325: Chapter 324 The Fourth Layer of Future Technology! Quantum Cloud Computing, Brain-Computer Interconnection, Virtual Reality World!

After overturning all his previous deductions, Lin Mo found himself with even more unanswered questions.

Setting aside the facts for a moment, he assumed that the Sophon had indeed arrived on Earth, but was simply unable to communicate with him.

What baffled Lin Mo was why the Trisolaran Civilization, despite having technology that completely crushed Earth's, had been so easily intimidated by his strategic bluff.

Was it because of the Luan-niao Aerospace Mothership?

Please!

The Trisolarans could build fleets that spanned the stars; would they really be scared by a Luan-niao Aerospace Mothership?

That would be too pathetic!

After thinking until dawn, Lin Mo finally decided to stop overthinking for now.

There is a way around every mountain.

Regarding the Trisolaran Civilization, Lin Mo felt absolutely no fear, only curiosity. He even thought about capturing some Trisolarans in the future to see what they looked like.

Fear stems from the unknown; confidence stems from strength.

Regarding the Trisolaran Civilization in this parallel universe, Lin Mo knew absolutely nothing.

Whether their technological level was stronger or weaker, or whether they had been plotting on Earth for years, Lin Mo didn't know and didn't care.

Because he was very clear that the system cheat in his head, which he couldn't turn off even if he wanted to, clearly possessed future technology capable of absolutely crushing the Trisolaran Civilization!

Especially after the system completed its third upgrade, various inconceivable Huaxia Future technologies were officially unlocked, giving Lin Mo ample confidence and assurance!

Opening the system interface and reviewing the reward notifications that spanned several pages, along with the newly unlocked function "Daluo Star Chart," the corners of Lin Mo's mouth curled upward.

Looking at these inconceivable future technologies, a sense of confidence that only a cheater should have welled up in Lin Mo's heart!

Trisolarans?

Just specimens!

Great joy often leads to sorrow.

Before he could be happy for long, Lin Mo quickly thought of something extremely frustrating, and his whole face turned into a bitter melon.

These hundreds of millions of cutting-edge technologies had to be replicated before others could participate!

With so many supporting sub-technologies, not to mention how to arrange, deploy, and follow up, just replicating them from his brain would take at least three years, even without sleeping or eating!

Thinking about spending the next three years frantically typing in a dark laboratory, Lin Mo was on the verge of tears.

My heart is truly bitter!

Just then, the clever but not peak-smart Lin Mo had a flash of inspiration.

"Brain-computer interfacing..."

"Yes, brain-computer interfacing!"

Lin Mo slapped his forehead and cursed under his breath,

"First, implement quantum chips, quantum computers, and brain-computer interfacing!"

"Build a virtual reality network, then use brainwaves to transmit memories!"

"Wouldn't it be faster to replicate the technology then?"

"I'm such an idiot!"

Thinking of this, Lin Mo's face was filled with excitement.

"Building a virtual reality network!"

"It is indeed a major priority for Huaxia right now!"

"As the first fourth-tier technology to be implemented, the timing is just right!"

Before this, a social issue had plagued Lin Mo for a long time.

With the "reform benefits" of the infinite energy era and the "everyone is like a dragon" social effect after the full coverage of the Azure Dragon Supplement, plus the all-people armor policy currently being vigorously promoted by Huaxia, and unmanned intelligent machines replacing manual labor, etc.

In at most two years, the entire social productivity of Huaxia would be greatly liberated.

No,

it should be described as exponentially liberated!

By then, the old labor production distribution relations and their structures would soon be completely deconstructed, and the vast majority of Huaxia people would be facing a state of having no work to do.

Regarding this, the vast majority of Huaxia's top leadership not only held the most optimistic attitude but were even excited about it.

Material wealth is extremely abundant, consumer goods are distributed according to need, and social production completely exceeds all needs.

Isn't this the typical final stage of socialism?

People never have to obey the social division of labor like slaves to make a living again; participating in work is just an option to enrich daily life!

This utopian social form was exactly what countless Huaxia leaders had dreamed of in the past, and now, the future has arrived!

While many leaders remained optimistic, Chief Designer Bai Yannian, who was in charge of national public security, held a highly pessimistic attitude.

Abundant material wealth does not mean rich spirit.

If everyone became a free person without a good carrier to enrich their spiritual world, it was hard to say what the crime rate would become...

At that time, Chief Designer Bai Yannian had told Lin Mo about this concern, hoping for a solution.

Lin Mo thought for a long time but could only give an evasive answer: "Interstellar colonization."

Lin Mo himself knew that if anyone committed a crime and was thrown into the pioneer fleet to serve a sentence, it wouldn't solve the root of the problem.

But helplessly, there was really no other better way at the moment, so he had to leave this problem for later and cross the river by feeling the stones.

