The Wallfacer: Everyone wants to break through my wall.

Chapter 297 Everything is for the sake of profit

Since the radio deterrence approach has been blocked, Lin Feng will have to resort to other methods if he wants to obtain the atomization technology from the Three-Body Problem.

Based on the behavior of countries on Earth, if one country is eager to engage in diplomacy with another, but that other country refuses to do so.

At this point, you can choose to support the opposition forces within that country, let the opposition forces take power, and then engage in diplomacy with that country.

When Lin Feng learned that the Trisolaran civilization had relocated from its home planet but left some Trisolarans on it, he knew that his opportunity had arrived.

Although the Trisolarans have transparent minds and no secrets, this biological characteristic is too good for the ruling class. Rebellious thoughts are easily discovered, so the ruling structure of the Trisolaran civilization is very stable.

However, this does not mean absolute stability. Unless there is complete unity of thought and consciousness, differences will inevitably exist.

For example, based on the desire for the continuation of civilization, some Trisolarans hope to conquer the solar system and exterminate all humans in it, while others, like Haruhi Suzumiya, hope that two civilizations that were born close to each other can merge into one. Thus, differences arise, and Trisolarans with different ideas look at each other as if they are idiots.

Because of the inevitable differences in ideas among different individuals, Lin Feng formulated a plan targeting the Trisolaran home planet with 'continuation of civilization' as its core.

The continuation of civilization is the core interest of the Trisolarans that they absolutely cannot shake. However, ever since Lin Feng bluntly stated that "light-speed warp spaceships are also doomed," the Trisolarans have lost confidence in light-speed warp spaceships.

After the Trisolaran civilization began its escape, all Trisolarans must have had this concern in their minds: could the Trisolaran civilization really escape successfully and continue smoothly?

In order for civilization to continue, it is the most rational choice not to put all your eggs in one basket. The continuation of the Trisolaran civilization cannot be entirely dependent on light-speed warp drive spaceships.

This is one of the foundations of the human-trisolaran alliance. Faced with an urgent crisis, the Trisolarans will take a variety of options in order to continue their civilization.

The Trisolarans are transparent in their thinking. Trisolarans on the run will generally not escape the control of the decision-making level, or at least they will not go against the decision. However, this is not necessarily the case for the Trisolarans who remain on their home planet. The departure of the decision-making level means that their influence over the remaining Trisolarans on the home planet is declining.

Even the most ruthless Trisolarans would harbor resentment at being abandoned by civilization. They might not resent the decision to abandon them, but they would certainly complain that the decision-makers were incompetent.

For example, they complain that the decision-makers didn't act like idiots and speak their minds when the Swordholder broadcast the threat, or that they didn't know how to lie and pretend the other party agreed to the conditions, thus buying the civilization more time to build light-speed spaceships. With more light-speed spaceships, they might not have had to be sacrificed.

The breakthroughs achieved by the Taylor series in atomic research became the final straw, signaling that the Sophons' blockade of human scientific research would gradually be broken.

The fundamental failure of the mission is no small matter. This mission was issued to the Trisolarans on their home planet by the decision-making body, which means that the Trisolaran leadership has failed in its decision-making.

For the past two centuries, the decision-makers have been making miscalculations regarding a series of issues, including the ETO, the multi-deterrence system, and the Swordholder broadcast. Now, the Sophon blockade mission has also failed, making it difficult for the Trisolarans left on their home planet to give the decision-makers more confidence.

Are the decision-making elites really that incompetent?

With capabilities like yours, how could the Trisolaran civilization have continued to exist smoothly in the universe?

If you had been a little more capable, would the Swordholder broadcasting the Trisolaran system have been avoided?

The determination to ensure the continuation of civilization remains unchanged, but the loss of confidence in the decision-making level will inevitably lead to the birth of a new Trisolaran regime on the Trisolaran home planet.

Try to imagine that you are a Trisolaran, willing to go through fire and water for the continuation of civilization, giving everything you have, only to find that the higher-ups are a bunch of incompetent fools, and that the civilization might even be in danger because they are so useless.

A group of good-for-nothings will hardly survive in the Dark Forest; they will most likely not live long. In this situation, if you want to save civilization, what should you do?

The natural solution would be to eliminate the current leadership and install capable Trisolarans in their place. However, since the decision-making body has already fled, the previous steps have been skipped, and a new decision-making body has been established, allowing capable individuals to turn the tide.

Thus, the rebellion naturally occurred on the Trisolaran home planet, a result of the intertwining of chance and inevitability.

