Unified allocation of resources, unified arrangement of work. Complete elimination of hunger was achieved in the first month."Gray Rain suddenly realized, "Isnât this â1984â?"
"Huh? You actually know â1984â?"
Li Cheng was also startled, "George Orwellâs dystopian work â1984â aimed to satirize the UKâs extensive control over the populace, but the is far superior to the Big Brother in the book.
No longer needing to rely on market feedback to allocate resources, it uses thousands of different functional big data models to predict global demand changes months or even years in advance.
For example, reducing the production of white shirts in summer and increasing floral shirt production.
Building a large number of hotels in a certain city in advance to accommodate the surge of tourists during the travel season.
Intervening in uncompetitive factories, phasing out outdated production lines, and introducing advanced production lines.
Due to comprehensive information collection, it can even predict on an individual basis, such as recommending early educational tutoring for children with musical or mathematical talents.
Under its governance, there is no soil for corruption, crime, exploitation, or oppression.
Each flow of credit points is traceable, making corruption impossible to hide;
All criminal acts are exposed under surveillance cameras, even spontaneous acts of passion murder, the knife hasnât fallen yet, a high-energy ray from near orbit precisely hits the suspectâs scapula;
As for exploitation and oppression, the owns all production materials, making it impossible for big capitalists to gain excess profit through hired labor.
Scientists, artists, engineers, and other groups naturally receive more credit points, but compared to ordinary people, not excessively more."
"Hmm... it actually sounds alright,"
Gray Rain scratched his head and said, "If put in our world, a lot of people might be willing to be managed by this and then lie flat happily."
"Indeed."
Li Cheng nodded and said, "Due to highly developed productivity, even completely lying flat, only receiving the minimum credit points, all basic needs are met.
But not everyone is grateful for this.
The resistance organization has raised the flag of ârejecting captivity,â some among them believe the captivity system would bury human civilizationâs drive, and deprive the potential of human civilization, hence must be resisted;
Some are religious believers, who argue AI is not worthy to be called a god;
Some are simply relics of the old era, unwilling to see their wealth and status disappear.
These people formed underground resistance organizations, plotting to kill the God of Mankind."
"This... seems quite hard to resist?"
Gray Rain thought for a moment, "The God of Mankind controls the global surveillance system and orbit-based weapons.
The resistance organization is hardly equipped to fight satellites."
"Yet, they actually succeeded."
Li Cheng shook his head and said, "That entered the script task in a fully immersive mode, not involving supernatural powers.
Upon leaving, he arrogantly broadcasted his existence to the whole world, even actively inviting humanity to resist the God of Mankindâs rule,
showing a keen interest in human civilization breaking the cradle he designed.
The resistance organization seized the opportunity, enduring hardships, using no electronic devices, reverting to carrier pigeon communication,
utilizing the fact that high-energy lasers are weakened by mediums, simultaneously raiding data center servers soaked in seawater worldwide, successfully causing a brief stall of the God of Mankind.
Taking advantage of the stall, they launched all operable rockets and missiles, destroying orbit-based weapons flying around Earth.
At the expense of Earthâs orbit being filled with space debris, sealing the God of Mankind."
"Ah?"
Gray Rain widened her eyes, knowing the dangers of space debris through space opera and short video marketing content, "That would mean rockets cannot be launched."
"Can still launch, just need to wait many years, waiting for the space debris from low, medium, and high orbits to fall back into the atmosphere and burn out."
Li Cheng said, "The sudden disconnection of the directly led to total loss of control of its managed unmanned factories and unmanned mechanics, including ocean regulation devices built regardless of cost.
Although the resistance organization quickly repaired servers, stopping unmanned factories, Earthâs climate was still badly affected, leading to incessant acid rain.
Meanwhile, the brief rule of the sowed seeds against exploitation.
Even the newly established United Government has to continue using many of the âlegacies,â including credit point systems and global interconnected automation systems.
Corresponding to Che Guevaraâs words âBecause we have been hereâ.
Li Cheng paused and commented, "From the perspective of ordinary people on this planet, that Li Risheng was indeed too arrogant and proud.
Using the world as a chessboard, people as chess pieces, overshadowing the desires of billions with his own interests,
single-handedly crafting a cradle for human civilization,
arrogant beyond measure."
"... Why do I detect a sense of bitterness in your tone."
Gray Rain smacked her lips, "Also, if we talk about intent of altering the script worldâs path, Lao Cheng, youâve done plenty, right?
Whether itâs the previous mining craze in the Cultivation World or the Frog God recreating Great Ming, both severely changed world paths.
These are also using the world as a chessboard, people as chess pieces."
"How can that be the same?!"
Li Cheng immediately corrected, "Thatâs called going with the flow. Following the development trends of things, effectively guiding and promoting.
It is different from the arrogant behavior of forced captivity of all humanity."
He continued, "In any case, the United Government took over the âwealthâ left by the God of Mankind,
due to the absence of a financial system, Earthâs environment has sharply deteriorated, space exploration is impossible,
the United Government straightforwardly fully supported Skytop Company, developing the home project, guiding global residents to stay in concrete jungle cities, indulging in video games.
Also, because the home project uses the no-delay real-time communication framework of the God of Mankind,
all temporarily offline users have the ID of the God of Mankind floating on their foreheads, observable only by Killing Field Players. Just like what I saw in the submarine."
"Itâs been over twenty years since the United Governmentâs successful resistance, and you can still see the name of the God of Mankind..."
Gray Rain thought for a moment, surprised, "Doesnât this mean the influence of that Li Risheng still exists, and the God of Mankind still lives in some form?"
"Yes, thatâs the crux of the problem."
Li Cheng frowned slightly, pondered, "Many areas of the killing field entity do not follow linear time flow. Itâs impossible to ascertain when that Li Risheng entered the script world.
I havenât found this ID in the databases of major guilds either.
Thus, there are two possibilities, one, he is from the future of our world line.
Two, he is from another parallel universe."
Li Cheng said while taking out a piece of titanium alloy steel plate and engraving it with diamonds.
"?" Gray Rain blinked in confusion.
"When I die, or when I return to the killing field, I will hand this titanium alloy steel plate to Truth Side bro, concocting any reason, prohibiting future players from taking ID as ."
Li Cheng pondered and said, "According to causality paradox, the titanium alloy steel plate already exists, hence Li Risheng wonât be from the future of our world line.
This indirectly verifies, he indeed comes from another parallel universe.
Which is troubling."
In a parallel universe, anything can happen, the opponent may be Level 20, Level 30, Level 40 or even higherâthe future version of the killing field will increase the level cap.
As for the left in the script world by the opponent, it might have secretly developed for twenty or thirty years, who knows what it will grow into.
Gray Rain proposed, "Since the United Government rose by resisting the God of Mankind, the enemyâs enemy is a friend. Why donât we directly express our intentions to the United Government and ask them to stop hunting us."
"The United Government may stop hunting, but itâs very unlikely that the United Government wonât hunt."
Li Cheng pursed his lips and said, "Not to mention whether theyâd believe us,
even if we claim not knowing that Li Risheng, the United Government nearly permanently captive, might instantly trigger PTSD,
compromising everything to shut down the home game servers, going for all-out destruction.
If Iâm not mistaken, they should now be planning how to concentrate forces against us."
He raised his coffee cup, gestured towards the gothic decor player screaming at a tablet computer from a window-side seat.
The tablet computer was playing a live broadcast of the professional teamâs competition.
