#903 - Chapter 903 Wormhole Map
Over the past 20 years, stimulated by a series of policies, the population of Blue Star has exploded.
The total population has surged from the original 620 million to the current 2 billion.
However, gradually, new problems have emerged.
The older generation of survivors, having experienced more than a decade of doomsday, have deeply reflected on survival, crisis, and self-worth. Therefore, the new life is beautiful and happy for them.
They cherish everything they have now and are full of longing for the future.
But the new generation is completely different.
From the moment they were born, they have enjoyed superior medical conditions and a comfortable living environment.
Therefore, for them, everything they see before them seems to be as it should be.
They lack a sense of crisis for survival and lack reflection on their self-worth. Their thinking is already showing signs of moving towards nihilism.
The early batches of the new generation are now approaching 30 years old, but basically have no life goals or thoughts about the future.
For them, the future is infinite, so why bother about these one or two days?
Short-term, immediate pleasure has turned them into giant infants parasitic on society.
This is inevitable.
This is the nature of biological evolution, and also the reason why all species and societies inevitably head towards decline.
In order to solve this problem, the Asian Union and China jointly conducted five rounds of consultations and formulated a series of plans:
Firstly: The Asian Union and the Chinese Parliament will jointly form and restart the Blue Star Federal Parliament, which has been suspended for nearly 40 years. Since Dongfang Chen Er is unwilling to take over as Speaker of the Federal Parliament, the position will be left vacant.
That is to say, Dongfang Chen, who has been missing for nearly 40 years, was forcibly pushed to the position of Speaker in absentia.
Whether he manages affairs or not, the position is there anyway.
Secondly: In the name of the Blue Star Federation, a number of restrictive measures will be issued to ensure the normal development and evolution of human society.
Restrictive Measure 1: All Blue Star Federation citizens (hereinafter referred to as citizens) who are 18 years of age or older, regardless of gender, must perform military service. Those who refuse to perform military service will be deprived of their right to free medical care.
Restrictive Measure 2: All citizens must complete at least a Level 2 vocational qualification certification in one subject before the age of 100.
What is a vocational qualification?
It means that each citizen can choose at least one subject area based on their personal interests, career direction, spiritual pursuits, and other factors, complete the designated learning tasks, and obtain the corresponding qualification.
Level 2 is entry-level, but anyone who puts in a little effort can pass the exam.
Restrictive Measure 3: All citizens must get married before the age of 30, and complete the birth of a newborn at each of the three time nodes of 60, 90, and 120 years old.
… …
Each restrictive measure has varying degrees of restrictive penalties.
In a word, as a citizen of the Blue Star Federation, if you do not contribute to the Federation and do not fulfill your civic obligations, then you shall not enjoy civic rights.
This is what Niu Xingwang once said, if there is no crisis, then artificially create a crisis.
Otherwise, society will inevitably evolve towards nihilism.
As soon as these measures were announced, everyone panicked.
Some people are actually fifty or sixty, or even seventy or eighty years old. Although they have the physique of an 18-year-old after gene repair, it is indeed difficult to complete the restrictive tasks in such a short period of time.
To this end, the Federal Parliament has also introduced special measures to extend the time limit for citizens of different age groups to varying degrees.
For citizens, it is okay to restrict other things, but once free medical care is restricted, it is fatal.
If they do not undergo gene repair, they will gradually age. At most, in twenty or thirty years, they will be old and unrecognizable.
Who can stand this?
Therefore, the enthusiasm of the entire society has been mobilized all at once.
March 23, Blue Star Calendar 2099.
The Blueberry Chamber of Commerce has opened the wormhole map to the Blue Star Federation.
The so-called wormhole map is a star map synthesized based on the galaxy anchor points expanded by Nata over the past 30 years.
Over the past 30 years, Nata has anchored a total of 1,123 galaxies, all located on the Orion Arm of the Milky Way, accounting for about one-half of the total number of galaxies in that arm.
Such an anchoring speed is really too slow.
To speed up the anchoring of wormholes, more people need to join in.
Since there are 2 billion people on Blue Star with nothing to do, it is better to send them out to work.
It was precisely out of this consideration that Nata authorized the Blueberry Chamber of Commerce to open the wormhole map.
With the wormhole map, the Blue Star Federation can use the existing wormhole network to continuously expand outwards, constantly expanding the area that humans can reach.
For such a large project, let alone 2 billion people on Blue Star, even 200 billion people would not be enough.