Of course, the rebellion of the Trisolaran homeworld has no binding force on the matter of forming an alliance with humanity.

If Lin Feng hadn't gone on vacation to Earth, the new Trisolaran regime might not have thought of forming an alliance with humanity.

It was precisely because of Lin Feng's constant hints through his actions that the new regime on the Trisolaran homeworld began to consider this possibility. The interactions between Liang Gong, Lin Feng, and Edith gave this new regime a glimpse of another possibility.

Of course, this is only one aspect. Another reason is that the concepts of micro-level and non-existence were all proposed by Lin Feng. The new regime wanted to take the atomization route, but it was afraid that Lin Feng would set traps on this path, so it deliberately concealed something and did not explain it.

For the continuation of civilization, an alliance with the Taylor system became necessary.

Everything is done for the sake of profit.

……

When Davis announced the alliance between the new Trisolaran regime and the Taylor faction to the core members of the Taylor faction, their reactions were exactly the same as, or even more extreme than, Davis's when he first learned the news.

"real or fake?!"

Ding Yi's pipe fell out of his mouth, but before he could react, he stared wide-eyed at Davis in disbelief.

The Trisolarans have actually formed an alliance with humanity?!

Davis scanned the crowd and said seriously, "Mr. Taylor instructed that this matter should not be publicized for the time being."

“It’s difficult to keep it a secret forever; the news will leak out sooner or later,” a core member of the Taylor faction said, frowning.

Without absolute information blockade, it's only a matter of time before news from the Taylor faction reaches other human regimes.

Davis said, "But at least it can't be leaked before the atomization research is successful. That's what Mr. Taylor meant; he doesn't want too many variables in his plans."

Everyone felt a chill run down their spines. The shock that had initially struck many at the alliance between the Trisolarans and humanity vanished, replaced by a resolute determination to carry out the Maple Taylor Plan.

"What are Mr. Taylor's next plans?" someone asked.

Davis said, "We will receive the atomization-related technologies from the Trisolaran civilization, complete atomization research, then atomize all of humanity and escape into the universe."

Chapter 298 The majority are always brainless

The Taylor Group headquarters, Laboratory 277, is a newly established laboratory whose members are all research talents transferred from various research institutes.

However, what puzzled these researchers was that their reassignment orders did not specify what they were assigned to this laboratory to research; they only stated the location of the reassignment.

At first, they thought there was a problem with the allocation system, so they didn't take it seriously. It wasn't until they contacted other people and learned about the situation that they realized their allocation this time was unusual.

They later discovered that even the director of the laboratory was temporarily transferred, which undoubtedly made the transfer even more mysterious and greatly stimulated the curiosity of these scientific researchers, leading to various speculations.

It wasn't until they saw the materials that Director Frando Finn showed them that they understood why this arrangement had been made.

A wealth of readily available physical experimental data was presented to them. In addition to physical data, there were also physical formulas. Even more astonishingly, they actually saw the industrial technology that allowed particles to unfold into two dimensions.

That's right, it's industrial technology, not technical principles. Technical principles are just principles, not the same as manufacturing technology. Just like knowing nuclear fission doesn't mean you can make an atomic bomb; that requires a lot of physical experimental parameters as a foundation.

Industrial technology encompasses all the technical principles, related experimental data, physical parameters, and so on, all of which are provided together.

No one present was a fool. People who are capable of scientific research are not quick-witted. They could tell that this information seemed to come from The Three-Body Problem.

"Frando, where did you get all this?!"

The newly appointed deputy director looked at the director, Frondo Finn, with suspicion and uncertainty.

He and Frondo were close friends, and they often went out for drinks and discussed research directions in their spare time. But today, no matter how he looked at his old friend, he felt extremely unfamiliar.

Ignoring the way his friend was looking at him like he was an alien, Flandre spoke up.

"Xilan, you don't have enough authority. Don't ask so many questions. You need to read all of these materials within a week. This is an order. After you finish reading them, you will begin the research on atomization immediately."

The words "insufficient permissions" indicated the source of this information. Although the researchers present were quite curious about how the Taylor system obtained this information and technology from the Trisolarans, they did not ask any further questions.

Some of the researchers frowned and began to think deeply.

"So fast? Our industrial base is not up to par, and the precision of our machining is insufficient. It will take some time to develop precision machining down to the atomic nucleus."

To build an atomic bomb, it's not enough to just know the principle of nuclear fission; you also need supporting industrial facilities, such as centrifuges for purifying highly concentrated U235.

The research and design of these industrial facilities obviously require time and a large amount of experimental data.

These things are not in the data provided by the Trisolarans; humanity will have to research and develop them on its own.

