The mind is stronger than things, transcending the ordinary and becoming holy

Chapter 14 014. World giants

Finally, Chen Shibo shook hands with Liang Huang's family and exchanged contact information, ensuring that they could be contacted at any time, and then let the three of them leave.

Time flew by.

Three days later.

The dean and several doctors gathered around Chen Shibo and gave Chen Shibo a final physical examination.

After confirming that Chen Shibo had completely recovered, the dean said with a happy face, "Mr. Chen, your injury is almost healed. You can be discharged from the hospital today if you want."

"knew."

Chen Zhongshan nodded, "Dean Zhou has to worry about me these days."

"It should, it should!"

Dean Zhou rubbed his hands, smiled humbly, and kept his posture very low.

After some pleasantries, Chen Shibo left the hospital surrounded by two bodyguards, and was escorted by the director to the aerial vehicle that he had been waiting for for a long time.

Floating vehicles are the main means of transportation in this era, but they no longer use gasoline energy, but clean electric energy. The full name is "electromagnetic superconducting floating floating vehicle".

Since the discovery of superconductors at room temperature and pressure two hundred years ago, humankind's industrial system has ushered in a huge innovation, and then the controlled nuclear fusion and quantum computer technology trees that were lit directly opened the fifth industrial revolution.

Today's floating car is a civilian vehicle that combines flight and orbital navigation. It is shaped like a bullet. When sailing, it will be connected to the urban aerial ring rail and drive to every corner of the city on the ring rail that extends in all directions. .

When it reaches its destination, the vehicle will detach from the ring rail and start the lift fan at the bottom to land smoothly.

This kind of lift fan is somewhat like the vertical take-off and landing fighter aircraft of the past, except that it does not have blades, and in some areas without ring rails, aerostats can also fly at low altitudes with lift fans.

At this time, Chen Shibo looked at the city skyline slowly retreating behind him through the virtual car window, feeling a little reluctant.

For the past three days, he has been living in the hospital, collecting the emotional fluctuations emitted by thousands of people every day. At the same time, people are constantly dying and being absorbed into the imaginary space. At this time, there are already four residents in the imaginary space.

Although it is temporarily impossible to communicate with those souls, these souls can have brief exchanges with each other. However, after listening to their conversations, they found that although these souls are not much different from their previous images, their consciousness seems to be sleepwalking.

To put it simply, all souls seem to be in a state of confusion, unable to distinguish where they come from, what they want to do, and who they are.

It's as if...their souls aren't strong enough.

However, there are gains. In the past three days, Chen Shibo has accumulated emotions the size of a rubber ball, which is about one-fortieth of the previous emotion ball.

You must know that the imaginary number space has entangled the Chen family for more than ten generations. For hundreds of years, they could only accumulate an emotion ball with a diameter of half a meter. But now, in just three days, they have accumulated one-fortieth of it.

This is because some of the emotions are converted into spiritual energy and absorbed by the newly born soul.

In other words, if he stayed in a densely populated environment like a hospital, he would be able to accumulate hundreds of years of emotions in just four months.

These emotions can be used to continue to expand the imaginary space to include more of the population.

Just like a snowball, your imaginary number space can become larger and larger, and the expansion speed will become faster and faster...

Although he has not yet figured out the role of imaginary number space, his instinct tells him that the bigger the imaginary number space, the better.

With this kind of thinking, the floating vehicle has arrived at the edge of the city and arrived at an entry and exit checkpoint.

This kind of checkpoint is the dividing line between the inner city and the outer city. It surrounds the entire Wujiang City and blocks the flow of illegal professions such as mercenaries and gangs into the city. It also strictly prohibits the flow of thermal weapons.

If there is no proof of entry into the city, it will be difficult for people from the outer city to enter the city.

After leaving the checkpoint, the hover car connected to the faster high-speed ring track and flew to the capital of Tianji Province.

Skyrim City.

The ancestral land of the Chen family is located in Tianji City, which is also Chen Shibo's original home. He was sent here by the family after he became an adult, and his life of guarding the family's meager property is equivalent to exile.

At this time, due to Chen Shibo's father's request, he wanted to return to Tianji City to meet his father in this body.

The self-driving floating car travels on a high-speed track connecting two cities. This track is equivalent to a highway. The floating car driving on this ring track can travel at close to the speed of sound without any obstacles.

It is more than 200 kilometers from Wujiang City to Tianji City and only takes ten minutes to arrive.

At this time, Chen Shibo took a bottle of carbonated drink from Zheng Xiancun. This bottle of drink was taken out of the car refrigerator. He drank while looking out the window.

But I saw that outside the skyline of Wujiang City, there was a much wider old city.

This old city is filled with old low-rise buildings, abandoned factories, hundreds of meters high garbage mountains, and criss-crossing mud roads.

And further away, there is a barren plain without a trace of green.

Outer city.

Chen Shibo's heart moved.

The outer city is a derivative of the city, also known as a slum, and a derivative phenomenon of this world.

