Chapter 576: The Red Flame Horned Man Exam

In this era, science is free. Except for some "black shell technology" that needs strong supervision, the rest are in a state of laissez-faire. Moreover, a whole set of honor incentive system has also replaced the original economic system.

This kind of free scientific research has brought very strong vitality.

Of course, government departments will also formulate some technologies that need to be developed as task indicators. These key technologies, including industry, agriculture, biology, military and other aspects, are like the main trunk of a big tree, which will connect most things.

And now that society has developed, the market-oriented economy no longer exists, but the planned economy is the majority. In particular, some large-scale projects are plans within plans.

The power of planning is huge. To make a simple analogy, in the process of building a new mothership, under the strong call of the government, the entire society was quickly mobilized, and the vast majority of the population would also take action. This also shows the cohesion of a civilization.

In normal times, "big data" records all aspects of life. What people need, what they want, and how much resources they need to consume are clear at a glance under the role of big data, and of course corresponding plans can be formulated.

Such a transparent society not only avoids the rigidity brought by the original planned economy, but also saves resources and reduces waste as much as possible.

…

The spacecraft quickly entered the superluminal state, and time passed quickly. There was nothing special in the process. What should be developed was developed, and what should be educated was educated. Whether it is the new human beings or the Chiyanjiao people, they are all fighting for their own beautiful tomorrow.

One year, two years, three years...

Ten years have passed...

In the entire universe, it is just a blink of an eye.

The new human beings have not changed much, but in these ten years, for the relatively backward Chiyanjiao people, there have been earth-shaking changes... After the establishment of the country, it began to stabilize slowly.

The most important thing is that talents have finally begun to appear!

Jerabi of the Red Flame Country is outside the spacecraft, trying to do a routine inspection of the "Home".

Only when standing outside can you find that your spacecraft is so huge, so complex and sophisticated, but as huge as the "Home", it is only a small part of the real mothership "Future".

"The upper civilization is really too powerful..." He was a little excited.

Taking advantage of the time when the spacecraft is repairing, this Chiyanjiao man is taking the professional qualification examination for "low-level mechanical repairman".

Every year when the Future spacecraft sails, it will stop to correct the route and perform small-scale maintenance for a period of time, so there is only one chance for such an examination a year. Under superluminal navigation, no one is allowed to go out.

After eighteen years of study, Jerabi has passed all six theoretical examinations and the other two manual repair examinations, so this field test is the last hurdle.

As long as he passes, he can get the coveted position of "low-level mechanical repairman". !

He deeply sighed at the power and wealth of the "upper civilization", and at the same time, he really wanted to get this position.

In order to get better treatment, for his family, and for himself, he has been preparing for this exam for a long time, and he must pass it!

"…It's just a basic exam, but it's already so difficult. I wonder what those intermediate or senior repairmen, and even more difficult engineers, are like?" Jerabi wondered curiously, "I still have to study harder."

Well, even after eighteen years of tireless teaching, there are only 13 people in the entire Chiyanjiao civilization who can get the title of "low-level mechanical repairman".

There are only 17 people who can get the title of "low-level soldier". All kinds of miscellaneous titles add up to no more than one hundred.

After all, the new humans are already at the level of interstellar civilization. They don't want good-for-nothings, but elites, so the standards are set more strictly.

These positions, on Earth, are all at the level of astronauts, requiring not only manual skills, but also a lot of mechanical knowledge, adaptability and tenacious psychological qualities. These conditions are indispensable.

After so many years of publicity, for the Chiyanjiao people, being able to serve the upper civilization not only can obtain the national strategic item "Star Coin", but also improve the treatment of the whole family, and it is a great honor!

These things have been written into elementary and junior high school textbooks...

The exam has begun.

He took a long breath, stopped thinking about it, and started his space walk with a lot of tools. These devices together are twice as big as the whole person. They are not the most advanced equipment, mostly manual instruments, but they can also better test the level of the repairman.

The first thing to be repaired is a simple astronomical observation device, which is broken and needs to replace several parts.

Jerabi moved the electromagnetic generator lightly and approached.

He felt that his carbon nano clothes were expanding rapidly due to the air pressure, just like a balloon. This uncomfortable expansion gave him an inexplicable sense of panic.

"Don't be afraid, this is normal." Jerabi comforted himself.

The psychological impact is slowly increasing during the work process...Maintenance in space is very difficult, and it is completely different from areas with gravity. Every step is very slow. He began to get anxious.

He had experienced the vast universe in the observatory, but he had never really walked out of the spacecraft. This time he came to the space, but he was a little at a loss, and gradually felt the infinite oppression brought by the universe.

The thin nano clothes could not bring enough sense of security. He wore an ordinary helmet on his head, without too complicated protective equipment. Through a layer of gloves, he could even feel the cold surface of the spacecraft.

It was probably... a temperature of more than 100 degrees below zero.

The physiological structure of the Chiyanjiao people means that even if they don’t wear protective clothing, they can survive in the universe for a long time, but it doesn’t mean that they won’t be afraid psychologically.

It’s empty, too empty, so empty that it’s unimaginable!

The increase in knowledge means that they are not as ignorant as before, and they really know the fear of the universe.

A random high-speed meteorite can easily penetrate their bodies; if the wound is cut, the blood will evaporate quickly, and the whole person will quickly turn into a mummy!

After just a few hours, Jerabi felt his blood rushing to his head, and he had some strange hallucinations.

"No, it's not a physical problem, but a psychological one..."

This is the inherent mentality of ordinary people. If you really drift out into the dark and boundless universe, and get farther and farther away from your mothership, what kind of fear will you have?

Will you die?

How long will it take to die?

Will you become a mummy, floating for tens of thousands of years, hundreds of millions of years, or even billions of years? Just face the eternal darkness like this?

This feeling of cosmic phobia made his heartbeat start to accelerate. Jerabi quickly tightened the carbon nanorope on his clothes and shook his head heavily to make himself sober.

The work continued, there was no sound, and the indicator lights on the surface of the spacecraft were also very dim... Only some machines were there to accompany him. It was really uncomfortable to experience the vastness of the universe alone.

Jerabi could only concentrate and work harder. As long as he devoted himself to his work, he could forget these things.
