Chapter 20 Party

The gathering place for "Three-Body" netizens is a secluded small coffee shop. In Wang Miao's impression, gatherings of game netizens in this era are all lively events with large numbers of people, but this time only seven people came, including himself.

Individuals, and those six, like myself, do not look like game enthusiasts no matter how you look at them. There are only two younger ones, the other three, including a lady, are all middle-aged, and there is an old man who looks like

He is sixty or seventy years old.

Wang Miao originally thought that everyone would have a lively discussion about "The Three-Body Problem" as soon as they met, but now he found that he was wrong. The weird and far-reaching connotation of "The Three-Body Problem" has had a profound psychological impact on its participants, making

It was difficult for everyone, including Wang Miao himself, to talk about it easily. Everyone simply introduced themselves to each other. The old man took out a very delicate pipe, filled it with tobacco, started smoking, and walked to the wall.

to admire the oil paintings on the wall. Others sat quietly waiting for the arrival of the party organizers, who all arrived early.

In fact, Wang Miao already knew two of these six people. The old man with gray hair and childlike face was a famous scholar, famous for giving modern scientific connotation to Eastern philosophy. The lady in weird clothes was a famous writer and a rare

She is a novelist with an avant-garde style but has many readers. You can start reading her books from any page. The other four are two middle-aged people and one is the vice president of the largest software company in the country (dressed simply and casually,

It cannot be seen at all), the other is a senior leader of the State Power Company; two young people, one is a reporter from a major domestic media, and the other is a doctoral student in science. Wang Miao now realizes that "Three-Body Problem"

"Probably quite a few of the players are social elites like them.

The organizer of the party arrived soon. When Wang Miao saw him, his heartbeat suddenly accelerated. This person turned out to be Pan Han, the number one suspect in killing Shen Yufei. He quietly took out his mobile phone and sent a text message to Da Shi under the table.

"Haha, everyone is here so early!" Pan Han greeted easily, as if nothing had happened. He changed his usual dirty tramp appearance in the media, wearing suits and ties, looking elegant, "You guys

As I imagined, they are all elites. "Three-Body" is prepared for a class like you. Its connotation and artistic conception are difficult for ordinary people to understand; the knowledge required to play it is so high-level and deep.

It is also impossible for ordinary people to have it.”

Wang Miao's text message has been sent: I met Pan Han at Yunhe Cafe in Xicheng District.

Pan Han continued: "Everyone here is an excellent player of "Three-Body Problem", with the best results and very dedicated. I believe that "Three-Body Problem" has become a part of your life."

"It's part of life." said the young doctoral student.

"I came across it by chance on my grandson's computer," the old philosopher said, tilting the handle of his pipe. "The young man played it for a few times and then gave up, saying it was too profound. But I was attracted by it, the profound connotation.

The weird, terrifying and beautiful artistic conception, the logically rigorous world setting, and the massive information and precise details hidden under the simple appearance all fascinate us." Several netizens, including Wang Miao, nodded. At this time Wang

Miao received a text message from Da Shi: We saw him too. He's okay. Do whatever you need to do. Note that you should try to act as extreme as possible in front of them, but don't go too far, otherwise you will pretend to be inappropriate.

"Yes," the female writer nodded in agreement, "from a literary point of view, "The Three-Body Problem" is also outstanding. The rise and fall of two hundred and three civilizations are really exquisite epics."

She mentioned that there were 203 rounds of civilization, while Wang Miao experienced 191 rounds. This convinced Wang Miao once again: "Three-Body" has an independent process for each player.

"I'm really tired of the real world, and The Three-Body Problem has become my second reality," said the young reporter.

"Really?" Pan Han interjected with interest.

"Me too, compared with "The Three-Body Problem", reality is so mediocre and vulgar." said the IT vice president.

"It's a pity, it's just a game." The leader of Guodian Company said.

"Very good." Pan Han nodded, and Wang Miao noticed the excitement in his eyes.

"There is a question that I think we are all eager to know," Wang Miao said.

"I know what it is, but just ask." Pan Han said.

"Is The Three-Body Problem just a game?"

Netizens nodded one after another, obviously this was what they were eager to ask.

Pan Han stood up and said solemnly: "The three-body world is real."

"Where?" several netizens asked in unison.

Pan Han sat down and was silent for a long time before speaking: "Some questions I can answer, some I can't, but if you have a connection with the Trisolaran world, one day all questions will be answered."

"So, does the game show some real elements of the Three-Body World?" the reporter asked.

"First of all, in many civilizations, the dehydration function of Trisolarans is real. In order to cope with the unpredictable natural environment, they can completely drain the water in their bodies at any time and turn it into dry fibrous objects to avoid

A harsh climate that is completely unsuitable for survival.”

