still gain supreme power..."

"So, everyone, in this technology competition, our Goer City will definitely be in the lead and will always be ahead!!"

Everyone knows all these things, and they all smiled confidently. Glitzers who have been to cities outside all feel superior to their own city of Goertek, which is a kind of institutional confidence.

Scientist Athya agreed: "Yes, the world outside is completely dictatorial! I have been fortunate to visit the city of Nifang and Agala next door... Living in such a city, even the air seems to be a little cloudy. A stupid and selfish leader can still be a leader, unlike us, who can integrate the wisdom of a group of people."

"This dictatorship is a corrupt and dark system after all, suppressing the nature and creativity of the people."

"And democratic system is bright and free..."

"Can we take the opportunity to do something? It is not only a monopoly on commodity, but also a monopoly on ideas."

In fact, Goer City is not the kind of harmony on the surface, with various dark sides, but various forces are constrained by each other, and citizens also have certain political power. At least on the surface, it is much better than the outside world.

"Atya, what good will you do?" asked the then consul.

Athya's eyes shone: "...The emergence of the Internet has brought the whole world closer and made it easier to obtain information. We just need to promote the freedom and beauty of our city, so that the Glitze people who yearn for freedom all over the world know that there is such a paradise!"

It became louder and more fanatical as it spoke, “…let them understand that every citizen should have his own power, not let others overtake his own heads!”

"In this way, we can loosen the political foundation of dictators and disintegrate their power! In this way, we even have the possibility of unifying the world!"

In theory, this kind of ideology's external output does have the possibility of major changes in the world!

Unfortunately, after the fanatical Athya made his generous speech, he suddenly realized that the MP sitting below showed a cold and indifferent smile.

The entire conference room suddenly fell silent.

"My Excellency Athya, I seriously doubt whether you are a spy sent by the enemy city!" A political enemy said sarcastically: "Your plan is indeed very interesting, but where does the security of Goer City be placed?"

"Don't think that the leaders of other cities are fools!"

The original 13 cities were all in power, and even if Goertek was a little different, it would be fine. Each city had a universal factory, and as long as the technology gap was not very different, no one could do anything to anyone.

But now it’s different. If Goertek makes “ideological output” to the outside world, it will become the target of public criticism!

There are 12 enemies. No matter how brave Goer City is and how many talents there are, it is impossible to be enemies of the whole world.

"If 12 enemies unite, Goer City will be finished."

Therefore, the consuls in the city have great differences over this plan to export ideology.

"His Excellency Athya, if the systems of other cities have also been changed to democratic institutions and are as advanced as us, how can our city of Goer stand out in the competition?" an MP attacked.

Athya was shocked, “Do we not even have this confidence?”

"It's not that there is no such confidence... If the other party continues to be corrupt, the competition we will undoubtedly suffer will be smaller."

"What does the outside world have to do with us? It's done, there's no benefit...at least it's not a big benefit."

"If it doesn't work, there will be nothing."

“It’s too dangerous.”

Atya argued with reason and shivered all over: "Why didn't there? We can attract a large number of talents in this plan, but it doesn't matter if the talent advantage is better?"

It suddenly realized that its city was not as enlightened and advanced as it imagined.

"As long as we vigorously develop tourism and improve cultural facilities, we can spontaneously promote our ideological propaganda to the outside world. If we miss such a good opportunity, when will we wait for the next opportunity?"

Which Glitzer people who can get into those positions and have power is not a real old fry?

They cannot change their will because of Athya's few words.

Talent?

Save civilization?

What kind of interstellar jokes are you going to be able to save civilization?

Is it important to have your own life?

So after the meeting, the plan was not passed, at least it was not carried out in big gongs and drums.

The angry Athya did not give up and tried to achieve his goals through his influence. After all, he was a great scientist and had his own connections.

"What did you give you the illusion that our civilization needs to be saved?" asked an old Glitzer man. He was once the consul of Goer City, and even though he had retired, he still maintained strong connections.

"I always feel something is wrong, really! Now there are dark clouds outside, and all kinds of dictatorial stench has lasted for too long, so we really don't need to do anything for this?"

The consul touched his ear, "Atya, I had this idea when I was young. Going to the city outside will feel unfair for them."

"But you have to know that the times will always improve, and history is a spiral upward. We should not do anything deliberately. Those who are at the forefront of history will never have any good results."

Athya questioned: “If no one does it, how could history change?”

"From the short-term perspective, society is sometimes good and sometimes bad, and even worse, retreating from the peaceful world to the troubled times; but from the perspective of big history, it is getting better and better. The rise and fall of local periods is uncertain, and the decline of a certain stage will not stop, which will not affect its overall rise. The historical bend is the greatest, and it cannot change the great historical process of rising from the chaotic world to the peaceful world, and then rising to the peaceful world..."

Athya turned his head in disappointment. The old man is old and no longer has the ambitions he used to be. He is unwilling to cause trouble at such moments and just wants to spend his old age.

No one can prove the so-called spiral history theory whether it is correct or wrong.

Especially, if everyone escapes so much, how could history rise?

This precious strategic period began to slip away quietly in a hesitation...

Time passed year after year.

The cables are laid...