Philo stroked his chin thoughtfully and replied, "That's no problem. Humans at the current micro-nano scale can manufacture it. They have a microscopic advantage. We only need to provide the technical blueprints."

Microscopic humans have a microscopic advantage. For humans, it would require complex industrial processes to separate a single molecule, but microscopic humans can simply pull it apart with a forceful twist. To them, molecules are like Lego bricks, easy to manipulate.

"Once humanity completes atomization, will it mean the start of a great escape from the sun's ascent?" Some researchers wondered.

The execution of the Sunrise Project would mean that humanity would detonate the sun.

The other person shook his head and replied, "That's not necessarily true. Accelerating an atom to near the speed of light is a very easy thing. Even without detonating the sun, a great escape could be achieved."

Just as these researchers were getting to know each other through casual conversation, Director Frando interrupted their conversation.

Frando said, "Gentlemen, let me add something. Starting today, this research institute will be closed, and everyone will be subject to the highest level of confidentiality requirements and will not be allowed to have any contact with the outside world."

The group of researchers looked at each other, somewhat puzzled by the arrangement.

Atomization is not a military technology, but a technology to save civilization, yet it is being kept secret from humanity. Is someone trying to stop atomization research?

It's probably impossible, right?

The researchers felt that it was completely self-defeating and that only a fool would choose to do such a thing.

Philo, who was in the crowd, couldn't understand this, so she asked Flandre directly.

"Why? Humans can work down to the atomic level, which is incredibly exciting. Shouldn't we announce it immediately?"

"Don't question it. This is part of Mr. Taylor's plan. The purpose of the Taylor Group is to unconditionally carry out his orders." Flandre didn't explain much. Unlike these young people, he understood the reasons behind the higher-ups' arrangement.

There are too many humans in the solar system. With such a huge population, isn't it normal for some brainless people to emerge?

These mindless people gather together through the internet, creating a mass effect that also makes some slightly more intelligent people lose their minds. After a wave of public opinion manipulation, even if there is no real impact, it will definitely disgust people.

It would be better to wait until the atomization research is completed before making it public.

The Taylor faction has adopted the highest level of secrecy regarding the establishment of diplomatic relations with the new Trisolaran regime and the ongoing atomization research.

However, nothing stays secret forever. For example, there are second-generation ETOs who infiltrated human society and learned about the Trisolaran homeworld from the original Trisolaran regime.

It was only after the establishment of the new regime that the original Trisolaran regime could no longer give ETO more trust that they informed the second-generation ETO about what had happened on the Trisolaran homeworld. Otherwise, Lin Feng's plan would probably not have succeeded so easily.

In an attempt to salvage the situation, the second-generation ETO obtained detailed information about the Taylor lineage and the new Trisolaran regime from the original Trisolaran regime and silently disseminated it across the internet.

Other human political entities initially treated it as a rumor and didn't take it too seriously. They were only slightly concerned with debunking the rumor, but they suddenly couldn't sit still anymore.

Because it was true, after it was confirmed, all sorts of artistic embellishments emerged, such as the Taylor faction colluding with the Trisolaran civilization, the Taylor faction willingly becoming Trisolaran lackeys for its own survival, and the Taylor faction becoming the largest ETO organization in human history.

The Taylor Group suddenly became like rats in the street, hated by everyone.

Behind this are mindless individuals at the bottom, as well as those at the top who are pushing things along. They are forcing the Taylor faction to make a statement, to send a representative to speak out. In these extraordinary times, it's not right to keep everything hidden.

As expected, Lin Feng was summoned to the Solar System Fleet Joint Meeting.

Chapter 299 The Atomization Age of Humanity

The Space Force representative said with dissatisfaction, "Mr. Taylor, could you explain your purpose in doing this? To form an alliance with the Trisolarans and obtain a large amount of scientific and technological information from them is such an important matter, yet you have chosen to deliberately conceal it from humanity."

Human civilization is at a critical juncture, and you're still trying to play hide-and-seek? That's going too far.

Having seen many big scenes, Lin Feng naturally wouldn't have any psychological reaction to such accusations from a moral high ground.

He answered calmly, "Because I find it troublesome. The more people know, the more ideas there will be. Human nature is very complicated. At that time, a lot of trouble will definitely arise within humanity because of the alliance between the Trisolarans and the Taylor system, such as rumors accusing the Taylor system of betraying civilization and joining the Trisolarans. I have lived for two centuries and I know the nature of humanity all too well."

"I planned to announce all of this after the atomization research was completed; it was all part of the plan."