The huge gap between rich and poor, and the caste system between citizens and civilians, together gave birth to this social structure similar to Asan.

This is the private land of gangs and vagrants, as well as a paradise for crime and drugs. If the city belongs to a civilized world with strict order, then the outer city retains the primitive and wild dark jungle.

Every day, citizens lose all their social credit points for various reasons, and what awaits them is to be expelled from the inner city and become a member of the homeless.

Chen Shibo secretly felt lucky in his heart. If he hadn't time-traveled into such a body, he might not even be a citizen. After all, only the heirs of citizens can also become citizens.

Thinking of this, he raised his left hand slightly, and as his consciousness moved, a screen formed by holographic projection appeared in front of his eyes.

[Citizen number: TLxxxx22981028]

[Name: Chen Strobe]

【Sex: Male】

[Occupation: Businessman]

[Date of birth: 2298.10.28 (21 years old)]

[Social credit points: 100 (elementary citizen)]

Yes, it’s this social credit point.

After three days of absorbing memories and exploring the Internet, he had a rough idea of ​​what the world looked like.

After becoming a citizen class, the Federation will issue 100 social credit points to each person. This credit point represents the value of social credibility and social contribution. Not only that, it can also be exchanged for money.

With 1 social credit point, you can get a loan of 10,000 Thai dollars. As long as you repay the loan on time, there will be no deductions.

It doesn't matter if you can't afford it, but 1 social credit point will be deducted until all 100 social credit points are deducted, then you will fall back from the citizen class back to the civilian class.

In addition, social credit points will also be deducted for crimes.

If you want to increase your social credit points, you can't just get it with just money. Generally speaking, you have to donate 100 million Thai dollars to the federal government to get 1 social credit point.

It's just that few people would do it in such a stupid way.

Most people's social class rises through scientific research, artistic contributions, etc. For example, a scientist who studies medicine can obtain dozens or even hundreds of social contribution points by developing a new drug for a certain disease. An artist can earn dozens or even hundreds of social contribution points. , thinkers are almost the same.

Ordinary citizens can also obtain contribution points by making contributions to society, such as volunteering for justice, serving as teachers, doctors, or participating in special federal activities, etc. However, the contribution points obtained are much less, usually one or two years. To get a little bit.

Among them, 100 social contribution points is an elementary citizen, 200 points is an intermediate citizen, 300 points can be promoted to a high level, and if you reach 500 points, you can obtain a knighthood.

The title cannot be hereditary, but it will provide more social benefits, and it also has the qualifications to run for union president, provincial executive officer, continental executive officer, and even higher-level federal positions.

Ten minutes later, the silhouette of another city appeared in front of the maglev vehicle.

As a provincial capital city, Tianji City is obviously more majestic and vast, with high-rise buildings like works of art standing shoulder to shoulder, like an endless crystal jungle.

As the city quickly drew closer, Chen Shibo also saw the existence of the outer city on the edge of the city. Apparently this was the case throughout the federation.

The city enjoys the first resources, while the remaining scraps and city garbage are digested by the slums outside the city. The whole world has been divided into two distinct extremes.

One end is heaven, the other end is hell.

Without having time to think about it, the maglev vehicle had already crossed a distance of tens of kilometers, connecting from the high-speed ring rail outside the city to the ring rail inside the city, and at the same time began to reduce its speed.

Along the way, there are countless high-rise buildings that look like works of art. Between the high-rise buildings are dozens of winding inner city rails. In addition, maglev cars are constantly passing by, making it noisy, noisy, and feasting.

This is also a dreamy city of the future.

In the center of the city, four buildings stood tall, including the high-rise buildings of the three major chaebols, including the Chen family. The one in the center was the branch building of a company called Harmony Mining Group.

The Chen family is indeed powerful. There are only three top chaebols in the entire Tianji Province, and the Chen family is one of them. However, above the Chen family, there are naturally larger financial oligarchs.

The person who coordinates dozens of provinces and regions, including Tianji Province, is the legendary world-class giant—Harmony Mining Company.

This company occupies 30% of the shares of Tiandao Network Technology, while the Chen family itself only holds 35%. The reason why the Chen family can still control Tiandao Network Technology is simply because Harmony Mining Company needs a Just a pawn.

Strictly speaking, the three major chaebols in Tianji Province are just pawns of the Harmony Mining Group.

"Harmony Mining Group Company - a T0-level giant in the Federation of Terra. Its main business covers construction, space construction, military construction, security, aerospace, space energy exploration and mining, military weapons research and development and sales, and its business scope covers the entire solar system."

Information about Harmony Mining Company flashed through his mind, but Chen Shibo suddenly discovered that if the Chen family were in his own world, they would probably be among the top business families in the world, and even Apple would dare to touch them.

But in this world, he is just a dog of Harmony Mining Company.

As for the Terra Federation, there are nearly ten world-class giants like Harmony Mining Company.
