Chapter 143 Psychological Advantage
What Yu Yifeng and his group didn't know was that the Green Light Civilization even associated the UFO on Mars with it! They were shocked and thought that the UFO might have been shot down by the Noah... This had a certain degree of deterrence on them.
Especially after sending this series of radio waves, the Green Light people noticed that the UFO in the Arctic region was accidentally exploded by a nuclear explosion, and there was no missile trajectory during the period, which made them even more afraid. (Their telescopes could not see the small self-destructing truck)
This civilization is really too barbaric. Even if they shot it down, they had to destroy it completely...
In this way, the new human civilization accidentally occupied the psychological advantage, and even Yifeng and his group did not understand how this advantage was established, and could only vaguely guess at a few key points.
Although the psychological advantage sounds strange, it is actually very useful.
Just like an ordinary person, when facing a strong tiger, he will subconsciously fear and escape, this is the psychological factor. He didn't even dare to provoke the tiger until he was at his wit's end, not even the slightest attempt.
Because the tiger looks stronger than him.
After being threatened again and again, this ordinary person was completely frightened, and he didn't think much about the fighting power of this tiger... He could even compromise for his own survival.
Today's Green Light Civilization is like this.
"... Since they want to stay in the solar system for a while, what tone and attitude should we use to respond to them?"
"We can't really refuse, so that they won't really fight to the death..."
Everyone was discussing, and this wonderful feeling of walking on the edge of the abyss brought them an inexplicable sense of accomplishment.
Sometimes, this sense of fear can also be addictive? This group of highly intelligent experts were extremely excited, and their ideas were endless.
"As the seemingly powerful party, should we give them a planet with a kind of alms attitude?"
"The word alms doesn't seem to be appropriate..."
"I think a Sedna star will do. With the size of Sedna star, it is enough for them to use. Moreover, it is also far away from our Mars..." said an astronomer.
Yu Yifeng took the information handed over by the scientists and touched his chin in thought.
Sedna, a planet beyond Pluto, is 76 AU from the sun at its closest point and 937 AU at its farthest point.
Its diameter is about 1,000 kilometers, and its orbital period around the sun is about 11,400 years. At present, Sedna is still about 50 years away from perihelion, and its average distance from Mars is about 85 AU.
The most important thing is that this planet is on the way of the green light civilization...
85 AU is not particularly close, as the distance between the earth and the sun is only 1 AU. The time it takes for light to propagate from Mars to Sedna is 11.76 hours, which is about half a day.
This distance is already the limit of human tolerance. After all, the strength of the new human civilization is disguised, and the confidence is limited... If it is closer, it may be discovered!
85 AU is still in a state of looking at each other from a distance. In addition, Mars also has clouds and sandstorms, which can well shield Noah, allowing Noah to continue to maintain a sense of "mystery".
Yu Yifeng nodded and decided to go to Sedna, which was their best choice.
"Aren't we the tough party? It doesn't seem appropriate to let them in so cheaply?! Maybe... we can intimidate them even more? We should strive for more benefits in this opportunity!"
Rambo spitted and completely replaced the role of "powerful civilization". He raised his fist and shouted loudly.
"We are not easy to mess with. We have to squeeze them no matter what. Yes, that's it... There is no free lunch in the world?! We have to make them bleed!"
Because of the initial victory, the young people behind were excited and followed suit. When they thought of blackmailing an alien civilization that was countless times stronger than themselves, they had a crazy and exciting pleasure.
"... We can pretend that there is a powerful civilization behind us, and we are just an ordinary fleet. If we let them in because of sympathy, we will be punished... Yes, that's it! We need to ask for benefits to make up for this punishment!"
Rambo's mind was open, and he became more and more excited as he spoke. He seemed to see the opportunity for the rise of mankind.
Many radicals actually agree with Dr. Rimbaud's point of view. Perhaps young people are fearless and can be full of confidence with a few small victories.
They know deeply that risks and benefits are always proportional. Although this move is risky, it is likely to gain more!
So, what are the benefits between civilizations? What can be traded? They racked their brains and thought frantically.
First, scarce resources. Ordinary natural elements are obviously not within the scope. Even a planet is not too expensive for an interstellar civilization.
Therefore, the scarce resources that can be traded are either artificial elements with very short radioactive periods, such as tritium, or rare substances such as fullerene and antimatter.
Second, science and technology. If two civilizations can communicate, science and technology must be traded. After all, it is impossible for a civilization to explore all technologies.
Humans have some preliminary understanding of this point. The technology tree of a civilization is like a circle. What is inside the circle is known, and what is outside the circle is unknown. The more you know, the bigger the circle will be, and the more you don't know.
Inspired by the creation of flying saucers, humans have gradually understood the breadth of this "unknown".
In addition to the technology tree that has been lit up, people can vaguely see the existence of a large number of unknown technologies as numerous as stars!
In this case, due to the different development models of each civilization, the development path of science and technology will inevitably change, or have some emphasis directions. This means that there may be unique technologies.
For example, the same fighter jets and the same engines are very different between the United States and Russia. This is the bifurcation line of science and technology.
For a civilization, perhaps the emergence of a genius scientist can greatly promote the progress of a certain technology line, allowing it to transcend its own era and become a unique technology of civilization.
For example, humans are far ahead of other technologies in the development of nuclear energy and batteries. Perhaps these two directions will become unique technologies of humans.
"Technology, we can ask for their special technologies!" Rimbaud shouted.
Yu Yifeng frowned. Although this bandit-like logic made sense, it felt a little weird. He couldn't tell what was wrong with it.
"... I think this plan is not suitable."
It was Yuriko who spoke. She still had a very calm expression: "First of all, the existence of the special technology you mentioned is a question."
"What if it doesn't exist? If we make such a request, we may make a common sense mistake and arouse the other party's suspicion..."
Yes, it is true. What special technology is just a guess by scientists. Who knows if it is true.
Yuriko saw that everyone was quiet and continued: "Secondly, they should not be like us. The population is only more than 50,000, and the entire civilization is in a spaceship. They should have a home planet. And an alien fleet that came to the solar system cannot represent the entire green light civilization..."
"How many important secrets can a fleet know?"
"For example, they are equivalent to an aircraft carrier fleet on Earth. An aircraft carrier fleet will not carry a large amount of its own cutting-edge technology and wander around, right? Even if we ask, can they come up with cutting-edge technology?"
