Everything is to ensure that future generations of humans are not so naive and foolish!

At this moment, Lin Feng was silently thanking Bohr, the ETO wallbreaker, for reminding him; otherwise, Lin Feng would not have noticed the actions of various countries that contradicted his plans.

In order to maintain its own advantage, it deliberately ignores virtual education for children in third-world countries, under the guise of "stabilizing the world order".

"Wallfacer Feng Taylor, the Trisolarans' technology far surpasses ours. You should put away your arrogance and stop comparing our technology with the Trisolarans' attack methods," the Swedish representative retorted to Lin Feng.

Lin Feng responded, "That's still more robust than a space city. Swedish representative, do you think those metal plates in a space city can compare to the Earth's strata in terms of strength? If a space city is destroyed, the debris will fly everywhere. If a factory on Earth is destroyed, at least the debris can be repaired by manpower."

Chapter 69: Exchanging their views

They discussed a lot of things, but the focus of the meeting had shifted from helping third-world countries develop faster to the 'planetary factory'.

For example, how to more rationally plan industrial layouts underground so that industrial production can be unaffected and with minimal pollution.

Lin Feng waited until these people's bickering was almost over before bringing up the issue of virtual education again.

"Now you have no objections to the children's education, right? The virtual world requires very few resources to achieve a high level of education, which is beneficial to any country."

"Don't forget, everyone. Centuries from now, the Trisolaran fleet will arrive in the solar system. At that time, all the interests you are fighting for now will be completely destroyed. What's the point of you clinging to these technologies?"

"Only by abandoning our old ideas can we move forward with great strides. We cannot become sinners in history," Lin Feng said solemnly.

After exchanging views, the representatives of the five permanent members of the Security Council expressed their opinions to the rotating chair, who then answered Lin Feng's questions.

"Wallfacer Feng Taylor, your proposal has been adopted. The specific implementation details will be discussed and planned by the Planetary Defense Council."

At this point, the representatives from various countries were no longer interested in virtual education; they were more concerned with how many spaceships the planetary factories they were discussing could produce in a day, and how much material resources the space city clusters could extract from the planets in a day.

Lin Feng only put forward a concept; whether it can be implemented depends on the capabilities of each country.

Of course, if that's not possible, then it's time for Lin Feng to pass away.

This kind of fundamental error affects the very foundation of human civilization and may even impact the combat effectiveness of human fleets centuries from now.

It is not excessive to pay for such a mistake with one's life.

Lin Feng was somewhat displeased, after all, he still valued his life very much, but in order to solve the problem of virtual education, he still accepted it.

If the issue of human thought could be resolved, Luo Ji would probably be in a better position at that time.

Just as Lin Feng thought the meeting was about to end, the words of the rotating chairman of the PDC caused his expression to change slightly.

"Regarding a few other matters, we hope you can provide an explanation to PDC: why are you trying to bypass us to implement your ideas?"

"This is part of the plan, I don't need to answer," Lin Feng replied somewhat guiltily.

The rotating chairman said, "PDC has the right to ask the Wallfacers to reveal some details of the plan."

Lin Feng himself was aware that he had overstepped his authority in this matter.

PDC can tolerate some of the Wallfacers' crazy plans, but it cannot allow the Wallfacers' rights to spiral out of control.

This is the bottom line!

"That was reckless," Lin Feng sighed inwardly.

“Because I don’t think you will agree. My idea will harm the interests of many people, and these people will hinder the implementation of my plan. Children in the Third World need the same education, and humanity needs to go all out,” Lin Feng explained.

"So, is it true that the ETO Wallbreaker revealed your escape plan?" the rotating chairman asked again.

It was less of an inquiry and more of an interrogation; escapism had to be eradicated because humanity needed to unite to fight the Trisolarans.

Lin Feng was naturally aware of the implications.

But this kind of thing can't be explained just by trying, especially since he's a Wallfacer.

Lin Feng simply stopped explaining.

"...It depends on what you think. I can't explain this. Whether you believe it or not is your choice, not mine. I have no right to control your thoughts."

“But you should know that escapism is strictly prohibited! It would undermine the unity of humanity today!” the Spanish representative accused.

Humanity now needs to go all out to fight the Trisolarans; we can't all cooperate to prepare for resistance, and you just ran away first.

How can we fight a space war with the Trisolarans in this way?

Everyone was thinking about escaping; wouldn't the battle against the Trisolarans collapse at the first sign of trouble?

If we're talking about leaving some kind of fire for humanity, why is it you who left it, and not me?

These problems have led to escapism being unpopular in many countries today.

"Then I'll tell you that virtual worlds, space cities, and space farms have absolutely nothing to do with escapism; they're all conceived for the future victory of humanity. Would you believe me then?" Lin Feng glared at the Spanish representative.

Lin Feng looked at the representatives from various countries and continued, "You believe everything ETO says, and then you give up on building space cities? You just rely on Earth's resources to build and maintain a space fleet? Virtual world education and food from space farms are clearly beneficial to humanity, and most importantly, these things are not anti-human!"

"According to your logic, we might as well dismantle the space elevator, forget about building any space fleet, and everyone should just stay on Earth and wait to die!"