"What do Trisolarans look like?"

Pan Han shook his head: "I don't know, I really don't know. In each round of civilization, the appearance of the Trisolarans is completely different. In addition, the game also reflects a real existence in the Trisolaran world: the humanoid computer."

"Ha, I think that is the most untrue!" said the vice president of IT. "I conducted a simple test with hundreds of employees in the company. Even if this idea can be realized, the computing speed of a human-column computer may be faster than that of a single person.

Manual calculations are too slow."

Pan Han showed a mysterious smile and said: "Yes, but if there are 30 million soldiers making up the computer, each of them can wave the black and white flag 100,000 times in one second, and the light cavalry on the bus can run at several times the speed of sound.

Even faster, the result will be different. You just asked about the appearance of the Trisolaran. According to some indications, it is speculated that the appearance of the Trisolaran that constitutes the humanoid computer may be covered with a layer of total reflection mirror. This mirror may be for

Evolved to survive in harsh sunlight conditions, the mirror can change into various shapes. They communicate with each other through the light focused by the mirror. This light language information transmission speed is very fast. This is the human column computer.

The basis for its existence. Of course, this is still a very inefficient machine, but it can indeed complete calculations that humans cannot do by hand. In the three-body world, computers did first appear in the form of human columns, and then they became mechanical and

Electronically."

Pan Han stood up and paced around the backs of the netizens: "What I can tell you now is that as a game, "Three-Body" only uses the human background to simulate the development of the three-body world. This is only for the benefit of the players.

Providing a familiar environment, the real Three-Body World is very different from the game, but the existence of the three suns is real, which is the basis of the natural structure of the Three-Body World."

"It definitely took a lot of effort to develop this game, but its purpose is obviously not to make a profit." said the IT vice president.

"The purpose of the Three-Body game is very simple, which is to gather like-minded people like us," Pan Han said.

"What ambition and what way?" Wang Miao asked, but immediately regretted it and thought carefully about whether his question revealed any hostility.

This question indeed made Pan Han fall silent. He looked at everyone present one by one with meaningful eyes, and said softly: "If Trisolaran civilization is to enter the human world, what is your attitude?"

"I'm very happy," the young reporter first broke the silence and said, "What I've seen over the years has made me disappointed in mankind. Human society is no longer capable of self-improvement and needs the intervention of an external force."

"Agree!" the female writer said loudly. She was very excited and seemed to have finally found an opportunity to vent something. "What is a human being? What an ugly thing. I have been using the scalpel of literature to expose this kind of thing for the first half of my life.

Ugly, now I am tired of even this kind of exposure. I long for Trisolaran civilization to bring true beauty to this world."

Pan Han said nothing, and that excited light lit up in his eyes again.

The old philosopher waved his extinguished pipe and said seriously: "Let's explore this question a little deeper: What is your impression of the Aztec civilization?"

"Dark and bloody, the eerie firelight in the jungle illuminates the blood-flowing pyramid. This is my impression of it." said the female writer.

The philosopher nodded, "Very good, then imagine what impact this civilization would have had on human history if the Spanish had not intervened later?"

"You are confusing right and wrong," the IT vice president pointed at the philosopher and said, "The Spanish who invaded America at that time were just robbers and murderers!"

"Even so, they at least prevented the following things from happening: the Aztecs developed without limit and turned the Americas into a bloody and dark huge empire. At that time, the era of democracy and civilization in the Americas and all mankind would be even later.

arrival, or even not appearing at all. This is the crux of the problem - no matter what the Trisolaran civilization looks like, their arrival is always a boon to the terminally ill human civilization."

"But have you ever thought about it, the Aztec civilization was finally destroyed by Western invaders." The leader of Guodian Company said, while looking around, as if seeing these people for the first time, "The ideas here are very dangerous."

"It's profound!" the doctoral student said, raising a finger and nodding to the philosopher, "I also have this idea, but I don't know how to express it. You said it so well!"

After a period of silence, Pan Han turned to Wang Miao: "The six of them have expressed their attitudes. What about you?"

"I stand on their side." Wang Miao said, pointing to reporters, philosophers and others. He simply answered this sentence.

"Very good." Pan Han said, turning to the vice president of IT and the leaders of Guodian Company, "You two are no longer suitable for this party, nor are you suitable to continue playing the "Three Body" game. Your IDs will be cancelled.

, please leave now. Thank you for coming, please!”

The two stood up and looked at each other, then looked around in confusion, then turned and walked out the door.

Pan Han stretched out his hand to the remaining five people, shook hands with them one by one, and finally said solemnly:

"We are comrades."
Chapter completed!
