Three Aspects of the God-Making Plan
Chapter 148 Three Aspects of the God-Making Plan
This exchange, initiated by the leader of the Trisolaran civilization, came to nothing.
Jiang Fan found it all baffling. What business was it of the Trisolaran civilization if humans launched long-range ships? Go ahead and launch yours, you sir!
What he didn't know was that in the eyes of the Trisolaran leader, humanity was always the weak, and the weak should always be inferior to the strong. How could they possibly go further than the strong?
Isn't this a form of arrogance?
Jiang Fan turned to look at Chen Zhou and noticed that her gaze was a little strange. He coughed and asked,
"Ahem, Ms. Shen Zhou, what does your leader mean by this?"
Shen Zhou's face suddenly flushed, and a faint groan echoed in the air, leaving Jiang Fan stunned. What was wrong with her?
All that could be heard was her soft, gentle voice replying.
"I'm sorry, Mr. Jiang Fan, I don't know either."
Jiang Fan's heart was in turmoil. It was normal for the Trisolarans to be a little strange, but could they please not be so perverted?
“Ms. Shen Zhou, why don’t you go back and talk to Mr. Yuan alone first? Don’t let some trivial matters ruin the friendly exchanges between our two civilizations.”
Shen Zhou looked at Jiang Fan with deep affection, his expression clearly showing he didn't want to leave, and said softly,
"Mr. Jiang Fan, won't you even offer me a cup of tea?"
How could Xiling tolerate this?
He deftly brewed a cup of tea and placed it in front of the sunken boat.
"Please have a drink, and take care when you're done."
Jiang Fan continued,
“Ms. Chen Zhou, Xi Ling and I have other matters to discuss, so please forgive us for the inconvenience this time.”
The flush on Shen Zhou's face gradually faded, and certain impulses controlled by hormones were suppressed by reason. He stood up, curtsied, and said...
"Then we won't disturb your work any longer."
Then he looked at Tomoko.
"Tomoko, let's go."
After the two left,
Xiling immediately ordered the robot to come in and remove the chair, her face turning as red with anger.
"This is outrageous! These Trisolarans are going too far!"
Jiang Fan nodded in deep agreement.
Unexpectedly, Xiling suddenly gave him a bear hug, pulling him into her arms. Because he was sitting and she was standing, his old face was pressed against the girl's soft belly.
The sensation was like a spring breeze on the face, the fragrance of osmanthus in summer, accompanied by gentle vibrations. He heard Xiling say...
"Next time I'll definitely stand in front of you! I won't let her look at you."
Jiang Fan was stunned for more than ten seconds before raising his hands to hold Xi Ling's waist, trying to separate himself from her. However, even with a little force, the two of them did not move at all, which showed how strong Xi Ling was.
I had no choice but to gently pat her lower back twice instead.
"Alright, alright, the Trisolarans' ideas are quite different from ours. Let me go, it won't be good if someone sees us."
Xiling reluctantly let go of her hand, muttering softly.
"What's wrong?"
Jiang Fan didn't hear clearly.
"What did you say?"
Xiling replied loudly,
"nothing!"
Three-Body Guest Activity Space
As Tomoko walked along, she suddenly said something.
"Commander, you just experienced a spasm. Should we have a full examination?"
The most human-like Trisolaran, Chen Zhou, blushed upon hearing this.
"Don't talk nonsense. Delete the record. I need to speak with the leader."
Zhizi nodded, then connected with the leader.
The sunken boat has regained its composure.
"Your Majesty, it's impossible to stop humanity from launching a spaceship. Mr. Jiang Fan possesses far greater foresight than we do." The leader's ability to adjust his mindset is truly exceptional.
"I understand. What's the progress of research on the human brain? Is there a way to enable the Trisolaran civilization to achieve relatively independent thinking?"
Chen Zhou replied respectfully.
"Your Majesty, I have made a request to Mr. Jiang Fan, hoping that he can utilize Earth's technological resources to help us research this technology, but..."
"But what?"
"But Mr. Jiang Fan said that human civilization and the Trisolaran civilization only maintain friendly exchanges. Earth has already done more than enough by accepting the Trisolaran guests. It is impossible for us to be like idiots and only know how to give without giving."
The leader is shrewd enough to understand six out of seven aspects of humanity's complexities—he's completely clueless about the other one, so he asks, "What is the truth?"
"What does he mean?"
"What Mr. Jiang Fan means is that our Trisolaran civilization needs to offer equivalent bargaining chips in exchange for the help of human civilization, such as proton manufacturing technology, or research data on warp drives, or seamless material manufacturing technology."
In the past, the leader would have definitely refused outright, but now he hesitated.
Chen Zhou's eyes darted around, and he continued,
"Mr. Jiang Fan asked me to convey to you that he is willing to exchange any technology or resources from Earth for proton manufacturing technology, hoping to accelerate the frequency of technological exchanges between the two civilizations."
The leader's resolve began to waver, as he did not reject the idea but instead asked a question.
"Is he telling the truth? Any Earth technology? Including the underlying algorithms of super artificial intelligence and super gene technology?"
As can be seen.
The sunken ship nodded heavily.
"It's true, Mr. Jiang Fan can say whatever he wants."
The head of state said solemnly,
"This matter is important; I need to consider it."
Chen Zhou bowed and said,
"Looking forward to your response."
Apart from the roaming operation, no other major events occurred in the 20th year of the new calendar.
Time is extremely cheap in the face of interstellar civilizations.
A year has passed, and we have entered the 21st year of the new era.
The first phase of the roaming operation's long-range spacecraft has only just covered a distance of 0.016 light-years, but it has already left the solar system and is currently traversing the Kuiper Belt.
The Oort Cloud, the outermost structure of the solar system, stretches from its inner boundary at 0.03 light-years to its outer boundary at 3.2 light-years. It would take human warships two hundred years to cross this distance.

In front of Ding Yi is a nanoscale 3D material printer designed with the participation of the Trisolarans.
Based on Luo Ji's theory of interstellar society where one person constitutes a civilization, four main directions for technological development on Earth have been established.
Space mobility technology, material assembly technology, thought transfer technology, and information transmission technology.
Jiang Fan's plan to create a god would not have a foundation for development even if Earth entered a spacefaring civilization.
First, the technology for manufacturing microcomputers (protons) has not been acquired; second, the theory of wormholes has not been broken through; and third, no dark matter or dark planes have been discovered to date.
These three technologies correspond to the three aspects that a god must have: computing power, channels, and back-end support.
God is the embodiment of civilization. If these three aspects cannot be combined, then creating a god is a joke!
Before creating a god, focusing on increasing the survival rate of a civilization is a sound strategy.
In case of an accident, at least there's a way out.
Blue Star made breakthroughs in nanotechnology a long time ago, and the flying blade material developed by Wang Miao is still the main raw material for various engineering creations.
Nanoscale 3D material printers integrate materials technology, modeling technology, and spatial printing technology, aiming to skip the complex manufacturing process and achieve the transformation from raw materials to finished products in one step!
Shen Zhou, standing beside Jiang Fan, explained the history of this technology's development within the Trisolaran civilization.
The Trisolarans rely on this thing to quickly recover their strength to previous levels after each chaotic era.