That's what he said on the surface, but Lin Feng actually thought the opposite, and was even considering how to leave Zhang Beihai with some surprises.

There was no way around it; for Lin Feng, who had read the original novel, the act of humans cannibalizing each other was as shocking as a nuclear explosion.

Although this was an unavoidable behavior, it was the original author's way of letting the characters and readers in the book understand how humanity completes its transformation.

But Lin Feng just couldn't accept it.

The fleeing humans who have escaped into the sea of ​​stars have encountered many hardships, and they have had many opportunities to be tempered. Lin Feng thought of helping the fleeing humans solve the problems they could see.

I don't ask for anything, I just want to have a clear conscience.

……

"Phew... This is really tiring..."

Lin Feng muttered to himself as he left the meeting with PDC.

He wasn't physically tired, but mentally exhausted. It was something as simple as changing human thought, but he'd made it so complicated.

"It's really not easy that the most troublesome group of people finally relented."

"However, given their attitude, if I dare to do that again, I'm probably finished..."

His attempt to avoid the PDC this time seems to have touched a nerve with the PDC, provoking a strong reaction from them.

Those in power all hate anything that gets out of their control, especially dangerous power like that of a Wallfacer. If Lin Feng dares to do this again, he'll probably be 'accidentally' killed.

Lin Feng thought for a moment and then called over a maid.

"Edith, I know you have a vast network of connections. Could you help me get in touch with some trustworthy infrastructure companies?"

"What are you planning to do?" the maid asked.

Lin Feng said, "The PDC has already communicated about construction assistance to third-world countries. However, I don't think all countries are reliable and will obediently follow our arrangements. Therefore, we plan to find a reliable infrastructure company to help these countries build their infrastructure."

The Earth is so big, there are bound to be plenty of people who embezzle public funds, and there are all sorts of other messy reasons. Lin Feng doesn't want to see all this aid go to waste.

At Lin Feng's request, the maid suggested, "For infrastructure, you can actually contact China directly; they would be very happy to help."

Lin Feng paused for a moment, then nodded.

"...That's true."

Chapter 70 Am I a terrifying person?

With the popularization and application of the virtual world, the vast majority of people choose to stay in their home gaming pods.

This has led to a significant decline in the real economy. Walking through the once bustling streets, one can now only see scattered passersby and delivery and takeout vehicles traveling on the road.

This street scene inevitably evokes a sense of desolation.

"Oh, the long-lost freedom..."

As Lin Feng walked, he opened his arms wide, as if he wanted to embrace the whole world.

The strange posture drew the attention of many passersby, who pointed and whispered. Some even took out their phones to take pictures and post them online.

Even the most unrestrained person would restrain themselves to some extent at this point, considering their reputation, since social death is not a hurdle that can be easily overcome.

Lin Feng didn't mind at all, and he spoke enthusiastically to the maid accompanying him.

"Edith, I have a very subtle feeling right now, like the refreshing feeling of finally taking a good bath after ten years."

“I’m sorry, I don’t know how to answer that question, but I suggest you consult a psychologist. I’m a little worried about your mental health,” the maid Edith suggested.

With a robot double, Lin Feng could finally roam freely in the outside world again.

There's no need to worry about ETO's assassination attempts anymore, because the user's body is well protected, and if the Stand is destroyed, a new one can be created.

Lin Feng finally regained some of the right he once had to walk in the sunlight.

Hearing the maid's suggestion, Lin Feng curled his lip and said, "I don't need any psychologist. Those mind-reading guys will only affect my work."

"Psychotherapists can't read minds..." the maid whispered a reminder.

Lin Feng replied confidently, "That's not important. The point is that it's been a long time since I've felt so safe and confident walking down the street without worrying about an ETO member suddenly jumping out and killing me. Can you understand how I feel right now?"

“I understand you,” the maid Edith nodded.

"Yeah, right!" the maid thought to herself. She could understand a prisoner finally breaking free of his shackles, but she couldn't understand the true thoughts of a Wallfacer.

The longer Edith interacted with him, the less she understood the Wallfacer, Feng Taylor.

"We've wandered around for enough time, let's go."

Lin Feng stopped and turned to Edith.

"Setting off? Where do you plan to go?"

Edith was taken aback. She had assumed that Lin Feng had come out simply to relax, as that was Lin Feng's usual way of doing things.

Lin Feng said, "Go and see that reporter I entrusted with this important task. To be honest, I'm a little worried about him. After all, he has nothing but passion for children."

“He really likes to show off. I told him that if he was unsure about something, he could ask me, but he never contacted me once.”

Lin Feng sighed. He didn't believe that Camon Stock wouldn't encounter difficulties at work; in fact, he might even face life-threatening situations.

This world has never been gentle. People who value interests are not kind enough to simply give up their interests when asked to do so.

Even if they ultimately have to give up their interests, they will try every means to gain as much as possible; reality is not a fairy tale.

Knowing this, when Lin Feng assigned Stock to other countries, he told Stock that he would take care of anything that happened and that he could rest assured to handle things well.

However, so much time has passed and Stock has never asked Lin Feng for help, yet he has gotten everything done, which inevitably makes Lin Feng suspicious.