But now, Lin Mo finally had a perfect answer!

"Build a virtual reality world!"

"Let everyone socialize, entertain, and play games in it with the exact same physical sensations as the real world,"

"Wouldn't the spiritual world of the Huaxia people be enriched?"

Lin Mo became more excited as he thought about it.

"Gather all those game companies!"

"Develop virtual reality open-world games together!"

"Genshin World, League World, Honor World, Honkai World, PUBG World, Warcraft World, Sports World..."

"It used to be anti-addiction, now it's mandatory addiction!"

"I don't believe it!"

"With so many ways to entertain, I won't be able to obsess you!"

Following this train of thought, Lin Mo thought of more and more.

Building a virtual reality world was, of course, not to let the hundreds of millions of people in the whole country indulge in play and lose their ambition; that would be too stupid...

A simulation world with almost no difference in environmental authenticity from the real world, a simulation world where sensory systems such as hearing, vision, touch, taste, and smell are almost identical to reality, its function is by no means just to provide entertainment.

For example, in education, users can build vivid and realistic learning environments, experimental environments, and research environments in the virtual reality world, allowing students to learn immersively, which can both deepen memory and greatly stimulate interest in learning.

In design, through the real physical engine of the virtual world, users can simulate their own inspiration and ideas, intuitively foresee the actual effects, and this will inevitably greatly promote intelligent manufacturing innovation.

In the military, it is even more critical.

Users can not only improve their familiarity with various weapons and equipment and their combat level through simulated flight, simulated shooting, and simulated exercises, but also command unmanned combat weapons and equipment to participate in interstellar combat via remote control.

The best among them can even remotely control an entire interstellar fleet for combat by one person.

All these are just a part of the application of virtual reality, and there are many, many others.

At the same time, the virtual reality network has another major advantage: it can achieve instant communication across space!

Because building a virtual reality network will use quantum communication technology, and the biggest feature of quantum communication is ignoring spatial distance.

Unless affected by the space-time distortion of certain special regions (such as black holes), even if it spans several star systems, the Huaxia people on Earth can be close to each other, and communicate instantly with the Huaxia Expeditionary Force hundreds of light-years away through the virtual reality network.

It can be said that the future life trend of Huaxia civilization will inevitably switch constantly between virtual and reality, and the virtual reality network will become an indispensable part of people's lives, without exception.

Having figured out every aspect, Lin Mo felt more and more that he was a genius.

Without delay, he immediately got up, went to his dedicated computer in the lounge, and quickly entered the information related to quantum technology.

At the same time, Lin Mo was also calculating in his heart.

"Three years is too long, one year is probably impossible."

"Let's just do a 'two-year, three-step plan'!"

Step 1: Organize and concentrate Huaxia's chip experts and hardware experts to develop quantum chips as soon as possible, develop Huaxia's first quantum supercomputer and achieve initial mass production, and realize brain-computer interface technology.

Step 2: Organize and concentrate top engineers from major computer companies to build virtual reality hardware servers based on quantum computers, create programming languages based on quantum cloud computing and develop virtual reality engine development platforms, and build basic protocols, open interfaces, and world frameworks for the virtual reality network, etc.

Step 3: Organize major game companies to design games based on the virtual reality engine, build virtual reality open game worlds with interconnected interfaces in modules, and unify them into the world framework of the virtual reality network...

"It's best to be before the end of next year!"

"Complete the construction of the virtual reality network!"

"At that time, load the brain-computer interface into the helmet of the Kunlun Armor and implement it together with the all-people armor policy!"

Lin Mo had also thought it through.

Since this two-year, three-step plan is implemented in sync with the all-people armor policy, the focus should still be on entertainment.

The main purpose is, of course, to solve the livelihood problems during the industrial automation period and achieve a smooth transition between the old and new social structures.

Secondly, it is also to promote the purchase of civilian armor by Huaxia people and let the all-people armor technology truly land.

A few years later, when they, the Huaxia decision-makers, have thoroughly figured out the job positions that require human input in the interstellar era, they will then link the real currency system with the virtual network currency system, and the common people will naturally devote themselves to new lines of work for higher-level spiritual needs.

It won't be too late to update and iterate the virtual reality network then, and add various different practical functions.

What?

You say you don't want money, you just don't want to work, you just want to lie flat?

That's simple, if you don't want to do it, then don't!

The things that drive the continuous progress of Huaxia civilization can just be done by him, Lin Mo, leading a group of scientists.

The Shennong Project, led by Old Master Yuan, has not only researched hybrid rice with genes that grow over four meters tall and yield ten thousand catties per mu, but also broke through the fully enclosed automated space planting unit technology.

Can't it support tens of millions of Huaxia salted fish?
